King of Hollywood

Chapter 155 Propaganda of the Big Ship

"So you brought him here without even asking for my opinion?" Liv suddenly showed an angry look again.

"Calm down, Liv, as I said, I just want to give you a surprise." Adrian said soothingly while holding her shoulder.

"If it's such a surprise, I'd rather not." Liv folded her arms, her tone still angrily, "I also said that I agree with Sarah, but it doesn't mean that he is the father."

"Liv" Adrian's tone suddenly became much harsher, "Sarah can say that, but you can't"

The young girl wanted to argue at first, but she shrank her neck involuntarily after meeting his piercing eyes.

"Sarah is different from you," Adrian continued in the same tone. "Her father is indeed an irresponsible egg. He abandoned her and her mother and left without saying a word. If If he finds him in the future, unless Sarah really forgives him, I will never allow him to get close to her."

After he paused here, his mouth slowed down a bit: "But you are different. When you were born, your father... well, Stephen didn't know about it, and your mother didn't tell him. Although it was you because He learned the truth from his mother at the concert, but he still doesn't know, so why not give him a chance?"

Adrian hugged Liv in his arms, and gently stroked her face: "I don't want you to take over and forgive him right away, I just think you might as well give him a fulfillment." Opportunity for duty. In any case, Stephen is your biological father, even if he has not performed a father's duty in these 20 years, but this is an irreversible fact. So, since he is just ignorant rather than deliberately unwilling to take responsibility , then you can try to get along with him for a while, to see if he is a qualified father, to see if he is qualified for you to call him father."

Although Liv stared at him for a while, and then buried her head in his chest, she never gave an answer. Adrian sighed a long time, patted her on the back and put the last straw on it: "You still don't understand why I asked them to write such a story, and you must be the starring role?" ?”

The body in her arms trembled suddenly, and the young girl finally raised her head.

"Well, for your sake, I can give him a chance," Liv looked deeply at Adrian, "but if I feel the need to end this situation, I don't want to hear something like 'Giving him a chance' voice."

"No problem." Adrian smiled at her.

Afterwards, the two returned to the previous lounge. Willis, Jacques, and the rest of the Aerosmith all had a good talk, but Taylor sat in the corner absent-mindedly, and didn't come out until Liv came back. smiled. I didn't talk about anything more after that. Taylor took out the lyrics of the theme song for everyone to refer to and sang a short section, and then ended the meeting. Although Liv returned to the lounge, she didn't eat it from the beginning to the end. Voice.

"You should pay me, Ed, it's not a good job," Willis joked as he left.

"Although $150 per hour is not particularly expensive, I do the main work, so how about sharing half of it with me, Dr. Malcolm?" Adrian asked with a smile.

After several main characters—especially Liv—had gone out, Stephen Taylor came to Adrian's side: "Thank you, Mr. Adrian."

His tone was still sincere, and Adrian smiled slightly: "It's nothing, I am also for Liv. But this is the only way I can go. If you can get her understanding, you have to continue to work hard."

"I know." Taylor nodded, hesitated for a while before asking hesitantly: "If it's possible, can you tell me..."

"We're dating." Adrian didn't hide it. Bibi Bill also knew about the matchmaking of Liv's father and daughter. Although she has no relationship with Taylor now, she has always been dissatisfied with Liv sticking to a uāuā boy And uneasy, especially in the case of knowing that the other party has other women. It is absolutely impossible to say that she didn't tell Tyler this and hoped that he could enlighten Liv.

"Hmm...Okay, I see." Taylor was slightly absent-minded, but didn't say anything.

Adrian, who saw it in his eyes, chuckled in his heart immediately, some things are not so easy to do, besides, he never does aimless things. If he hadn't done it at the beginning, Liv might have reconciled with him because of her role in Taylor's single V, but Adrian brought her to Los Angeles, and replaced Taylor as her father in her heart the corner of care

Being well cared for by Adrian, coupled with the sympathy with Sarah, and his impartial methods of coaxing women, Liv fell in love with him more and more, and at the same time completely left Taylor behind. the back of the head. But this is far from enough, so now, when the relationship is at a critical point, Adrian has used this trick, no matter whether the matchmaking is successful or not, he will continue to occupy the most important place in Liv's heart status.

Although there may be other situations, the chances are very small. Stephen Taylor is not a good man or father, as can be seen from how he treats Bibi? Bill's mother and daughter. Although Adrian told Liv that Taylor didn't know that he had a īv, but in fact, how could he not know at all? Sometimes the entertainment industry is big and sometimes it's small, but it's just that people don't mention him. Let's not talk about it.

So if something unexpected happens, it can only be said to be God's will. But nothing is more convincing than the facts. Don’t look at Liv who was still upset like a child until Taylor left, but that night she tried her best to make love with Adrian. The gesture that he was ashamed to use was also shown, and Adrian simply took the opportunity to pick her back. Although Liv was crying, she was quite cooperative.

"The End of the World" will have to wait until the end of the year at least if it wants to be released, and the same is true for "Prison in the Sky" invested and produced by New Line. Although "The Matrix" is being shot by Adrian, the efficiency is as fast as ever, but It also cannot be released in a short period of time. Although there is still more than a month before the summer vacation, it seems that there are not many big productions under the media to compete for the schedule?

How is it possible that Adrian didn't take this issue to heart at all, there is enough "Titanic" Although the film is distributed by 20th Century Fox, although he invested in his own name, who doesn't know that he is a media Chairman? With such a large signboard, even if the media gave up the summer vacation, no one would say anything.

Although the publicity work has just begun, "Titanic" has attracted enough attention. After all, Fox is one of the seven old movies and has a complete marketing team. Commercial marketing does not mean that a few novel concepts can make products popular with the public. Of course, if you look at it from the perspective of an outsider, marketing is actually quite simple.

For example, now, Fox first quietly releases the first version of the trailer, and then gradually releases various uā side news about the movie after more and more people notice it. For example, Cameron has been preparing for several years. For example, a 1:1 model was built in Mexico, for example, a lot of CG was used for special effects, and even the news that the female protagonist Gwyneth almost got pneumonia because of being soaked in water for too long was used as a talking point.

Some of these news have been heard before, and some are known for the first time. The combination of news and old news makes more people full of curiosity. As the biggest gimmick of the entire movie, a total investment of 260 million yuan—yes, that’s the figure. Although the TV stations under the media fully cooperate with the publicity, the figures on the books still have to be calculated clearly, and it does not prevent Fox from taking it. It was slightly exaggerated when used, so the cost of 240 million plus the 20 million publicity budget finally became an investment of 260 million.

In short, as the most astonishing thing, this investment figure will definitely be hyped up, or it cannot be said that there will be no one in the future, but it is certain that there will be no one in the past. Coupled with the news of Adrian's insight and knowledge, the news that one person supported Cameron's crazy plan made countless people stunned.

"I don't know what Adrian's purpose is, the love of movies or just trying to prove something, but this is definitely the craziest investment ever." The Los Angeles Times commented.

Not counting inflation so far, the film with the highest investment is only 100 million US dollars. Although they are all Cameron's works, but this time he suddenly doubled. Such a huge number is enough to scare many people, so they are not very optimistic about this movie: "I seem to have seen another movie. Even if the producer of "Paradise is the director of Miracle and the gold medal producer, it still can't change my opinion."

But ordinary people are more curious about Adrian's net worth. Thanks to his low profile in the past few years, in their eyes, Adrian is the director of Miracle first, and then the chairman of the media, but now he can pay for it. It is really surprising that a huge sum of nearly 300 million yuan is invested in a movie in his own name.

It's a pity that there is no definite answer to this question. After all, the media is not listed, so it can only be estimated from other listed companies such as China, TB, and Surprise. Even so, it can be concluded that he has a net worth of at least several billions. After all, Adrian is among the top 30 in the "Forbes" rich list.

The upcoming big production with unprecedented investment, Cameron has spent countless years of preparations to create it, and it is invested by Adrian, a miracle director and young rich man. There is no controversy about him in "Eyes Wide Shut" released at the beginning of the year. Stop completely. These various factors are intertwined together, coupled with all kinds of overwhelming advertisements, but in only half a month, "Titanic" has gained a lot of attention, and many people have already made up their minds, even if this Movies are hard to watch, so I have to go to the cinema as soon as possible to see what this movie with an investment of nearly 300 million is like.

Look, it's that simple, but if you don't have a professional enough team to take care of all aspects of affairs and handle various situations, trying to sell products by proposing a few novel concepts is just a plot in a novel.

In short, based on the current feedback, many professionals are not very optimistic about this movie, and there are many noises in it. For example, an independent director complained sourly: "They would rather invest money in "Titanic" This kind of film that puts old wine in new bottles is unwilling to support independent films, and the funds I need can’t even use a fraction of this film.”

After the news spread to Europe, the European directors who boasted of being a "sacred place of literature and art" also laughed at Hollywood and started burning money again.

"At first I thought that Adrian Kewell would be like Woody Allen, a director who was so different from American directors, but now it seems that he is no different from his American counterparts, and he is more enthusiastic about technology and investment. Commercial film, while ignoring the film itself." A critic of the French "Liberation" wrote in his column, and not long ago he also praised "Eyes Wide Shut" directed by Adrian as very good. Brick style.

By the way, "Eyes Wide Shut" is selling well in France, as to why... Hehe...

In addition, many teams under the banner of public welfare have also joined in, and they all think that instead of spending such a huge amount of money on film production, it is better to donate it to help more people. Although such words have not been said much in public, they can be found everywhere on the Internet. Some people even calculated how many people in third world countries this investment can reach.

"You don't need to pay attention to them, they will shut up obediently after the movie is released." Adrian said so, and then waved his hand to indicate that he should not take it to heart, as if he was chasing mosquitoes.

Hearing this, Cameron didn't know what to say. He is a person who has more confidence in "Titanic". After all, he made the movie himself, but Adrian looks better than him More confident.

Well, let’s not mention this. Although "Titanic" is hotly hyped, most of Adrian's thoughts are not on it, even if many groups with charitable and public welfare signs approach him, he doesn't care. For the rich, whether it is for a good reputation or a sincere desire to give back to the society, charity must be done regularly, but they also have their own fixed channels, and donating a sum of money when they find it is something that people will do when they are taken advantage of.

So after completing the daily filming of "The Matrix", my current life is still quite leisurely, but some things have increased compared to before.

"It's really fascinating..." Adrian said in admiration while lying sideways on the bed, stroking the beautiful body.

"Do you like it very much?" Kirsten, who was crawling beside him, turned his head and asked with a giggle.

"Of course, who wouldn't like it?" Adrian chuckled, stroking her smooth back tenderly.

At her birthday party, Adrian didn't have a good time. After all, there were many people downstairs, and it was Kirsten's first time, so it didn't last long. Speaking of which, Kirsten's birthday should be on the last day of April, but it's just celebrated on the weekend earlier, so if it really has to be counted... so what? Everything that should be done has been done, and this last step is not missing.

In the following period of time, the young women often ran to him. Although they had been intimate before and ate bananas several times, they were nothing compared to actually going inside. In addition, Adrian She has always been considerate and caring for women's first time. Kirsten, who knows the taste, will naturally want more, anyway, she has more and more free time now.

"Speaking of which, at your birthday party that day, there were a few girls who looked pretty good, and they all wanted to be actors." Adrian said casually.

"Really? Do you need me to introduce you?" Kirsten turned his head, brushed his hair and smiled coquettishly, and raised his eyes back and forth, shaking them back and forth.

But having said that, there was an inexplicable gleam in her eyes, and her white teeth unconsciously bit her lower lip.

"No need, they don't have much potential. At best, they are ordinary second- and third-tier actors, let alone compared with you." Adrian smiled softly in his heart, and then slapped her on the cheek .

"Ed" Kirsten āo said angrily, seemingly embarrassed by his compliment, but actually very happy.

She doesn't mind his wives, because she thinks she is young and has an advantage, so she will be nervous when he mentions other young girls, so she saw him talking well with Scarlett at the Oscars , and then passed a paper to invite him to go to the bathroom. Boneier, bolder and... more vulnerable. The last word was deliberately not mentioned by Adrian before. Kirsten is very similar to Liv and Sarah. In fact, the few women who are most devoted to him basically have the same thing except Monica because of too much experience.

"What if I want to realize more of my potential?" The girl wrapped herself around his body like a water snake.

"Don't be too greedy, dear Kiki, remember what I said?" Adrian caressed her beautiful body, "It's up to two years, don't worry, I have thought about it."

"Okay, I got it." Kirsten sighed, then wrapped his arms around his neck and exhaled like blue: "When will we go out for a stroll together? It won't be too long, I just want to be alone with you , how about the day after tomorrow?"

"The day after tomorrow? Sorry, Kiki, I have something to do the day after tomorrow." Adrian shook his head.

"Can you tell me something?" The young girl hurriedly asked, although his emotional fluctuations were very subtle, but Kirsten's attention was on him at the moment, so he noticed this change and felt a little bit A vague premonition.

"It's nothing—since you're in such a good mood and it's still early, why don't you do it again?" Adrian simply changed the topic, then rolled over and pressed her under him.

"What a nuisance," exclaimed Kirsten flatteringly, but soon panicked, "wait... where are you... your fingers?"

"Relax, your body recovers quickly anyway, let me try it, it won't hurt you."

"I beg you not to..." F@.
