King of Hollywood

Chapter 91 Unexpected

"William Wallace? Scottish independence? Adrian must have short-circuited his brain if he chose this subject. Let's not talk about the inevitable connection between William Wallace and Scottish independence. The subject of Scottish independence alone will not Please, if this is true, I will no longer support him." A reporter in the UK expressed this after hearing the news.

Of course, there are people who have different opinions: "Maybe Robert Bruce was introduced through William Wallace. It is said that the name of the movie is "Braveheart". Robert Bruce had this title when he was fighting for Scottish independence."

However, there are only a small number of journalists or critics who hold this view. Most of them think this subject is boring. It will cause controversy and be easily criticized. It should not be the subject of a miracle director. Ordinary people in the UK don't think so much.

"Who cares so much, as long as it looks good." The British youth interviewed on the street said nonchalantly, "His movies are always good-looking, cool or touching, I like him, it's just a movie. "

Americans think this is a very interesting topic: "Adrian probably became interested in history when he was making "Forrest Gump", so he wanted to try to shoot ancient war scenes. In view of some similarities, It is also very reasonable to choose the theme of Scotland's struggle for independence."

The last sentence naturally implies that the United States is also independent from the United Kingdom. Coupled with the mockery and schadenfreude implied between the lines, it can be figured out that the Americans are looking for a good show. I have to say that it is really interesting. On the one hand, Americans always like to move closer to the British and want to make themselves look more like British; laugh at. Some like the rebellious son and the conservative father.

In addition, Chinese people also got involved. Who told Miracle Director to use Sophie Marceau as the heroine—I heard that he invited her to play a supporting actress in a certain movie recently—William Wallace also Well, whether Scotland is independent or not, they are not the focus of their attention. They just want to know who Sophie is playing.

"Although there are many princesses married to the United Kingdom in history, none of them were suitable during the period from William Wallace's uprising to being captured and beheaded to Scotland's independence. So who will be the princess played by Sophie?" The media asked about such a topic, and it was debated endlessly for a while.

The only one who can make the entertainment media of several countries argue for a movie that has so little news that it has not yet been released is probably only the miracle director Adrian. However, the debate is arguing, but it is not too intense, and it is completely incomparable with that in 1992. After all, neither Bosworth Films nor Adrian himself admitted on any occasion, and Russell Crowe, the leading actor, and Sophie Marceau, the leading actress, also kept silent about it. So the media are still only at the stage of speculation, but because they have not denied it, the speculation has continued. The gossip mentality of the media and the public is not so easy to eliminate.

"This is tantamount to promoting "Braveheart." Adrian didn't care. It was for this reason that he deliberately let people release the news secretly.

However, Russell Crowe has gained the most from this controversy. He was originally a second- and third-tier actor. During this time, no matter where he meets reporters, he will be caught asking some questions about "Braveheart" , Such a sought-after situation did not even happen when he was selected as the leading actor in "Braveheart". Although Russell Crowe was excited, he didn't get dizzy. He kept his tongue and didn't reveal a word. He was much smarter than some people.

"Don't you think it's a little weird? I'm talking about football with a little girl (note: this refers to rugby)?" In the large and bright conference room, Tom Cruise said frowning while flipping through the script.

"So I changed the age to 11. Besides, there are quite a few girls who like football." Adrian, who was sitting on the seat, shrugged and looked at the others, "Are there any other questions?"

"But Ed..." Cruise wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Adrian unceremoniously: "Okay, Tom, that's it."

A trace of hidden anger flashed in Cruise's eyes, and after thinking about it, he endured it: "Well, you have the final say."

The tone remains basically stable, and you can't hear anything strange if you don't listen carefully. Adrian couldn't help but raised his eyebrows in surprise, his emotions were well controlled. His eyes then moved to the expressionless female agent next to Cruise. This woman is indeed very good at packaging and is a talent.

Unexpectedly, in less than two minutes, Cruise stood up again: "Since there is no business for me, then I will leave first, Ed."

As he said, he stretched out his hand in front of Adrian with a smile, as if he was leaving because of the previous incident at all, and his manager made a concealed gesture of holding his forehead.

Hey man, I just complimented you, can't you keep it up for a few more minutes? Adrian laughed in his heart, stood up and shook hands with him indifferently: "Then I won't delay you, Tommy."

In fact, what Cruise said is right. After passing the question just now, the preliminary preparations for the movie "Mr. Sweetheart" are basically completed, and the filming can start after Halloween. So after he left, he said some more details, and the meeting was almost over.

"Your daughter's audition was very good, Melanie, a girl with a lot of spirit, and I hope it will be the same after the official filming begins." Adrian said to a middle-aged woman in her thirties after announcing the end of the meeting.

"Thank you, Mr. Adrian, she will definitely keep it up." Melanie said with a smile, happy that her daughter could play an important role in the work that Director Miracle had chosen.

Melanie Sloane is a producer in New York. When she first produced "Amateur Thief", because the story happened in New York, most of the exterior scenes were shot there, so she needed a relatively cheap one with good ability and familiarity with New York. The producer of the situation, and finally someone recommended Melanie. To be honest, her abilities can only be considered average, but Adrian used her without hesitation and invited her to work in Los Angeles after the production

Faced with such an invitation, how could Melanie, who wanted to show up, refuse? Moreover, she has four children, two boys, two girls, and the youngest daughter who has the most acting talent and wants to show up in the entertainment industry. She has already made guest appearances in some stage plays or TV dramas before, and she is determined to make her youngest daughter a star. If she can establish a good relationship with the director of Miracle, she will have more opportunities.

So after Adrian revised the script of "Mr. Sweetheart" and raised the 6-year-old boy to a 13-year-old girl, ready to start casting among young actors in Hollywood, Milani immediately recommended it. own daughter. Fortunately, Director Miracle took a fancy to her daughter and invited her to be an executive producer in charge of some affairs. The original choice was indeed correct.

However, what Melanie did not expect was that the reason why Adrian would modify the script now was to create conditions for her daughter by replacing the boy who originally fit the story with a girl. age? In fact, inviting Melanie to work in Los Angeles is also for this reason.

"Hey, Kate, I just said a few words, and you ran outside." After coming out of the conference room, Adrian trotted all the way to catch up with Blanchett.

"What's the matter? I thought you had nothing to explain." Blanchett raised her eyebrows in surprise.

"It's true that there are no work matters, but there are still many personal matters." Adrian smiled and held her hand, "How about going out for a stroll and having dinner together after I finish work? You have rejected me several times."

"This..." Blanchett hesitated, a complex look flashed in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and chose to refuse: "Sorry, I have other plans tonight, Ed."

"Really?" Adrian asked calmly, without showing disappointment like before, just looking at her quietly.

Blanchett became a little flustered for no reason, opened his mouth a few times but didn't say a word, stared blankly at him for a while, and finally sighed: "Okay, I'll reject that arrangement, so we can ?"

"Great." Adrian immediately waved his arms excitedly, pulled Blanche into his arms involuntarily, and kissed her on the cheek, regardless of the people coming and going in the aisle.

"Ed" Blanchett called out angrily, but sighed again in her heart. She couldn't tell whether Adrian was pretending or sincere, but... that's not important anymore.

The current situation is that "Mr. Sweetheart" can start shooting soon, while "The English Patient" and "Zorro's Mask" are still in preparation. After all, these two films are much more complicated. Adrian is not in a hurry, anyway, he has been following up and grasping the situation, and then enjoys it from time to time. Braveheart continues to be debated, especially since the first poster was released.

It was the poster that was modeled after the original version, with Russell Crowe standing on the battlefield with his head thrown back and his sword held back, with the flames blazing behind him. There is no obvious introduction background, and the pattern painted on the face has also been cancelled. Don't worry about being interpreted from it. Naturally, it is now used to create momentum for the movie.

In the plan, "Emma" is best released before Thanksgiving, so as to free up space, so post-editing has to be sped up, and arrangements for test screenings have to be stepped up. Besides——

"Really? Do you want me to come a few more times?" Adrian said to Claude on the other end of the phone with a laugh on the balcony, the moon's sunshine was still warm.

"It's a pity, so let's do it, work hard, man, don't let me down." After talking a long time, he finally hung up the phone.

After the acquisition, Claude immediately began to integrate the company's business. Because Adrian supported him, the two had absolute power on the board of directors, so the integration did not encounter too many obstacles. Of course, this has nothing to do with Claude's wrist. After several years of training, he has grown rapidly in this area, and he also picked up some of the ratings during the debate about "Braveheart"—— After all, as a subsidiary company, their news is naturally faster and more accurate—although there is only a little bit, which is enough to make people look forward to the broadcast of the TV series and reality show.

Everything is developing in the direction they expected, so Adrian asked Claude with a smile, do you want to let this kind of argument happen a few more times?

"I love this world." Facing the bright sunshine, Adrian stretched comfortably.

The intercom phone in the bedroom rang at this moment: "Ed, Miss Britney is here."

"Okay, Charlie, take her to the study, I'll be there right away." Hearing Charlize's somewhat indifferent voice, Adrian couldn't help but smile, and the kind of anger that she had that day but more still appeared in her head. Look worried.

"Don't worry, Charlie, although I like how you look when you're worried about me." Adrian whispered, then straightened his clothes, and then walked out of the bedroom to the study.

Open the door, Charlize is not here, but judging from the cups on the coffee table, she should have just arrived, but the problem is that Britney is not here either.

"Boob?" Adrian tried to call out, and soon Britney's nervous voice came from the bathroom: "Wait a minute, I'll be right out."

American villas have a very interesting feature, that is, there are so many bathrooms, almost every room has them, such as study room, large and small living room, each bedroom, etc. As for why this is so, I don’t know.

"It's okay, take your time, I will wait for you." Adrian replied immediately, and suppressed his curiosity to find out.

He was having a good time that day, so what Britney said was just in his ears. Fortunately, he didn't forget to "find another time to talk carefully in private". Afterwards, he roughly deduced the possible outcome based on the information he received from the record company, and then called Britney to fulfill the agreement to talk carefully in private, and at the same time made an appointment in his villa in order to highlight the privateness.

what is she doing Adrian waited for almost 5 minutes but didn't see Britney coming out. If it wasn't for the occasional voices from inside, he might have thought that something happened to her.

Does she seem to come here alone? Adrian, who was thinking in doubt, brought the coffee cup to his mouth, and was about to take a sip when the bathroom door finally opened, and he almost sprayed it out, but luckily he just opened his mouth.

Britney in front of her is extremely alluring, with her brown and golden hair tied into two ponytails, her upper body is a black coat and a white shirt, she is wearing a red plaid tie, her lower body is the same color as the tie and reaches her knees The plaid skirt on the top, snow-white short and medium short socks on the calf, a pair of low-heeled round-toed leather shoes on the feet, and more importantly, a boxy black schoolbag on the back

That's right, Britney Spears appeared in front of Adrian by dressing up as a high school girl in uniform.

"Is there anything I can do for you, sir?" She looked at him anxiously, and asked timidly, using the word "r"

The dumbfounded Adrian immediately covered his forehead in a fit of laughter. He heard Kirsten's last words after opening the narrow office door that day. On the one hand, he admired Kirsten's scheming, and On the one hand, I was very curious about what Britney would do. I didn't expect her to understand the phrase "like a student asking a teacher" in a literal sense.

"What are you doing, Boob?" Adrian looked at her amusedly.

"I just want...to ask you some questions." Britney, who could see that he didn't care about her appearance, became more nervous, "I can...do a lot of things"

"A lot of things?" Adrian had the urge to cover his forehead again, you really can't speak, Boob.

But I have to admit that her attire is very seductive. Her youthful body is wrapped in a school uniform, her small face looks delicate with a little makeup, and her double ponytails make her look very lively. This kind of Lolita-style uniform is alluring , even a person with strong self-control like Adrian couldn't help swallowing after looking at it.

"Yes... yes..." Britney said a little at a loss, not knowing how to make him happy, after looking around, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and pointed to the tall bookcase: "I can help you get things .”

"Oh?" Adrian finally became interested, and put the question aside temporarily, "Then... help me take down the book on the top floor, there is a folding ladder next to it."

Britney immediately walked over with her schoolbag on her back, opened the folding ladder and moved over, and climbed up. The bookcase is actually not high, so she came to it very easily. After holding down the heavy book Suddenly poking back, the red plaid skirt was lifted up, and then the white underpants were exposed to the air.

Adrian below sighed again and covered his forehead. He is really... clumsy and cute. Are you seducing others? Is there such a thing as seducing others?

"First... sir, I... I got it..." Britney held the book and walked down the ladder with some panting. After seeing Adrian like this, she became uneasy again. It was also covered with a fine layer of sweat beads.

"Let's put it there first." Adrian pointed weakly at the coffee table.

"I... am I not doing well, sir? Did I do something wrong?" Britney bit her lip after putting down the brick book.

"No, no, you've done a good job, Boob...can you stop using the 'r' name?" Adrian asked after sighing.

Britney was silent for a moment, but shook her head resolutely.

Adrian looked at the girl with some confusion and a headache. Although he had seen her like this before, such as insisting on doing more exercises alone, he couldn't think of the reason why she insisted on using this name now.

"So, you came here alone?" Adrian asked again immediately.

"Yes." Britney nodded, put her hands on her shoulders, her thumbs tightened the straps of her schoolbag, she looked at him without blinking, her chest was constantly heaving.
