King of Hollywood

v1 Chapter 43: Do you want to invest?

It's hard to describe Kate opening the door after more than 8 hours and seeing the dusty servant with a tired Adrian mood. She stayed at the door for several minutes, then rubbed her eyes and couldn't believe it A sudden rush into Adrian's arms, too much drive to take Adrian back a few steps back to stand still.

This was not over yet. She blocked Adrian's mouth and sucked it hard the next second. She exchanged fluids for several minutes and refused to give up. She didn't care about the expressions of the pedestrians and the family standing at the door. As if she couldn't express her ecstasy without doing so.

"I can't believe it ... I can't believe it ... you actually ... you actually appeared in front of you ..." Kate held Adrian's face inexorably excited, and his bright eyes flashed with crystals. Light.

"You want me to come, then I'll come over." Adrian shrugged, showing a tired smile, "I'm on vacation now, and it's easy to get to London."

换 This move was exchanged for Kate's unscrupulous kiss again. This is what women do, especially her young women who are loved and emotionally stunned. Once their lover uses actions to show that they place them in the most important place in their hearts, they will be moved beyond their control. If your lover does something trivial, as long as you want me to look like this at any time, it will make them more satisfied.

Adrian, who was a man of two centuries, couldn't be more familiar with these means.

For the next three or four days, Kate naturally stayed with Adrian all the time after asking for leave from school. The two played around and even went to the northernmost tip of the British Isle to see the sea view. Even if her mother reminded her on the phone not to stay home for a long time, she was directly pressed back with "I'm already an adult".

However, Adrian had to return to Los Angeles four days later, as Lafferne called to remind him to attend a party at the Baccarat Hotel on the weekend, as the company's owner, as well as "Two Great Smoke Guns" and "Memory Fragments" The director and producer of Adrian is unlikely to quit, not to mention that there are important things at the party. So even though both of them felt that they weren't finished, they kissed goodbye at Heathrow International Airport.

"Hello, Mr. Adrian, I'm so glad to see you." Adrian, who handed the car keys to the door waiter, had just entered the lobby, and the lobby manager who was staying there welcomed him.

"Hi, Mabbs, how are you?" Adrian smiled and greeted the other side, because during that foolish time, the managers of the famous hotels in Los Angeles almost knew him-this is also a kind of connection.

老 "Like the old one," Mabbs shrugged, "Is there anything I can help you with? Today you seem to ..."

He looked at Adrian behind him by surprise. Adrian probably knew what he was thinking, and although he couldn't help crying, he didn't show it on his face.

"Nothing, I have a party here, in the blue room on the seventh floor." Adrian explained briefly.

"Blue Room?" How could Mabus, as the lobby manager, not know who it was to join the Blue Room gathering, he could not help raising his eyebrows. He hadn't seen the **** for nearly a year. Personally. Of course, as a discerning person, he wouldn't talk much, nodded calmly and let it go aside.

德里 Adrian didn't speak anymore, patted Mabus's shoulder and walked towards the elevator. Quickly arrived on the seventh floor, gave the waiter name outside the door, and he walked into the blue room where the party had just begun.

There are not many or many people in the entire Blue Hall. They talk to each other holding cups in twos and threes. Most of them are employees of Bosworth Films. The others are invited guests: first- and second-line male and female stars, various companies. Producer, director, and more.

Puppet parties are an indispensable part of American life, and those with the title of party animal often don't feel tired even after a few races a night. But parties are not just for carnivals. Those charity dinners, political fundraising dinners, celebrity parties, and so on can all be summarized in the definition of party. Therefore, the party is an important social occasion at some times, which is very helpful for getting to know and developing connections, and there are a lot of people from around the world who are invited to the party today.

"Hi, Ed, you're late." Burland Erwin first found Adrian. He walked over with a smile and shook hands with Adrian.

"Sorry, I need to adjust the jet lag, and the traffic conditions were not very good when I added it." Adrian shrugged and glanced around. "It looks like I should not be the latest one."

"You won't be disappointed." Brandt knew what he was thinking, patted his arm with a smile, and pulled him to a middle-aged man about 45 or 6 years old.

"This is our general manager, Mr. Elaine Edo," said Brandt.

"I'm glad to meet you, Mr. Edo." Adrian held out his hand with a smile.

"Me too, Mr. Cowell, you can call me Elaine." The other side smiled the same. "Although I know you are young, I can't help but be surprised. It is now a young people's world. Yet?"

"It's just a small achievement, I need to work harder-you can call me Adrian."

"This is not a small achievement, Adrian. Few directors can produce two low-cost, high-grossing films in one year, and they have won awards at different film festivals. They are too modest. Just pride. "

"I'm just telling the truth, Elaine, I don't deny that my grades are very good, but I will not ignore the credit of others. Without my production team, without that great general manager, without Universal distribution, without this All things being said, whether we can achieve such results is not certain. "

The two touted and tentatively tested each other, and then Elaine resigned and left, and Brant, who had been nearby, walked over again: "It looks like you guys are talking well."

"It's true that there is an excellent general manager in Universal that has taught me a lot," Adrian nodded to him. "Yes, Brandt, I haven't congratulated you on being promoted to department manager."

我 "I'm just lucky," Brant shrugged. "It happened to meet you."

The two looked at each other, then both laughed. It is clear to each other that it would not be possible for Brandt to appear here today if he only glared at Universal around the world with only Adrian.

"Let's be honest, which movie do you want me to direct?" Scream "or" American "?" Adrian stopped talking and asked straightforwardly.

"You can choose," Brant spread his hand. "The preliminary work of both films is almost ready. You can direct whichever one you want to direct. If you have any opinions on the actors or other aspects, feel free to ask. come out."

"It's really generous, I don't think many people will refuse it." Adrian smiled, allowing Universal to make such a condition. Of course, it was related to the fact that he produced two movies with good box office in one year. It was also related to Scripts sold before.

For example, the campus comedy "Ten Things I Hate You" sold to Universal, when it was released at the end of January this year, it won a box office of 42 million at a cost of more than 10 million. Other movie companies, except Warner, have also made more or less, and Warner ’s "Bodyguard", in which Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner were invited to play according to the tips left by Adrian, although Because the investment is relatively large, in order to achieve the best results, it has been adjusted to this summer's summer vacation. Most people who can participate in the trial will think it is very exciting.

As a result, Adrian's weight in the eyes of the top executives of various film companies is even more important. Universal, which is near the water platform, naturally wants to win him further.

"So you agreed?" Burrant asked quickly.

"I'm sorry, Brandt, although this condition is very tempting, but I have other arrangements." Adrian shook his head and refused. The feeling of pulling was not enough compared to looking up.

"I remember when you were in London last year, you told me that no one knows your script better than you." Brandt continued to persuade.

"I'm really sorry, Brant, I would definitely consider it at some other time, but I have other arrangements now." Adrian said sincerely, "a new movie is already in preparation. UU 看书 www.uukanshu.com ”

It's all like this, and Brandt can't say anything, after all, the other party has its own movie company.

新 "New movie? Your energy is really energetic, and the second work is not yet offline." He said rhetorically, "Well, let's do that, I hope to have a chance to cooperate in the future."

"Maybe we can work together now," Adrian suddenly said, "just working in another way."

"Another way?" Brandt asked inexplicably.

"My new movie has a much larger investment than the previous two. Maybe Universal could consider participating?" Adrian looked at Burland with a smile.

Brandt's eyes suddenly flashed: "May I know what kind of movie you plan to make?"

"A feature film adapted from the second novel of Stephen King's novella" Different Seasons ":" Rita Hayworth and Redemption of Shawshank Prison. "Adrian is not slow. Said.

"I didn't expect you to have Stephen King's idea," exclaimed Brandt. "I think I have to talk to Mr. Elaine first, Ed, but I believe this should be fine."

"I believe it, too." Adrian nodded. With the two works "Two Big Smoke Guns" and "Memory Fragments" and several previous scripts, it was easy to get investment from a big company like Universal.

I just don't know what they will look like after losing money. Adrian said something in his heart. Although "Shawshank's Redemption" is known as the most perfect film in history, and it is basically worthy of this title, only a few people know that the film that invested about 25 million US dollars had less than 30 million box office.
