King of Hollywood Chapter 189: Rookie director

The boundary between work and life has never been so obvious. If a person’s female secretary or assistant speaks to him like this, it can only mean that her heart is messed up. Unfortunately, Charlize does not understand, but Adrian does. .

So after hearing some words from Charlize that day, Adrian didn't say anything, silently patted her hand, and left the amusement park together after she recovered. Not only that, in the next few days, he did not talk to Charlize about anything outside of work, and even deliberately showed a certain distance.

Yeah, of course, it’s up to you. For this hand, Adrian can’t be more skillful. He can also use this time to handle some important things.

Michael Bay sat on the sofa outside the office and changed his posture, and then touched his nose. This is the third time he has done this. He is not as laid back as the middle-aged man sitting across from the newspaper looking at him-he knows the middle-aged man, but the middle-aged man certainly does not know him-the other party has at least works that are handy, even if these works Basically it is done in cooperation with others. But what about himself? In addition to a few MTVs and advertisements, and the trophies won by these MTVs and advertisements, what else?

Thinking that he started to become more nervous here, his eyes could not help looking at the door of the office again. What exactly did the miracle director want him to do? Before knowing Adrian? Kewell, Michael Bay really didn't admire anyone, even if he had met many directors and producers through his uncle at the top of the world, and had a relationship with Spielberg and others, he was always in There was a sense of arrogance in my heart that I would never make a movie worse than them.

Even if he knew about Adrian later, he didn’t take it seriously, an independent director who only shoots low-cost. But with Adrian appearing in the public's field of vision again and again, and constantly causing controversy in this way, Michael? Bay's eyes are gradually attracted to the past.

His original intention hasn’t changed. He still doesn’t like those literary and artistic films, and still doesn’t think he will be better than any director if he makes a movie. But the long list of achievements of Adrian is really dazzling, and he has been in charge of the director for less than three years. He has already nominated two Oscars for the best director. At the same time, he used two films to pave the way for Pasino and Thompson. The road behind the shadow. More importantly, he made money in every movie, and almost never lost money, including the movies he invested in, and those filmed based on scripts from his hands.

Michael Bay doesn’t need to care about the nominations of Adrian, but he can’t care about his ability to make money. There are also many kinds of fame. For example, each film is the fame of art that is praised by people, or each film can earn a lot of fame. For Michael Bay, the latter is obviously more attractive to him. Needless to say, Adrian's ability to make money, the most amazing thing is that he has never touched anything related to filmmaking before. This is described in detail in those reports about him, and he himself Also admit this.

Since its establishment in Hollywood, no director has been able to do so. Apart from genius, I am afraid there is no better word to describe it. It is no wonder that the media will now call him a miracle director. The well-informed Michael Bay knows more. For example, Adrian is not only the boss of Bosworth Films, but also the chairman of the media that has not been established for a long time.

If you can achieve so many achievements in less than three years, you can’t be considered a successful person, so what kind of person can be considered a successful person? As the same old saying goes, if the opponent's ability is only a little higher than you, you may be jealous of him; but if the opponent's ability is too much than you, then you can only look up at him.

So Michael Bay would sit here and suffer the consequences. He didn’t understand the reason why Adrian sent invitations through his uncle, wanted him to direct the movie? There are so many people to choose from, right? Besides, they never even met. So what will it be? I heard that he still has a record company, is it...

Just when he was cranky, the female secretary had pushed open the door of the office and came out: "Mr. Michael Bay, Mr. Jerry Brookheimer, Mr. Adrian, please invite you in."

She is so beautiful, what's her name? Charlize Theron, seems to be the name. Looking at the glamorous girl, Michael Bay could not help but whistle in his heart, followed him stunned, went in together?

The middle-aged man sitting opposite him also showed the same expression, but after a few seconds it reacted. After a friendly smile to Michael, he got up and walked to the office first.

Michael immediately got up and followed, his thoughts were all focused on the upcoming events at this moment, and he had no time to take care of the others. The previous successes and losses were also thrown out of Jiuxiaoyun.

This is a simple office without too much furniture, but it is very comfortable to arrange, and all the utensils are arranged quite neatly, as if interpreting the word "order". At this time, the young man sitting at the desk was frowning and holding the phone to say something. He was wearing a white shirt but no tie. The neckline opened a mouth and the coat was hanging on the coat rack. It also gives an uninhibited feeling.

"Please sit down." The Adrian behind the desk saw them coming in, quickly confessed to the microphone, and followed up to reach out: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Bay, Mr. Brookheimer."

"I'm also very happy to see you, Mr. Kewell." The two of them just got on the chair and stood up again.

"Please sit down, don't be so constrained, please call me Adrian or Ed, I am not either A, nor the tax bureau, nor are you invited to assist in the investigation." Adrian said jokingly.

Some of the playful words suddenly relaxed, and then Adrian pressed the phone's contact button: "Hey, Charlie, I'll trouble you a little more, please send us three glasses..."

He suddenly stopped to look at the two in front of him.

"Coffee." Michael Bay and Brookheimer replied coincidentally, then looked at each other unexpectedly, and then added again in unison: "No matter what taste."

Adrian couldn’t help laughing: “Okay, Charlie, three cups of latte, thank you.”

Then he smiled and looked at the two of them: "It's true that I have chosen out of thousands of partners, so I have a tacit understanding before I start."

In the face of Michael and Brookheimer’s puzzled and clear eyes, he handed the two bound scripts on his desk to them: "Take a few minutes to read the script first."

Michael and Brookheimer looked at each other, and they both took the script and read it.

Different from Brookheimer who turned it around and read it again. Michael read each page very carefully and devoted himself, even though Charlize sent coffee, he didn't notice it. First, he wanted to understand as much as possible what this story is; second, he could take this opportunity to calm down his excitement. Adrian said he heard very well, he asked him to direct the movie

It took about 20 minutes for Michael to finish reading the script. He had intended to take a longer time to read it more carefully, but Brookheimer around him had finished reading it and was drinking coffee waiting for him, so The last third had to read the matter hastily. Rao is so, he still feels excited. This is a good story. He is hot and humorous and funny at the same time. He can almost draw out some very dynamic pictures in his head.

"This is a good script...Adrian." Michael thought about it and decided to call the other person's full name.

"Thank you, Jerry said the same, I knew that you would be a good partner." Adrian laughed, "So, since your opinions are so consistent, I am willing to be the producer of this movie. And the director?"

The two in front of each other looked at each other again, and then looked up and down at each other again, and finally Brookheimer said: "I can know why I chose...we, Ed?"

"This is a purely commercial film, I need a producer with more relevant experience in this area, so Tang recommended you to me, he said you are his best partner, you have been working together Very pleasant." Adrian said with a smile, "I believe what he said."

Then he looked at Michael: "As for Mike, although you have no experience in directing movies, I have watched all your MTVs and commercials, which are very dynamic and impactful, and this is exactly what this movie needs Yes. It doesn’t pay attention to other things, it just needs to make the audience feel interesting, beautiful, and cool.”

He said that Adrian suddenly laughed again, with a little apology: "Of course, another reason is that the budget of this movie is only about 20 million at most, and most of it will be spent on stunts, so there is no too much More funds to invite well-known directors."

"It's okay." Michael shrugged and said nothing else. Adrian was telling the truth. He was indeed a newcomer in the film directed.

"But I believe Mike will do a great job~IndoMTL.com~ Just as I believe Jerry will do a good job," Adrian looked at Michael and Brookheimer, "I don’t I think it’s a bad thing to work with a new director. They may be more energetic and imaginative than some well-known directors, and the films they produce will be more attractive-in fact, I am still a new director."

Brookheimer, who was still thinking, smiled suddenly: "I agree with this, I agree."

"Very good." Adrian said, looking at Michael.

"I have no problem," Michael said quickly. This was an opportunity anyway, and he had no reason to let it go.

"Very good, gentlemen, the rest is to discuss the signing of the contract and the preparation of the movie," Adrian clapped his hands. "The actors and I are also ready for you. Two black actors who switched from TV dramas to movies, Very good, I believe you can cooperate happily."

"No problem, you are the boss." Brookheimer shrugged his shoulders and accepted. Michael suddenly asked: "Is it because of the budget to choose black actors?"

"Uh..." Adrian thought about it, and then spread his hands, "It's true." ()
