American fame and fortune

The first screening of "The Reader" in a single theater was naturally full, and the second screening was almost full. Supporters of Martin and Kate could easily fill up the seats in the theater.

In order to control word-of-mouth and do a good job in word-of-mouth marketing, the crew's single screening will even last for two weekends.

Kate Winslet, who is aiming for the Olympics, spends a lot of money and bombards the media everywhere.

"Kate Winslet delivers one of the best performances of her career."

"Kate's performance is astounding, and Martin's role does not give way."

Compared with Kate, Martin's side is much lower-key and more pragmatic. Coca-Cola once again sponsored the Oscar impact funds, and even Brioni and Cadillac each provided a fee.

They also want Martin to wear his own brand and appear on the Oscars red carpet.

"This time, our goal is to be nominated for Best Actor." Thomas said very realistically, "It's too difficult to win an award.

Leonardo, who didn't run for the Olympics this year and didn't accompany him, came to Martin's place to join in the fun, and deliberately said: "The favorite of the old men in the academy, he moved to Los Angeles in the first half of the year to prepare for the Oscar winner.

Martin said the name: "Daniel Day-Lewis."

Jessica flicked through the computer data and said: "The "There Will Be Blood" starring him will be screened in Los Angeles soon. In the several pull conferences held so far, the word-of-mouth of the film and Daniel Day-Lewis' performance are all positive. Explosive."

Martin looked at Leonardo: "No wonder you didn't have an award-winning film this year."

"No way, the old men in the academy like him too much." Leonardo played against Daniel Day-Lewis and said, "You know? Compared with ordinary artists, Daniel Day-Lewis is more important in public relations. Even more shameless, he will participate in various activities in order to canvass votes, quite like Jack when he was young."

Martin nodded and said to Thomas: "You are in charge of the liaison, and if you can get a best actor nomination, it is a victory."

The brief meeting ended, Leonardo went out to answer the phone, and Jessica returned to the office.

Thomas found Martin alone and said, "Ali asked me specifically about your contract renewal."

Martin's three-year agency contract with WMA is about to expire, and many people are eager to move.

Instead of answering, he asked Thomas, "What do you think?"

This made Thomas feel like he was being taken seriously, as if Martin was referring to his opinion.

After four consecutive years of cooperation, Thomas also knows Martin better. After thinking about it, he said: "If WMA can reduce the brokerage share to 5%, the income from offline DVDs and movie copyrights in the later stage will also be reduced to what is in line with your status. ratio, I recommend continuing to choose WMA."

He put himself in the same position as Martin: "Our cooperation with WMA has always been good, and there have been no major conflicts. We cooperate with familiar people and companies, so that we can adapt to new companies. And WMA has also moved, I will assist you in running the Best Actor nomination with all your strength."

Now that Martin has made a decision, he will not hesitate: "Go talk to WMA, don't hang them up, if the talk is good, you can directly bring someone over to sign a new contract with me."

Thomas complied, returned to the agency after leaving, and went directly to Ali Emmanuel's office.

Martin checked the time, changed into a Brioni handmade suit, and went out with Leonardo to Kate's residence in Los Angeles.

Kate is throwing a pull party tonight and has a lot of people.

The car was parked on the side of the road, and when the two got out of the car, they met Brian Lord, a partner of CAA who also got off the car.

Seeing Martin and Leonardo, the latter had a strange expression on his face, so he took the initiative to say hello and said to Martin, "Let's talk alone."

Martin slowed down a little and asked, "What's the matter?"

Although there was some unhappiness between CAA and Martin, it did not delay Brian Lord poaching Martin: "Is your contract with WMA about to expire? Are you interested in joining CAA?"

Seeing that Martin didn't object immediately, Lord said again: "The terms of cooperation refer to the treatment of superstars in the circle. I will personally plan your career development for you."

Martin did not directly refuse, but put the pressure on Thomas and asked the agent to move forward: "I have a very happy cooperation with Thomas Ryan, and I am also a good friend in private. I have never thought about changing the agent."

Lord immediately heard that Martin didn't completely refuse, and he had to get his agent settled first.

Martin tends to continue to sign with WMA, but it is not necessary for WMA. CAA can be used to put pressure on WMA and strive for better conditions.

He took a few steps and caught up with Leonardo.

The latter said: "CAA wants to poach you? Actually, there is no need to deal with a brokerage company. After my last contract with CAA expired, I didn't sign a contract with any brokerage company."

Martin asked, "The entertainment bill?"

"It's not just me who is using a manager to get a job." Leonardo and CAA were very unhappy for a while: "Director Scorsese doesn't have a manager anymore."

Martin has self-knowledge and is currently inferior to Leonardo and Scorsese: "Your approach is not suitable for everyone."

The two entered the mansion and met the well-dressed Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes.

After greetings, Martin and Leonardo are at their leisure.

Needless to say the purpose of the latter, wherever there is a girl with blond hair and long legs, his eyes will fall there.

Leonardo pointed to the corner of the banquet hall: "Look there, your favorite."

Martin looked over and spotted Harvey Weinstein and Georgina Chapman.

Leonardo said: "In his early 30s, with outstanding looks and a husband, don't you like this?"

Martin was angry: "Stop slandering me, I am a dedicated person."

Having said that, Martin strode over.

Of course, Leonardo will follow behind to cheer and cheer, and take a look at the excitement by the way.

When approaching, Martin took the initiative to say hello: "Hi, Georgina, long time no see."

When Georgina saw Martin, her face was full of smiles, and she took the initiative to come forward to greet Martin, and said in a cheerful voice: "Angela Lindwald and Carolina you introduced, help me fight further. Into the fashion industry, my brand not only covers the entertainment industry and awards season, but also boarded the New York Met Charity Night this year."

Martin replied with a smile: "Congratulations, a very remarkable achievement."

Georgina showed a little closeness to Martin: "You are still willing to help, KK and Angela are full of praise for you."

Seeing Harvey Weinstein approaching, Martin said, "As long as I can help you, we work hard in the circle, there is no big problem, it is best to help each other."

These words fell into Harvey's ears, but Martin changed his direction and said, "You finally figured out the key point."

Martin said: "Harvey, I have always admired you very much. There may have been some misunderstandings between us in the past."

Georgina interjected: "Yes, if there is a misunderstanding, it's good to talk about it face to face." She looked at her husband: "Harvey, Martin is very nice."

Harvey Weinstein looked at Martin and said, "I'm throwing a party someday and I invite you and Leo to it."

Leonardo waited to see the good show, because in his opinion, Martin, the bastard, had ulterior motives, besides, he and Nicholson even made a handicap for Georgina Chapman, and answered first: "I'm fine. .”

Martin nodded with a smile.

Georgina took up the topic again and talked with Martin about her fun with KK and Angela Lindelwald.

After chatting for five or six minutes, Martin offered to leave.

Leonardo reminded Martin while walking: "Don't forget our bet, when will you start to act, do you need me and Jack to assist you? The two of us don't mind helping you more."

Martin's face turned black: "Am I the kind of person who specializes in making wives or girlfriends?"

Leonardo nodded solemnly: "You are."

Martin didn't bother to say much.

Harvey Weinstein was not involved in what happened with Pitt last year, and the News of the World did not expose the relevant news. Martin felt that Harvey Weinstein's Jewish identity might have played a role.

Jews in Hollywood are far too privileged.

An actor of Mel Gibson's level cursed the Jews after drinking, and his career fell off a cliff.

Martin could hold his breath, and it would be best if they each went their separate ways.

If Harvey still bites him, he also has ways to increase the size.

The screening session is indispensable in the pull-up meeting, but some of the highlights of the film are played.

Especially the part where Kate performed extremely well.

Similarly, in most of the plays where Kate appears, Martin is also the leading actor.

He also got a lot of attention.

Leonardo looked at the picture on the curtain, and suddenly stopped talking.

Until the video session ended, everyone dispersed.

Leonardo said to Martin: "I found out that you are better than me in terms of acting skills."

Martin is not humble at all: "I am better than you in many areas, such as 100 meters..."

Leonardo frowned and roared three times: "You came here in my car, believe it or not, I left you here?"

Martin shut up decisively and didn't say any more.

On the other hand, Harvey Weinstein did not follow Georgina home after leaving the filming session, but went to a nightclub to participate in a foot club party.

In the VIP room, Quentin took out a tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth.

If only every guest was like these perverts.

Quentin rolled up a tissue and threw it into the trash can. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Harvey, I have chosen the background of my new film. During World War II, Hitler was assassinated."

Harvey believed in Quentin's ability and said: "You are responsible for planning the project, and I will leave other issues to me."

Quentin added: "During the party last year, I had relevant considerations and wanted to use Brad Pitt as the leading actor, but in the current situation, there are still many lawsuits against Brad Pitt that have not yet been resolved. , without reaching a settlement, I dare not use him, and his appeal is hard to say now."

"Don't think about Pete." Harvey has paid attention to Pete's affairs and has enough understanding: "Let's stay away from him. As for the leading actor, I may have a good candidate. When you write the script, I will find him talk."
