King of Hollywood Chapter 234: Status


"Don’t even think about it, James, you have to know that the budget you gave you was $100 million. You should be content. Look at Joe. Which one has you treated like this? I haven’t even made it. Movies with a budget of more than 100 million US dollars." Adrian stood with a cup against the wall and ridiculed James Cameron, who was also bearded.

"Hey, it's just 10 million, and I just want to make it better." Cameron squawked.

"Don't even think about it, James, unless you pay for yourself-what do you think, Trent?" Adrian said and looked at the Fox General Manager Sean Waters next door.

"I completely agree." Waters laughed, as the general manager of Fox, he oversaw the production of "The Real Lie" throughout the process. He was too aware of Cameron's style.

"Okay, James, Ed is right, few directors can get a $100 million budget to splurge like you." Seeing Cameron still want to speak, Jonathan Demi on the side immediately He opened his mouth, but the tone was also ridiculous.

"Okay, James, I was delusional again," Adrian took the lead, and did not give Cameron a chance to speak. "I will talk about this movie with peace of mind."

Cameron finally smiled and shrugged, then suddenly thought of something and asked, "Remember what we said that day, Ed? When he came out of the bar, Sean was there that day, but he left early. ."

"Of course I remember, I will never forget my words," Adrian chuckled, "If this movie can achieve the expected goal, then I will invest 200 million to let you make the next movie"

"Really?" Cameron's eyes suddenly lighted up, and there was excitement in his tone. "So how many box office did you achieve your expected goal?"

"Well, wait until the movie is released." Adrian spread his hands, and the people around him suddenly laughed. In their view, Adrian was just kidding. The disappointed look flashed across Cameron's face, but after contacting Adrian's meaningful expression, he seemed to understand something, and then he laughed with everyone.

“Speaking of it, I suddenly envy Arnold and they are not everyone, so not everyone can play the leading role in such a big investment.” Denzel Washington said at the moment with a half-joking tone.

"Who knows, no one can predict what will happen in the future." Tom Hanks smiled and patted his shoulder.

"I can anticipate." Adrian immediately said, and then said seriously after everyone's eyes looked at it: "However, I can only anticipate the latest things, such as the prospect of "The Philadelphia Story."

At this moment, there was another burst of laughter, and then the global executive Todd Browning on the other side asked: "So what is the prospect of "Philadelphia Story?"

"I believe that anyone who has watched the audition will feel good, and Joe may be nominated for Oscar's best director." Adrian thought about it and said with a very serious taste.

"Is this a prophecy? Should it be regarded as a miracle director's prophecy?"

"Hah, it looks like I should congratulate Joe in advance, and maybe get nominated after a year."

"Oh, please, this is just the prediction of Ed, do you all think this is true?"

Everyone started to discuss it, and then the topic got further and further away. These are the guests at the party, the executives of several good film companies, as well as several well-known directors and actors, even Spielberg and Lukes have come-although only stayed for thirty or forty Leave in minutes-not to mention those second- and third-line directors, actors, producers, agents, etc.

In addition, the head of the Los Angeles branch, Frank West, attended. After all, "Friends" is being broadcast on their TV network, and some other TV networks have some ideas-such as certain guests Always bring a few friends-to the party, including the target Turner Broadcasting Company of Adrian.

The well-informed guys all know that since Bosworth Films has produced such a popular TV series, it will definitely continue to develop, plus there is also the miracle director or miracle writer Adrian-this is in After the popularity of "Friends", people in the circle gave him a new name. However, given that he still focuses on making movies, most of the screenwriters only provide ideas and let the screenwriter complete it, so this name only exists in private.

In short, if there is such a person, the TV series will be guaranteed as much as possible. These TV networks naturally hope to take a slice of it. After all, the competition above is also very big

It can be seen that although Adrian is a Hollywood upstart in terms of time, in terms of status and identity, it is already much higher than the name of the new director or producer. After all, he is also the chairman of the media, although the media is still inferior to those large group companies, but the director of a media company is almost no such thing as a director, this is naturally not the ordinary new director or producer can Comparable.

"Remember what you promised me, Tom, there is a movie next year and I hope you can be the actor." Adrian took the time to say this to Hanks in front of everyone.

"No problem, I will spare you a schedule." The other party agreed without a hesitation.

"It seems that the workaholic is about to start again." Then someone ridiculed like this, and then withdrew a bunch of topics.

This is also a manifestation of power and status. If someone invites Hanks in such a way, he will never answer so readily. Of course, this has nothing to do with Hanks has not reached the peak, but the same is true of Adrian, otherwise he will not use "I need" instead of "I hope".

However, such status, identity and power are relative. Although he can be regarded as a big man in front of these people, some people are still outright newcomers. They attended the godfather’s reception a few days ago. The old man in Lei Shidong said that he and Claude were "two good young people".

Although it is slightly unpleasant, Adrian is quickly left behind, and of course Lei Shidong is qualified to say so. In fact, most of the celebrities who attended the godfather cocktail party can say so, they are indeed young people. But this does not mean that the young people are very tender, Claude quickly put a little bit of Lei Shidong together.

"I'm not sure about his proposal, it's a joke, so simple I want to get Paramount's shares from me." After a few words with Lei Shidong alone, Claude treated Adrian like this Said, "Although we all agree to fall back to Viacom, but it is by no means now, let's wait until they compare the results."

For this, Adrian can only laugh.

"Hey, Ed, you are here." A hand suddenly slapped on Adrian's shoulder.

"Dan?" Adrian turned his head, and then deliberately showed a sigh of relief, "Who do I think it is again?"

"What's wrong?" Dennis asked strangely.

"No, it's nothing. Have you had a good time?" Adrian shook his head and started the conversation, chatting with Cameron for a long time, and coping with the executives of various TV networks who came to talk for a while. He I was thinking of staying in this quiet corner for a few minutes, and then found Julia to leave, but I didn't expect Dennis to find it again.

"Oh, of course, very happy, so are they." Dennis said to let go of his body, and there are a few other six starring stars including Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox and Matthew Perry. The screenwriter and several directors appeared before him.

"Hi, Ed, I haven't seen you in a long time. You look a lot more handsome." Compared to the other five actors, Jennifer is more familiar with Adrian, so he smiled and greeted him first.

"Hey, Jane, you too, are more beautiful than before." Adrian smiled and hugged her, and then another five people embraced in turn: "Gentlemen, ladies, congratulations."

"Thank you, Ed."

"Yes, if it were not for you, we wouldn’t have the chance to star in such an interesting TV series."

Matthew and others talked eloquently, and their words were full of gratitude and respect, especially David Xiumeng. After all, when Adrian asked them to appear in the show, he tried to refuse. If Adrian didn't give up, then he wouldn't be here today, maybe he would desperately regret it at home.

Adrian smiled and talked to them, accepting their gratitude very frankly, to be honest, for a few minutes he really wanted to know if they found that their role was completely restricted to ten years later In "Friends", no matter how the transformation is in vain, will you feel resentful?

"Oh, Ed, have you considered a guest role in "Friends"?" After a few minutes of chatting, a screenwriter suddenly said to Adrian that everyone's eyes were turned to him.

"Do you have any good comments, Braga?" Adrian asked quietly.

The biggest attraction of "Friends" is not only those interesting language and humor close to life, but also those who are popular stars to make guest appearances. All of them were starred in the original cast, and this point of view will of course not be ignored~IndoMTL.com~I just didn't expect them to put their ideas on his head.

"Have an idea." The male screenwriter known as Braga said with a smile, he was about 27 or 8 years old, very young, no wonder he was so bold.

“Matt’s Joey is a soap opera actor, who just designed a plot for a movie audition for him.” Braga said, “You can act as a director or just play yourself, think about it, Joey Going to participate in the casting of Director Miracle."

"Friends" has been filmed in 11 episodes, and there are at least 13 episodes to be filmed. They are planning to let him start the cameo. It’s a good plan.

"How about, Ed, all you need is a real performance." Seeing that he was still thinking, Braga continued to persuade, "You know, Dan is behind you, and when Jane speaks, he promises to guest ""

"Dan has agreed?" Adrian looked at Dennis, who nodded to him.

Interesting. Adrian narrowed his eyes. Speaking of that, at the party tonight, Dan has always been very close to Jane, and Noni has not seen him a few times... really interesting. ()
