King of Hollywood

Chapter 174 Salary Increases

The party didn't last much time at the bar, Sean? Waters was going to talk to Adrian about a film about Fox, and they wanted Adrian to direct it. Since Adrian revealed that he would not reject the scripts of other companies altogether, the invitations, which had already been reduced, have slowly changed, after all, where his achievements lie. Still, it is worthwhile and beneficial to them, and they do not mind taking you up to heaven.

Fox sent Sean, the general manager who had a good relationship with Cameron, apparently to convince Adrian. It's just that when Adrian invited him out for a drink, not only did he call Cameron, but he added Arnold? Schwarzenegger, and talking about "The True Lie," made Sean temporarily unable to find a place to intervene.

He knows it's an obscure sign from Adrian, but at least give him a chance to talk, right? Luckily, Adrian wasn't the one who saw everything, and after two or three hints, Sean finally gave him a chance to talk privately.

“I think it's a good script, Sean, and I think my eyes are still a little convincing. But, unfortunately, I still have to say that last year's three films took my mind off it, and I want to rest a little longer. Besides, I'm not hiding it from you, I already have a movie in mind.” Adrian said, looking at Sean's disappointment, he added as a consolation: “If you believe me, Philip? Noyce is a great director of the film. ”

Fox wants his script to be adapted from Tom? In Adrian's memory, this is Harrison? Ford starred in the action movie, but it looks like Paramount made it. How did it end up in Fox's hands now? To be honest, if he hadn't had a movie on the schedule right now, and Oscar would have started making it later, and he wasn't planning on making more this year, he'd really like to try it, but now he can only refuse.

Sean was disappointed, but didn't say much, just left the bar very quickly. After a few more drinks, Schwarzenegger also said goodbye for his wife's sake, and Cameron had to entertain him and think he was too attached to his wife. Schwarzenegger just laughed without explaining it, but Adrian knew that he probably had the will to ask Governor Ding's throne by the time he got married, otherwise why would he find a Kennedy woman to be his wife?

After Schwarzenegger left, Adrian and Cameron had a couple of drinks and talked about some movie stuff, especially the use of new technology, before they left the bar together.

“Wait, Ed, I'll definitely make this movie better and hotter than Terminator," Cameron said with such a vow after coming out of the bar, on the street at the beginning of Hua Lamp.

“I totally believe that, James," Adrian similarly sprayed alcohol, pulling his collar in the night breeze, "I chose you because I believed you could do miracles. ”

“No, no, no, Ed, you're wrong. You're the one who can do miracles.” Cameron shook his head like a wave drum. "Listen, what did they call you? Miracle director, isn't it? ”

As he opened his arms and smiled and made a big man's move, Adrian suddenly opened his mouth after watching him smile and not smile: “James, after the film was made, are you interested in creating a real miracle? ”

“A miracle? What miracles?” Cameron asked puzzled.

“I can't say, the light flashes, but my instincts tell me that if I succeed, it will shock the world." Adrian still has a smiley, non-smiling look, "Would you like to try it, James? ”

Cameron looked at him for a long time, rubbing his nose and punching him in the shoulder: “That's settled. ”

What can be described as a miracle is naturally only that film, and if Adrian makes his own director, it goes without saying that he knows that he will add a new one to his accomplishments. It's just, it's taking too long. How long has Cameron been spending? Shooting alone has been more than a year, not to mention so much preparation, even deliberately going to the bottom to observe the wreckage up close, and Adrian doesn't have that much time to spend on it.

Anyway, in his plan, there are hundreds of millions of big box office producers to choose from, and giving the film to a trucker doesn't have much impact, but it also lets them work for themselves, why not?

After finishing his visit to True Lies, Adrian spent a few more days working on something else, most importantly the production of Old Friends. After nearly two months of auditioning, angle selection, integration, the first episode is now complete and the director of NBC's Los Angeles division is being contacted, so long as they don't have the brains in them, they will definitely buy the show.

When I first tried the first episode, the laughter in the screening room kept going. Even when Adrian saw Ross mumbling and saying, "I just want to get married," then Rachel in the wedding dress ran in from outside the cafe. After everyone looked silly, Chandler shouted, "I only need millions now," he couldn't help laughing.

The six old friends in the show, of course, or "The Original Class Horse," except for Jennifer, who made the first order? Anniston plays outside Rachel, Matthew? Perry was the first to sign because he was Jennifer's classmate, and Jennifer thought the role was perfect for him, so she recommended him for an audition.

And then Lisa? Kudrow and Courtney? Cox, they're both little famous actors, and it doesn't take much work to find them. Followed by Matt? LeBron, he was quite famous for his advertising models, and the works involved were small productions, and the people in the TV department took a lot of work to find him.

The most troublesome part is David? Humont, he is still busy with his "Mirror" theatre company in Chicago, although the company has come to an end, and there is also a film and television company that wants to sign a comedy contract with him, and he himself is not interested in scenario comedy, and the assistant who made the contact spent all his time talking to his agent before moving him.

Honestly, what if it wasn't David? Humont was Ross? If Gayler's actor says so, Adrian will change hands after receiving his first report, and there are more Hollywood actors, and not one less. In the end, however, it was decided to give the next w meeting again, so as to maximize the quality of the episode and make it easier to keep track of the episode. Besides, it's interesting to collect dramas from the original class, isn't it?

“In reply to Garrett, they did a great job, and I stopped asking about the record company, but every month… it was a regular weekly debrief," Adrian said as he sat behind his desk writing and painting, "and told Parker that the new script was down 79 scenes 2 I was very dissatisfied, and I needed him to readjust the plot, the details of which I had already written on it. ”

He handed the script to Charlize behind the desk.

“Got it, nothing yet?” Charlize nodded and wrote down.

Adrian thought for a few seconds and said, "Notify the publishing company. After the novel is released, be sure to notify me first. Besides, is the rental of a private plane done? ”

“We can take off tomorrow.” The woman shrugged her shoulders and suddenly sighed after cleaning up what was in her hands.

“What's the matter?” Adrian asked curiously.

“I think you should give me a raise.” Charlize looked at him very seriously.

“You've only been working for less than a month and you're going to get a raise?” Adrian raised his eyebrows with a smile.

“I didn't know how many companies you had to deal with when I first applied," Charlize said, "it was obviously unreasonable to be a secretary and assistant and now have so much work to do. ”

“I have to remind you, Charlie, this is all in the contract. You read it and signed it.” Adrian watched her for a long time, and Charlize couldn't help but stare at him.

“All right,” Adrian said, “you're not kidding either,“ you're eight years old next month anyway, and the details of the contract need to be adjusted and supplemented accordingly, if you really want a raise, how about we talk about it then? ”

Charlize whispered softly and stood up and went outside. If she was in the office most of the day, she was usually ol dressed, so the back of the scene seemed to have a special rhyme, Adrian almost whistled.

Charlize is quite good at her job skills. Although she is a newbie and has made some mistakes at first, she is smart, learns quickly, and with that disgruntled personality, everything is well organized in just a few weeks. No wonder she can achieve that in her memory, and the salary increase can be considered.

“Speaking of which, most of the women around them have this disobedient personality.” Adrian slammed his fingers on the table and said, "Kate, Sarah, Charlize, all of a sudden. Thinking about it all of a sudden, if they remember correctly, they have an interesting thing in common, maybe try it on Charlize?

Adrian shrugged his shoulders and turned his attention to work. Things in Los Angeles had basically come to an end. The new script, though still having a few problems, could be solved in a few moments; and the publishing company was finally releasing the novel edition of Hacker Empire, which was no big deal.

Most importantly, on the record company's side, the men's mix, which took some effort to build, operated fairly well and, thanks to the popularity of two songs from Adrian, not only achieved 500,000 sales in the first week, but also held a high place in the major music leaderboards. If the songs weren't written in partnership, the music director of the record company would probably close the CEO's door and invite the owner to sing.

Overall, several of the companies have grown well, and Adrian's main focus has been on the film, with the exception of the necessary circumstances, which do not interfere with specific matters. So, after questioning, he started his last and most important visit before the Oscar Awards ceremony.
