Facing Martin, Zomi talked like he did with his screenwriter friend David Johnson.
"She probably suffered from a pituitary disorder or something like that, which caused her to still look like a ten-year-old child when she was in her twenties." Zomi recalled: "An immigrant couple adopted her, but unfortunately something happened very quickly. It happened, a fire suddenly broke out in the immigrant's house, and except for the girl, everyone else died in the fire." Martin felt a sense of familiarity, and listened carefully while thinking about it.
Zomi's words continued: "After various investigations, the police found that this girl had been involved in the death of the adoptive family before. The local area spent a lot of manpower and material resources to find out her true age. She is a psychopathic adult!" Martin had seen it There are countless movies and TV shows, and some of them have been forgotten for a long time. After some reflection, I gradually got the impression that it was a scary lolita with twin tails.
It seems that the translated version is called "Orphan's Revenge", and the character's name has long been forgotten. Soon, remembering more related memories, Martin was basically certain that he had watched it after 2010.
He asked: "Zomi, do you plan to adapt it into a movie?"
"I have this idea, a psychological horror film." Zomi smiled: "David and I discussed this topic last year. At that time, I was just a director making commercials and music videos, and David was just one of Darabont. An inconspicuous one among the assistants studied screenwriting, but has never written a script independently. Even if we come up with a script, the result will not be optimistic." Martin had been in Los Angeles for a few months and nodded: "The status of screenwriters is too low. Zomi took a sip of beer: "So, I accepted the invitation of Joe Silver and Susan Levin to serve as the director of this film. With this qualification, David and I will create a new one." Once the script comes out, the producers will pay a lot of attention to it." Martin agreed: "When "Horror House of Waxwork" is released, you will be a well-known director. When the time comes to recommend the script, not to mention Susan, even the top management of Warner Bros. will take a careful look." Zuo Mi smiled: "I hope so. Hollywood has no idea how many scripts it has been pressed for more than ten years." Martin also smiled: "I heard Susan mention that there are still scripts bought out in the early 1990s in the warehouse of Warner Bros. Maybe the author sold the script and forgot about it." Zomi knew more: "It is difficult for a newcomer who is not a member of the Writers Guild to sell a script for 10,000 US dollars." Martin held out the bottle of wine: "Zomi, If your project is successful and there is a suitable role, we will continue to cooperate." Zomi clinked the wine bottles with him again: "This is what I want to say, Martin, except for those two days during the filming, you were in very good condition. If The crew is full of actors like you, and the director can do a lot." Martin said: "The main thing is that you are professional enough, explain the play clearly, and let me know what to do."
"It's still uncertain what the future of this project will be." Zomi, like Martin, is a newcomer to Hollywood and is not very confident: "The earliest I can't recommend it to Susan or Warner Bros. is until "Horror House of Wax" is completed. ." Martin asked: "Is the script completed?" Zomi shook his head: "David and I just discussed the story frame and direction, and he is sorting out the information and outline." Martin said: "If possible, the script is completed, let Let me read it. To be honest, Zomi, I know a few investors." Zomi has worked as an MV and advertising director, and has sufficient knowledge of the industry's ecology. He also guessed that there is someone behind or under Martin, and said: "No problem. I'll contact you as soon as the script is finished." The two of them clinked bottles again and drank the wine very happily.
After a while, Mene ran over and said, "What are you doing here? There are so many hot girls dancing over there. I didn't even notice it during the day. Molly has such a great figure!" Martin pointed to the other side of the crowd: "Man , you hurry over, you won’t be able to pick up girls if it’s too late.” But Menei said: “Boss, don’t be joking, if you want Uncle Menei’s service, they have to pay!” In the next two days, the four of them tried some fun besides hunting. project.
Martin put on protective clothing, focusing on the crotch protector, and had a kangaroo boxing match. The big kangaroo did not follow martial ethics and always liked to use its lower limbs to kick people's vital parts.
Compared to Mene, Martin is physically stronger and more agile. His experience as a martial artist in his previous life, and his long-term fitness and training after coming over, he finally defeated the 1.7-meter-high kangaroo and fled in panic.
This thing wants to run, but people can't catch it with their legs alone. Three days later, the four of them returned to Los Angeles on the same plane, carrying souvenirs such as crocodile teeth and bison horns processed by the hunting club.
Zomi was picked up by his screenwriter friend David Johnson. Mene, who also lives in North Hollywood, shamelessly got into Martin's car.
Bruce was driving the car, still talking about Australia: "Next time someone offends me, I will make friends with him, and then ask him to travel and hunt in Australia." Mene's whole body was cold: "Old Bu, are you talking about me?" Martin said casually: "Don't worry, Lao Bu and I are both civilized people." Mene always felt that the civilized people in Martin's words had a special meaning.
Martin's cell phone rang, and the call was from his agent Thomas: "I got off the plane and was going back." Thomas said, "I'll rest for two days when I get back. I'll contact you the day after tomorrow." Martin said, "I brought you a gift. I'll give it to you later." You." Inside the company partition, Thomas's heart warmed. The bastard client went out to film and wanted to bring a gift to the agent. It was so rare.
In the car, Mene asked: "Boss, do you have a new job? If there is a suitable opportunity, don't forget your loyal Mene." Martin said calmly: "I don't know where the next job will be." Mene sighed: "I don't want to give sweets to an old woman anymore. I feel like if I continue doing this, my tongue and lips will rot."
"It's better than bragging for an old man." Martin's words were a fatal blow. Menei was depressed: "So, I am still lucky, at least I have not been exposed." He recognized the reality: "Until the actor's income can support the expenses, I will continue to work as a high-end escort." Bruce said: "A very promising job ." He and Martin don't look down on this job, and many of their friends in Atlanta, such as Hart and Carrington, frankly work in similar jobs.
Arriving at the parking lot, Mene left alone carrying his bag. Martin and Bruce took their luggage back to the apartment building. When they arrived at the apartment building, they saw a meat mountain sitting under a sun umbrella drinking ice Coke.
Antonio waved to Martin: "I haven't seen you for a long time." Martin said vaguely: "I'm on a business trip." Antonio asked in a low voice: "Are you really an actor? You haven't come back after being away for so long..." Bruce suddenly tightened his face: "you know too much."
"I don't know anything!" Antonio regretted not bringing the Gun of Friendship with him and quickly raised his hand: "Really, I don't know anything." Martin opened the bag, took out a "Zombie Gigolo" disc, and threw it away To Antonio: "You think too much." Antonio looked down at the disc and found that the male protagonist on the package looked exactly like Martin, and asked: "Are you the male protagonist?" He saw that the character on the cover was only wearing a short pair of pants and could not wear any more. The short shorts highlighted the sensitive area: "I know, you went to the Sacred Valley!"
"This is a B-level movie." Martin said simply and took out a crocodile tooth pendant: "Lao Bu and I went to Australia to shoot a film. It's an Australian specialty. I gave it to you." Antonio took it and said: "Wolf tooth? I remember there were only dingoes in Australia." It was obvious that the landlord's level of knowledge was several levels higher than Mene's.
Martin exaggerated appropriately: "A tooth of a five-meter-long crocodile is very rare." Antonio put it away and remembered something: "On the second floor, the corridor on your side, the innermost room is empty." Bruce answered. : "Go up and have a look." Antonio held on to the chair, stood up with difficulty, and moved his fat body upstairs.
Martin and Bruce put down their luggage, went to the end of the corridor, and entered the door that Antonio had just opened.
The layout of the apartment is almost the same, and it comes with its own furniture and appliances, so Bruce can move in there. After signing the contract, Bruce paid for the rent out of his own pocket: "The assistant fee for the crew has arrived, and I will pay for the house I live in." Martin said, "You are my manager. When all the remuneration comes in, I will give you the settlement manager Personnel fee." Antonio said: "Remember, no parties are allowed in the room." He reminded Martin: "The woman you brought last time screamed too loudly. Next time she comes, control it." Martin knew he was talking about Louise and casually replied: "It's exciting and exciting for the first time in a new environment, but it won't be the same the next time." Antonio picked up the disc: "I went upstairs to watch a movie. I hope it's a movie." It's a good movie." Bruce looked at his big belly and said, "You might have low self-esteem." Antonio wandered away and went to the third floor to play the disc. He only watched the opening scene and turned it off decisively.
It hurts your self-esteem so much! It doesn't matter if you don't know the actors in it, but how can you bear the male protagonist hanging in front of your eyes all day long?
Seeing you feel inferior once? Martin helped Bruce clean up the room and went out to eat together. When he came back, he bought express bags and sent the things he brought back from Australia back to Atlanta.
Most of the crocodile's teeth were divided between Martin and Zomi. Martin put the four Carter brothers and sisters in a bag and mailed two to each of them. Lily, who likes to do handicrafts, put all the bison horns in them.
There are full legal procedures for these. Robert and Jerome also had two each. Kelly's side can't be pulled down.
Benjamin’s thread cannot be broken either. Bruce was unfit to contact people in Atlanta, so Martin mailed a copy to the gigolo club owners in his own name.
He has been keeping in touch with Sophia and Vincent, and when they compete for the lead role in key projects, he might be able to use this trick of bringing money into the group.
During the filming of "Horror House of Wax", Paris Hilton's acting was poor. From the director to the producer, no one on the crew said much.
Why? Because Paris Hilton is the representative of the third largest investor. After sending out the express mail, resting for a whole day, and overcoming the jet lag, Martin made an appointment with his agent Thomas to have dinner together.
