King of Hollywood

Chapter 152 Wait a few months

"You have to admit that Apple has reached the most dangerous point. Even you, it is difficult to reverse this situation." Bill Gates smiled, giving a shy feeling, but he had a fight with him People who know the Tao know that shyness is indeed true, but so is the domineering and desire behind shyness.

"There are always miracles in this world, Bill. Opportunities are only reserved for those who are ready." Steve Jobs pushed his glasses, still frowning.

Basically, the debate between the two is coming to an end. Similar topics have probably been debated countless times at different times and on different occasions, and no one can convince the other. However, if you think that the two are completely rivals because of this, you are very wrong. As two people who have a profound impact on the development of IT, although they are tit-for-tat at work, they can barely be regarded as friends at the same time. Also a confidant.

"Frankly speaking, it's interesting to hear your arguments." After the crowd dispersed, Adrian came to Jobs' side.

"If you can benefit from it, I will be very happy." Jobs who walked to his wife turned around and said calmly.

"Actually, I really benefited a lot from it." After shaking hands with his wife Lauren Powell Jobs, Adrian said with a smile. Because of his deliberate approach, the two often met at various parties I have met her, so I also know her wife, "Bill is right, Microsoft is indeed booming, and I have made a lot of money because of it."

Jobs did not answer, but Lauren spoke to ease the atmosphere: "For investors, making money is always a good thing."

"Yeah, although Microsoft is likely to face monopoly lawsuits, their luck is always good." Adrian inadvertently raised a topic full of foresight. It is still early 1997, although Microsoft has already made a surprising leap , and it is getting bigger and bigger, some people have faintly realized this, but no one would take this kind of occasion as a talking point.

Coupled with the "good luck" statement that is both flattering and teasing, Jobs' interest will inevitably be aroused, and then: "But I also agree with Steve, the world will always have miracles."

"Oh?" Jobs finally raised his eyebrows.

"Especially, Steve Jobs has finally returned to his proper position." Adrian said with a smile

Lauren was slightly moved, but Jobs remained calm: "Thank you for your evaluation, Ed, but I'm still just an advisor to Apple's board of directors."

"Really?" Adrian looked at him meaningfully, "In my opinion, only Steve Jobs' apples are apples."

A look of surprise flashed across the eyes behind the lens. The word "only" can be used as both a predicate and an attributive, depending on how the listener judges. Of course, Jobs remained calm on the surface, and then said in a half-joking tone: "It's really an honor, maybe you can try to invest in Apple if you have the opportunity."

"Perhaps, if there is a chance." Adrian laughed, but did not give a definite answer, and left after saying a few other words.

As early as the beginning of November last year, Jobs's net company was officially acquired by Apple. Relying on the $10,000 he sold Pixar to Adrian, his net company finally reached a balance of payments. Although Jobs was ridiculed for selling Pixar, Apple still set its sights on him. After all, no one knew Apple better than him.

So under the auspices of the then ce Jill Amelio, Apple acquired the net company more than a month in advance and invited Jobs back. After several discussions, he was given the status of a board advisor. However, the return of Jobs did not improve Apple's current predicament, and he made several suggestions that did not help. Apple's stock was still in turmoil, and Jill Amelio was still battered.

But Adrian knew that this was an illusion. Because of Pixar in his previous life, he had some understanding of Jobs' affairs, and everything now was just to clean up those who betrayed him. Someone said in the previous life that these are largely accidents. For example, the current CEO Jill Amelio didn’t particularly offend Jobs, but Apple didn’t really follow what Jobs said, so they repeated it again and again. decline.

However, they also admitted that Jill Amelio would be driven away. In addition to the continuous decline in performance, it was very different from when he first asked Jobs to talk to him, he dismissed his opinions and even felt that he was whimsical, and then let him go. Relationship. In any case, Jobs is a stingy person in this regard, and he is a bit of a vengeful person, so Adrian does not intend to let go of it now, lest the other party have other ideas, although he has already pulled investment in front of him many times.

Besides, let Jobs ask himself to have the initiative for these incompetent selves, isn't it?

"You seem to be very optimistic about him?" Charlize, who had been silent all this time after leaving the Jobs wife's fù, asked suddenly.

"Of course, although he has various shortcomings, he is indeed a genius." Adrian shrugged, "I remember asking you to collect information on Apple and Steve, don't you think he is good?"

"Too arrogant, wanting too much control over power, narcissistic and arrogant, always thinking that he is right..." Charlize recalled, then looked at Adrian thinking of something.

"I'm different from him." Adrian raised his hands with a smile.

"Yes..." Charlize sighed after being silent for a while, but immediately added: "At least in terms of controlling desire, you are in agreement."

Adrian shook his head with a smile, and instead of talking about it, he just said: "Okay, you might as well start collecting more information about Steve from now on, and let's talk about this issue in a few months, how about it?"

What can you learn from this, my little Charlie?

The routine press conference ended just like that. Claude returned to Los Angeles the next day, and Adrian went to New York. After all, it was so close and it was the weekend. Of course, Charlize was definitely not around at this time.

"It's boring? But when I watched TV last night, isn't it very lively now?" On the grass in the park, Natalie asked curiously, leaning on Adrian's arm, the warm sun was shining on her body, and she felt warm It's very comfortable.

"Jon was pretty good when he told jokes on it, but after that, it will be no different from the usual society." Adrian put down the book in his hand and shrugged.

"So, in your eyes, what kind of person is the president?" Natalie turned over and crawled on the mat on the grass, holding her chin with her hands into fists, looking very cute.

"Talkable, funny, confident, and a sense of control," recalls Adrian.

"It sounds like you're talking about yourself?" Natalie giggled.

"Really? If I run for president, will you vote for me, Nada?" Adrian asked seriously.

"Unfortunately, I don't have the right to vote yet." Young V grimaced.

"What if you have?"

"Can I choose not to answer?"

"why?"

"No reason."

"There must be a reason."

"No, I just don't want to answer."

"Well, it seems that I am an annoying guy." Adrian sighed, lowered his head and continued to read the book in his hand.

"Are you angry?" Natalie raised her body and asked tentatively. He didn't answer, but she stretched out her hand and shook it in front of him again, but there was still no response.

The young girl turned her eyes to reveal a quirky smile, and suddenly approached Adrian's mouth with lightning speed. Adrian, who was suddenly attacked, finally showed his astonishment, and Natalie, who succeeded, covered her mouth and laughed. Adrian glared at her angrily, looked around and immediately reached out to grab this ě back.

Natalie didn't dodge, but just looked up at him: "Think about it, Ed, this is a public place, I can do it, you can me..."

She dragged out her voice, with a sly look in her eyes, making her teeth itch with hatred.

"Okay, you won." Adrian let go of his hand helplessly.

"Give up? I thought you would come up with some tricks to get back the situation." Adrian, who was less surprised, once again turned into a look of ignorance, but he seemed to be angry.

"Okay, let me tell you the answer. I won't vote for you, because if you become president, the film industry will suffer too much." Natalie leaned back and held Adrien Ann's arms swayed slightly, appearing very intimate. Her sense of proportion is very good, no one will suspect anything.

"Really? I'm already so great?" Adrian asked deliberately.

"Of course, during this period of time, those reporters who praised you not only put all the words of praise on you, but also called you Kubrick's second." Natalie said half teasingly, but her face suddenly turned red stand up.

"Kubrick is second? Hehe, it's really frightening, but unfortunately, I am me, and no one else is second." Adrian chuckled, then noticed the blush on Young V's face, and thought about it for a while Knowing what was going on, he asked in surprise, "Have you seen it?"

"Anyway, it's an R-rated movie." Natalie tried her best to look indifferent.

"I don't think your parents will agree to take you to see such a movie." Adrian said sharply.

"Okay, okay, I just... want to see your work..." Natalie pouted, "Those plots are no big deal, I even read your work..."

When she said this, she suddenly realized that something was wrong, she was so frightened that she quickly closed her mouth and turned to steal, and only after a while did she look at Adrian with a guilty conscience. But Adrian didn't seem to notice this. He shook his head and reached out to press her head: "I know, you are a big girl, a mature big girl, and...not a good girl."

When he said the last sentence, he deliberately put on a joking tone, and Natalie, who knew what he meant, blushed immediately.

"But this kind of movie is still not suitable for you to watch alone. Even if you know what you are watching, you still have to consider it for your parents and even the movie theater, right?" Adrian continued to comfort him gently.

"Well, I promise, this is the last time." Natalie said immediately.

Adrian smiled and rubbed her head affectionately, and then brought up an important topic: "By the way, I have a character I want to recommend to you."

"Recommend it to me?" Natalie looked at him as if she had discovered the new continent, "You, a miracle director, ace screenwriter, and gold medal producer, sometimes recommend characters?"

"Because it's not my movie, but the role is very suitable for you, and it will be of greater help to your future." Adrian explained.

"Oh?" Young V was immediately aroused interest.

"I can't say what it is, after all, it's a commercial secret, but I can tell you that this character is a young woman who is in charge of a... medium-sized country. The producers need an actor who can show that she wants to go out on her own." But in the state of being unable to go out independently for the time being, I thought of you immediately, and I don't think there is a more suitable candidate than you." Adrian said, "Besides, this is a completely commercial movie."

Natalie was curious at first, but she frowned involuntarily after hearing the words "completely commercial film".

"What's wrong?" Adrian was keenly aware of her emotions.

"It's nothing, it's just..." She shrugged her shoulders. "This is definitely not a historical movie, nor will it be a modern urban movie. I don't know if it is a science fiction movie or a magical movie."

Adrian laughed: "It's really smart Nada, you will know when the time comes - well, let's change the subject first, what kind of actor do you want to be? Or what do you want to achieve in this to what extent?"

"I'm not sure yet, but if I continue to make movies in the future, I hope I can become the most outstanding actor in the world. I hope that there will be my movies all over the world, no matter who they are, ordinary people or film critics. Or film artists, they all have a deep impression on me." Natalie said with clenched fists.

"Very good, people have dreams to be motivated." Adrian nodded approvingly, and then asked the question: "So, do you know how to achieve your goals? First, you must have enough hits Only in this way can it be widely known all over the world; second, you don’t need to try too many themes, you need to fully display your best features, only in this way can you play a role that makes you honorable and then Get the approval of the discerning guys. And this movie, I'm talking about, will satisfy your first requirement."

Natalie stared at him intently for a long time, and then smiled cutely and beautifully: "Okay, then I agree."

"Really?" Adrian was slightly surprised, he had planned to ask for more.

"Of course," Young V said, stretched out his finger and poked lightly on his crotch, "Because I know that you love me."

In the small space, the sound of heavy breathing kept echoing. Adrian held Natalie's face, blocked her mouth, and sucked that flexible little tongue continuously. Young V responded enthusiastically with his eyes closed, wrapped his arms around his neck, his face was flushed, and the look of excitement flowing from his brows seemed very emotional.

Finally, Adrian left her wet mouth and rained ě on her eyebrows, eyes, nose, chin and pink neck, and at the same time greedily inhaled the unique fragrance of the girl V. Natalie began to moan lowly, her hands also slipped down, and finally grabbed Adrian's clothes and lifted them up.

Just when the passion was about to explode, Adrian suddenly stopped: "Wait, Nada, wait."

"What's the matter?" Natalie looked at him with half-opened eyes, her eyes were full of emotion. She seemed to realize something, and after a pause, she said with a little hesitation: "No...it's okay, I don't...I don't mind……"

"But I don't mind." Adrian said seriously, stroking her face, "This place is too close to your home, it will be very bad if people see it, it doesn't matter what kind of situation I will face, but you can't. "

After a day of fun with Natalie and some sun in the park, Adrian sent her back to Long Island, stopping as usual in a secluded corner, and then she would make her own way. But maybe it's because the two don't see each other often, and they don't hug each other passionately every time, plus the play in the park before, they suddenly became impulsive when they said goodbye. If it wasn't for Adrian to restrain himself, The two of them must have gone to the backseat to turn their backs.

Following his words, Natalie finally calmed down her emotions slowly, and finally looked at him with emotion: "You are right, Ed, I am still frivolous, the school is very close, if By classmates..."

She stuck out her tongue out of fear and didn't speak any more.

"Don't worry, it's just a few minutes, no one will see it," Adrian rubbed her head, "But I'm curious, there are so many good high schools in Long Island, why did you choose a public high school?"

"Because I want to try something new, and I can also exercise my willpower. Although public high schools are not very good, as long as you study hard, you can still learn something." Natalie shrugged and followed with a giggle. , "What? Afraid that I will be snatched away by others?"

"Of course, you are my favorite little lover." Adrian said, pinching her soft chin lightly, and then sighed: "I should have known that I should have driven outside for a while before coming here. "

"Rest." Natalie wrinkled her small nose and snorted heavily, "I was confused just now, and I will never do this again in the future."

"That's a pity. If I had known, I wouldn't have stopped." Adrian smacked his lips on purpose.

"It's too late to regret now, who told you to come today and leave today." Natalie smiled proudly, "Who told you not to come yesterday, who told you not to leave tomorrow."

"Because something happened..." Adrian muttered, "Then how about giving me some compensation?"

"What compensation?" Natalie asked curiously.

He then leaned over and whispered something in her ear, Young V's face turned red immediately, and he immediately spat at him: "You are so nasty, I don't want to talk to you anymore"

As he spoke, he made a grimace, picked up his things, tidied up his clothes, looked at them and tore them away, then quickly got out of the car and slipped away. f
