American fame and fortune

Chapter 288: Sponsorship is also required for winning prizes

In February 2006, the weather in New York began to warm up. Under the coordination of Warner Bros. and WMA, the crew broke through the obstacles and could shoot exterior scenes on the streets of New York.

The first stop was Central Park in case Wollman Rink thawed.

Because of the relationship between Martin and Aniston, the crew also attracted a large number of media reporters to watch and follow the filming.

"Never Ending" has enough exposure for the time being, and there is no need to actively make news.

The filming of the crew proceeded step by step, except for some complaints about road closures during filming, there were basically no other troubles.

On weekends, Martin made time to go to Fifth Avenue.

When he came to Tiffany and looked at it briefly, he waved his hand: "This, and this, I want it."

Men buy things to highlight a fast!

Go straight to the goal, don't hang around, don't be long-winded.

Martin went to swipe his card, got a ruby ​​necklace and a sapphire necklace, took the special line for valuables, and mailed them to Los Angeles and Atlanta respectively.

This is for Louise and Kelly.

Later, I went to buy a three-piece set of necklaces, earrings and bracelets, and also mailed them to Atlanta for Elena.

There are also people who want to give away. Unlike the crocodile teeth and horn sculptures, Martin does not intend to give the same brand, and then went to Cartier and Chanel respectively.

The necklace bought by the latter, he will go to Louisiana to visit the class on Valentine's Day, and then give it to Blake Lively.

I bought a bracelet inlaid with pink diamonds from Cartier, which is a gift for Aniston.

As for Julie, Martin had forgotten all this time.

Julie never looked back on the way to the Virgin Mary. After the promotion of the DVD release of "Wanted Order", she flew to Afghanistan and other places to investigate refugee issues on the spot.

Martin called her, and Julie's next role is also closely related to mother and child. It is called "Change of Suspects", a film directed by old cowboy Eastwood, and it is a guarantee for the award season.

Julie's future development plan is very clear, which is the modern Mary.

For gifts from five people, Martin brushed away more than 100,000 US dollars.

When you should be generous, you must not be stingy.

This is what Leonardo told him after Martin asked him about his experience.

What others say may not be reliable, but this single-minded superstar has dated dozens of formal and informal girlfriends, not only did none of them jump out at him, they even kept saying good things about him.

Playboy can do this level, looking at the whole of Hollywood can be regarded as unique.

After completing the mailing procedures, Martin and Bruce carried a few bags and got into the car together to return to the hotel.

Bruce drove out of the parking lot and said, "You're so generous, unlike the Martin I know!"

Martin said: "The main reason is that I was sick before, and it has not been cured."

Bruce wondered: "Why didn't I know you were sick?"

Martin simply explained: "Poor and sick! With only two or three hundred thousand dollars, who dares to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy gifts for women? I'm not a love brain."

"That's right." Bruce began to feel that it made sense, and the car drove through an intersection, thinking about it: "No, it's not right!"

He broke through the fog and penetrated the essence: "Heath Ledger paid for you! He paid you $200,000!"

Martin retorted: "The mental supplement he gave me, isn't it my money? Is it not my money?"

Bruce couldn't argue.

"What did you gift the Kardashians?" Martin asked.

Bruce said deliberately: "Tusk pendant and horn carving, clown type."

Martin put his middle finger directly in front of him.

Bruce told the truth: "A designer bag, one for Kim and Kohler." He is a bad person, with more thoughts: "I asked Jin if she would like to give one to each of her family? Kim said that this time period is not suitable. "

Martin finally understood: "No wonder I sometimes look perverted. It turns out that you influenced me unknowingly!"

Bruce disdained: "It's clear that you influenced me!"

The two bad guys discussed bad things and went back to the hotel.

Martin entered the suite and found that Aniston, who was away visiting friends, had returned.

She changed into home clothes and came out of the bedroom with a gift box in her hand.

Then, seeing the Cartier bag in Martin's hand, he couldn't help laughing: "We have such a tacit understanding?"

Martin teased her: "It's not a gift for you."

"Yes, you have a girlfriend." Regardless of Martin's words, Aniston came over and grabbed Martin's left hand, took off the watch on his wrist, and put it on the sofa next to him.

Martin asked, "A Valentine's Day gift for me?"

Aniston disassembled the gift box: "I have a little lover who pays me hundreds of millions every day. Valentine's Day is coming, so I have to give my little lover something in return."

Martin tugged at his sleeve.

Aniston took out a Patek Philippe men's watch and stuffed it into Martin's hand: "Let's see if you like it."

Martin found that there was a word on the back of the watch case. On the other hand, there was a line of cursive English engraved on it—Martin, Jennifer will always remember you.

Aniston took the watch, put it on Martin, and said at the same time: "Don't be too moved, we are just lovers, not boyfriend and girlfriend, let alone get married."

Martin was helpless: "You can't let me fantasize for a few more seconds. I imagine that I married a billionaire woman named Aniston. From then on, I don't have to work hard and I can lie flat every day."

Aniston put on the watch, like the most caring big sister, and tidied up Martin's sleeves: "If you lie flat, the world will lose a billionaire."

"I would like to borrow your words." Martin opened Cartier's gift box, took out a bracelet inlaid with pink diamonds, and put it on for Aniston.

The little milk dog has a heart, and Aniston is also happy, saying: "Actually, the gift you gave last time was very good." She asked curiously: "Who is Lily Carter?"

Martin replied: "I have a younger sister in Atlanta. She has a very good carving talent and is going to apply for the California Institute of the Arts this year."

"The sculpture department there is pretty good." A woman in her thirties really wanted to be considerate and consider every aspect of a man. Aniston was in a heated relationship with Martin and asked, "Need me to write for you?" A letter of recommendation? I'm on good terms with Delane, the vice chancellor at CalArts."

Martin quickly responded, "Of course! Jane, you are the best lover in the world."

Although the neighbor Mr. Jones will provide a letter of recommendation, it is not a bad thing to have a few more letters of recommendation from celebrities.

Aniston said: "The main thing is that Lily Carter's carvings are good and very useful."

Martin had seen how Louise and Kelly used his statue, and he understood it instantly.

"Want to see it?" Aniston opened a suitcase and took out the clown sculpture.

Without further ado, Martin dragged her into the bedroom.

Who wouldn't want to watch a movie starring Aniston live, but who knows a little about Hollywood?

On the eve of Valentine's Day, the production crew deliberately had a holiday, and dozens of people rushed away.

Even Robert De Niro, a good guy, has to go home to create a seventh gold swallowing beast.

Martin went to Atlanta first, and then flew from Atlanta to Louisiana. He spent three consecutive days traveling and exploring. When he returned to New York, he slept for more than ten hours before he recovered to a full state of energy.

While giving out gifts, Martin received four more brand-name watches.

He also couldn't understand why women like to give watches?

Martin specially marked the watch box, indicating who gave it to him, so as to avoid the trouble of wearing it wrong when he got it.

Don't overturn the car because of such a small thing.

A few days after the filming resumed, Aniston finished filming all the scenes and returned to Los Angeles to deal with the termination of the contract with CAA.

Thomas came to New York again, bringing WMA and Warner Bros. related release plans.

Ali-Emanuel saw some samples of Martin's role in "The Departed" through his relationship, and confirmed that the role exceeded the normal level of the awards season by a lot, and immediately asked his staff to start preparing for the awards season.

"The North American awards season, in the early 1990s, still started in December."

In the suite, Thomas explained the specific situation in detail: "But since the mid-1990s, the traditional set has become difficult to use. To be precise, the current awards season starts from the Toronto Film Festival, and there are even some Movies have been competing for awards since the Cannes Film Festival in May, but European film festivals have little influence on the Oscars, so ignore them and basically ignore them.”

Martin had also heard Louise analyze awards season before.

Thomas continued: "Warner Bros. and Scorsese agreed that the Toronto Film Festival is very suitable for the world premiere of The Departed. From the Toronto Film Festival, WMA will invest resources, launch relationships, and build momentum for you."

"Be specific." Martin asked practically.

Thomas said: "After Ali handles the signing of Aniston, he will personally negotiate with Warner Bros. and the crew, so that the crew's publicity and marketing expenses will be properly invested in you."

He is actually very clear that if Aniston does not sign a contract with the company, the company will not make actual investment. PR."

Martin knew that funding was the key to Oscar's operation, and said, "Do I need to raise some expenses here?"

Thomas told the truth: "Parties, lobbying, advertising, and gift-giving all require money. If you don't invest money, you will not get anything from the Oscars. The Oscars have little to do with art in essence, but a game of fame and fortune."

Martin is ready and has a plan: "I talked about the Oscars with Coca-Cola, and they said that as long as the endorsement effect is good, they can sponsor me to win the award."

Thomas is not surprised, because when other celebrities compete for awards, the endorsement brands will also exert their strength.

His agent took the initiative to take it over: "I'm going to communicate with Coca-Cola."

Martin nodded: "Then I'll leave it to you."

Thomas added: "Warner Bros. has confirmed the schedule for "Never Ending" and it will be released early next year."

He said another key thing: "I'm not sure what Leonardo thinks about the next awards season, you'd better talk to him, it's not easy for you to have a good relationship with him, don't make trouble because of this kind of thing." contradiction."

Martin said: "The crew is about to finish filming, and I will find Leo when I get back to Los Angeles."

Hey, I passed away last night, less than four days after the onset of illness.
