King of Hollywood

Chapter 174 Accidental Harvest Company

“The lights are darker, I have emphasized many times, even if Edith has stabilized in Paris, she is still just a street seller, this must stand out, compare with life after, keep this in mind, understand?!” Adrian is directing loudly in the scene, "Rox, noting that all of this later is going to be replaced with French architecture similar to the previous act 23. ”

“Yes, sir!” Locks, who was named, answered aloud and quickly took notes.

Not only him, but all the staff were too busy to come out of the atmosphere. Although Adrian was not particularly serious, the tone of his voice was hidden in harshness, and no one could tell if he would get angry the next second? After all, by mid-January '03, Rose Life had fallen far behind schedule.

Although Adrian is known as the “energetic” miracle director, it takes three months to produce the film very quickly, and it will probably only take two months or even a month and a half for him to complete it, otherwise he will not show up at the end of last year with two major commercial productions entirely directed and produced by him, a film with a small artistic cost, but if the actor's state of affairs never fails, the director will not have the means to speed up the production any more.

Doesn't that mean Sophie's acting badly, and after all the grinding, she's basically got Edith? Piaf's qualities, combined with her makeup, especially after she's aged, are completely reminiscent of the way she's always looked. In both directions, it is very possible to climb to the rear throne.

It's just that Adrian wants her to do better, and in a lot of cases, Sophie and the rest of us have a great shot - if that's what it takes - and Adrian sees that there's room for Sophie to improve. Needless to say, he just wants to give her as many cards as possible before then, so it's okay to take a moment to shoot it over and over for the best results.

Anyway, there are not many plans for this year, so much waste doesn't affect anything, which is that the actors may be tired, but Sophie didn't say anything, and she always tried to cooperate.

The main reason for not keeping up with the plan is because of myself. So Adrian didn't mean to blame the crew, but it didn't prevent him from taking advantage of the opportunity to whip them. Sophie didn't care if she knew that, and privately, she used the prefix "energetic” to flirt with him, and of course, Adrian then made her understand what energetic means.

But now that she's not on the set, Adrian gave her a vacation, because there's no play for Piaf. Well, that's not accurate. It's supposed to be a play without an adult Piaf.

“Ready, Leonardo?” Adrian looked over to the dressing room after visiting the side again to make sure it was all right.

“Well, sir.” The makeup artist answered aloud and took Dakota? Fanning walked over.

Little Dakota is getting dirty right now. Wearing coarse clothes, hair is scattered, giving a vague but mature feeling, but the eyes of the bright crystals are still very godly.

“I won't say anything more to you, Hannah. You're a brilliant, brilliant kid, and I'm sure you can do the best you can.” Adrian colored and delighted to say to Dakota that he also shot her in the head.

“No problem, I've always wanted to work with the miracle director, and I'm sure I'll do my best,” Dakota crisp answered. Even with ugly makeup, you can't hide a sweet smile, "so you can continue to work together later. ”

What a smart kid. Adrian picked his eyebrows slightly out of sight. As a child, it was surprising to say something like that, and then it turned out to be cute, so he was more impressed, but... but he didn't think much about it, which was no big deal, as long as she could play the young Piaf.

Dakota did not disappoint Adrian. Many lenses ng four or five times, the longest is not more than two digits. This may not have much to do with the play, but she did do well to be a Red Boy star.

After praising her, Adrian came with a smaller, almost five-year-old girl. In Rose Life, young Piaf had two periods, one around the age of 10 and one around the age of five —— Dakota, though under the age of 10, was compensated for by a better performance among her peers —— so in addition to Dakota, Adrian had a younger girl.

“Hello, Mrs. Duke. Nice to meet you.” Adrian shook her hand with the mother who accompanied her and then bowed down to smile at her daughter: “You must be Colo? Moritz? ”

“Yes, sir, are you the famous miracle director?” The little girl wasn't scared at all, and replied with a soft voice, her eyes didn't blink and stare at him. It wasn't pretty, it was just cute. Even Adrian couldn't relate to her image a few years later, which is probably why no one would expect her to change in a few years.

It was a coincidence that Coro Moritz played the smaller Piaf, a role that was not particularly important, so Adrian didn't make too many orders when he picked the corner, and the crew didn't take it very seriously. And then, Colo's mother, Terry? When Duke brought his daughter to Los Angeles to visit Universal Studios, he went near the studio and saw the audition for the Rose Life crew. Colo was curious, and his brother, who had a history of acting, often bragged to her, so he begged his mother to audition.

Seeing her daughter so interested, coupled with the seemingly low conditions of the audition, Duke took Colo with him to try it, and then didn't pay attention. It was just that these actors eventually had to report to Adrian, and the person responsible for the selection had some vision, adding her information to the re-election, and Adrian remembered it when he saw it.

“If no one else is called a miracle director. That should be me." Adrian smiles, "that's your first movie, right? Don't worry, just do as I say. ”

After that, with Duke's permission, she touched her head and the little girl threw up a ghost face on his tongue.

“You have a lovely daughter, Ms. Duke.” Adrian laughed, then greeted the people and began to explain to little Clo.

If there's a future star coming to the door, why let it go? Whether from the development of the entertainment sector. Or from the perspective of rendering him talented, it all makes sense, just like Dakota, so Colo? Moritz got this role —— they thought it was a lie, and they didn't believe it when they got the call.

“All you have to do is show your pain, understand what pain is?” After a brief explanation, Adrian asked.

“Like... Mom threw away my Barbie doll?” The little girl crooked her head and asked, half a day later, realizing what was covering her mouth. Then worry about looking at the mother. The mother next to her, though somewhat surprised, didn't say much, but glanced at her with a smile, and Colo threw up his tongue and looked at Adrian with a smile: “I guess that's it. ”

Nice, cute, funny and smart. Adrian nodded with a smile and thought in his heart, basically you can decide.

“Interested in making your daughter an actor? Ms. Duke.” After those simple shots, Adrian asked Colo's mother like this.

“Being an actor?” Terry Duke opened her eyes, not that she didn't understand, but that she was a little unbelievable.

“Yes, in my opinion. Your daughter has a lot of potential," Adrian said, squatting down in front of Colo again, "is it funny to make a movie, Colo? ”

“Interesting.” The little girl lit her head, and when she shot it, she was basically behaving, although like many of the little actors in the first movie. Sometimes it doesn't work, but most of the time she's doing pretty well —— at least for a kid who's in a movie for the first time, Adrian makes her show as much emotion as possible.

But when she stops shooting and doesn't rest, she turns her eyes and curiosity and pulls someone to ask that, typically curious baby.

“Well, be willing to make movies more often in the future. And be a big star?” Adrian smiled and asked inductively.

“Am I... okay?” Colo skewed his head a little hesitant to ask.

“As long as you try, you will.” Adrian nodded seriously.

“Can you give us a moment to think about it?” Duke opens his mouth.

“Absolutely not.” He then made a gesture, please.

Adrian was not worried, not to mention his current reputation. Before the Duke family promised her daughter a role, she would certainly collect information about the director and the producer. The vast majority of people would not choose different things in the face of his long list of achievements. When Adrian was inducing Colo, Duke didn't have a word to spare, which is enough to explain the problem.

Then, the scout or broker will lobby continuously, and the end result will not be unexpected to Adrian.

Well, this is where Rose Life was filmed for the time being, and although it hasn't stopped, it's just as low-key as The Witch Head. After all, only halfway through January '03, whether Hacker Empire 2 or Ring King 2, or Demon Head, which has increased to 300 exhibitors, has attracted attention in different fields.

In addition, many films are fermenting, such as Scorsese's New York Mob, which has fallen short of praise, such as the Caribbean Pirate North American Box Office, which has already passed 250 million, and Chicago's exhibitors and box offices, which are basically proportional, such as the small-scale Moment, which is well received.

This one was adapted from Michael? Cunningham's novel, starring Rachel, Sophie, and Stripe, originally appeared in only 11 exhibitions, has yet to increase, the plot is slow, and the content is loose, but the film critics prefer this set, giving it a high score.

But if you're just talking about acting, the three stars, especially Sophie, may not be as good as the other two, and it's a little strange to be a French woman in a rural American family, but there are a lot of highlights in terms of acting, which proves that it's time to launch Rose Life.

And Rachel. The media called it her best work after The British Patient, and closer to Oscar, a huge prize winner - without Gwyneth and The Witch Head - so Adrian deliberately took the time to “comfort” her.

Although the movie industry is so lively, and Adrian has three completely different types of films online, he remains, as always, largely unorthodox in front of the media unless there is an important event, and explaining the situation for "The Witch Head" is only exceptional, because it is only convenient to do something about it. For example, arrange the residence of the high lady and study and live in the next few months.

“Since this is your first time in the United States, I have arranged for you to live with Hebrew and take good care of each other, and her villa is not small anyway.” Take the lady all the way to Lin Xilei, after the sea view villa in Santa Monica, drop her luggage and Adrian will take her on a tour to explain.

“Yeah, I've always hated being calm here, so I've slept with the company a lot of the time, and you're just in the middle of it.” Lin Xilei, who had been advised long ago, seemed very enthusiastic, "Zhiling is also resting now. Call her to gather together sometime. Whether I am her or not, she is a good person. ”

Throughout the tour, the high lady was not only surprised but curious. He just smiled timidly and basically didn't say much. When I first came to Los Angeles and lived in a place like this, it was normal to feel shocked.

Her choice was not unexpected by Adrian, as she had said. No one wants to come to Hollywood to develop, even if it's just a TV show.

Huayi's side was also very upbeat, and the arrangement required their cooperation, so Adrian didn't hide it, and they subsequently won the contract for Gong Lady's brokerage and were quite polite to her.

Then, when the Dragon Slaughter was finished, we took a break, said goodbye to family and friends and processed visas, and finally came across the Pacific Ocean in mid-January.

“Don't be too nervous, it's not entirely different from China, just take a few days off, adjust the jet lag, and call home. Get familiar with the environment. I'll give Heiley some time to coach you, teach you some common sense of life in the United States, and I'll come and see you all the time. Anyway, don't worry, it's like coming out on a vacation, and when you get used to it, we'll talk about English and acting classes, and we'll wait until April or May if the show starts.” After the tour, Adrian comforted the lady when there were only two of us.

This is a good opportunity. Why do people miss home when they're alone? Because everything familiar has changed, there's nothing you can rely on, something that makes you feel safe. In this case, if she feels safe enough, she will rely on each other unconsciously, so Adrian took a little time, after adjusting the jet lag and adjusting to her initial environment, took the time to invite her to shopping, eat, introduce her to the city, and easily put her to bed again.

Though you don't have to put her on the shelf, how can you not play a few more times in the face of such a beautiful young girl?

“Don't think about it so much. It's just an observation period. Let's wait a while," Adrian said in response to Lin Xilei's suggestion.

“No problem, boss.” Lin Xilei shrugged her shoulders.

“Besides, look at Zhiling, don't let her do anything stupid.” Adrian gave another admonition.

After all, Shuanglin is Taiwanese. Lin Xilei is fine. He knows more or less what he thinks and does things well. But Lin Zhiling is difficult to say. Especially if she has spoiled herself too much for more than a year. If there is any conflict with Gao Yuan because of geography or something else, then there is some trouble.

“No, boss, Chi Ling is actually very smart, she will have a great time with Miss Gao.” Lin Xilei replied, even with a small hint.

Adrian didn't pay attention. He knew that Lin Xilei had been trying to expand their circle, otherwise Liu Yuzheng would not have been recommended to him, and had advised Lin Zhiling many times. And that's why Adrian put the lady in her villa, and it shouldn't be a big problem to have her as a lubricant.

It was one thing, and in mid-January there was another thing that deserved his attention. It was an accident. It was a colo? A surprise like Moritz's.

Because of Britney, Christina, and Irvell, Adrian came to the world record a few times, and often stayed until after work, but today because of something early, she heard a sharp voice coming from the reception room over there: "Why not? I'm the best. Why not? Have you guys listened to my music seriously? ”

He can actually leave directly, but suddenly he finds it interesting, his voice is pointy and brittle, he should be a girl, and he is not too old, although he only has a few words, he can basically hear it, his voice is still very good.

Who's so arrogant? Adrian was curious and went to the fully transparent reception room and knocked on the door, then a tall child standing in front of the coffee table turned around. At first glance, he couldn't help but be a little stunned. This girl is not quite what I imagined. She is a little tall. She looks like she is fifteen or six years old, but there is a little obvious naivety between her eyebrows, about thirteen or four years old.

This is not the point, the point is that her face still has some baby fat, long blonde hair combed back, revealing all her forehead, so that the five officials who should have looked good make her look a little ugly instead.
