King of Hollywood Chapter 8: 1 free chat
"Can... explain?" Rachel was a bit confused.
"You are charming, Rachel ," Adrian said in a sincere tone, his eyes are very clear, "You have a completely different temperament from other actresses, an indescribable book atmosphere, which gives you a different kind of The charm of this is both a good thing and a bad thing. The good thing is that you are very suitable for acting as women with strong academic temperament, such as female scholars or female researchers, and the bad thing is that you will be limited to this role when it is difficult to break through. Simply put, the road will be very narrow."
"This should only be your inference, right?" Rachel asked with raised eyebrows. Of course she would not agree with Adrian's opinion, but it was not easy to directly refute, so she had to ask.
"Yes, so I regret it. If you are willing to play that role, you may be able to hone your acting skills and make your play wider." Adrian sighed, "The movie you are shooting now Not much, the plasticity is still very strong."
The surprised Rachel was inexplicably slightly moved, but at the same time a little vigilant, squeezing his lips and not answering. Adrian didn't say anything, just watched as something interesting appeared to her.
After a while like this, Rachel , who was uncomfortable with him, was about to be reminded of a slight cough, and suddenly heard Adrian dreamlikely say: "If it is Anthony Mingla to direct..."
Although the sound was very light, the Rachel with its ears still heard, and the heartbeat suddenly went a little faster. Although she hasn’t been to Hollywood for a long time, she still knows more about Adrian and naturally knows what it means.
"Are you talking about it?" Rachel scratched his head casually and asked in a casual tone.
"Oh, no, it's nothing." Adrian, who had recovered, smiled and lowered his head to drink black tea.
Rachel was stunned. Although he wanted to say something, he only sighed in his heart after a moment of silence. A sense of loss came into being. It doesn't matter, he definitely has other considerations. Rachel said comfortingly to himself, and did not let this feeling of loss show. She didn't realize that her emotions had been completely controlled by the other party.
"Well, you might as well try a character," Adrian suddenly slaps lightly, "but it's a supporting role with little weight, and it's a commercial movie."
After a pause, he added a sentence: "Although, I still hope you can go all out, okay?"
Rachel ’s breathing has become slightly more rapid. Of course, she’s clever won’t hear the implied meaning. The difference in her mentality made her unable to speak for a while, and she only appeared after a long recovery. My hand is being held by Adrian and nodded seriously: "I will."
=================================
Cracking knocks from time to time on the large ring, Claude fell to the ground in embarrassment, with his armguard arms together in front of him, rainy fists were constantly falling on it.
"Look at you, Crow, I can't tell whether Thomas is your sparring partner or you are Thomas' sparring partner." Standing under the ring, wearing shorts with a sturdy upper body and a white towel on his shoulders Adrian said with a sneer. WWw.YZUU point m
"It's easy to say... why don't you come and try" Crowder shouted strenuously, suppressed to no avail.
After more than ten minutes, it was suppressed to Adrian on the ground, and it was Claude who laughed under the ring.
"Hey, man, stand up and fight back. I always lie on the ground and can only be beaten passively." Claude said leisurely while drinking water, then exchanged Adrian with a roar: "Shut up for me, gram Lao."
"Where did you find this guy?" Adrian asked his buddy like this after coming down from the ring. He gasped and shook his arm that had been beaten. Although he had done enough protection, he was on the other side. There are still some bruises under the heavy punch. However, this guy's strength and skills are well grasped, and his vision is accurate, and he will not overthrow the key, so the sturdy body is very flexible, it is really rare, but the shortcomings are not good words, I have never said it from beginning to end Three sentences.
"Knowing how powerful he is?" Although Crowde handed over the towel, Claude still did not forget to ridicule.
"It's really powerful, but don't forget, I insisted on it for a much longer time than you, and I can't use my legs because of the rules, otherwise it's not necessarily who wins or loses." Adrian took the towel and wiped it face.
"Come on, Ed, this is not free fighting." Claude shook his head. "Don't you have fallen so far that you dare not admit defeat? This is not a big deal."
"Hey, I didn't refuse to admit defeat, just you think so, by the way, you can cover up the fact that you were knocked down in two hits." Adrian gave him an elbow with a smile, "Okay, go take a shower, Don't be beaten anymore."
Turn on the spray head, and the water with the right temperature immediately scoured the body, and Adrian stretched his arms and breathed out for a long time. Although I just played a few times on the training ring, my body did not have any strains or sprains, but it was a bit miserable, but this is normal.
Adrian exercises regularly, and has the guidance of a professional dietitian and fitness coach. The figure is quite good. The strong chest and abdominal muscles are scattered with masculine beauty, which complements the height of 6 feet inches. The women who went to bed with him, whether it was Monica, Julia, Drew, Cameron, said that his figure was very sexy. Private doctors also said that his body is much better than ordinary people, as the saying goes "he is as strong as a cow". But these are just to allow him to show evenly, and it must be a lot worse than a person like Thomas who exercises completely for boxing.
"What do you think, to those three teams." Claude, wrapped in a towel, came out from the other side with his head wiped.
"My opinion? Of course it was sold, do you want to keep it?" Adrian shrugged.
"I think so too, but Ted may not agree. This is after all his hard work, and the base camp for TBs is in Atlanta." Claude said in his clothes.
There are many things that TBs belong to. In addition to the net and the new line, there are many other things. For example, two or three film production companies, Claude is planning to merge them. Then there are three teams, the Atlanta Hawks, one of the 7 oldest nBa qualified teams, the Atlanta Warriors who won the World Championship in Baseball, and the Atlanta Flames, who played mediocre in the hockey league.
It’s not surprising that big group companies will more or less have one or two teams, some because of the boss’s hobbies, and some for the company’s show. After all, the major league of several ball sports-nFL, mLB and nBa or nhL have extensive influence in the United States. It's just that the three teams owned by TBs have some value in addition to the older Eagles in the nBa qualification. The remaining two are almost optional, plus they are in Atlanta, whether it is Adrian or Claude. There is no interest in operating.
"Do we need to consider Ted's opinion?" Adrian asked rhetorically.
"At least at this stage it must be considered." Claude sighed.
"Okay, then the Hawks can keep, but the two teams must be sold," Adrian said after thinking about it, "Ted Ted, we will have better in the future."
"Why, you already have a goal?" Claude showed an interesting look.
"Our base camp is Los Angeles. Naturally, we have to consider the Los Angeles team." Adrian spread its hands.
"Really? The Clippers or the Lakers? If it's the latter, Jerry Bass might not sell it." Claude thought.
"Not now," Adrian shook his head. "Our goal now is to seize all opportunities to expand and gather resources to ensure the company's exhibition goes smoothly-that's why I think the three teams should be sold."
There are major things. It is the most important thing to build your own media empire. It is the right way to wait for this goal to be almost completed before considering other things. Jerry Bath doesn't sell? Will he really not sell if the heavy money hits? Besides, here in the United States, nFL is the most popular sport.
"Oh, there is not so good news." Claude, already wearing pants and shirt, changed the subject.
"Let's listen." Adrian, also in his compassionate shirt, glanced at him.
"Whether it is Warner or not, it is a direct rejection." Claude shrugged with regret.
"Really?" Adrian frowned, and Warner's refusal was also expected, but it was somewhat surprising that it was so direct. It was originally thought that it became its subsidiary company after the merger of Time and Warner, and it has not yet fully expanded. It should be a good talk. It seems that it is wrong.
"What is your opinion?" Adrian asked Claude.
"My opinion?" Claude smiled. "Remember, TBs also has a home and similar premium cable TV, but it is usually based on sports programs, and TV shows are bought from other TV stations. Of."
"You mean TnT?" Adrian recalled, "I'm afraid it's inappropriate. You also said that they are mainly sports events, which is very different from homemade TV movies and TV series."
"Then we will reorganize it according to the model, just like the broker company is reorganized according to the caa model." Claude said immediately, "I can roughly guess why you need it, Ed, but I I think that as long as the TnT reorganization is smooth, the same effect can be achieved."
Adrian stopped working, sat on a bench for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, you can try it."
If you can really reorganize the mode of TnT, it is naturally better. The mastery of his hands is nothing more than the idea of several high-quality TV series, as long as it is copied as much as possible, the TV station broadcasts it. no problem.
"In addition, there are still some things about Marvel Comics."
"Oh, don’t tell me this is in trouble, Crow."
"Of course not," Claude laughed. "This is good news. It's easy to acquire Marvel Comics, but we can wait and see, according to their current embarrassment, another half a year. It will be easier in a year."
"Sounds good," Adrian smiled. "Well, you can do it. Anyway, you are responsible for it, as long as... don't make any mistakes."
The two dressed and walked out of the fitness room to the garden. The maid had prepared afternoon tea.
"How is Milan Max?" Adrian asked after taking a sip of coffee.
"There are two companies that have spared no effort to compete, and the Weinstein brothers are naturally happy to watch a movie on the side," Claude shrugged. "But there are already signs of relief on Disney's side."
"A sign of relief?" Adrian could not help raising an eyebrow. "Michael Eisner is so easy to give up something that is about to come. This is not like his style. Or, this is just the smoke from Disney. ?"
"The possibility of smoke is about o% to %, Michael Eisner’s energy seems to be on other things, and, you know, his deputy Frank Will at the beginning of this month The crashed body died," Claude said analytically. "So it is possible to give up Miramax."
Adrian thinks carefully, this is indeed possible. The things that originally belonged to Miramax have been divided by him. Correspondingly, in the eyes of other companies, its value has also dropped a lot. Plus Disney has talked about this year since last year. As for things, Eisner's abandonment of Miramax is also expected.
"But I have an idea," Claude said at the time. "A somewhat bold and even crazy idea."
"Really? Let's hear it." Adrian suddenly became interested, and allowed Claude to speak so solemnly, and also used the words "bold" and "crazy", which would definitely surprise him of.
However, to his disappointment, Claude shook his head: "No, no, this idea is not mature now, I need more information and intelligence, and... I also need to observe things. "
"It's so mysterious, it must be very important." Adrian asked tentatively, but Claude just smiled and said no more. In this case, he will not ask anymore, and Claude will inform him if he wants to pay anyway.
Then they talked about other topics, such as merging the TBs production companies into the new line or Bosworth. Claude wants to merge into the new line, so as to divide the remaining equity of the new line president Robert Shay. After the new line is acquired by TBs, it still retains independent management rights, but the current reputation of the new line is not as good as Miramax , And it is enough for the media company to have a film company that maintains independent management rights.
However, after careful consideration, Adrian expressed opposition. First, the production companies under TBs are not large in scale. Even if they merged with the new line, they may not be able to be thinned. Second, the original line belongs to the new line. The signature horror film "Scream" has been sold out in advance by Adrian and sold to Universal, and its first *-level production "Seven Deadly Sins" has now been drummed up, so it has been a second-line film company for a long time. , Even if the problem is not too serious.
In addition, Robert Shea is also a very capable person, and it is also good to be able to get around it. Moreover, if Adrian's vision plan is successful, it will be easier to divide its shareholding.
After spending a rather pleasant afternoon at Crowder’s house, after exchanging opinions on these work matters, Adrian stayed almost in Los Angeles. David Finch didn't have much opinion on Gwyneth's role as actress, and even praised a few words, but if you want to start shooting, you have to wait for a while. The preliminary preparations are not so easy to complete. Also in preparation is "Little Women", which is slightly faster, after all, Adrian had already set the production schedule for this movie last year.
Also, the role for Rachel ? Vichy is the Sarah Davis in the upcoming "Spyware", a female agent who was killed by Renault outside the Prague embassy. Although the film production rights are handed over to Cruz's production company, how can the world have lunch for nothing? In the selection of actors and other things, Bosworth has the main say, and Tom Cruise did not say anything. Although he is not very smart, he also knows the rules.
Additionally, the entire team is basically the original cast, except for his wife Nicole Kidman as Claire Phelps, Rachel Vizi as Sara Davis, and Anthony Hopkins as The villain ss Jim Phelps-God knows how the head of the company who used to be a producer persuaded the old man, Adrian can make a stunned for a long time. In short, Cruise is quite satisfied with such a team, and naturally will not say much.
The reason for this arrangement of Rachel ~IndoMTL.com~ is mainly because there is no better role yet. Although Adrian finally thought of two suitable scripts, they all belong to things that do not even have an outline. It will be impossible to shoot at one and a half times, so I simply use this character to leave it here.
Rachel is different from Gwyneth, a woman who grew up in Hollywood. She graduated from Cambridge and she is very smart and a little arrogant. This can be seen from coming to him now. Therefore, it is not easy to get her completely, nor can she be tempted by Gwyneth. But as long as she is at the Hollywood show, she can't escape Adrian's palm. Smart women always think about many things, but they are more likely to get lost if they think more, and then...
After leaving Crowder, Adrian drove to Julia’s hidden cottage, and after spending a good night with her, he flew back to Alabama on a private jet the next day. Although there are still some things in Los Angeles that I haven’t had time to deal with, such as meeting the tempting goblin on the pretext of "Little Women", or seeing what Blanchett is doing, etc., the shooting of "Forrest Gump" It is also a very important thing.
It’s okay, I’m going to return to Los Angeles after the shooting. I’ll say it later, and I’ve never lost contact with them anyway
