Chapter 717 Don’t lie to your own family
Beverly Hills, Davis Estate.
After selecting a few bottles of good wine from the wine cellar, Martin returned to the living room and found that Leonardo, Nicholson, Saoirse Ronan and others were gone.
He saw Elizabeth coming out of the kitchen and asked, "Where are they?"
Elizabeth pointed outside: "Everyone went to the yard."
Martin took her and came out of the villa together, and found that everyone was at the Fountain Square.
It was getting dark, and the lights were on in the square.
Leonardo picked up a pipe with a handle and pointed it at the sky at an angle of 45 degrees.
Nicholson flicked his cigar, lit a special firework bomb, stuffed it into the tube, patted Leonardo's head at the same time, and shouted: "Let it go!"
Martin was anxious and shouted: "Don't set off the fireworks! Don't set off..."
With a bang, a spark flew up into the sky with a trail of flames, and exploded, filling the sky with fiery trees and silver flowers.
The crew and Disney Pictures have reached an agreement that the first goal is Martin's best actor.
In terms of Best Director, Ridley Scott made it clear that he would give up subsequent public relations promotions.
Martin was too lazy to care anymore and took Elizabeth back: "Let's go prepare dinner."
Martin said: "Don't worry about them."
Without a nomination, no matter how hard he struggles, it will be in vain.
The agent came over early in the morning to visit Matt Damon.
After successfully eliminating Matt Damon through the bad competition, Martin is almost unique in the nomination list.
But Matt Damon has never regretted it. If he hadn't done these bad things, he wouldn't be where he is today.
At this nominees luncheon, the crew of "The Martian" gained a lot, winning Best Art Direction, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Effects, Best Visual Effects, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actor, Eight nominations including Best Director and Best Picture.
Nicolson lit another firework bomb, which was sent into the sky by Leonardo and exploded, lighting up half the sky.
"One more shot! Keep going!" Leonardo shouted: "Martin, let's give it a try. The worst we can do is ask Jack to give you an Oscar. He has three."
The bad things he did in the past finally cost him something.
Martin scratched his head, these two **** actually set off fireworks at halftime to celebrate!
Saoirse saw Martin and Elizabeth and shouted: "Teacher, Liz, come and set off the fireworks together."
Martin spread his hands: "After causing harm to outsiders and harming our own people, you are worthy of being the two biggest **** in Hollywood!"
It only took one night for Matt Damon to fully accept the fact that he would bid farewell to this Oscars early.
Elizabeth noticed that the people around her had stopped, and her hands were as heavy as a cow.
…
Entering the living room, he said: "Steven Soderbergh is preparing to shoot a biographical film about the pianist "Libras". You have collaborated with him many times. If you are interested, you can ask Soderbergh. Over there, I believe he will not reject you."
Nicolson shouted: "Martin, don't stop it. Leo and I just want to find out one thing, whether the half-time celebration will really lose the game."
The next thing to do is to prevent cold explosions.
Elizabeth smiled and comforted him: "Leo and Jack have done a lot this time, we must let them celebrate."
Matt Damon knows that biopics are easy to win awards. He has always had a good relationship with Soderbergh and said: "I will call Steven later."
The agent was worried that he would always be entangled in this matter, and specifically said: "Oscars happen every year, but this time it won't work. Let's fight for the next one. There is no need to struggle with the first one, and there is no need to struggle with Martin Davis." clear."
Matt Damon was silent, with a simple and honest look on his face, and seemed to have listened.
The agent glanced at his watch and picked up his bag: "I'm leaving first. If you need anything, call me. You can take a good rest first."
“Wait a minute.” Matt Damon couldn’t hold it back in the end, and called out to his agent, saying, “Keep in touch with the media and expose all the dark materials we have prepared about Martin Davis.”
The agent couldn't help but shake his head, what kind of dirty information is that? Throwing rave parties, hooking up with the neighbor's fiancée, and having **** with many supermodels, what do these mean to a Hollywood star?
He said: "It's of no use. It won't hurt Martin Davis. It may even make him more attractive. This is Hollywood, not Washington."
Matt Damon said: "I didn't get the nomination. Now Martin Davis is the favorite. If we can drag him back a little bit, we can't get it, and he can't get it easily."
Faced with a client of Matt Damon’s level, the agent couldn’t refuse: “Okay, I’ll try my best.”
When the first negative news appeared, Matt Damon didn't even think about it and directly thought it was related to Martin Davis.
It’s not that he didn’t think about fighting back, but after many investigations, he couldn’t find a point to fight back.
This **** has never had **** with anyone under the age of 18, has not forced himself on other women, has not done any tax evasion, etc.
Usually he looks like one of the top **** in the industry, but in fact his bottom line is higher than most people in Hollywood.
Matt Damon got in his car, left his mansion and went to the state prison.
Today is the scheduled visitation day.
Matt Damon met his former good friend Ben Affleck. Seeing him looking thin, haggard and restless, he suddenly felt that he was really lucky not to be involved by Harvey and the Affleck brothers.
In the past, Matt Damon himself has lost count of how many bad things he did in order to please Harvey Weinstein. In the past two years, the situation in Hollywood has changed dramatically.
Big bosses like Harvey were sent in.
After coming out of the state prison, Matt Damon got into the car and sat in silence for half an hour.
He picked up his cell phone and dialed his agent's number: "It's me. Forget all the things I said this morning. It's no longer necessary. Let's keep our strength and wait for the next opportunity, the next awards season."
The agent said: “A very smart decision.”
Matt Damon hung up the phone, started the car, and when he drove out of the parking lot, he looked back at the state prison. He didn't want to end up here.
This time in Oscar public relations, Matt Damon saw one thing clearly. Regardless of money and power, fame and status, he and Martin Davis are no longer on the same level.
That is to say, he has a little more brains than Ben, applies pressure only and does not do anything illegal.
…
On a sunny afternoon, Elizabeth Olsen woke up in a daze and touched her side. Martin was not there.
There was a faint sound of water coming from the bathroom.
Elizabeth was too tired to move, and was confused for a while. She took a yacht advertising album, flipped through two pages, and threw it aside.
Although getting a yacht named Elizabeth is very attractive, after careful consideration these days, she feels that the usage rate of the yacht is too low, so she can temporarily retreat and it is better to buy a private business jet.
Whether it’s her, Lily, or Martin, they take too many flights every year.
Elizabeth pulled a cushion over and rested her chin on it, feeling lazy all over. She couldn't help but think of the idea that came up last time.
Lily has a very good relationship with her. When they were in Los Angeles, they basically lived here.
And Lily complained more than once.
The bathroom door opened, and Martin looked at his phone. There were messages from Chad and Marcus on it. He said to Elizabeth: "I'm going out."
Elizabeth nodded.
After Martin changed clothes and went out, she took out her mobile phone and dialed Lily's number: "When will you come back? It's nothing important. I'm fine here. I'm calling you. I just want to tell you that I've prepared something for you." A surprise, I also want to give Martin a surprise.”
"Surprise? It's not a shock, right?" Lily felt that Elizabeth had evil intentions: "It sounds like you are plotting against me!"
Elizabeth said: "Of course it's a surprise. My family doesn't lie to my family."
Lily has also been paying attention to entertainment news recently: "Before the Oscars, I always have to go back and congratulate that **** for winning the Best Actor."
Elizabeth cautions: “Don’t pop the champagne at halftime.”
Lily responded: "I understand."
Martin left Beverly Hills and came to the El Capitan Theater in the Hollywood area.
This place has been newly decorated in preparation for the premiere.
Martin got off the car and entered the theater. Marcus, Chad, and Chen Hu were all here, as well as the distribution producers of Disney Pictures.
Marcus personally set up the display rack and laid out the promotional materials for "Lone Survivor".
This very politically correct film is about to be released.
Considering the character and Mark Wahlberg's possible changes, the film was postponed to be released in January.
Martin is an investor in the film, and Disney Pictures cooperates with him. Of course, he has the final say.
Marcus stood in front of the booth and said: "It's finally going to be released."
Martin patted his thick shoulder: "The pre-sale situation is very good. This movie will definitely make people remember what you have done."
The fat on Marcus’s double chin trembled a few times and he said: “I invited their family members to come over.”
Martin basically doesn’t care about these little things now. Emily and Jessica are enough to handle the daily management of Davis Studio.
After chatting about "Lone Survivor", Chad came over to find Martin: "Whenever you have time, go to the Angel Club. We have designed some new action routines."
Martin asked directly: “Can I do it?”
Chad smiled: "It's somewhat difficult."
Martin said casually: "You won't let me fly into space and hit satellites, right?"
"How could it be?" Chad said: "It just has more close combat combined with pistol shooting. After all, what we are shooting is an action movie, not a science fiction movie."
Martin followed them to visit the layout of the premiere theater and made sure there was no problem. Then he invited Chad, Chen Hu and Marcus to wash their faces together and talk about the preparations for "John Wick 3".
When I feel refreshed and refreshed, I talk about creation, and my creative ideas flow out like a fountain.
