American Life

Chapter 119 Director Martin and Writer Martin

The conversation with Madonna only lasted about 10 minutes.When Charlie returned, he saw Faith Hill and Taylor Swift getting together.

"Then the crazy lady didn't give you any trouble, did she?" Faith Hill asked slightly worriedly.

Charlie shrugged: "She should have her brain checked."

After some disharmonious episodes, the plan went on as usual. A luxurious restaurant very close to the Kodak Theater was fully booked by Charlie tonight. The hall was temporarily decorated in a party style. Except for a separate seating area, everything in the hall was The chairs were evacuated.

"Charlie!" Kevin Feige, Robert Downey Jr., and Gwyneth gathered together. In order to participate in this SHOW, the three of them rushed here as soon as they finished working on the set.

"Fortunately, today's filming is all daytime scenes, otherwise I would have missed this show, which will make me regret it for the rest of my life." Robert Downey Jr. said with compliments.

Tonight's performance was completely dazzling for him...

"Thank you for coming. By the way, how is the filming going?" Charlie smiled and asked for information.

"Eighty percent of the filming has been completed, and the rest is editing and post-production. It will be released around the end of October or early November." Kevin Feige explained.

This was a few months earlier than he expected. Thanks to the help of PB Pictures and the personal advice of Charlie Rossi, he gave a lot of tips, which made Kevin Feige feel that he should "adapt to the market" ” instead of sticking to your guns.

Little did they know... Charlie Rossi's suggestions were all stupid moves.

"Very good, by then Iron Man will be famous all over the world, surpassing his predecessor Spider-Man, and the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe will also usher in a revival." Charlie said exaggeratedly, opening his arms.

In fact, my thoughts are completely opposite to what I said.

When Iron Man was released, it was Marvel's final day, and it was also the time for him to take action.

After bidding farewell to the three of them, Charlie met an old friend again.

"Why haven't you seen your girlfriend?" Charlie looked around pretending.

"Mr. Rossi, I have to admit that I don't have the ability like you." Little Plum pursed her lips and said honestly.

"Speaking of which...can you help me ask..."

"No, friend, you know, my artists are not allowed to fall in love, at least not while their careers are on the rise." Charlie Rossi guessed what he was going to say at a glance.

Xiao Lizi made a gesture of surrender.

"I'm not going to touch your cake. I think I'd better talk about another topic, such as this show. It's really explosive and I will never forget it for the rest of my life."

"Don't take it too seriously. Maybe next year will be better than this year?"

"By the way, actually when I came this time, I also brought a piece of news from director Martin Scorsese. He is preparing a brand new movie."

"So fast?"

Charlie knew that director Martin won the Best Director Award at the Oscars not long ago.

"Yes, this is a live-action movie about a Wall Street stockbroker. You didn't just guest star in Iron Man, but Director Martin also wants you to be a consultant for this movie. The prototype of the story is very similar to yours. They are similar, and we want to learn from you in terms of character temperament." Xiao Lizi covered his mouth and explained the situation concisely.

"Have you decided on the actress?" Charlie asked suddenly without agreeing directly.

"I may not be able to help you with this matter. Director Martin already has a confirmed candidate, a newcomer from Australia."

"Margot Robbie?" Charlie asked again.

Xiao Lizi was a little shocked. He never expected that Charlie would know so much. Not many people knew the news now.

"Yes, sir, she is very young and has a bit of an eccentric temperament. During the audition, the wife she played matched the temperament of the crazy stock broker very well." Xiao Lizi said with praise.

"Tell Director Martin, I agree, but I have an extra condition..." Charlie whispered in his ear.

After hearing Charlie's request, Little Plum was a little surprised.

Why did he feel that Charlie's tastes were so similar to his own?Every time he had an idea, he would get there first.

"Hey, I don't have any superfluous thoughts. I just like her. I'm just optimistic about her." Charlie explained while shaking his head.

The name Margot Robbie may be unfamiliar to many people, but when it comes to... Harley Quinn, everyone knows it.

In fact, Margot Robbie is one of the four Hollywood actresses, one year younger than Taylor, born in the 90s.

"Okay, I will tell Director Martin about this matter and see if he can do anything..." DiCaprio nodded, and finally agreed to Charlie's additional request.

After saying goodbye to Little Plum, Charlie had in-depth and friendly conversations with many people.

As the so-called high-class communication begins with the temptation of hypocrisy.

In the middle and later stages, Charlie Rossi also came on stage to speak in person.

In addition, she also spotted Madonna in the crowd. She continued to stand there as if nothing was wrong. She saw Charlie looking towards her and winking at her.

Charlie turned around expressionlessly and searched around for a long time, but did not find the person he most wanted to see.

That famous writer...Stephen King.

Of course, he did not invite the other party to watch the models walking on the catwalk, but invited him to the party alone.

The reason is, of course, that "The Mist" is about to be released. As a project created by PB Pictures, he wants to invite Stephen King to personally support the film and participate in the premiere and interview.

However, he obviously did not sign the same promotional terms as Megan Fox, so Charlie could only invite him alone.

"Sorry sir, Mr. Stephen King is currently attending the Hugo Awards ceremony. There have been some forums about dramas recently and he may not be able to attend in a short time."

Faced with Charlie's inquiry, Rosenzweig said that as PB Company held such a large show, of course he, as executive vice president, had to attend.

"Osenzweig, I want to hear it from you personally. You didn't mess this up." Charlie looked at the old man.

"I really didn't mess up..." He was a little embarrassed.

"Actually, during the last exclusive interview, he had some unpleasantness with our writer, so he may have been a bit slow, but don't worry, I will continue to contact him."

"Oh, do you know what this means? It means that I need to solve this matter myself." Charlie covered his forehead, feeling a little annoyed.

Although his men are doing their best, he still hopes to avoid unexpected troubles like this...

"Is the Hugo Awards ceremony held in China?"

"It's in the country."

“Who is nominated this year?”

"There is the fourth part of A Song of Ice and Fire, written by George Martin..."

"What?" Charlie almost lost his grip on the wine glass in his hand.
