King of Hollywood

v3 Chapter 294: Keep me in mind

PS: modified

Adrian shouldn't have come to the premiere of World War. The movie's actor is Tom Cruise, even if he was back in the hotel in Cannes and Nicole hand in hand more than half a month ago. Things, and his subsequent statements to European filmmakers diverted most of the attention, but there were always people staring at this.

After all, the affair between him and Nicole and Cruz was very uproarous. Rumors about Adrian's affiliation with Nicole due to directing "Open Eyes Ring" have never been broken, and it has been circulating on the Internet from now on . If at this time he appeared on the red carpet of the premiere of the movie starring Cruise, and even met with Cruise, it would inevitably make a big wave in the media, and the cool down scandal will return. Public attention, this is definitely not a good thing.

Of course, with Tom Cruise's attitude toward Adrian, if he meets on the red carpet, it must be watering his head. There are only two situations that can allow him to do this, either to show his favor to Adrian, to use the current high-profile state to get some positive attention, or to use this method to block Adrian and Nicole. Of course, with the character and wisdom of Cruise, the former can't be used when he thinks about it, and the latter ... it's unexpected.

So Adrian's come to the premiere of "World War" is very low-key. His main purpose is to test the reaction of the Jews in Hollywood to "The Pianist" through Spielberg. Although it is more convenient to pass Weinstein, you don't need to be so anxious. But Spielberg, who has directed "Schindler's List," is undoubtedly the best fit, and the sooner he prepares, the better. After all, he has another goal. He doesn't appear on the red carpet anyway. .

In fact, this goal was basically achieved. Even though the two of them were a little vague, the meaning was still clear, and Adrian took the opportunity to say that he was influenced by Spielberg to make "Pianist." This is important. To achieve your goals, it is necessary to obtain the support of the Jewish group. In any case, Jewish funds here in Hollywood account for a lot.

In a sense, he is a game among several parties, so as long as it is good, it should be won. Of course, the degree must be well grasped, as long as it can be controlled properly. This wire is still very stable.

To be honest, Adrian didn't really want to direct "Pianist" himself. Although he made people go to Spearman and re-issue "Dead City", but that was just a sale and wanted Sell ​​personalities to Polanski or the Jews. So when Polanski approached someone to buy the right to adapt, Adrian almost agreed, but then he thought about it carefully and pushed his plan to a higher level. Including it in the list, we have the current situation.

Well. That's it for now, we can start that movie. After talking to Spielberg, and greeting several acquaintances, Adrian was about to leave. He originally came here secretly. Not many people instructed. Naturally, there was no need to go to the screening room to watch the show of World War. Cruz certainly didn't like to see him before the movie started or ended.

but. When he was about to leave from the side door, a little girl's voice called him: "Mr. Cowell."

"Hannah?" Looking back, he saw Dakota Fanning catching up pantingly.

"I'm so sorry ... Mr. Cowell." The little girl who stopped gasping and gave a smile, "I hope I didn't disturb you."

"Oh, of course not. I'm just about to leave. Besides, just call me Adrian or Ed." Adrian looked at her with curiosity. "Is there anything I need to do?"

"No, it's fine," Dakota quickly explained. "I just want to ... thank you."

"Thank you?" Adrian raised an eyebrow.

"Yes," the little girl nodded, and a cute, shy smile came out. "I know that you have been taking care of me and recommended me a lot of outstanding characters. I am very grateful, very grateful, so ... … So I always wanted to thank you face to face, Cowell ... Ed. I wanted to find a chance in the future, but just now I heard Mr. Spielberg said you were here, but I did n’t hold back ... So I looked for it Come here ... I didn't see you, so I guess you definitely don't want too many people to know, so I found it here, I didn't ... intentionally disturb you ... "

She was stuttering, her face was red, her eyes moved around, and she seemed shy and afraid to look at him, which made her look very cute.

Adrian raised his eyebrows subtlely, then put on a mild smile: "It's nothing, you are a girl with great potential, and I recommend you, too. Don't come here to thank me."

"No," the little girl's tone became firm. "Maybe Ed doesn't think it's not necessary, but I know that without Ed's guidance, I wouldn't get such an honor so easily today ..."

She said, as if raising her chest with courage, looking at him with wide blue eyes: "Can you guide me more in the future?"

Raising her eyebrows again subtlely, Adrian suddenly leaned down, reached in front of her, and reached out and rubbed her blonde hair: "Of course, I said, you are a girl with great potential."

"Thank you." Dakota smiled brightly, tipped his toes and pecked at him with a thunderbolt, then ran away quickly.

Another goblin, huh? Adrian, who watched her back slowly rise up, snorted softly in her heart. No, not only, but she was a little smaller than the goblin at that time. Alas, who can escape the temptation of Vanity Fair? Especially precocious girls, is it lucky or unfortunate to have such precocious children?

The question was then left behind, and no matter what hints Dakota had, she was too young now. Therefore, even the current waves have not subsided. The two sides of the Atlantic are still arguing. Adrian is still being watched by many people, and the pianist's momentum has continued. He quickly invested in the filming of the new film "Out of Control".

"This is a very simple lens, you just need to walk from here to there, no extra body language is needed. But it is also a complex lens. The focus of the lens will be on your face, you need to at least Express more than two kinds of feelings. "Adrian told Natalie this way in the huge studio.

"Nothing specified?" Natalie said, pursing her lips.

"No," Adrian nodded. "It's up to you how you feel. Although you can do it in a montage later, I still hope it can be done by you."

Having said that, he started to greet the lighting engineer and props division to prepare for the shooting after everyone was in place.

There are not many scenes in Out of Control. The main thing is at home and in the company, and then there are a small number of outdoor shows, so 80% of the content can be completed in the studio. As for the remaining 20%. There are too many suitable locations outside the studio, even if it is not suitable, as long as Adrian is willing to invest, the curtains are drawn around, and the background is moved during post-production.

So even though the movie is now attracting attention because of the hot schedule, Adrian is always completely in front of the scene because of Cannes, but it is still very easy to isolate people's attention to the new work, easier than "Pianist"- At least until "Pianist" is fully released, news like Director Marvel's new movie is best kept secret.

of course. The reason for this is mainly due to the simple storyline of the script. This script can be regarded as Adrian's semi-original work. It mainly describes a deformed family. Single mothers have grown up by raising their daughters independently, so they have a perverted control over her.

Because her daughter has grown up, everything in her life has been taken care of by her mother, so she can only accept it passively. There is no own opinion. This situation changed after the daughter's company transferred a new supervisor. The new supervisor was a playboy. Somehow the relatively rustic daughter entered his eyes, so the supervisor tried to hook her up.

The daughter who has no opinion is totally unaware of what to do about this kind of thing, but the company has to promote a group of people at this time. She was fortunate to be among them, so she had to deal with her supervisor as a last resort, and her daughter's only friend was there to advise her. Everything was pretty good at first, although she needed to be hypocritical with the supervisor, but her daughter ’s long-closed palpitations slowly began to unravel, until one day she accidentally saw her only friend and supervisor talk intimately, and doubt began to gradually Breeding in her heart, she slowly began to wonder.

In addition, the mother at home still takes care of her severely, and has hardly ever heard what she said, just asking her to follow her instructions, asking for promotion, and the contradiction between mother and daughter has begun to become sharp.

All these are intertwined, they are already very sensitive, and their sense of security is seriously inadequate, but the daughter who is usually suppressed by the mother begins to become a little nervous. Especially when she found that the only friend was also on the list of possible promotion, this neuroticism became more intense. Later, under various tortures, she began to hallucinate, as if someone was hurting her, and her orderly life was completely chaotic. Finally, it finally broke out, everything went out of control and everyone was hurt.

The plot is a little familiar, right? And a ballet movie. In fact, Adrian did draw on something from that ballet movie when he wrote the script, but he borrowed more from other films. Aside from those expressions, similar plots abound in American movies. For example, this kind of mother strictly controls her daughter, and her daughter resists because of a series of things, and finally causes the catastrophe bridge. It can be traced back to the "70s" Witch Carrie.

The key lies in the way of expression, such as the superpowers in "Witch Carrie", such as ballet in ballet movies. As long as the way of expression can resonate with the audience, the plot of dog blood will only be icing on the cake, just like using ballet to express the mood change of the heroine, it is indeed very new.

However, Adrian has thrown this away without even thinking about it. He said a long time ago that in dance films, ballet is the easiest to shoot, or the protagonist is the easiest to get the protagonist to play in person of. As long as ordinary dances are connected for a certain period of time, actors can basically dance like a decent figure. Then edit it later and the effect comes out.

But ballet is different. Ballet has high requirements on the body, so most ballet actors have trained since childhood, and those who are not qualified are eliminated early. Coupled with those ingenious techniques, delicate movements showing various tensions are required. Neither is an inexperienced actor who can make up for by half a year or even a year of training.

Of course, there are montages, excellent post-editing can always get the desired effect, people can't tell whether the actor or the stand-in is jumping in front of the camera, especially the CG technology is now a thousand miles away. Back in the Gladiator. The head-changing technology has already been used, not to mention now.

But the problem comes again. Although this is convenient, don't forget what Adrian did to do it! Generally speaking, like this kind of dance movie, unless the protagonist can perform 80% to 90% of the action in person, the college will not consider it. That's why Audrey Hepburn was. Because most of the singing and dancing in "Lady Ladies" were made as stand-ins, I didn't even get a nomination in the end.

Adrian may use a variety of methods, such as taking more shots of her own dance, and then claim that most of the shots are hers. She can also allow the entire crew to testify for her, and it may be successful at other times. Sex is very high. However, this is not the normal time. Hollywood doesn't know how many eyes are staring at Adrian. Once caught by the other party, it may affect the whole plan. Even if he has a backhand.

It can't affect the bottom line of the plan. Besides, the more we are in this situation, the more we have to be upright and honest, and we can't tell the truth, although in the light of his final plan for Natalie, the previous method seems more in line with interests.

Adrian also believes. With her current ability to control, it is definitely not difficult to direct such a movie. All that is needed is to show Natalie's acting skills. The entire movie serves this point. In fact, the script is set. The expression of these dog blood plots is acting!

That's why Adrian had repeatedly emphasized acting before, and wanted Natalie to break through himself, so earlier he took her to meet the teenagers who had been troubled by the same problem, hoping to inspire her.

But this was still a difficult shooting. The first shot was not completed for a whole day, and everyone looked exhausted at the end of work. Doing the same thing over and over again dozens of times, even people made of steel will inevitably feel tired.

"Tomorrow we continue." Adrian said with a frown, then sat down in the director's chair with his eyes closed for a few minutes, then got up and walked to Natalie and whispered a few words to her, then returned to himself The office here.

Because the media bought Universal Studios, Universal Studios naturally became its property, so he set up his office at the foot of the mountain, away from the famous office such as No. 5171, located on the tour line of the Studio City, so as not to be caught by the world. Disturbed by tourists everywhere.

"Come in." Adrian shouted after hearing the knock on the door.

Natalie, who had already packed up, walked in and silently did it in front of her desk.

"Do you know where your problem is?" Adrian opened her eyes and asked her.

"Too much emotion to try?" Natalie tentatively asked.

"Of course not," Adrian waved sharply. "What are you worrying about? What are you hesitating? I can obviously feel that you have made it a few times, a few times a little bit, and you can perfectly achieve the desired effect , But every time you reach the last point, you always choose to flinch. "

He stood up, supported his hands on the table, leaned forward and looked at her severely: "Tell me, Nay, what are you hesitating about ?!"

"... Nothing." Natalie said this with her lips pursed for a moment.

"Nothing?" Adrian sneered. "Worried about failure? Worried that I won't let you go? Worried about being exposed? Worried about falling from the cloud?"

Natalie put her head aside without saying a word, and saw that her ears became red because of shame and anger, and these words were all right. Adrian didn't speak anymore, just looked at her coldly, and after a long time came out from behind his desk and went straight to the door to lock it.

Realizing what he wanted to do, Natalie got up in a hurry ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ before Adrian grabbed his wrist and turned it over, then pressed it on the desk.

"You hurt me." Natalie exclaimed.

But Adrian had no intention of showing pity for her, and stretched out her hands to unfasten her belt, then tore off her trousers.

"Stop, stop! Otherwise I will ..." Natalie exclaimed indignantly, but the answer was a strong tingling, just like stuffing the sausage into two slices of bread without the jam, letting her Could not help but screamed.

"Remember! Did I say anything to you! She is angry! She is unwilling! She wants to get out of her control! She wants to decide her own life! But! She is confused! She is afraid! She is hesitant! Because She never tried it! She didn't have the courage to try it! She seemed strong but actually fragile! She seemed smart and actually stupid! She thought she got rid of everything! Actually nothing was obtained! Yes! That's right! That's how you feel now! It ’s your body ’s response! That ’s it! Remember it for me! Did you hear it, Natalie! Remember it for me! If you ca n’t do it, I will do it once a day! Understand! ”

The man's roar echoed in the room, accompanied by the whimper of the girl.
