King of Hollywood

“Promise?” Adrian looked up, and half a while later he finally remembered, "Oh yes, you said yesterday you wanted to introduce me to someone... but not now? ”

“No, but if I hadn't come to see you in advance, I would never have seen you at the hotel cafe at 10: 00.” Weinstein was helpless with another pair of hands.

“Well, it's my fault," Adrian said, “well, just give me a minute, I'll have to spend some time dressing and...”

He pointed to the bedroom, and it was self-evident what had not been said in the back, and Weinstein shrugged his shoulders and left after making a "please don't be late” gesture.

“Hey sweetheart, I have to say I'm sorry...” Adrian walked into the bedroom and was grabbed before he finished: “Yes, I know, you have something, I heard you. ”

Zoe, who had changed her clothes and sat on the chair, said in a big grin, distorted her mouth to look a little dissatisfied, but cute, and then she sighed exaggerated: “It's normal, that's how men are. Once a woman is in bed, the sweet words she said will soon dissipate. ”

“Oh, Zoe, it's so sad to hear you say that. It hurts so much.” Adrian sighed equally exaggerated, then smiled and squatted down in front of her, putting her hand in her own hands: “Okay, sweetheart, I just have a little date, it won't take long, you can wait here or go to the ski resort first, I'll be there soon. I promise.”

He kissed her on the lips and said, "You're one of the sweetest and cutest girls I've ever seen. How could I let you down? ”

“But my mother told me never to believe a playboy. I made a mistake yesterday and I can't do it again today.” Zoe said very seriously.

“Well, it seems I should find a way to prove my sincerity," Adrian grabbed his head and smiled badly after glancing at the time beside him. “Just in time, we still have some time. ”

Zoe revealed her confusion, but after Adrian reached out to unbuckle her clothes, he understood, and when he was about to go on, he said, "Stop, you bastard, wasn't it enough last night? ”

Nonetheless, she giggled and her face turned pale red. So Adrian quickly peeled off her top. But Zoe didn't want him to get it so easily, and then she giggled and played hide-and-seek in the bedroom. Unfortunately, these tricks didn't work in front of the experienced Adrian. When she wanted to climb over from the bed, he suddenly jumped up and pressed her under her, and then, in her screaming voice, threw down her pants and peeled them off. White buttocks are then exposed to the air.

“Ed, you cheated...” Zoe screamed angrily, but she hadn't fully screamed yet, and her mouth was jammed.

At Adrian's instigation, they kissed each other. Then, before Zoe was completely stripped, Adrian split her legs off and the unique morning luck between the men and women began in a groan.

Morning * * actually has many advantages, especially in winter mornings * *, which make it faster to have a good condition. So when Adrian came downstairs to the hotel's cafe, he shivered. Weinstein has been waiting there, and it looks like he's been waiting a lot of time, but look at the time, he's not late.

“Where's the man you're going to introduce, Harvey?” After instructing the waiter, Adrian asked in a relaxed tone.

“He hasn't arrived yet," Wayne Stanley said, a little embarrassed. He specifically went to warn Adrian. And Adrian came down, and none of his friends had come, "But it should be here soon, a few more minutes... hey, there he is. ”

Spin, Weinstein stood up and waved up at the door: “Mike, this way. ”

Following his gaze, a very wealthy middle-aged man came this way. His face was fat or fat. In the words of previous life, it was a typical “by” face, wearing black framed glasses, with a circle of beard, walking up to the upper limb with a large swath, should be a very confident or even arrogant guy.

“I'm sorry, Harvey, I thought it was Hayton Cafe on Solum Street. I'm so sorry.” The middle-aged man came and apologized.

“It's okay, Ed and I just sat down,” Weinstein shook his hand and introduced, "Ed, this is Michael? Moore, renowned documentary director and independent producer. Mike, this is Adrian? Corwell, the famous miracle director and… philanthropist. ”

Michael? Moore? Adrian squinted his eyes so fast that his memories of his past life and life's experience quickly reminded him of the fat man's message, and he shook his hand and glanced at Weinstein as he shook cold.

Weinstein hey hey silent hidden smile, looks a little embarrassed, he also knows this guy is a headache for the big business owner, so what else did he introduce him to?

“Let me get this straight, Mr. Corwell." After a few conversations, Adrian asked obscure questions about purpose, Michael? Moore put it all directly on the table, "I talked to Harvey a while ago about a concept, a new documentary concept, and Harvey was very supportive of me. But this documentary involves information that many governments don't want the public to know about, a lot about the disaster the year before, so there's a lot of obstacles to production, not a lot of investment, and then Harvey says you might be interested. ”

He didn't see him talking, and Weinstein made a cover move next to him.

“Information about 9/11?” Adrian picked the eyebrows, and he had to look at Weinstein again, and the other guy snuck a smile.

“Yes, a lot of people resented Laden after the disaster, and Bush retaliated against Afghanistan immediately, but few knew that the Bush and Laden families were very close,” Moore said. “I'm sorry I can't come up with any more information right now, but I'm sure that 9/11 is definitely not as simple as I imagined, and there's a lot of complicated, shocking stuff in there, and I need to show the public what's going on in there and tell them what it's a civic responsibility! ”

Really... what can I say? Adrian shook his head in his heart unexpectedly, but kept a polite smile on his face.

“Mr. Moore, let me remind you. Mr. Bush, Jr., is a democratically elected President, and if he does this, neither Congress nor the people will let him go and the paper will never hold fire.” He said without hesitation.

Moore was stunned at first, probably not expecting Adrian to understand what he meant so quickly, while his face changed slightly, and he heard the hint of rejection he was hiding in the conversation.

“You're wrong. Mr. Corwell," He reinforces his tone, "it's not paper that wraps this flame, it's a sealed container, and if no one opens it, they won't know what's hidden in it, and I'm going to do it. Just open it for the public, for all who have the right to know the truth! ”

“Evidence, Mr. Moore, you have to prove with solid evidence that there is indeed such a container. Instead of speculating, the jury would not convict a person on the ground that 'there is no one else but him to do this'.” Adrian, open your hands.

Michael? Moore frowned and stared closely at Adrian behind the lens, and for such a long time he finally stood up.

“I knew it. You can't put hope in the conscience of a rich man,” Moore said, without courtesy, and patted Weinstein on the shoulder, "I'm sorry, Harvey, for wasting your kindness, but not everyone pays attention to what goes down when their social status improves, you're a good man. But not everyone is a good person. ”

After that, he walked out, Weinstein stood up and screamed a few times, and he never turned back.

Once again, Adrian shook his head unconsciously and did it very clearly. The guy was too arrogant to think he had the truth, making it difficult to hear opinions against or inconsistent with his own ideas, especially if it was a rich man, a super-rich man, giving him opinions that were 100 per cent wrong.

But he didn't have any aversion to him - of course, he didn't. From a director's and producer's point of view, Michael? Moore was a competent and even brilliant documentary director, not to mention the Columbine Bowling documentary he produced last year on the issue of firearms, which earned him a lot of accolades after it was screened, which probably fuelled his ambition by targeting the 9/11 events by combining interview clips from the Oklahoma bombings and the Columbine High School massacre with news stories, speeches and clips from many shootings.

In Adrian's opinion, Michael? Moore, at best, is a clear stream in the words of previous generations. His existence means picking pricks to reveal himself by picking government pricks. Because it's very simple, and you don't have to worry too much if you can hold the bottom line, nothing is perfect, you can always find a loophole if you want to, and the government has always been the target, especially the President of the United States.

Problem solving is the most important thing when it's easy to find a problem, but for the scavengers, it's not something they're good at, it's not something they want to manage, all they have to do is pick a prick. Of course, there are some solutions, but it's basically a slap in the head, and if it does, it only makes things worse. Of course, the scavengers won't admit it, they'll just argue, and the problem is that the solution isn't working.

Beyond that, Michael? While Moore's documentary raises sharp questions, it is not fair to say how fair it is. Documentary films are also made by people, and people always have their own positions, they have their own * *, Nathan is still in his head of "Fahrenheit 911," exposing the relationship between Bush and the Laden family is fine, it's okay to think that the collapse of the World Trade Building is fine, but saying that it was done by the United States government...

As I said before, this may be true, but the odds are very low, to the point of negligibility, because once proven, the foundations of the United States are likely to be shaken. But in memory, the documentary was short of naming the government itself as the director of the disaster. All the evidence, such as the vaults that were transferred under the World Trade, or the military's plans to defend the World Trade, seemed to be different.

If it were Adrian, if he really wanted to do something for the country for the victims, he would surely have gone against the government for negligence. There is no doubt that the Government has received information beforehand, but for some reason it has allowed terrorists to act in the Middle East or snipe the euro, for example. The result was a huge disaster.

As long as these things are proven, the government will have to peel off, and Bush will most likely be the fourth impeached president. But Moore made this conspiracy theory, and if Adrian hadn't had an intuitive impression from today's meeting, he might have thought he was an undercover CIA or FBI agent.

And, of course, Adrian understands that complete idealists either die early or change themselves after a bloody encounter in society. But after all, Moore took on some positive significance. At least let the public look at certain issues from a different perspective, and whether or not what is said is true or not, but he does dare to say so.

“Damn, how did that happen?” Weinstein sat back in his seat and moaned.

“You and Michael? Moore's relationship seems pretty good.” Adrian asked silently.

“Yes, Miramax helped him distribute the film back in '99.” Weinstein explained, sighing again.

Harvey, don't tell me you supported him in making the 9/11 documentary because of conscience. ”Adrian also stopped going around in circles and said unnecessarily.

“Why can't I be a conscience finder?” Weinstein questioned him immediately, but then raised his hands. “Well, I just thought the subject was valuable, especially after Mike told me about his idea, and maybe a little rough, but it would definitely cause a sensation when it was made. ”

Speaking of which, he blinked: "By the way, you can show the president a little color. ”

Although at the end of '00, he went online with the Bush family for the acquisition of at&t broadband. When little Bush finally struck the presidential throne, he did his best, but slowly faded and even turned cold more than a year later. Claude and his father would have preferred the Democratic Party to the White House, which would certainly have preferred a news group with closer ties to the Government, so this was inevitable.

And these Weinstein knew, after all, that when he was asked to help with the PR, Adrian had given him full authority to fully mobilize resources. Though he didn't know about some of the classifieds, the change in the relationship with the Bush family was somewhat familiar. That's why Weinstein said that, he was also a pro-democracy party, and he could use that pretext to bring Adrian in - which, of course, is definitely not his only reason.

“Really?” Adrian laughed, “Not only that, Harvey, this is a great opportunity to raise Miramax's reputation, do something no other film company dares to do, and let us endorse you. ”

Weinstein hey hey two laughs, not embarrassed by the fact that caution was unraveled.

“You've got a problem for me, Harvey,” Adrian sat up straight, "you should know how much trouble this is. ”

“I just want some support from AC Media on the issue, that's all.” Weinstein explained.

“That is the problem.” Adrian knocked softly on the table, "After all, we are big businesses, even if we appear neutral, and we have to consider the government's response to this kind of thing, especially after 9/11. ”

Weinstein was silent and Adrian knew that this would not persuade him. It had always been their brother's wish to make Miramax big and strong. If this documentary conceived by Moore could be released successfully, it would definitely cause a sensational effect, and Miramax, who did what other big movie companies couldn't, would be even brighter.

In a previous life, the Weinstein brothers fought back against Eisner and eventually left Miramax because of the unauthorized release of Fahrenheit 911, so it was almost impossible for him to give up.

However, this road is not clear, there are other ways to go.

“Want my advice?” Half an hour later Adrian asked softly.

“Of course.” Weinstein's eyes lit up, and without the endorsement of a powerful large group like AC Media, Miramax couldn't withstand the enormous pressure of a separate release, so even if he had a chance to get Adrian's support, he'd find a way to get it.

“Simply, you can continue to invest in Mr. Moore's documentary, and you can do it very sophisticated, and I can help a little bit more if you're out of budget.” Adrian said there was a bad laugh, "and then took the documentary to Cannes next year. ”

Weinstein was stunned and slowly split his mouth.

“I love the idea!” He had the same nasty smile on his face as Adrian.

With the constant urination of the French, he would never let go of any opportunity to show the face of the United States government, so Mr. Moore is likely to get a gold palm, and so it's easier to distribute a documentary with a huge reputation in the United States - in fact, that's what Fahrenheit 911 did in his previous life.

“But there's one thing I want to affirm,” Adrian suddenly shook his finger, “and I didn't know that from beginning to end! ”

“Hmm?” Weinstein stunned again, not responding.

“So when Miramax releases this documentary, the AC media will give you certain accusations and plan to punish you for your own claims, and Claude has a certain contradiction with your brother.” Adrian said slowly, word for word.

Speaking of which, how could Weinstein not understand what he meant, just...

“It's not fair, Ed!” He screamed bitterly, a fat face wrinkled together.
