King of Hollywood Chapter 331: Open source?


The study was quiet, only rustling of page turning. Dakota Fanning carrying a cup from time to time sipped his head, then secretly looked at Adrian, hoping to see something he wanted to react. It is a pity that she was disappointed that the other party did not look up from beginning to end and has been looking at the script seriously.

After a long time, Adrian finally combined the script and thought carefully, and then looked up: "Tell me, Hannah, what do you think."

Dakota froze for a moment, but he didn’t expect his first sentence to ask this, hesitated for a few seconds, and after careful consideration, he said: "I want to take over this role." ",

Adrian nodded slightly: "Understandably, with your acting skills, it should not be a problem to control this role."

The little girl suddenly showed a happy look, but his next sentence made her smile condensed on her face: "But I object."

"Why...why?" Dakota made no secret of her disappointment. Obviously, she wanted the role very much.

"Because of the **** scene," Adrian raised the script and shook it. "Almost five to ten minutes, with clear details. Do you know what this means, Hannah? You want to act in front of the camera This paragraph.""Look

"I know, I know what this scene represents, but I also think it is acceptable. Besides, this part will definitely be shot separately and edited with montage in the later period, it will not matter, Cam Ms. Pumel also said personally that she would guarantee it," Dakota anxiously defended.

Hearing the name of Kampmel, Adrian raised his eyebrows unnoticeably: "But society doesn't think so, they will only see a little girl playing the movie who shouldn't have been her. The plot to bear, and then they will condemn and cruel. What you think of the crew is nothing to do with them, they only know that a little girl seems to have been violated. Then. You and the movie will be put in Public opinion is at the forefront of your opinion. For a long time, your name gave a negative impression. This situation should not be what you want."

Dakota’s face was pale, and if someone said it, she might be dismissive, but it’s different from Adrian, but...

"I understand your thoughts, Hannah," Adrian continued. "However, there are many ways to change the image of a child star. This fierce method is undoubtedly the most undesirable. Maybe it can make you jump out of the shackles of the original image, but it may also ruin your image. If there is no such pretense Gestures, or this movie just shows your maturity, I will not object, but as far as this script is concerned, I do not recommend you to go."

"I...I know." Dakota took the script from Adrian extremely disappointed. After a while sighed so.

"Don't worry, Hannah, there are still many opportunities. Patience is a virtue." Adrian immediately said so comfortingly.

The girl grinned reluctantly. Then he stood up and bowed, and then turned around and left his study, except that the shell teeth hadn't loosened on his lips.

Adrian did not notice this detail. He didn't care even if he noticed it, he just wanted to beat Dakota. Although he just said "I understand your thoughts", "There are many ways to change the image of a child star", etc., he is very clear. What Dakota really wants is not this, her purpose is Oscar.

As a child star currently hailed as the most potential, if she can get a nomination at this time, it is conceivable how to improve in and out of the circle, if you can win an award... Although it is unlikely, but It may not be possible to beat it once. To make herself more unique and more compelling, this is what she wants, otherwise why would she want to take on such a role for the little girl with such a large scale.

Ambitious, isn't it? Adrian doesn't mind her ambition, but it must conform to the route planned for her. Holding her up is not just to make her famous. There is no doubt that the film "Hound" is not suitable for Dakota. She is too young. If you are two years old, it will be fine, but now, the negative impact is definitely far more than positive.

Kampmeer invited her to participate, more to create a reputation for her film, but never thought about the consequences carefully. The mainstream society can tolerate a little girl to play the role of being violated, but definitely not Allow to show in the lens. In fact, in another time and space, the reason why Dakota fell into a trough for a long time, is to give thanks to this movie.

She will use this to ask her opinion, or she will come to her home alone, explaining that she still values ​​his opinion. Adrian also took this opportunity to knock it down and let her understand what she should do. Although she listened to it, it was good. It didn’t matter if she didn’t. As for certain aspects, Adrian feels that it can be taken care of, so let it go naturally.

That's all for the movie. Oh, and Sophie's new work. After the "Dead Girl" directed by the film received mixed reviews, she became more and more confident with the director's work. Adrian originally wanted to dispel Sophie's thoughts, but think about it carefully, she is so active, it seems that it is not good to splash cold water, and it is not a big deal to touch the wall once in a while, so a certain thriller-type script has already been prepared. To her.

Interestingly, Adrian hasn’t spoken yet. Sophie, who has seen the script, said enthusiastically that Monica can star with herself.

"I believe you definitely want to see this scene, otherwise you will not come up with such a script." Sophie's expression at the time "Don't think I don't know".

Okay, that’s true. The reason why the script “Don’t Look Back” was written several years in advance, and the plot was adjusted a lot, just to make Sophie and Monica more in the movie. One step closer. Her own woman has an intimate move in the movie. In addition to Nicole and Naomi in "Mulholland Drive", there are only Sophie and Monica in "The Matrix 2", and the scale of Sophie and Monica Much smaller than Nicole and Naomi.

Other women are unlikely to be intimate in the movie for the time being, so it’s definitely interesting to push Sophie and Monica again. It was just that she originally wanted Sophie to direct one or two movies and accumulated more experience before considering "Don't Look Back", but she didn't expect her interest to be so high. But as I said before, if you shoot well, it's just right, and if you don't shoot properly, bumping into the wall is also rewarding.

Then. The film that Ji Li and Scarlett collaborated on, the scene was moved to the United States, "Love Credits" was also picked up at the end of September this month to take over the next schedule. Unlike in "Princess Wearing Prada", Scarlett dyed her hair into reddish chestnut hair this time, quite like the naughty smell in "X-Men", but dressed more refreshingly, very university student. In fact, she is very suitable for this kind of light and light dress, too thick or too light makeup will have an adverse effect.

Ji Li has blond hair inside, continuing the pretty image from "Super Hero" to "Football Stuff", but acting skills... I won't say it. But Ji Li didn't care, for her. As long as it is not the role of the heroine of "Football Stunts", everything is not a problem. Obviously, the experience of making a movie with a chest wrap gave her a very bad deep impression.

"This will hurt my chest." When she was in New York before, when talking about "Football Stuff", she supported her soft and pitiful words.

Okay, she made this deputy look more to compete with Scarlett than to complain, but I have to say that Ji Li kept her softness so well that Scarlett often complained My chest is too big. And trouble making chest reduction surgery, but in the end there is no action to pay.

There is nothing to say on TV. The two crews of "Desperate Housewives" and "Gossip Girl" have basically become his **** venues...oh, Jamie will have to wait. It's still a little bit early, but Britney watching, don't worry. Then, a new sitcom was broadcast in September. "The Big Bang Theory" with the heroine Kaiden Cross!

Different from Disney, the media does not always need to think too much about the family-run movies and TV series, so it has developed more comprehensively under their banner. Coupled with the support of Adrian, these have developed very well. Even for the sake of a win-win situation, Adrian gave some TV shows to other TV stations, but it can still be regarded as the top five public TV stations.

For the sake of maintaining this advantage, he still gave a TV series like "The Big Bang Theory", and then let Kaden take the lead role in it, which was already planned. After being taught, Kaideng was very honest. After getting this role, she made full preparations. Whether she made it for her or really worked hard, Adrian was very satisfied, at least The ratings for the first episode were pretty good, and Kayden also got some good reviews.

Okay, let’s not talk about this. Although life is now approaching bland, some things, some things that have been prepared for a long time, come to you inadvertently.

"I was not ready to be a father when Lisa was born, so I chose... to ignore and escape, I admit that this is one of the few bad decisions in my life, but it doesn't explain anything. "Standing under the eaves, Steve Jobs looked at the children playing in the garden in the distance. So the first illegitimate girl born, Lisa, 28, and the other three children looked a bit out of place.

"Yes, there is nothing to explain." Adrian smiled, slightly perfunctory.

Jobs turned his head, and the eyes behind his glasses were staring at him tightly, only a moment later said: "I am not you, Ed, I know how to deal with women by nature."

"Hey, I didn't say anything." Adrian opened his hands and patted his shoulder. "Okay, at least now you have a good relationship with Lisa, and she has become a Peugeot. Girl."

"You wouldn't hit her idea, Ed?" Jobs said coldly, and then he laughed, and Adrian rolled his eyes as if choking.

It's really rare, this arrogant man also has this kind of joke, do you want to help him realize it... or forget it.

"Would you like some drinks, two?" Jobs' wife, Lawrence, came over with a plate-serving maid.

"Not for the time being, dear," Steve Jobs made a decision for him before opening Adrian, and then tilted his head to him, "Come here, Ed, I want to show you something."

"Okay, thank you, Lace." Adrian nodded to realize what nodded, and gave Lawrence a smile, and then followed Jobs all the way to his study.

It's not that he hasn't been alone with him, parties, receptions, White House dinners, Apple's board of directors, etc., but he was invited by Jobs to visit his house. It was the first time that he hadn’t been to his house before, but it was all at parties, and like those receptions, there were many people present to make this guy so solemn, then it would only be that thing.

Sure enough, Jobs quickly took out a small metal-filled rectangular object with smooth chamfers and handed it to Adrian. Even with some psychological preparation, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, glanced at the other party, and pretended to fumble. Just press the power button and then slide to unlock, the expected icon immediately appeared in front of me.

Although there are not many things yet, it is enough to start a new era. Adrian can't help but look up at Steve Jobs. To be honest, compared to a few years ago, he was thinner, his hair became thinner, and his forehead became brighter, just the eyes behind the lens. Still bright, fanatical and with a hint of hope.

"This is a prototype?" Adrian asked. After getting a positive answer, he took a deep breath. "Perfect works are perfect works at this stage. People will like this feeling."

Then, Adrian laughed: "Nokia seems to be unlucky unless they can quickly realize the prospects of smartphones and make changes, but I don't like them."

There was a trace of pride in Jobs' eyes. Put your hands together in front of you, staring at him without blinking, without answering the question.

His expression makes Adrian quite dissatisfied. He raised his eyebrows and decided to make the topic a little deeper: "Since it has reached this point, have you considered making the computer more compact, such as making it very thin and light, about 9 inches in size, without requiring complicated functions, Can I use it in my hand to browse the Internet, take photos, play games, watch movies, and integrate all kinds of entertainment into one computer?"

The astonished expression flickered from Jobs' face, but there was not much movement. Adrian was slightly surprised, but immediately reflected it. There is no doubt that this idea is already in Steve Jobs's mind. Think about it. Although the first generation of the iPad was released four years later, as a true genius, how could he create Apple without such a forward-looking vision? And to pull it from the quagmire and develop to the point where it is today? It's stupid to want to show off in front of him.

After realizing this, Adrian was very depressed, but he was not that easy to give up. His eyes turned and he immediately said: "I saw the icon of itunes, you did not consider integrating it, launching a new online store ?Can buy a variety of games or newspapers and magazines and movies and television."

This time, Jobs finally raised his eyebrows: "Excellent idea."

He smiled with excitement, a look of joy in his eyes, and even flicked a small punch in the air. Obviously this proposal scratched his itch: "We can make it into a platform and a model. Providers of third-party software... I know, it’s the right thing to ask you to come and see."

At this moment, Adrian has understood the purpose of inviting him to come alone, and then he can’t help crying. Predict the future? Isn't this guy a Zen believer? How did you become interested in occultism? Or.........He wants to see his vision, is it so forward-looking?

If it is the latter, it looks just right. It looks like he is now... It seems that he should be very satisfied, which will increase his chance of success!

"What do I need to do?" Adrian immediately asked, "Continue to invest?"

"Compared to this, I hope you can sell some of your shares." Jobs said bluntly.

"Come again, you control freak." Adrian gave him a glance, and since he was familiar with each other, Jobs had more than one idea to beat Apple's shares in his hand.

Even if he was divided into three, he left a part of it, and then sold it to Crowder and the media, and showed his full support for his attitude, he could not make this guy happy. Without him, Adrian is currently the only one on Apple's board of directors who can threaten Jobs if he wants to.

If others want to move Steve Jobs, they have to do a lot of work, but Adrian does not need it. The original investment of more than 100 million took away about 20% of the shares. In fact, many people have tried it, but Adrian refused and notified Jobs, but for Jobs, who is used to controlling everything, this is definitely not a comfortable thing.

"I plan to officially launch it in January or February next year~IndoMTL.com~ I need your help, I need it to let everyone know and accept it as soon as possible." Jobs said his request.

"No problem, because of this good user experience, many people will like it." Adrian nodded without any hesitation, and then guided the topic to ask: "What do you call this?"

"ne." After Jobs gave the answer, he explained it without waiting for him to ask again, "I got it when I bought the d trademark from you."

"Hah, so, did you have this idea early?" Some depressed Adrian laughed dryly.

Jobs spread his hands. Although he didn't speak, he said clearly: yes!

"What about the system?" Adrian continued to ask, "It's as completely closed as it is?"

"Of course, this is Apple's tradition." Jobs said of course.

This made Adrian frown slightly, but he still asked: "You have never considered open source, even if it is partially open source?" (To be continued...)
