American fame and fortune.

Chapter 396

Nicholson, who was striding forward, stopped five meters away from Blanchett, holding a bouquet of bright roses in both hands, as if reciting lines from a drama, and said loudly: "I love Blanchett! I love Blanchett ..."

Regardless of Blanchett's expression on the opposite side, Nicholson performed on his own.

Because he thought it was fun and found fun, not only his voice was louder, but he simply said, with a sincere face and a heart: "Cate Blanchett, marry me!"

There was an uproar at the scene.

Those who are in Hollywood don't know that Cate Blanchett is married.

Martin shouted not far away: "Marry him! Marry him!"

After Leonardo heard it, he immediately followed: "Marry him!"

He not only shouted, but also opened his arms to encourage people around him to help: "We are witnessing the birth of a great love, let's shout together!"

Onlookers never take it too seriously. First, the few people who followed Leonardo shouted, and after a few seconds, all the people watching around started shouting.

"Marry him! Marry him..."

Some passers-by, who didn't even understand what was going on, also shouted along.

Blanchett's face was extremely ugly. Who in Hollywood didn't know that she had a husband and the couple had a great relationship. As long as she returned home to Australia, she would be a good wife and mother.

This bastard wants to ruin her reputation?
With a dark face, Blanchett strode up to Nicholson, grabbed the bright roses and threw them on the ground.

Still not enough to relieve her hatred, she stomped on it, turning it into a puddle of flower mud.

Nicholson looked quite helpless: "I'm just courting, and I didn't hurt you. There's no need for that."

Blanchett was still stepping on the roses vigorously, and on her cold face, words of ridicule came out like iron plates rubbing against each other: "Get out! Ugly, you look old and ugly..."

She spat very rudely: "I'm pooh!"

Nicholson spread his hands innocently, and did nothing more, looking more and more like a gentleman who couldn't love him.

Not far away, his daughter Lorraine was holding a handheld camera and captured all the scenes.

Nicholson said: "I just love you very much, I hope you can give me a chance." He was old and mature, and he was very, very angry when he saw Blanchett, and there was something special in his words: "Although I am old Now, the influence has weakened, and he has become an unremarkable old Hollywood white man, but he always has the power to express love."

He specially emphasized: "Hollywood old white men should also have spring."

"Bah!" Blanchett spat again and cursed loudly: "Disgusting old white Hollywood man!"

Nicholson shook his head, but in the end he didn't say anything, but instead voluntarily moved out of the way.

When Blanchett heard the commotion around her, she turned around and walked away quickly. She might have vomited if she stayed there for another minute.

When she walked out of the crowd, Nicholson greeted Leonardo: "Let's go, let's go."

Leonardo, Nicholson, and Lorraine who followed secretly, boarded a battery car and fled the scene like the wind.

Martin jumped into the driving seat of the battery car, beckoned Bruce to sit down quickly, and went straight to the parking lot of the studio.

Ten minutes later, Martin came to the WMA headquarters in Century City, and they made an appointment to meet here.

Martin entered the lobby on the first floor, waved to the three Leonardo in the rest area, and asked for a reception room directly from the front desk.

With his current status in the company, it would not be a problem even if he wanted Ali Emmanuel's office to receive guests.

On the one hand, it's about coffee, and on the other hand, Martin's three-year contract is about to expire.

Now the whole company wants to support him.

It is not easy for a star like Martin, who has great commercial appeal and is still in the rapid rise, to sign for another three years.

After the reception room door was closed, Nicholson asked for a digital video camera from Lorraine.

Martin and Leonardo immediately approached.

Lorraine is quite helpless, her father is unreliable, and the two closest friends in recent years seem to be even more unreliable.

The three sand sculptures get together and make trouble all day long.

After watching the video, Martin gave Lorraine a thumbs up: "It's a good shot."

Lorraine smiled back.

Leonardo belonged to the young man who was temporarily pulled over, and asked, "What should I do next?"

Martin looked at Nicholson: "You are the director, producer, and leading actor. You decide how to do it."

Nicholson already had an idea: "Of course we have to sell it and earn back all the money invested today. It is estimated that we can also make a profit. We will never do a business that loses money."

Martin nodded: "You really know how to do business."

Nicholson was actually modest: "I learned everything from you."

Martin turned his head: "Old Bu, contact person."

Bruce asked, "A direct deal?"

"Trade directly." Nicholson glanced at Lorraine, thinking that his daughter must exercise: "Go and trade."

Lorraine opened her mouth wide: "Me? Okay, I'll go."

Nicholson added: "If you can't sell it for 1 US dollars, you can make up for it yourself, and you can keep the excess by yourself."

Lorraine copied a copy of the video and followed Bruce out to find Jody to make a deal.

Leonardo asked: "Jack, did you do it on purpose?"

Martin was also interested.

Nicholson said: "If you want to have fun, of course you have to add ingredients to it. Old white men in Hollywood are all petty, haha..."

He himself was part of it, of course he understood.

Martin patted Leonardo on the shoulder: "You have the most say."

Leonardo wanted to cry but had no tears.

Martin looked at Nicholson: "You are such a talented person. Blanchett is taking the art route to win awards. If the old people really have a prejudice against her, she will be in trouble."

Nicholson laughed: "How can it be so fast, let's plant an unpleasant seed first."

Martin said: "Work harder, she is so recognizable, and the old whites must remember her very deeply."

Leonardo pointed at his two bad friends: "You guys, you've always been so reliable when it comes to being a bad person."

"The video wants to sell at a high price, you have to let the seller know where the selling point is!" Martin took out his mobile phone and called Bruce, telling him the real selling point of the video.

…………

On the other side, in a mall in Century City, Lorraine met Jody, the editor-in-chief of TMZ.

Jody, who looked pretty, but had no butt or breasts, saw Lorraine and asked, "You're looking for me?"

Lorraine clenched the card reader in her hand and said, "Check the password first."

Jodi was helpless, but he could only say: "Who is Leonardo's favorite?"

Lorraine was sure she was right, and said, "Giselle Bundchen."

She turned back and looked at Bruce behind her. Although she didn't see anyone, she felt a little relieved thinking that Bruce would protect her. She took out the card reader and the lion said loudly: "I want 2 US dollars for this video."

Jodi took the card reader and plugged it into his laptop. After clicking playback, he found that it was a scene of Nicholson wooing Blanchett and being flatly rejected by Blanchett.

Although Blanchett's words were a bit excessive and his behavior was rude, it was reasonable to face someone like Nicholson.

The content on the video is not strong enough.

Jody shook her head: "It looks like nonsense. It's not worth 2 US dollars. Both Nicholson and Blanchett are a little hot. The middleman who introduced you is also reliable. I'll take 5000 US dollars."

If it was sold at this price, Lorraine had to pay $5000 to subsidize her father. She calmed down a little, replayed the video, and then paused at a key point to make Jody listen to what Blanchett said repeatedly.

Jody has a keen sense of news, just listened to it again, and immediately realized where the greatest value of this video is, and immediately said: "$1."

Lorraine had never done such a business before, so she couldn't hold back and said, "If you want $1.5, take it."

"Deal." Jodi was afraid that she would regret it, so he took out his checkbook and wrote the check.

Lorraine realized that the sale was cheap, but she had the check in hand, so she couldn't regret it, so she got up and left.

Jody immediately returned to the company and called the technical staff from the editorial department.

"Here, here, the audio is a little clearer," she said, playing the second time Blanchett spits. "Here, the audio is turned up high to make her voice sound sharper."

Waiting for the video to finish processing, Jody sat behind the desk, thinking about how to attract attention.

As an entertainment reporter with a high degree of professionalism, it didn't take long for Jodi to come up with the news headline.

"Cate Blanchett is suspected of being dissatisfied with certain groups and bombarding the old white male group in Hollywood!"

Anyway, if you are not black, you will not cause troubles such as racial discrimination.

Jody wrote the article and asked the assistant to watch the video and write some news content with the title.

The assistant watched the video again and said, "Boss, can this really attract attention?"

"Absolutely!" Jody exhorted: "Don't forget, you can reprint it if you indicate the source. Hollywood Reporter and Entertainment Weekly will definitely reprint it."

The assistant didn't understand: "Why?"

Jody said: "Because the old white male group in Hollywood is very sensitive, but outdated, there is only one place where they can show their sense of presence and influence. Ten years will count with you."

The assistant was still puzzled.

Jody simply gave an example: "For example, Leonardo just said that he didn't want to steal the Oscar's limelight."

The assistant suddenly realized, and said: "I understand, you are talking about the core group of the college, they are veritable old white men with narrow eyes."

Jody had an idea and thought of another thing: "Blanchett has a grudge against the Academy. In 1999, she was the number one favorite for the Best Actress Oscar, but Gwyneth Paltrow took the top spot. Best actress, Blanchett is taking this opportunity to vent!"

The assistant flattered him: "Tou, you are so awesome!"

…………

On the other side, Martin picked up Elizabeth on the South Hillside, went straight to the Brentwood neighborhood, and drove directly into Leonardo's mansion.

Leonardo and Nicholson were already sitting in the living room chatting.

The former's temporary female companion, Bar Rafaeli, took the initiative to greet her, greeted Martin, and pulled Elizabeth to talk about women's topics.

Bar Refali has a strange relationship with Leonardo, she lives in Leonardo's mansion, she is Leonardo's girlfriend in name, and borrows Leonardo's fame to quickly become popular in the modeling industry.

But she never cared about Leonardo's affairs outside, Leonardo could find as many women as he wanted, even if he brought them back to hold a carnival party, Bar Refaeli would help with the preparations.

Probably this is called what each needs.

Martin chatted with Nicholson and Leonardo for a while, and Lorraine and Bruce entered the living room one after the other.

Lorraine handed the check to Nicholson: "$1.5, all here."

"Take it." Nicholson turned into a generous old father at this time: "You deserve it."

Lorraine suddenly felt that the trio headed by her father was pretty good.
