King of Hollywood Chapter 127: Preparation work


The cheerful music reverberates in the room. Although the little figure wriggling with the rhythm is a bit clumsy, the small round face is full of smiles, and it is very happy and happy. Of course, it would be even better if she could put on the dress she saw on the first day. It must be as beautiful as a doll. The short-sleeved t-shirts and fat shorts she wears now only make the clumsy little girl stand out. ——But it's also more cute.

Adrian sat on the chair with a smile and looked at the jumping Emma, ​​while slapping the music while waiting for the little girl to jump in front of her, holding her hand to let her turn a few times, and let her enjoy the fun. appearance. Probably I think this is very interesting. Emma jumped on the swing two or three times and came to Adrian to turn around. As a result, because of too many revolutions, the body almost fell to the ground after another turn. Fortunately, Adrian timely Hug her.

"Be careful, little guy, it's not good if you fall on the ground." Adrian rubbed her head with some doting.

Although it was dazed because of too many turns, Emma giggled and grabbed his collar. Naughty tricks are a must-have skill for every child. Anyway, she can't stop it. Adrian has no choice but to play with her.

"Ed, let's dance, okay." Emma cried with a milky voice, pulling his collar milk, listening to her ears very comfortably, her eyes wide open, people could not bear to refuse.

"That won't work, my waist will be uncomfortable." Adrian squeezed her little nose. She had skipped the little girl once before, because she was worried that she might fall, so she had to follow her carefully The rhythm rotates, and you have to bend over for a long time. This taste is enough again. Besides, he has other things to say.

"Okay, 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 her eyes and looked at him for unknown reasons.

"This...I might be going back..." He said hesitantly. 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, no," the little girl's head shook like a rattle, not only staring at him fiercely, but if he dared to continue, he would always Ignore what he meant.

Adrian couldn't help but smile, he knew it would happen. Okay, he doesn’t mind spending a few days with the little girl. After all, he promised her when he left the New Year, and he would come back at most after 3 months. Although it was dragged to the end of May because of irresistible factors, it was I missed myself first.

It's just that he has a reason to go back now, "Pulp Fiction" is about to premiere is one thing, preparation for "Howard Manor" is the second thing. It's easy to let Emma Thompson promise to star in the heroine, and let La Verne send someone to sign the contract with the other party. After the official confirmation, of course, it is necessary to sign Anthony Hopkins while the iron is hot. Adrian is a kiss. Telling Thompson that he will do his best to invite Hopkins to play the leading role-this probably also strengthens her confidence to play the leading role.

As early as the celebration party of "The Silence of the Lambs" at the Oscar Night, Adrian had already mentioned this movie with Hopkins. At that time, Hopkins neither refused nor agreed. Now that he has successfully obtained the Golden Palm, coupled with the invitation of Emma Thompson, the possibility of persuading him to gamble is still very high.

But Adrian has to be fast. If Hopkins’s schedule is not wrong, it will be very difficult to handle. After all, he is a new film actor, and there are definitely a lot of producers looking for him.

"Okay, Emma, ​​listen to me, okay?" After the little girl had enough trouble, Adrian continued to coax up again. Although Emma wanted to continue, her strength was already exhausted. , Can only be angrily turned her head to ignore her.

"You have to understand, dear, everyone has their own things to be busy with," Adrian doesn't matter so much, and he said, "I also want to accompany you here more, but there are I don’t want to do what I want, do you understand? Well, I’m here to guarantee that I will be back in at most two to three weeks, and then I will be here to accompany you for up to two to three months, that would be For a long, long time."

"Deceptive" Emma said with a grunt, but hesitant to turn to look at the look of Adrian.

Adrian chuckled and put her whole person in her arms, touching her hair and continued: "I know I missed the appointment this time, but the previous promises were fulfilled, don't you forget ."

He said he was stunned for a while, and sighed in the heart following the funny one. Will the child reason with you? Adrian immediately grabbed the little girl's face and looked at her bright eyes and said seriously: "In short, I promise, I will do it this time."

Emma muttered her mouth. Although she still had a reluctant look, she nodded: "I see."

Finally, I got the little girl, Adrian laughed immediately, and then kissed on the pink face. But he didn't see Emma struggling to leave Emma's arms, and waved his little fist very secretly, his eyes whirling dimly, not knowing what the **** he was doing.

The next day, Adrian took a plane back to Los Angeles, which was equivalent to announcing the end of his vacation in disguise, and then plunged into work. In fact, there is not much work to be busy, most of them just make decisions, and then leave it to others. It's just that, although most things are just a matter of asking, it's pretty tiring if you have more.

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

In addition, Adrian has set a new record to become the youngest Golden Palm or the other, but this movie is a cult-style work full of violence and black humor, and the previous film about his literary plot The movie was refrigerated and caused a lot of controversy, so "Pulp Fiction" appeared on the front page of the media for a long time.

But any hot spot can only last for a while, and Adrian, who is the soul of this movie, disappeared after the closing of the Cannes Film Festival, or went to deal with personal affairs, and the media wanted to interview him to find Not many people, so they had to turn over some lace and gossip, such as "John Travolta's Turnover", "Wizard's Italian Muse" and other news. So now, because of Cannes, the fever has begun to exhaust, so Lavern took the opportunity to hold the premiere at this time.

All the premieres are no different. It’s nothing more than to ask the reporter to take a few photos to answer a few questions, and then communicate with the guests who came to the premiere, and continue at the press conference after the screening. Answer question.

For Adrian, who has already participated in the premiere and has gone through the red carpet several times, the first and third items are really unattractive. Besides, stars are the main targets of journalists. Although Adrian now has the name of a wizard director, and it is compelling and newsworthy, it is not the same as a star.

So, his main energy is still on the middle one, and sometimes he will encounter surprises at the premiere.

"I've seen the movie you mentioned, it's really interesting, but the French obviously ruined the idea, and the plot handling was lengthy and not focused." James Cameron's eloquent peace Adrian said that because the distribution company of "Pulp Fiction" was 20th Century Fox, he was also invited to participate in the premiere.

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

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

"How come," Adrian laughed, "That's the deal, I'll let someone sign the contract with you tomorrow, and then strive to get the screenwriters out of the script within half a month."

After he paused, he said again: "However, in view of your continuous performance, I think it is necessary to invest in a film company. Do you think it is suitable for Fox or Paramount? Or something else Company?"

"Why~IndoMTL.com~ Am I so sloppy in your eyes?" Cameron spread his hands in annoyance.

"Yes, that's it, and I bet that the investment in this movie will reach 100 million US dollars, you will definitely find the military to rent a Harrier fighter directly," Adrian said bluntly, "even if The budget given is less than 100 million, and sooner or later you will be asked to add so much. And, I believe, no matter how much money you give, you will spend all on this movie."

"It's a surprise, you know me this way." Cameron also laughed, a little self-deprecating and a little proud, and then he waved his hand: "So, let me wait for your good news."

As he walked away, Adrian could not help but chuckled. The cost and box office of these blockbusters were clearly remembered in the previous life. Although "True Lies" has searched 400 million box offices worldwide, it is 1% of the cost. For a hundred million dollars, the film company actually didn't make much, so he wanted to pull other film companies together. One is to reduce the risk, the other is to pull the relationship, and eat single food also scores. For example, the movie after Cameron must be won separately anyway.

Just as Adrian was thinking, an ambiguous and familiar voice came into his ears: "Do you think of any good ideas, Ed?" ()
