America gains both fame and fortune

Chapter 224: I'll post it if I really die
After a toast, Justin took Martin to meet several senior executives of the Coca-Cola Group, such as Brody, who was in charge of the marketing department.

Martin was well-spoken and able to get along with others, which impressed Coca-Cola executives.

Several senior executives left first.

Joey from the Public Relations Department said as they walked by: "I just asked our friends in the media, and they responded very well to the signing ceremony. Almost everyone believes that Martin is the most suitable spokesperson for Coca-Cola at this stage."

Brody said: "I have read the marketing department's analysis of his prospects. Martin has a very good development prospect. His personal image and public image are excellent. There are many topics surrounding him, such as gossip, which can keep him popular for a long time."

Joey agreed: "It's normal for celebrities to have a lot of gossip and scandals, which is actually a good thing."

Brody slowed down a bit: "I have a vision of whether Coca-Cola can create a long-term spokesperson."

Joey asked, “Like Nike did with Jordan and Woods?”

"Similar, but also different." Brody's idea is also preliminary, and it is hard to say whether it will succeed: "Entertainment stars are different from sports stars. Too many people who became famous in their 20s fell in just a few years. I am optimistic about Martin Davis, but I am only optimistic. Let's observe for two years before making a decision."

Joey completely agrees: "Entertainment stars should still be cautious."

The two of them went out, got on the electric car, and returned to the office area.

The party was over and there were reporters everywhere. Elena and her brother went back to the hotel first. Martin got into Bruce's car and was about to leave when Julie got into the car.

"I'm going back to Los Angeles soon." Julie had finished filming her scenes and was going back to attend the premiere of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. "I booked a flight for this afternoon to attend your coronation ceremony."

She looked at Martin and said seriously, "Teacher, I have a few questions for you."

Martin still has a conscience: "Just ask, classmate."

Jolie said: "I plan to officially inform Pitt of the breakup one month after the film is released."

Martin didn't intend to interfere: "It's your freedom."

Jolie asked: "There are more and more voices in the media that sympathize with Aniston and criticize me. If I go back, I will inevitably be exposed to the media's firepower. How should I deal with it? What I mean is, how can I maintain the heat while eliminating the negative impact."

"Remember what I told you?" Julie is the heroine of the wanted poster. Martin hopes that she can become more influential: "Use the name of the United Nations to go to the Middle East or Africa where the war has just subsided, to comfort the orphans there, and let the media that cooperates with you follow the whole process and report it in a timely manner."

Julie nodded: "I thought about it, and you confirmed my idea."

A good man like Martin would certainly come up with good ideas: "You can also choose the right time and person locally to adopt another orphan."

This touched Julie's heart: "What a good idea!" She asked Martin, "How about you be their father?"

Martin did not refuse directly, but asked: "Do you think it's appropriate?"

Julie immediately thought that letting Martin be the father of her children would mean that he would leave those women. What was the point of that?
The hotel was in sight ahead, and Martin said, "I hope your film will be a big hit and you'll have a comeback."

Julie smiled and continued, "Thank you for your teaching, teacher. When you return to Los Angeles, I should go to the Middle East or Africa. If I'm unlucky..."

Martin interrupted her: "Don't talk nonsense, you won't be in danger if you follow the UN."

Julie joked: "If something really happens, you have to save me. I'm going to die in the war, so find a way to bring me back."

Martin thought to himself that you are just raising the flag randomly. Fortunately, this is reality and not a movie. If it were a movie, you could prepare the funeral in advance.

When the car arrived at the hotel entrance, Julie got out first and left.

Martin glanced at her, and an uncontrollable thought popped up in his mind: if Julie really died in a charity event in the Middle East or Africa, the movie Wanted would definitely be a huge hit.

Is there any better publicity than a dead lead actor?

The leading actor just kicks his legs and the film makes a fortune.

Martin was just thinking about this kind of thing randomly.

Thomas knocked on the door and came in. He took a big sip of water and said, "I just received a notification from the company that the $400 million endorsement fee has arrived. After deducting the agency fee, it will be transferred to you tomorrow."

This was the largest sum of money Martin had ever earned. He was so excited that he jumped up from the sofa and bumped fists with Bruce.

"Jesus God, Satan Judas!" He laughed happily and said nonsense: "Uncle Martin finally has money to buy a house and a car!"

Bruce was also laughing, and he was one of the reasons why. He couldn't help but wonder what gift he should buy for Khloe... no, for Kim and Khloe?
House? That's impossible, he plans to use Martin for the next few years.

After all, I promised to keep an eye on Martin. How can I do that if we don't live together?
Martin paced back and forth in the living room of the suite, venting his excitement: "Find a modeling agency, I want to hire a hundred female models!"

He looked at Thomas again: "Hey man, you're WMA's agent, do you know any Victoria's Secret Angels? I heard they have price tags? Help me contact a few! AA, Lima, KK, Heidi, Lindwall, Bundchen, all are fine."

Thomas added, "Bundeschen is Leonardo's girlfriend." He reminded, "I don't know if the ones you mentioned have price tags, but if you want them to be interested, it will cost at least seven figures."

Bruce threw a bottle of ice water to Martin. "Are you done? Clear your head. If you don't, I'll go to South City and find you ten black women, the kind that weigh 500 pounds."

As soon as he said this, Martin instantly returned to reality. It was too scary! "Old Bull, you want to murder me!" He unscrewed the bottle cap and drank a third of it in one breath: "It's much easier to express my urge to do something when I say it out loud."

Bruce knows him better: "Ten black women are not enough, I can find ten more."

The emotions aroused by the large sum of money calmed down a little. Martin shrugged and said, "First, we will deal with the properties in Los Angeles and Atlanta, and then we can talk about other things."

He gave Bruce a middle finger: "Big size black woman or something, I reward you."

Bruce turned to Thomas and asked, "Do you want it? It's free! You work so hard, you should relax for a while."

Thomas is already tired enough from carrying weights normally, and if he has to carry ten more five-hundred-pound weights, that wouldn't be relaxing, it would be life-threatening.

He quickly shook his head: "I can find a girlfriend."

Martin glanced at Thomas, his forehead becoming brighter under the light.

But on second thought, if an agent’s career is successful, would having a girlfriend still be a problem?

Martin felt that he should encourage Thomas, and said, "Guys, we are still on the road, and we are still a long way from the top of the mountain. We cannot be complacent with this little income, because there will be tens of millions of yuan in rewards waiting for us in the future."

Thomas has seen the hope of becoming a millionaire and is confident in Martin's future: "I will go back to Los Angeles tomorrow and find new opportunities for you."

Bruce thought to himself, this guy is okay in finding a female companion, but he will definitely blow every one he finds a girlfriend.

Thomas's phone rang at this time. He answered the call and talked for a while. After hanging up, he said to Martin, "Jessica called. Many of your fans have watched the live broadcast or the video online, and now the reaction is very strong."

Martin was well prepared: "Say hello to Coca-Cola and send commemorative Coke to several cities where fan clubs have been established."

Thomas stood up: "I'll contact them right away."

Martin walked him to the door and called Mene.

A few minutes later, Mene came up from the lower level.

Martin was curious: "I didn't see you this morning?"

Mene smiled awkwardly, "Aren't there three crews in the studio? The assistant producer of one of the crews is a woman. She has been getting close to me recently. I went out with her to do some things this morning."

Bruce praised: "Already working on the next job."

"Yes, she knows someone in the crew, and it's not the PD or FBI who are fishing for her." Mene made a special explanation: "She is less than 40 years old and has some say in the crew."

Martin said, "You decide for yourself." He checked the time and said, "Let's go out for a drink. We have to celebrate."

When going downstairs, Martin called stuntmen Buck and Lewis, action director Chad and others.

When the first two crews are on break, they usually stay in their rooms playing games, and they have recently become obsessed with CS.

The latter has been drawing a lot of action scene sketches lately.

When I came down, I took it and showed it to Martin.

Martin looked through it carefully and said, "A continuation of the Wanted poster story?"

Chad took a sip of wine and said simply, "Didn't your studio buy all the copyrights to the comics? If this movie is successful, can Wesley's story continue? Of course, these are my preliminary thoughts and they are immature."

Martin looked at the sketch and could only say it was just a sketch: "If you want to expand on this movie, I support you. I actually have some ideas, but they are not appropriate at this stage."

He said roughly: "If Wanted is successful, we will be more mature in film, and then we can talk about it in detail."

Bald Buck said at this time: "It's break time, don't talk about work. Come, have a drink together and congratulate Martin by the way."

Martin picked up his glass and clinked glasses with everyone: "Cheers."

Mene took the bottle and poured more wine for everyone.

They stopped talking about work and started chatting about some interesting things.

The next day, Martin took half a day off to accompany Elena and her four siblings to look at houses. They chose Robert's community, which is located in Northville, a satellite city of Atlanta. Most of the community residents are senior white-collar workers or executives of large companies, and it has the best primary and secondary schools in Georgia.

The two-story independent villa with a small garden cost a total of US$38, which was paid for by Martin himself.

Elena will use her part-time job as a saint of the Coke Cult to slowly pay back the debt...

Martin specifically told her to hold a moving-in party before the crew left, inviting the community committee and neighbors to attend, and he would also invite some people to help out.
