King of Hollywood

v1 Chapter 127: Ready to work

The cheerful music echoed in the room. Although the little figure twisted with the rhythm was a bit awkward, but the chubby little face was filled with a smile, looking very happy and cheerful. Of course, it would be even better if she could wear the dress that she saw on the first day. It must be as beautiful as a doll. The short-sleeved t-shirt and plump shorts she is wearing now only make the clumsy little girl more prominent. — But also more cute.

Adrian sat on the chair and looked at the jumping Emma with a smile, while clapping with the music, waiting for the little girl to jump in front of her, holding her hand to make her turn a few times, and she looked happy. I think this is very interesting. Emma swayed and jumped up two or three times before coming to Adrian to make a circle. As a result, because she made too many turns, she fell to the ground after being crooked again. Drian hugged her in time.

"Be careful, little guy, it wouldn't be good if it fell to the ground." Adrian rubbed her head a bit.

Although a little dazed by too many turns, Emma giggled and grabbed his collar. Naughty is a must-have skill for every child. Anyway, it can't be stopped, and Adrian has to play with her.

"Ed, let's dance," Emma yelled, twirling his collar milky, and was particularly comfortable in his ears. His bright eyes opened wide, which made him unbearable.

"That won't work, my waist will be uncomfortable." Adrian squeezed her little nose. She had already accompanied the little girl to skip it once because she was worried about falling her and had to follow her carefully. The rhythm is turning, and it has to bend over for a long time. This taste is enough again. Besides, he has other things to say.

"Well, Emma, ​​I have something to tell you." Adrian grabbed the little girl by the shoulder and placed her in front of herself.

"Huh?" The little girl blinked and looked at him for unknown reasons.

"This ... I may be going back ..." He said a little slyly. As soon as the voice fell, the little guy's face collapsed, raising his fist and knocking on Adrian for a while: "Not allowed"

"Listen to me, Emma?" Adrian coaxed.

"No, no, no," the little girl's head shook like a rattle, not only keeping her hands moving but also glaring at him fiercely. If he dares to speak again, he will never ignore him in the future. Meaning.

Adrian laughed bitterly, and he knew it would happen. Well, he doesn't mind spending a few more days with the little girl. After all, she promised her when she left in the new year, and she will return at most 3 months later. Although it was dragged to the end of May because of irresistible factors, but after all Lost appointment first.

It is just that he now has a reason to go back. It is one thing that Vulgar Novel will premiere soon, and the preparation of Howard Manor is the second thing. It was so easy for Emma Thompson to promise to act as the heroine, and let Lafferne send someone to sign the film with the other party. After the formal agreement was settled, of course, you must sign Anthony Hopkins while the iron was hot. But personally told Thompson that she would do her best to invite Hopkins to act as the leading actor-which probably also strengthened her confidence in acting as the leading actor.

Adrian had already mentioned the film with Hopkins at the celebration party for "The Silent Lamb" on Oscar Night, when Hopkins neither refused nor agreed. Now that he has successfully won the golden palm, and coupled with the invitation to Emma Thompson, the possibility of convincing him to gamble is still very high.

But Adrian must move fast. If Hopkins's schedule can not be staggered, it will be very difficult to handle. After all, he is a new film director, and there must be a lot of producers who come to the door.

"Okay, Emma, ​​will you listen to me?" After the little girl was full of trouble, Adrian continued to coax again. Although Emma wanted to continue, her energy was already used up, Can only lean over his head and ignore her.

"You have to understand, dear, everyone has their own business to do," Adrian said no matter how much, said to himself, "I also want to spend more time with you here, but sometimes It ’s not what you want to do, you know? Okay, I promise here, I ’ll be back for up to two to three weeks, and I ’ll be here with you for two to three months. For a long time. "

"Cheat" Emma muttered, but turned to look at Adrian's expression but hesitated.

Adrian smiled, held her whole body in her arms, stroked her hair and continued, "I know this time I missed the appointment, but the previous promises were made, did you forget it. "

At this point, he was stunned, followed by a funny sigh in his heart. Will the child reason with you? Adrian immediately took hold of the little girl's face and looked at her bright eyes seriously and said, "In short, I promise, I can do it this time."

Emma muttered her mouth, and although she was still reluctant, she nodded her head: "I see."

Finally, the little girl was done, and Adrian laughed immediately, then kissed her on the pink face. He didn't see Emma struggling to leave her embrace, and waved her little fist very secretly, her eyes dripping slickly, not knowing what the idea was.

The next day, Adrian flew back to Los Angeles, which was tantamount to announcing the end of his vacation and then plunging into work. In fact, there is not much work to do, most of them just make decisions and then leave it to other people to handle. It's just that although most things are just a matter of inquiries, it's tiring to do more.

Of course, the most important thing at the moment is the premiere of "Vulgar Fiction". After the Cannes Film Festival, the entertainment media started to stir up this movie. Although Golden Palm is not as famous in the United States as Oscar, it is the most well-known international film festival after all, and it is still very influential among film critics and independent film circles.

Coupled with Adrian's record as the youngest Golden Palm or, this film is a cult style work full of violence and black humor style, and the previous literary drama film about him Being refrigerated caused a lot of controversy, so "Vulgar Novel" appeared on the front page of the media for a long time.

But any hotspot can only last for a while, and Adrian, who is the soul of the film, disappeared after the Cannes Film Festival ended, or went to deal with private affairs, and the media wanted to interview him. To the people, so I had to turn over some lace and gossip, such as "John Travolta's Turnover", "Wizard directed Italian Muse" and so on. So now, with the heat of Cannes, the fever has begun to decline, so La Verne seized the opportunity to hold the premiere at this time.

All the premieres are no different. They just go to the scene and let reporters take a few photos to answer a few questions, and then communicate with the guests who came to the premiere, and continue to answer questions at the press conference after the screening.

For Adrian, who has participated in the premiere and walked the red carpet several times, the first and third are really not attractive. Besides, stars are the main target of journalists at this time. Although Adrian now has a reputation as a wizard director and is compelling for its newsworthiness, it is not the same as a star.

Therefore, his main energy is still on the middle one, and sometimes he will be surprised at the premiere.

"I've seen the movie you said, it's really interesting, but the French obviously spoiled the idea, and the plot was long and unfocused." James Cameron and Adrian By the way, because the publishing company of Vulgar Novel is 20th Century Fox, he was also invited to the premiere.

"So you're willing to remake this movie?" Adrian asked immediately.

"Why not? I could have conceived it in my head many times, the one you said last time, the shot of Arnold driving a fighter plane between skyscrapers," Cameron shrugged, "Don't tell me , You changed your mind. "

"How could it be," Adrian laughed. "That's it. I'll have someone sign the film with you tomorrow, and then try to get the screenwriters out of the script within half a month."

After a pause, he said again, "However, given your performance, I think we have to get a movie company to invest. Do you think Fox is suitable or Paramount is suitable? Or another company?"

"Why ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ I'm so arrogant in your eyes?" Cameron spread his hands a little annoyed.

"That's right, that's it, and I bet the movie's investment will reach 100 million US dollars. You will definitely ask the military to lease a fighter jet directly," Adrian said politely. "Even if you give You do n’t have a budget of 100 million, and sooner or later you will be asked to add so much more. And, I believe that no matter how much money you give, you will spend all of this movie. "

"It's really surprising that you know me so well." Cameron laughed, a little self-deprecating and proud, and then he waved his hand: "So let's wait, I'll wait for your good news."

Seeing him go away, Adrian couldn't help chuckling twice. The past life remembered the costs and box office of these blockbusters. Although "The True Lie" searched 400 million box office worldwide, but the cost was 100 million. The dollar was one dollar, and the movie company didn't actually make much money, so he wanted to attract other movie companies together. One is to reduce the risk, and the other is to win the relationship. If you eat alone, you can also score points. For example, the movie after Cameron has to win it anyway.

While Adrian was thinking, an ambiguous and somewhat familiar voice passed into his ear: "Are you thinking of any good ideas, Ed?" ()
