King of Hollywood Chapter 76: Continuous
>Chapter 76 Continues
Las Vegas under the night is the most beautiful. Although in many big cities, life begins only after the night falls, but only Las Vegas matches this word best. M addicts who are obsessed with gambling and forget their time, high-spirited high-rollers, hot strippers, people can find everything they want to find here, and of course, there are countless evils, so "" The scene is here.
The enchantment of the night also causes the fatigue of the day. Even if Las Vegas during the day is not different from most cities in the United States, there is one less night to be frantic and unscrupulous, but this is also suitable for some Things, like making movies.
"Let the prop team check again, this time no more problems, I don’t think everyone likes to repeat very simple shots." On the edge of the set, the director with a baseball cap is so telling the assistants around him A little further away, the staff is checking the background of the blue curtain, and apparently will synthesize a picture that cannot be actually taken in the later period.
"Don't you think it is more appropriate to move these lenses to the studio for shooting? Although the real shooting is more impressive, it will be repeated if you make a mistake." Adrian and other Soderbo who watched all this Ge asked when he was free.
"It's rare to come to the Las Vegas casino for field shooting, why not make full use of it?" Soderbergg smiled, pushing the glasses on the bridge of his nose.
In general, large and small casinos in Las Vegas will not allow film and television crews to shoot in the field. The specific reason is unknown. The most widely circulated statement is that the casino does not want guests who come here to gamble. Being shot with frustration or pain will affect their effectiveness. However, this is not absolute. As long as you can find the right person, Soderbergh has a friend who works in the casino. Under his needle, there is finally a casino that allows the shooting in the field, but it cannot be affected. They make sound, so the time must be at least after 2 midnight.
This is the case with Rao. When I filmed at the entrance of the casino the night before, I was complained by the casino because of the delay of more than an hour. However, there is a gimmick in the live-action shooting in the Las Vegas casino, and this complaint is nothing.
Yes, I was shooting Adrian's original promise to Soderbergh, remake to the "Eleven Rohan" of the 1950s Italian film, and asked him to find a lot of star actors to give the green light. Of course, the membership list must be changed, George? Clooney, Don? Chandel or Julia? Roberts is indispensable, but two important partners have become Dennis? Knight and... Jaquen? Phoenix.
"Frankly speaking, Jaquen, I have always been very sorry. If Scott chose you to play in Komodos, maybe there will be no William? Dafu on the Oscar nomination list for a few days." Adrian Said very seriously.
"Ah, are you so optimistic about me, Ed?" Jie Kun? Phoenix was a little surprised.
"Of course, your three brothers are all outstanding actors." Adrian said with a glance at Rui Fan who had just arrived in the crew? Phoenix.
In the original "Gladiator ", the role of the Roman emperor Komodos, who loved to fight, should be Jacques? Phoenix, and then he was nominated for Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his outstanding performance, but unfortunately Adrian recommended Russell to Scott? Cloe did not ask again after starring in the actor, but the villain was replaced by other actors. Naturally, Jack Kun’s nomination for Best Supporting Actor disappeared.
As for the current version of the "Gladiator " villain Komodos is...um...Brad? Pete, after working hard for a few years after "Interview with the Vampire", after appearing in a few movies with a handsome face, he is basically a first-line star, but after trying to transform into a acting school, he has repeatedly hit the wall, film critic He doesn't seem to like him very much, and the characters are always unflattering, so much that he has caused many movies. For example, although his performance in "Gladiator " is not bad, it is basically at the middle level, but most commentators think that his existence is entirely against Russell? Clo
It's really a shame, but he shouldn't get married to "Rachel" and then divorce, and then look for the pornographic emperor's later love run.
"Thank you, but you don't think..." Jekun? Phoenix was gesturing at this time what he wanted to ask.
"So what?" Adrian smiled immediately. "Anyway, we got all the nominations for supporting actors. Isn't it better to get all the nominations for supporting actors?"
"So, should I say regret now?" Jekun spread his hand.
"Obviously, yes, you still have to follow me behind, Jakeun." Rui Fan said with a smile beside him, he always gave people a sense of sunshine when he was joking.
"Please, Ruifan, I just said that inadvertently, you don't have to mention it at any time." Jekun couldn't help rolling his eyes.
"Okay, don’t say this," Adrian smiled and interrupted the lift of the two brothers. "This year there is a commercial production, action class, tough guy agent. You need a young and promising actor to pick the beam, you two. Who will come?"
"We?" Jay Kun was a little surprised, his fingers kept going back and forth between himself and Rui Fan.
"Of course, I don't want to hear things like rejection, either Ruifan or Jiekun." Adrian's fingers are also going back and forth between them.
"It sounds like there is no choice. Are you really Ed? Or is someone else posing?" Rui Fan showed a suspicious look.
"Don't try to get the topic off, Rui Fan, and it's not bad for you to appear appropriately in some commercial movie roles." Adrian waved his hand.
"Couldn't there be another suitable person?" Jie Kun asked on the pretext.
"Silver is fine too, if another five or six years later," Adrian cut off their words. "In short, don't talk nonsense with me. It must be one of you. Discuss it yourself."
After he finished, he turned to George? Clooney walked over them, not bargaining with the Phoenix brothers.
"Hey, George, how are you feeling, working with Steven and so many people." When he was talking to Clooney, he also greeted Chandler and Dennis who were standing together.
"There is no doubt that Steven is an excellent director, and he is very good at grasping the rhythm. It is a pleasant thing to work with him." Clooney is very cautious in speaking. After all, he and Adrian still visit Dennis and the Philippines. The Niske brothers are so familiar, and Adrian is also a famous director, and in the current Oscar is the opponent with Soderberg, so it is necessary to speak carefully.
Adrian doesn’t have so many scruples: "Yes, he has the highest chance of getting the best director Xiao Jinren next month."
"Do you really think so?" Only Julia can ask this question now.
"Of course, "Drug Network" is a very realistic movie, and the technique of three-line narrative is used just right. Although Scott has also done a good job, realistic subjects are more likely to be favored, aren't they?" Adrian laughs He said, "Of course, the best movie will never be given to him."
"Are you sure you're talking big words?" Julia raised her arms.
"Huh?" Adrian narrowed her eyes and looked at her carefully. "Who made you upset, Julie?"
"Of course not." Julia raised her chest with a smile, but her eyes unconsciously glanced to the other side, about ten feet away, Leah? Desang is helping the props organize things while chatting with Zeta Jones from time to time.
Adrian had to shrug, and Leah was arranged by him to work for the crew of "Eleven Arhats" immediately after returning home, which meant that her commitment was valid. But Julia didn’t give her a good look. For her, playing **** with Monica and Zeta Jones is one thing, but being watched or eavesdropping playing **** is another. Going on.
However, Lia didn’t care. She was honest and hard-working, and she knew how to protect herself. Although the bodyguard’s investigation was not professional, Adrian gained some information. It is not difficult to analyze related things. For Leah, leaving Las Vegas is her primary goal and her biggest wish, and her next step is to become famous, but now she encounters Adrian, and the desire to become famous is probably more. Adrian’s name is a little more inquiring. Will know.
Although the way of meeting is a little awkward or even bad, it doesn’t mean that she can’t work hard, so it’s the situation now. It is a pity that Leah is destined to be disappointed. After confirming that it is her, Adrian has arranged for her the future. As I said before, even if it is Adrian, it cannot change the situation of Chinese Americans in Hollywood, and he does not plan to let her go to Japan to develop. If she has not met Liu Li and Liu Yufei’s mother and daughter, maybe she can let her try the next one. The role of Qiu, and then paved a way, but now...
This profession will suit her very well. In his mind, Adrian, who outlined Leah's uniform in the future, thought so, but two seconds later he collected his thoughts and turned to Clooney to digress: "Speaking of that, George may also try to be a director, Maybe a great work, just like Clint Eastwood."
"Nice suggestion, I will consider it, thank you." Clooney nodded after holding his chin for a while.
"By the way, if available, we can also collaborate on a movie." Adrian suddenly said again.
"It's my pleasure." Clooney's eyes lit up. After the Oscar nomination list came out, no fool would refuse the director's invitation, so he added another sentence: "No matter what type?"
"Including song and dance films?" Adrian laughed. This question made Clooney flustered, but immediately answered: "No problem."
Okay, no problem, then Adrian is also okay. Originally, this matter was also possible at other times. It’s all in Hollywood. You can see it at any time if you want, but since it’s just happening now, make sure It doesn't matter.
He came to Las Vegas mainly to explore the class Julia and understand the progress of "Eleven Arhats", by the way to increase the relationship between Zeta Jones and Julia-effective, at least that night Zeta Jones was in Constantly comfort Julia. Despite the trouble with Leah? Desang's accident, but the purpose has basically been achieved, and he has communicated with Clooney, and it is almost time to go back...Oh, I have to remind some guy.
"Turn on at the end of the month, so you'd better adjust the schedule now. "Eleven Arhats" must not be closed at that time." Adrian said to Dennis after leaving the studio at the end of the shooting.
"Is this arrangement too tight, Ed, although "Life and Death Sniper" has ended for almost three months, but "The Expendables2" is already in preparation, maybe I can't wait for "I Am Sam" to close the mirror. It's unavoidable to start shooting..." Dennis was a bit difficult to gesture. Indeed, no matter how good the actor is, playing all three roles in a row without interruption will feel strenuous.
"Really, so next time I should arrange three of them for action characters." Adrian laughed badly.
"Okay, I can handle it," Dennis immediately raised his hands. "Since I can handle the two... three at home, then I can handle these three roles."
He raised his eyebrows. Although there were some surprises, Adrian didn’t speak. Even if he really brought Jordana home, it was his business. There was no need to make it so clear. I don’t want to beat him, so Adrian just patted him on the shoulder: "Work hard, Dan, you know, the film academy likes mentally handicapped characters, so "I am Sam" is best released this year. Be careful , But I found a smart little girl to play with you, be careful not to be looked down upon."
After things in Las Vegas are over, Adrian finally returned to Los Angeles, and the Oscar nomination list has been fully fermented at this time, and there are more and more invitations for interviews rushing to his office.
"If you do not respond again, Ed, the invitation letters will flood my office." His current female secretary said so.
"If you have time, Ed, how about going to watch or go to the show?" his former female secretary said so.
The guys actually let Charlize do public relations, which is a bunch of fools, but Adrian still agreed, anyway, it is his own industry, and he is happy to increase the voice of Charlize. However, the interview should be placed in the second place, because an interview has been decided before this, that is, the cover interview of Time.
Warner has made a lot of effort for this interview. The best reporters have sent two of them. The preparation work is very detailed. Almost every few hours, Ivanka will be contacted for an exchange opinion. This is very solemn, but in Adrian's view, it is completely unnecessary. Basically, he may know what the interview may have.
It is nothing more than how to enter the entertainment industry, how to get to where it is today, what is your opinion on the media industry, etc. Of course, there may be more questions about media than other entertainment magazines or programs, After all, Time is a comprehensive publication, and the media that is acquiring at&tadband is already the largest media group in the world.
Although the media is not listed, it is not difficult to estimate assets through its series of subsidiaries. As early as the beginning of 2000, media with tbs and media already had close to 60 billion assets. Now It also acquired at&tadband, which has great development prospects, and it is not difficult to soar to 80 billion, plus the benefits have been good. It has entered the top 40 in the Fortune Global 500 rankings. For media groups , This is already a very high position.
The Adrian with a 38% stake and Crowder with a 15% stake have nearly 30 billion and nearly 15 billion net worth, respectively, among the top 10 and top 40 of the Forbes ranking list. Of course, If you add some hidden property that can't be found through legitimate channels, these two rankings must be much higher.
"I have heard such a statement that I am the right brain of the media, responsible for perceptual and intuitive thinking, and Claude is the left brain of the media, responsible for abstract generalization thinking. This statement is in a sense Correct, because I rarely deal with specific management matters, and Claude rarely participates in general decision-making. But in another sense, it is wrong. Few deals with little participation does not mean that I cannot participate. In management, I may have the right decision, and Claude will have pertinent opinions in decision-making. When we have contradictions, we will sit down and discuss carefully until we convince or be persuaded. The media can rise. The biggest factor is that Claude and I were able to cooperate intimately. Thank God, we grew up together, we started a business together, and we established the media together." In the final interview, Adrian was so generous.
I have to say that the public likes this kind of inspirational story, so after this issue of "Time" was released, the sales volume rose by several percentage points like the original "Vanity Fair". Some people even joked that if it is changed into a movie, it will definitely be a part. Quite a good inspirational work. Some booksellers also tried to contact Adrian in the hope that he could consider an autobiography. Although there are publishing companies under the media, the opportunities have always been won.
It's a pity ~IndoMTL.com~Adrian has no intention of autobiography at present. Besides, for some reason, the autobiography now may become a joke.
As for the comments of the people around this report, both the godfather and the uncle thought it was good, and the women didn't care much, only Claude had a whisper.
"Help, Ed, next time don't use an interview that is like saying a homosexual tone." Leaving the Adrian bust of "Time" on the desk, Claude said in a mocking tone.
"You should go to "Time" instead of me about this problem, they wrote the report." Adrian laughed.
Because there are a lot of people who follow the report, and Adrian praises their buddies in it, some **** forums on the Internet will inevitably have delusions to make various guesses. If it is not Adrian’s **** name is loud enough , God knows where it will be exaggerated.
Okay, time to pull back, these are the things after the report is released, before this, the nomination list of continuous fermentation is still the favorite of entertainment reporters.
