American fame and fortune

As expected by the three Martins, the first award at the Oscars, Best Supporting Actress, was awarded to the noisy black man.

Aniston, who was in the front row, looked back at Martin and winked at him. Plan B's "12 Years a Slave" had a good start at this year's Oscars.

Then it entered the time period where "Gravity" and "La La Land" competed for supremacy.

Most of the technical awards were divided between these two films.

Special effects and visual effects were basically taken away by "Gravity".

In terms of artistic effects, most of them fall on the head of "La La Land".

This year can be regarded as a small Oscar year, with not many truly competitive films.

When "La La Land" won two awards for Best Editing and Best Original Screenplay, Martin knew that the Best Picture award was basically guaranteed.

The four most important awards were completely divided and won by four different crews.

Leonardo's plan to sell out failed, and the best actor fell into the hands of Matthew McConaughey.

The Best Director Oscar went to Alfonso Cuaron, the Mexican director of "Gravity."

"La La Land" predictably won the Best Picture award.

When Will Smith announced the result, Martin and Louise called the entire cast on stage to share the honor.

As for his acceptance speech, Martin took the initiative to step aside and leave it to Louise.

Half an hour later, the entire crew rushed to the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel to attend the "Oscar Night" party and celebrate tonight's victory crazily.

Director Damien Chazelle was so happy that he couldn't win the best director, but the film he directed won the best picture, and his destiny completely changed.

He specifically found Martin and clinked glasses with him: "Martin, I want to toast you and thank you for choosing me!"

"We make each other successful," Martin said with a smile.

Damien laughed along.

There was an endless stream of people coming over to congratulate the crew. After nearly half an hour, Martin finally had some free time.

Saoirse Ronan came over, took a glass of wine and handed it to Martin: "Teacher, I can't drink in public yet."

Martin took it and patted her shoulder gently: "Well done, keep working hard and strive to win the Oscar as soon as possible."

This pie painting made Saoirse a little excited, and she nodded repeatedly: "I will not let the teacher down."

She looked around, moved closer to Martin, and whispered: "There is one thing...well, it's not suitable to talk about here."

Martin nodded: "When you leave, you get in my car."

Saoirse's eyes lit up immediately: "Teacher, should I go with you tonight?"

Martin thought for a moment and said, "Go to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel."

"Okay." Saoirse noticed that Jennifer Aniston was walking this way. Thinking of the teacher's ardent encouragement, Saoirse said, "Teacher, if you take other people to the hotel with you, there is no problem with me."

Martin also saw Aniston and said, "We'll talk about it later."

Saoirse left here.

Aniston came over and hugged Martin: "Congratulations on winning the best picture."

"There is no need to be so polite between us." Martin asked very directly: "Do you want me to pay billions to appease you again?"

Aniston widened her eyes and said: "A few billions are not enough, I want hundreds of billions!"

When he said this, even Martin felt his legs tighten, but he then realized that Jolie and Aniston together were only the losers at the moment, and he couldn't help but said: "You can give it to you anytime, anywhere if you want. "

Aniston dragged Martin to the chair next to him and sat down, no longer joking: "I recently received a script that looked very interesting and seemed to be in the Oscar's favour. You know much more about the Oscars than I do. Can you give me your opinion?”

If it had been anyone else, Martin would have refused outright, but Aniston's relationship with him was much more than just in and out.

He asked the waiter for two glasses of juice and waited for the waiter to leave: "Tell me about the project."

Aniston said directly: "A black movie, written by Barry Jenkins, the writer and director of the science fiction drama "Future State"."

Martin shook his head slowly: "I don't know him."

"He is not very famous. He has only written and directed one movie before." Aniston explained briefly, and then said: "Paris Jenkins' script mainly tells the story of the growth experience of a black boy."

Martin smiled: "Don't you have all kinds of BUFFs?"

As the opinion leader of Mi Rabbit and one of the people who closely follows Martin, Aniston has a profound understanding of Buff: "Absolutely, the male protagonist comes from a black single-parent family, and his mother is a serious drug addict and will abuse him. The school was bullied and had strong ties to gangs."

She somewhat admired the black screenwriter and director with a keen sense of smell: "This young man gradually discovered his homosexual orientation, but was bullied by the homophobic groups around him and had to leave his hometown... The rest of the plot is roughly about a black homosexual recognizing his identity. The end of the process of self is to no longer worry about the strange eyes of others and accept everything about oneself. "

Martin said slowly: "Black people, single parents, slums, gangs, drugs, school bullying, homosexuality, and prodigal sons. When these BUFFs are added together, the power cannot be underestimated."

Aniston nodded slightly: "I think so too."

Martin asked: “Does this project have a name?”

"Moonlight." Aniston said: "Whether the name will be changed for the time being will have to wait until I negotiate the contract with Barry Jenkins."

When Martin heard the name "Moonlight", he immediately thought of an incident that happened at the Oscars.

About "La La Land".

In the previous life, this movie was also a favorite at the Oscars. The award presenters announced that "La La Land" won the best picture, and even the cast and crew went on stage to accept the award. The academy and the director team suddenly claimed that the wrong envelope was given to the winner of the best picture. A black movie with lots of buffs, "Moonlight".

This Oscar has left countless controversies, and the degree of criticism is even greater than that of Shakespeare's victory over the soldier in 1999.

Regardless of whether the wrong envelope was actually taken, this incident greatly damaged the authority of the Oscars.

Martin recalled for a moment and said: "You can give it a try. This type of film is still very popular among certain groups."

Aniston responded: "I will go to Barry Jenkins to formally negotiate the rights later."

Martin reminded: "We must control the scale of investment. There is no shortage of audiences for this type of film, but the audience range will not be particularly large. The production cost is best controlled at the million-dollar level."

Aniston kept these words in mind, and came over to kiss Martin's face: "The hundreds of billions you owe me will be recorded in the account first, and I will ask for it from you after I have negotiated the project."

Martin smiled: "You can call me anytime."

Aniston stood up and left, heading toward a circle of black people.

Martin observed for a moment and found Aniston chatting with a middle-aged black man and a CAA agent.

I think the black man is Barry Jenkins.

Louise Lyle came over at this time, pulled up a chair and sat across from Martin, followed his gaze and looked into the distance, and found that Martin was paying attention to the black group, and whispered: "What, you are interested in the black group?" ? Do you want me to help you find some black girls?”

Martin shook his head quickly: "Better say goodbye, I'm not interested at all."

Louise lightly kicked Martin: "If something happens between you and the black girl, don't even think about putting that thing in again..."

"Don't worry, I won't." Martin interrupted her and pointed at Aniston: "Jenny just came to ask me about a movie project."

He said it roughly.

Louise said: "Future movies won't be all about monsters and ghosts, right?"

Martin looked back and whispered: "I guess many black directors, screenwriters or actors in Hollywood have discovered shortcuts to success, and people with a keen sense of smell have begun to take advantage of them."

"Is this my illusion? Why do I think you have led the entire Hollywood astray." Louise frowned: "Nowadays, many directors, screenwriters and producers in the industry no longer focus on how to improve the quality of the film itself. Instead, I started studying these strange things. Isn’t this putting the cart before the horse?”

She seemed a little worried: "In the short term, this can indeed please those minority groups and increase the number of viewers and income. But what about the long term? Will normal people be disgusted if they watch too much? Will they abandon these boring things? Or even see Those elements are present in the movie, straight away.”

Martin said seriously: "So, we don't play with these messy things. We can shoot the movie how we want to maintain our reputation."

In the last few years of his previous life, after Robert Iger stepped down, Walt Disney added a large number of various LGBTQI elements to the movies, not to mention the plot itself.

At first, it seemed like the number of viewers was growing.

But it didn’t take long for this part of the film to suffer repeated setbacks. Many international markets simply closed their doors. Even the basic North American audience began to boycott Disney’s works.

Especially Disney cartoons, many North American parents prohibit their children from watching Disney cartoons.

After "Zootopia", the commercial revenue of Disney and Pixar's non-sequel animated films plummeted, with more failures than successes, which may not be without this factor.

Louise said at this time: "I feel relieved if you can think like this." She was actually a little worried: "You have benefited a lot from off-market moves over the years. Fortunately, you have not indulged in these methods and have always remembered the works. Quality is the basis for attracting audiences.”

Martin smiled: "The basic quality of the film is acceptable, so I will use those messy methods."

Leonardo and Nicholson pulled a large group of people over and asked Martin and Louise to take a photo with them.

A group of drunk people were fooling around for a while and then gradually dispersed.

As Martin left the Hilton Hotel, Saoirse Ronan got into his car.

Bruce started the car and headed to the Ritz-Carlton.

Saoirse said: "Remember Greta Gerwig?"

Martin nodded: "A friend of Mandy Moore, the choreographer of "La La Land" and one of the chief screenwriters of "Beauty and the Beast," your friend."

"I mentioned to you last time that she wants to be a director herself, and she also has an idea for a movie adapted from her own experience." Saoirse said quickly: "I told her that she has finished the first draft of the script, and now I will give it to you. I wanted to pass it on to you."

Martin remembered these events and asked, "You had a good relationship with her?"

Saoirse told the truth: "Greta has told me several times that I am very much like her when she was young, the heroine who came from her own experiences, and no one is more suitable than me."

Martin looked at Saoirse who was wearing a halter dress and said, "Well, give me the script tomorrow."

"I sent someone to the hotel and she is waiting for me in the hotel lobby." Saoirse was already prepared: "You will see her soon."

Martin said: "Okay, let's read the script tonight."

Saoirse added: "Then watch me dance."

Martin reached out his hand and gently stroked Saoirse's blond hair, which was as smooth as satin.

The car arrived at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, and Saoirse went to the lobby on the first floor to get the script.

Bruce accompanied Martin upstairs, checked the room as usual, and said, "I'm going to Venice Beach tonight."

Martin knew the Kardashians were coming, having seen them at an Oscar night party: "Go ahead and I'll give you five days off."

Bruce smiled: "It won't take so long."

Martin said deliberately: "How many of these sisters are here?"

"Uh..." Bruce hesitated for a moment, then said, "Except Kim and Cole Kendall are here too."

Martin remembered Taylor saying: "Kendall is already eighteen years old, right? Old Boo, you are really a talent!"

Bruce quickly denied: "Don't frame me. The relationship between me and Kendall is clear and clear. It's just a simple friendship. Don't frame me."

Martin sneered: "I remember a few years ago, you told me that the relationship between you and Khloe was just friends. But what happened."

Bruce quickly found the reason: "Can Khloe and Kendall be the same? Khloe has such a good figure, but what about Kendall? He has the same figure as Jodi..."

Speaking of Jody, Bruce suddenly shut up.

Maybe he had been with Jodi for a long time in the past two years and was somewhat affected. He suddenly felt that Jodi's figure was not bad.

But Martin said: "Old Bu, I don't understand you? The bonus effect of them together far exceeds their figure."

Bruce couldn't deny it, so he just shut up and stopped talking.

Martin patted Lao Bu on the shoulder: "Go and enjoy your night."

Bruce said no more. After leaving the room, he exchanged a few words with several other bodyguards, and then left the hotel and rushed to Venice Beach to attend the Kardashian sisters' night.

While driving, Bruce suddenly remembered something. Kylie Jenner seemed to be almost 17 years old, right?

He remembered that Khloe said that Kylie was born in 1997 and it is now 2014.

On the other side, Martin sat by the window near the sky garden. After waiting for a few minutes, Saoirse Ronan entered the room holding a thick script.

She locked the door, handed the script to Martin, and said, "This is it."

Martin took a look and saw "Lady Bird" written on the cover of the script, with the screenwriter's signature: Greta Gerwig.

He knew how to make the girl feel valued. He put the script aside and said, "Let's take a look at your new dance first."

Saoirse brought out a lace dance outfit and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go change first."
