King of Hollywood

Chapter 233 Best Selling Books Leaderboard

It's unfortunate, but it's not too unfortunate. Adrian still has a lot of ideas, a lot of high-visibility and well-known works in his memory, and although he can't compete with Old Friends, it's a classic. When the company's television department has fully grown through the "Old Friends", it can be produced in part.

Besides, to improve the TV network's viewership rate, it's not entirely based on excellent performances. Don't forget that he still has a lot of classic comprehensive art program concepts. Comprehensive development is the most correct approach, so let's get TBS first.

After a break of almost two weeks, after Independence Day, Adrian returned to the company's studio to begin the later production of "This Killer's Not Too Cold". The editor has already clipped a quarter of the script's footage, and he can begin to do a deep Montage clip of it, while overseeing the production of music and theme songs.

But overall, it's still easy because time is plentiful and Adrian can make it at the slowest possible speed. Surprisingly, the staff was slightly unacceptable for a while. After all, they had become accustomed to his rapid, desperate and demanding way of making them over the past two years, and now suddenly relaxed inevitably.

“Fine, then let's speed it up.” After hearing such a discussion, Adrian said to the staff that, although he was known to be joking, everyone was still joking.

Just kidding, while overtime is well paid and bonuses are huge, it's not as important as a comfortable and regular life. If Adrian is merciful and no longer in a hurry, why would they ask for it? But it is probably precisely for this reason that Hollywood has had to squeeze the intern's news out of a few movie companies every year, and that some work in society is soon becoming the patent of minorities or immigrants, and the momentum of the struggles of the two or three decades has almost disappeared.

Well, these are off-topic conversations, and the editorial work hasn't affected Adrian's current life. In addition to dating, attending various parties, and looking at various companies, he has time to do something else, such as go to the record company often and follow Britney and Christina's training progress.

Still good, two or three years of mmc laid a solid foundation for them, although Adrian demanded that teachers be treated strictly and that they be told in front of two girls, whom several teachers appreciated.

“You did a great job, and I really hope you can keep it up.” Adrian had to call them aside to say the last two words, basically words of encouragement, with a little hint. Of course, as usual, he would let Christina leave first, then leave Britney to say a few more words.

“Well, little man, as long as you behave yourself, I promise I'll take the time to come and see you. Now, I'm going to rest, you know, if it's day over there, it's night over here.” Adrian put his feet on the desk and smiled with a cordless phone, "Good night, then. I love you. ”

When the disconnect came, he sat up and put the phone back where it was and took a long breath of relief. Emma returned to London after Adrian finished filming in New York, and she couldn't have stayed here long, even with Mai taking care of her. In fact, it was nice for the little guy to come to New York, so no matter how hard she was, she still had to go back. Of course, when we parted, we couldn't help but cry and laugh for a long time.

Little guy. Adrian said something in her heart and then thought of Rodrine and George who had adopted her now. But he had to shake his head, and some things were not good for intervention.

He stretched his lazy back and put it aside, and he picked up another letter on the desk.

“… I've read this book, and frankly, the story is interesting, and the philosophical thinking about virtual cyberspace is astonishing, and my dad says it has a lot of glitter than other similar novels. Unfortunately, however, I feel that the fighting portrayal weakens this atmosphere of philosophical thinking...”

Looking at some of Juanxiu's handwriting, Adrian's mouth curled slightly. Saw Natalie reading the paper the other day, watching The New York Times, then looked over, and by accident discovered that Hacker Empire ranked 76th on the bestseller list.

It's a surprise, Adrian hasn't asked since he threw out the finished Hacker Empire to the publisher, and he doesn't even know how much it's sold - to be exact, he doesn't forget, of course, the publisher won't keep him informed, and Charlize organizes all kinds of information for him, so let's just say he hasn't paid attention at all.

I didn't expect to wait for the New York Times bestselling book ranking, although it was only 76th, but it was pretty good, you know, Adrian initially predicted that the novel was at best between second and first rate, so he couldn't help but exclaim: “I didn't expect this book to rank 76th. ”

How could Natalie, right next to her, ignore this line, and when she grabbed a quick look at the newspaper, she was amazed: “Are you saying you wrote this novel called The Hacker Empire? ”

“Of course. What's wrong?” Adrian had his hands full.

“Well...” Natalieton jammed, “Well, I'm just a little surprised that you're a director after all... I mean, writing a script and writing a novel are two things, so..."

She made an awkward gesture and smiled.

“In fact, it's all about creating stories, it's just different ways of acting,” Adrian smiled and solved her circumference, "In fact, I didn't think this novel would achieve this kind of achievement, and I didn't think that it was originally intended to be a script, and it could be calculated that although it could be made now, the budget alone might achieve an astronomical number, so I simply wrote it as a novel first. But... well... for some reason, I used a pen name, so don't tell anyone about it, okay? ”

Natalie was a little stunned at first and smiled a little: “I'm sure that's fine. ”

After a pause, she said, "It seems I should go buy a book and see how good you are at writing a novel. By the way, can you read it and make your own comments? ”

“Oh, of course, everyone has the right to publish their own views.” Adrian nodded, "but I'm about to go back to Los Angeles, so a hand ~ hit ~ your comment is either published in the paper or written to me - don't say anything by phone, that's not a comment but an opinion. ”

“So that's it.” Natalie thought about it and said yes.

This happened near the end of "This Killer's Not Too Cold," because Adrian and Natalie shared his little secret, so she promised to stay in touch by letter. There are times when distance is attractive, especially after that happens again.

“Well, think about how you're going to respond, and keep going.” Adrian looked over at the pale blue letterhead and mumbled that there were things that seemed obscure and could often be of great help.

“Ed, you should go.” Charlize knocked on the door and walked in without waiting for Adrian to respond.

“Hey, Charlie, you should come back in when I let you in, in case I'm naked and this is so embarrassing.” Adrian joked in a complaining tone.

“Will you be embarrassed?” Charlize gave him a white eye and turned around and left.

“Oh, Charlie, you really make me sad, how can you talk like that.” Adrian got up and laughed and chased out of the study, walking and tidying up his clothes, which he had already worn.

Charlize was too lazy to listen to him, knowing that it wasn't too salty to walk down the stairs: “By the way, Ed, I'm going to move out by mid-month, and there's a nice villa for rent in the Sillim area. ”

“Don't think about it, Charlie, I won't say yes.” Adrian vetoed it outright.

“Damn, Ed, you better understand that I'm just yours...” Charlize said halfway and shut his mouth and said again a few seconds later: “Okay, I'm not going to say this, or you're going to say I'm nagging again. Anyway, it's my business to decide where to stay. I have the freedom and authority to move around freely."

“Oh?” Adrian paused, turning around and watching Charlize smile twice, suddenly walking in front of her and forcing her to look at her: "Well, it looks like I'm going to pigeon them tonight - how about we go to the study and talk about it, Charlie? I'll find a way to convince you to get rid of it. ”

Charlize leaned back nervously, leaning against the wall without two steps, and couldn't resist the look of Adriana's aggression.

“What are you talking about, Charlie?” Adrian said in a low voice in her ear.

“Um... um... no, I'll... reconsider the previous question.” Charlize bit the root of his teeth and said with a sense of frustration.

“Well, then you'll have the house, Julia, and I'll pick her up.” Adrian smiled and sucked her mouth gently on her red lips before turning around and walking downstairs.

Seeing as his back gradually diminished, Charlize slipped softly against the wall, so she took a deep breath, half angry, half depressed, and covered her forehead after several minutes of beaming.

Parties are always an indispensable part of American life, especially in Hollywood, where all kinds of parties are dazzling. And parties are often also places to showcase a person's status, especially the identity and status of the host, as can be seen from the guests who attend.

Adrian's participation this evening is naturally a celebration party for Old Friends, and it's a long time ago that he won such a high rating. Although he hosted the Bosworth Film Industry, his role as a producer - albeit famous, but the idea of the script and the selection of the actors came from his own pocket - was considered to be the organizer, so a lot of people came after being invited.
