King of Hollywood

v3 Chapter 310: Approaching

"Every Thanksgiving I think about how to make arrangements to figure out something new. This is not an easy task, especially with more and more family members. However, in general, the past few years Thanksgiving is very good, so I'm still quite qualified, right? "Just as Adrian chattered, a sharp razor hit his throat.

"Shut up, Ed, if you sting again, I will swipe across." Kate said underneath him fiercely.

Adrian lost his voice immediately and raised his hands to agree, and then Kate, who was kneeling in front of him, flinched, and carefully shaved the white foam from his chin again.

"It's refreshing, your technique is still so good, Kate," Adrian, after shaving, rubbing his chin in the mirror, "but ... I don't think it's necessary to keep this old-fashioned razor. Well, of course, I'm not saying that you need to change the electric, but it may be a good idea to use a short handle. "

"Come on, Ed, you know I won't actually cut it," said Kate, who was washing the razor next to him, "though sometimes I do have such thoughts."

"Okay, then should I thank Princess Anna or Goddess Selena and Miss Crawford for not killing?" Adrian hugs Kate from behind with a smile, with a shaved chin on her neck Hesitated.

Kate rolled her eyes and turned to grab his collar: "Did you know, Ed, I can just sue you for sexual harassment with your actions."

"Oh?" Adrian opened his eyes wide. "Are you sure? You know ..."

"But we are not married," Kate sneered. "In order to play Josie, I not only read her experience repeatedly, but also learned in detail the relevant legal provisions on sexual harassment. In addition, the current definition of sexual harassment is more than the original More details. "

"Okay, okay." Adrian had to raise his hands again and cooperate. Satisfying her little superiority is nothing.

"Come on, if it's too long, they will think I'm stealing." Kate grinds his teeth and walks out immediately, but stops and turns back after a few steps, holding out Adrian's face carefully Take a look.

"I think you can try to save your hair, maybe it will make you more sexy." She said.

Capped his chin. Adrian nodded. "It can be considered."

Coming downstairs, there was a lively scene in the living room. Lily was running around with Deva and Juliet. Eleanor followed, not knowing what he was holding and waving and giggling, but he was smaller than 1 The aged Mary sits on the ground with her mouth pouting, and no one cares about it. Patricia and Aibo are crying each other, Evelyn is sleeping soundly, even in this environment, Kellys No, maybe my mother took it away to feed her.

And the respective mothers. Better ones like Sophie, Monica, or Blanchett, just chat. The little guys took care of the babysitter and the maid, and only needed them to catch them and say a few words. The worse is like Jessica, Julia and Gwyneth, who had to spend time to coax their children. . Not only that, but accidents happen from time to time, such as when something is knocked down and something is broken. A little guy wrestled, a little guy hit someone, and so on. If there weren't a lot of babysitters, and the maids were there, the house would be chaotic.

Even so, it is not easy to relax. The children are here, the mothers are not coming, and Charlize, Sarah, Ivanka, and Yuki Hui live here, so ... anyway, even if Whoever gets the first slice of Ed's cut turkey may cause a silent confrontation, especially Nicole and Naomi who have a big belly this year.

This is the Kewell ’s Thanksgiving. It ’s noisy, endless, and it ’s going to happen again at Christmas. Sometimes it ’s really asking for trouble, but Adrian never canceled it. idea.

"I don't deny it, but this is family life, do you understand?" Adrian said, touching Lily's head, who had already gone to bed.

"But you and your mother are not married, nor are you married to your aunts." Lily grimaced. "So those guys in school often use this joke to me."

"Oh?" Adrian raised an eyebrow. "Who is joking at you?"

"Don't worry," Lili waved indifferently. "Since I punched a guy, this kind of remark is gone. Of course, I promise that even if the teacher knew it, he would only stand by me. Over here. "

"Well, it is indeed my daughter, but now, there is only one thing you have to do now, and that is to sleep!" Took a pinch on her daughter's face, then covered her with a quilt and turned off the bedside lamp. He kissed her forehead and said good night again before leaving the bedroom.

That's right, family life, that's why Adrian takes the risk of having a mother-to-woman party every month, and pulling them all together on important holidays. However, even family life can't stop some things, it can even be said to contribute to the situation.

"Your request is ready." After coming out of Lily's bedroom, Yuji Hui, who had been waiting outside, bowed.

"Very well," Adrian nodded, "I'll be there when the little ones are all asleep."

Then he thought about what looked at Yu Jihui, smiled and let her make a few laps in front of herself, and finally slap: "I changed my mind, Yu Jihui, relatively speaking, 2d animation is still a bit too misty, So, I need you to play Xia in A, is it okay? Don't tell me that there are no props, don't think I didn't know you bought them. "

"So, is it Xia in love or Xia in prison?" Yu Jihui asked with a soft smile after being surprised.

Adrian didn't speak, but looked at her meaningfully, Yuji Hui waited for a few minutes, and then bowed again: "I know, I'll go and prepare."

She was always so intimate and glamorous, so whenever the women were in a stalemate at the party, Adrian would live with her and play tricks. At this point, the women are also acquiescent. For a time, Yu Jihui has always been a look of low eyebrows and never offended anyone. Second, she is the only Asian here, Adrian and her. Overnight is at least superficially fair.

Regardless of family matters, in 2005 it came to an end, without competition from the media. The major movie companies were relieved and got a lot of box office. This is the case. Even after the movie title "Amazing Marvel" which was released after Thanksgiving was cancelled, it still made a good box office. Liv was once again praised or criticized by film critics as a vase.

"Let's do it, Liv, keep going. The princess job is perfect for you." Someone laughed at it.

Beyond that. There is also a new Disney movie that is barely related to Adrian, which is adapted from the British writer Lewis' "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe". The earliest aiming at this series of novels is Robert Shea of ​​the new line. Although there is no trilogy of "The Lord of the Rings", the new line has been fully improved under the care of Adrian.

But that doesn't satisfy Shay. Which company's head doesn't want to make more and more profitable movies? In particular, seeing that Miramax, who is also a media subsidiary, took huge profits on Pirates of the Caribbean, Shay couldn't sit still. This time he didn't fancy "Golden Compass", this time he fancy The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

However, this kind of thing usually has to say hello, so Adrian came forward and pressed him down. Then recommended it to Dinis and made a small deal.

"It is undeniable that Lewis' series of novels are very good. But it is not suitable for adaptation to support movies-or completely adapted into movies. You have a vision, Robert," The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe "is a good choice, as long as the movie At the usual level of Hollywood, the box office is not a problem. The real problem is that the next one is a little careless. A little deviation will make the next movie fail. This is my judgment. This series is relatively related to each other It's still a little less, "Adrian explained, in the face of anger, but not easy to attack.

Then he gave the other a sweet date: "Well, Robert, I know what you are thinking, I can give you a series. In the next year, the cost is not high, but the return will be amazing, if it works properly."

Shea heard what he said, and nodded after struggling for a few minutes: "I'll follow up."

A series of novels have been formally published in the second half of this year through its publishing company because of Adrian's attention. If the situation is good, it is not a problem to start preparing for the movie next year. Just because the new line needs a series of movies, Adrian also intends to give them one. This series with low investment but good returns is theirs.

However, the pie will not fall in the sky. In order to get a high box office in this dog blood series of movies, in addition to attracting a large number of young people who love fantasy, they also need a lot of commercial operations. Therefore, Adrian must send a representative to follow up in order to remind a few key points, and by the way intervene in the internal affairs of the new line.

After all, although the media bought the new line, Shay still has some equity in the hands, and because the original agreement has been sitting in the position, the new line always has a semi-independent taste. Therefore, even though Shay has always been honest and diligent, the media has not given up the idea of ​​controlling the new line, and this time is a good opportunity.

Shay also understands this. Although he is reluctant, the media has always been fairly disciplined, and he is basically fair in terms of film resources. He has also seen the development in recent years, so he said, "I will follow up. "As long as Adrian doesn't go overboard, he probably opened his eyes and closed his eyes.

The year of 2005 has passed. Although many filmmakers are happy about the lack of media competition, they will soon be unable to laugh, because at the end of December, there were several movies that made a point for Odska. Film, such as Paul Haggis's Sky Tower. The film's technique and editing are very similar to those of "The Crash", which won the best film last year, so that critics who participated in the film scoffed that he had no creative ability, but upgraded the story range from Los Angeles to the whole World, but most people still give good reviews.

"Maybe you have a kind of Haggis when you watch these arrangements are completely forced together, but there is no doubt that they are a portrayal of the helplessness of human beings. The whole film is both depressed and flashy And Dennis Knight and Jennifer Aniston also gave the best performance ever. Haggis deserves another Golden Man. "Some people praised it.

Indeed, shortly after the completion of the Haggis version of Sky Tower, Adrian watched it in a special screening room. Although, as in "Life with a Glass of Wine," the cut-out shot has little to do with the original, Haggis uses his own technique to show the story. The mastery of the plot is also more complete than in "Crash", and the expression of the theme is not lost to the original.

It is worth mentioning that although the plot on the Japanese side has been modified, Ji Hui can play quite well, especially when dancing can't keep up with the rhythm because of deafness, and finally let another woman **** the man she easily hooked up with. The loss and resentment with the tendency to self-destruct was passed on to the audience quite strongly.

Unfortunately this is America. The critics' attention is on the Dennis and Aniston couples. They also perform very well. This feeling is particularly obvious when compared with "Smith and Smith", so Yuhui was ignored. But it doesn't matter, anyway, Adrian's purpose has been achieved, what next ...

Haggis could have been the topic of the last five years. If it wasn't for another movie, it was also screened. Yes, Adrian directed it. Natalie starred in "Out of Control".

The film was not very publicized, and the trailer was released after the middle of December. At this time, everyone was busy preparing for Christmas, and in the "Tiantian Tower", large posters were posted everywhere two months ago. Rao is so, still attracted a lot of attention for the first time. Who made the famous director of Miracle directing and producing this film? At this time, the halo brought by "Pianist" and criticizing European filmmakers continued to shine, not to mention that Natalie Portman was the starring actress of the new film.

"This is an indescribable, atypical miracle director's work. It is not without Adrian's completely female-oriented film. In" The Devil's Head ", which was sealed by Gwyneth, he has already Tried it-frankly, I have always considered this to be one of the worst works by the director of Marvel. But it is the first time to use a single heroine in a horror suspense. It is no surprise that Adrian continues him Precise grasp of the plot and the lens, except for a slight delay in the opening ten minutes and thirty to forty minutes, is basically compact, without too many gorgeous shots. The suspense was revealed at the last moment, making people sigh.

Natalie's performance was also surprisingly exciting. She couldn't see her passionate passion as Joan Carter. She was just a poor girl who was hurt and sunk in her chaotic inner world. She is so devoted, almost integrated with the role, and deserves everyone's applause. Maybe she can achieve higher achievements. "

-"The New York Times" Richard Hanson

Praise is indispensable. Despite being a semi-original script, Adrian, after all, has accumulated countless experiences, and has long been conceived, so he maintains an average level overall. And Natalie is almost a portrayal of her because of most of the character's characteristics. In addition, Adrian's training in shooting has played a standard of 150%. It is strange that there is no praise.

However, although some critics who have seen it give positive reviews, more people focus on the other side, not those guys who scream "you can guess the ending when you see the beginning", their eyes are on The heroine.

"Unsurprisingly, Adrian will always launch another movie at the end of the year, and at least one actress has a wonderful performance in it."

"Natalie's performance was really exciting, and Adrian once again gave her extraordinary strength."

"This is the third time Natalie Portman has worked with Adrian, and it is also a minority among Miracle Girls."

Ridiculous, jealous, envious, jealous, gritted teeth and so on, directed by Miracle Director, the wonderful performance of the heroine, plus the records of these years, it is enough to show what Adrian is thinking ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ This is ridiculous !! Who does he think he is? Does he really think that the film school listens to him alone? !! Many people think in their hearts either anger or hate or envy.

But thinking about it, but when it comes to reality, I can't help but feel discouraged. Similar things have been done more than once or twice. Every time it seems that he can't succeed, but every time he laughs to the end. Not to mention, let's see what the theme of "Pianist" he launched in Cannes this year is, how many years after the victory of World War II this year, and how he has shaped his image after that, maybe the chance is less than 100%, but this situation What is the difference between 100% and 100%?

However, Adrian did not have much pride in this. He was sufficiently confident about the results of The Pianist, but for another, there was still some work to do to get it done.

But he is not in a hurry. Anyway, "Out of Control" has not been officially released yet, so after explaining the matter, he spent the New Year leisurely and took his daughters to visit his uncle in New York as usual. Of course, reprimand is also indispensable, and the daughters seem to like to see their father being reprimanded. The uncle also seems to be aware of this. After the initial comments on the matter, he began to take accent. At this time, Lily A group of little guys gathered around and watched Dad cope with a smile.

Always upholding his uncle, at this time he said nothing and even smiled at him: "It's nothing, Ed, you know, your uncle loves you."

"Yes, I know." At this time, Adrian could only try to squeeze a smile.
