America achieves both fame and fortune

Chapter 663 Water Gun, Water Guns Again

In a luxury residential area near the mountains of Malibu, four minivans slowly drove into a large villa.

The car doors opened, and one by one, the female stars got out and arrived at the main entrance guarded by Bruce.

As agreed beforehand, Son Ye-jin was the first to take out her phone and bag, put them into the bag Bruce handed her, and zipped it up to seal the bag.

Jun Ji-hyun and Song Hye-kyo then followed.

Others followed suit.

Upon entering the gate, the women saw Martin, who was wearing a well-fitting swim trunk and carrying a long water gun. He took off his sunglasses and said, "Ladies, you can go change into your swimsuits now. Today's party theme is a sport that has become popular all over the world thanks to Leonardo DiCaprio."

Song Hye-kyo looked at the water gun Martin was carrying: "A water gun battle?"

"Bingo!" Martin snapped his fingers. "Five of you are in my group, eight are in Leonardo's group, and the rest are in Jack Nicholson's group."

Han Ga-in jumped up and raised her hand: "I want to be in a group with Martin!"

Martin said very seriously, "It's not too late to make a decision after you finish speaking. My team will be besieged by Leonardo's team and Nicholson's team. The first team to lose will have to perform live."

Jun Ji-hyun asked, "What are you performing?"

Martin exclaimed, "A 100-meter sprint!"

Others did not understand what he meant.

Martin put it simply: "A sprint into the valley with a gun in hand."

He slapped the water gun a little harder: "Ladies, you might want to think about this when you change into your swimsuits."

Before leaving, Son Ye-jin asked, "Why were you attacked by the other two groups?"

Martin said, "Because I'm fast, strong, have good stamina, and shoot accurately..."

These actresses were no novices; they immediately understood what he meant.

After leaving the locker room, Jun Ji-hyun, Son Ye-jin, Song Hye-kyo, Han Ga-in, and Im Yoon-ah chose to team up with Martin, while the rest split into two groups and joined Leonardo DiCaprio and Nicholson's team.

Three groups of men and women in swimsuits quickly gathered in the villa's largest banquet hall.

Leonardo DiCaprio, holding up a delicate little water gun, explained the rules.

The entire first floor of the villa served as the battlefield. The participants were divided into three groups—red, yellow, and blue—based on the color of the water gun bullets. Those hit would have the corresponding color left on their bodies. They could remove a piece of cloth to wipe off the color and continue the battle, but the cloth had to be thrown away. If they were hit again, the ladies could continue doing the same thing, while the gentlemen would be eliminated and forced to leave the battlefield.

The party games fully embodied the principle of giving preferential treatment to women.

The battle quickly began.

Martin held up a long, thick water gun that held the most water-like bullets and shot the farthest and most accurately.

However, the other two groups had a larger and stronger force.

Soon, Son Ye-jin and Song Hye-kyo on Martin's side were hit twice in a row, forcing them to fight in their original forms.

One after another, female celestial warriors perished in the battle.

Martin became a lone commander, in every sense of the word.

However, he used his flexibility and guerrilla tactics to clear out the clothes of the other two groups, and then took out members of Leonardo's group one by one. He was then surrounded by Nicholson's group and was unfortunately shot and killed.

Martin called out, "Leo, get your team ready with the talent show!" He waved, "Ladies, come and watch the show!"

Leonardo DiCaprio accepted his bet and, without hesitation, the South Korean actresses in his group all came to his side.

How could that bastard Nicholson let Leonardo off the hook? He shouted, "Go for it, Leonard! Break your 20-second record!"

Martin, meticulous in his work, corrected him, "Leo can now sprint the 100 meters in 22 seconds!"

As if by magic, Nicholson pulled a stopwatch from his crotch: "For Leo's reputation, I'll keep a precise time!"

Leonardo turned around and gave Martin and Nicholson the middle finger!

How could Martin possibly let this opportunity to mess with him slip by? He clapped his hands and shouted, "Ladies, let's cheer for Leos!"

Jun Ji-hyun waved to both sides, shouting to get the beat: "Leos-mida!"

The others shouted in unison, "Go for it!"

True to his word, Leonardo DiCaprio displayed excellent sportsmanship and quickly began performing with his teammates.

After warming up, he thrust it in forcefully.

Nicholson kept his eyes glued to Leonardo's vitals, simultaneously pressing the stopwatch. Less than ten breaths later, he paused the shot and yelled at the panting Leonardo, "Leo, you've gotten stronger! That bastard Martin slandered you! Your 100-meter sprint time is clearly 24 seconds!"

Martin admitted, "My mistake, my mistake, I completely underestimated the famous 100-meter sprinter Leonardo!"

Everyone around burst into laughter.

I didn't understand what Martin and Nicholson meant by 22 seconds in the 100 meters before, but now I understand it all.

Once Martin confirmed Leonardo's latest 100-meter speed, he called out, "My team members, should we move our meeting to another location?"

"Let's go to the reception room on the east side." Son Ye-jin pulled Martin along, "The carpet there is very nice, and you can see the mountain view."

Jun Ji-hyun and Song Hye-kyo came over and each took Martin's arm.

Han Ga-in and Im Yoon-ah followed automatically.

The first round of the water gun battle has ended, but the second round has just begun.

Martin switched to a different water gun.

The target of the attack became his team members.

That night, Martin fully experienced the joy of being a South Korean chaebol.

However, being a chaebol in South Korea is not easy. His team members are quite distinctive, while many of Nicholson's team members seem to be cut from the same mold.

So much so that the old bastard kept mistaking people for others the next morning.

Fortunately, none of that mattered. Leonardo had prepared a raffle box on site, from which everyone could draw a mystery gift.

In addition, the singer will be specifically introduced to Hollywood record companies.

The actress will be given a significant supporting role in several Hollywood film projects.

Even if he didn't like either of them, Leonardo still prepared other gifts.

Having thrown so many parties, the trio of bastards are known for their meticulousness and have a great reputation in this regard.

Leonardo DiCaprio has a lot of resources at his disposal. Not to mention anything else, his upcoming film "The Wolf of Wall Street" alone can provide a large number of female roles.

After leaving the villa, Martin led Son Ye-jin, Jun Ji-hyun, and the other three to WMA's headquarters in Century City.

He had also heard Thomas mention that WMA was planning to expand its business in Asia.

Since these people were interested in joining WMA, it was just a matter of course for Martin to recommend them. As for how to poach them or how to develop business, that was beyond his control.

Thomas obtained the contact information of five people and called the head of the Asian business, earnestly recommending them.

Martin then personally drove the five people back to their hotel, during which they naturally exchanged contact information.

John Wick 2 didn't premiere in South Korea, but Martin Scorsese might go there for the next one.

Samsung's GG filming is complete, and these South Korean actresses will soon return to Seoul.

In addition to Leonardo's payment, Martin and Nicholson also gifted them a generous souvenir.

In the afternoon, the three bastards reunited at Nicholson's house.

Nicholson leaned back on the sofa, his mouth slightly open, his eyes vacant and unfocused, like a walking corpse.

Martin shook his head: "I told you long ago, one is enough, but you had to drag a whole bunch along."

Leonardo asked tentatively, "You old bastard, you're not going to get into trouble, are you?"

"You're the one who'll get into trouble!" Nicholson's eyes found their focus, and he said, "I'm just reminiscing. Although they have a bit of a tech vibe, they're definitely beauties compared to the bunch of oddballs Leo found."

"I have a suggestion." What to do when there are no outsiders? Of course, use your own people. Martin said, "I'll pay for all the beauties Leo brought out last time, and let Leo go to the party alone."

Nicholson clapped his hands in approval: "Great idea!"

Leonardo DiCaprio said, "Do you think I'm like those malicious media outlets, unable to distinguish between basic beauty and ugliness?"

Martin patted Leonardo on the shoulder heavily: "Dude, you should go to Thailand, there are tons of beautiful women there."

"You're trying to trick me again!" Leonardo DiCaprio said with an expression that said, "Bill from Kill Bill, who played David Carradine, died from having too much fun in Thailand."

Nicholson said mysteriously, "I've heard about this from insiders. His body was tied with a rope, one end strangling his neck and the other end strangling his brother."

Martin suddenly remembered that he had seen news about this before. At that time, the fact that domestic entertainment news could report on a Hollywood actor who was not even a second-tier star was partly due to the bizarre manner of his death, and partly because David Carradine was filming in Bangkok at the time, and the female lead of the film was Fan Bingbing.

Leonardo DiCaprio added, "As for the compensation, I've taken care of everything. Some of them will be involved in the filming of 'The Wolf of Wall Street,' while others will be involved in two other film projects."

Martin then said to Leonardo, "When your or my new film premieres in Korea, let's go there and have a party."

Nicholson, panting heavily, still managed to shout, "Count me in!"

The three bastards reached a new agreement: Leonardo would organize parties for European models or actresses, while Martin would take charge of parties in Asia.

Nicholson is getting old; from now on, he'll just be responsible for producing a hook-eight.

In late May, Samsung's new GG was launched globally, and the overall response was quite good.

News reports from South Korea indicate that some Korean newspapers are seriously discussing Martin Davis's Korean ancestry, and some are even sending people over to interview him.

Martin made a phone call to Samsung, and the conglomerate immediately taught these brainless media outlets and so-called scholars and experts a lesson.

By the end of May, preparations for "The Martian" were complete, and filming began at the Disney Studios.

Before joining the film crew, Martin attended a celebration party held by Disney for "John Wick 2".

After four weeks of screenings, the film grossed over $2 million at the North American box office, bringing its total to $2.11 million.

Overseas, "John Wick 2" has also received excellent reviews and high attendance, appearing in more than 80 countries and regions, and grossing $2.33 million at the international box office.
