American fame and fortune

Fans were stunned, and media reporters frantically took pictures.

At the front of the red carpet, Martin, Leonardo and Nicholson led a docile old cow and walked towards the theater.

Nicholson was wearing sunglasses, grinning from ear to ear, leading the cow on the red carpet and giving it to the director's old buddy. It was the first time in his life, and he thought it was very funny.

Leonardo looked at Martin, thinking that only a bastard could come up with such a unique move.

Martin walked in the front, led the cow to the middle of the red carpet, and waved to the surroundings.

The surrounding fans let out piercing screams.

The reporters who were able to take pictures on both sides of the red carpet kept pressing the shutter of their cameras as if they were crazy.

Leonardo said: "We are going to grab the headlines of the North American entertainment edition."

"Such an interesting thing, we need to do it a few more times." Nicholson took two steps forward and snatched the rein from Martin's hand: "You've got enough limelight, it's time for me to replace you!"

The reins were handed over to Nicholson, and Martin walked towards the place where the Cult of Coke congregation gathered, took a can of Coke from Bruce who followed him, opened it, and held it high at them.

Hundreds of people nearby raised the Coke in their hands and shouted in unison: "The God of Coke, Forever!"

Then, someone shouted: "The leader is mighty!"

Hundreds of people followed and shouted: "The leader is mighty!"

At the gate of the Ryerson Theater, Warner's Daniel said to the producer Graham: "See? This is the leader of the Coke God."

Graham nodded slightly: "There are many supporters."

Daniel added: "As far as this film is concerned, we have done market research and estimates. Martin alone can add more than 5 million US dollars to the film's first-week box office."

Graham has read related reports: "In my personal opinion, among the male stars born in the 1980s, Martin's commercial appeal is the strongest, or at least one of the strongest."

"Martin's value is not only reflected in his commercial appeal." Daniel reminded: "Don't forget, today's plan was first proposed by him."

Seeing the reporters who looked like mad cows, Graham said, "The breaking news has already appeared."

Daniel laughed heartily.

Three bastards, leading a cow, swaggered through the street, approaching the media area and the specially arranged platform in front of the theater.

Al Pacino rubbed his chin and said, "That's not how Leonardo and Nicholson do things."

Robert De Niro said: "It must be Martin." He looked at Scorsese: "Get ready, your guys are bringing you cows."

Scorsese straightened his bow tie and said, "Why not a cow."

On the opposite side, Nicholson sped up a little, and pulled the cow to the opposite side of Scorsese.

A large number of reporters gathered around.

Nicholson said loudly: "A few days ago, you said that you liked to guide the cow performance. The three of us went to buy the most obedient cow overnight. Now, on behalf of the trio, I will officially present a cow to you. You can do it later. Filmed with the cow."

"I accept it." Scorsese took the reins, hugged his old buddy Nicholson, and then greeted Martin and Leonardo: "Come here, take a group photo together."

Martin and Leonardo passed by, and the four of them stood together in front of the background board of the sponsor and took a group photo with Lao Niu.

Scorsese then accepted an interview and said: "This gift is very precious, I will bring it back to the United States, direct it to act, and let three idiots see what it means to be a good actor who obeys the director's command."

After speaking, he himself laughed.

The three of Martin also smiled cheerfully around.

Matt Damon, who had already entered the theater, saw this scene clearly through the glass window. He saw it very thoroughly. Since the shooting in New York, he was excluded from the core of the crew.

The so-called trio was also created by Martin Davis.

Matt Damon can't get into that circle, but he has his own.

"Let's go." He said to the manager next to him, "Let's go into the theater and wait for the screening."

The manager followed up and said, "I just communicated with Graham. The crew has some complaints about your absence from most of the publicity for filming "Bourne Shadow 3", but it's not a big deal."

Matt Damon said: "I'm not the core." He turned to ask: "The crew and Warner Bros. have decided to apply for the Best Supporting Actor nomination for Martin Davis?"

"Yes, it's confirmed." The manager said the information he had heard: "It is said that in order to ensure that he can get nominated, Leonardo gave up the role of this film for the best actor and chose another A role in the film "Blood Diamond."

Matt Damon nodded: "I see."

In the media area, reporters almost surrounded the three of Martin.

Martin was also properly interviewed, and the reporter specifically asked him about this cooperation with Scorsese.

"I experienced life on the ground in the Boston Police Department, which helped me a lot." He said that he was all prepared, so he didn't have to worry about conflicting with other people's speeches: "I like this character very much. Before filming Scorsese Director Si told me that you only need to read the lines in the script, and the rest can be done by yourself.”

Ten minutes later, with the assistance of the crew's publicity and public relations staff, the main creators broke out from the siege of media reporters and walked towards the entrance of the Ryerson Theatre.

"Moo—"

A cow bleats from behind.

When Martin turned his head, the docile old cow was still standing in the crowd, standing out very conspicuously.

It looked helplessly at the person walking away, mooing, as if asking why it was abandoned.

Someone will come and take the cow away, and then it will be sent to the United States.

Scorsese has a ranch, and it's easy to feed a cow.

The red carpet part of the premiere was over. Many Internet media reporters immediately withdrew from the scene, found a temporary office nearby, surfed the Internet through laptops and wireless network cards, and sent out the news and photos of the premiere as quickly as possible.

As soon as the news hit the Internet, it attracted widespread attention.

In the theater hall, the main creators of the crew came to the front row amid applause, and the theater that can accommodate thousands of people was full of seats at this time.

Guests, journalists, critics, columnists and overseas buyers gathered together, and the first ten rows were packed to the brim, accounting for nearly half of the seats.

Ordinary fans make up the other half.

Before sitting down, Scorsese specifically looked at the back. Years of directing career made it difficult for him to make waves in his heart, but he still hoped that the film would have a good result.

Especially at the Oscars.

Abandoning the award-winning biographical films and returning to his best gangster films, Scorsese is ambitious.

Many people say they don't care about the Oscar statuette, but in this industry and in this environment, very few people really don't care.

In Leonardo's words, after being rich, beautiful and having a material foundation, there will definitely be some other pursuits.

Martin sat between Nicholson and Leonardo, moved his hands and feet a little, took out his phone and glanced at it.

There is an unread text message on the phone, and the caller is identified as Robert.

"The ceremony has been done, don't worry."

Martin turned off the phone's sound and vibration, and put it back in his pocket.

The ceremony of begging for the lottery has been persisted in the past few years.

After each use, the fight for roles and movie screenings has always been smooth sailing, and Martin certainly won't give up.

Leonardo suddenly whispered: "According to Warner Bros.' estimates, this film may become my highest-grossing film outside of Titanic."

Martin said: "I remember that you are one of the investors. If you make enough profits, you will invite me out for three days and three nights."

Leonardo asked: "You also brought funds into the group, it seems that the funds come from Asia? Why didn't you see that investor today?"

Martin has learned: "Wu Maoting can enter the United States, but Canada refuses him entry. Pacific Pictures and my studio are receiving him in Los Angeles."

Nicholson looked at Martin and Leonardo at this time, showing the boss's momentum: "It's about to be screened, talk less, be quiet, in my era, you would directly smoke brothers to death like this."

Martin didn't bother to answer and looked at the big screen.

This is a vulgar gangster film full of American street culture, which may be preconceived. Even though he himself participated in the film, Martin still thinks that the Hong Kong version is better.

It may also be that the refreshingness of the Hong Kong version can give people a clean and fashionable, even philosophical, romantic and poetic feeling full of oriental flavor.

Scorsese made this film, probably like the low-level Americans on the street, vulgar, direct and realistic.

From the police to the gangsters, all the staff swear every day.

The characters are unrestrained and lazy.

The two films can be said to be very different in terms of expression and film type.

The Hong Kong version is an elite police and gangster film.

The Departed is a street gangster movie.

The film's heaviest roles are Leonardo and Martin's characters, but the real heart is Nicholson's Frank.

This guy is an absolute genius in acting.

It means that people are old and well-informed, and the Oscar statuettes have enough, so they don't care.

Otherwise, if the crew applied for a Best Supporting Actor nomination for him, in terms of performance and role alone, Martin would definitely stand aside.

Even so, Martin still performed better than Leonardo in the rivalry.

"Don't say that Martin crushed Leo, but Leo paled in front of him." Robert De Niro lowered his voice and said to Al Pacino: "For so many years, Leo has never solved his old problems. .”

El Pacino nodded: "Martin is talented, and his acting skills are smooth and proficient. Although he is not an actor as talented as Nicholson, if he develops well in the future, he may not be worse than you and me."

Robert De Niro said: "This film is very interesting to shoot. Among the works directed by Scorsese, it is the most entertaining."

Al Pacino said: "It's very entertaining, maybe it will help him create a personal box office record."

Like all artistic directors, Martin Scorsese's movie box office revenue is average, and he often has to rely on offline to achieve profitability.

At the end of the film screening, the two protagonists all went on the road of no return as expected.

When Ding Genan shot and killed Colin - Sullivan, the entire film ended.

There was extremely warm applause at the scene.
