Thomas came to the company early on Monday morning. It was relatively early and there were not many people entering the company.

As soon as we entered the lobby on the first floor, front desk assistant Natasha greeted her warmly: "Good morning."

"Morning." Thomas could clearly feel that Natasha's smile was particularly bright today, comparable to when she faced the company's partners.

Natasha beamed: "Congratulations on winning the North American box office chart."

Thomas understood and corrected: "It's not me, it's Martin, my client Martin Davis."

Natasha took a step closer: "The customers you have cultivated."

Thomas knew very well that he had indeed put in a lot of effort, but many things were not done by him, such as the film and characters, and the resources were mostly provided by Martin himself.

Natasha's position as a front desk assistant belongs to the management of the mail room. In the company she came to in the summer, the front desk assistant was not considered a good position among the many positions in the mail room.

She took another step towards Thomas: "You have cultivated Martin, a star client, and I think you will have an independent office soon. Thomas, if you need an assistant, don't forget me."

Thomas quickly took a step to the side: "I will remember it."

He was about to go to the elevator when he looked up and saw senior partner Jim Witt and said hello quickly.

Jim Witt nodded in response, stopped and called Thomas over: "Martin is the male lead in the wax museum, right?"

Thomas said: "Yes, he is definitely the leading actor. He gave the company another box office champion this year."

Jim Witt was very satisfied: "This little guy Martin did a good job, and so did you."

Thomas laughed, not forgetting to borrow his client's name to brag: "Martin often said that he and I are gold medal partners."

"Keep working hard!" Jim Witt encouraged: "Martin has great potential, and I am optimistic about his future."

Thomas was overjoyed at first, and when Jim Witt walked to the high-rise elevator, he was suddenly surprised again.

Brokers poach each other, and there shouldn’t be too many in the circle. It’s not uncommon for partners in the same company to steal the clients of smaller brokers.

In the past, Martin was just a potential actor.

The success of the wax museum will probably attract the attention of many people.

When going upstairs, Thomas remembered another important thing, Martin's contract!

Martin is a new client. According to laws and regulations, WMA can only sign a one-year contract.

Wait for one year to expire before you can sign the actor's longest three-year contract.

It's already October, and Martin's contract will expire in two months.

By then, even if Martin renews his contract with WMA, he can still choose a new agent.

The customer is unknown, Thomas is worried.

The client has become famous, but Thomas is still worried.

When he came to the partition and sat down, Thomas couldn't help but scratch his head, and a dozen hairs fell down.

"Hey Thomas, congratulations."

The neighbor who usually doesn't talk much, the agent in the partition on the left is lying on the partition: "Your client won the box office championship with the male lead, which is amazing!"

He pointed to Thomas' partition: "Oh, you can move out soon."

Thomas shook his head: "Nothing."

The neighbor asked curiously: "Where did you discover Martin Davis? Give me some experience. Why can't I meet such a good potential customer?"

Another agent passing by also became interested: "Thomas, the leading male lead in the North American box office chart, don't hide your secrets."

The neighbor added: "How did you get the lead actor in a big production worth 40 million US dollars? Let me introduce you."

The neighbor on the other side also came to join in the fun: "I won't let you introduce me in vain. I'll treat you after get off work today. Grapevine Manor or Avalon? It's your choice!"

Colleagues who usually only nodded to each other suddenly became so enthusiastic that it was difficult for Thomas to adapt.

But his head is still clear, and he knows that all this is because Martin, as the protagonist, won the North American box office chart.

These smiling colleagues might have secretly bought a shovel.

Agents are part of the entertainment industry. What Thomas said to Martin in the past also applies to him. He declined with a smile: "I'm going to have a meeting. Let's talk later."

…………

Atlanta, just after noon, Beast House Club.

Vincent stretched and came out of the rest room, and saw Hart running in from outside in a hurry.

This guy ran and shouted: "Big news, big news."

Vincent came to the fence on the second floor: "What's going on?"

Hart shook the newspaper in his hand: "The movie starring Martin's father, House of Wax, won the North American box office list! The first weekend box office was US$0.13 million!"

Hearing this, Vincent ignored the boss's arrogance and walked down from the second floor. Because he was walking too fast, he dropped his cowboy hat that he was not wearing, so he didn't even look back to pick it up.

He took the newspaper from Hart's hand and couldn't help but laugh when he saw the box office champion and figures published on it, as well as Martin's image on the movie poster.

His smile was so big that his big aquiline nose was trembling: "I knew this guy Martin was a talent! Did you see it? I didn't make a mistake!"

Hart nodded repeatedly from the side: "Martin's father can get away with wherever he is."

Vincent said: "It was me who had a good eye and gave him a chance to discover him."

Hart has different opinions in his heart, but Vincent is the boss, and the boss has the final say.

Carrington came in from the outside at this time, and Hart shouted to him: "Martin's father has won the North American box office championship. Let's book a flight to Thailand now. Martin's father has always wanted a daughter!"

"Martin's father is so awesome." Carrington first praised, and then said sadly: "Hart, we have missed the best opportunity."

Hart understands that the most suitable opportunity is to go to Thailand when he is in Atlanta, but now it is too late!

His eyes were red and he said sadly: "It's all our fault for not having the determination!"

Vincent put down the newspaper and called his stepmother Sophia to tell her the good news.

Because the more successful Martin is, the greater the success of their investment in Geshan Youyan may be.

Marietta Community Theater.

A van drove to the entrance of the theater, and Robert brought several students to pick up the goods.

The driver opened the trunk door and found boxes of Coke inside. He asked, "Unload the truck now?"

Robert held his hands behind his back and looked like a senior acting teacher. He hooked up with several students and said at the same time: "Be optimistic about the production date. If it's not the 2003 Coca-Cola, I don't want it."

One student was very curious: "Teacher, why do you have to choose Coke from 2003?"

Robert thought for a while and made up a suitable reason: "Martin Davis likes to drink the 2003 Coke the most. I bought it and kept it for him."

Another student asked: "That Martin Davis who just came out of the theater and won the box office championship?"

Robert said: "That's him."

These students are all very motivated, looking at the production date, carrying Coke to Robert's office, and dreaming of becoming the next Martin Davis.

Half of the Coke produced in 2003 was unloaded in the office, and Robert asked the driver to send the other half to his home as strategic supplies.

Martin gave Robert a car.

Robert will reward you with countless Cokes from 2003.

What Martin didn't know was that before "Horror House of Wax" was released, Robert solemnly performed a Coke Ceremony in his office and at home, facing the west.

The effect seems to be very good.

Marietta Public High School, inside the slightly dilapidated basketball gym.

Lily and a few followers cornered the blonde girl Lindsay in the dressing room.

Facing the female bully in school, Lindsay stepped back unconsciously: "What do you want to do? I'll tell you..."

Lily strode forward: "Bichi, you publicly declared that The House of Horror Wax Museum is a super bad movie and urged people not to watch it? Is that what you said?"

"What does this have to do with you?" Lindsay hit her back against the closet and had no way to retreat.

Lily approached step by step: "Did you know that Martin is my neighbor and grew up with me!"

She waved her long arm: "Hold her down, I want to give her some strength, let her know what to say and what not to say."

Six strong girls from the basketball team came out from behind and easily subdued Lindsay.

Lily didn't go too far, she just gave a stern warning, stuffed a smelly sock, and took the people away.

On the school bus home, Lily took out a copy of the "Hollywood Reporter" specially brought from the Marietta Community Theater Group, which only had the entertainment section.

On the second page, there is a large photo of Martin and news reports.

"Hollywood's new power: Martin Davis!"

Lily read carefully and found many familiar shadows.

"In 1981, Martin Davis was born in a poor community in Atlanta. Five years after he came to this world, his parents separated. His mother fell into a river while driving drunk, and his father was a drug addict and a liar.

, was addicted to alcohol and drugs. In such an environment, Martin fell in love with acting and made it his goal..."

"Martin's childhood life was not happy. Poverty and loneliness were always with him. Due to the extremely irresponsible guardian, he had to do odd jobs to support himself when he was young. This made him lack of friends in school and became the object of ridicule...Martin once

I wanted to give up acting, but this was Martin's dream after all, and he finally embarked on this path."

Then there are all kinds of hardships in life, which are more exaggerated than Lily's actual experience.

Lily actually knows very well that Elena has shouldered most of the family's hardships, and she has much less direct experience.

"Martin has been working hard and never gave up. He finally waited for the opportunity last year and made his debut with "Zombie Gigolo" invested by Gray Films. He officially entered the field of film and television acting, and then he became the leading actor in "Horror House of Waxwork" today!"

"This is a young actor who has emerged from hardship. He has outstanding acting talent, is independent, self-reliant and hardworking! This is an outstanding male protagonist, handsome and talented..."

People like Lily, who are familiar with Martin, really can’t stand it anymore, the flattery is too much.

It's just a matter of telling the true representation of the American dream.

She is one of the people who knows Martin’s personality best.

In addition, Lily was not very happy because she and the Carter family were not mentioned in the article.
