King of Hollywood

v2 Chapter 43: Coming soon

"I believe that before the release of Tornado, many people were not optimistic about the director Jan De Bont. Except for this time he directed the film, the investment was still so huge that it was tantamount to gambling. But Adri as the producer Ann Cowell insisted that he insist on using him who has no qualifications in directors. The facts once again proved that the miracle director or gold medal producer's vision, Warner and Bosworth Pictures made a lot of money. full.

Now the proud director, with Adrian's support, puts his second commercial masterpiece on the screen. I have to admit that Jane is indeed a commercial director. Although there is no atmosphere like "Tornado", "Life and Death" wins in a carefully structured and compact plot. It shows the fierce confrontation between the police and the gangsters in various limited spaces. Almost There are always attractive places to watch, so that the audience can not look away. He has already brought a surprise in the summer and will also bring a second in Christmas. "——" The Los Angeles Times "

"There are intense and intense fights, there is a great rescue, there is also the love that comes from the same life and death." Life and Death "provides a new type of thriller."-"Empire"

"The new work directed by" Tornado "is also turned to be behind the scenes by Adrian, who has already been awarded the title of producer of gold medals. The frankly speaking, this non-focused movie, empty love, meaningless heroism Although it looks good, when will the director of Miracle return to his profession? "——" Variety "

"Life and Death", which was released in the second week, was unexpectedly welcomed by many people. It was released in the home theater for 3 days and harvested 10,000 US dollars. It not only successfully broke through in the fierce Christmas stalls and occupied the North American box office rankings. The list also recovered almost one-third of the cost.

Although Jan de Bont's "Tornado" and Adrian's sign attracted a lot of attention for the movie, the quality of "Life and Death" is also one of the reasons. A good film review is the best proof.

However, almost every film review, whether praised or criticized, must mention Adrian who is the producer-even if it is just a name. Although he did not produce three movies with different styles and high quality in one year, as he did in 1992, he has caused countless controversy and attention, but the few films released in the summer vacation have his name in the producer's column. Still brought a lot of eyes, in a sense Adrian has become a phenomenon.

"It's a screenwriter, a director, and a production ... Okay, there's no such person, but if you make five or six movies a year, each one can earn a high box office-even if it's in the name, each one Movies have something to do with him more or less. The script is from his idea, or the director or actor is appointed by him ... Does he want to unemploy other directors and producers in Hollywood? " Go to jail.

In this case, the media would praise him for criticizing him, but he would never ignore him. It was only when they reported so much that the protagonist was lying weakly on the bed at the moment.

"Ah, hell, how could the nose ... Ah" Adrian, wearing pajamas leaning on the bedside, sneezed a few times, took a paper towel, and looked depressed at Blanche sitting on the bed smirking. special.

"I never thought that my nose would be so itchy ..." Adrian said in a sigh of breath.

"That's great, there are things you never expected." Blanchett smiled, cut the red apple in his hand into neat four petals, and put it on a plate and passed it to Adrian.

"Thank you." Adrian just sighed, his nose was itching again, and he almost sneezed again, but fortunately he reached out and squeezed it. That's it. A few muffled sounds came from his throat, which made Blanchett chuckle a few times.

"Don't be so gloating, Kate?" Adrian gave her a helpless glance and chose the petal apple to eat.

"Where am I gloating?" Blanchet smiled and placed his elbows on the edge of the bed, looking at him with his head in his head. "I'm quite guilty now. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have a cold, would you?" "

Adrian sighed again, and then sneezed as he turned his head off. He never thought of it, but it was blowing a cold wind outside the theater, and he caught a cold the next day. You must know that his body has always been bang. Not only has he not been sick in the past few years, his memory is in the year There were no major illnesses before.

In fact, it ’s okay to get a cold. It ’s also good for the body. It can better activate the immune system. Only next week ’s “Gump of Forrest Gump” will be released. He ca n’t sneeze and red eyes. Participate?

Therefore, even with some big problems, Adrian chose bed rest on the advice of a private doctor in order to recuperate as soon as possible. Also because he was afraid of infecting Kate with a cold, he did not live in Kate's villa, and the women called to think about him and he was rejected. Of course, there is another reason, if they appear together in the villa, it will be very troublesome. Although they know something well, they often look at the flowers in the mist, and picking too bright is not good.

However, although Blanchett was also rejected by him on the phone, he came to the villa to see her for the first time. Although he had some other thoughts, Adrian did because she had a cold.

"Don't worry, you'll get better soon." After a few teases, Blanchett came over and kissed his cheek.

"Beware of being infected." Adrian reminded him, though it was very useful.

"It won't be so contagious." Blanchett shrugged, not minding.

"By the way, Kate, maybe you can consider settling in Los Angeles now," Adrian said suddenly, then lifted up the newspaper and shook his head. "Did you see that? They praise you unanimously."

"Is that so?" Blanchett's eyes fluttered and he asked indifferently.

"... Kate Blanchett from Australia starred in the role of Anne. It is said that it was recommended by Adrian himself. Here, I have to praise the vision of Director Miracle. This 25-year-old young actress grasped the role brilliantly. Weakness and strength, together with Keanu Reeves, added a lot of beautiful colors to the whole film. Although the mind was fainted by the gangsters at the end of the film, as always, it was the problem of the screenwriter, not her "" Adrian stopped here, thinking of Blanchett with a smile.

"Thanks for their compliments, I can do better." Blanchett said absently in response to the reporter's tone.

"Kate?" Adrian looked at her with a serious look.

After a few seconds of silence, Blanchett sighed: "Do you just think I'm at the Hollywood show, Ed?"

"Of course, you're excellent, Kate, that's proof," Adrian held up the newspaper and shook it. "Remember what I said to you at the Sydney Opera House? I can't think of anything you refuse Reasons. "

With his arms folded on his chin, Blanchett's eyes flickered as he looked at him.

"There are more opportunities here than Australia, and the range of choices will be greater. You will be fully swayed here." Adrian Xunxunshan said, while biting a certain word without revealing it. .

Sure enough, Blanchett, aware of something, his eyes lit up.

"I will seriously consider it, Ed." She said so, even if the answer was not clear, the meaning was already clear.

"Well, can I invite you to accompany me at the screening of" Forrest Gump "next week, Kate?"

"Honored."

The screening of "Forrest Gump" was arranged in the famous Chinese theater in Hollywood. Frankly speaking, this theater is more like a Thai style-except for the two stone lions at the door-but considering the completion time is the age, Grauman has never been to China, and his Chinese-born friend was born in Seattle, so it's not surprising to do that.

Because of the good publicity and the signature of Director Miracle's new work, the movie not only attracted a lot of media attention, but also came on the screen. Well-known movie stars, directors, producers and executives of major film companies abound, so gathered together, in addition to the large investment works of large companies, can also be seen here in Adrian.

"It's not fair to say that. You know I did it on purpose. It has nothing to do with listening to the words" I will associate with mildly mentally handicapped patients. "I can sue you, Ed, and I can sue you for slander." Tom Han Alex said half-truly, pointing at Adrian.

"I didn't say that. I just said that when you heard your voice, you would think of A-Gump. Even if you slander, you should defame A-Gump, right, Tommy." Adrian showed an innocent appearance, and suddenly Let the two ladies around laugh out.

"But Tommy's voice is really good, otherwise John wouldn't want to ask you to voice Hudi, which fits the image of the character quite well." He then said again.

Hanks shook his head helplessly, and had to take the initiative to change the subject: "That's a good animated movie."

"Indeed, I bet they would like Elizabeth, especially his father's voice." Adrian did not bother about the previous topic, and followed Hanks.

After two more remarks, after his wife Rita Wilson hinted, Hanks left immediately: "Then talk later, Ed, Rita and I have something else."

"Come on, leave me alone." Adrian nodded, then saw Hanks glance at the girl next to him, and showed him some meaningful eyes.

No wonder, the most intimate woman that Hanks has seen most with Adrian is Julia. Although I have heard of Adrian's **** name, he still subconsciously thinks she is his real girlfriend. Although Hanks did not pass by when he was young, and he was married twice, he was still very disciplined after identifying his formal girlfriend. So as a friend, he thought he should remind Adrian a little better.

After giving a "I know the size, thank you" look, Adrian watched Hanks leave with his wife, and then turned his attention to the pleasant person around him. The golden, tall and tall disks are behind my head, the gray-green eyes are shining, the white goose neck is exposed outside without reservation, a black sleeveless maxi dress, and an exclamation mark in the chest. Although there is no ditch squeezed out, the light inside is still u, with a sense of elegance and elegance.

Unfortunately, she is not Blanchett, which is really bad luck. Blanchett did not do too much intimacy when visiting Adrian in the villa. At most, he kissed his cheek. It started to have a low fever, and was weak in bed for a day, worse than Adrian's condition.

You know, Charlize, a secretary assistant and a half-nanny and half-housekeeper, has contacted Adrian more often than she hasn't seen her in bed. Blanchet ’s luck is really bad. Already.

In this case, she would not be able to participate in the weekend's "Forrest Gump" screening in the hotel, so Adrian had to find another person. Now standing next to him is Gwen, who has the same temperament as Blanchett Nice.

"Let's go over there," Adrian said after chatting with a few people he knew.

"Okay." Gwennis said with a smile, her arms tightened even more, she would take the chance.

Women's minds are always difficult to guess. They always seem to be in a contradiction. This is true of Kate, so is Charlize, and so is Blanchett. Even Adrian, who has been running smoothly, is afraid to say that he knows them well. But, as long as you grasp the most basic things, you won't worry about anything, like Gwenis now around.

"Ha, you are here, Ed. No wonder I haven't seen it everywhere." As Adrian and Gwennis sat in the barren place of the bar, a familiar voice got into their ears.

"Hi, Steven, I'm so sorry, I didn't see you, I hope you won't get angry with this" Adrian smiled and shook hands with each other, Gwennis hugs him in surprise: "I'm glad to see you, Godfather."

No one except Steven Spielberg can call her that. As the Big Three of the DreamWorks, David Geffen, Jeffrey Kasenberg and Adrian have no love. Naturally Spielberg came to the screening.

"How can I be angry, I know why you can't see me." Spielberg joked, and then looked at his goddaughter with admiration, and Gwenness flinched back to Adrian. It seems a little shy.

"Can you get us two glasses of champagne, dear?" Adrian said, comfortingly patting her.

"No problem." Gwennis, who knew they had something to say, nodded and turned to the other side of the bar.

After watching her go far, Spielberg looked back, and watched Adrian sigh: "Be nice to her, Ed. I know that young people always like to come by their own ideas, they always have to prove themselves I can't stop it, but ... Gwinny is still naive and simple sometimes. She is a good girl. "

"I know, Steven," Adrian nodded, trying to make himself look as sincere as possible, "Gweni is really beautiful, and has an unparalleled temperament of many actresses. I like her very much. She has several suitable roles in place, and I believe she will definitely have her own unique position in Hollywood. "

Spielberg didn't speak, and sighed after seeing Adrian for a long while: "Frankly, I suddenly had an illusion in front of you. I think I'm very old, and Hollywood is already young as you The human world. "

"How is it possible," Adrian laughed. "You are under the age, far from being old, Steven. You still have enough time to embed your name in film history in this world. "

He knew why the other side was so sighed. Just three years ago, he was just a new director, and he had to respectfully invite Spielberg to make a movie in the office. However, three years later, he is already on a par with himself and even the top executives of major movie companies. If it is not for a movie company that can stand alongside the seven major movie companies, and if the show is too fast and requires a solid foundation, he may Let the other person look up.

Spielberg met more talented and capable young people in Hollywood, but as talented and capable as Adrian, there is also a vision that can turn a stone into gold, and grab a huge power in a short time There is only one such young man. Not only are there no ancients before, but no one has come after, and it is no wonder that there are so many people who like him so much.

"What are you talking about?" Gwenness, who was carrying three glasses of champagne, walked back.

"Nothing, something from a movie," Adrian replied.

"I was just asking Ed if there were any good script recommendations," Spielberg said.

"You didn't say this just now ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Adrian looked at him with surprise.

"Of course, if I say this, I know you will be kicked away by people entangled by people from Fox, Warner, and Universal." Spielberg joked again.

Adrian shrugged. This is because, because of these films this year, many producers want to benefit from him. Among them, Fox, Warner, and Universal who have cooperated are the best. Be entangled by them.

"Ed must have a good script, and his head is filled with endless ideas." Gwennis immediately held his arm and said affectionately, shaking her arm slightly in a subtle way.

Adrian gave her a grin, and then squeezed his chin: "Well, give me a few minutes to think."

Although DreamWorks is so powerful, as a blank piece of paper, there is basically nothing to win, so Spielberg hopes that his ace screenwriter, miracle director and gold producer can help.

Adrian has no reason not to help. Since DreamWorks is the shield of his choice, the longer it stands, the better. Besides, he still has shares in it, but which one is better ...
