King of Hollywood

Chapter 7 I am happy to offer opportunities

"After that night, you haven't called me. I thought you had forgotten me." The bright sunlight hit the girl's face through the floor-to-ceiling windows, making her look delicate and peaceful. Stirring at a constant speed under the slender fingers, the coffee in the cup slowly rotated, forming a small vortex, and there was a hint of resentment in the joking tone.

"How is it possible, you were so outstanding and refined that night." The man sitting opposite her smiled slightly, picked up his cup and took a sip, his movements were elegant, well-educated, and possessed a different kind of charm.

Gwyneth raised her eyebrows and did not speak. Although she kept smiling, disbelief was clearly written on her face.

"Of course, I should still say sorry. It's really my fault for not calling. Although I was really busy during this time," Adrian put down his glass and sighed, "But I will not forget anything that impressed me. Impressive beautiful women."

"Anything?" Gwyneth's eyes fluttered and she didn't know what she was thinking. She reached out and brushed the hair around her ears, her casual look looked very seductive.

"Why did you choose me to play this role, Ed?" She suddenly changed the subject, "To play the role of this weak wife who was eventually killed by a psycho killer?"

"Because that's the impression you gave me, Gwynnie." Adrian said calmly.

"You mean, I'm the kind of woman who is targeted by a perverted killer?" Gwyneth curled her lips with one hand resting on her chin.

Adrian laughed immediately, and looked at the girl in front of him without blinking: "Kind, delicate, and weak, this is Gwynnie in my eyes, a beautiful woman who is not beautiful."

"You can really talk, Ed," Gwyneth covered her mouth and giggled twice, then glanced at another location not far away, her own agent who was bargaining with Roger, and the farther away Charlize, who seemed indifferent to everything in front of her, looked at the magazine.

"Anyway, it's an honor to be invited by you personally," she said immediately.

"I'm really flattered to say that, Gwynnie. In fact, I just want to make sure that the person I like will agree, because the person I like must be suitable for the role of the movie." Although Adrian's tone was light, But with an unquestionable aura, Gwyneth's eyes couldn't help flashing a different color.

She lowered her head to sip her coffee and was about to continue talking when Adrian's voice suddenly remembered: "Wait a minute"

"What happened?" Gwyneth asked in confusion.

"Yes," replied Adrian, "very wonderful and interesting stuff."

He looked at Gwyneth without blinking, with a half smile, a little appreciation and a little aggression in his eyes.

"Can you tell me what it is?" Gwyneth frowned slightly, which made her look good.

Adrian didn't answer, just put his middle finger outside his mouth to make a "shh" motion, and then continued to look at Gwyneth. From top to bottom, from left to right, sometimes it is clear to the bottom, as if admiring an exquisite piece of art; sometimes it is full of fiery desires, as if what is in front of him is a naked body.

Facing such gazes, Gwyneth twisted her body uncomfortably, lowered her head and dared not look at him, but as time went by, this feeling of discomfort became more and more intense.

"Ed...I think..." Gwyneth stirred the remaining coffee to get rid of the feeling of being overwhelmed, but Adrian suddenly reached out and lifted her chin.

An angry look flashed across the somewhat stunned Gwyneth, and just about to speak, Adrian's voice sounded again: "A few minutes, give me a few more minutes, Gwyneth."

There was a request in the tone, but also a little temptation, and the pair of dark and deep eyes were full of seriousness.

A shy blush suddenly flashed across Gwyneth's face, and she didn't say any more words, she turned her head slightly and looked out of the French window, letting Adrian touch her face.

"It's...perfect" Adrian sighed a few minutes later.

"Perfect?" After he withdrew his hand, Gwyneth turned her head. "That's a nice compliment, Ed."

Although there was obvious sarcasm in her tone, and even though there was a sullen look on her brows, when she heard the word "perfect" before, her breathing became slightly faster.

"I'm serious, Gwynnie." Although Adrian withdrew his hand, his eyes never moved away, and his eyes showed excitement at this time, "I have a wonderful idea, and only you can help me." Finish"

"Really?" Gwyneth's eyes lit up again, "I...do I know what it is?"

"Well... sorry, I can't tell you." Adrian smiled, with a mockery and slyness, and then said after the other party showed an angry look: "But I can guarantee that this is definitely a brilliant idea, see Look at you, Gwyneth, your temperament and beauty have become an impeccable candidate."

"Well, I don't understand." Gwyneth sighed, she had no idea what Adrian was talking about.

"It's okay, you'll know when the time comes, I'll surprise many people, so..." Adrian's smile grew stronger, "If possible, how about signing at least three films with me?"

"Three film appointments?" Gwyneth suddenly showed a look of surprise.

"Yes, there is no mandatory three-film contract." Adrian put his hands together and looked at Gwyneth leisurely. "Believe me, Gwyneth, there is no one else who is more suitable than you."

First she covered her mouth, then took two deep breaths, then rubbed her teeth against her lips, and after glancing outside the French window, Gwyneth finally made a decision: "Obviously, I didn't refuse reason."

Her gray-green eyes were shining brightly: "It's really an honor to be praised so much by Director Miracle."

"Thank you." Adrian didn't say anything more flattered this time, but he held Gwyneth's hand for the first time, rubbed it a few times, and then touched her soft tiger's mouth. Gwyneth did not withdraw her hand, she just lowered her head and looked at Adrian shyly, until she noticed that on the seat not far away, her manager and Roger were chatting leisurely over coffee , only to realize that they had already negotiated.

"I think it's time for me to go back." Gwyneth withdrew her hand and stood up, and then turned into the elegant girl at the beginning, "Thank you for the invitation, Ed."

"I'm so happy that you agreed." Adrian immediately stood up with a smile.

The next step was to send Gwyneth away, and then Adrian told Roger about the previous three film appointments and handed it over to him, and then took Charlize into the car and drove out of the club to return to the company.

"Don't forget, you still have a date." After watching Gwyneth's car drive out of the club, Charlize began to remind, but she didn't have any expression on her face. Adrian thought she would be very upset. happy.

Today's date with Gwyneth is mainly to invite her to play the role of the wife in "The Seven Deadly Sins", which is considered a good supporting role. This kind of work does not require him to come forward in person, and the person in charge of the company will handle it well, so it is natural for Adrian to ask Gwyneth to come out in person.

He had watched Gwyneth's reactions throughout the date, and except for the shyness in his touch of her face that was genuine, the others were half-truths. In fact, it was the same at the charity gala last time, there was some flavor of performance in it, but she did a good job and basically no one could tell. So women are born to be actors in front of men, but it's a pity that she met Adrian this time.

Having said all that, the simple summary is that this woman wants something from him. Although Gwyneth was born in a family of entertainers, her father is a film producer and her mother is a film actor, and she even has a godfather of a great director, but this does not mean that she can have a smooth journey in Hollywood, these only mean that her starting point is higher .

Adrian still remembers that at a party, when listening to a few people chatting, a guy once said such a thing. A director's daughter wanted to be an actress, so the director entrusted her to a producer with a decent relationship. However, the producer's first audition for the girl was to let her undress in front of the camera, and She also said something like "How can you dedicate yourself to art if you don't even want to take off your clothes" (Note), the girl who almost cried finally took it off.

This is Hollywood, the glitzy Vanity Fair. Moreover, although connections are important, they don't mean everything. There are too many examples of this, no matter how rich the connections are, they are useless.

Therefore, actors, especially second- and third-tier actors, will try their best to seize the opportunity. If they can catch up with Miracle Director, it will be of great help to their careers.

I am more than happy to provide such opportunities, as long as they will pay the corresponding price. Rubbing his chin, Adrian sighed softly in his heart. Gwyneth is not particularly beautiful, but she has a very good temperament. She is the same type of woman as Blanchett. Of course, she was bolder than Blanchett, and really wanted to see them surrender before her.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look out of the car window. He could feel the brightness of the sun through the window paper, and summer was coming. Adrian once again lamented in his heart that next summer will also be the harvest season, and then shifted his mind to the next meeting. I haven't seen her for a long time, and I don't know what it looks like now?

=======================================

Rachel Weisz, who was sitting in the living room, pinched her fingers a little irritably, and looked at the business card in her pocket from time to time, wondering whether it was right or wrong for her to do so now.

"You see, Rachel, yes I'm your agent, yes I'm supposed to get you a role, but you should make a difference, too, right? This is Hollywood, not London," her agent said. He told her so on the phone.

Maybe going to Hollywood was a mistake after all? Rachel asked herself in her heart, she couldn't help but took out the business card again, looking at the name on it, she was a little dazed. She always thought that she was going crazy that day, but she just met on the set, just went out for an afternoon tea, chatted a few words and had dinner together, and she actually took him home and had sex with him...

Rachel covered her forehead with a wry smile and shook her head. Well, she admitted that Adrian was really charming that day. She still remembers the situation at that time. They discussed everything from Foster's novels to Shakespeare. From medieval dramas to modern novels. Adrian fits perfectly with the image she imagined after watching the movie "Howards End". He is talkative, knowledgeable, has a sense of humor, and understands women's minds very well, which naturally aroused her emotions. Then the burning became more and more vigorous, and the last shot was out of control.

Similarly, as she said that night, it was the happiest experience for her, and she was so unrestrained that she did it several times. Rachel would blush every time she recalled the lingering love that night. Adrian's unreserved enthusiasm and skills made her feel unprecedentedly satisfied.

But that was also the case, the smart girl immediately discovered something, so she asked him if there were many women. Later, she saw the scene where Adrian and Julia went to the waiting room. She didn't have a part in the scene that day but she came to the set.

As a result, this guy's identity as a playboy is unquestionable. Although Rachel was annoyed, she didn't regret anything. When Adrian specially came to invite her to Hollywood, she didn't say much, and even took his business card. In her opinion, she will not contact him in the future, so she did not attend the premiere of "Four Weddings and a Funeral".

But some things were unexpected. After appearing in several stage plays, Rachel began to develop into a professional actor. It wasn't until this time that she realized what opportunity meant in filmmaking, especially after going to Hollywood. from scratch. In London, her stage trophies would have given her a point, but here they were useless.

So when she heard the words of the agent, she felt a chill in her heart. Of course she knew what the agent meant. There were several times when she thought her audition was not bad, but the roles were eventually snatched by other actresses. Go, because the other party has a closer relationship with the director or producer.

She can choose to go through it slowly, maybe one day she will act in an unknown independent film, but she will become famous because of it, such a thing is not uncommon. But this is unacceptable for a somewhat arrogant woman who has performed well in movies at the age of 13 or 4 and has the title of princess at Cambridge University.

In desperation, Rachel turned out Adrian's business card - she had always kept it well. Although she had heard many scandals and gossips about him after she came to Hollywood, but if the lust was aside, he was still a good man. Well, this is indeed Rachel's self-comforting idea. After all, she and him have only met a few times, but now she seems to have no other choice but this, so she finally appeared here.

Dong dong dong, there was a knock on the door, and Rachel raised her head immediately. The familiar but unfamiliar man was standing at the entrance of the living room, looking at her with a smile on his face.

"Hi, Rachel, it's been a long time." Adrian said with emotion.

"Yeah, long time no see." Rachel put the business card back into her pocket as if nothing had happened, and stood up with a faint smile.

"You are still so beautiful and charming." Adrian walked over a few steps and held her hand.

"Thank you." Rachel sighed softly in her heart, she could hear the sincerity in the other party's words, and there was no other movement except shaking hands, exactly the same as the gentleman she met at the beginning.

"Please sit down." Adrian said in greeting, and at the same time turned his head and shouted to the door: "Charlie, please send me two glasses..."

He looked at Rachel questioningly, and Rachel nodded.

"Please send me two cups of English black tea, thank you." Adrian shouted immediately, and followed Rachel's narration, "The black tea in the company may not be as good as outside, but it is still very good."

"It's okay, just do whatever you want." Rachel hurriedly said.

"What can I do for you?" Adrian cut to the chase after a few pleasantries.

Rachel couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, she suddenly realized that she had called here without thinking about anything, this... This is really the hell. When did I become so stupid? I didn't even think about it in detail... What should I say now? I want a role? No kidding, what does this make him think?

Fortunately, Adrian untied her immediately: "Oh, you finally decided to develop in Hollywood, didn't you?"

"Um... yes..." Rachel mumbled past, just at that moment Adrian's female secretary brought black tea, and she finally calmed down after taking a sip.

"It's great, you don't know how happy I am when I know you're calling" Adrian continued in an emotional tone, looking at Rachel eagerly without blinking, "I've been I remember the girl I met on the set of "Four Weddings and a Funeral", beautiful and outstanding, and that beautiful night."

When he said this, he suddenly stopped, and then showed an embarrassed expression: "Sorry, it seems that this is not the time to say this."

Rachel forced a smile and remained silent. She didn't know what to say, but she didn't realize that just such a simple sentence from Adrian had already made her feel a little better.

"It would be great if you came in another two weeks in the morning, and there just happened to be a role for you to try." In order to ease the atmosphere, Adrian changed the subject.

"What kind of role?" Rachel asked curiously, unaware that the initiative had been taken by the other party.

"An American girl who grew up in the 1970s, was young and frivolous, took drugs, and longed for fame but lived a muddled life." Adrian said.

"Do you think I'm suitable for such a role?" Rachel frowned, but Adrian's answer surprised her.

"of course not". ..
