American Fame and Fortune Chapter 833

Chapter 833: Hollywood Star Dream

Arriving in front of the TV station, Olina opened her arms and hugged Martin tightly: "Finally, I've been waiting for you to come to Kiev."

 Martin said with a smile: "You and Alexandrovich sincerely invite you, of course I want to come and have a look."

Olina let go of her arm and introduced the middle-aged bald man next to him: "This is our partner, Rebrov, the director of 1+1 TV station."

 Martin shook hands with him: "Hello, nice to meet you."

Rebrov's English is pretty good: “Martin, it's a great honor for our TV station to have you here.”

 Alexandrovitch came from behind and said: "Let's go in and talk."

 Four people entered the TV station together.

 “This way.” Alexandrovich led the way.

The group went directly to the third floor. As soon as they got out of the elevator, they heard singing and music.

　　Although it is in Ukrainian, Martin can still tell it from the tune. This is the classic "StopStopStop".

Those girls all opened their eyes wide. If eyes could eat people, Martin would definitely be eaten by them.

At that time, he still had people check, but the three girls quickly disappeared from Los Angeles.

As the organizer and host of the show, Alexandrovich quickly pressed down with his hands: "Don't mess around, everyone, and train with peace of mind. The finals will start soon."

 Martin stuffed it into his pocket.

 Martin asked: “Why did you come to Ukraine?”

 According to Alexandrovich, the Holy Maidens often change members and have done so 16 times.

 The scent is fragrant as soon as you enter, and the beautiful scenery on the opposite side almost dazzles your eyes.

 Nikia was in Ukraine and decided to tell what happened in North America: "Martin, have you heard of Michelle Bryan?"

  They spoke English, which sounded pretty good.

 Alexandrovich accompanied Martin and introduced them one by one: "This is Vera, this is Anastasia, this is Nastya, this is Mia, this is Erica..."

 Martin looked at her briefly. She had blond hair, a slap face, was short, but had excellent body proportions, and said, "I think we have met before, right?"

The assistant quickly went to open the door.

Nikia knew that Martin was coming today and had been prepared for it. She said, "Can I have a few words alone for a while?"

 It's a pity that he can't remember which saint's group he belongs to.

Nikiya sat opposite Martin and said cautiously: "Before Alexandrovich, I didn't expect to meet you in Ukraine."

The other girls' eyes were all focused on Nikiya, and they did not hide their envy and jealousy.

There was also a girl behind who also hinted at Martin: "Can I also talk to you alone?"

“I am a Ukrainian.” Nikiya forced a smile: “I couldn't stay in North America anymore, so I ran back to Ukraine.”

 Martin was surprised: "Does it have something to do with me? It seems that we have only met twice, right? Once at Morgan Freeman's farm, and the other time at the gate of WMA."

Each person has a different face shape, body shape, height, and hair color. Their beauty is very recognizable, unlike those produced on the assembly line, where they are almost all carved from the same mold.

 Under the guidance of Alexandrovich, Martin entered a huge practice room.

The fifteen contestants who entered the finals, all wearing hot pants and short T-shirts, stood in a row on the opposite side, as if waiting for Martin to review.

 Martin nodded: "I can guess it."

 Alexandrovitch introduced another girl with a slightly petite figure: "This is Nikia."

 He looked at Rebrov: "Is there a separate reception room? I'll have a chat with her."

Rebrov immediately said to his assistant: "The reception room on this floor."

Most of the girls here seem to understand English. As soon as Nikiya said this, others looked over.

 Martin visited the players, temporarily left the practice room, and waved to Nikia.

 Martin shook hands with these players one by one, saying encouraging words, but there were a few small notes in his hand.

 Martin and Bruce entered the reception room together, and Nikia followed.

 Martin responded easily and said, "Nikia and I have known each other for a long time, and I want to ask her something."

Nikia said: "Me, Mia and Marlena came to you for an ulterior purpose, not just because of Morgan Freeman's party."

Hearing this song, Martin will think of the live singing performances he often saw when watching videos in his previous life. The performance of the black and white red trio is particularly impressive.

 “Sit anywhere.” Martin sat on a single sofa.

These players all bent down and bowed: "Hello, Martin."

 Martin seemed unaware and responded softly: "Come over to me later."

She glanced at Martin and said with some caution, "And it has something to do with you."

 “Good morning, everyone.” Martin greeted these people.

It is also the most widely circulated song by the Holy Maiden Group.

As we all know, there are many women and there is competition. Many times, the pressure is so low that people don't want to stay.

 Many female players seem to have other ideas.

Martin is in Hollywood, so of course he knows this person: "After Heidi Fleiss, the most famous bustard in Los Angeles, it is said that he was punished by the FBI for fishing in the past few years."

Nikia said: "After Michelle came out, she was still engaged in this industry, with a larger scale and busier business, because she was only fined tens of thousands of dollars, and the residential surveillance was not implemented. Many people I think her business is reliable and there will be no problems. Even if there are problems, they can be easily solved.”

 Martin asked: “How long have you been following Michelle?”

"More than a year." Nikiya said: "I went to Los Angeles from Europe. I wanted to be a star. After I went there, I realized that the threshold for this industry is very low and it is very difficult to become famous. The income from being an extra is not even enough to eat. Later, after being introduced by a fellow villager, I first took photos of the attic and then joined Michelle's staff.”

She still has some nostalgia: "Her income was very good, five figures a month, but some clients' interests and hobbies were too special and unbearable, and Michelle was very controlling. In order to attract rich people, Heavyweight clients often use less than honorable means. "

 Martin nodded slightly: "For example, a customer like me?"

Nikia said carefully: "Yes, before going to Morgan Freeman's farm, Michelle specially found me, Mia and Marlena. Maybe the three of us are more beautiful and have different styles. There is always one that suits us. your appetite."

Martin recalled that Marlena looked like an innocent girl, Mia was a blond bomb, and Nikia opposite was a standard white and skinny girl.

 It can only be said that he is worthy of being a leader in this industry.

 He asked: "How much money can you make from me just by making me a customer?"

Even if he rents out a party from time to time, how much will it cost?

What's more, this kind of purchased love becomes boring after a few times.

Nikia said: "Michelle let us attract you first, and when you relax and indulge in the carnival, she will prepare a special gift for you, and if nothing else, it should be drugs."

 Martin was really not surprised at all: "Make me a drug addict?"

"Actually, many drug addicts in Hollywood are Michelle's big clients, such as Depp." Nikia quickly emphasized: "I don't have any evidence. These are rumors we discussed privately. Depp will sometimes find People play with him, and these people will discuss it privately when they come back.”

Martin recalled the incident in Death Valley National Park and asked: "When Depp was filming "The Lone Ranger," did Michelle supply him?"

 Nikia shook her head: "I don't know, this business seems to be independent."

Martin asked again: "Actually, I noticed you, but you suddenly disappeared from Los Angeles."

“Michelle wanted to develop you into a big customer and paid the three of us a very high salary.” Nikia described the situation at the time: “We got the money and thought you were too vigilant and a little...”

She glanced at Martin and said sheepishly: "There are some perverts who actually asked us to dance for such a long time but were indifferent. Marlena said that if you continue to follow Michelle's instructions, it may arouse your vigilance, and you Not easy to mess with, we decided to take Michelle's money, do nothing, and run away.”

  Martin said: "You returned to Ukraine and participated in the selection of the Saints."

Nikia smiled: "I also had the idea of ​​giving it a try, but I didn't expect to win a large number of supporters." She suddenly remembered something: "People from my hometown called me a few days ago and told me that someone came to inquire. Me, I've been out recently, and I always feel like someone is following me around, maybe I'm suspicious..."

Martin asked: "How did Michelle deal with people like you who ran away in the past?"

“I don't know.” Nikiya thought about it for a moment and said, “But in private, Michelle said that no one can take her money and live a good life without doing anything.”

 Because of worry, she was terrified: "I suspect Michelle's people are chasing her to Ukraine."

Martin glanced at Bruce, who nodded slightly, picked up his phone and started sending a message.

 Nikia asked: "I...what should I do?"

Martin said directly: "Train with peace of mind, follow the arrangements of the program team, do not go out in private, and wait for the game to start."

Nikiya responded: "I completely obey the arrangement of the program team."

 Martin asked Nikia to go back, and when he came out of the reception room, he saw Alexandrovich and TV station director Rebrov, and explained what had just happened in detail.

“Someone wants to catch our contestant?” Alexandrovich is not tall, but the top of his head is starting to get angry. In front of the boss, he is doing a program that he has planned. Isn't this a slap in the face?

The show's astonishingly high advertising costs caused a sensation in the CIS and Eastern Europe. Catching contestants on the show was tantamount to grabbing money from all participants in the show. Rebrov said harshly: "Those bastards, just come, the TV station has Armed bodyguards, their AKs loaded with bullets!”

Alexandrovich also gained some confidence as a village chief and said to Martin: "Boss, this is Kiev, not Los Angeles. Those **** don't understand the rules here at all!"

Martin had some ideas, but this is not Los Angeles. He only brought four more bodyguards, and he had to rely on people here to do the work. He said: "We are not completely sure whether those rats exist, but we can't risk the show."

With a profit share of tens of millions of dollars involved, Rebrov nodded repeatedly: "Yes, we can't risk pretending that the mouse doesn't exist."

 Alexandrovitch also agreed: “Boss, what do you think we should do?”

Martin said: "According to your statement, players basically work at two points and one line at a time. When they are not training on the TV station, they rest in the hotel?"

 Alexandrovich said: “The schedule before the finals is very tight and they don't have any extra time.”

  Martin asked: “Are our security personnel adequate and professional?”

Rebrov said: “The TV station belongs to the Privat Group and has sufficient professional security personnel.”

  Martin had done some work before coming here and knew that Privat Group is one of the oligarchic groups in Ukraine, and its core Privat Bank ranks among the top 500 banks in the World.

Of course, this trivial matter will not alarm the senior officials of the oligarchy.

Martin said: "We are loose on the outside and tight on the inside. The outside remains the same, and except for the necessary personnel inside, all the rest are replaced by professionals."

Alexandrovich added: “There is a need for some female security personnel.”

 “No problem.” Rebrov called.

Soon, the three security captains entered the reception room and started discussing together.

 Martin then found Nikia and gave her an alarm provided by the security staff. If something went wrong, the security staff would immediately receive the message by pressing the button on the watch.

"Servant of the People" made Alexandrovich a household name in Ukraine. The Holy Maiden Selection Contest initiated and organized by him caused a sensation in the CIS and Eastern Europe during the budget stage.

 Martin joined as a judge for the finals, further increasing the popularity.

 There were many reporters covering the program, even waiting around the clock.

With a tag hanging on his chest and a camera in his hand, Andre left the door of the TV station and got into a car.

 Not long after, two other people also got in the car.

Andre asked the bearded man among them: "Victor, what's going on over there?"

Victor rubbed his beard and said: "The girl named Nikia has been going back and forth between the TV station and the hotel. She is very careful that our people cannot come into contact with her."

Andre asked: "Can I do anything along the way?"

Victor shook his head directly: "They took a bus, and there were security personnel's vehicles in front and behind, unless they hired someone to commit armed robbery."

Andre knocked on the steering wheel: "It looks like we have to formulate a trapping plan."

 He looked at the blond young man on the other side: "Leonid, have you made any progress?"

"Yes, a dance teacher took our money and our information." Leonid shook his beautiful blond hair and said: "I have already communicated with her, and she will try to persuade some of them. A relatively silly and sweet person.”

He added: "Some of these players are from ordinary backgrounds and have limited experience, but they are full of star dreams."

“Ordinary people don't want to leave Ukraine and go to a paradise country.” That's how Andrei left Ukraine and went to the United States to pursue his dream: “Believe me, the dream of stardom in the United States will impress many people.”

Leonid said: "Boss, after this time is over, can we go to the United States?"

Andre laughed: "Of course! I will take you to enjoy the warm sunshine in Los Angeles. As long as you follow me, you will earn five times the amount here, still in US dollars!"

Victor and Leonid both laughed happily.

 TV station, in a lounge near a practice room.

 Erica Hersegg, who had a blond ponytail, came in slowly, took off her sweaty dance clothes, kicked off her dancing shoes and sat on the ground.

Nastya Zhekvnikova, with long brown-black hair shawl, glanced at her companion next to her.

Misha Nomannova shook off her wavy red hair and came to the door of the lounge. She looked outside and saw no one outside, so she closed the door tightly.

The three of them are roommates, and their relationship is the best among those who are about to participate in the finals. Seeing that the door was closed, Erica asked: "Is there a secret to tell?"

Nastya said: "Based on the recent dance rehearsals, I have a bold inference that at the critical stage of the finals, it may be conducted as a team of three."

Erica hugged her knees with her hands and kneaded them: "There is no notice from above."

Misha said: "Move your head under your blond hair! Erica, you are not really big-breasted and brainless, are you?"

Erica shrugged: "I have been an operator for too long, and I am a little out of touch with society and have less experience."

 Nastya rolled her eyes: "If it weren't for me and Misha, you would have been sold long ago!"

The relationship between girls is very strange. They often become best friends when they see each other. She reminded Erica: "There are many bad people in the candidate group. Think about it when you encounter something. If you don't understand something, ask me and me first." Misha's opinion.”

Nastya is the youngest, but she started performing on stage at the age of six. After she was fifteen, she participated in two talent shows. She is undoubtedly the most knowledgeable among the three.

Misha also said: "Don't be betrayed, and help count the money."

Erica quickly responded: "Okay, okay, I will definitely consult you when I encounter something."

Nastya returned to the topic: "As you know, I have participated in two auditions. Although I was eliminated in the end, I am very familiar with the process of audition programs. The Saints only select three members, and we will definitely be eliminated in the end. These people form teams in threes as an important part of the assessment.”

She suggested: "The three of us live together, and after we go back in the evening, we can practice song chorus together. If our physical strength allows, it would be best to practice dancing together."

Misha said: "The opportunity is right in front of us, we must not miss it!"

Compared to Nastya and Misha who were born in the 1990s, Erica, who was born in 1988, values ​​opportunities more. She has achieved nothing at the age of 25 and she does not want to go back to being an operator.

 After the three people discussed it, they changed their clothes and left.

Erica went to the nearby Latin dance studio to ask dance teacher Olga for some advice on dance.

 After a period of training, Olga has a basic understanding of this group of students. She seems to be a silly person and answered the questions patiently.

 Erica was somewhat anxious.

Olga said: "Be patient, you have to have a normal mind."

Erica tossed her blond ponytail back: "Among all the candidates, I am the oldest. If I miss this opportunity, I will never be able to get ahead in my life. Teacher, I don't want to go back and be an operator again."

Olga smiled and shook her head: "There is never a lack of opportunities around us... Well, I have a student who is about the same age as you. She was kicked out of the Kiev district finals. She was so uncomfortable that she wanted to jump off the building, but opportunities always come unexpectedly. Suddenly, a Hollywood talent scout spotted her!"
