American Fame and Fortune Chapter 208

Chapter 208 Saint

 In the evening, Martin and Elena went next door.

Lily was sitting on the sofa in the living room here, taking a sharp-edged carving knife, and kept poking at the box containing the horns.

With a pop, there was a big hole.

 Like venting some depressed emotions.

Hall was squatting on the nearby sofa, playing the game console happily. In order to avoid annoying the girl who was in a bad mood, he turned off the sound of the game.

 Suddenly, a fist came down and hit him on the head.

Hall raised his head and saw Lily's gloomy face, crying and saying: "I didn't mess with you."

Lily said: "You are happy, but I am not happy, so you can't be happy either!"

Hall was unreasonable and ran back into the house holding the game console.

Lily went crazy for a while, so she simply returned to the computer desk, took out her textbooks and study materials, and began to review her homework.

The sixteen-year-old girl turned her depression into motivation to study and planned to take the SAT exam next year, aiming to go to a university in Los Angeles.

 USC or CalArts?

She thought of these two schools and put them aside for the time being. She stopped thinking about them, especially Martin and Elena next door, and concentrated all her energy on studying.

What good things can a bad man and a prodigal woman do?

 Next door, the female knight Elena is fighting the dragon.

 In order to increase her fighting power, she also wore the chastity ring.

But the evil dragon named Martin was too powerful, and the female knight was unfortunately captured. The scene changed from a man riding a dragon to a man riding a dragon.

Everything calmed down, and the two of them made a tacit agreement not to mention Los Angeles.

The back window leaked, and a gust of breeze blew in. Elena lay on top of Martin and said, "After you became famous, the four of us dug up James in the early morning and secretly buried him in an empty tomb in the Methodist church. He will never come out again." question."

Martin said: "When I came back this time, I also wanted to deal with this matter."

 Originally I planned to dig a hole with Lao Bu one night.

Elena said: "Hall is good at digging holes and can solve them easily."

“How should I reward you?” Martin told Elena and the others differently: “I will soon sign a contract with CocCola, and there will be a large amount of endorsement fees. I will buy you a new house?”

Elena raised her eyebrows: "You idiot, you want to keep me?"

 Martin shook his head and said seriously: "My home is here. Mr. Bu said that I am a bad person. All my true feelings are left in Atlanta."

Elena stopped talking.

Martin then said: "I established a CocCola cult with the position of saint, and I hired you to be the saint."

Elena doesn't want to give up her current job: “I have a job.”

Martin said: "As a leader, I work part-time, and of course a saint can also work part-time." He picked up Elena's hand and pointed to the chastity ring on it: "Look, you have prepared to be a saint a long time ago. The preparation for a woman, chaste saint, is none other than you.”

Elena snorted: "Idiot, you haven't signed the endorsement contract yet. Let's wait until you sign the contract and get the money."

 Martin suddenly remembered something: "Where's Emma? Why didn't I see Emma?"

"Running away with someone again." Elena went crazy thinking about her mother: "She was addicted to drugs. I didn't give her money to buy flour, so she ran away with someone. Someone saw her at a truck camp near the airport. "

 Martin stroked her smooth back comfortingly, not knowing what to say.

Elena added: "I asked the **** Jack carefully about it. She only knew that Jack defrauded her of all her money and went to Australia or New Zealand. She didn't know the details."

 She looked at the other side: "Now I just want Lily and Hall to grow up safely."

"Maybe Jack is in trouble and will never show up again." Martin seemed to be talking to a stranger: "With Jack's personality, how can he bear it when he sees me become famous? Maybe he is chatting with God and wants to Cheating money from God.”

 Elena said: "Idiot, you better prepare yourself. You suck, but Jack is ten times worse than you."

Martin said without hesitation: "I have no younger brothers and sisters. If Jack jumps out, I will publicly sever ties with him. I have discussed some measures with Lao Bu, and you and other neighbors may be needed by then."

Elena nodded: "No problem."

The next morning, after breakfast, Martin paid a special visit to Mr. Ward, Nani, Welbeck and others who had fought side by side in the community. Each of them gave a practical gift and a crocodile fang pendant, and was also satisfied. A request for a photo of them together.

 Immediately, I got into a Mercedes-Benz driven by Bruce, left the Clayton community, and headed to Peachtree Street.

  A large group of young actors stood below the small office building of the Marietta Acting Agency.

 In front of them were the two giants of the company—Jerome and Robert.

 The latter has a big head and is cheerful.

 The former is calm and calm.

 A Mercedes Benz drove over and stopped in front of the building.

 Martin got out of the car and walked towards Jerome with a smile on his face.

Jerome found that the Martin in front of him was still the same Martin, as sunny and handsome, as kind and kind.

 He also moved forward.

 Hold both hands tightly together.

 Martin was as excited as before: "Captain, I'm back!"

Jerome shook his hand vigorously: "Okay, very good! You didn't embarrass our Marietta Troupe. You are the pride of the whole troupe!" Martin smiled: "Captain, you say that, I'm going to be proud."

Jerome finally laughed, particularly cheerfully: "I saw you right."

Without Martin's recommendation, the theater company and the resulting management company would not have reached an in-depth cooperation with Gray Films, let alone the scale it is today, and he would not have become one of the big names in Atlanta's entertainment industry.

As far as Jerome knows, no Hollywood star is as nostalgic as Martin, not even Robert Patrick.

Robert came over at this time: "Go back and chat?"

Jerome invited Martin: "Let's go inside and have a look at the company."

 Martin followed the two men towards the office building.

 The little actors in front of the building automatically made way for a passage.

Some people tried to say hello to Martin.

 “Hi Martin, you are my idol!”

 “You are my favorite star, I will work hard towards your goal!”

 Martin kept smiling and nodding: "Thank you, thank you everyone for your support."

The four people in front entered the office building. These young actors all dreamed of one day becoming a Hollywood star like Martin.

 After all, Martin also walked out from here.

 Martin entered the office building. In the most conspicuous place in the front hall, photos of him, Jerome and Robert hung.

Jerome said: "I have discussed with Robert and want to introduce you as a partner in the company."

"No need." Martin followed them upstairs: "I am a member of the Screen Actors Guild. The union stipulates that actors cannot participate in any brokerage business."

Just like agents cannot directly participate in the production of movies or TV series.

Came to Jerome's office, Martin asked: "I am here mainly to shoot "Wanted". I have communicated with the crew that extras and young actors will be recruited in Atlanta."

Jerome said: "The company's actors are auditioning for the crew and are the only partners."

Martin showed great gestures, took the bag from Bruce, and handed it to Jerome: "When I came back this time, I brought a special gift to the troupe. I am a member of the troupe, and my acting skills were also honed in the troupe. of."

Jerome opened the bag and saw a Saturn-like trophy inside the transparent plastic box. He couldn't help but get excited: "Saturn Award!"

Martin said: "The first trophy I got in Hollywood was the Saturn Award for Best Young Actor. It should be placed in the theater company."

Atlanta is his base camp, and it is also the place where his character is most likely to collapse in the future. When he was in Los Angeles, Martin decided to manage the network of people here.

 After chatting for a while, Martin went to visit Robert's office again.

As soon as he entered, he saw the desk where CocCola was placed, and he couldn't help but said: "The main altar of our CocCola Cult is here."

Robert said: "The Coke was made in 2003, the olive oil was produced in 2003, and the desk was moved from the theater. Everything and every step was paid attention to."

Martin thought that there was no olive oil there and said, "Send a batch of olive oil to Los Angeles."

Robert took out a small notebook and handed it to Martin: "This is the detailed process. I copied it specially for you."

 Martin looked at it carefully and gave it to Bruce to put away.

 In fact, for him, these are just like putting pig heads before the crew started filming in his previous life. They are also for seeking good luck.

The first good fortune that caught his attention was the Coke that Robert put on during Ma Zhen's performance.

 At noon, Jerome treated them to a treat, and Martin had lunch with them, took a short break, and went to the crew residence in the afternoon.

 The original General Motors Atlanta Production Center has been completely purchased by Gray Films, and Gray Films has officially moved here.

 The office area of ​​the Automobile Park has been renovated for use by the company and the resident crew.

 Part of the production workshop was transformed into a large photography studio.

 Some workshops are also being renovated one after another.

 Martin met Kelly Grey.

 She has short and medium chestnut hair, and her face with light makeup looks shrewd and capable, quite like a strong female CEO in a Hollywood movie.

 “Hero of Los Angeles, you seem to be in better shape.”

  In the CEO's office, Kelly sat on a swivel chair with her smooth legs crossed, looking at Martin up and down: "Why do I think you are prettier? Is there a halo effect between stars and heroes?"

Martin pulled her up, sat on the swivel chair, and held her on his lap: "Why did I attract so much attention to the video tape or the video incident? If you really want to say it, it can't be compared to the Holy Valley, or even compared to your previous productions. 's late-night movie.”

 Kelly rocked back and forth, looking for a special spot: “Because of the special effect that celebrity has.”

“That's right,” Martin said. “It's not just physical, it's also psychologically satisfying.”

Kelly asked: "Why didn't that loser come with you?"

Martin simply said: "She will come to Atlanta with the rest of the crew in two days."

Kelly finally found the right position and sat down hard: "Martin, I have been helping you from the beginning, so you must help me this time."

I don't know if it's due to the second yang. The low-grade fever has been cured in three days. Apart from the discomfort in my throat, I have no other obvious symptoms. I will have another outbreak in the next few days at the end of the month.
