American fame and fortune

"This is Barry Mayer, the CEO of Warner Bros."

In the luxurious and spacious banquet hall, Louise took Martin to find the host tonight, and made a special introduction: "This is Alan Horn, the president of Warner Pictures."

Martin politely shook hands with the two and said hello. These two were the head of Warner Bros. in its heyday.

The two shook hands with Martin, and didn't say much. Given Martin's status, it wasn't enough to impress them.

It was Alan Horn's daughter, Cody Horn, who chatted a little more with Martin.

She asked: "I heard that you are promoting a new project. I am also an actor. Do you have any suitable roles for me?"

Martin immediately said: "You will have it when you come, but there may not be many scenes."

Cody Horn handed him a business card: "You can send the character information to my email. If it is suitable, I will let the agent contact your crew."

Martin took the business card and put it away solemnly.

Then follow Louise to other places.

Louise reminded: "She is acting purely for fun, don't take it too seriously."

Martin understood: "The rich lady experiences life? Instead of treating it as her own career like you?"

Louise nodded slightly: "That's it." She stopped suddenly and pointed to the entrance of the banquet hall with her eyes: "Julie and Aniston met, it's interesting."

Martin saw that Julie and Aniston arrived one after another, and the banquet hall was not too big, so it was quite normal to meet them.

Louise, a prodigal, talked nonsense again: "You get them together and help them mediate. I have a small villa, and there is a room with a perspective mirror..."

"I'm a decent man," said Martin.

Near the entrance of the banquet hall, the eyes of Julie and Aniston collided, and neither of them retreated.

Unlike in the past, Aniston did not avoid, but stared at Julie.

With Julie's character, how could she voluntarily back down and walk over to meet Aniston's gaze.

Coming to her, Julie whispered, "Hello, loser."

Bichi's words rushed to Aniston's mouth, but she couldn't say it on this occasion because of her image.

Julie said again: "You lost, in all aspects."

Aniston swallowed the words that turned into anger, and smiled gracefully and confidently: "Until the end, the winner may not be you."

Julie turned around, took a glass of wine from the table next to her, and left alone.

Aniston also took a glass of wine, glanced slightly in the hall, and walked towards Martin.

She came to Martin's side, nodded slightly to Louise, and said to Martin, "I want to talk to you about the script and characters."

Louise's character is also bad, which can be seen in Kelly. She left immediately: "You talk, I see a friend, go say hello."

Martin knew that Aniston was pure nonsense, but a good man has the right principles, but he must know how to cooperate. He asked, "Is there a problem with your character?"

"A little bit." Aniston took a step forward, found that the distance was not close enough, took another step forward, and said: "We are playing a couple, but the age gap between us is a bit big, it's hard to feel , I think we should cultivate a tacit understanding in advance."

Martin said very seriously: "It makes sense."

Aniston reached out her hand naturally and grabbed Martin's arm: "It always feels a little uncoordinated."

Martin, who is such a nice person, took the initiative to cooperate and took a step towards her: "Would this be better?"

Not far away, Julie passed through the crowd, and her eyes fell on the two of them.

Aniston took Martin's arm, and the two were like lovers.

Julie bit her thick lips and gripped the cup tightly, her legs trembling because she was so excited that she couldn't move.

Almost at the same time, Aniston also found Julie.

Seeing her weird expression and her biting lower lip, Aniston raised the corners of her mouth and smiled slightly.

Julie held onto the table with one hand and pressed the other to her chest.

Aniston smiled even more, as if she had won a battle.

At the entrance of the banquet hall, Brad Pitt, who was wearing a beige suit, had just entered when he saw Aniston holding Martin's arm.

He knew that there should be no conflicts in this kind of place, and the slaps in the face of the entire Warner were simply out of sight.

Mene, who was wearing a dark suit, followed out of the banquet hall and came near the elevator. Seeing Pete waiting for the elevator, he simply stood in front of the mirror and pretended to adjust his tie.

Pete got on the elevator and went straight downstairs to leave.

Mene couldn't help being a little disappointed that Pete's mother couldn't be found.

I want to vent my anger on the boss...

The other party didn't give Uncle Mene a chance.

Returning to the banquet hall, Mene waited for a while, saw that there was no one around Martin, and looked for him: "Boss."

Martin patted his arm: "Back?"

Mene nodded: "I can rest for a few days."

Martin called Menet: "Let's go, I'll take you to meet some directors."

He joined Thomas, and together they walked towards the circle of British actors and directors.

Christopher Nolan, with his blonde hair parted, took a dessert for his wife Emma Thomas.

Thomas walked ahead and introduced the two sides.

Nolan shook hands with Martin: "I've seen the arrest warrant and carefully studied the action scenes in it. It's a very cool design."

As for the commercial bragging, Martin is not ambiguous at all: "The moment of war allows us to see a Batman and Bruce Wayne who live in the real world, not just a comic symbol."

Nolan is more modest: "It's not too successful, at best, it's just not a failure."

Martin asked curiously: "I like this film, and the new style you gave Batman. I heard from Warners that Director Nolan, you have plans for the sequel?"

"I have some simple ideas, but I haven't sorted them out systematically yet." Nolan thought that Martin was interested in the role of Bruce Wayne, so he said specifically: "I have already asked Bell to prepare in advance."

Martin asked: "At the end of the opening moment, the Joker's poker appeared. May I ask, is the Joker the villain of the sequel?"

This is very obvious, and Nolan has no need to deny it, saying: "If nothing else happens, the big villain will be the clown."

"I'm very familiar with Nicholson who played the clown," Martin said. "Nicholasson has a natural evil temperament."

Nolan has also seen the gossip about the bastard trio, and said: "Nicholson's performance in 1989 was very good, and that version of the clown also gave me a lot of inspiration."

He didn't want to talk too much, and instead said: "This film is still far away, and I have projects to complete before then."

Martin doesn't go around in circles either. After all, anyone with a discerning eye knows his relationship with Warner Bros.: "The Prestige? I've read Pirist's original novel, the mode of two heroes fighting."

In fact, the Dark Knight continues this pattern, and Batman and the Joker are also duels.

Even the latter plays a more important role.

Nolan is a director, so he guessed when he heard it: "Are you interested in this project?"

Martin said directly: "I like that novel very much and hope to have the opportunity to cooperate."

"You're a little younger." Nolan didn't say it dead. After all, the actor's age is only a part of the consideration when choosing a role, but it's not the key: "You are welcome to come to the crew to audition."

Martin's enough is enough, now the main thing is to be familiar.

While Martin was talking to Nolan, not far away, Mene also chatted with Emma Thomas.

Perhaps it is inherently lethal to middle-aged women. In just a few words, Mene made Emma Thomas laugh non-stop.

Emma Thomas laughed and said: "You are very interesting, no wonder many people say hello."

Mene was surprised: "A lot of people say I am good? Who are they?"

Emma Thomas said: "Don't you know? Those of us who are behind the scenes set up a fixed organization. At the party, many people talked about you."

In the Hollywood circle, the number of women who really control a certain amount of power is actually very small. These people automatically move closer and form a small group.

In this group, there is more than one person who was licked by Uncle Mene to take off.

Mene wasn't embarrassed at all, but surprised: "So I'm so famous!"

Emma tilted her head: "Actually, many people doubt that you are really that good?"

On such occasions, when faced with a female producer, especially when her husband was present, Mei Nei was relatively restrained, and lightly rubbed his lower lip: "It may be a natural advantage, a special talent given to me by God."

Emma Thomas nodded without further investigation.

Compared with those forty or fifty-year-old women in the industry, she can definitely be regarded as a proper female producer.

Most of the time, I am solving my husband's worries.

Seeing that Martin and Nolan had exchanged business cards, Mene said something politely and left here with Martin.

Thomas took a step behind and asked Mene, "What's the catch?"

Menei shook her head: "She's different."

Thomas said softly: "Then don't mess around, focus on stability."

Martin saw Will Smith and turned to Thomas and asked, "I'm a legend?"

Thomas quietly pointed to Alan Horn who was talking to Will Smith: "Last month, he urged Warner Pictures to sign a contract with Will Smith. .”

Martin recognized the situation: "Superstar, I'm still far away."

This is the gap in all-round comprehensive strength.

"Looking at Hollywood, only Leonardo's status can compete with him, and everyone else is worse." Thomas said: "In terms of commercial appeal, even Leonardo is not as good as Will Smith."

Martin knew very well that this was an era when the Emperor of History played shit, and countless people paid for it.

"Work hard, Martin." Thomas finally seized a chance to CPU Martin: "You still have a long way to go."

Martin immediately reversed the CPU: "Our goal is very clear, I will become a super giant, and you will become a senior partner."

Thomas was filled with energy when he heard this.
