American Fame and Fortune Chapter 849

Chapter 849 Letter of Voting

The script within the company has not yet been circulated to the outside. After Thomas contacted, Carlton-Cuse and his agent agreed to talk to Thomas first.

Whether the negotiation can be concluded is nothing more than a matter of copyright fees.

Carlton Cuse is not a new screenwriter, but a first-line screenwriter client of WMA. Although he is not a gold medal screenwriter, the script cannot be won for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Martin is willing to spend money in this regard. The licensing fee does not exceed US$2 million, and Thomas can make the decision.

Thomas also read the script and reminded one thing: "Martin, if you play the leading role, you will have to make adjustments in many aspects. Your age is not suitable to be an adult father."

Martin thought for a while and said: "When we talk about copyright, you talk about the modification of the script and characters together, and make adjustments according to my situation."

Thomas responded: “Under normal circumstances, the screenwriter would not say no.”

For those like Martin who are relatively particular, many film companies don't care about the original author's ideas after buying the script rights, and they can make changes as they want.

Even from the producer to the director to the leading actor and actress, as long as they have enough weight, they can all give advice on the script, and the screenwriter only listens.

Scarlett thought for a while and then said: "In order for you to live more comfortably in the future, I will find a way to give some gifts to your new roommate through the prison management."

He left with hope.

The next day, after the two parties negotiated all the conditions, Martin, on behalf of David Studio, signed an agreement with Carlton Cuse for the copyright of "Collapse", with a buyout price of US$1.5 million.

Scarlett took out a cigarette and placed it in front of Ryan Reynolds, but did not give it to him.

Ryan Reynolds, whose face was bruised, was tied to a chair, looked at Scarlett Johansson opposite, and asked: "What are you doing here?"

Because Martin's bid was not low, WMA was willing to facilitate it, and the negotiations between the two parties went relatively smoothly. A preliminary agreement was reached that afternoon, and Davis Studio bought out "San Andreas" for $1.5 million, which is also known as "Collapse". The copyright of the script.

More than half an hour later, Carlton Kuss and his agent came over. Martin did not come forward, so Thomas was asked to contact them first.

At the same time, screenwriter Carlton Cuse also agreed to make appropriate modifications to the script content and character settings based on Martin's actual situation.

Because of the private actions taken by the Fox Group and many left-wing organizations, after he entered the state prison, he was assigned a very special cell. Not only did he sleep in front of the toilet, he was also beaten from time to time.

In fact, Martin is also very interested in the rights to some old films in Warner Pictures' film library, but the previous situation has made him have concerns in this regard, and he will wait and see more about Daniel for the time being.

Thomas told the truth: "It's very difficult. The X-Men series is one of Fox's signature film series. Disney and Marvel have wanted to buy back the rights to the X-Men and Fantastic Four several times, but Fox has rejected them all."

According to the agreement, Carlton-Cuse needs to revise the script, and the revision work must be completed by August next year.

The reason why this **** found Michelle Bryan and did those dirty things with no bottom line was to impress the senior management of Fox, so that the character of Deadpool could be made into a separate project.

It's a pity that I have no future in Hollywood, and I can no longer be with Scarlett.

In the spirit of not wasting resources, Martin said to Thomas: "Go and contact 20th Century Fox. The target is Deadpool in X-Men and see if you can get the authorization to adapt the film."

California State Penitentiary, separate visiting room.

When the guard went out, she took out a cigarette, lit it, took a strong drag, and blew it in the direction of Ryan Reynolds.

Thomas said: "Okay, I will get in touch with Fox."

Scarlett nodded: "No problem."

“You are responsible for talking about it.” At this point, Martin suddenly remembered Ryan Reynolds whom Scarlett Johansson mentioned yesterday.

Ryan was addicted to cigarettes and felt uncomfortable all over.

The situation is very obvious. Ryan is overthinking and underestimates the terrifying nature of his ex-wife.

Before coming in, Ryan thought it would be sad inside, but after coming in, he found that it was even harder than he thought.

Ryan nodded repeatedly, wondering why he hadn't discovered Scarlett's good qualities before?

Having been beaten too hard recently, he hoped that Scarlett was really here to help him and agreed to meet.

Martin still has concerns about Warner Group.

"I heard that the cell you were in was very uncomfortable." Scarlett put the cigarette into Ryan's mouth and lit it with a lighter, as if she was just teasing.

The guard looked inside the bag and said, "It can't take too long. I'm at the door. If you need anything, call me immediately."

He is not in a hurry and can wait until the "Joker" movie is released.

Smoke billowed in his face, and Ryan Reynolds' hands were tied. He could do nothing but shout: "Light one for me."

General prisoners and their families do not enjoy this kind of treatment at all, but those who came here today are not ordinary people. They are rich and famous, and they have been cheering for the Donkey Party. They also have political connections.

"I heard that you're having a hard time. After all, we had a relationship. I'll give you something." Scarlett handed the things she brought to the guard and gave a suggestive look: "I can be alone with him. Want to chat for a while?”

Martin also knew that it would be difficult, and said: "Give it a try, co-production is also possible, but if it doesn't work... then forget it."

Ryan Reynolds is already in jail, and Scarlett, his ex-wife, will continue to torture him. He doesn't have to think about starring in "Deadpool" anymore.

　　Ryan said: "You help me change cells. I will be grateful to you forever."

Ryan breathed a sigh of relief. For the first time since the divorce, he felt that Scarlett was a good person. He said sincerely: "Thank you."

Scarlett asked: "It's uncomfortable and uncomfortable, right? I felt the same way when we got divorced!"

Ryan said: "You said you would give me something to make my life better here!"

Scarlett came out, met the assistant, got in the car, took out her mobile phone and dialed a number, waited for the call to be answered, and said, "I need your help with changing cells."

Scarlett looked at Ryan for a while and then said: "Okay, I will help you change it. Remember what you said."

The person over there was very direct: "Don't worry, Miss Johnson, I have selected Ryan Reynolds' new cell and new roommates according to your request. They are all the most aggressive **** men in the state prison."

"Very good." Scarlett, the ex-wife, laughed happily: "I have prepared some gifts for them, mainly soaps and the like. You can help me deliver them to them."

The person over there also laughed: "I understand, just do as Miss Johnson asks."

　　Scarlett felt inexplicably relaxed when she hung up the phone. Most ex-wives always have a hatred for their ex-husbands that cannot be vented.

"Drive back to Los Angeles." She became more and more excited. She simply took out her mobile phone and dialed Martin's number: "Come out and play together. I'll wait for you at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel."

Martin over there responded. Along the way, Scarlett was seriously considering how to make Martin more excited so that she could reward herself.

This is a very in-depth topic, so let's go to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel first and welcome Martin across the street.

Kyiv, Victory Square.

Thousands of people gathered here, and countless cameras and camera lenses were focused on the short man standing on the high platform in front of the monument in the square.

“Support Alexandrovich!”

I don't know who shouted first, and then countless people followed.

“Alexandrovitch!”

The uniform shouts were earth-shattering, and all the media reporters present looked sideways.

The appeal of this national hero among the people is astonishingly high!

Alexandrovitch stood on the high platform and waved to the audience.

The public responded more enthusiastically.

Today's rally was also a press conference. Alexandrovich and his Servant of the People Party officially announced their participation in next year's general election.

Through the media campaign such as 1+1 TV station, the rally caused a sensation.

Alexandrovitch took his wife Olina's hand and bowed together to the place where the people gathered.

The image of being friendly to the people is also one of his main cards.

On the top floor of the hotel on one side of the square, seven or eight people stood by the guardrail, looking at the center of the square.

One of them, Rebrov, the director of 1+1 TV station, was accompanying a gray-haired old man.

"I didn't expect that in just two years, he would have such a huge momentum." The old man's name is Igor, the chairman of Privat Group, and he has also been the governor of a state: "A "Servant of the People" , a rescue of women and children that made him the most famous person in the country."

Rebrov said: "When I first met Alexandrovich, he was still a little immature, but America's national hero Martin Davis prompted him to mature quickly."

Igor has some regrets: "It's a pity that I didn't meet Martin Davis last time I was in London."

Rebrov believes that the group boss takes it too seriously: "Although Martin Davis is known as a national hero of the United States and has a net worth of one billion US dollars, he is still essentially a star..."

Igor raised his hand and interrupted him: "You still don't know enough. When I was in London, I sent people to the United States to investigate Martin Davis's situation. The wealth in his hands is no more than mine." "Shao, you should know what this money means in a place like the United States. Also, he has great influence on the entire United States and even the Western world."

Rebrov nodded vigorously and asked: "Do we fully support Alexandrovich?"

Igor doesn't want to run for office in person, but because of his notorious reputation and sanctions from Western countries such as the United States, he can only choose a suitable agent. However, several candidates are oligarchs who directly compete with him.

Other than Alexandrovich, he had no other suitable candidate.

Igor said: "Just like what I talked to Alexandrovich, we will fully support Atta. As long as he succeeds, we can attack our competitors and use him to ease relations with the United States..."

Like all oligarchs, he is essentially a fence-sitter, favoring whichever side is advantageous.

Rebrov knew that the boss was not suitable to come forward in person, so he said so much to him and immediately responded: "I will communicate with Alexandrovich."

Igor nodded: "Don't let him escape our control."

Rebrov responded: "Yes."

Igor left here.

Rebrov saw Alexandrovich and his wife in the square getting off the platform, and the people automatically divided into two rows and lined the streets to see them off.

This national actor plays the role of a president who battles wits and courage with oligarchs and corrupt politicians in film and television dramas, and works wholeheartedly for national rejuvenation, thus winning the popularity of the people across the country.

Coupled with the incident of rescuing women and children, he will have unparalleled appeal in this country for a long time to come.

Also, he will definitely have the support of some Western groups

As long as Privat Group pushes hard from behind, the chances of success are quite high.

Seeing the couple getting into the car, Rebrov dialed Alexandrovich's phone number, and the two parties made an appointment to meet in the evening.

In the driving car, Alexandrovich hung up the phone. When the car gradually moved away from the downtown area, he asked the driver to stop the car and said to Olina: "Let's come down and take a walk. We haven't walked together for a long time."

　　It was extremely cold in Kiev in December, so Olina quickly put a scarf on him.

The two got out of the car and walked along the empty road.

Olina said: “The support from Privat Group has been great.”

Alexandrovich looked back at the car: "Because of this, there are some things I dare not say in front of the driver."

Olena understood her husband and asked in a low voice: "Are you worried about becoming the puppet that Igor put on the stage?"

Alexandrovich said: "His money and resources are not given in vain. If I am elected, I will definitely give them back."

Olina said: "Isn't this the case all over the world?"

“Actually, I have an idea.” Alexandrovich said slowly: “I had it when Privat Group first supported me.”

Oulina looked at him curiously.

Alexandrovich smiled: "I didn't mention it to anyone. I just thought about it alone. The idea gradually matured, but the pressure was also great."

Olina looks forward to becoming the first lady: "I am willing to help you share the pressure."

Alexandrovich lowered his voice: "Igor has an ambiguous relationship with the East and is increasingly ostracized by the Western world. If I become his agent, will I really favor the East in the future? Our efforts in the United States in recent years, It will all come to naught.”

He has already made up his mind: "If I can truly gain power, I plan to use Igor and the Privat Group as a vote, find ways to dismantle them, and give the Privat Group to Martin to operate. Martin has a certain influence in Washington." With great influence, high reputation, and political allies, with such a large amount of interests in hand, he will definitely be able to build a smooth communication bridge for us with the United States. "

Oulina fully supports it: “Your idea is correct, but it is difficult to implement.”

Alexandrovitch took her hand and continued walking forward: "From the time I left Kiev and ran to Paris to meet Martin, what was the easiest thing I did?"
