King of Hollywood

"Don't you think he's going too far?" Charlize couldn't help asking after walking out of the conference room, and then looked at Lavern who was still in the conference room, "Laver didn't even stop you."

"Who? Tom?" Adrian smiled disapprovingly, "It's okay, it's just a script. Although it will definitely make a lot of money, I can come up with many such scripts at any time."

This seemingly arrogant remark made Charlize speechless for a moment, but she did not refute it. After all, it is entirely possible to say such a remark based on Adrian's achievements.

"Okay, Charlie, don't worry about these anymore, not everyone will see their position clearly at all times." Adrian said with a smile. From a career point of view, Tom Cruise still has a lot to offer, at least he takes his work seriously and is willing to work hard for his goals, such as in "Born on the Fourth of July" The two speech scenes in the wheelchair are really good. But when it comes to dealing with people, this guy occasionally seems too free-wheeling. It shouldn't be like this before, but after becoming more and more famous...it's normal, people always change.

It doesn't matter, give him what he wants. Adrian shrugged imperceptibly. Anyway, I don't lack this movie, besides... Hehe. The only regret is that I promised too quickly just now. If it spreads, others will think that I am easy to talk, and then flock to it, which will be very troublesome. But it doesn't matter, anyway, we still need to continue to negotiate the conditions, and we can set up a gate on it. Needless to say, investment, at least half of the copyright must be taken, and the right to adapt must be temporarily held in hand, etc.

"You think it's better for you to pay attention to other things, Charlie. You know, I have a lot to ask about." Adrian, who returned to the office, said with a smile before Charlize, who still wanted to say something, said.

Charlize had no choice but to roll her eyes and close her mouth, followed by a popping sound.

The "Ed" girl frowned and shouted reproachfully, but before she could make a move, Adrian had already hugged her waist from behind, and then gently kneaded her buttocks.

"It still feels so good." Adrian raised his head and said in an aria-like tone with a smile, then lowered his head and kissed the back of Charlize's neck lightly, and then returned to the office with a laugh behind the desk.

Charlize glared at him angrily, bit her lip and walked out angrily, but she still did what she had to do.

Adrian immediately calmed down and continued to deal with his work. The current three films are basically progressing according to the scheduled regulations, and the rest is the premiere of "Schindler's List" before Christmas. Although the current version of "Schindler's List" is not much different from the one in his memory, in terms of popularity before the release and the public's curiosity about it, it far surpasses it because he is willing to invest in it. In the past, since this is the case, the premiere ceremony must be done well.

In addition, both "Bad Boys" and "Interview with the Vampire" have completed filming. "Bad Boys" took about 3 months, and Bruckheimer is working with Michael Bay to edit the film. , almost halfway done. "Interview with the Vampire" is much worse. It took about 5 months to shoot alone. After all, there are not many shots shot in the studio, and the location is a bit scattered. Other things, so the shooting was closed not long ago, and the post-production has just started now.

There is a very interesting point here. The script of "Interview with the Vampire" started when the reporter interviewed Louis, and River Phoenix played this role. Although Adrian has the title of producer, he basically put The authority was delegated, and except for a few important roles that he appointed, the director Jordan was in charge of everything else, so Jordan found Rui Fan, and then finished filming this scene in August.

"Interesting, does this mean that I am destined to save him?" Adrian rubbed his chin thoughtfully, because of the series of events on Halloween, he remembered a lot about Rui Fan One of them is that the crew of "Interview with the Vampire" in the previous life originally planned to cast Rui Fan as the reporter, but he died before the filming started, so the crew had to find someone else. Compared with the current situation, it is really interesting , isn't it?

"This should be a kind of butterfly effect." Adrian suddenly laughed after digging through Rui Fan's information, "I just didn't expect to get in touch so early. I should pray to fate and praise it. Unfathomable?"

Although he was not a staunch atheist in his previous life, he never placed his hope in any god, but when he got up from the bathroom after reorganizing his memory, he immediately overturned this argument. However, Adrian does not believe in God. Even if he is a Christian now, he just maintains his own awe of those unknown forces, and firmly believes that this unknown force is on his side. Because although fate is unpredictable, this power allows him to see a trace.

Well, let’s not talk about these idealistic things. Although the two films have not yet been completed, they are both works that are fully entrusted to others, so there is no need to keep informed about the situation at all times.

As for other aspects, on the record company's side, the Super Boys formed because of Adrian gained a very high popularity after the first shot, only slightly inferior to the Backstreet Boys launched by VE Records at the same time. I believe Grace Nominations for the best newcomer group in the United States are absolutely indispensable. However, the Backstreet Boys will definitely get this nomination too. This is a strong competitor. Compared with them, Adrian’s version of Superboy is not very good in terms of fit. After all, they don’t have enough talents like the Backstreet Boys Much cooperation time.

It doesn't matter, anyway, they were only formed to open up the situation for the record company, if it doesn't work, they will disband, and then cultivate a new group. Adrian thought so, and at the same time he was looking for an opportunity in his mind. It might be a good idea to acquire VE Records.

As for Britney and Christina who are still in training, due to the success of Superboy, the record company has attracted many newcomers and signed several young female singers. Also has a lot of popularity. All these made the two girls work harder, because Adrian would watch them every time he came to the record company, and kept telling them that he signed them because he saw their great potential, so don't let him disappointment.

The surname Huang once said that a lie repeated a thousand times becomes the truth. This is the simplest and most effective way of brainwashing. However, certain skills are also required. For example, the person who is brainwashed should preferably be someone who is familiar with and recognized by the person being brainwashed, just like Adrian. Of course, the differentiation should still be maintained, and it can't be too much. Adrian is doing very well now, and sometimes he really wants to know what kind of fruit will be borne in a few years.

Well, this is the matter of the record company, and the publishing company, because it acquired another publishing company before, it has become stronger after the merger, and it has basically been able to occupy a position among the top publishers in the United States.

The novel version of "Piano Lesson" is now on the market. In addition, there are many good novels published. The two novels "Resident Evil" and "Tomb Raider" that opened the company's situation at the beginning have already been released got a sequel. But now it is basically written by the second-rate writer Ben Arndt who co-wrote with Adrian, and Adrian only occasionally provides some ideas and suggestions. Here I have to say that the fate is interesting. This second-rate writer was inspired by these two novels, and a collection of short science fiction novels he created alone sold quite well.

Adrian admired him very much, but what he admired even more were the producers in Hollywood. Ever since "The Matrix" became a bestseller in the "New York Times", some filmmakers immediately approached the publishing company to buy it. Film adaptation rights.

Although some producers wanted to buy the film adaptation rights of "Resident Evil" and "Tomb Raider" before, they were all very small film companies, but this time it was different, Miramax Needless to say, New Line, Columbia also stepped in, which is really surprising, they are so optimistic about this novel.

Of course, whether it is "Resident Evil", "Tomb Raider" or "The Matrix", Adrian will not sell the film adaptation rights. Just kidding, he owns a good film company, why should he sell the film adaptation rights? Besides, let’s not talk about “The Matrix”, it was originally written to occupy space, “Resident Evil” and “Tomb Raider” became popular entirely through games, without games, it may be difficult to adapt them into movies Fans - maybe even more popular, but who knows?

But when it comes to games, Adrian is very depressed about the game studio that has been bought in his own name and has been renamed Blizzard. It went well, and Adrian made a lot of comments in private.

The main reason is that after he dismantled Pixar's game department, he pulled some Blizzard employees to form a department dedicated to his ideas. After finally producing some scenes of "Resident Evil", he was a little bit disappointment.

Needless to say, the textures are close to the cartoon style, and the decryption mechanism is not set up as expected. The key point is that the character design is very different from the original version that Adrian remembers. It's no wonder that the character design of European and American games has never been similar to that of Asian games. It is normal for Adrian to feel weird.

However, no matter how dissatisfied, that’s the only way to go. You can’t correct a group of people’s long-established concepts. Since you chose to let an American game studio produce it, you have to accept their works.
