American Fame and Fortune Chapter 639

 Chapter 639 The most responsible way to vote for Oscars

 Inside a Mexican restaurant.

Drett did not leave in a hurry, but said: "The information you provided is not comprehensive enough."

With the money in hand, Rodriguez could not give it away: "If the information was more detailed, it wouldn't be at this price."

"You can get more detailed information." Derrett looked at him and smiled: "Right?"

Rodriguez collected the money: "That's all I know."

Drett opened his wallet, took out a stack of dollars, and said directly: "You have a way, right?"

Rodriguez was not stupid and understood what he was talking about, but the risk was too great. After all, that man was Martin Davis. Not only was he on good terms with the LAPD, but he also killed more than a dozen gunmen on his own. Russian spy.

As far as my brothers are concerned, meeting Martin is a complete waste.

　　Drett nodded: "I understand."

 He took out another stack of dollars from his wallet and placed them side by side with the ones just now.

Diego and DePaul nearby were breathing rapidly, and their eyes were all focused on the black leather bag.

Romero quickly stretched out his hand to stop them to prevent the two of them from doing something stupid. When he was just at the door, he saw that there was a commercial car behind this man's car.

Rodriguez shook his head: "I have no choice."

 Drett took out a wad of money again: "No, you have a way."

Rodriguez looked unfazed.

  Drett took out the last stack of money and put them together: "Have you thought of a way?"

This time, even Rodriguez's breathing became a little rapid.

These ordinary people who came from Mexico are not living very well in Los Angeles. This place is a paradise for the rich.

Drett glanced at Rodriguez, said no more, and took the money into his bag.

There is no such test for people, and how can ordinary people stand such a test?

“Wait a minute!” Rodriguez finally couldn't help but speak: “If the amount of money is doubled, I'll think of a way.”

Drett smiled: "Okay."

Hearing that he should come down, Diego and De Paul were in high spirits. Is there anything better than a beautiful knife?

 Meida means good wine, beautiful women, and a better life...

Derrett took out the money again and pushed it to Rodriguez on the opposite side. At the same time, he said: "This part is the deposit. I will give you the rest after you finish it. Since you have been in Hollywood, you should know what those things mean to you." It's useless, it's of great value to us and we won't care about this little money.”

Rodriguez checked the money and stretched out his hand: "It's a deal."

“It's a deal.” Drette shook hands with him, stood up and left the restaurant.

Rodriguez picked up the money on the table, everyone threw a stack, and warned: "Keep your mouth shut."

Diego picked up the money and smelled it. The smell was so charming. He said, "Boss, you tell me what to do!"

Romero and DePaul put away the money and all looked at Rodriguez.

Such a stack of money is more than enough to kill several people in Mexico.

Having money in hand gives you the confidence to do anything, and it also gives people great confidence, making them feel that they can do anything.

Rodriguez accepted the money, no longer hesitated, and carefully recalled what he saw near the office and office building. There were surveillance cameras at the entrance and inside of the office building...

 He looked at Romero: "You are good at picking locks. What kind of safe can you open?"

Romero nodded: "It's not a big problem. If it doesn't work, we will dismantle it violently."

The safe is easy to solve, Rodriguez added: "We need to find an electrician next, and find someone who understands surveillance cameras."

DePaul responded: “There are many people coming from Mexico, so it is not difficult to find people who know these technologies.”

Rodriguez stood up and said, "Let's move quickly."

 Just after the 2011 New Year holiday, Martin received his Oscar ballot in the mail from the Film Academy.

Today, he is a member of both the Screen Actors Guild and the Producers Union, and is eligible to vote for all acting awards and best picture in internal voting within the Academy.

As the Academy mails out ballots, the Oscars PR campaign is getting more intense.

 Leonardo appeared on the Helen Show and talked about his journey in honing his acting skills over the years on TV. The hardships involved made people want to cry.

 “Listen, does it sound right?”

In the large living room of the villa, Nicholson shook his head while watching the TV program and said: "We are asking you to be ugly, not miserable."

Leonardo said with a slumped face: "Do you know how miserable I have been in order to hone my acting skills over the years?"

 He ​​stood up and turned around in front of Martin and Nicholson: "I'm 50 pounds fatter than I was in 2000. Isn't that miserable enough?"

"Yeah, you Leonardo are so miserable!" Martin couldn't hear this rich guy being miserable in front of a poor guy like himself, and said: "You have had more than a dozen official girlfriends, right? The informal ones have Ten, each one is a supermodel with a named name.”

Leonardo raised his finger and shook his head: "What you said is completely wrong, Martin. You said it the other way around. It's obvious that I was abandoned by more than a dozen women!" Elizabeth Olsen happened to bring a fruit plate over. When she heard I was stunned by this shameless statement.

No wonder he hangs out with someone like me and becomes a best friend. They are all the same bastards.

 But a **** like Martin is a hundred times cuter than Leonardo.

Martin gave Leonardo a thumbs up: "He is indeed the leading superstar in Hollywood, so shameless."

Nicholson took out his Oscar ballot directly from his pocket, asked Elizabeth for a pen, and said: "Just because you were kicked out by more than a dozen women, I have to vote for Best Actor first." for you."

 Leonardo looked at Martin and started to talk to Martin: "Since I bought so many artworks from Lily, you have to vote for me, right?"

 Elizabeth had already brought the ticket and pen to Martin.

 Martin was quite helpless and wrote Leonardo's name on the first line of the Best Actor column.

He then placed Natalie Portman in the first place for Best Actress, and Charlize Theron in the second place.

The best films were selected for "Inception" and "Gone Girl", and the first place for best supporting actor was Mene's name.

 But there are still a large number of empty name columns.

 Ditto for Leonardo and Nicholson.

 Martin wanted to finish the ballots today and mail them back directly to the college, and asked: "Do you have any suitable choices for the remaining ones?"

 Leonardo said: “No.”

"We are important members of the Academy, and every name on the Oscar ballot must be the result of careful selection." Nicholson said in a particularly serious tone: "Next, I will teach you the most responsible way to choose."

When Martin heard this, he immediately felt a sense of responsibility: "Jack, what you said makes sense. We should set an example for Oscar voting."

Nicholson asked: "I remember that there is an indoor archery hall in the entertainment area of ​​your house? There is also a dart board in it?"

 Martin said: "Yes, I have nothing to do but practice and play."

Leonardo exposed Martin: "This guy has severe persecution delusions."

Elizabeth, who had been acting as a temporary waiter and never interrupted, couldn't help but said: "Leo, if you have experienced serious violent injuries like Burbank Middle School and Santa Monica Pier, you will also be persecuted. Paranoia.”

 Leonardo echoed: "You are absolutely right."

Nicholson disagreed, saying that Martin's persecution paranoia was purely the sequelae of **** too many people.

 Martin took a few people to the annex building next door.

The basement floor of the auxiliary building was originally a small bowling alley. Martin was not interested in this thing, so it was directly converted into an indoor archery range, darts court and sports equipment hall.

Nicholson took a list of candidates, covered it on a large dart target, and said: "Next, we will choose the remaining places by throwing darts."

 Martin applauded vigorously: “This method is indeed responsible and should be promoted throughout the college!”

Leonardo seemed to have thought of something and asked Nicholson: "You old white men, do you vote in such a responsible way every time? No wonder I fail every time I run for the Olympics!"

 Martin pretended to suddenly realize: "It turns out that every time Leo loses the Oscar, it's not because of his poor acting skills, but because Jack and his friends were too responsible when voting!"

Nicholson was too lazy to talk to these two idiots, picked up a dart, stood outside the throwing line, and said: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and vote, I will go first. The above list is for Best Supporting Actress and Best Supporting Actor. ”

 Martin and Leonardo voted absolutely responsibly and picked up the signature pen at the same time.

Nicholson threw the dart with a swish. The dart missed, hit the wooden board behind the target, and fell.

 “Best Supporting Actress!” Leonardo made a signature gesture: “Woodboard!”

Nicholson picked up another dart and threw it again, this time it hit.

 He looked at it carefully and said: "Best Supporting Actress, Amy Adams!"

 Martin and Leonardo wrote Amy Adams's name in the first place for Best Supporting Actress.

Then Leonardo came on stage, and he voted for the Best Supporting Actor, which turned out to be Christian Bale.

Although there have always been sharp conflicts, in an attitude of absolute responsibility for the Oscar and all candidates, Martin filled in Bale's name under Mene's name.

 Then it was Martin's turn.

Leonardo explained: "You throw the darts too accurately. You can throw whichever one you want. This is too irresponsible and unfair to other people. I think you must blindfold yourself."

"I am a responsible person." Martin found a piece of black cloth, covered his eyes, and threw the dart out with his arm.

 The dart hits the target steadily.

Nicholson said: "Best Supporting Actress, Jackie Weaver!"

Leonardo and Nicholson don't even know this actress, let alone Martin.

 But the darts made their choice, and they still filled in the man's name.

With a serious and responsible attitude, the three **** worked like this for more than an hour before filling out the Oscar ballots and mailing them out the same day.
