King of Hollywood Chapter 148: A new movie? !
"Wow!" A scream rang in my ear. The confused Adrian was startled and almost jumped up from the lying sofa. Then, he saw two smirks covering his mouth. Little face.
"Juliet, Dava, you guys are bothering Dad again?" Sophie shouted half of her body from the kitchen, shouting with blame and compassion.
"Daddy is so cute when he sleeps." Juliet shouted happily, screaming as soon as the voice fell, Adrian grabbed her into her arms and kneaded on her little face.
"Dare to say that my father is cute? It seems that I must take care of myself, little girl!" Adrian made a vicious tone, but only a few squeezes, Deva rushed up with her fist: "Dad does not allow Bully my sister!"
Although the voice is milky, but the little guy holding his hand hard is very determined, and Sophie shouted again in the direction of the wind: "Ed, Qian is not planning to really be with the children Care about these?"
So the "Big Devil" finally let go after a few squeezes, and the two sisters made a grimace with their father, and then chuckled away. Their feelings were so good that others could not reach it. . It's no wonder that apart from twins, there are few half-sisters in this world who are conceived at the same time and then born at the same time, even within ten seconds, so they are not twins better than twins.
Extending a lazy waist, Adrian stood up from the sofa, taking a nap for a while. Then he sniffed his nose and walked slowly to the kitchen door. After watching Sophie, who was back on the kitchen counter and cutting vegetables for a few minutes, she walked behind her and reached out to hug her waist and bury her head deep in her neck. Can't hold it anymore."
An intoxicated look. I don't know if the sentence "I can't help it" is talking about the dishes in the pot next to it, or is it referring to Sophie himself.
However, when he saw the dishes cut by Sophie's hands, he immediately frowned slightly and said, "Again... Chowder?"
"Unfortunately, Mr. Kewell," Sophie turned his head to cut carrot slices and said with a smile, "I will only cook this kind of dish, if you don't like it. You can order takeout, you can go out to eat, also Yes-back to Cannes!"
"No need at all," Adrian is certainly not stupid enough to tease Sophie here. "Then the chowder is good, and the cooking skills of Chi are very good. Both Deva and Juliet like it too. And, the two of us are playing with the children in this little villa. Of course, we should eat home-cooked food, Isn't it?"
The reason why Adrian is not staying in Cannes until the end of the film festival, except that there is no work to participate, just to create momentum for "Lost Tokyo". There are also reasons for Sophie to stay with her in Paris for two days. There is no other woman, just him and her. And two little guys, Juliet and Dava, and in a small apartment on the banks of the Seine.
Although the space of a small apartment is not as large as a luxury villa. But there is a warm atmosphere, plus children, just like an ordinary family.
So Scarlett’s request to accompany her alone at the film festival is not difficult at all. This almost coincides with his plan, and by the way, you can also make small requests, such as in Cannes. The top floor of the Castle Museum and the dense woods on the hillside left their traces.
Sophie didn’t care about it. At the restaurant that day, she was only so bold as to tease Scarlett in front of her. Adrian To be angry, plus two days later Adrian Taking time out will also coax a few sentences, and it will soon be adjusted. She is not unaware of what kind of person he is, and has long been used to it.
"If Chi feels that there is nothing to do, then help me wash these dishes." Sophie said and lifted her chin to the side basket.
"Wow, there is an onion!" Adrian exaggerated.
"Is there any difficulty?" Sophie asked him immediately without giving him the chance to play.
"No, of course not," Adrian quickly rolled up his sleeves, "I just don't like to cry because of peeling onions. This is bad, just like some annoying guys."
"Oh?" Sophie suddenly showed a curious look, "The director at the film festival?"
This time I changed to Adrian, he just said this casually, but he responded in a few seconds: "No, that kind of person is not qualified, it’s just... a fool."
"But I heard that he is the best director in the world," Sophie said, deliberately raising the bar. "There are also many people in Europe who like his work. Last year, um, I got Golden Palm last year."
"I am bragging myself." Adrian said lightly, "A person who has never been to the United States, but has filmed something that can happen anywhere, and then said that this is his American trilogy... Re-association His performance in front of me, frankly, I think his head is abnormal."
In simple terms, Adrian encountered an arrogant madman at the film festival. The Danish director Russ Von Tier, who won gold in 2000 with "Dancers in the Dark" Palm also proposed the GMA95 manifesto at the Sundance Film Festival in 1996, advocating live radio, hand-held photography, and no dubbing afterwards.
Many people expressed their support at the time, and there were also many well-known directors. Unfortunately, these fool-like old-fashioned declarations were subsequently crushed by the wave of "Titanic", even he himself filmed "Dancers in the Dark" "Nothing was fully observed. Of course, for such a cheeky guy who can publicly advertise "I am the best director in the world", it is not difficult to eat what he says. Not only that, he also often publishes some outrageous things in public. Remarks, this time it was even at a cocktail party, what did you say to Adrian carelessly--
"Should not be American, immigrate to France or Denmark, this should be the place to stay!"
"Look at the movies that Chi once directed, and then look at what they are now, how can you give up the true spirit of the movie?!
"Qi should make those movies I made, you can make them completely. You should not be so degraded!"
"Why didn’t I introduce Nicole Kidman to me? I have a movie for her."
Full talk, nonsense, and no politeness at all, self-speaking and ignoring the feelings of others. He didn't give other people the chance to speak. At that time, many people with good self-cultivation changed their faces. No wonder you can say in public that you sympathize with the Nazis, of course, this is all going to happen in the future.
Yes, Adrian knows this person. When he was obsessed with European movies in school in his previous life, he also saw his works during the period when he used to call it "Secondary 2" in colloquial terms. amazing. Fortunately, the "Secondary 2" period in the previous life was relatively short. Soon I woke up and looked at those movies, in addition to pretending or pretending, it was made entirely for uncomfortable purposes. Not art.
In this life, I have broadened my horizons and practiced so much. I increasingly feel that the group of European directors represented by von Tyre is incurable. Naturally, I am too lazy to ignore them. It is actually very simple to deal with these self-righteous people.
"Sorry. May I ask?" Adrian asked directly.
"Sorry, I haven't heard of it." After von Tyre introduced himself uncomfortably, he made a look of memory and shrugged. Without waiting for the other person to turn around, he left, as if he was corrupted by a fly.
Von Tier is said to have turned blue. And then he started to attack him at the film festival, not only saying bad things about everyone. He also claimed that fortunately he did not serve as a judge at the Cannes Film Festival in 2000. Otherwise, he will definitely try his best to prevent himself from taking the Golden Palm, which makes people cry and laugh. Interestingly, there were actually some people who responded to him, and there were some reports in the newspaper that were more biased towards von Tyre.
However, Adrian doesn’t care at all. The more people take care of him, the more he will come. After this festival, if he is still noisy, he will just let him die, which is no better than crushing an ant. simpler.
"Qi must understand that this kind of person does not want art, but the feeling of standing out from the crowd, as if he understands himself. Others are either idiots or guys who bury their heads and don’t look at the truth for the benefit. "" Adrian finally concluded.
"Okay, okay, I know you don't like European directors and movies..." Sophie shrugged.
"Hey, when did I say this, at least Luc and his movies, I still feel very good." Adrian immediately interrupted, and then changed the topic altogether while washing the vegetables: " Okay, let’s not talk about this, let’s change the subject, such as...Which movie theater is more spacious or something."
"Oh, Chi is here again," Sophie rolled her eyes. "I still remember, Ed. That's how shameful Chi was to me in that small theater that night!"
"Speaking of it, why don't we come again," Adrian said leisurely, "Romantic journey from the Eiffel Tower to that small cinema?"
"By the way, I'll play around the streets of Paris again, right?" Sophie narrowed her eyes, raised her knife, and shook his tip at him.
"Hey, Sophie, I don't think this is a good idea?" Adrian raised his hands for the first time, and then the voice of Deva came from the kitchen door: "Wow, Mommy will kill Dad."
Sophieton’s fashion is no longer going. Put the knife on the cutting board and look at the two little points protruding his head with his hands on his hips: "Okay, two of you guys, honestly give me Stay outside! It’s time to eat, no running around!"
The little guys giggled and ran away, and there was a faint voice that did not know whether it was Deva or Juliet: "Yeah, my mother is angry!"
"Now I know their two little things are awesome?" Adrian laughed, and then started the conversation before Sophie transferred his anger to himself: "Yes, there are two things I want I told Qian that although I originally wanted to wait a little longer, it seems good to tell Qi now."
"Oh?" Sophie raised an eyebrow.
"The first one is, I think Sofia is right, and I just have an interesting idea here, so I don’t know if you are interested in trying it." Adrian asked seriously.
Although after the short film was released, under his guidance, she could basically calmly face those criticisms, but it is impossible to say that she does not care, after all...
"What is it?" Sophie asked immediately.
"A short film idea about the supermarket, don’t worry. I know, I’m going to return to Los Angeles to work on a movie right away. It’s not too late for us to talk about it after it’s sealed, and I just use this time to think about passing this How to correct the shortcomings exposed in the short film." Adrian said.
"Got it." Sophie nodded. A touch of loss flickered from eyebrow to eyebrow, and immediately went to get a knife to continue cutting carrot slices.
The Adrian in my eyes smiled, walked behind her, and hugged her from behind again: "Hey, don't you plan to listen to another thing?"
"Yeah, I'm listening." Sophie replied lightly.
"I remember, Qian once produced a record, right?" Adrian's tone was a little unspoken.
The movement in the hand paused. But immediately began to continue: "Why, plan to transform me into a singer? That's not good, that album sold quite badly, everyone said I'm not suitable for singing. So don't give it to actors, writers, and actors. I have increased my status."
"But I am preparing a movie and I need to sing a song in it. What should I do?" Adrian asked deliberately in an embarrassing tone.
"Qi can find a personal vocalist, anyway, the media is not without a record company... wait, what does Chi say?!" Su Fei suddenly turned his head. Some looked at him in disbelief.
"The film is now over, and the later stage is very simple, and "The Matrix" and "The Lord of the Rings" don't bother me too much, so I want to re-produce after three or four months of rest A movie. It will be released at the end of next year." Adrian said unhurriedly.
Although it is very plain, Sophie's breath inevitably becomes a little heavy. As one of his women, how can it not be understood what it means to be a heroine in a film directed by him personally.
She stared at him. There was a slight tremor in the corner of the mouth, and after a long time, he asked softly, "Really?"
"Of course, but there are a lot of preparations, and Chi also needs a lot of training. This is a biographical film. Not only does Chi have to put on the makeup of each other, but also learn how to sing and talk, and how to look at each other. It would be very, very hard to make time to prepare the short film." Adrian said with a chuckle.
"As long as you think I can, I can." Sophie closed her eyes and leaned her entire body in the arms of Adrian.
Then, a faint, indescribable feeling reverberated in the kitchen until... a burning smell came from the pot.
"Don't think we don't know that tonight we went out to eat because my mother cooked the vegetables, don't want to lie to us!" said Juliet and Deva when she went to bed that night.
By the end of the 55th Cannes Film Festival at the end of May, Adrian had returned to Los Angeles to continue to film "The Devil's Head". Although "Lost Tokyo" attracted widespread attention at the film festival, it was still And missed the Golden Palm. Although the European Film Festival does not treat female directors as harshly as Oscars, it is not easy to win awards, not to mention Sofia is an American.
However, Adrian changed some things. Although Sofia failed to get the Golden Palm, she won the Jury Prize, not all of them. And, for some reason, this year's Golden Palm was Italian director Marco Berrocchio's "Moment of Religion" and not...
From the start of shooting, it took about five working days to seal "The Devil's Head". The starring Gwyneth was finally relieved, and she could finally start losing weight without ugly makeup. . In fact, as early as Adrian went to the Cannes Film Festival, she consciously started to lose weight, but not so violently, so after Adrian came back, although the body is no longer particularly bloated, it is no problem to continue shooting.
"Suffering, dear Gwinnie, it's worth it." This is the first sentence Adrian said to her after sealing the mirror.
"Thank you, I just want to return to my previous appearance as soon as possible, and I don't want to endure it for another day!" Gwyneth replied angrily.
"I promise that if nothing goes wrong, I will give Qi a big surprise next year." Adrian said with a wink, "Let Qian earn all the wrongs he suffered in the past."
He didn’t shy away from these words, and Anne also listened to these words with her ears straight. It seemed that she should know what she would do best.
After the completion of "The Devil's Head" he relaxed a little bit-although he had only relaxed in Europe-and attended the premiere of Jack Chen's movie "Western Dragon". The summer holiday season has arrived, and all the films aiming at this period are preparing to land in major theaters. With Jack Chen's current popularity in the United States, it is very appropriate to arrange "Western Dragon" at this time.
This film is also a new line of investment, and Lin Zhiling has also acted as the heroine. Although it is a vase heroine, it does not matter if he attends the premiere.
"Thank you very much for your visit, Mr. Kewell." Jack Chen, as always, was enthusiastic.
"You're welcome, Mr. Chen, I have always liked Qian's movies." Adrian responded with a smile.
He knows why he is so passionate~IndoMTL.com~ Thanks for attending the premiere is one reason, Adrian is one of the most powerful people in Hollywood after all, want to cooperate is another matter. Although it is Hollywood and not Hong Kong, he and Jet? Lee have temporarily put down some of the previous conflicts, but that kind of competition is still indispensable, and Jet? Lee has an important role in "The Matrix 2." As everyone knows, the mainland has also left a place for this movie early. Jack? Why wouldn’t Chen want to cooperate with him and take him one step further, but unfortunately...
"How do you feel about him?" After Jack Chen left, Adrian asked Lin Zhiling around him casually, he didn't shy away from her in the public, and she also snuggled up with him in a generous manner. Body.
"It's not bad, it's good to take care of people," Lin Zhiling said scornfully, "Relax, although he does have some thoughts, but he dare not."
Adrian couldn’t help but laugh, but basically, two people who are engaged in media and entertainment in the three stations should now know that Lin Zhiling is his ban, so whether it’s cooperation with Jack Chen or “Western Veyron” or go Mainland China participated in "Heroes", she received quite good treatment.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with Lin Xilei. She is really good at acting as an agent. Not to mention, the character in "Scorpion King" is what she won for Lin Zhiling alone. (To be continued...)
