In Beverly Hills, Jody rode a motorcycle, turned towards the main entrance of the Hilton Hotel, and parked next to the flower bed.
Taking off her helmet and holding up her camera, she happened to see Martin and Annie getting out of the car and walking into the hotel hand in hand.
Jody instinctively pressed the camera shutter, thinking: "Don't come out, the couple are spending the night together!"
These paparazzi are more anxious than the parties concerned for gossip.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Martin never came out.
Jodi found a place to sit down and waited while thinking about how to write the gossip.
Soon she thought of a suitable title: Martin Davis holds hands with Hollywood princess Anne Hathaway. This is what love should be like...
Jodi is a good and dedicated paparazzi. He not only takes photos, but also sets up a gossip column on an entertainment website. When he sees someone, he will not come out for a while. He takes out his pen and notebook, finds a place under the street lamp, and starts a small talk on the spot according to the idea just now. composition.
Those who work hard will always be rewarded.
After a while, a tall figure suddenly blocked the light above.
Jodi quickly closed the book to prevent her colleagues from copying her ideas, and when she looked up, she saw Bruce's rotten face.
"What's wrong with you?" she asked.
Bruce said nothing and curled his fingers.
Jody packed up his things and followed Bruce into a car.
On the way, she wanted to turn on the recorder again.
Bruce said: "You go back, I'll find someone else."
Jodi took out the recorder and dismantled it into parts under Bruce's watchful eyes.
Bruce opened the car door and got in.
Jody got into the passenger seat.
Bruce took out a memory card, placed it on the armrest box between the two, and said, "Photos of Martin and Annie in the hotel."
This was taken by him himself.
Jody nodded, picked it up and put it away. He leaned towards Bruce and reached for the zipper of his pants.
Bruce glanced at the mediocre butt lying down, feeling unfazed in his heart, he pushed Jodi back: "Don't use your bad tricks to harm a good person like me, I won't be corrupted by you guys!"
Jody stood up and looked at Bruce. Compared to the person opposite, she felt inexplicably noble: "What do you want?"
Bruce is not exaggerating: "For 100 US dollars as hard work fee, the article you write must be biased towards Martin."
Jodi took out all the cash he had and gave it all to Bruce: "I will."
Bruce counted and found that there was only more than 80 US dollars, so he didn't care: "Martin won't come out until eight o'clock tomorrow morning. Go back and have a good sleep."
Jodi opened the door and got out of the car, walked to the motorcycle alone, put on her helmet and returned to the rented house. However, she did not go to bed immediately. Instead, she worked on the manuscript overnight, and posted the photos she took and those provided by Bruce to the website column.
There were still a lot of photos left, so she called the paper media she cooperated with and sold the photos to them.
In the morning, as soon as Laura got up early, she picked up the camera, waited by the door, and watched the situation diagonally opposite Annie through the peephole.
After returning from Griffith Observatory last night, Martin stayed in Anne's suite.
In the middle of the night, Annie sneaked here, sweet and tired. According to her, she was tortured so much by Martin that she hid for a while to rest.
There was movement over there, Laura opened the door a little, stretched out the camera lens, and pointed it over there.
She practiced several times last night and was familiar with the road.
The door to Anne's suite opened and Martin came out of the room. Anne, wearing pajamas, chased him to the door from behind.
One of the two was in the room, the other was outside the door. First they looked at each other affectionately, and then they kissed passionately.
Laura pressed the camera shutter and captured a photo.
Martin held Annie's hand: "There is work over there at the studio. I can't accompany you anymore. You take care of yourself."
Annie came over again and kissed Martin on the face: "Work is important."
After all, his job is related to her future.
"I was in a hurry last night." Martin apologized: "I wasn't prepared either."
Annie's face flushed just right: "You...you performed very well, perfectly."
Martin laughed: "I'll prepare a special gift for you later."
Annie couldn't help but be surprised: "Really?"
Martin nodded: "Of course, a surprise." He glanced at his watch: "I have to go."
Annie leaned against the door frame and watched Martin enter the elevator, turning his head three times step by step.
surprise? What's the surprise? Annie couldn't help but think: A luxury car? Beautiful dove eggs? Or a complete set of luxury jewelry?
The door diagonally opposite opened, and Laura popped up and raised the camera in her hand.
Annie waved her hand and told her to do it quickly.
Laura returned to the room and made phone calls to the entertainment media and paparazzi, preparing to sell the photos of Martin leaving Anne's room.
Annie closed the door, picked up her cell phone, dialed her agent Maha's number, and told her agent the latest progress between her and Martin.
Maha said: "I will speak directly to Martin's agent."
Just like the marriage of two people on the other side of the Pacific is not just a matter between two people, the coming together of two celebrities is also not a matter between two people.
On the other side, Martin went downstairs, called Lao Bu, and came to the door of the hotel. Bruce just happened to drive over.
Martin got in the car and said, "Go to Warner Bros. Studios."
Bruce drove out of the hotel and simply said: "On the Internet and in entertainment newspapers, there is a lot of news about you and Annie, and they are very popular."
Martin asked: “What was the reaction on the blogs?”
"Your fans are discussing it very enthusiastically and think that you and Anne are a good match." Bruce paid special attention this morning: "It has attracted a lot of Anne's fans. It's very lively. I probably want you to treat Anne well."
Martin predicted this. The fan culture on the two sides of the Pacific is different. Stars falling in love here will not have such a big impact on fans.
Of course, there are also crazy fans.
Bruce continued: "Thomas called you, but your phone was turned off and he called me. He said that you and Annie should keep a good rhythm and extend it from one week to ten days. It is best to wait until "The Mountain Has Eyes" is released. If a small part of the popularity is converted into market data, a lot of money will be made.”
Martin nodded slightly and took out his cell phone to call Thomas.
After the call was connected, she briefly spoke a few words and mentioned an important matter: "Annie's agent, Maha, made an appointment with me for an interview. She said that Anne mentioned it to you."
Martin said: "Anne told me last night, you go talk to Maha."
Annie simply said last night that the two of them were getting a lot of attention together, and the agency had specifically approached her. If she and Martin got together, there were some things that needed to be discussed.
Martin certainly agrees.
Just after hanging up the phone with Thomas, Daniel, who is in charge of the promotion of "The Mountain Has Eyes" at Warner Bros., called again and specifically discussed with Martin how the scandal could effectively increase the exposure of "The Mountain Has Eyes".
The seemingly simple relationship between the two involves interests in all aspects.
The blues people are numb: "This shabby circle, there are piles of shit one after another."
Martin said: "Essentially, it is no different from the marriage of those political families."
Bruce thought of something: "For example, Schwarzenegger married a woman from the Kennedy family."
Martin asked: "I'm going to give Annie something special. What do you think is good?"
"What does she like? I think she must be interested in jewelry, luxury cars and luxury goods." Bruce repeated his old words: "Get her a big diamond. I heard that there are man-made ones that are more pure and beautiful than natural ones. "
Martin shook his head: "This is too ordinary. Let me think about it... Yes, how about giving her a star?"
Bruce didn't want to talk to this man.
Martin has always been a man of action, so he did what he thought of. He took out his mobile phone and dialed Harris' number: "I, Martin. Give me an easy-to-observe star named Anne Hathaway. That's right, that's the one." Princess. Make the star map and certificate more exquisite and use the highest-grade materials, yes! They should be high-end and classy, highlighting your high style. Send them to me after you finish them."
Harris responded immediately.
Martin solves the gift problem with ease, romantic yet unconventional.
This time he gave stars, and next time he could give real estate. Last time he mentioned the development of the moon project to Harris.
Compared with the beach villas that are often given away, the grade is much higher.
After all, one is in heaven and the other is on earth.
Arriving at Warner Studios' The Mountain Has Eyes studio, Martin attended a new publicity meeting for the film.
Because the theater manager will be recognized by the preview, the leading actor Martin himself is very popular, coupled with the success of the previous film, and Wes Craven's golden signature blessing, Eyes Beyond the Mountain can reach 3,300 theaters in North America. Around home.
In addition, Wax Museum will be released around January 20, 2005, when Warner Bros. will release the DVD. The DVD disc being pressed will include an advertisement for "The Mountain Has Eyes".
Martin then followed Craven and Aja into the producers' office.
Craven took some documents and handed them to Martin: "Let's take a look, the newly printed top-secret information."
Martin sat on the chair and looked carefully at the document in his hand. The paper was slightly old and stamped with a red seal of "Top Secret" and the logo of the United States Atomic Energy Assessment Agency.
Ajia was also watching: "It won't cause trouble, right?"
Craven smiled: "No, it's just similar. In fact, there is no such organization. We made it up."
Martin recalled a saying often said in Hollywood: "As long as you don't hack the tax bureau, you can hack other departments and agencies."
"That's right." Craven said: "These are just trivial matters. No one will care. We are not purely creating fake news. The posters and first-page advertisements of the film have been released. After the public sees it, they will quickly It reminds me of movie promotions.”
Ajia asked: "Viral marketing?"
Craven simply said: "It's a type of viral marketing, Martin's idea. In the past few months, there has been a lot of buzz about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. The political struggle caused by the election has also caused divisions in the media, and some people have come forward to break the news. Said Iraq only had laundry detergent.”
The crew and Warner Bros. adopted Martin's idea, which was also combined with the current social situation: "Now the public is particularly concerned about weapons of mass destruction, and we are adding fire."
(Let’s talk about The Departed. First of all, I think the Hong Kong version is better. It beats the American version. I personally lack understanding of the gangs and social environment in the American version and it looks boring. But the film is highly rated in North America. Before The Wolf of Wall Street, It is Martin Scorsese's highest-grossing film, and North American critics call it Martin Scorsese's best film after "Goodfellas". It seems to be around 50 on IMDB's top 100 films.)
