Chapter 337 Hero among women
Beverly Hills, the mansion Harvey Weinstein bought as a newlywed last year, is brightly lit tonight.
The hostess Georgina Chapman stood in the foyer of the villa early to welcome the arrival of distinguished guests.
Martin came a little late because he attended an event in the afternoon.
He walked into the foyer, shook hands with Georgina, presented a gift, looked at it for a while, and praised: "The dress is beautiful, the person is even more beautiful, the artistic masterpiece of the Muse."
Georgina said with a smile: "No wonder Kate always mentions your advantages and speaks very nicely."
Martin asked deliberately: "Didn't Kate say another great advantage about me?"
Georgina asked just right: "Can I know?"
Martin said: "Be honest and trustworthy."
This sounded like she was bragging, but when Georgina combined it with the previous words, she could hear Martin praising her beauty and saying: "If I build a men's clothing brand, I will definitely hire you as the image spokesperson."
Martin struck while the iron was hot: "Georgina, we have a deal."
Georgina discovered that Martin was not at all like what her husband Harvey said, but closer to what Kate described. He was clearly an interesting guy.
She looked behind Martin and pretended to be disappointed: "Julie and Aniston didn't come with you?"
Martin nodded: "My charm is limited and I can't impress those two ladies."
"It's okay." Georgina was still smiling: "Let's make an appointment again when we have the chance."
Martin said: "No problem."
The two chatted for a while and soon separated.
Martin entered the lobby of the mansion and looked around. They were all famous male and female celebrities in the industry.
Among them, female stars are several times more than male stars.
Meryl Streep came over automatically: "Jack said what action are you planning?"
Nicholson didn't say it, and Martin certainly wouldn't tell her: “Secret action.”
Meryl thought of the last mortar, which was rare for relaxation and fun, and asked: "Is it as fun as the one at Pinewood Studios? Take me one?"
“I'm afraid not.” Martin was mainly afraid that Meryl, who was in her fifties, would feel inferior to a group of supermodels in their twenties.
Compared to traditional European female models, Victoria's Secret models are relatively more toned.
Meryl snorted coldly: "It seems that you don't regard me as one of your own."
How dare Martin regard her as one of his own? Meryl slept with Nicholson, slept with Weinstein, and was said to have had close relationships with many directors. She was a standard Aquaman.
Which man dares to believe in the female Aquaman?
Meryl turned around and was about to leave. A blond woman came over from behind with a glass of red wine. She tilted her head and talked to the person on her side. The two were about to collide.
With quick eyesight and quick hands, Martin grabbed Meryl and dragged her a step this way.
The blond woman seemed to be frightened and passed by her. Her arms shook and the red wine in her glass spilled out.
Meryl glanced at Martin and nodded slightly: "Thank you."
She then looked at the woman.
The blonde woman's facial profile is as hard as rock, very recognizable in Hollywood, Cate Blanchett.
Blanchett looked innocent: "Sorry, I didn't see you."
The waiter came over and wiped the red wine on the floor with a towel.
Meryl is not as friendly as her public image. As an actor who came from the 1960s and 1970s, she still has many marks of that era. She stepped forward and scolded: "Bitch! Don't think that I will watch it in this way." I can't believe you did it on purpose!”
Seeing how simple and rude the other party was, Blanchett put away the innocence on her face and said, "I really didn't see you, an old woman."
Someone has already gone to notify Georgina of this owner.
Blanchett was a bit more polite, stopped entangled with Meryl, turned around and left.
Meryl looked around.
Martin hid beside him, and from an angle that Meryl could only see, he quietly stretched out a finger.
On the long table over there, someone put a glass of red wine.
Meryl's affection for Martin has greatly increased. Now is not the time to talk. She came to the table in two steps, picked up the wine glass and caught up with Blanchett.
"careful…"
I don't know who reminded Blanchett.
Blanchett turned around. Before she could understand what was going on, red wine was splashed in her face.
Blonde hair, exquisite makeup, and off-white dress, all wet with wine.
Blanchett was stunned for a moment.
Meryl said fiercely: "Bichi, what other methods do you have? Just use it, I will accompany you to the end!"
The onlookers gathered around at this time.
Who wants to miss such a good show?
The industry is full of fights, especially among actresses. The competition is so fierce. The fight is not only about who has better acting skills and who dares to take off their clothes and sleep with someone, but also who is more scheming and even crueler.
Amidst the rapid footsteps, Georgina rushed over and stopped between Meryl and Blanchett to prevent the situation from deteriorating further. Kate Winslet also rushed over and found Martin nearby. She asked with her eyes. When she saw Martin shaking his head slightly, he helped Georgina restore the atmosphere.
Georgina accompanied Blanchett to another room nearby.
The waiter quickly cleaned up the remaining traces.
Kate said a few words, and the atmosphere in the hall was somewhat restored.
Meryl was ready to leave in advance, and before leaving, she went to find Martin: "Thank you."
Martin was very direct: "You're welcome, that old **** Jack and I are besties."
Meryl nodded, said no more, and left.
Kate slowly came to the opposite side, pulled out a chair and sat down, and said, "Have you been here?"
Martin nodded: "It's not because of tonight."
Kate was filming "The Reader" at Pinewood Studios at the time and learned a little bit: "A continuation of the last time?"
“Blanchett had a serious fall that time, which also caused Bell's sponge to tear. She lay in the hospital bed for two weeks. She probably wanted revenge this time. I saw her bringing red wine over..." Martin said briefly.
Kate smiled helplessly: "I guess Blanchett didn't expect that Meryl would turn her back immediately and embarrass her on the spot."
Martin thought about it for a moment, Meryl slept with the Oscar winner and the best director, slept with the Oscar gold medal producer, and had a harmonious family that everyone in the United States envied, and she could be happy with each other.
He couldn't help but say: "What a hero among women."
Kate slapped her forehead: "You and Leo are so capable of causing trouble."
Martin is very innocent: "As the younger brother, I have no right to speak, so I can only act with the boss and the second child."
Kate believes him.
After chatting for a while, Georgina returned to the hall and saw Kate with Martin. She also came here and sat at the small round table.
Kate asked: "Where are the people?"
Georgina replied: "I changed my clothes and left early."
Martin glanced at the door and said, "We won't meet them outside, right?"
“As long as they leave my house, they can tear each other apart as much as they like.” Georgina was a little annoyed: “I don't care if they stab each other.”
Kate pointed at Martin and said to Georgina: "My dear, you should thank him. If he hadn't pulled Meryl out and asked Blanchett to pour wine on Meryl, Meryl's With a fiery personality, you can't end up here tonight.”
Georgina rubbed her forehead: "Fortunately out of misfortune." She waved to the waiter and asked him to bring three glasses of wine. She took the initiative to toast Martin: "Anyway, you helped me stop a bigger incident in time." Farce happened, thank you.”
Martin clinked glasses with her: "You're welcome."
Kate comforted Georgina: "It's not your problem. The two of them had conflicts when they were filming at Pinewood Studios. Don't drag them into the same situation in the future."
Georgina drank and put down her glass: “I understand.”
On the other side, someone waved to Kate, and Kate said, "You guys talk first, I'll be back soon."
“It's up to you.” Martin looked at Georgina and asked, “This is a small matter, there is competition for fame and fortune in the industry, and similar things happen from time to time.”
“Is this also the reason why you and Harvey had conflicts?” Georgina has always been curious.
Martin heard Kate say that Georgina had some feelings for Harvey, and it was more because she was married to Harvey's network.
How difficult is it for a new fashion brand that wants to take the high-end route to break out? The existence of Harvey can reduce the difficulty exponentially.
But Martin still chose his words carefully: "Harvey invited me to star in a movie, but my schedule was not suitable, so I had to decline him politely. Maybe, how should I put it..."
Georgina knew Harvey well and added: "He is relatively strong at work and doesn't like rejection."
Martin smiled helplessly: "That's true."
Seeing that Georgina was no different, he further probed: "It's also my bad luck. A project invested by Harvey used an Australian actor named Heath Ledger. He took drugs and drove his car and almost hit me. and Aniston.”
Georgina nodded slightly: "I know about this, but what Kate said is completely different from what Harvey said."
Martin immediately asked: "Would you like to hear what I, the client, have to say again?"
“Of course!” said Georgina.
Martin described what happened exactly as it was, and finally said: "Because of this incident, the filming of the crew was delayed for a period of time. Maybe Harvey blamed me, but Aniston and I were almost killed by that guy. ”
Compared to Harvey's statement, Georgina believed what she saw with her own eyes more. She had known Martin for a long time, especially from her best friend Kate who often heard him talk about it.
It is very obvious that Harvey has a prejudice against Martin because of some things, and his statement is too subjective.
The two had a good chat, and Martin specifically mentioned Briony: "They intend to invite me to be their image spokesperson. I don't know enough about the clothing industry. You are an expert in this field. Can you give me some professional advice?"
This kind of professionalism was in demand, which made Georgina feel that it was useful, and said seriously: "If the endorsement fee is suitable, I suggest you go next. Brioni is a high-end brand, and it will also add to your image..."
Martin listened carefully, as if Georgina's suggestions had taken effect, he said: "Thank you, what you said has helped me a lot."
Kate came back and said, "Some people may have to leave."
Georgina stood up to give it away and said: "If there is such a fuss tonight, both Blanchett and Streep may reject my brand."
She sighed: "It's a pity that Harvey has no influence in the fashion and modeling circles."
