Chapter 73
Martin sat down on the sofa and began to read the script.
He looked very fast, even a little too fast, but his expression was so serious that Jeff couldn't tell whether he was really looking or pretending.
After a while, I finished reading a stack of scripts.
"this is all?"Martin was a little disappointed.
"What, you didn’t like it?"Jeff was curious.
"Maybe my vision is too high. Forget it, I have"Island" and"Hide and Seek", and my schedule for next year is basically full."
Martin shook his head. In fact, he was not looking for a good script for himself, but for Jessica and Scarlett. Scarlett moved to Los Angeles at the beginning of the year and made appointments with Martin to meet several times.
The two of them They get along exactly like a young couple. They get affectionate every time they meet, but they don’t break the bottom line.
"By the way, Jeff, our movie didn’t catch up with the Golden Globe Awards (in January), so how is the PR for the Oscars?"?"
"There is nothing wrong with being nominated for Best Supporting Actor, but as for winning……"
"Not force."
It's not a duplicity, Martin really doesn't force it.
Because he knows that Bruce Willis is also publicizing the best actor in this movie. It's not just a nomination. Mr. Our Tough Guy has greater ambitions. He wants a statuette.
You must know that after the nomination list was announced, our tough guy spent 1 million US dollars and launched a powerful publicity offensive.
Not only did he buy fifteen pages of space from"Vanity Fair" and"Hollywood Times" to build momentum for himself, he also Hire gunmen to publish critical articles about his performance in"The Sixth Sense" in major newspapers and magazines.
Of course, these articles must be praise.
If Martin also takes action, although the supporting role does not conflict with the protagonist, it will take away media resources..
Moreover, if the leading actor and supporting actor in the same movie are publicized at the same time, it will inevitably scatter the votes of the judges.
Because few judges will vote for the leading actor of a certain movie and then vote for the supporting actor of the same movie. , the same goes for leading actresses and supporting actresses...
In essence, the Oscars are about dividing the cake.
And the most important point is that this Oscar is the one that made Harvey the bad guy famous. He succeeded in taking the one that no one expected. Gwyneth Paltrow became a movie queen and has since become the"stinky meat" that female stars are flocking to.
Martin had tested this guy before and wanted him to help publicize his Best Supporting Actor. He hesitated from the other party. I, looking at his attitude, it can be seen that this fat man has obviously invested his public relations resources elsewhere.

This day, in the evening.
Martin was lying on the bed, talking on the phone with Scarlett
"Congratulations Martin, the youngest Oscar nominee. Wow, you are only 12 years old. I am afraid no one can break this record."
"Thank you, I just did my job. Scarlett, how are you doing? Do you have any new work?"
"No! Scarlett's voice became frustrated,"I have grown too fast recently and lost a lot of opportunities." Damn, my chest is getting bigger and bigger, and it even affects my center of gravity when I walk. I really want to have an operation to make it smaller."
"No~!"Martin exclaimed as he jumped out of bed.
Scarlett's laughter came from the opposite side, and her voice became softer,"Martin~, it's not you who is doing the surgery, why are you so nervous?"
"I'm afraid that you will destroy God's most perfect masterpiece!"Martin's words are right.
"God's most perfect masterpiece? You mean my (breasts)?"Scarlett deliberately pretended not to understand.
"Yes, I love them."Martin made no secret of the
"However, I almost lost my performance because of them, and I, I haven’t grown in height for half a year!
There was sadness in Scarlett's voice.
But her little acting skills could not deceive Martin. Martin did not expose it, but smiled and said:"As long as you don't torment your two big (baby) babies, To thank you, I will tailor a script for you!"
"real?"
Scarlett's voice suddenly became excited, but she still hasn't practiced enough!
"certainly!"
"You are amazing Martin, I love you so much!"

1999, March 21.
The 71st Academy Awards ceremony will be held at the Dorothy Chandler Hall in Los Angeles, California, and a total of 24 Oscar trophies will be awarded.
The long red carpet seemed to be endless as far as the eye could see. Handsome men and beauties gathered together in a star-studded setting.
Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Bruce Willis, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, Meg Ryan... one after another stars walked on the red carpet, causing a scream.
Various evening gowns such as low-neck, deep V, shoulderless, and backless were on display. The female stars competed for beauty, and they looked much better than the male stars in black suits.
Every female star who walks on the red carpet will show her most glamorous side today.
In order to fit into the evening gown that fits the body so well, they often start to eat less a week before, and on the day of the ceremony they even eat or drink to prevent the gown from deforming due to having to go to the toilet midway. Wrinkles and other conditions...
The flashlights on the side of the red carpet were denser than the stars in the sky, recording each handsome or beautiful figure....
Dorothy Chandler Hall today is one giant show.
What is about to be staged is the annual super luxury show that attracts worldwide attention - the Oscars!
At this time, a black car slowly stopped sliding and parked in front of the red carpet.
The car door opened, and Martin in a neat light blue suit stepped out, making the eyes of reporters and fans who had seen many male stars in black suits brighten.
As a child, Martin had the privilege of not wearing a dark gown for a solemn occasion like the Oscars without anyone criticizing him.
The light blue suit matched the color of his eyes.
Because of his perfect proportions, Martin's current height of 1.6 meters appears to be very proportional. He deliberately controlled this height so that he would not look out of place when filming the roles of the little boy in"The Island" and"Hide and Seek".
Once these two movies are completed, he will accelerate his height growth.
Her brown hair is neatly combed back, and she has smooth, marble-like white skin and extremely handsome and three-dimensional facial features.
At this time, Martin is like a perfect ancient Greek sculpture!
With clothes on, of course!
"Martin, Martin!"
"Look here, look here! Fans and reporters shouted loudly.
Martin glanced around and smiled slightly. When everyone thought he was about to walk on the red carpet, he bent down towards the car door and stretched out an arm.
Is there anyone else in the car?
Martin brought a female companion?
Who could it be?
Amid countless questions, a white hand placed on Martin's arm, followed by a long, smooth leg, stepping out of the car, A dazzling figure emerged from the carriage.
"Nicole Kidman?! How did she end up walking the red carpet with Martin?"
"No wonder Tom Cruise left alone just now. I thought they were getting married again!"
"It looks like Martin is going to make a movie with Nicole Kidman?"
"Yes, it was also written by Martin, and Tom Cruise himself admitted it"
"No wonder!"
