MTL - American Fame and Fortune-Chapter 109 Saturn Award (Leader plus 10)

Chapter 109 Saturn Award (Leader plus 10)

 Century City, where Hollywood agencies gather.

 It’s not unusual to meet more than a dozen pairs of celebrities and managers when going out for a meal.

 Martin opened the bag he was carrying, took out the gift box and pushed it to Thomas across the dining table: "This is for you."

Thomas opened the box and asked: "Wolf teeth? No, there are no wolves in Australia. Crocodile teeth?"

　　What Martin said in a favorable light: "The crocodiles I hunted with my own hands and made with my own hands, don't look at them as precious, they are very rare."

“Thank you, it’s very meaningful.” Thomas put it away and said from a professional perspective: “You don’t plan to take the path of environmental protection and animal protection?”

Martin said bluntly: "I am a person who likes to enjoy myself. If I am really rich and famous in the future, of course I will do whatever I feel comfortable with. Environmental protection is too easy to overturn, and animal protection is easy to be criticized by people for eating meat."

He looked at the pile of meat in front of Thomas: "What would you do if someone asked you to change to a vegetarian diet?"

Thomas said: "I would have slapped him in the face."

 Martin enjoyed the steak and asked: "During this time, you must be working hard for our cause?"

Thomas then continued: "You broke up with Eliza too quickly. I originally had a plan to use the attention and hype caused by "The Girl Next Door". This movie has a good response among teenagers, especially Eliza. I I planned to discuss with Susan to promote the topic of the love between the male and female protagonists when promoting "Horror House of Wax Museum".

He has a big opinion on this: "You were impatient and broke up too quickly. You only kicked her on the red carpet of a premiere. You didn't maximize the value of this relationship!"

“I’m not opposed to using my private life to hype up, as long as it’s profitable, I’ll have no problem being the Truman of the real world.” Martin pointed to the meat on the table again: “Can you change to a vegetarian diet?”

Thomas glanced at Martin and seemed to understand. He stopped mentioning the matter and said instead: "I contacted Lionsgate. The "Zombie Gigolo" disc sold well. Last week, I talked to Lionsgate's publicity director. During Blake's interview, it was agreed that you would apply for the Saturn Award for Best Young Actor."

 Martin thought about it carefully and asked: "That film award established by the Science Fiction and Horror Film Academy?"

"Yes, that's it." Thomas said in detail: "There are six nominations for the Actor Award. As far as I know, the ones currently applying for this award include "Agent Cody", "Missing", "Hot Mom", " As for the actor's name, it's too unfamiliar, so I just remember Lindsay Lohan."

Among these names, Martin had heard of Lindsay Lohan and asked: "Can I get a nomination?"

Thomas said: "It is very difficult to win an award, and you have to find a way to nominate. The Saturn Awards still have a certain style. Unlike the newly created Teen Choice Awards, you can guarantee a nomination by going to the venue."

“I will cooperate with you on what you need to do specifically.” Martin is relatively new to the Saturn Awards. In his previous life, he focused on the Oscars and didn’t even pay much attention to the Golden Globe Awards.

Thomas said: "As long as we get the big guys from the science fiction and horror film academy, it will be easy to get nominated. I will call you when I need your cooperation."

 Martin asked again: “What about the new job?”

"Don't worry yet." Thomas said: "HBO has postponed the schedule of "Entourage". I am fighting for the company's resources that were originally inclined to Adrian. WMA is a big company and internal competition is fierce."

He stated in advance: "It is difficult for you to get the main role in projects that are not invested by Ms. Louise Meyer."

 Martin nodded: "I understand, "Horror House of Wax" has not been released yet."

Although the filming of this horror film has been completed, post-production has not yet begun. Including publicity and distribution preparations, it will not be released until the end of the year at the earliest. In Warner Bros.'s style, it may even be scheduled to spring next year.

 For a medium-sized film project, the preparation, shooting and production cycle is one year.

For those with investments of hundreds of millions, it may take more than two years from preparation to release.

 Thomas still said about the Saturn Award: "If you can win the Saturn Award for Best Young Actor, you will definitely establish an advantage in the competition for new actors in the company."

 Martin is very vulgar and knows the key: "Money? Gifts? Women?"

Thomas shook his head: "How much money do you have, and how much can you borrow? Those big guys are not short of this."

 After lunch, Martin said goodbye and left. Thomas sat for a while to further sort out his thoughts.

Martin is the most important client in Thomas' hands. WMA's star clients are not his turn to be responsible for. If he wants to climb up the ladder and cross the threshold of owning an independent office, he must have at least one star client in his hands.

 As for the partner level, there is no need to consider it for the time being.

Thomas returned to the company and just sat in the partition when he noticed Adrian passing by and going to the glass partition office.

 Adrian knocked on the door and entered John's office.

John frowned slightly: "Why are you here? I don't want you to rest for a while first?"

As usual, Adrian pulled out his chair and sat down with his legs crossed: "I have something I want to ask."

″

Adrian tilted his head and looked at John, pulled back his legs, and asked: "I have no money, so I only sold the car and the house for so little?"

John is no longer optimistic about Adrian's future, and even thinks that he has no future: "The contract and the tickets are all given to you."     Adrian's lawyers and accountants all came from the introduction of his agent: "You are in urgent need of funds and The woman has reached a settlement and needs money to get out of the whirlpool. I can't raise hundreds of thousands of Australian dollars even if I lose everything. If you agree to sell the house and car, I can only help you as quickly as possible. Is there any other way besides discounts? "

Adrian said: "The price you sold is too low."

John's expression was very helpless: "Am I going to watch you go to jail? We are not only agents and clients, but also friends. I can't let you go to jail. You are only 27 years old and you still have a lot of good years."

Adrian found someone to carefully read the contract, tickets, etc., and found that there were indeed no problems. He asked, "When will Entourage be broadcast?"

John said: "I have been urging HBO to schedule a schedule. Please be patient and wait. After this special period passes, everything will return to normal."

After asking a few more questions, Adrian left the office and went down to the first floor. As soon as he left the door, a short and fat man came over.

Tony wore his baseball cap backwards and handed Adrian the car keys: "My agent just called me and I can't accompany you anymore."

Adrian raised his head and his eyes slowly fell on Tony's face.

Tony shook the car keys.

Adrian took the car keys and walked to the parking lot.

Tony said softly: "Sorry, Ed, I need to eat too."

 Adrian did not look back, did not reply, and left alone.

 …

 Burbank, Warner Studios.

 Kelly, who came from Atlanta, just visited Warner's post-production studio with Louise.

Louise was wearing a dark business suit. When she saw no one around, she patted Kelly's **** gently: "Slut, I'm going to see the financial officer of the crew. You can walk around the Warner Studio by yourself. I'll wait for you after get off work." call you."

“Pervert!” Kelly gritted her teeth and said, “When that **** Martin arrives, I will settle the accounts with you.”

 Louis blinked: "How to calculate, where to calculate? Do you calculate in the middle?"

Kelly almost fainted and didn’t want to talk to her, so she walked out of the post-production room with high heels.

Hold on to the palm tree, the wind blew fresh air, and she finally let out the tight breath in her chest.

A battery car drove over and stopped on the sidewalk, and a familiar voice came to Kelly's ears: "The most beautiful masterpiece of the Creator, the most beautiful woman in Georgia, the incarnation of Aphrodite in the world, your car and driver arrive."

Kelly turned around, saw the masculine and handsome man, and immediately stretched out a hand.

Martin stood beside the electric car and helped Kelly get into the car.

Kelly said: "Let's go."

 Martin started the car and drove aimlessly around Warner Studios, asking, "Why are you here in Los Angeles?"

Kelly snorted coldly: "The salesperson I sent neither works nor contributes any effort, so he can only come over to do business in person."

 Martin did not accept these words and pointed to the backpack placed at his feet: "I brought you a gift from Australia and mailed one to you. I didn't expect you to come, so I sent you another one."

Kelly took the bag and opened it. There were two boxes of different colors inside: "Which one is for me?"

Martin said: "Beige."

Kelly took it out and opened it. Inside was a polished white and smooth animal fang.

 Her eyes fell on another dark gray box: "For Louise, that slut?"

 Martin responded: "Same."

"Let me take a look?" Seeing Martin's agreement, Kelly opened the box and found something different. In addition to the fangs, there was also a note in the box, which recorded the recipe for a cocktail called Honey.

Kelly took out a note and shook it: "For the slut?"

Martin said casually: "The latest masterpiece of bartender Louise Meyer."

Kelly said: "This shameless slut!" She suddenly thought of a great idea to get revenge on Louise: "I have the formula, let Louise ask for it from me."

  Martin asked, "What do you want this for? You're not interested in bartending."

"Of course it works." Kelly's smile suddenly became irreverent: "Martin, do you want Louise to be sweet between the two of us?"
