Chapter 94 The Biggest Competitor

 Before the New Year, Warner Bros. held a press conference and officially announced that it would cooperate with multiple companies to invest in the remake of "The Devil in the Wax Museum" with a production budget of up to US$40 million.

Anyone who has read the script knows that this number is quite exaggerated. How much is actually invested and how much money needs to be laundered are unknown to outsiders.

The producers of the show are Robert Zemeckis and Joe Silver, but Susan Levin is responsible for the specific work.

Warner Bros. has a mature preparation process for filming, and key behind-the-scenes personnel from the director to the director of photography to the casting director signed contracts on the same day.

Before Louise returned to Morocco, she made a special appointment with Susan Levin to go out for a drink. Martin drove the car and accompanied her there.

"The heroine has been finalized. Eliza Cuthbert is a former child star. She has accepted Hillary's invitation for an exclusive interview with the White House." Louise sat in the passenger seat and said the latest information she learned: "It's in style.

It is very high, has a strong upward momentum, and has good popularity with the audience." Martin said: "The role I am competing for is her twin brother." Louise is one of the investors, and she is naturally well-informed: "Your biggest competitor is Pa

Liz Hilton's current boyfriend, Jason Sean, is a model and actor." She reminded: "Don't underestimate other people. At least five people who participate in role auditions have the support of investors." Martin held the steering wheel with one hand,

He patted his head with one hand and said, "Just thinking about it gives me a headache. The competition is so fierce that I can't even get in even if I sharpen my head." It wasn't that Louise participated in the platter, he didn't even have a chance to audition.

Louise's words went straight to the core: "If you have the appeal of a superstar, only the type of role is suitable and the conditions offered by the film crew are suitable." When they arrived at the appointed nightclub, Martin accompanied Louise to enter.

Booked private room.

Susan had already arrived. When she saw Martin, her eyes stayed on his sunny and handsome face for a few seconds, and asked Louise: "Who is this?"

"Martin Davis, my driver and actor." Louise said: "If you drink too much, just make a phone call, and Downey Jr. will come over obediently. I can only bring Martin, the driver, to meet him."

Filmmaker." Susan understood and gently shook Martin's hand without giving him a chance to speak: "Handsome man, would you please leave some private space for the lady?"

"Call me if you need anything." Martin didn't say much and took the initiative to leave. Louise snapped her fingers at the bartender in the private room: "Two glasses of expansion screws." Susan said: "A masterpiece of bartender master Louise." The wine was very good.

Come up quickly, Louise said: "He has a good image, right?" The two have been working hard in Hollywood for many years, and Susan was not reserved: "Seeing him, I understand why you came to see me in person, you are a pervert."

"Do you like ugly ones? Men and women, who doesn't like good-looking ones." Louise sipped her wine gently: "Martin Davis is still a treasure boy. I dug it out from the mire of Atlanta with my own hands. It's valuable.

It's because he is motivated and willing to climb out of the quagmire." Susan became interested: "Tell me about it." Louise roughly said: "He went astray when he was a teenager and got together with smugglers. Those guys

Smuggling goods from Mexico to Georgia, Martin worked as a low-level mule and as a scavenger. As he grew older, his horizons broadened, and he knew that continuing would be a dead end, so he secretly ran away to work as an extra in just two or three years.

I learned a lot..." She boasted about Martin's skills and then added: "Originally, he had hope in life, but he was captured by the original gang and forced him to sign a loan shark and work in a gigolo club to pay off the debt.

, then he got lucky and met me. I saw that his heart jumped out, so I gave him a hand." Susan took a sip of wine, waited for the bubbles to pop in her mouth, and said, "It's not easy for a prodigal to turn back." Louis

Louise shrugged: "He has tasted the ups and downs of life, but he is optimistic like Peter Pan." Susan suddenly thought of Downey: "Here's to our treasure boy." Louise drank with her and took something out of her handbag

Release a disc: ""Zombie Gigolo" starring Martin, if you are interested, you can watch it, it is very interesting."

"I will watch his audition carefully." Susan took the disc and put it away: "Tell him that the focus is on the masculinity of the character and the life-saving protection of his sister." Louise picked up the wine glass: "I respect you.

"Susan clinked glasses with her.

Nearly an hour later, Martin entered the private room and helped Louise leave. After getting in the car, he looked at the female drunkard who drank too much and said, "Your body won't be able to bear it if you drink like this." Louise waved her hand: "

It's okay, it's okay. I'm still young and in good health. Besides, I drank too much and you didn't deliberately seduce me with wine." Martin patted her leg and said, "Sit tight and don't make trouble." The car left Sunset Boulevard and returned.

Louise's villa.

The next morning, Martin sent Louise to the plane, drove to Century City, and entered MA's office lobby.

Thomas sat in the partition and kept talking on the phone. He had been working a lot of overtime recently and was thinking and stressing a lot, and he had bags under his eyes.

Martin sat on another chair and said, "Man, try harder. The crew has announced the recruitment notice for actors. It's the critical moment." Thomas took out a pill bottle, took out the vitamins, threw it into his mouth, and chewed it.

Go down: "How's your side?" Martin said: "I've done everything I need to do, and Susan also mentioned the key words for the audition." He asked: "How's your side?" Thomas said: "The casting director

It's Mary Gale. She hates men with long hair and likes young people with light brown hair." Martin touched his hair: "I'll cut it shorter and dye it later." Thomas looked around and lowered his voice: "Inside the company

There are also people competing for this role. Don't talk to anyone about the situation we have, understand?" Martin said harshly: "Whoever dares to ask me, I will beat the hell out of him." Thomas reminded: "That drama you filmed

Pay attention to Adrian, the male protagonist of the episode." Martin lowered his voice: "Louise said that the biggest competitor is Paris Hilton's current boyfriend Jason Sean." Thomas rubbed his chin: "He

It is indeed a big threat." Martin joked: "I will give you a gun, you go kill him?" Thomas was stunned.

Martin patted the table: "I see you are too nervous. Relax." After finishing filming "Entourage", Adrian came out of the glass cubicle office of his agent John and called his short and ugly follower Tony.

Let's walk outside together.

Tony asked: "Is the hope high?" Adrian was very confident: "For cost reasons, the crew planned to use new faces. My qualifications and acting skills are obviously better. John contacted Robert Downey Jr. and prepared to let him go.

Relationship." Tony knows a lot about industry gossip: "I remember that Downey proposed to Susan Levin last month." Adrian laughed: "So, my hopes are high." He whispered:

"In the worst case, I'll go buy a bag with Donnie." Tony said, "I'll get the goods if necessary."

"We'll talk about it later when necessary." Adrian stopped laughing: "There are two other people in the company who are interested in this role. John is a higher level and has found out the relevant information. The Martin Davis from last time is one of them." Two people.

Arriving on the first floor, Tony went to drive, and Adrian waited for him to come over.

Before the car arrived, Adrian saw Martin coming downstairs. He was moved in his heart, smiled and waved over there: "Hi, Martin, long time no see." Seeing the enthusiastic Adrian, Martin responded with an even more enthusiastic smile.

: "Man, when will the series be broadcast? You are going to be a big star soon." Adrian said: "Don't mention it, I have been struggling for so many years and I haven't made it yet." He turned the topic to Martin: "Inside the company

There are rumors that you are on the rise and are vying for the leading role in Warner Bros.'s horror film."

"It's not really a leading actor, it's a role for the heroine." When Martin spoke, his mind was racing: "I mainly want to see how the movie audition goes. I can be sure that I will accompany him throughout the whole process and it is impossible to get this role.

Adrian felt that Martin had information he didn't understand: "Why do you say that? You are very good at acting." Martin was helpless: "The Hilton family's prostitute is the one who made the video. She brought money to join the group.

Confirmed to play the supporting actress role." Adrian said: "I heard about it."

"Her boyfriend Jason Sean is a model and actor, and she recommended him to the crew." Martin spread his hands: "In this situation, can anyone else win?" He waved his hand: "I won't say anymore, I should go.

I have to go to class." Seeing Martin's lack of interest, Adrian felt a huge threat and took out his mobile phone to call his agent John.

Tony drove over and Adrian got in the car. Not long after driving, his agent called: "I asked several people and I can confirm that the news is true. He will be your main competitor. You are fully prepared."

At one o'clock, I will go and learn more about the situation."

"Damn nepotism!" Adrian couldn't help but cursed. Tony asked: "What happened?" Adrian said carefully: "Fortunately, I got it out of the mouth of that idiot Martin Davis.

News." Tony didn't take Martin seriously at all. After all, on the set of "Entourage" a while ago, Martin Davis was just a supporting actor with very few roles.

He asked again: "How much will our chance of winning be reduced?" Adrian thought carefully and said: "At least half." He tapped the seat lightly: "The audition will start soon, and we don't have much time left.

, we have to think of a way."

"That Jason Sean doesn't care about the tape?" Tony couldn't stand it: "He, a slut like Paris Hilton, is really serious?"

"Rich!" Adrian raised his hand, telling Tony to stop talking and think carefully. Entering 2004, just after the New Year holiday, the crew of the officially named "Horror Wax Museum" announced the audition time, and at the same time gave

Actors selected through the information were sent audition notices and brief role scripts.

The actor's name is Nick Jones, the twin brother of the heroine. Including Martin, after preliminary screening, there are still more than 20 actors competing for this role.
