King of Hollywood

At this time of year, there are countless predictions, critics interpret the possible trend of Oscar from their own perspective. Various reviews greatly enrich Americans' conversations after tea meals, and many loyal film fans pinpoint each other for their favorite actors or directors. Who makes Oscar a big event in the film industry?

However, Adrian, one of the contenders, was not interested in responding precisely to this. Even if he was surrounded by journalists when he went out to attend the party, he would simply use words. For example, thanks to the Golden Globe jury for awarding the best movie to "Smell the Fragrance Woman", or Pacino and Thompson winning the prize, it was normal not to get the best director, etc. And something substantive, like anticipating the Oscar prospects, keeps quiet.

“He's probably working on a new movie again, and the title" workaholic "isn't for nothing.” There was the media that stumbled on him like that.

Adrian was indeed busy, for the first time after more than a month's rest. But this time it wasn't a movie, and last year's rush to produce three different kinds of films had already choked him enough, and there was no need to do the same this year.

This time he's busy with a TV show. Jennifer was at the party that night? As soon as Anniston remembers Old Friends, he asked the company to start gathering information. Fortunately, the best case scenario was that none of the similar TV screenplays were available, so as soon as he gave the TV department a general idea, he asked the writers to start writing the first episode.

Adrian, of course, was not too involved, and he simply kept commenting on the finished script and sent it back for the writer to revisit until he was satisfied. He could not and would not be interested in producing the drama, nor would he be able to recall the contents of all the episodes, which were the responsibility of the TV department team, so they had to eat themselves out of the theme and direction of the drama.

“Friendship between the six people is the key, and they either have that kind of problem, or they have a little bit of a quarrel, but when they calm down, they all reflect and understand each other, which is why the name of the TV show is called Adrian, who is on the head of the long desk, looking at the staff on both sides, and saying.

Seeing that they were all listening carefully, he said again: “We all know that TV shows play once a week and want to attract the audience, first, there's enough suspense to make them wonder what's going to happen; second, they can make people laugh and want to keep them happy." Old Friends "is naturally the second method, but please note, ladies and gentlemen, that these laughs have to be close to life, that the audience feels that the six protagonists are all people who live around them, that these interesting things that happen between them can happen to them at any time, don't exaggerate, grasp the character, understand? ”

Speaking of which, Adrian flipped through the folder in his hand, and took two of them out and yanked them: “For example, in episode eight of Zachary and Richard, Ross, although a little stubborn and a little stubborn, is definitely not a man who doesn't know the way around. Conversely, episodes 10 of Sal Joe, Alison, and Chewart did well, and Joey's slow half beat, Phoebe's nerves, and Rachel's little confusion were all in place. You can see by comparison, I have indicated my opinion on it. ”

He randomly arrived at Clark, the team leader on the left, who quickly read the two documents and handed them to the next person. After they were circulated, they were divided into several groups for discussion. Finally, Famica, the screenwriter, looked up at Adrian and said carefully: “We revised them as soon as possible, Mr. Adrian. ”

“Good. Any other questions?” Adrian looked at the crowd again and waved the meeting away when he saw that no one had spoken. “That's it, the angle selection process can begin, and a specimen can be made for the television station as soon as possible. ”

Though it took almost half a month to complete almost 10 episodes of the first season, in Adrian's view, the screenwriters in the television sector have done well. After all, the previous episodes were almost entirely adapted to his intentions, and the last three episodes were freely performed by the writers. Apart from the slight deviation in the description of Ross in the eighth episode, the other two episodes were well done, and if the specimens produced could pass from him, the show could be handed over to them with confidence.

“If you hadn't said that before, I really thought you were going to make a TV show.” LaVerne caught up behind him and mumbled, and although he was at the meeting, he didn't say a word from beginning to end.

“How could I, though I work crazy, always be alone.” Adrian Haha laughed twice, "even if he made three films in one breath last year, it was done with the help of a team. ”

Said he shot LaVerne on the shoulder: "Worried, LaVerde, the show's gonna get good reviews. You saw the script and you thought so, didn't you? ”

“Yes, so I'm supportive.” LaVerne shrugged, "Frankly, Ed, having a boss like you is both lucky and unfortunate. ”

“Because I can give you full trust and authority, but if you decide to do something, then do it anyway, right?” Adrian smiled and looked at him.

LaVerne shrugged her shoulders again without talking, and Adrian patted him on the shoulder again. The two smiled at each other, and as they worked together and the company grew, there was already a very tacit understanding between them.

“Mr. Adrian,” a clerk walked in, "Mr. Dennis has been waiting for you in your office. ”

“Okay, I'll be right there.” Adrian nodded to LaVerne and left, but two steps later he thought of something to turn around and admonish him: “By the way, LaVerde, tell the head of HR that I need a secretary assistant now. ”

“Secretary's assistant?” LaVerne's a little confused.

“You can be a secretary in the office, you can be an assistant in the studio,” Adrian explained, "I need an all-powerful talent to help with all the chores. ”

“Well, I know, I'll let them figure this out as soon as possible.” LaVerne promised to come down.

Adrian nodded again and went in the direction of his office.

"Hey, Dan, sorry to keep you waiting.” As soon as he got into the office, Adrian saw Dennis in a single shirt sitting around in a boring chair, greeting him with a funny greeting.

“Ah... hi, Ed.” Dennis hurriedly pressed the chair and bounced it, although he could not get acquainted with Adrian, he always had an instinctive respect in his office.

“Nothing, you have your own business to attend to.” He didn't care to wave, “I just came for a few minutes anyway. ”

After a while, Dennis asked curiously, "What are you up to, a new movie? ”

“Of course not,” Adrian sighed suddenly, "why does everyone ask me that? So, Claude, so are you. As long as I'm at work, must I be busy with a new movie? Am I that much of a workaholic? ”

“Probably because that's what the press calls you.” Dennis looked like he wanted to laugh and didn't dare.

“It seems to take a long time to reverse the way people look at me," Adrian waved her hand a little helplessly and sat down behind the table, "but it doesn't matter, there's not much to plan for this year anyway, and there's nobody around to deal with. ”

“Sorry, Ed, I'm sorry.” Dennis sat down again busily saying that.

“Pity?” Adrian looked at him unknowingly, but then he reacted and shook his head with tears.

“It's okay, I'm not paying attention.” Adrian didn't care to wave.

Dennis' regret was naturally Kate's departure, and Adrian didn't deliberately promote Kate's departure, nor did she deliberately hide it, so everyone knew about it - luckily, after the Golden Globe Awards dinner, because she was busy inviting guests to the party, and her intention to reveal Kate's authentic girlfriend in front of the reporters could not have been implemented, otherwise the media would be very lively right now.

“Really?” Dennis looked at him suspiciously, seemingly unbelieving.

“Well, let's say something else.” Adrian is also lazy to explain.

He didn't really take it personally, with Roger as his agent, and he knew exactly what Kate was doing. If there's any trouble with her leaving, it's that his life has become a little out of order.

While Kate was still around, Adrian had most of the files at home sorted out by her, and now she's suddenly gone. It took Adrian days to sort out what she left behind, so he just asked LaVerne to help find someone who could be both a secretary and an assistant. When making the previous films, every assistant was different, each time it took a while to grind together, so Adrian simply wanted to find someone to combine the two positions.

“I'm busy with a TV show, which is the idea of the party that your new girlfriend came up with. Of course, I was just providing ideas and starting supervision, and the vast majority of the work was entrusted to them.” Adrian said something about being in the conference room and was going to bring the subject to "Four Weddings, One Funeral," and Dennis sounded confused: “My new girlfriend? Since when do I have a new girlfriend? ”

Adrian's eyebrows picked, “What's up, Jennifer? Isn't Miss Anniston your new girlfriend? ”

“How could Jane be my new girlfriend?” Dennis is getting stranger, "we're just friends. ”

“Ordinary friends? Why were you at that party that night...” Adrian was a little confused too.

“What happened to me that night?” Dennis still doesn't understand.

Adrian punched the corner of his mouth, his hands tickled on the desktop of his desk a few times, and after a few seconds of silence, he looked at him: "Okay, tell me about what you guys know. ”

“
