America Tycoon: The Wolf of Showbiz

What do you do when faced with someone who lacks integrity? Martin demonstrated to the crew that you must fiercely push back!

And so, he struck back hard.

Director Leterrier called cut.

But the performances of the male and female leads didn't stop.

In professional terms: The highly professional and dedicated male and female leads were so immersed in their characters' emotions that they couldn't pull themselves out.

Martin and Jolie were too deep into their roles.

This led to them being unable to differentiate between reality and acting.

Despite dozens of onlookers from the crew, the two continued to kiss passionately.

Jolie's leg was wrapped around Martin's waist.

Since today's filming was already completed and there was no work delay, no one came up to disturb the two.

At the resting area, Morgan Freeman was about to sit down for a break when he saw this shameless pair and suddenly didn't want to stay any longer, calling out, "Adina, let's go back to the hotel early."

The black girl obediently followed Freeman.

Jolie separated from Martin and asked, "Teacher, what should we do next? You teach me."

Martin expressed in a different way, "Kelly and Louise are still waiting for me at the hotel."

Upon hearing this, Jolie lit up like a raging fire, seemingly unstoppable, much like a flood breaking through a dam.

She wished she could enact a student's rebellion right there and let Martin know the ruthlessness of fire and water.

Martin had already figured out Jolie's psyche; there were many like Cao Zei in the groups from his past life.

Jolie grabbed Martin and started to pull him outside.

Martin did not initiate, promise anything, or refuse; Jolie pulled him out of the studio.

Chris Pratt stood at the studio door, looking at the swaying trailer, and thought to himself whether the story here would create a media storm if it got out.

He slapped his forehead, realizing he was wrong; if the story really got out and the people involved admitted to it, it would cause a media frenzy!

Struggling at the bottom, Pratt suddenly understood that for actors, dating is not just dating, it's also equivalent to a career ladder.

Mene stepped out of the studio and said to Bruce, "The boss's charm is really something; without much effort, Jolie took the initiative."

Bruce knew more than he did, "Martin didn't do much, but everything he did was just right, firmly grasping Jolie's heart."

Mene said with a gloomy face, "Why can't I be like that."

Bruce revealed the key, "Your talent is all in your words."

Mene thought about it and indeed that was the case; everyone has a talent in which they excel.

After a long period of time, the shaking of the trailer finally stopped.

Inside the trailer, Martin took a shower, changed his clothes, and sat down on the sofa chair, so comfortable he didn't want to move.

Jolie lay on another sofa chair and took out her phone to look at a selfie she took with Louise. But when she looked at Martin, she found him handsome, cool, and strong.

The feeling of stealing her friend's man was so thrilling it left her feeling high and unwilling to come down.

Jolie, dressed only in a white shirt, asked, "Would you like something to drink?"

Martin glanced at the trailer's liquor cabinet, "Pour me a glass of Jim Beam."

Jolie poured two glasses, handed one to Martin, clinked glasses with him, took a sip, and specifically asked, "How's my technique compared to the two of them?"

Martin looked at this female version of Cao Zei and figured this wouldn't be the last time. For the sake of future enjoyment, he decided to tell the truth, "You're not as skilled as they are, and you lack a bit in technique."

Jolie refused to accept that, "How's that possible!"

Martin pointed to himself, "The real expert is sitting right here."

Jolie drank up the whiskey in her glass in one go, secretly vowing that next time she'd use all her tricks to impress Martin.

Suddenly, she remembered the most important point, "You're not going to leave them because of me, are you?"

Martin was startled, "I haven't even thought about that question."

Jolie thought further than he had, "Those two, especially Louise, are very important to you, for the sake of your future, don't leave them for now."

Today was her most gratifying experience, and aside from Martin's abilities and skills, Jolie believed that the psychological factor also played a key part.

As for now, the psychological factor cannot be allowed to vanish.

Jolie hesitated for a moment and then added, "I have some things to deal with on my end that will take some time, once I have them sorted, nothing else will matter."

The scoundrel Martin knew what Jolie was referring to, and that was exactly what he needed. Right away, he said, "I don't mind, you're the priority."

What a perfect match, a rotten man and a rotten woman.

The more Jolie thought, the more she realized that Teacher Martin's enlightening spear had opened up paths she'd never before traversed.

Smooth communication was key; Jolie calculated that next month she'd first use Pitt to create a buzz, see the market response to "Mr. & Mrs. Smith," and then dump Pitt.

After that, before the release of Wanted Order, she'd stir up another wave with Martin, basking in the hype twice in a row.

If one of the two films was a big hit, she'd pull herself out of the mire of consecutive box office failures, possibly even becoming a box office panacea.

She'd also use the momentum of these two to build up a perfect public image of love for family and children.

The thought alone made her realize that with just a little luck with these two stunts, she'd make a fortune!

Martin seemed to be still basking in the afterglow, leaning back in the armchair with his eyes closed, rejuvenating.

Admiring her friend's handsome companion, an even hotter idea suddenly sprang to mind.

The first wave stayed the same, forcing Pitt to divorce Aniston, then for the second wave, she'd encourage Martin to pursue Aniston. A love triangle between her, Martin, and Aniston would surely set off a media explosion!

Professor Martin's careful mentoring had finally brought his student into a real period of transformation.

The more Jolie thought about it, the better she felt the plan was.

Martin appeared to be asleep, asking nothing, innocent as a white lotus.

Jolie decided to vaccinate Martin in advance, saying, "There's something I want to discuss with you, about the issue I consulted you on before…"

She briefly recounted the events that took place during the filming of "Mr. & Mrs. Smith," and asserted with certainty, "Ever since I decided to cooperate with you on Wanted Order, I haven't had anything to do with Pitt and will never be involved with him again. I swear on my mother and son's names!"

Martin, fearing Jolie might change her mind, made a point of saying, "So, you asked me those questions to hype up this matter?"

Jolie nodded, "I can't afford another failure."

Martin gave her a firm shove forward, "I fully support you. If there's anything I can help with, just say the word. I can mobilize some resources on my end."

Jolie didn't fully trust Martin, but just as Martin wanted to use the media attention Jolie generated, Jolie wanted to make use of Martin's tangible and intangible resources.

At the core, they were using each other.

Jolie continued, "In fact, I've done a lot of groundwork for public opinion."

Martin inquired, "About you and the kids, and the reports that Pitt likes children while Aniston doesn't want them?"

"Exactly those," Jolie said with a resigned smile. "If it wasn't for your incident with Burbank Middle School, they probably would've taken off by now."

The scheming pair carefully planned so that only Pitt and Aniston would be hurt, while they and their movies reaped the profits in a tacit agreement.

Jolie didn't mention her ideas about Martin and Aniston for now; she wasn't sure she could persuade Martin.

Martin left Jolie's trailer and was the first to leave the Gray Film and Television Center.

To any inquiries, he had only one response for the time being: he had discussed the role and the plot with Jolie.

As long as the parties involved didn't confess, Hollywood had never seen infidelity.

In Hollywood, it was common for crew members to be couples, but until the individuals involved admitted it, it was just a rumor.

Martin returned to his hotel, sharing a car ride with Bruce and Mene.

Bruce handed him some documents, "These are from Ivan, sent over earlier today. After a call I made yesterday, Sophia, to be safe, had someone gather information on Tayler Perry, including some photos of his activities in South City yesterday."

Martin first looked at the photos, pausing when he saw the ones with Taylor and the driver.

The driver looked familiar. After careful recollection, Martin remembered - this was the unlucky guy who got hurt by a glass bottle of Coke thrown by Robert, although he couldn't remember his name.

Those two were working together now?

The information Sophia collected showed that this guy named Kyle had become Tayler Perry's driver two months ago and was highly trusted and valued by Taylor.

Martin asked, "Is that all?"

Bruce replied, "Taylor also made a trip to the ATL Methodist Association headquarters."

That name was all too familiar to Martin; he had essentially used the Methodist Association as a stepping stone to climb out of the muck.

Martin didn't say much at the time and kept reading Taylor's background. The man's life had been full of misfortune; after moving from Louisiana to Atlanta, he was abused by his carpenter father and dropped out of school early, severing ties with his original family before he turned 16.

A shadow of the Methodist Association had always been present in Taylor's subsequent development.

Did the opponent show up here yesterday, overconfident and probing? It was possible, especially since Taylor had just turned a 5 million dollar production budget into a 50 million dollar box office success, which could grant enormous confidence.

Moreover, a Black man from South City.

When Martin returned to the hotel, Kelly Gray and Louise were not there. He sent them a message and then had dinner with Mene and Bruce.

The three also had a discussion.

At eight-thirty, Kelly and Louise, who had been visiting her home, returned to the hotel room.

Martin made a point of bringing up the matter, emphasizing, "Tayler Perry is very likely to be involved with the Methodist Association."

"No need to guess," Kelly took a bottle of water from Martin, "Perry Studios was originally invested in and funded by the Methodist Association. The funds for most of 'Diary of a Mad Black Woman' that Taylor made came from the Methodist Association and its backing forces, similar to my situation."

Louise asked, "His movies target a completely different audience from us, there's no competition. Is this just to get back at you for producing the pink kettle?"

As an important member of the Atlanta free movement, Kelly had her own channels for information, "Perry Studios wants to develop a film and television base, and I am their biggest competitor."
