King of Hollywood

Chapter 213 is ready.

The National Treasure is a great movie, with decryption and action, theft and legend, and not intense enough for the whole family to sit in the cinema and watch. ([]) However, the box office was less impressive than the Pirates of the Caribbean series than the most popular films of the same period, so Adrian didn't think of this for a moment and a half.

And by the time he thought about it and was getting ready, Brookheimer was taking Copman to the door, the first time Adrian had encountered it in over a decade. But not surprisingly, in the past, he wanted to replicate movies and television dramas, even at the beginning of his career, so that people would gather information in advance to see if there were any ideas of the same kind, and then use all kinds of means to make the idea more widely known - it used to be by the writers' union, and it was easier with his own media group, so when he never intended to make a movie or television drama for so many years, the original author already had the idea.

And "National Treasure" came to his mind temporarily. Naturally, no investigation has begun, so there is no need to be too unexpected. After all, the world cannot work entirely with his heart. Of course, there is no shortage of talent as an Ace writer.

“… Gates is an archaeological adventurer, but he is not a criminal after all, so when Shaw intends to steal the * * Declaration, he decides not to participate. Of course, the two broke apart, and Gates escaped Shaw's persecution and went to Homeland Security, FIB and the National Archives with his own assistant. But none of these sectors believed, so in order to protect the * * Declaration from being undermined…"

“Gates and his assistant took the * * Declaration one step ahead of Shaw, preferably at a party at the National Archives, where Gates could meet the lead actress, either a true archaeologist or a director of the Archives, and in short, she could help Gates in that regard. Really?”

“… after using the children to trace the letters on the letters, they finally find that the remaining clues point to the * * clock, but they don't know when, which is another challenge. ”

“I remember a hundred dollars with a * * bell pattern on it, and I'm sure there's time to show that, since the whole story starts with a dollar note, it's also appropriate to insert a hundred dollar notes in the middle for guidance. Right?"

Normal dialogue comes to a close in this context, and every time Kopman speaks the key. Adrian always gets it right, and every time he says something, it doesn't make much difference from what he thinks. So finally, Copman sighed and looked at Brookheimer, who laughed.

“How's it going, Brian? I told you Ed would see the value of your script.” That's what he said.

“Yes, Mr. Corwell is the best writer in Hollywood.” Copman shrugged his shoulders in comfort.

“Actually, I just happen to be working on a story about treasure, and I'm working on the * * Declaration, just an idea. There are some details, but there are no specific outlines, and your idea just inspired me, so I just took a breath to make it up to you.” Adrian said it very naturally, and his face was not blushing.

“So, can this be settled?” Brookheimer said while it was hot.

“Sure, but I might have to postpone it a little bit, and I've got some things to think about, and you've got the last two songs of Pirates of the Caribbean to do, like, postpone it until next year, right?” Adrian laughed, “I've already thought of a book? Franklin? The right guy for Gates. ”

This made the two people in front of them beam down, and then the two of them revealed their emotional beauty, as if they were miracle directors.

Now that he's spoken like that, Brookheimer does have a movie to do. So it's settled, and then it's up to Cage himself.

“Brian, if you have time, think about what you should do if you're going to write a sequel.” Adrian added this before Copman left.

Copman corrupted, then happily answered, obviously the miracle director watched the film, and the miracle director watched, almost never failed.

It's the only way to get him there, and if Cage can't learn the lesson, then there's nothing Adrian can do.

In addition to Match Man, Summer in Jeans was shown at this time because of the low cost and the lack of visibility of the actors, so there was no premiere. Of course, the publicity is still very good, the box office is slightly better than the original, and the reputation is as good as ever.

“Frankly, you're doing great, Lipton, and movie critics are always praising you for your performance.” Adrian sitting in a lounge chair under a pool umbrella, right, lying down by the pool after drilling out of the water? Maester said.

“It's just good, not as good as Alexis, not as good as Amanda.” Lipton mumbled and said, seemingly dissatisfied.

Adrian couldn't help laughing at the four actresses in "Summer in Jeans," um, four and a half actresses, including a little girl with leukemia, by Christine? Stewart plays because of the character setting and the right temperament at the moment, so she's more eye-catching in the movies.

Anyway, of the four and a half actresses, Megan doesn't say that it's going to take a long time to make a vase. Alexis has at least a lot of experience in performing, and this character matches her very well, so it's the best. Amanda is not as experienced as Alexis, but she doesn't intend to give up any of the opportunities and Adrian obviously prefers capable women, so she works very hard and gets only a little worse than Alexis.

In this case, Lipton can only rank third. In fact, for her, it's already very good to be judged before Christine. The younger she is, the more she performs, and her previous performance in Chestnut Space is impressive. So what upsets Lipton is Amanda, who's been on Adrian a lot more nights than she is, but she's made several movies, and she's starred in two of these two weeks, and the reviews are good, of course Lipton won't be happy.

Then the girl jumped out of the water. Her swimsuit was basically a rope, pulled from top to bottom, and covered only three points, which made no difference from looking naked. But it's actually much more attractive than being completely naked. Prior to that, Lipton either wore nothing or only leggings while swimming in front of Adrian, but Adrian told her she preferred it, and she immediately changed her style.

From this point of view, Lipton is very obedient, so Adrian doesn't mind meeting her requirements, let alone...

“Give me a lead, will you?” Lieton lay down on Adrian's chest and slowly twisted his green body, which had not completely faded, "without too high a box office and a reputation, I... I just wanted to be the lead actor. ”

“No problem." Adrian promised, quickly making the girl a little unbelievable.

“You deserve it,” he laughed. And the conversation goes, “By the way, how was your day at Burbank High School, the last time you said Blake pulled some more cheerleaders to her side, and it was more common than yours? ”

“It is only by virtue of some of her parents' relationships that this advantage is gained.” When I heard that name, Lipton gave me a disdainful look, "If it was a fair fight, I would never lose to her, and...”

She took a deep look at Adrian and shook her lower body more often: "If you support me, I'm going to win her easy. ”

Hear that. Adrian couldn't help laughing softly, and Lipton was disappointed, but opened his eyes to something.

“Ed,” she climbed up, her face flashed with excitement, "do you want to play with her? ”

“Oh?” Adrian picked his eyebrows with interest.

“I knew her well, after all, we were rivals, even though she had a boyfriend in school. But because I'm breaking up soon, I'm sure she hasn't slept with him, and you must be very interested in her.” Lipton looked at him carefully and said.

“What do you think of our last trick?” Adrian Moore's chin suddenly asked, “Perhaps I can give you a little follow-up. ”

Lipton's beam revealed an ecstasy: “She'll hook it up, I promise. ”

Adrian nodded satisfactorily, sending Lipton to Burbank shortly to see the real story and make some ideas? It is time to prepare for the harvest.

Of course, with that in mind, there was still a while to go, so his attention was still on the film, and by late September, when the summer break was about to end and the fall slot of the TV show had begun, the well-publicized "Julie and Julia" had finally been premiered in New York.

Adrian didn't attend. He only went there the next day. As for the reason...

“... Natalie showed her amazing talent again when I watched this movie in my seat, Julie? When Powell restored a piece of food Julia once described on TV, he had no idea that she was just a 22-year-old girl and a vegetarian. That mature, simple sense of contradiction was perfectly reflected in her, and when she showed up in the movie, she was the one who couldn't find her goal by the age of 30, but was curious about a lot of things, and wanted to keep trying? Powell, even though she and Stripe had no rivalry in the movie, the acting they showed didn't lose to each other at all, as if they were fighting each other decades apart, a classic.” After reading this, Adrian threw the newspaper on the table and smiled as Natalie stood on the balcony.

Young girls only wear striped pajamas and white underpants, their legs are exposed to the outside, their toes are on the floor, naked and they have no shoes, although the curves on their calves are not perfect, they are also quite seductive. She just leaned against the railing and enjoyed the breeze in the morning light, showing a different smell every time she reached for her blown hair.

“Most of them are good reviews, and you're doing really well, Nada, which was a big surprise to me.” Adrian walked up to her and held her in her arms from behind, "I thought when I was watching the specimen. The scene where you re-made the French red risotto was brilliant, and the sense of intoxication was clearly conveyed to me, and now to these film critics. ”

“I did it myself several times.” Natalie said faintly.

“I know, you're talented and you're trying very hard - I heard your father had a fight with you over this?” Adrian kissed her gently in the ear.

“It's normal, no quarrel is an accident one day," Natalie glanced at him, "it's just a small thing, I just ate a little meat like you asked me to. ”

“That's good living habits," Adrian laughed. And then some greed took a deep breath in the back of her neck, "Look at you now, not fat, not skinny, fitting, getting fascinating. ”

Natalie was silent and only half-way through the night did she say, "I can only perform wholeheartedly. ”

Adrian in his ear didn't care: "Yes, I know, so I chose to come here today. Instead of attending last night's premiere, just so you know, I'm ready to get started. ”

“Shall we begin?” Natalie turned around immediately and looked at him incredibly, although a few seconds ago she still looked plain.

“Of course, I've said it before. Turn it on at the latest this month.” Adrian laughed, it's kind of profound, "and everything I've done so far, including" Julie and Julia, "which was shown last night, is paving the way for next year. ”

Despite some discomfort in his eyes, Natalie revealed her expectations. After all, she knows exactly what that means. She had lost a lot of money walking along the way, and although she hated Adrian, she knew there was no alternative to relying on him if she wanted to get what she wanted.

“In a few months, as long as Julie and Julia bring what they deserve, what happens next year, or early '05, will be essentially fine.” Adrian then added.

Of course, that's not true, even though he's counted in Hollywood, but if he holds Sophie to the throne of the best actress this year, the award will basically be his for the sixth consecutive year. It's really hard to predict how the Academy will react to this. Although he still has some cards, Natalie's reputation won't work easily if she doesn't have a certain level of reputation, so he managed to find a suitable movie for her to play in front of before coming out.

He hasn't been particularly fond of Julie and Julia before, but he hasn't been more suitable for the time being. I had to use this. At present, however, the result of this decision seems to be very good, not to mention the reputation. Based on the story he just read, the film critics are basically shouting well. Although none of them gave a full score, the movie plot is still somewhat warm, the food is attractive, and the theme is inspiring and the shooting technique is very good, but the fluctuations are not much. On a very large scale, however, the ratings of the film critics were basically 7.5 to 8, which was unexpectedly consistent, and the film was still very desirable in this regard.

The box office is equally acceptable, the first four digits and exhibitors are flat, and for a medium investment movie it's already good, and it's quite possible to go back to the North American box office alone. There is a reputation and there is a box office, it will become popular next year with just a little bit of operation, and then the rest is PR. The nomination of the best female partner should be fine, as long as it doesn't come true.

As a result, next year there will be a good show, and the card will play a bigger role in his hands, thus making an important contribution to his plans for the end of 05 and the beginning of 06.

Of course, these Natalies don't know, and with her intelligence, she can certainly analyze what Adrian is going to be facing, but she chose to believe. In addition to the fact that the analysis of the fire scene had given her quite a shock, Adrian had been so impressed in the last few years, not to mention that he had one actress after another to climb the throne of Oscar's best actress, and Natalie had watched him grow from a small film company to a huge media group in a decade.

Although she had no access to the classified information, the most basic collation and analysis was possible. Adrian had done almost nothing wrong and had basically driven the development of ABC and Globe by himself, so even with Natalie's sanity, it was inevitable that the idea of “this man can't resist" and "if he wants to do it, he can do it."

“I'm ready.” Natalie finally replied.

So, this description, Johnny? Cash and his wife Joan? Carter's, the loving and inspiring film "Never Been Forward" was launched at the end of September. Well, wait, Adrian had one more thing to take care of before he officially turned it on, and when he went to the studio to check it out, he stumbled upon Sophie, who had been refusing to tell him about it, who was directing his second short film, and finally figured out how she had modified it.

When Adrian initially gave it to her, it was called "Supermarket Night Sleepless," which was the best short film nominated by Oscar, depicting a man who had been hired as a night salesman at a supermarket because of a broken heart. In order to spend eight hours in a boring night, he knitted stories in his heart while observing strange guests.

A very sophisticated little film with some unspeakable obscurity does not affect viewing, and although it was later expanded into a complete film, in many people's eyes it tastes better.

Adrian handed this to Sophie as the scenes and stories were relatively simple and all that needed attention was the rhythm of the grasp and the handling of the images. Who knew that when Sophie got it, it had changed dramatically and didn't let him know, so eventually the lead was changed to the lead actress, and even more surprisingly, the guy in the role was Caden? Cross! (to be continued...)
