American fame and fortune

Chapter 147 Hollywood's Biggest Hunk

Early on Saturday morning, American Rumors and other gossip newspapers published even more exaggerated pictures, Kardashian was going to eat Martin like a fan girl.

Caption: "Kim Kardashian's most admired person."

And some other gossip: "Hollywood Rising Star Martin Davis, Kim Kardashian's Crush!"

The popular characters he created, and then turned his head to rub the heat, Martin can be considered to have created a new type.

Bruce, a bad guy with no quality, even suggested that Kardashian and Martin go to the same hotel one after another that night.

Fortunately, Martin's quality is a little higher than that of Lao Bu, so he did not agree.

In this day and age, no matter how good a work is, it needs to cooperate with publicity to bring enough fame.

Even the so-called artistic schools like Daniel Day-Lewis and Meryl Streep will desperately make news when their works are released.

The crew also released news that during filming, Martin and the director subdued the kangaroo.

For movie promotion and marketing, just blow hard.

As soon as the report came out, the North Hollywood apartment was immediately targeted by the paparazzi, and the door was directly guarded.

The cost of wild paparazzi is very low. Many practitioners do not have any industry certificates. They can enter the industry with a camera and a broken motorcycle. Los Angeles is full of celebrities, and they can sell valuable photos to gossip newspapers in exchange for income.

Antonio wants to sit at the door and bask in the sun every day, but before the chair is moved out, the camera shutter sounds, and two small tape recorders hit his face.

"Are you the landlord here? Who did Martin Davis spend the night with last night?"

Antonio subconsciously wanted to say a bastard named Bruce, but when he remembered that Old Bu was always staring at him with ill intentions, he shouted loudly: "Hurry up, don't get in the way here, this is private property!"

The bitch Jody sneaks into the apartment building.

Antonio patted his jacket: "Whoever dares to break into my house, I will let her know what the gun of friendship is."

Hearing the gun, Jody stopped quickly.

The colleagues around saw that they couldn't ask anything, so they dispersed one after another, waiting patiently.

Jody came to Antonio and whispered, "A business deal?"

Antonio asked, "What business?"

Jody took out a roll of dollars: "You let me in, and I'll take some pictures of Martin's place."

Antonio lowered his head and looked at a lot of rolls, but it was only a 10-dollar denomination.

Such a point is not in the eyes of millionaires at all: "Warning you, I will call the police."

Unwilling to give up, Jody took out two more volumes: "These are all yours, as long as you help me install surveillance at the gate of Martin Davis."

Antonio calculated the rent loss and other risks after the news broke, and said directly: "$50,000, you can do whatever you want."

Jody was stunned for a while in surprise. She wants 50,000 dollars, and she still does this kind of hard work?

But she didn't give up, raised her hand and unbuttoned two shirt buttons, revealing a large piece of skin: "I'll stay with you for a night."

Antonio originally just looked down on this little money. Hearing what she said, he immediately became alert: "What do you want to do? Plotting my property?"

Jody found that the fat man's thinking was completely out of line with hers.

Antonio suddenly heard a familiar voice above his head.

"Landlord, you won't talk to the paparazzi about how to sell me, will you?" Martin stood on the roof of the apartment building, looked at the fat man and Jody, and reminded loudly: "Your house is full of actors, once your reputation is bad, Who still rents your house? Where do you collect your monthly rent of $50,000? You go bankrupt after the property taxes are paid!"

Three other lodgers showed up with beers.

Antonio warned Jody: "See? If you dare to go in, they will beat you out."

Jody left here, but stared at the tenants coming and going.

Naturally, there will be tenants who will be interviewed and reveal relevant news about Martin, but Martin has spent most of the time on the set in the past few months, and part of the time with Louise, so he doesn't have much interaction with other tenants.

On the roof of the apartment building, Bruce put away the binoculars and said to Martin: "I saw five paparazzi, and the most courageous one is that woman."

Martin picked up the binoculars and took a quick look: "Wild paparazzi and general gossip newspapers can't afford the price that makes Antonio's heart flutter. When I chose this apartment, Antonio has certain assets and a good reputation. That's one of the reasons."

"It's not that the paparazzi and gossip media can't afford the price, but that you're not worth that much." Bruce revealed the cruel truth.

Martin was helpless: "Why did I find you, a stinky piece of shit, as a manager?"

Bruce said to himself: "Antonio is not interested in these small money, and other tenants may not be."

Martin had already prepared: "Of course we have to sell the most valuable ones ourselves!"

Bruce was not surprised by this, because Martin did it not once or twice.

Martin waved at the round table on the roof, and Emily and Jessica, who were drinking beer under the sun umbrella, ran over immediately.

"Continue to post good reviews on the website?" Emily said positively, "We'll go back right away."

Martin waved his hand: "You have helped me a lot in the past two days."

Jessica said first, "You bought us a beer."

Martin is generous and generous: "I'll give you a little reward."

Emily said before Jessica: "No, really, I can help you..."

"Listen to me." Martin raised his hand to interrupt her: "I don't actually live in the apartment for a long time. What can attract the attention of paparazzi and gossip magazines?"

Emily is still thinking, but Jessica has already reacted: "I often bring one or two women back, and the whole building is so noisy that I can't sleep well at night."

Martin waved his hand: "Go downstairs and sell this news to the paparazzi, and you will have as much as you want."

He asked in passing: "Know what to say?"

Jessica nodded: "I know, you are very powerful, and none of the women are opponents..."

"Very good." Martin urged: "Hurry up, don't let people take away the business."

Jessie pulled Emily downstairs, as if preparing to go shopping, and soon attracted that Jody.

"Martin, he is our neighbor." Jessica is younger than Emily, but her thinking is more active: "Occasionally he will chat with us."

Jody asked: "Can you tell me more about it? What did he talk about, and what did he do out of the ordinary?"

Jessica stared at the paparazzi: "It's okay to talk..."

Jody understood, took out two $10s and handed them over: "These are yours."

Emily wanted to pick it up subconsciously, but Jessica quietly pulled her back: "It's breaking news, it's about a woman, we're his neighbors, that's why we know about it."

Jody took out two more sheets. Seeing that the girl who was so white was still not satisfied, she simply gave all the remaining sheets of the volume: "The news about Martin Davis is worth it."

In her eyes, news about Martin Davis is worth $100 at most. This is because the opening of "House of Wax Museum" received a lot of attention, and Kim Kardashian's popularity added last night.

Jessica collected the money: "Martin often brings a few women back. I don't know the specifics, but no matter how many he brings, Martin can make them sing all night. The sound insulation of the apartment is not very good, and noisy people can't sleep. The landlord Nearly shot down Martin's door several times."

Jody became interested immediately: "Are those women famous? Like Kardashian? Eliza Cuthbert?"

Jessica shook her head: "Not sure, I don't know."

Without valuable news later, Jody gave up Jessica and Emily.

Looking back at the backs of the two, she suddenly thought of a way, picked up the camera and took a picture of them with their North Hollywood apartment as the back view.

Compared with many of his colleagues in the future, Jody has a little bit of professionalism, at least he is ready to read pictures and write articles.

She quickly outlined the news frame in her mind: the young actor who won the Saturn Award for Best Newcomer began to indulge himself, bringing women back to the carnival every night, and sometimes pulling two beautiful neighbors to join him. Disgruntled tenant, landlord shoots at him...

Jody mainly works in the field of online entertainment news and knows the importance of headlines.

After the frame was drawn, the title automatically appeared: Shocked, he is the number one hunk in Hollywood!

Jessica and Emily drove out for a tour, and were soon back at the apartment building.

Emily said, "Half the money for each of us?"

Jessica said as she went upstairs, "We'll talk later."

She was young, but she had the right idea. She went up to the roof of the apartment building and put 10 dollars on the table in front of Martin.

Of course Martin would not ask for it: "I told you, this is a reward for you, take it."

Jessica picked it up, ordered five of them to Emily, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Martin, what do you want for lunch, I'll treat you."

Martin didn't refuse, and pointed down: "There are too many paparazzi, and Lao Bu and I won't go out. It's still early, and you can go buy some fried chicken burgers at 11 o'clock."

A hot movie can always bring out a series of news and create new stars.

On the first day of its opening in North America, the Wax Museum took in a box office of 7.23 million US dollars, beating the two films of the same period, American Soldier and Dancing, and winning the box office champion of the day.

In the following two days on Saturday and Sunday, it still ranked first in the North American box office.

Three days after the opening weekend, including the early box office, Wax Museum won US$20.13 million in the first weekend, which was higher than the US$15 million box office expectations of Warner Bros. and the North American Theater Alliance.

As a traditional North American massacre horror film, the word-of-mouth is naturally mediocre. The IMDB audience score is only 6.3, and the audience's Cinema Score, which best reflects the market response, scored B on the spot, which is not bad.

Cinema Score officially predicts that the North American box office of this film will be around $50 million.

For similar American horror films, the overseas box office is often not much different from the North American box office, which means that the global box office of the Wax Museum is expected to hit 100 million US dollars.

The public production cost of the film is as high as an exaggerated 40 million U.S. dollars, and most of the funds come from various platters.

Martin would not be stupid enough to inquire about the real investment, but the director Zomi mentioned a few words in a daze after drinking, and he estimated that the production, promotion and distribution of the Wax Museum would not cost a total of 40 million US dollars.

There is Louise who plays platters by his side, so Martin is not surprised. Straw hats worth 7,000 yuan must be the rest of the game here.

The incident that Xiao Lizi made a lot of noise in the previous life will not be an exception in Hollywood.
