Chapter 172: Broken Heart
On Christmas Eve, most of the remaining tenants came to the rooftop to attend a party. Bruce went around a few men's circles and found that there were many people discussing Nevada's dirty stuff.
Meine was eloquent: “Based on my experience of paying attention to Washington for 20 years, there is definitely something behind this matter.”
He looked at Martin and Antonio and said: "Boss, Anthony, this is what I think. Will the Pentagon conduct biological weapons experiments there? Create a humanoid weapon that has no pain and only knows **** like crazy?"
Martin picked up the glass and said, "It would be a waste if you don't become a screenwriter."
Meine was embarrassed to laugh: "I have recently been working on Bradett's adaptation of "Wanted", and I am a bit influenced by him."
Antonio patted his basketball-like belly and asked Martin: "Are you going to be the leading actor again?"
Martin nodded: "Pretty much. A new film will be released in early February next year, and there will be another film to be shot later. I will be the absolute protagonist."
“You've become a big star, and it's no longer suitable to live here.” Antonio thought for himself: “It's not just me, but if a paparazzi offered me six figures to install a pinhole camera in your room, I couldn't refuse.”
Meine said: "You are so direct."
Antonio turned to look at Bruce who was walking back: "I want to make money, but I'm afraid of being perverted."
Martin took a sip of wine and said, "Don't worry, Lao Bu won't blow people's heads."
Antonio moved his butt, thinking that what I was afraid of was not the headshot. He said: "If you want to change your house, you can come to me and I will introduce it to you."
Martin was curious: “Do you have a property for sale?”
“No.” Antonio raised his head: “But I know a lot of rich people.”
He stated a fact: "Don't forget, when I was a millionaire, you were still a bunch of poor people."
Meine looked at Anthony, who was as fat as a ball, and then at his handsome self. Society is really unfair. Why are there always such greasy old men with money?
Martin had a drink with Antonio: "No problem, I will come to you when I need to buy a house."
Bruce is back.
Jessica and Emily followed, and they clinked glasses with Martin: "Merry Christmas!"
Martin raised his cup: "Merry Christmas!"
Jessica finished her drink and said again: "There is an express mail from Atlanta, I will collect it for you."
Martin nodded: “I'll go get it later.”
At about ten o'clock, Mene was ready to go back to his residence.
Before leaving, he said to Martin: "Boss, you paid the fine for me. No matter what, as long as you use me, in one word, I will be yours!"
Martin pushed him: "Go back quickly, what do I want you to do?"
Bruce hugged Mene's neck and joked: "As long as you have your tongue."
Mene was serious: "I will lick whoever you ask me to lick." He glanced at Antonio: "The fat landlord is fine."
Martin waved his hand and said directly: "I won't be polite to you when I need you."
Meine was the first to leave the top floor.
After a while, Martin and Bruce went downstairs together.
Jessica and Emily followed.
Martin went to get the express mail and stood at the door of the room. Jessica went into the living room to get it.
The petite Emily stood in the entrance hall, looked up at Martin, and suddenly asked: "Martin, you don't have a date tonight?"
Martin responded casually: "No."
Emily lowered her voice: "You can stay here, Jesse won't object."
Jessica came over with the package and heard it, but neither agreed nor refuted.
Martin shrugged: "Annie drained me dry when she went back to New York."
He took the express mail from Jessica and returned to his apartment.
Emily closed the door and asked, "He doesn't like us?"
Jessica is younger but has a more lively mind than Emily: "The work you and I did at the studio of "The Mountain Has Eyes" came from his recommendation. Strictly speaking, we are his employees."
Emily didn't understand what she meant.
Jessica was helpless and patted Emily's chest: "This is where all your brains grow!"
On the other side, Martin returned to the apartment.
Bruce was surprised: "You're actually back?"
Martin found the wallpaper knife, opened the package, but said another thing: "You are my manager, who specializes in bad things."
The first sentence was pleasant to listen to, but the latter sentence made Old Bu want to pull out a gun: "Because you, a rotten person, always do bad things."
“So, I need an assistant who can manage the blog, communicate with fans, and handle daily affairs.” Martin asked: “This position is very important. Who do you think is suitable?”
Bruce thought of Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton. As prosperous as the former was after her betrayal, the latter was as embarrassed as she was.
He thought for a while: "I think Jessica is more suitable. She has simple social relations, has some brains, and is easy to control."
Martin said: "She has studied in art college, worked hard in Hollywood, and is a little smart, so it is more suitable than recruiting a stranger." "Keep an appropriate distance, especially between men and women." Bruce suddenly thought of something sad.
Isn't that what he is? He got drunk by his former boss, and then...he left quickly.
In other words, he is a good person, and Vincent treats him well, so he does not target his former employer.
Martin opened the package. Inside was the gift sent by Harris, a star made of crystal, a star map inlaid with rhinestones on a copper plate, and a high-end and elegant certificate.
To make this set, plus postage, it will cost more than 100 US dollars.
Bruce came over to look through it, and the more he looked at it, the more interesting it became: "Give me a set, and I'll give it to Jin."
Martin said: "When she got excited, she asked you to make a film?"
Bruce had a serious look on his face: "Come on, I decided to shoot with her. Goodbye after the shoot."
"You are going to become a world-class celebrity." Martin has no doubt about this. After awakening, Kim Kardashian is definitely a master of hype. He exclaimed: "Maybe he is more famous than another Bruce and is a top celebrity who is famous all over the world."
Bruce said: "Of course I have to control it, I won't show my face."
Martin was completely uninterested: "Not showing your face? It's boring."
Bruce asked Martin to get a star gift, and then said: "You go to bed early, I will go find Jin for Christmas."
Martin sadly discovered that he had become a loner.
Fortunately before going to bed, I received a call from Louise: "Thank you for the Christmas gift."
“You're welcome, it's specially prepared for you.” Martin said specially: “The master mixologist can not only create original creations, but also improve existing recipes. The improved recipes of three classic cocktails are more suitable for modern people's tastes.”
Not only Louise, but also Kelly Gray, Elena, Lily and other friends in Atlanta, including partners such as Vincent and Sofia, he all mailed Christmas gifts.
Louise realized that she had not prepared a Christmas gift for Martin. Thinking of Martin's various heart-warming actions after the failure of "Alexander the Great", she said softly: "I will fully take over the preliminary preparations for Wanted. You can prepare for the role and do the chores with peace of mind." Leave it all to me... Well, we will leave for Hong Kong City the day after tomorrow, and the expenses will be all mine."
Martin smiled: “It feels so good to be taken care of.”
Louis said: "Not just you and me, but also Angelina Jolie."
Martin was surprised: "What is she going to do at the annual meeting of the Bartenders Association? She also wants to be a bartender?"
Louis said simply: "Julie is going to Cambodia and will transfer from Hong Kong City."
Martin had a vague impression that some of the children adopted by Julie were from Southeast Asia. He thought about it for a while and then said: "You are personally responsible for the wanted order, and you just invited Julie to star in Fox. You can read the outline of Bradt's script. But cool girls suit Jolie.”
Louise was surprised: "You still dare to invite her? "Tomb Raider 2", "Mobile Killer", plus this one, the market response is very average, are you sure she can turn around?"
Strictly speaking, Jolie has messed up three movies in a row. If "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" fails, she will basically be finished in Hollywood.
But Jolie made a comeback thanks to her scandal with Pitt.
What's even more frightening is that Jolie has no public relations, and all responses come from herself.
Martin said: "Her salary must go down, right?"
Louise said: "I am sure that I invited her with 5 million US dollars and made her grateful to me, but her appeal..."
"I heard that Jolie had an affair with Pitt when she was filming "Mr. and Mrs. Smith."" Martin could only say this: "Scandals are not necessarily a bad thing. If Jolie breaks out on her own and joins the film crew in hyping it up... the audience often just watch Heat, scandal or not.”
Louise said directly: "You are gambling."
Martin said: "Actually, I am the first protagonist. If she is popular, she will be the icing on the cake. If she is not popular, she will not become a burden."
He thought more: "Besides, if she doesn't expose herself, we can still kick her out."
Louis has seen too many bad things about people and people. She thinks with Hollywood thinking: "If Jolie takes away Pitt, and you step in as a third party and take away Jolie, wow..."
She became excited: "I feel wonderful just thinking about it. The film must explode."
Martin asked: “Do you think it's feasible?”
Louis thought about it carefully, and felt that it was indeed feasible, and then said: "I will have a good talk with Julie when I see her."
Meanwhile, at a party in Century City.
Thomas met Anne Hathaway's agent Maha.
The two took the initiative to find a quiet place to chat.
Maha said directly: "Anne and Martin are tied together. They attract a lot of media attention. They are relatively young. There are some things we need to take care of for them."
Thomas said to himself that the one in his family had a clearer head than anyone else, but he agreed with Maha's words: "I have communicated with Martin, and he agreed to cooperate."
Maha felt relieved: "The same goes for Anne." She reminded emphatically: "Anne is still very young, and so is Martin. They are both on the rise in their careers. You have to warn Martin and take protective measures. I don't want Anne to get pregnant."
“Martin will do a good job.” Thomas believed in Martin: “Next, we will discuss the rhythm and plan of the two exposures, so that they can neither escape the media and public view, nor cause disgust.”
Two agents were worried about their clients' love.
