America gains both fame and fortune

Chapter 533 Not Pretty Enough, So Rejected

Looking at Beckham and Victoria who were walking quickly towards him, Martin thought to himself, could it be that he had fooled these two people with his nonsense?
In my impression, Victoria is as smart as a monkey.

The two of them were obviously focused on Victoria. She came to Martin and said, "What you said just now is very novel."

Martin never thought of becoming a leader like Scientology. He said: "I am an actor and I am good at improvisation."

Victoria was stunned: "Uh..."

Beckham replied: "Martin, you are an honest and reliable person."

"This is well-known in Hollywood." Martin was helpless: "Tommy helped me and invited me to the party. I couldn't not come, but there were some things I didn't like, so I had to think of other ways."

The couple came here because of Tom Cruise.

Victoria replied, "We don't like it either." She was a very smart woman and asked directly, "Can we join your Coke cult?"

Martin was a little surprised and said, "Of course you can. The Coke God Church is a pan-faith church. We will not require you to attend classes, nor will we purify the hearts and souls of the believers. We will not ask for donations. You only need to buy a commemorative edition Coke and register on the official website to become a member of the Coke God Church."

Such an organization sounds more reliable than Scientology.

Beckham said: "We went back and immediately joined the Coca-Cola cult."

Victoria's joining was not her purpose, so she asked Martin, "Does our Coke Church have regular gatherings?"

Martin hadn’t thought about that for the time being: “Not yet.”

"As far as I know, many people are interested in the Coca Cola Cult." Victoria wanted to make more contacts through a reliable organization, which is also the main reason why she got close to Tom Cruise.

She sincerely suggested: "Master, why don't you consider establishing a mechanism for regular gatherings?"

Martin thought for a moment and said, "I'll think about it seriously."

Victoria and Beckham shook hands and said goodbye to Martin and his group, and watched them get into the car and leave.

After sending Mene away, Martin and Bruce returned home and asked before getting out of the car, "Old Bruce, shall we set up a gathering mechanism?"

Bruce always treated Martin's drunken words as a joke: "Don't you want to dissolve the Federation? Maybe this will be your first step."

Martin thought about it for a while and said, "It seems like a good idea to be a platform for exchanging personal connections and resources."

He took note of this matter and asked Thomas to communicate with Coca-Cola later.

At the beginning, we must rely on Coca-Cola's resources.

Back at the villa, Elizabeth was surprised: "You're back so early?"

Martin went over and hugged her: "You're leaving tomorrow, I need to spend more time with you."

The housekeeper gave Bruce a look and the two of them left the villa.

Martin picked up Elizabeth and carried her upstairs.

Bruce came to the fountain, took out his cell phone and made a call: "Hi, Kohler..."

He was interrupted by someone on the other side: "Old Bu, are you coming over tonight? Jin is here too."

Bruce said, "I'll be right there."

This was destined to be a night of continuous gunfire.

The next morning, Martin went to the airport to see Elizabeth off and went to Warner Studios to meet Nolan first.

The investigation into the shooting on the set has not made much progress. Tom Hardy, who fired the shot, is in trouble and is still a suspect. The LAPD has ordered him not to leave Los Angeles in the short term.

Fortunately, the client’s injuries were not serious, and the crew and the insurance company are negotiating with him about agency compensation.

If we give up pursuing responsibility, there will be much more room for maneuver in the future handling of the matter.

Nolan told Martin: "The earliest we can resume filming is next week. Fortunately, after the news was exposed, the film attracted more attention, and the crew did not suffer losses in vain."

Martin said: "Chris, you have the ability to turn decay into magic and always guide public opinion."

Nolan said directly: "Actually, I learned from you. I learned a lot from you, especially in publicity."

Martin started from his own safety: "The management of props on the crew must be strengthened."

Nolan agreed: "I'm going to send Anderson over there. There must not be any more accidents."

The name sounded familiar, and after thinking about it, Martin remembered that it was the screenwriter who was good at recording realistic behind-the-scenes footage.

Nolan added: "Anderson may not be good at other things, but he never compromises when it comes to carrying out the tasks I assign him."

Martin fully believes this, and most screenwriters would not be able to write such exciting and true behind-the-scenes footage of the crew.

After Martin said goodbye and left, Nolan came to the office window alone. The incident in Morocco had a great impact on him. He always felt that the shooting was related to the Jews.

…………

Near noon, Martin received a call from Thomas, and Ary-Emmanuel asked him to play golf at the Los Angeles Country Club.

When Martin went over, there was a woman besides Thomas and Ali.

Ali's number one female client Natalie Portman.

She was wearing a white sun hat and light-colored women's golf pants and looked very thin.

It’s a bit like the pork ribs spirit that Martin often saw in Hengdian in his previous life.

Martin went over, bumped fists with Ali, and said, "You picked the sport I'm least good at." Ali laughed and said, "Because golf is the only sport I'm sure I can beat you in."

He introduced: "This is Natalie; Nat, this is Martin, I think this is the first time you meet."

Martin gently shook the hand Natalie extended to him: "Matilda in Leon was my childhood idol."

Natalie smiled and said, "I took on such a role because I was ignorant when I was little."

Martin's words changed again: "I like Padmé-Amirada just as much."

Ali pointed to the electric car on the side and said, "I'll be the driver. Come on, guys."

The four people's equipment was placed on the electric vehicle driven by Bruce at the back.

Ali drove the electric car towards the flat lawn in the distance and said as he drove: "Some people at CAA put pressure on Nolan. It is said that the situation is not very happy."

Martin asked, "Why?"

Ali hesitated for a moment and said, "What happened in your crew's Morocco, the four female kidnappers he captured himself." He shrugged and said, "If Nolan was at WMA, I would put pressure on him as well."

Martin remained calm on the surface, but he knew clearly in his heart that two of the four people on the electric car were Jewish.

Ali and Natalie.

Considering that Ali’s brother Rahm serves as White House Chief of Staff, the Jewish influence on this country is evident.

A few years ago, Mel Gibson cursed the Jews, and Ali was one of the biggest driving forces behind Hollywood's ban on Mel Gibson.

Martin still looked confused: "Shouldn't CAA support Nolan?"

"I almost forgot. You don't know the inside story," Ali said simply. "They are Jewish."

He added: “Just so you know.”

Martin suddenly realized: "I understand, don't worry."

Ali said, "Please take some time and introduce yourself to me so I can talk to Nolan."

Martin thought for a moment and said, "You should have heard about the shooting incident on the set. It's not appropriate now. It's best to wait until the film is finished."

Ali responded: "There is no rush for this matter."

The electric car stopped at this time and the group entered the practice field. Martin's golf skills were very average and Natalie was also a novice.

Thomas played OK.

The four of them were more talking about business than playing ball.

Natalie swung the club and hit the ball very far, and she screamed with joy.

Martin said, "Nice technique, have you practiced it before?"

Natalie put down another white ball. "I played for a while when I was studying at Harvard University, but then I went to Jerusalem for further studies and rarely played anymore."

Martin, a top student, was not interested in her resume that she was showing off. He said, "I haven't practiced golf much. I'm best at shooting."

Ali came over with his golf club and said, "You guys are having a great time chatting? Are you interested in working together? Isn't it a great idea for the company's top male and female stars to appear in the same movie?"

Martin put down his club and asked, "Do you have a suitable project?"

"I don't, but you do." Ali asked Martin out today for two of his important clients: "Aren't you going to adapt the best-selling book "Gone Girl" with David Fincher? David Fincher is publicly recruiting a female lead."

Martin said: "That's what happened."

Ali walked up behind Natalie and said, "Our Nat is also amazing, isn't she a good match for Amazing Amy?"

Natalie continued: "I am completely attracted to the character of Amy. Her high education and high IQ are somewhat similar to me."

When Martin heard this, he understood why Natalie had just talked about her experience studying in Harvard and Jerusalem.

On the other side, Thomas shook his head slightly towards Martin, indicating that he didn't know about it.

Martin smiled and said, "This project is a joint investment by many parties. It involves not only my studio but also a director of David Fincher's level. I can't influence it."

He dropped the white ball in his hand, bounced it up and caught it: "I'll say hello to the crew and Director Finch. Nat will go directly to the third round of auditions. The final result will definitely take into account the opinions of all parties."

This is also the result that Ali wants. It is impossible for the heroine to give it just like that.

Unless Natalie can raise a large amount of funds and bring money into the group.

Natalie took the initiative to thank him: "Thank you, Martin."

"You're welcome. I can't guarantee that you can win." In Martin's eyes, the exquisite and beautiful Amy created by Gillian Flynn was simply not something Natalie could handle.

This strict vegetarian who is famous throughout Hollywood has a skinny body and plain looks, and he could never pass David Fincher's test.

Some time ago, David Fincher's old friend Reese Witherspoon offered herself to Fincher, but Fincher rejected her without hesitation, saying that she was not pretty enough.

Ali mentioned Ridley Scott again: "You wouldn't consider Robin Hood?"

Martin refused directly: "I can't adjust my schedule."

Ali had no choice but to accept it.

Martin is not too worried. Every time Ridley Scott messes up an epic film, he will find a science fiction film to restore his reputation and confidence. Then he can talk to Ridley Scott again.
