King of Hollywood

A faint light flickered in the pitch-black projection hall, and if you looked carefully, you could still see dust floating in the air, but no one paid attention to these at the moment, and their attention was completely on the screen. And everyone held their breath. If it weren't for the sad sound of the violin echoing in the room, this place would probably be quieter than the cemetery.

Finally, the black and white picture turned into color, and as the last pebble was placed on the tombstone, the picture finally darkened, and then the production list slowly rose. The auditorium was still silent, and there was still no sound for a long time after the subtitles were completely played. Spielberg, who was sitting next to Adrian, could not help but grasp the armrest.

In the next second, there was a clap of applause, and then it spread from ten to ten, and there was no other sound in the entire reaction hall except for the extremely warm applause. I don't know who stood up first, and then the others also stood up, clapping their hands continuously in the direction of Spielberg, which made him so excited that he couldn't stand still, and almost sat back when he stood up just now Fortunately, Adrian helped him in time.

The applause lasted for more than ten minutes, and then the audience came over to shake hands or hug Spielberg one by one.

"A wonderful movie, the best movie about that tragic history I've ever seen."

"Congratulations, Steven, my eyes are wet for the first time from a movie."

"I never thought a black-and-white movie could have so much charm, Steven, you are a genius"

More and more people gathered around him, surrounded like the stars around the moon. And Spielberg has recovered his calm after the initial excitement, and greeted and chatted with them with a smile, very humble and gracious.

Not everyone ignored Adrian, these guys with an average age of over 60 are all old and sophisticated.

"Congratulations, Adrian, this is an excellent movie, a movie that cannot be praised in words." An old man in a suit and leather shoes passed Spielberg directly to Adrian and stretched out his hand.

"Thank you, Mr. Duval, but the real hero is there." After shaking hands, Adrian smiled and pointed to the big director in the crowd, "I just provided the funds. Without him, there would be no movie."

"Yes, I know that Steven has been preparing for this movie for ten years. It is really admirable. The quality of the movie did not waste his waiting, but without you, the movie might lose half of its color." Duval laughed said.

"That's right," another old man walked over with a smile, "The three best actors were all recommended by you, the only girl with color in the film was also your idea, and your warning to Steven And dissuasion, we are all aware of these."

"Firth and I are used to discussing everything after understanding all the details." Duval said with a smile.

"You have to know every detail of the other person, and then you can understand what he really wants, isn't that right?" Adrian casually recited a Jewish motto.

"Yes." The two old men showed admiring expressions, and then the one named Phils changed his face: "I want to thank you, Adrian, for your suggestion to Steven, to build a brand new Krakow Advice for the ghetto, very good."

"I just don't want those lost suffering souls to be disturbed again." Adrian also became serious.

"May they rest in peace." Seeing that the atmosphere became a little dignified, Duval immediately said, and then looked at Adrian after a pause: "If you need it, please let us know."

"I will." Adrian nodded with a smile, and he fully understood what the other party meant.

Today's trial screening is "Schindler's List", and dozens of people were invited to watch it, which is a bit too many for a trial screening. But it is necessary because they are all Jewish, and they are also directors or directors of major Jewish foundations

This is the strategy that was set at the beginning. They have considerable influence just as individuals, not to mention the forces behind them. Adrian spent a lot of effort to invite these old men. Fortunately, the previous relationship network not only recovered, but also developed wider with the help of Reggett and Claude, and the godfather also helped. , Spielberg also has some relations, and finally invited all the characters on the planned list.

As for the effect, judging from the situation just now, there is no need to say more. Now that it has been affirmed by these people, there is no need to worry about the propaganda work of "Schindler's List".

"Now you can basically rest assured." After all the people who participated in the trial screening left, Adrian said to Spielberg in a joking tone, "Everyone thinks this is an excellent movie."

"Yes, I know," Spielberg breathed a long sigh of relief, as if letting go of a big rock in his heart, "Although it's not officially released yet, I've really let it go, it's just the box office..."

"Don't worry, Steven, I don't even care, why do you care about it?" Adrian shook his head with a smile, then looked at him and said meaningfully: "Besides, what will happen in the end is not certain right now. , my goal is to make the whole world admire this movie."

Spielberg raised his eyebrows in surprise, but he was relieved immediately. He is not an idiot. How could Adrian fail to guess what the other party was thinking when he invited such a prestigious person to participate in the trial screening. Besides, speaking from the bottom of his heart, he also very much hopes that this movie can be watched and praised by more people, so that more people can understand the suffering of the Jews, and more people can be alerted. It can also... let him have a taste of his long-cherished wish

"Perhaps I should envy you, Ed, for taking everything into my own hands, so that no matter success or failure, I have the most accurate judgment." Spielberg said jokingly.

"Really? Why don't you set up a film company too." Adrian smiled and said casually.

"Form a film company?" Spielberg was stunned, before he could speak again, Adrian, who looked at the time, said goodbye to him: "Sorry, Steven, I still have arrangements, if I don't go , I am afraid that the staff will rebel."

"What makes your staff so dissatisfied." Spielberg asked curiously.

"It's a little thing, just... to be a guest star in a TV series produced by the company." Adrian shrugged helplessly.

Under the entanglement of the entire "Friends" crew and the six leading actors, Adrian finally agreed to play a guest role, but it was postponed again and again for various reasons, and the result was delayed until now. Even the honor of being the first celebrity to guest-star in "Friends" was snatched away by the host Jay Leno. It's the first thing to do. Besides, it's impossible for the crew to postpone the original plan again and again because of him. things.

Now that the first season is about to be filmed, Adrian will have to wait until the second season if he wants to postpone it, and the filming of the second season will have to wait until March or April next year at least, and God knows what arrangements he will have. So under the joint request of the entire crew of "Friends", Adrian had to temporarily put down what he was doing and finish the cameo work first.

He chose to play himself in the play, that is to say, Joey got the chance to audition for the new movie of the miracle director Adrian Cowell, and then a series of funny things came out of it.

Adrian originally wrote a plot himself, skipped the casting and let Joey get the role, but it was not an important role, and...

"Hey guys, what do you know, I passed the audition for director Miracle" Joey cheered and jumped into the room.

"He made a monkey?" Chandler teased, looking at him.

"No no no, Chandler, you'll never guess what role I'm playing." Joey took a deep breath, then opened his eyes wide, "I'm going to play Al Pacino's ass, you know, it's Al Pacino's ass." Sino's ass"

"Hmm..." Chandler thought for a moment, "Does Al Pacino have no butt?"

Funny plot, isn't it? In addition to Joy starring in Pacino's naked butt in Marvel's new movie, Adrian also borrowed some "King of Comedy" plots.

"Mr. Director, I think the character of this character is actually a little simple, so, can you add a little contradiction in the performance?" Joey showed off like this during the actual shooting.

"Oh, of course." Adrian replied casually, not caring about him at all, anyway, it was just the buttocks, no matter what contradictions he added.

There's also Dennis, who also plays himself, and will play a role in Marvel's new film. So he was on the set and watched the whole thing about Joey's cameo, and the first thing he said to Joey was, "Hey man, you have a nice ass."

"Of course, my ass is the best." Joey replied carelessly.

As a result, everyone on the set, including Adrian, looked at them with strange expressions. Dennis immediately realized his slip of the tongue, but Joey didn't realize anything, and kept saying that his friends, Ross and Chandler, thought so.

It's really a joke that can make people laugh while having goosebumps. Unfortunately, this plot was rejected by the crew in the end. As for the reason, since Adrian is a cameo, then stop dictating the script, wouldn't it be better to follow the crew's arrangement?

Obviously, they—especially the screenwriters—have been instructed by Adrian too many times, and they want to take this opportunity to try to instruct the boss. That being the case, Adrian could let them arrange it, and then he found that the people in the TV department were almost tempered. Although they didn't know how they were filming, they were still very successful in terms of screenwriting. Not only did he arrange a completely different plot for him in two days, but the level of humor is also very high.
