King of Hollywood

People from several companies gathered in the lounge, naturally discussing the preparations for "Jurassic Park". "Captain Hook" has basically been produced and is just waiting for the release. Spielberg also took a break for a while, and got confirmation from his old friend Lucas that it is technically not difficult to use a computer to create a realistic CG dinosaur. , plus the appearance of "T-1000" shocked many people, so "Jurassic Park" was put on the agenda.

Now it just so happens that the heads of all parties are going to attend the premiere of "The Shawshank Redemption", so we simply talk at the premiere without making another appointment - of course, Adrian's promise is also Spielberg's motivation one.

Although Adrian was invited to the lounge to participate in discussions, more often he played the role of a listener. Because of the previous agreement, Spielberg served as the director and producer at the same time, so he has the final say on almost everything about the crew. As the screenwriter, Adrian only needs to answer his questions at any time.

"I don't agree with your idea, Steven, I admit that if you change the ending to the confrontation with Velociraptor according to your idea, it will give people a very strong sense of tension and excitement, but you ignore the Tyrannosaurus Rex. The body shape gives people a sense of oppression and shock. Think about it, the Velociraptor who chased the protagonists very hard was killed by the Tyrannosaurus rex in an instant. This huge contrast has no less impact on the audience than the Velociraptor. The showdown, isn't it?" Adrian replied when Spielberg suggested that he want to modify the scene at the end. Although all the power has been handed over to him, it doesn't mean that he has to obey him. Who knows better than Adrian how this movie should be shot to make money?

Spielberg accepted this opinion after considering it for a while, and then turned his head to talk to his assistant about the candidates for the leading role. It sounds like he plans to invite Harrison Ford and Juliette Binoche to play the leading roles.

Adrian couldn't help but shook his head, and after listening to a few words, he interjected: "As for the main roles, I can recommend a few candidates. Sam Neill and Laura Dunn can play Grant and Sattler respectively, Jeff Goldblum could play Malcolm, and Sir Richard Attenborough could play Hammond."

Although Spielberg's idea is good, it is unrealistic. Even if there is no memory of the future, Adrian knows this. "Jurassic Park" is a group play from beginning to end. There is no special protagonist. How can Harrison Ford, who is already a first-line Hollywood star, pick it up? Even if his relationship with Spielberg is very good. As for Juliette Binoche, how many commercials has the French actress been in?

"Sir Richard Attenborough?" Spielberg was a little surprised.

"I know, he's never acted in a movie, but there's a first time for everything, isn't it?" Adrian said and waved his hands: "Well, I'm just making a suggestion, how do you think about it? things."

Spielberg nodded and said that he would consider his opinion, and then discussed with the person in charge of Universal. More than an hour passed quickly, and the movie was about to end and the main things were basically settled. Everyone in the lounge ended the discussion and got up to leave. But when Adrian left, he was stopped by Spielberg.

"Conservatively, it may take 4 months or more to prepare in the early stage. You know, we can't replace all the shots with computer CG. The necessary models still need to be made. And we need to find a few paleontologists to guide us. , We want to shoot them as animals rather than monsters. Therefore, the official start may not be until March next year." Spielberg told him.

"It doesn't matter, everything is up to you, I have enough patience." Adrian waved his hand, he knew what the other party really wanted to say, "Don't worry, Steven, I promised you—— Or how about this, even if the box office loses money, I still put out 20 million to invest in "Schindler's List", what do you think?"

Spielberg was stunned for a moment. The reason why he said these words to Adrian was that besides implying that he had to be patient, the production of this movie would take a lot of time. It's just a verbal agreement. What he didn't expect was that he actually got such an answer, which was really surprising.

"That's it." Adrian didn't wait for him to speak, smiled and patted his arm and went out.

"Schindler's List" must be won anyway. Although there have been many films about the Holocaust after World War II, whether it is "Anne's Diary" in the 1970s or the future "Life is Beautiful" and "The Pianist" , None of the advantages that "Schindler's List" has, that is, it has entertainment properties! Having this means that it can spread more widely!

But in any case, it's still a while before Spielberg finishes "Jurassic Park". Adrian walked to the front hall thinking so much, and now there is a more important thing to do. The movie was coming to an end soon, and naturally the press conference was next, and those guys were not so easily dismissed.

This is indeed the case, although the leading actors Robbins and Freeman attracted attention, but the reporters still pointed their guns at Adrian after a few questions.

"Mr. Adrian, I remember you said before that this is a perfect movie. Although I think the movie is really brilliant, and I even applauded with everyone for Andy looking up at the sky in the rain, I still think it has a lot to do with perfection. Do you still insist on this statement?" A reporter asked.

"First of all, I want to correct one point. My wording is: near perfect. This and perfect are two concepts, and I think everyone should be clear that there is no perfect thing in this world-of course, this does not prevent us from pursuing Perfect. Secondly, if you have carefully analyzed those relatively measurable reports, you will find that the near-perfection in my mouth refers to the kind of process that has been suppressed and then released happily. This gentleman just now That said, he also applauded for Andy's escape, didn't he?" Adrian said unhurriedly.

Because the phrase "approximately perfect" has been misinterpreted, during this period of time, many people have been accused of being too arrogant. Although some small and medium-sized newspapers are making noise in order to win attention, Adrian still dare not be careless, and self-boasting also depends on the situation.

"I noticed that the word 'institutionalization' appeared in the movie several times, and the most important supporting actor Brooks also committed suicide because of institutionalization. May I ask Mr. Adrian, do you want to use this as a metaphor?" Another the reporter asked.

"I just want to say that everyone has more or less encountered such a dilemma in life. It is difficult to accept changes after staying in one environment for a long time. At this time, we should all break free and fly freely like birds." Adrian simply replied, "The longing for freedom is the core of the whole movie."

Although he continued to answer the other party's questions, Adrian's half of his mind involuntarily turned to other things. He didn't watch the movie before, so he didn't know what the audience's reaction would be, and how much would the box office of the premiere be?

(It was also criticized for having too many layouts in the early stage, depressed, and there will be another update at night, please recommend and collect!!!)
