King of Hollywood

Chapter 208: I'm Making a Deal with You

Soon Natalie understood what Adriana meant by a sneer, and today she was filming Matilda and Lyon discussing the play of romance, and one of the lines was that she had performed when she took the initiative to find Adrian, and was praised for that and then laid the groundwork for that role.

But no matter how hard she worked after the shooting, Adrian was always dissatisfied, and it took almost a dozen shots of each shot to stop. Natalie quickly understood why this was happening, but it was impossible for her to fight back, because every time after ng Adrian pulled very seriously to explain what she was going to shoot, and very seriously and honestly, she had no idea what to say. The most hateful thing was that she had a shot coming out of the room, and she just walked out of it, and she shot it almost four times, and when she questioned, Adrian was innocent, and she forgot to turn on the camera three times in the beginning.

Well, in the face of this situation, Natalie had to do exactly what Adrian asked. Since he was not afraid to waste film and time, she had to disguise herself for a mistake? After all, an actor cannot compete with a director, especially when he is a producer and an investor.

Of course, that doesn't stop the little girl from screaming in her heart: Damn Ed.

But for Adrian, it's just a small trick, not even discipline, so you don't have to worry about it. Besides, he didn't overdo it, only Natalie would do it on her own, and soon after the scene was filmed, things returned to normal.

What he wants to know now is Charlize's reaction. Though she handled his injured orbit with great care in the morning, she went far behind the crew and seemed afraid to see him.

This is not her style. Adrian said in half a joke. If he really wanted to hide, how could Charlize have hit him? Just trying to cheer women up, a certain amount of tolerance is necessary, otherwise how can you show that a man is considerate? But it takes kindness to make her feel like she's being considerate and caring for her, not just ordering her to never move without restraint.

Adrian was a little over the top this time, after all, holding a panda eye can easily have some negative effects, such as his prestige in the crew or becoming a gossip talker - he seemed to see two journalists when he came to the set. So, if you don't get the desired effect and the corresponding compensation, it's a huge loss.

“This is a CZ750 police sniper rifle from CZ, with a floating heavy barrel, and a thumb-hole butt that can be adjusted to the paddle and the base plate of the butt.” Adrian on the rooftop balcony introduced Natalie to the next prop gun and said a bunch of rear words that suddenly turned: “Of course, you don't need to know any of this, just position yourself. ”

“Who says I don't need to know, even if I don't need to know later, can't I understand?” Natalie was very dissatisfied.

“You can read the instructions, and I'm sure a girl who can read the newspaper can totally understand the complicated gun instructions.” Adrian frowned.

And Renault next to him couldn't help laughing, “Don't you think that's funny? ”

“Really? You think so, Nada?” Adrian punched Natalie in the eye against her chin, giving her a ghost face and twisting her head aside.

Renault's laughter got bigger, Adrian snorted, and Charlize walked over and said, "Ed, Crowe wants you to call him back after work, and he's got something important to talk to you about. ”

“Okay, I get it.” Adrian nodded and looked at Charlize as he was about to continue to say something, but the other person lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him as quickly as he could walk away.

Looking at the woman's back, Adrian wrinkled her eyebrows, but quickly softened them. But it didn't escape Natalie's eyes, and she immediately seemed to find the new continent asking, "What happened between you? ”

“What happened?” Adrian makes a puzzling appearance.

Natalie looked at him for a few minutes, and then her eyes curled, like the next string of moons.

“Ed, your eyes weren't Charlie's, were they?” She asked, hey, smiling, word for word.

“All right, Sherlock, let's just focus on getting ready to shoot, if you don't want to keep going," Adrian pressed her hand on her head, half threatening half the warning, and stood up and walked over to the camera.

Although Natalie made a big ghost face at his back, she climbed down on a blanket that was laid on the ground, lifting her prop gun and starting to aim at the scale. Reynolds shrugged his shoulders and prepared to climb down.

The director's job is actually simple and simple, not simple and simple. The director himself doesn't really need to do much specific work, there are photographers, makeup, makeup, props, lights, lighters, even editors for later production. Beyond that, there are directors, executive directors, court notes, and countless assistants, and all directors have to do is make macro adjustments, bring these guys together, and let them know what they want to shoot.

Simply put, directors first need to know how to tell a story and then communicate with you so that they can work with each other on their batons. If the director doesn't have anything in his belly, he'll get another luxurious line of films. That's why even truck drivers and video store owners can be directors.

This is Adrian's strengths. No one else in the world understands more than him how some films should be made. Although he has not had much experience in guiding in previous life, he has developed a series of strengths with his students' constant learning, combined with the memory in his head, so as long as the actor is in place, it is easy and efficient to shoot compared to the director.

So at the end of one of the next shots, Renault said to him, “I thought Luc was great, and I didn't think you were worse than him, and even better than him in some places, and I'm glad to work with you, Ed. ”

It's not easy for this Frenchman to say this, Renault, though humorous most of the time, has a bad temper, and he's got some unnamed pride in his bones. But he's not the kind of guy who just wants his full approval, but it's not easy, especially him and Luc? Besson has been cooperating for a long time.

“I'm glad to hear that. I hope to work with Luc in the future.” Adrian answered that question without much concern, unlike Matilda's high level of fit with Natalie, a role that was originally tailored for him. Adrian would be better off buying a tofu and killing it - some in Chinatown.

So most of Adrian's attention is still on Charlize, two days after the last incident, his not very serious black eye orbit has begun to fade away, no need to wear sunglasses to go out, but Charlize still hastily left after saying things like that. Unlike the chill triggered by Monica's arrival, she's more worried and hesitant about something.

“Look, Charlie, look what these guys are saying.” Adrian sitting on the couch smiled and looked at Charlize cleaning up the room, shouting and waving at the newspaper in his hand, saying, "This killer is not too cold." The crew had an accident and the miracle director suspected an eye injury. They're really good at making up stories and deliberately showing a blurry picture. ”

Because the crew was surrounded by reporters from time to time, and just that morning, he arrived at the crew without doing anything to cover it up, and was photographed far away. Although it is not clear, it is somewhat distinguishable from the dark circle in his eyes, but from the outset all the interviews were handled by the crew, which was basically unannounced on such matters, so journalists simply guessed.

“It's not good that you haven't been in the media for a while, and it's just the opportunity to create momentum for a new movie, isn't it?” Charlize sat on the couch after packing and spoke for a moment.

“No, no, no, no, dear Charlie, the publicity work will naturally be done by the planning department, not yet. As for myself, Oscar, less than two months ago, was remarkable enough, and it would be fatiguing for the public to continue now.” Adrian shrugged her shoulders and looked at her with a smile and her eyes didn't blink.

Charlize's chest fluctuated a few times, then looked up at him and said, "Okay, I'm officially sorry for what I did that morning, Ed. ”

It took Adrian a few seconds to reveal his surprise: “Is that it? ”

“What else do you think I should do?” When Charleston looked at him with her eyes wide open, “Remember, Ed, if it wasn't for your excesses the other night, how could I have done that?”

“I'm trying to help you," Adrian spread his hands out so innocently, "and besides, we didn't do it, and you enjoyed it that night, did you? ”

“You...” Charlize said in a moment, well, if she was angry about Monica, then why had she been involved with Adrian before, what kind of person he was, she wasn't unclear.

“I'm just...” Charlize gestured to defend herself, but after a lap in her mind, she found it hard to say.

“Damn, how could I meet a boss like you,” she cried with her head covered.

“Well, Charlie, if it makes you happy that I have to apologize, then I'll apologize.” Adrian said he held her in his arms, and Charlize gave up after a little struggle.

After a few minutes of silence, she bit her teeth and suddenly looked up at Adrian and said, "I want to make a deal with you."
