King of Hollywood
Chapter 124 Result of Commissioning
The next day, almost all the entertainment media's front pages were headlines like "The youngest winner of the Palme d'Or has been released, the 24-year-old American director Adrian Cowell won the highest honor at the Cannes Film Festival".
Both the American film industry and the European film industry were taken aback by this news. Although some people predicted that "Pulp Fiction" might win the Palme d'Or, when it really fell into the hands of Adrian, people still I couldn't help but marvel, because he was so young.
Originally thought that the 26-year-old Steven Soderbergh who won the Palme d'Or with "Sex, Lies and Videotape" in 1989 was young enough, but he did not expect that 24-year-old Adrian would break the record three years later.
After becoming the youngest winner of the Palme d'Or, Soderbergh once won the title of "prodigy director", and he was in the limelight for a while. But now that Adrian has broken the record, how should he describe it? no one knows.
While Soderbergh's award-winning work is his first novel, it is amazing that Adrian is more controversial and attracts people's attention. A kid from a rich family, who lost his parents at a young age, was a wild girl earlier, and suddenly woke up and picked up a video camera to become a screenwriter and director. Then he produced three low-cost and high-grossing films in just two years. He has his own film production company but prefers the cult style of independent films, but it has a humanistic atmosphere, so he became the youngest Oscar nominee for best director. By.
In the face of such an achievement - still completely inexperienced, and then achieved in two years or even a year and a half. No matter who it is, it is difficult for anyone to give a suitable definition and description. Before that, the title of wizard director could barely be placed on his head, but after he broke the record and became the youngest winner of the Palme d'Or, it is obvious that Not quite right.
"This is such an amazing guy, his existence seems to be designed to subvert our perception, if not for his fourth movie is currently stillborn." An American newspaper wrote.
Well, they never forgot to say a few words about this matter at any time, but the public has temporarily ignored these, especially those fans who are paying attention to the progress of the film festival, and can't wait to see Adri What kind of movie is Ann's latest cult-style work? Many of their own fans who started paying attention to Adrian during "Two Smoking Barrels" even wrote to Bosworth Films, asking when "Pulp Fiction" will be released.
There are many such fans in Europe. A British media conducted a survey in a cult film club, and all the club members expressed their desire to see this movie as soon as possible.
"I have to admit that this miraculous young man attracted everyone's attention the moment he got the Palme d'Or." The British media, who got such an adjustment result, summed it up in the program.
The closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival was held on the third day after the award ceremony. Reporters began to contact the crew of "Pulp Fiction" who was about to return, hoping to interview Adrian, but these requests were declined without exception. .
"Mr. Adrian has other things to deal with." The head of the crew answered the reporter's question in this way.
The reporters were obviously dissatisfied with the answer, so they huddled outside the hotel where the crew stayed all day long, trying to make a surprise attack before they returned. But these guys soon discovered that Adrian was not in the crew, and he didn't show up until the entire "Pulp Fiction" crew left Cannes, and the news came from the United States quickly, and he was not found in the crew returning to Los Angeles. The figure of the young director.
Obviously, it is impossible for Adrian to stay in the crew in disguise, because there is no need for this, so he must have left Cannes before that, where did he go?
"Thank you for your efforts, Mr. Wilson. I am very satisfied with your work." After flipping through the documents, the man in a windbreaker and a wide-brimmed hat reached out to the middle-aged man behind the desk.
He has a very striking big nose, with a pair of large black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and two mustaches sticking crookedly to his lips, making it obvious that he was dressed like this on purpose.
"It's my honor to be of service to you, Mr. Sanger." Dean Wilson heaved a sigh of relief. The commission had already taken him almost a year. Already gave up.
"By the way, Mr. Wilson, are you interested in accepting another commission?" the other party suddenly spoke again.
Dean, who was tidying up his desk, stopped immediately, and after thinking for a while, he asked tentatively, "Or looking for someone?"
"Yes," the other party nodded, "but the person I'm looking for this time is in mainland China."
"Mainland China?" Dean was stunned for about ten seconds, then shook his head: "Sorry, Mr. Sanger, I'm afraid I can only refuse you. If the person you are looking for is in Hong Kong, I can think of a way. But mainland China..."
Speaking of this, he suddenly laughed and spread his hands.
"Don't worry, Mr. Wilson," the other party laughed, but his outrageous and weird face made his smile look very weird, "This time the information is very detailed, you just need to find the place where the information is given to see if there is any information. If there is no one to look for, if there is a general survey of him—preferably with a photo—that’s enough, no connection is needed.”
"Just like that?" Dean looked a little puzzled.
"Yes, that's it, very simple." The other party nodded, "The commission is the same as last time."
Hearing this sentence, Dean was a little moved, so he asked tentatively: "Such a simple matter can be done by just anyone, right? Why do you have to entrust me to do it?"
"Because you are a professional," the other party shrugged, "and you have just completed my commission, so you can be trusted."
Seeing that Dean was silent, the other party immediately said: "I will bring the information with me, you can read it first and then make a decision."
As he said that, he took out a file bag from the package and handed it to Dean. The private detective was unambiguous, and immediately opened it and flipped it over. There was not much information, and it only took him a few minutes to read it.
"Is that all?" Dean asked after pondering for a while.
"That's all, as I said just now, I just want to know if there is such a person, if so, what he is doing now, and what kind of life he is living. Of course, it is best to come back with photos." Spread your hands.
"Okay, I've accepted the commission." After thinking for a long time, Dean nodded.
After coming out of the office, the man got into his car, started the engine and drove for a while, looked in the rearview mirror, and turned into a British-style alley. After waiting at the side of the road for a while, he took off his fake nose, fake beard, black-rimmed glasses, windbreaker and hat and put them into the backpack in the back seat.
"Fortunately, I don't need to come here often, otherwise I will definitely be bored to death." Adrian sighed, cleaned up his face slightly in the rearview mirror, and combed his hair again, then drove out of the alley .
On the morning of the second day of the film festival awards ceremony, he left Cannes in disguise and drove to Nice, and then flew from Nice to London. Only a few people in Lavern knew about this itinerary, and the reporters naturally couldn't catch him.
Now that the Palme d'Or has been obtained, there is no need for him to stay any longer. It is more appropriate to hurry up and prepare for the last movie of this year. After this movie is completed, he can completely relax for a long time. As for the promotion of "Pulp Fiction", of course, Laverne can only work hard. In view of his excellent public relations ability, Adrian has already discussed it with Claude. Laverne deserves it, and none of them will few.
Originally, he wanted to take Monica to London with him, but considering various reasons, he gave up this plan.
The first thing to do after arriving in London was to go to the Wilson office in disguise to meet the private detective. As early as half a month ago, the other party had already faxed the most similar female profile, but Adrian was preparing to The matter of the Cannes Film Festival, so I had to postpone it until now.
After having a detailed face-to-face conversation with Dean Wilson, and carefully and repeatedly analyzing the information collected by the other party, Adrian had to confirm that the woman the other party found was JK Rowling. The reason why the word "have to" is used is because JK Rowling has not yet married her first husband - she is still discussing marriage, and her daughter does not know where she is yet. This is one of the reasons why it took Dean so long to find it.
This situation is not an ordinary trouble. After much deliberation, I can only choose to temporarily put it aside and let things develop, otherwise God knows if there will be any changes due to the butterfly effect. Of course, two-handed preparation is still needed. Adrian does not allow problems in his plan, so he still needs to take time to plan carefully.
However, it can be seen from this that Dean Wilson's abilities are indeed good, and he can still find the person he is looking for under such circumstances, so Adrian simply entrusted him with the affairs of China. Although he firmly believes that there will be no other self in this time and space, this is a matter of his heart. No matter what, he grew up in that land in his previous life, so it is a wish for people to visit.
After driving for about 20 minutes, when the street scene changed from a residential area to a commercial area and then to a residential area, Adrian finally slowed down and finally parked the car on the side of the road. He looked in the rearview mirror again to make sure he was not being rude, then grabbed another backpack on the back seat, grabbed Winnie the Pooh from it, and got out of the car with the chubby doll into the street to the door of the apartment.
The ding-dong bell was rang, and Adrian let out a long breath. Soon he would face a trouble, and this trouble was one of the main reasons he came to London.
I don't know what it will be like. Just as I was thinking this, the door in front of me opened. ()
