American fame and fortune

Chapter 597 Leonardo’s Prodigal Son Returns

The European premiere of the film was held in the romantic city of Paris.

On the day of the premiere, not only Martin, Nolan and other main creative staff were present, but the supporting actor Menet also specially invited Sophie Marceau and Isabelle Huppert to come and help out.

When taking the photo, Menet stood between the two French actresses, holding one waist with one hand, looking indescribably chic.

He alone stole all the limelight.

The French media even praised him: "After Morgan Freeman, he is the best supporting African-American actor in Hollywood!"

Of course, Martin's limelight is not weak either.

On both sides of the red carpet at the premiere, there was a large area of ​​red. Hundreds of movie fans wore red Coca-Cola T-shirts and raised their Cokes high to pay tribute to Martin.

They shouted: "Long live the leader!"

Some people even shouted loudly: "Master, lead us to overthrow the trashy Paris City Hall and establish the kingdom of Coca-Cola!"

The romantic citizens of Paris not only go on strike, but also hope to once again set off a wave of big song titles.

Martin opened a can of Coke and drank with them.

The followers of Coca-Cola in Paris were all excited and clamoring to go on strike to celebrate the arrival of the leader.

But no one took it seriously, mainly because no one cared.

After all, they are either on strike or on the way to strike.

Compared to Martin and Mene, the British actors in the crew received a cold reception, and they were not treated well by fans or the media.

The British actors also seemed to be going through the motions, rushing by.

The premiere went well. When it was over, Martin and Ellen Page accepted Huppert's invitation to go have a drink with her.

It was just a matter of drinking. Leonardo and Nicholson had already come to Paris.

Martin needs to recharge his batteries to face the upcoming Mao Mei war.

The crew returned to the hotel where they were staying. When Tom Hardy entered, he met Leonardo and Nicholson who had also returned from an outing.

These two people knew Nolan and chatted for a few words.

Tom Hardy followed Nolan and listened secretly for a while. Leonardo mentioned having a party and so on, and extended an invitation to Nolan, but Nolan declined.

Taking the elevator upstairs and returning to the room, Tom Hardy thought about Leonardo's words.

The trio of Hollywood bastards are so notorious that Leonardo is having a party in Paris and Martin is sure to attend.

Tom Hardy has been involved in Hollywood for a while, and he has heard many rumors. For example, there is an organization like the Fashion Super Model Group in the United States, and Martin often hangs out with him, taking turns every time.

It is said that the trio of bastards often hold shady parties and gather a large group of people to cause mischief.

Tom Hardy thought for a few minutes, then called his follower Rogers and said: "Quietly go and find out who Leonardo and Nicholson, who live in this hotel, have been hanging out with recently. I heard Said they were organizing a big party.”

Rogers didn't understand what his boss was going to do, and said: "These two are very high-profile and often accompany people in and out. It shouldn't be difficult to ask."

Tom Hardy patted him on the shoulder: "Go ahead and ask more carefully."

Rogers said with a smile: "If you put a little tip, the doorman and waiter in the lobby will tell you everything."

Tom Hardy nodded: "Don't attract attention."

Rogers left the room, went downstairs and got close to the doorman for a while, then quietly handed over a few euros and quickly asked a lot of questions.

He was afraid that the doorman wouldn't tell the truth, so he asked two other lobby waiters to inquire before returning upstairs.

"Boss, I've basically asked you clearly." Rogers entered Tom Hardy's room, closed the door and said, "Leonardo and Nicholson checked into the hotel one day earlier than the crew, and they met with the newly divorced Russian supermodel Na I have been in contact with Talia Vodinova several times, and we had a long chat in the lobby lounge this afternoon.”

Tom Hardy knew that this supermodel had previously married into an established British aristocratic family and later divorced.

He calculated and said: "That's not right. Natalia is 27 years old and is not within Leonardo's hunting range."

Rogers reminded: "Didn't you say they were going to organize a large party? Natalia has great influence in Russia, Ukraine, and the entire former Soviet Union. Will Leonardo Inviting people through her? After all, the quality of young female models in Eastern Europe is not generally high."

Tom Hardy thinks it is very possible. He has also attended some large gatherings in the entertainment industry, many of which were organized through a well-connected intermediary.

For example, Huppert's costume party, which is famous in the Paris entertainment circle, was organized by Huppert based on his own fame.

Tom Hardy asked: "Do you know anyone participating?"

"They didn't ask." Rogers said softly: "They only saw Leonardo having contact with Natalia, and no one else."

Tom Hardy can judge: "The bastard trio will definitely organize a party, but they don't know when or where."

Rogers added: "They haven't invited us to participate. They are really a bunch of assholes!"

Tom Hardy scratched his head, thought for a long time, and said: "If you go down again, give more tips and let the doormen pay attention. If Martin, Leonardo and Nicholson go out together, let us know immediately. ."

Rogers said: "Boss, you don't want to cause trouble, do you?" He reminded: "I heard that Brad Pitt and Ben Affleck both wanted to mess with Martin, and now they are in the hospital."

Tom Hardy was unhappy: "When did you become so cowardly?"

"Hollywood has selectively forgotten these people, but I saw Ben Affleck's report in the corner of the newspaper." Don't blame Rogers for being timid: "Ben Affleck came out of prison to seek temporary medical treatment, and he saw an anorectal department. ah!"

Hearing this, Tom Hardy's legs tightened inexplicably, but he was still somewhat confident, mainly because he didn't intend to do anything excessive. He said: "We don't do anything risky, we just find out when and where they meet. , and then make a call to the media."

Rogers' heart dropped back into his stomach.

Tom Hardy added: "The paparazzi have always been crazy. I heard that a group of them are doing mischief. If anyone is brave enough to run in and take pictures, it will be very exciting."

"Boss, I really belong to you!" Rogers calmed down and left the room and went downstairs.

Tom Hardy came to the window and looked at the brightly lit Paris, finally feeling a little better.

He thought about it carefully, and asked Rogers to rent a car and buy a new mobile phone the next morning, so that Rogers could just throw it away after making calls.

The crew is still participating in various promotional activities in Paris. Martin, Nolan and Mene are the busiest, with at least two announcements every day.

From exclusive interviews in "Le Figaro" to France 1's flagship program, you can see them.

"Inception" was already a hit in North America, and it also had many French elements. Coupled with the appeal of Martin and Nolan, the film earned a box office of US$8.89 million in its first weekend in France.

Across the strait in the UK market, the film also had a good opening, grossing US$9.66 million in its first weekend.

"Inception", which was mainly released in European and Latin American countries, earned US$62.2 million in its first week overseas.

In North America, the film's trend was extremely stable due to its good reputation. It only fell 39% the next weekend and collected another US$45.92 million.

Including the gains from the previous four days, the North American box office has accumulated more than 150 million US dollars!

“It has good reputation and high box office, but not many people can do it.”

In the hotel room, Nicholson put down the newspaper in his hand and said to Martin: "You bastard, you have both."

Martin said happily: "Do you know what vision is? This is vision!"

Leonardo dismissed it and said: "Since you have a good vision, let me ask you, when can I win the Best Actor?"

Nicholson responded: "Wait another ten years!"

"Maybe there will be a chance this year." Martin had just given a bad idea to Natalie Portman a few days ago. When facing his old friend Leonardo, inspiration poured out like a fountain.

He analyzed it seriously: "You see, Harvey Weinstein has been brought down by us. Although the trial has not started yet, he will have to spend at least ten years in prison. Now there is a free period during the awards season. With a lot of resources, if we act quickly, we might actually be able to win an Oscar.”

Nicholson nodded slightly: "What you said makes sense."

Martin recalled carefully, who was the best actor in the same class as Natalie Portman? I really can’t remember. In my previous life, it seems that the last wave of Harvey broke out in the first few years after 2010, and it did everything to the Oscars. The fierce public relations also made people hate ghosts and hate them.

Now that Harvey is gone, what happened to the movies and people he promoted has become unknown.

Hearing what his two best friends said, Leonardo suddenly gained confidence: "My performance in "Shutter Island" was outstanding, and the film's reputation was also very good. I have been competing for the Olympics for ten years, so the academy should consider me." Bar?"

"It's hard to say," Nicholson said.

"In recent years, the situation of Oscar competition has become more and more obvious. It is difficult to win awards just relying on roles and normal public relations." After a thorough analysis, Martin began to talk nonsense: "Leo, when you angered the old men, you must Show an attitude and prove that the prodigal son will never be replaced by gold!"

Leonardo frowned: "My ten years haven't been enough?"

Martin said: "I have a way. If you do what I say, there is a 90% chance that you can win the Best Actor next year!"

Leonardo felt that Martin must have had a bad idea, but after many years of trying to win the Oscars, nothing came of it. Instead, Martin, the bastard, won the Oscar for acting before him. He couldn't help but ask, "What good idea do you have?"

Martin said solemnly: "It is very easy to prove to all the Oscar judges that Leonardo DiCaprio turned back as a prodigal son. If you get married at the beginning of the awards season, it will definitely change the judges' view of you and prove that Leonardo has matured." , no longer the unruly yellow-haired boy."
