King of Hollywood

Chapter 140 Shaking Your Head and Thumbs

Life is like chocolate, and you never know what the next one tastes like, and Adrian is kind of deeply aware of what that means. If he had paid a little attention at the time, he would not have been put on the same page, after all, he was not unaware of the doubts in it, but unfortunately, unless he was reborn again, if such words were meaningless.

At the meeting, it was almost impossible to see the relationship between authenticity and hypocrisy from the outside, but Adrian was also a little too frivolous and hasty, didn't really see each other in the eyes, always thought he had complete control of the process, always thought it was a simple thing to deal with this person, etc. Smarter people will inevitably be shielded from making these mistakes, and famous characters will be deluded by some simple deception, let alone Adrian.

His biggest reliance is that he can always put himself in the perspective of a bystander to analyze the problem, and once he loses that advantage, it's normal to be deceived. Fortunately, the loss was not too heavy, and that was a good thing. At least he was given a warning bell, which is much better now than later on when it comes to important choices.

After learning the next day that the check had been cashed, Adrian quickly left the matter behind, complaining uselessly, as long as he learned the lesson and did not make the same mistake again. So over the next few days, Claudia was asked out to play in England, and naturally she was extremely happy every night. Perhaps there was some interest on her mind, although she spent three days together, just as Claudia developed it from top to bottom from the inside out.

Claudia, though not the kind of nv who came, was never as clean and self-conscious as the media preached, especially in the past few days, in bars and nightclubs that no one else could recognize, she behaved both sensibly and naturally, and spoken of Victoria's secrets and promised them under Adrian's captivity.

“In a few years, this brand will be top notch, and my eyes will not be limited to movies, Dini, time will prove it. Besides, being able to invite two supermodel endorsements is a laudable thing, and I'm sure you'll never lose to Cindy, right?” That's what Adrian said when he was half lying on his side.

“So tell me, Ed, me and Cindy? Crawford, which one is better?” Claudia lazily stretched out her lazy waist and her grey blue eyes didn't blink at him. She was only wearing thin pajamas, her neck was wide open, the * light inside was visible, and the long double ui, slightly curled together, was almost entirely out.

“It's hard to say, you and Cindy have each...” Adrian was interrupted before he finished his ambiguous remarks.

“No, no, no, Ed, that's not what I'm asking," Claudia laughed, smiling with a slightly unintelligible god. I mean, me and Cindy, which one is stronger on top. ”

“Ha, that's not a good question.” When Adrian settled in, he picked his eyebrows.

“Oh, don't lie to me, Ed, I know a lot about your name, and don't forget that I'm one of the supermodels, and I'm always concerned about the opponent's news.” Claudia's smile became mellow, "you were really sweet and thoughtful and Cindy couldn't have turned you down, so... can you tell me? Still want to...”

She climbed over, looked at Adrian like that, curled her round ass up, and bowed down between his two uis.

Adrian took a long breath: "Well, that's a good way to compare. ”

Whether it's for the future or Cindy, one of the supermodels? Claudette climbed better and had a good relationship with Adrian, the new legendary Hollywood director and media giant, and Claudia agreed to the secret invitation of the spokesperson Victoria. So after she finished her London walk, Adrian went back to Los Angeles.

“For your sake, I even betrayed myself, Claude.” When he told Claude it was done, he said with an outraged look.

“Enjoy the blessing and declare that it is compelling. Who can be more shameless than you?” Claude snorted at it, laughing at what he was being treated like, and Adrian didn't hide it.

“Know what I remember? When I was in second grade, I told a fellow in my class that I could turn a dollar into ten dollars, just under the tree at the end of the bāng stadium. And then he planted it silly, and then you dug it up, and I told him this dollar was absorbed by the trees because it was mishandled. I had no idea you were going to be that kid one day. That was ridiculous.” Claude scoffed uncovered.

“Wait, Claude, you better hope you don't get into this, or I'll turn it into a movie and move it onto the screen and keep the real name of the person," Adrian saluted in the same tone.

The two men laughed a few times and then talked about business again, and there was not much argument, and Adrian had always supported Claude's resolution unless it ran counter to his own ideas.

“There are already signs, albeit apparently invisible.” When it came to the most important thing of the year, Claude took some information from the office safe and showed it to him.

Although it is only January, it is not particularly difficult for them, those who have access to inside information, to draw such conclusions, together with early attention.

“How are we doing?” Adrian looked over and asked.

“It'll take a while to get back to the cage, but that's okay, at least for about six months, and it's better to let someone else do the headlines.” Claude shrugged.

He still maintains the view that, unlike those hedge funds, AC Media must not overdo some things. Adrian knew he was doing it for the company's sake, so he didn't insist on anything, so long as he got the money he needed and didn't affect the consolidation plan.

Adrian would have liked to talk about two important things about this, but it's too early to think about it. Although he knows he can't touch some things, he can't help but try not to have an intuitive understanding, so it's time to go.

“So what exactly is Disney planning? Michael? Eisner is not a must-have, but he is definitely not generous. Since we put him together more than once, he will surely return it if he has the chance. Anything useful on Viacom?” Adrian asked about another topic he was more interested in.

After the failed acquisition of ABC, Eisner, though seemingly precarious for some time, was in fact just an illusion he had created, and these crises were no worse than when he first took over Disney, and once the opponents had jumped out, a means was put in place, and a somewhat loose throne was immediately fixed again. Inevitably, however, they were not to be seen, so when they learned what Disney seemed to be working with Viacom, both Adrian and Claude were quite concerned, after all, that Viacom had some stake in AC Media.

“No, Thunderstone said it was just a normal cooperation, because the details were still under negotiation, so it was inconvenient for Turklade to shrug her shoulders now and then comfort herself:“ Don't worry, even if Disney exchanged shares from Viacom, it wouldn't do us any good, and I don't think Thunderstone would have to take out the potential unit jiā in his hand. ”

“It's hard to say, if only we knew what they were working with.” Adrian sighed and was about to change the subject. Suddenly an idea appeared. Is it...

“What do you have in mind?” After noting the change in his expression, Claude asked.

“Yes, I did think of a possibility, but I needed more information to be sure.” Adrian shook his head, "that's it, keep watching. ”

Because I've worked on television in my previous life, and I've seen a lot of comedy, I know a little bit about several television stations in the United States, and the information about TB and ABC comes from that. It's just that these messages don't work as often as movies do, so one is hidden in the corner, and it only comes back because of what it touches. If nothing goes wrong, Viacom should be buying CB soon.

b It's not like a broadcaster like ABC that loses year after year. Don't look at the popular episodes that NBC launched in the '90s, but it's always less profitable than CB, let alone F developed because of news groups. If you want to acquire such a huge thing, it's not that much more than $1 billion can handle it. Viacom has developed well over the years, but I'm afraid there's still some power left to eat, right?

So how did Viacom acquire CB in memory? Adrian could only smile and shake his head after carefully recalling. He had only learned in general terms that, according to the mosaws of the last few years, as long as he had the impression that he should be able to recall it, but if he did not, it would not be helpful to recall it any more.

Did Disney come forward, or did Vicom come forward? Although the acquisition of ABC failed, Disney would certainly not give up the opportunity to acquire another broadcasting company, would Isner, with Leishdong's Ger, have always liked to work with the power monopoly? To think of it, Adrian sighed in his heart. Though I met with Lei Shidong a few times and admired the old man who had been in World War II and ruined his face by the fire, he didn't really know each other very well, Claude and he fought a lot more. Forget it, let's just find out what's going on.

But Adrian didn't have much time to go back to Los Angeles, and in a few days, he went back to London, this time on vacation, and this time on business, and Warner Payne, in addition to Adrian's assistant secretary Charlize? Clarkson, and the destination, of course, was the little manor you were visiting.

As background music began to get high, the movie basically ended, and the image on the screen gradually drew closer to Nicole, who was following her husband shopping at the mall, and then spit a word out of her mouth.

The film ended because, given the psychological activity of the patient and the physical inconvenience, the projector stopped when the list was fully released, and the curtains in the house were then pulled open, and some of the yin's heavy light suddenly poured into the house.

This is a temporarily remodeled living room where Kubrick put the bunk because he couldn't move, and Adrian, Charlize, Clarkson, and two of his nv's sat around the half-circle. At this point, they all looked unanimously at Kubrick, and Adrian promised to bring the finished Big Eye Ring to England and bring the tools to play here. If Kubrick refused, the film could not be shown under the original contract, so his reaction is particularly important now.

However, after so many tens of minutes there was no movement in Kubrick, who had been staring at the front - the white è curtain previously hanging on the wall for playback had been put away - as if HUN had not stayed in the house, and if it had not been for the slightest fluctuations in the mouth of IONG, it might have made one think that he had gone to heaven.

“Daddy...” Big NV screamed quietly.

Kubrick finally reacted, turning his neck hard and looking at Adrian without turning his eyes for several more minutes. The watched Adrian creates an uncomfortable feeling in his mind, and those apparently slightly cloudy eyes occasionally seem to reflect a sharp light.

Is that an illusion? Adrian asks himself uncertainly, when he notices the flashing light, for a moment he almost thinks the other person has seen through him.

Kubrick finally closed his eyes, half lying there with nothing to say. Clarkson couldn't help but be a little frustrated. What is it, okay or not? How much should I give you exactly?

“Father's a little tired.” Anya saw his scorch and explained it in a low voice, and Clarkson knew that he had to wait for his son.

Finally, Kubrick opened his eyes again and walked around several people, then shook his head very hard. One of Clarkson's hearts sank, which meant either throwing the movie into the warehouse for a total loss or tearing his face apart with Kubrick.

Adrian's eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle. There's no reason. He's tried to get as close as possible to the original. He even handled a few details better. Since Kubrick loves this movie, shouldn't he have lu's expression? Is it true the rumor that he was planning to re-edit before he died? Or because the movie suits his heart, but because he can't handle the mirror himself, he doesn't like it?

At this point, his little nv suddenly shouted and saw Kubrick's right hand trembling up and thumbs up after a long time of inactivity.

“What... what's going on here?” Clarkson looked at Kubrick overwhelmed, and Kubrick's little nv had rushed out to get a doctor.

The move seemed to drain all of Kubrick's jing power, his raised arm suddenly drowned, his eyes closed, the big nv guarding the side suddenly shook up, followed by the doctor rushing in, while examining and driving the idle midgets - Clarkson, Adrian, Charlize - out.

“What exactly is Stan's opinion? Damn, shaking his head and praising, oh, shit, why would he have a stroke” clarkson complained walking around in the big living room.

“Well, Payne, you're just concerned.” Adrian, who had been thinking about his chin, suddenly looked up and said with a smile.

“Do you see anything?” Clarkson turned to him, “tell me, Ed, what do you see? ”

“Let's wait for the doctor to come out.” Adrian just laughed and didn't say anything.

Soon after, Big NV finally came out: "Sorry, Adrian laughed, Payne laughed, and Miss Charlize, the doctor said Dad had consumed too much jing power to rest today. ”

“Well, Miss Anya, if Stan decides, please let us know immediately.” Having heard her say that, Clarkson also knew there would be no results today, sighed and left with Adrian.

“Payne," Adrian called suddenly as he came outside about to board the car, "you can start getting ready. ”

“Are you so sure?” Clarkson looked at him and asked, and after Anja came out, he basically came to a conclusion, just not particularly certain.

“Remember to rate Jiā as soon as possible and then start publicizing it, plus the screening won't be necessary and will be shown directly to the exhibitor when the publicity is in place.” Adrian answered the question and followed Charlize in the car and left.

Kubrick, the legendary director whose twelve works surprise everyone - whether he hates them or likes them - should see something but not be so sure. Back at the hotel, Adrian looked outside and thought about the little rain that started to leach on the way back. I wonder how much he guessed.

Though he didn't like what Kubrick wanted in the film, and even hated it, trying to take over the Big Eye Ring just to make his halo shine brighter and take advantage of certain things, he did admire the old man a little at this moment.

“Some of the information was faxed by Los Angeles.” Charlize walked in at this point.

“Thanks, Charlie, it's different with you around.” Adrian smiled and took over.

“Is that you?” Charlize suddenly asked.

“What?” Adrian picked the eyebrows.

“The Navy officer, Tom? Cruz fantasized about, and Nicole did * naval officers.” Charlize doesn't blink.

“Is there a problem?” Adrian asked with a smile.

“You guys are really doing it.” Charlize said in a positive tone.

“So sure?” Adrian looked at her with interest.

“Of course, I'm familiar with your size, from height to back shadow to intrinsic features, especially the size of the thing below, and I can even jing to three decimal places.” Charlize lifted his chin.
