American Fame and Fortune Chapter 170

Chapter 170 Give you a little star

Beverly Hills, Jody rode a motorcycle, turned towards the main entrance of the Hilton Hotel, and parked next to the flower bed.

Taking off her helmet and holding up her camera, she happened to see Martin and Annie getting out of the car and walking into the hotel hand in hand.

Jody instinctively pressed the shutter of the camera, thinking: "Don't come out, the couple are going to spend the night together!"

These paparazzi are more anxious than the parties concerned for gossip.

 After waiting for more than half an hour, Martin still did not come out.

Jody found a place to sit down, waiting and thinking about how to write the gossip.

Soon she thought of a suitable title: Martin Davis holds hands with Hollywood princess Anne Hathaway. This is what love should be like...

Jodi is a good and dedicated paparazzi. He not only takes photos, but also sets up a gossip column on an entertainment website. When he sees someone, he will not come out for a while. He takes out his pen and notebook, finds a place under the street lamp, and starts a small talk on the spot according to the idea just now. composition.

 Those who work hard will always be rewarded.

After a while, a tall figure suddenly blocked the light above.

Jody quickly closed the book to prevent her colleagues from plagiarizing her ideas. When she looked up, she saw Bruce's rotten face.

 “What's wrong with you?” she asked.

 Bruce said nothing, and raised his fingers.

Jody packed up his things and followed Bruce into a car.

On the way, she wanted to turn on the recorder again.

Bruce said: "You go back, I'll find someone else."

Jody took out the recorder and dismantled it into parts under Bruce's gaze.

 Bruce opened the car door and got in.

 Jody got into the passenger seat.

Bruce took out a memory card, placed it on the armrest box between the two, and said, "Photos of Martin and Annie in the hotel."

 This was taken by him himself.

Jody nodded, picked it up and put it away. He leaned over Bruce and reached for the zipper of his pants.

Bruce glanced at the mediocre **** lying down, feeling unfazed, and pushed Jody back: "Don't use your bad tricks to harm a good person like me, I won't be corrupted by you guys!"

Jody stood up and looked at Bruce. Compared to the person opposite, she felt inexplicably noble: "What do you want?"

Bruce is not exaggerating: "For a $100 hard-earned fee, the article you write must be inclined to Martin."

Jody took out all the cash he had and gave it all to Bruce: "I will do it."

Bruce counted it and found that there was only more than 80 US dollars, so he didn't care: "Martin won't come out until eight o'clock tomorrow morning. Go back and have a good sleep."

Jodi opened the door and got off the car, walked to the motorcycle alone, put on a helmet and returned to the rented house. However, she did not go to bed immediately. Instead, she worked on the manuscript all night, and sent it to the website column with the photos she took and provided by Bruce.

There were still a lot of photos left, so she called the print media she cooperated with and sold the photos to them.

In the early morning, Laura got up early, picked up the camera, waited by the door, and watched the situation diagonally opposite Annie through the peephole.

After returning from Griffith Observatory last night, Martin stayed in Anne's suite.

 In the middle of the night, Annie sneaked here, sweet and tired. According to her, she was tortured so much by Martin that she hid for a while to rest.

There was movement over there. Laura opened the door a little, stretched out the camera lens, and pointed it over there.

 She practiced several times last night and was familiar with the road.

 The door to Anne's suite opened and Martin came out of the room. Anne, wearing pajamas, chased him to the door from behind.

The two of them were one inside the room and the other outside the door. First they looked at each other affectionately, and then they kissed passionately.

 Laura pressed the camera shutter and captured a photo.

 Martin held Annie's hand: "There is work over there at the studio. I can't accompany you anymore. You take care of yourself."

 Anne came over again and kissed Martin on the face: "Work is important."

 After all, his work is related to her future.

 “I was in a hurry last night.” Martin apologized: “I was not prepared either.”

 Annie's face flushed just right: "You...you performed very well, perfectly."

 Martin smiled: "I'll prepare a special gift for you later."

 Anne couldn't help but be surprised: "Really?"

 Martin nodded: "Of course, a surprise." He glanced at his watch: "I have to go."

Anne leaned against the door frame and watched Martin enter the elevator, turning his head three times step by step.

surprise? What's the surprise? Annie couldn't help but think: A luxury car? Beautiful dove eggs? Or a complete set of luxury jewelry?

The door diagonally opposite opened, Laura popped up and raised the camera in her hand.

 Anne waved her hand and told her to do it quickly. Laura returned to the room and made phone calls to the entertainment media and paparazzi, preparing to sell the photos of Martin leaving Anne's room.

 Anne closed the door, picked up her cell phone, called her agent Maha, and told her agent the latest progress with Martin.

Maha said: "I will talk to Martin's agent directly."

Just like the marriage of two people on the other side of the Pacific is not just a matter between two people, the coming together of two stars is also not a matter between two people.

On the other side, Martin went downstairs, called Lao Bu, and came to the door of the hotel. Bruce just happened to drive the car over.

 Martin got in the car and said, "Go to Warner Bros. Studios."

Bruce drove out of the hotel and simply said: "On the Internet and in entertainment newspapers, there is a lot of news about you and Annie, and they are very popular."

  Martin asked: “What's the reaction been like on the blogs?”

“Your fans are discussing it very enthusiastically and think that you and Anne are a good match.” Bruce paid special attention this morning: “It has attracted a lot of Anne's fans, which is very lively. I probably want you to treat Anne well.”

Martin predicted this. The fan culture on the two sides of the Pacific is different. Stars falling in love here will not have such a big impact on fans.

Of course, there are also crazy fans.

Bruce continued: "Thomas called you, but your phone was turned off and he called me. He said that you and Annie should keep a good rhythm and extend it from one week to ten days. It is best to wait until "The Mountain Has Eyes" is released. If a small part of the popularity is converted into market data, you can make a lot of money.”

 Martin nodded slightly, took out his mobile phone and called Thomas.

 After the call was connected, she said a few words briefly and mentioned an important matter: "Annie's agent, Maha, made an appointment with me for an interview. She said that Anne mentioned it to you."

Martin said: "Anne told me last night, you go and talk to Maha."

Annie simply said last night that the two of them have attracted much attention together, and the agency has specifically contacted her. If she and Martin get together, there are some things that need to be discussed and done.

 Martin certainly agrees.

Just after hanging up the phone with Thomas, Daniel, who is in charge of the promotion of "The Mountain Has Eyes" from Warner Bros., called again and specifically discussed with Martin how the scandal can effectively increase the exposure of "The Mountain Has Eyes".

The relationship between two people seems to be simple, but it involves the interests of all aspects.

The blues people are numb: "This shabby circle has piles of **** on top of each other."

Martin said: "Essentially, it is no different from the marriage of political families."

Bruce thought of something: "For example, Schwarzenegger married a woman from the Kennedy family."

  Martin asked: "I'm going to give Anne something special. What do you think is good?"

"What does she like? I think she must be interested in jewelry, luxury cars and luxury goods." Bruce repeated his old words: "Get her a big diamond. I heard that there are man-made diamonds that are more pure and beautiful than natural diamonds. "

Martin shook his head: "This is too ordinary. Let me think about it... Now, how about giving her a star?"

 Bruce doesn't want to talk to this man.

Martin has always been a man of action, so he did what he thought of. He took out his mobile phone and dialed Harris' number: "I, Martin. Give me an easy-to-observe star named Anne Hathaway. That's right, that's the one." Princess. The star map and certificate should be made more exquisitely, using the highest quality materials, yes! They should be high-end and high-end, and they should be mailed to me."

 Harris responded immediately.

 Martin solves the problem of gifts with ease, romantic yet unconventional.

This time he gave stars, and next time he could give real estate. Last time he mentioned the development of the moon project to Harris.

  Compared with the beach villas that are often given away, the quality is much higher.

 After all, one is in heaven and the other is on earth.

  Came to Warner Studio's The Mountain Has Eyes studio, and Martin attended a new publicity meeting for the film.

Because the theater manager will be recognized by the preview, the leading actor Martin himself is very popular, coupled with the success of the previous film, and Wes Craven's golden signature blessing, Eyes Beyond the Mountain can reach 3,300 theaters in North America. Around home.

In addition, Wax Museum will be released around January 20, 2005, when Warner Bros. will release the DVD. The DVD disc being pressed will include an advertisement for "The Mountain Has Eyes".

 Martin then followed Craven and Ajia into the producer's office.

 Craven took some documents and handed them to Martin: "Let's take a look, the newly printed top-secret information."

 Martin sat on the chair and looked carefully at the document in his hand. The paper was slightly old and stamped with a red seal of "Top Secret" and the logo of the United States Atomic Energy Assessment Agency.

Ajia is also watching: "It won't cause trouble, right?"

Craven smiled: "No, it's just a bit similar. In fact, there is no such organization. We made it up."

 Martin recalled a saying often said in Hollywood: "As long as you don't hack the tax bureau, you can hack other departments and agencies."

"That's right." Craven said: "These are just trivial matters. No one will care. We are not purely creating fake news. The posters and first-page advertisements of the film have been released. After the public sees it, they will quickly It reminds me of movie promotion.”

 Ajia asked: “Viral marketing?”

Craven simply said: "It's a kind of viral marketing, Martin's idea. In the past few months, there has been a lot of buzz about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. The political struggle caused by the election has also caused divisions in the media, and some people have come forward to break the news. Said Iraq only had washing powder.”

The crew and Warner Bros. adopted Martin's idea, which was also combined with the current social situation: "Now the public is particularly concerned about weapons of mass destruction, and we add fire to it."

(Let's talk about The Departed. First of all, I think the Hong Kong version is better. It beats the American version. I personally lack understanding of the gangs and social environment in the American version and it looks boring. But the film is highly rated in North America. Before The Wolf of Wall Street, It is Martin Scorsese's highest-grossing film. North American critics call it Martin Scorsese's best film after "Goodfellas". It seems to be around 50 on the IMDB Top 100.)
