King of Hollywood Chapter 66: Capitalist


Chapter 66 The Capitalist

"Preliminary?" Adrian was shocked for a few seconds when he heard this question. Lin Xilei's expression never changed, as if to say a very common thing.彩@虹*文¥学%网m{}Although this is exactly what he wanted to see, she entered the state too quickly, right? After thinking about it for a while, Adrian asked with great interest: "Are there any options?"

Lin Xilei then handed over a folder to him: "I selected some of them first. If these are not what you like, it is not too late to look at the others."

Adrian took over with some doubts and almost sprayed it out after opening. There are four photos on the homepage with delicate art paper, and the clear price tag is marked below. Although it is not stated what the price tag is, this is all Is it time to speak clearly? There are 14 women in a total of 7 pages in the folder, basically all of them have been heard of Adrian in previous lives, so the price is so clear...

"A bit exaggerated, right?" Adrian laughed and raised the folder in his hand. He didn't care about the price of hundreds of thousands of millions. It was just a piece of cake. It's so special.

It seems that the way of picking goods is definitely an insult to those women, but it is also a pleasure to men, just like... the emperor turned the brand in the braided play, and the guy who made this design would try to figure out the man. Psychology.

"Not at all, this is just the price of the invitation to participate." Lin Xilei shrugged.

When she said this, Adrian understood that it was one thing to invite to participate, and it was another thing to be able to go to bed. Of course, after spending so much money, it is only a breeze to get the other party to bed.

"How did you get this?" Adrian asked curiously.

"I think you may need it, so I contacted the old woman who persuaded Zhi Ling before, she is a very good middleman." Lin Xilei continued to shrug, looking at the folder with a complicated look.

Middleman? Adrian raised his eyebrows, then immediately understood, smiled and stopped asking. Then, he noticed her look. At first, she was a little puzzled, but quickly responded, and then chuckled in her heart. If she didn't get the action of the agent, she was afraid that the name would be on it.

"Frankly speaking, it's very appetizing to me, but..." Adrian wants to say this gesture.

"This transaction was conducted in a very secretive situation, the other party is a senior person, and I warned her and agreed to pay an extra amount to shut her up, I think you should not mind, right? "Lin Xilei said that there was a pause here, and she smiled when she watched Adrian. "Zhi Ling doesn't mind."

Adrian showed a surprised look. The reason why he was worried was because he wanted to consider Lin Zhiling's image. If another woman came over, it would be clear to tell others that Lin Zhiling was kept by him? Although this matter will be discovered sooner or later, it is a bit late. Since Lin Zhiling is always waiting for him with all his heart and soul, he does not mind standing in her place and thinking about her.

But now... A little thought, Adrian knew Shuanglin's plan and suddenly shook his head with a smile.

"Unsatisfied? Then continue or not?" Lin Xilei sighed softly.

"Which one do you think is good?" Adrian smiled and pushed the folder back, and Lin Xilei immediately showed an unexpected look. Compared to Charlize and Ivanka, she was still not quiet enough, so she could only do These are.

"Well, in the "Flying Dragon in the Sky" broadcast by the last year's TV, one of them became a popular idol with two horns. It is called the eight o'clock in Taiwan. According to your taste in Japan, you should know Like." Lin Xilei browsed a few pages of documents and jumped out of a photo and handed it over, "And it's about the same size as Zhiling."

"You really know a lot." Adrian praised it, and sighed again, if Ivanka could not afford the girders, if she was not a Chinese, it would be good to be a life secretary.

"Then it's her." He flicked the photo, with a pretty face, with a smile, very young and sweet, "Miss Jia Jingwen."

Jia Jingwen is a native Taiwanese girl. She had appeared in some films of China TV as a girl, but she graduated from the Beijing Film Academy, and her father did not enter the entertainment industry until her business failed. It didn't go smoothly in the first few years. It wasn't noticed until it appeared in the Taiwanese drama "The Seventh Couple-Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" in 1999, and then it was very popular with last year's "Flying Dragon".

Such a woman is easily tempted. Although the middleman did not reveal the identity of Adrian, she easily persuaded her. Then, still that sentence, have already participated, is it still necessary to pretend? Especially the target is the Hollywood media tycoon. She was a little nervous at first, but Adrian relaxed her in a few words, and then looked at him with an unspeakable excitement.

This kind of gaze Adrian has been seen many times, so there is no slight burden when pressing her on the bed, and enjoy it with Jia Jingwen’s flattery. Of course, there is definitely no shortage of carnival in the four-person line. Lin Zhiling does not mind referring to this, and she has joined, will Lin Xilei escape?

Jia Jingwen apparently hasn’t played these, and at first he resisted a little, but after a little struggling, he obeyed, and then gradually started to take the initiative, but even so, Adrian is just for fun. Not to mention the various things about her in the memory, it is enough to have two Asians on the collection shelf. Lin Xilei was out of curiosity and wanted to find a suitable broker for Lin Zhiling. The investment is very cost-effective. As for Liu Yufei, one is out of want to verify whether the various deeds about their mother and daughter in the memory are true, and the other is to consider Zhang Qiu of the Harry Potter series-the original version is too bad.

And so far, Asians have too much collection, and the few good characters would have been divided into more, and Hollywood's attitude of discriminating against Asians cannot be changed by a media mogul. So this morning, when Jia Jingwen was still asleep, Adrian told Lin Xilei that it would be like this in the future, and it would be fine to play with it. He would not take it back.

Adrian knows Shuanglin’s idea. Like Lin Xilei’s recommendation of Liu Yufei last time, they want to join forces to fight for more benefits. In fact, there is absolutely no need to do this, as mentioned above, but there is not much to share.

"For me, it is enough for you to have two of you here in Taiwan." Adrian said, looking at the door on the other side. Soon, Lin Zhiling walked out in a bathrobe and wiped her wet hair.

There is no doubt that last night was a crazy four-person walk, otherwise Jia Jingwen will not be able to get up now, of course, this is also related to her being played by three people in turn.

"So you don't need to worry about that much, you understand? Just keep the situation now." After Lin Zhiling sat in her arms, Adrian said, holding her chin, while reaching out and pinching on Lin Xilei's face. A handful.

"Got it." Lin Zhiling said softly. Although Lin Xilei still had a faint smile, she had an obvious relaxed expression.

The trip to Taiwan ended like this, leaving Lin Xilei to accompany Lin Zhiling to cope with the propaganda of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and Adrian returned to Los Angeles. After a two-day break, I went to the UK on the route of Los Angeles-New York-London. This is a must-do every year, but Emma will never be satisfied.

"It's too late, why can't it be earlier?!" Although Adrian was very happy to see herself, Emma Jr. still waved her arms and asked fiercely.

"Okay, okay, my esteemed Queen, because of my late arrival, it has caused huge losses to you. I apologize for this, and would like to make some compensation." Adrian crouched in front of her, posing There was a serious expression in sight of the Queen's posture, which immediately drew laughter from many people including her aunt.

Little Emma couldn’t help but grin, glaring at him unhappily, but Adrian carelessly pinched her face and smiled and shook it for several times. Little Emma immediately opened her hands and opened her mouth wide, doing viciously The appearance of "I'm going to bite you" did not have the wit and calmness that Hermione should have, and suddenly aroused laughter.

"Okay, anyway, I'm still here, can't you give me a smiley face?" Adrian twitched his hands.

"Want me to give you a smiley face? That's not an easy task." Little Emma said with her arms narrowed and looked at him, followed by a lot of requests, even in the future. In the day, she used a private plane to take her over the whole of Western Europe and parts of Eastern Europe. The unexpected request was that Adrian actually agreed.

"Honestly tell me, Ed, why would you agree to be so refreshing? If it were before, you would have to cut at least half of the conditions?" After having a good time strolling by Lake Meralen in Stockholm , Wearing a thick velvet jacket with gloves and earmuffs, little Emma indented in the arms of Adrian sitting on the bench and asked, and giggled to reach for his cheek, as if hiding another underneath people.

"Because after the release of "Harry Potter and the Magic Stone" at the end of this year, it is impossible for you to imagine such unbridled play now." Adrian said, rubbing her head.

"Oh? Is it so powerful?" Little Emma blinked her eyes.

"Trust me, as a fairly good director, my judgment is generally not wrong." Adrian shrugged and said in a "modest" tone.

"Not bad?" Little Emma hummed at him with her arms akimbo. "If Director Miracle says he can only be pretty good, should other directors commit shame and commit suicide?"

"Then you still ask!" Adrian immediately grabbed her for a while, and the little guy giggled while struggling.

After a while, the two talents calmed down. After taking a breath, little Emma hugged Adrian, put her head on his shoulder, and said in a satisfied tone: "I love you, Ed."

Listening to her affectionate words, Adrian frowned slightly, but quickly recovered her calmness and gently patted her back: "I love you too, Emma."

In addition to visiting Emma and playing with her, coming to London is also one of the things he has to do to ask about the progress of Harry Potter and the Magic Stone. Basically, there is only some finishing work left in the movie. Except for the opening and ending of the film, everything else has been completed. Adrian selected a few pieces of the footage in the London studio. Frankly speaking, Chris? Columbus did a very good job. It's a worthy director who is famous for making a family carnival movie. So the next Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets should also be on the agenda.

"You have to give me time to rest, Ed. I haven't been with my wife and children for a long time." Columbus sighed, rather reluctantly.

"Yes, I know, Chris, I see your hard work in your eyes," Adrian persuaded with a smile, "but you also know that children always grow fast, especially around ten years old. Children, if they delay too long, the first part will still look like a child. The second part will say that it’s okay to be 13 or 4 years old. This will give people a sense of disharmony."

He said that he paused here again: "Besides, I did not plan to let the crew start shooting now, as long as it is not turned on before July, you have enough time to spend with your family."

Columbus still has a hesitant look. He agrees with Adrian in his heart. This is the case with the children’s series. If you don’t hurry up, once the children grow up, they can’t shoot the original kind. feel. And he also likes the "Harry Potter" series of novels very much, otherwise he would not move his family to London for "Harry Potter and the Magic Stone".

But the problem is that this is a huge project. Columbus had a clear understanding of the selection and production of the first hand. He had to ask for the shooting, production, and post-production, not to mention that Rowling was still nearby. Anything related to the script trend Her problems must be solicited, it is almost impossible to make such a film in less than a year. There are currently four novels in the whole series. Listening to Rowling said that there may be a total of seven novels. God, do you want him to stay in London for 7 years or longer?

The same thing is done too much. Even if you like it, you will feel tired. After the initial freshness has passed, the children in the family have a lot of words about their father either in the studio or in the studio for a long time. These All make him very contradictory.

Adrian can also be seen naturally, so I did not force him: "Well, you have read all four of Chris’s and Joe’s current novels, and they have become more adult since the third part, so you only The first two parts need to be directed. I think this should be no problem."

"Okay, you are the boss." Columbus agreed after sighing.

Indeed, the more mature the whole series, the more family-like directors like Columbus are not suitable-this is why some people in the previous life always said that the first two films are the best, because there are enough Childlike.

Of course, it’s also a problem that the director is not suitable, but after the production of "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" is completed, the little actors will basically be finalized, and then the later ones can be slow. Slow production. Adrian believes that as long as the director and Rowling are willing to listen to their own opinions, the latter parts will be at least better than those of the previous life. Speaking of it, several little actors also performed very well. Little Emma didn't need to talk about it. Even Rowling praised her. As long as she came to the camera, she was Hermione. And Eric, who plays Harry? Reese and George playing Ron? Sanders also performed very well. Probably as long as children grow up in a healthy environment, they will have an indescribable aura.

Like little Emma, ​​although she suffered such a big disaster, and her aunt inevitably drifted emotionally after giving birth to her child, but Adrian as her emotional sustenance, in her growth Has played an important role, so she is still growing very healthy-oh, of course, it would be better if she was not so precocious and too old-fashioned.

Since Columbus agreed, the preparation of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" can be officially launched. With the experience of preparing "Harry Potter and the Magic Stone", most of the affairs can be left to others to do , He can safely leave the time to his family, as long as it is turned on before July. It should be enough to shoot for half a year, which is not enough, Adrian can also let "Harry Potter and the Magic Stone" be released a little later-originally scheduled for the Christmas file at the end of the year.

The reason for this is to avoid the situation where the young actors stop filming and request a new contract after the box office sale. This kind of thing is normal, no matter who it is, the first time the actor's remuneration will not be high. Once it becomes popular, it is inevitable to request an increase in remuneration. Although Universal's remuneration for them is relatively good, and it is also stipulated in the contract that it will gradually increase in weight, appearing in the second part will take more than the first part, but it is still not enough to watch in front of the high-priced movie box office.

So this kind of thing will definitely happen, and most of them will also be supported by the old actors of the crew. As a capitalist~IndoMTL.com~Adrian will naturally do whatever it takes to make more profit-good Well, this is a joke, he thinks more about it, once the conversation is over, the shooting will be put on hold, and then rushing to work before will be in vain.

More importantly, once the delay is too long, the little actor grows a lot longer, and if it is inconsistent with the previous picture taken, it will be remade as much as possible, which is extremely wasteful.

But it is impossible without long-term negotiations. If the series is only two or three, he can prepare a high-pay contract in advance, as short as possible to waste time, but the problem is "Harry Potter" "There will be seven episodes in the series without any surprises. If you meet the actors at the beginning and ask for extra pay, you will be given generous conditions. What if they have a regular appetite? Of course, because of the high box office of the "Harry Potter" series, such negotiations are inevitable in the future, but the dominance must be in your own hands, just like giving the six starring "Friends" a rising pay.

In short, it is very necessary to complete the filming of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" before the release of "Harry Potter and the Magic Stone"... Well, from this point of view, Adrian is still a capitalist.
