King of Hollywood Chapter 213: Ready
"National Treasure" is a good movie, with decryption and action, theft and legend, and it is not fierce. It is suitable for the whole family to sit in the movie theater to watch. However, compared to the most popular movies of the same period, the box office is not as good as the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, and it is not as impressive as the "Spy" series, so Adrian did not think about this for a while.
And when he thought of and wanted to prepare, Brookheimer brought Copman to the door, Adrian encountered this kind of thing for the first time in more than a decade. But it’s not too strange. In the past, he wanted to copy movies and TV series. Even when he started his career, he would let people collect good information in advance to see if there were any similar ideas, and then use various means to make the concept widely known— —Before relying on screenwriter unions, it was easier after having your own media group, so when you have never planned to make a certain movie and TV series for so many years, the original author already had the idea.
And the "National Treasure" came to him on a temporary basis. Naturally, no investigation has been started yet, so there is no need to be too surprised. After all, the world cannot completely follow his heart. Of course, there is no shortage of plots to show as a talented writer.
"...Although Gates is an adventurer who likes archaeology, he is not a criminal after all, so when Shaw planned to steal the Manifesto, he refused to participate. Of course, the two broke up and Gates escaped Shaw’s After the persecution, they immediately went to the Department of Homeland Security, B and the National Archives with their assistants. But these departments did not believe it, so in order to protect the Declaration from being destroyed..."
"Gates and his assistants took the first step and stolen the "Declaration" in front of Xiao, preferably at a party at the National Archives, and Gates can also meet women at this party The protagonist, she can be a real archaeologist or a person in charge of the archives. In short, she can help Gates in this regard. Really?"
"...After using the children to find the letters on the letters, they finally found that the remaining clues were pointing to the clock, but they were not clear what time it should be, which became another problem."
"I remember the clock pattern on one hundred dollars, and there must be time to show that since the whole story starts with one dollar bills, it should be possible to insert a hundred dollar bills in the middle for guidance. Right?"
Normal dialogue comes to an end in this situation, and Copman often talks about the key points. Adrian can always be just right, and every time the plot said is not much different from what he thought. So at the end, Copman sighed and looked at Brookheimer, who laughed.
"How about, Brian. I said Ed will see the value of your script." He said so.
"Yes, Mr. Kewell deserves to be the best screenwriter in Hollywood." Copman shrugged with conviction.
"Actually, I just happened to be planning a story about the treasure, and I was also working on the "Declaration" idea. I just had an idea. There are some details, but there is no specific outline. It is just that your idea triggered my Inspiration, so I will make up in one breath." Adrian said very naturally, his face was not blushing or beating.
"So, can this matter be settled like this?" Brookheimer said while hot.
"Of course. But it may have to be postponed. I still have some things to consider, and you also have to be busy with the latter two episodes of "Pirates of the Caribbean", such as delaying it to next year?" Adrian said with a smile, " I already thought of a suitable person to play Ben Franklin Gates."
This made the two in front of him stunned, and then they both showed emotions, and they were indeed directors of miracles.
Since he has spoken like this, Brookheimer does have a movie to be busy. So it's settled like this. Next, it's up to Cage himself.
"Brian, if you have time, consider how to arrange the plot if you want to write a sequel." Adrian added this sentence before Copman left.
Kopman froze, and immediately agreed happily. Obviously, Director Marvel was optimistic about the movie, but Director Marvel was optimistic, almost never failed.
It can only help him to this point. If Cage cannot learn a lesson, then Adrian is powerless.
In addition to "Stickman", "Summer of Jeans" was also released at this time, because the cost is low, and the popularity of the actors is not very high, so no premiere was held. Of course, the promotion is still very good, the box office is slightly better than the original, and the word of mouth is as good as ever.
"Frankly speaking, you did a very good job, Liden, and the film critics are full of praise for your performance." Adrian, who was sitting on a sun lounger under a parasol by the pool, was lying on the ground after getting out of the water. Liton Meister at the edge of the pool said.
"It's just good, not as good as Alexis or Amanda." Liton said with a grin, not very satisfied.
Adrian couldn’t help but laugh. Among the four heroines in “Summer of Jeans”, um, it should be said to be four and a half heroines, among which there is a little girl with leukemia, by Kristen Stewart Acting, because of the role setting, plus her temperament at this time is also very suitable, so it is more eye-catching in the movie.
In short, of the four and a half heroines, Megan doesn’t say that she still needs to make a vase for a long time. Alexis has a lot of performances anyway, and this role matches her well, so it’s Best performing. Although Amanda is not as experienced as Alexis, she does not intend to give up any opportunity, and Adrian obviously prefers capable women, so she works very hard, and the praise is only a little worse than Alexis. .
In this case, Leighton can only be ranked third. In fact, for her, it is already very good to evaluate in front of Christine. This younger girl is younger and has acting skills. The performance in "Terror Space" is also impressive. So Liton’s unhappy is Amanda, she has a lot of nights than she took on Adrian, but the film has been filmed several times, there are two works starring in her in the past two weeks, and the evaluation is also good, Liton of course Will not be reconciled.
Then the girl jumped out of the water with a clatter. Her swimsuit is basically a rope, pulled from the top to the bottom, covering only three points, it looks the same as not wearing it. But in fact, it is much more attractive than naked. Before that, when Liton swimed in front of Adrian, she wore nothing or only underwear, but Adrian told her to prefer her to wear like this, she immediately changed her style.
From this point of view, Leighton is very obedient, so Adrian does not mind meeting her requirements, not to mention...
"Give me a protagonist, okay." Lidun lay on the chest of Adrian, the green body that had not completely faded slowly twisted, "I don’t need too high box office and word of mouth, I... I only I want to be a protagonist again."
"No problem." Adrian agreed in one bite, so fast that the girl was a little unbelievable.
"This is what you deserve," he smiled. The topic immediately changed, "By the way, how are you at Burbank High School, last time you said that Black had pulled some cheerleaders to her side again, and it had the upper hand more than you?"
"It was only because of some of her parents' relationships that she gained this advantage." When she heard the name, Liton showed a disdainful expression, "If a fair showdown occurs, I will never lose to her, and..."
She took a deep look at Adrian, and her lower body shook more frequently: "If you are willing to support me, it will be easy for me to win her."
Hearing this sentence. Adrian chuckled irresponsibly, and Liton was disappointed, but his eyes widened as he thought of something.
"Ed," she climbed up, her face flashing with excitement, "Do you want to play with her?"
"Oh?" Adrian raised an eyebrow with interest.
"I know her very well. After all, we are opponents. Although she had a boyfriend in school. But because I have to deal with it soon I broke up. I believe she and he have never been in bed. You must feel very much about her. Interest." Leighton looked at him carefully and said.
"How do you think we will do the last trick again?" Adrian rubbed this chin, and suddenly asked, "Maybe I can give you a small follower."
Lidden looked down, and immediately showed ecstasy: "She will take the hook, I promise."
Adrian nodded with satisfaction. Did Liton be sent to Burbank soon to see the live version and make some ideas? Now it's time to prepare.
Of course, although I think of it this way, he still has some time before that time, so his attention is still on the movie. In late September, the summer vacation is about to end, and the autumn season of the TV series has already begun. The fully publicized "Julie and Julia" finally held its premiere in New York.
Adrian did not participate, he passed the next day, as for the reason...
"...Natalie once again showed her amazing talent. When I watched this movie on my seat, Julie Powell restored the food that Julia once introduced on TV. At that time, I didn’t realize that she was only a 22-year-old girl and a vegetarian. The mature and simple contradictory feeling was perfectly reflected in her. When she appeared in the movie, she Julie Powell, who couldn’t find her goal until 30 years old but was curious about many things, wanted to keep trying. Although she and Streep had no rivals in the movie, they showed their acting skills. But they didn’t lose to each other at all. The two seemed to be fighting each other for decades. This is a classic.” After reading this, it was finally over. Adrian dropped the newspaper on the table and looked at the balcony. Natalie laughed.
The young girl is only wearing striped pajamas and white leggings, so her legs are exposed, the toes are on the ground, and there are no shoes. Although the curve of the calf is not perfect, it is quite tempting. . She just leaned on the railing and bathed in the morning light, enjoying the breeze. Every time she reached out to pluck her hair, she showed a different taste.
"Most of them are praised, your performance is really good, Nada, I was greatly surprised." Adrian walked to her and hugged her in her arms from behind, "I was watching the sample At that time, I felt that the scene of your remaking French beef beef stew was very good. The intoxicating feeling was clearly conveyed to me, and now also to these film critics."
"I did it several times with my own hands." Natalie said lightly.
"I know, you are very talented and work very hard-I heard that your father had a quarrel with you because of this?" Adrian leaned into her ear and kissed gently.
"This kind of thing is normal. It was an accident without quarreling one day," Natalie glanced at him. "It's just a trivial matter. I just eat a little meat as you ordered."
"This is good living habits," Adrian laughed. Then some greedily took a deep breath at the back of her neck, "Look at you now, not fat or thin, very suitable, more and more fascinating."
Natari was silent, and said quietly after a while: "I can only perform with all my heart."
Listening to Adrian in my ears, I don’t care: “Yes, I know, so I chose to come here today. Instead of attending the premiere last night, I was telling you that I’m going to start.”
"Going to start?" Natalie turned around immediately and looked at him incredulously, even though she was plain looking just a few seconds ago.
"Of course, I said it before. It will be turned on at the latest this month." Adrian laughed, with some meaningful meaning, "Everything I have done so far includes "Julie and Julia" that was screened last night, Are preparing for next year."
Despite being uncomfortable under his gaze, Natalie showed her expectation. After all, she knew exactly what it meant. She has lost a lot along the way. Although she hates Adrian, she knows that if she wants to get what she wants, there is no other way than relying on him.
"In a few months, as long as "Julie and Julia" brings what it deserves, next year or early 2005 will basically not be a problem." Adrian said immediately.
Of course. This is not true, although his power is already one of the best in Hollywood, but if Sophie is again ranked as the best actress this year, then this award will basically be his for 6 consecutive years. It’s hard to predict what the Film Academy’s reaction will be. Although he still has some cards, Natalie’s reputation is not easy to achieve results, so he found a way for her before coming out of “Forever” The right movie hits the front station.
Before, he has not been particularly optimistic about "Julie and Julia", but there is no more suitable for the time being. I had to use this. But at present, the result of this decision is very good, not to mention the word of mouth. Based on the report he just read, the critics basically applauded, although none of them gave a full score, the movie The plot is still a bit warm, the food is very attractive, and the theme is very inspirational, and the shooting techniques are also in place, but the ups and downs are really not much. However, in tenths of a century, the ratings of these film critics are basically 7.5 to 8 points, which is unexpectedly consistent. From this aspect, the movie is still very desirable.
The box office is also acceptable. The first four digits of the first week and the number of theaters are the same. For a medium-investment movie, it is already very good. It is entirely possible to rely on the North American box office to pay back. There is both word-of-mouth and box office, and it will become popular next year with a little operation. Then the rest is public relations. The nomination of the best supporting actress should not be a problem, as long as it is not faked.
As a result, there will be a good show next year, and the role of this card will be greater in hand, which will play an important role in promoting his plans for the end of 2005 and the beginning of 06.
Of course, these Natalie don’t know, and her cleverness can certainly analyze the situation facing Adrian, but she chose to believe it. In addition to the shocking analysis that gave her considerable shock, Adrian also impressed her in recent years, not to mention that he took actresses one by one to the best actress Oscar, Nata Li also saw him grow from a small film company to a huge media group within ten years.
Although she does not have access to the confidential information, the most basic analysis is okay. Adrian has made almost no mistakes, and basically promoted the development of Universal with one person, so even with Natalie It is inevitable that his sensible personality will give birth to a deep-rooted idea, "This person can't resist", "I can do it as long as he wants to do".
"I'm ready." Natalie finally replied in this way.
So~IndoMTL.com~ This love and inspirational movie "Moving Forward", which describes Johnny Cash and his wife Joan Carter, was turned on at the end of September. Um, wait, there is still something to be dealt with in the Adrian before the official boot. When he went to the studio to check the situation, he accidentally encountered Sophie, who is always refusing to disclose the specific situation to him and is directing his second short film. I finally know how she has modified this short film.
When the script of this short film was first handed to her at Adrian, the name was "The Sleepless in the Supermarket". That's right, the one who was nominated for the Oscar for the best short film. A supermarket was hired as a night salesperson. In order to pass the 8 hours of boredom at night, when we observed strange guests, weaved stories for them in our hearts.
A very exquisite short film with some unspeakable obscurity, but it does not affect the viewing. Although it was later expanded into a complete film, in many people's eyes, the short film is more tasteful.
Because the scenes and stories are relatively simple, all you need to pay attention to is the grasp of the rhythm and the processing of the picture, so Adrian hands this to Sophie to practice. Who knows that Sophie made a drastic modification after getting it, and did not let him know, so in the end the actor was changed into a heroine, and what surprised him more was that it was Kaden? Rose! (To be continued)
