America gains both fame and fortune

Chapter 363: Roll Them to Death
Sherman Oaks, Coty Community.

Leonardo and Bar Refaeli each rode a bicycle to Martin's door.

The entertainment paparazzi following behind finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Driving or riding a motorcycle to follow two slow cyclists and shoot them is simply a torture, like a slow car race.

Leonardo got out of the car and rang the doorbell of Martin's house. The doorbell kept ringing, but no one came to open the door.

Bang! Bang!

Leonardo was so impatient that he smashed the iron door, kicked and hit it, and even shouted: "Martin Davis, you bastard, come and open the door! Open the door!"

Paparazzi frantically filming, is the relationship between the trio going to break down? Leonardo and Martin are enemies? This is big news.

Leonardo kicked the door for a while, then took out his cell phone to make a call. No one answered the call, and he couldn't help but frown.

Bar Refaeli asked, "Can't find Martin?"

She spoke in a high voice, and the sharp-eared paparazzi heard it and kept a close eye on that side.

Leonardo yelled, "Where did this bastard go? Why did he lose contact?"

Bar-Refaeli had no idea what was going on, so she asked, "Is there any unexpected situation?"

Leonardo looked anxious and shouted, "Let's go find someone!"

The paparazzi have a keen sense of smell and realize that big news is happening. Regardless of their daily tacit understanding with the stars, they gather around and want to find out what is going on.

All the paparazzi's eyes fell on a blonde, long-legged female paparazzi, motioning her to ask questions.

If someone else asks, Leonardo might get angry, but if the blonde with long legs asks, maybe he'll get the answer.

The female paparazzi asked loudly: "Leo, did you have a conflict with Martin? Did you come here specifically to smash the door?"

Leonardo stopped, his face showing undisguised anxiety, his brows furrowed: "Martin is missing."

"Missing?" The paparazzi smelled big news.

"Yes, he's gone." Leonardo said: "I can't find Martin. I can't contact Martin. It's been almost 20 days. I can't get through on the phone. Today I went to his house and it seems that no one is home. I just contacted his agent, and the agent is also trying to contact him."

The female paparazzi asked: "So, Martin Davis has lost contact?"

Leonardo nodded and said, "You are well-informed. Please help us find out where that bastard Martin has gone!"

The paparazzi didn't bother to ask any more questions and just took out their cell phones to make calls.

Leonardo, Martin's best friend, couldn't contact him, which meant that something had happened to Martin.

Leonardo stopped riding his bike, called a car, and drove straight to the WMA in Century City.

That afternoon, news about Martin's disappearance spread across the Internet through some entertainment blogs and gossip websites.

Some reporters even asked Jolie and Aniston, and the latter two said that they had not contacted Martin for some time.

The next day, Leonardo bought space in The Hollywood Reporter and Los Angeles Times and published a missing person notice!

"Looking for Martin Davis!"

The media immediately became enthusiastic and paparazzi all over Los Angeles were mobilized to look for news about Martin.

This kind of thing can't be allowed to ferment for too long.

That morning, Martin posted a message on his blog to tell everyone that he was fine, was in seclusion at the Four Seasons Hotel preparing for his new role, and did not want to be disturbed.

At noon, Leonardo's car stopped in front of the Four Seasons Hotel under the gaze of countless reporters and paparazzi.

Bruce came out to greet them and took Leonardo upstairs.

"Old Bu, I heard that Martin is dating Heath Ledger's fiancée, Michelle Williams?" Leonardo asked as he walked, "Is it true?"

Bruce said: "It should be fake."

Leonardo doesn't think so: "Doesn't he only like beautiful thirty-year-old women who have boyfriends or husbands?"

Bruce thought about it carefully and it didn't seem to be wrong.

The two took the elevator upstairs.

Bruce opened the door, and Leonardo saw Martin as soon as he entered, and unconsciously took two steps back.

Behind him, the door slammed shut.

Leonardo subconsciously wanted to open the door, because Martin opposite him had a grin on his face, looking like a pervert.

He is filled with evil and madness.

"Haha, Leo, long time no see." Martin flicked a card and it flew out of his hand: "Here's a gift for you."

Leonardo caught the card and found it was Zhang Dagui, and said, "I posted the missing person notice for you. You are so full of bad ideas."

Martin's voice remained the same, but the tone changed, making people's hair stand on end: "Don't you think it's fun to play tricks on them?"

Leonardo put away his playing cards and said, "I will only play with you if it's fun. If it's boring, I won't even bother to help you even if you pay me."

Rich people focus on having fun.

Martin gave another nice guy card: "Leo, you are a good guy." He laughed: "Don't you like fun games? When this job is done, I invite you to blow up Washington."

"You should invite Jack, he'll like it." Leonardo shrugged: "I'm more suitable for bombing supermodels."

Martin nodded and agreed: "Indeed, after all, it can be launched once every 11 seconds."

Leonardo gave him a middle finger: "I'm leaving."

Martin said: "No."

Leonardo went out, patted Bruce on the shoulder, and said, "It's not easy for you not to get angry." Bruce's face was full of sadness: "Life is really too difficult, especially to protect people like Martin."

Leonardo felt very sorry for Bruce: "One day you can be the insider, and we can do something bad to him together."

Bruce stopped talking.

Leonardo went downstairs and deliberately went out through the main entrance where reporters and paparazzi gathered, and stood in the most conspicuous place.

Reporters and paparazzi swarmed over.

"Is Martin in the hotel?"

"Has he been threatened or coerced?"

"Can you tell me what happened to him?"

Facing the excited reporters, Leonardo raised his hands and pressed them down, and when the voices died down, he said: "Martin is fine, and he didn't encounter any accidents, please rest assured."

He further said: "The reason why I couldn't contact him was because Martin was preparing for the role in the new film. He wanted to figure out the role and analyze the psychology of the character and didn't want to be disturbed by anyone."

Immediately a reporter asked, "What kind of character is this?"

"It's a very complex role, I don't know the details." Leonardo continued: "Martin has been hiding in the hotel for nearly 20 days to study the role, and it may continue for another two weeks. I hope everyone will not disturb him. Martin has been completely immersed in the role. I just said a few words to him and left quickly."

Reporters and paparazzi still have questions to ask.

The driver had already driven the car over. Leonardo said nothing more, opened the door and got in.

After the car left, the reporters and paparazzi could not enter the hotel and quickly dispersed in order to report the relevant events as soon as possible.

The fact that it involves both Martin and Leonardo is definitely big news.

Inside the hotel, Bruce saw Leonardo off, returned to the suite, and said, "Leo went down to face the reporters."

Martin nodded: "What about the news of the competitors?"

Bruce added: "Ivan photographed Adrien Brody, Josh Brolin and Robin Williams, and the news was sold."

Martin thought to himself that hard work must be done with comparison.

The next morning, news about Martin locking himself in a hotel for a long time and devoting all his energy to figuring out and studying sexual roles appeared in the entertainment pages of various newspapers and magazines.

…………

Warner Bros. Studios, The Dark Knight Studios.

Producer Charles Roven finished a busy day, took a few newspapers brought by his secretary, and started reading them quickly.

This is also a way to relax after work and a habit he has developed over a long period of time.

Charles Roven turned to the second page of The Hollywood Reporter, quickly scanned the page, and his eyes stopped on an entertainment news.

"Martin Davis has been found, Leonardo cancels the missing person notice!"

The newspapers published verbatim what Leonardo said in the interview in front of the Four Seasons Hotel. Charles Rowan skimmed through the part about Martin and then read it carefully again.

"He actually hid in the hotel and devoted himself to studying the role for so long." He nodded slightly: "Sure enough, the rumors in the industry that Martin Davis is dedicated and hardworking are not false rumors."

Warner Bros. has worked with Martin many times, and Charles Roven has also heard about Martin Davis' situation from other Warner producers.

He is very troublesome, but also very dedicated.

The project's production budget is as high as 1.8 million US dollars. Charles Roven is the most powerful person in the crew and also the person with the primary responsibility.

He certainly hopes that the leading actor will give his all for the role.

There was a knock on the door, and after Charles said "Come in", DC Comics director Orlin pushed the door open, pulled out a chair and sat opposite him.

Seeing the newspaper in front of Charles, Orlin said, "I heard Nicholson and Scorsese mention that when preparing for the audition for The Departed, Martin Davis went to the Boston Police Department and followed them to experience real life for nearly a month."

Charles Roven said: "It turns out it's not the first time. It's a good habit for a hard-working actor."

Both Batman and the Joker are their own treasures. Orlin feels comfortable to be valued so much by the actors. He said: "Martin's serious attitude is impeccable."

He then shook his head: "Others are a little worse."

Charles Rowan has had sufficient communication and communication with the Nolan brothers. The clown is a very complicated character, even surpassing Nicholson's version in 1989. The more fully prepared the actor is, the better.

Orlin added, "Compared to Martin, the other actors just treat our project and our roles as ordinary movie roles." He reminded Charles, "Look at the TMZ report."

Charles opened the TMZ website and saw a photo of Adrien Brody. After clicking on it, he discovered that this was a weekly street photography column of Hollywood stars.

There are many photos of celebrities shopping and taking vacations.

For example, Stallone took his three daughters to the beach.

Tyson and his 3,000-pound tiger.

Adrien Brody is enjoying the bright Mediterranean sunshine in Spain.

Tom Cruise goes shopping with his wife and daughter.

Josh Brolin threw a yacht party.

Robin Williams is enjoying his life on his farm with his family.

Despite the plethora of stars, Charles Roven found three actors who were involved with the crew.

These are all normal, after all, celebrities are also human beings, but compared to Martin Davis, it seems that they don’t take the role of the Joker seriously and don’t work very hard.

There is a huge difference in attitude, and his professionalism is not as good as that of young Martin Davis.
