King of Hollywood

Ang Lee, Yu Jiaolong, The Elegant Swordsman in the Bamboo Forest, Wang Dulu's novels, there is no doubt that this movie is "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Adrian had no interest in it at first, but since Lin Chiling has been brought by his side, and she is also very obedient, it should be considered for her. Relatively speaking, it is more difficult for Chinese people to develop in Hollywood than Japanese people. It is more difficult to find a suitable role for Lin Chiling than for Yuki Hui. I won’t say much about the reasons. After thinking about it, Adrian put The idea came to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Although Xu Ligong, the producer who often cooperated with Ang Lee at that time, had already obtained the copyright of the novel, Wang Dulu had written five novels in total, and there was also a Taiwanese film called "Yu Jiaolong and Luo Xiaohu", so in Ah With the support of Derian, Bosworth got a small part of the copyright, and then bought the rest from Xu Ligong through various means.

At first, Adrian wanted to direct it himself. Think about it, an American directing a Chinese-style costume martial arts movie is a big slap in the face to those filmmakers in mainland China who are still immersed in their own world. . Although Hollywood blockbusters have landed one after another since 1995, and the big ship has reached a considerable height, but if these guys are not given a strong stimulus, they still have to wait two or three years before they wake up.

But after thinking about it, this is a bit shocking. Although the film version of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is essentially a kung fu film for the West, it still has some ancient style and artistic conception. It doesn't matter if a Chinese director can direct such a film. , even if he belongs to three generations of immigrants in the United States, it would be too exaggerated for an American director to direct, even if it is a well-known miracle director.

What's more, he has never been to China. It is definitely a troublesome thing to explain, and there will be a lot of speculation, so it was finally decided that Ang Lee will direct, even though he doesn't like this guy. As for Chinese movies, it doesn't matter, he has a series of plans, and this is just an addition. So what to do is to call Ang Lee over like now, and tell him that he can let him take full charge of the production of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", but Lin Chiling must be used as Jade Dragon.

Now Ang Lee is not qualified to challenge him at all. Although "Ice Storm" has attracted him a lot of attention, and "Riding with the Devil" will be released this year, "Sense and Sense" is what made him really famous. "Emotion" does not exist. This is also related to Adrian. When he asked people to buy the adaptation rights of Jane Austen's novel "Emma", these guys actually got the adaptation rights of "Sense and Sensibility" by the way, just because he said something at the time "It is appropriate to get more of Ms. Austin's works."

Until now, the film copyright of "Sense and Sensibility" is still in Adrian's hands, but if the project is not approved, it will expire, so he plans to let Blanchett and Gwyneth play the role of the sisters in the novel . For a long time, Hollywood has been very fond of English literature. If it is well produced, it is possible to get a few more nominations, and there are new content for role-playing, so why not do it?

In fact, even if Ang Lee still directs "Sense and Sensibility", he doesn't have much qualifications. As long as he continues to develop in Hollywood, as long as he doesn't want to be a local director in a small place like Taiwan, Adrian has a lot of ways to make him submit, so Don't worry about these. As for the international chapter, sorry, who is that?

"Do you really think it's a good idea for me to play such a smart but savage... chivalrous woman role?" Lin Zhiling, who was walking slowly in Adrian's arms in the night, asked tenderly .

I have to say that this woman is really good at pleasing men. After Adrian asked her to correct her way of speaking, although she practiced obediently, she still spoke a bit awkwardly when she was dating, but she managed it well. It's very good, it makes people feel numb but not annoying at the same time, and it also has a little girl's unique coquettishness, which is completely different from the deliberately tender appearance in memory.

"I know what you're worried about, Ling, but this role is definitely suitable for you." Adrian laughed, and tightened his arms around her waist, "This will be your first step towards the international stage. In time you will understand that what I have prepared for you are all good things, but—”

He changed the subject, and squeezed her smooth face with the other hand: "You also have to work very hard, do your best to practice, understand the role and cooperate with the director, understand? Even if my woman is a vase, she is Individually unique, inimitable, exquisite vases that cannot be ignored."

"I won't let you down, Ed." Lin Chiling smiled charmingly, and when his finger brushed the corner of her mouth, she deliberately stretched out the tip of her tongue to touch it.

"Very good, then should you also respond enthusiastically?" Adrian asked with a smile, the hand on the waist followed the curve to the groin, and then spread out the middle finger and pressed it in.

"You can do whatever you want." Lin Chiling winked, and then raised her hips lightly, saying nothing.

After the incident here, Adrian returned to New Zealand again. There was nothing to say. "The Lord of the Rings" continued step by step. With the advent of September, the temperature in the southern hemisphere began to rise, and some exterior scenes were finally ready to be filmed.

"Hurry up, guys! Finish these shots and we'll basically be wrapping up!" Adrian's roar echoed on the set every day.

"The ending? Is it the ending of the location shooting?" Elijah Wood sighed.

"It's normal, Elijah. Our director needs to complete the shooting plan as soon as possible, and then go back to Los Angeles to deal with things. It is said that he has a lot of arrangements this month." Sean Austin shrugged.

"In this case, why not let Peter direct? I think he has done a good job." Wood asked puzzled.

"Don't be delusional. Although it is said that they get along very well, and Peter also has a deep understanding of the novel and the script, it does not mean that the things he shoots will be fully approved by Adrian." Austin waved his hand and said.

Then the two were silent for a moment, and both sighed. There are quite a few people who hold this kind of thinking, and they often discuss it privately. Since you have to go back every few days, why not hand it over to someone who has done a good job directing it, and just be in charge of the production? In fact, to put it bluntly, they were just a little jealous. Whoever allowed Adrian to go back every month, even when he was here, he changed women every day, and I'm afraid he did a lot of things like sex.

In fact, all the actors and staff are well aware that it cannot be completed in a few months to bring such a huge "Lord of the Rings" trilogy to the big screen. Peter Jackson himself admits that if it were him For the director, it will take at least a year to shoot. But now, if I work hard, maybe I can really seal the show in October.

So everyone discusses it as a discussion, and basically treats these as gossip, and doesn't take it out and spread it everywhere. But at least one thing they said is right, Adrian is so anxious to shoot the location because there are many arrangements in September, such as the MTV Video Music Awards held at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York on September 9th. Awards Ceremony!

As the only music award comparable to the Grammy in North America—music awards such as "Billboard" have some reputations, but their influence is far less than that of the MTV Video Music Awards. After all, the speed of magazine spread is It’s not as good as TV—the MTV Video Music Awards attract a large number of well-known, popular and big-name singers to participate every year. Compared with the Grammys who are decades old, the MTV Video Music Awards is undoubtedly much younger and naturally more It's easy to let go, and it doesn't value qualifications so much, so it is very popular with the audience.

Viacom, the parent company of the MTV television network, has cooperated with the media, and has also exchanged shares with each other. However, Adrian's trip to New York to participate in the award ceremony is more to support Britney and Christina.

Britney Spears, who released her second album, can be said to be in the limelight now. Because of the continuation of the style of the previous one, "ps!n" has gained considerable popularity. Created a huge "me", as well as high-quality "rl" and "uWentAway", and made a female version of "ve"-yes, the song that made Westlife famous, Their voices are a bit too feminine, and a little modification is just right for Britney.

These excellent songs formed a strong chemical effect together, so Britney's second album sold 150 copies in the first week, breaking the first-week sales record for a female singer! Britney, who was already very popular, immediately stepped up to several levels, further establishing her status as a girl idol, and triggering different star-chasing frenzy when signing sales in various places. The flattery and flattery from the media also flooded in. Finally, Adrian's brainwashing and teaching of her was not in vain. Although she was a little dizzy, Britney still controlled her mouth very well and didn't say anything out of line. if.

In contrast, although Christina, who also released her second album, is quite good, she is far less popular than Britney. Among other things, the songs mentioned above stay at the top of the charts However, and the song "me" is still on the p100 of "Billboard", it is likely to break another record.

Who made Adrian partial, and only provided two songs "ttle" and "wwhy" for Christina's album. It’s worth mentioning that because of the loss of Pixar, 2D animation was rejected by Dreamworks’ “Prince of Egypt.” Disney, which started out with animation, is in decline. The project of “Mulan” was also abandoned early.

Although these two songs are very good, they are almost all-round inferior to Britney's songs that have been widely sung. In addition, the release time of Christina's two albums is too short, which will inevitably cause some aesthetic fatigue to music fans, so it is expected that Britney will be compared.

It's not that Norton, the artistic director, has persuaded her, but Christina insisted on catching up with this year's MTV Video Music Awards, which shows her competitive spirit. As for the results, Christina didn't win a single award, while Britney won Best Pop Video and Best Female Singer Video for "RL". The qualifications are a little bit worse, maybe I can still win the best video of the year-the MTV Video Music Awards just don't value qualifications and not at all, otherwise Britney's popularity last year would not have won a prize. get.

Even so, she was enough attention. When performing on stage, no one received more applause than her.

"Why worry about it, it's just the MTV awards. Since you can win Boo Boo at the Grammys, why can't Boo Boo win you at MTV?" Adrian explained to Christina at the subsequent party.

"Of course, this kind of thing is normal." Christina replied, but her smile was always a bit forced.

Although at the Grammys at the beginning of the year, she beat Spears to win the best new artist, but she was completely defeated by the other party in terms of popularity and album sales. Moreover, under Adrian's deliberate promotion, many good-for-nothings kept comparing them, and fans often attacked each other. Coupled with the previous accumulation, Christina wanted to compare Britney.

At present, it seems that she can't catch up in terms of popularity and album sales for the time being, so she will find a way to overwhelm her in various music awards. Unexpectedly, she actually shines so brilliantly in the MTV Awards. Although MTV is not as good as the Grammy, it is also one of the comparable music awards. How could Christina be willing?

She knew who made Britney have it all, and Adrian was on the few songs that Britney swept the charts, as well as some of her most popular songs, so Christina was there all night Think about how to snatch him over, and then have a good conversation in private.

Although this is exactly what Adrian wanted to see, he still declined Christina's invitation. Although she needed comfort, his pet's feelings also had to be considered. No matter who he chooses at this time, the other will be unhappy Besides, there are many reporters outside the hotel. Of course, more importantly, he has an important appointment in New York.

"What are you laughing at?" With the morning light coming through the curtains, Adrian noticed that Natalie, who was lying on the bed, seemed to be giggling.

"The way you came out of the room last night was...interesting, why didn't Mom and Dad stay a little longer?" Natalie turned sideways, with a faint smile on her delicate face, her petite body half covered under the quilt cover up.

"Actually, I think it would be better for them to come a few minutes later, so that they will see a daughter with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes." Adrian snorted.

"Oh? You are not worried that they will rush in and kill you now." Natalie said in a teasing tone.

"Of course you don't have to worry about it now, besides, you have successfully provoked my anger, my dear." Adrian said as he hugged her in his arms and pressed her down, Natalie giggled and began to struggle , The bed, which was already a mess because of the fierce fighting last night, suddenly became even more messy.

"Are you like this every morning, Mr. Adrian?" Natalie, who was panting on the bed, laughed, her legs were wrapped around Adrian's waist, and the bottom was tightly attached.

"Of course, so, bear it obediently, Nada." Adrian nodded triumphantly, and then kissed her lips.

After sucking fiercely, Adrian stood up suddenly holding her, and Natalie's legs were clamped even tighter. He just hugged her like this, walked into the bathroom while kissing, turned on the shower and pushed the girl against the wall in the water flow, supported her small buttocks and squatted down first, then pushed her up, Immediately after panting and groaning, he started his morning exercise, despite the splashing of the water on his body.

"It's a pity, I'm leaving soon. Although you have many things, work or classes, at least call me often, otherwise I will miss you very much." Adrian, who came to the door fully dressed, sent himself out Natalie said, "Also, I really like your new home, maybe you can consider buying it."

"If you want, I can call you every minute." The young girl poked his chest with her fingers while smiling.

"You know?" After putting on sunglasses and kissing Natalie again, Adrian showed a smirk, "I really like your coquettish appearance that has been accumulated for dozens of days and then released at once. So charming."

After finishing speaking, he laughed and walked away, making Natalie even have no chance to give her a blank stare.

Standing by the window, watching Adrian get in the car, start it, and leave. As the car went away, the corners of his mouth slowly began to drop. After his car disappeared from his eyes, Natalie also regained his composure , Then he let out a long breath, as if he was relaxing, and let go of the big stone from his heart.

Then she went upstairs to the bedroom and began to make the bed, which was still untidy. When fingers were slid across the messy bedding, a smile suddenly rippled from his face, and the words Adrian left before he left rang in his ears again, but only a few seconds later, Natalie recovered The cold expression before, then shrugged indifferently.

After tidying up the house and resting for a while, she immediately went to her parents' house, which was in Long Island anyway, not too far away, and returned to Boston in the afternoon. She will go back to New York this weekend, mainly because of Adrian's date. It's not good to refuse for too long, anyway... Now that the matter has been completed, it is natural to go back. According to the plan, the main energy now should be on studies .

Although it has only been two weeks since she entered Harvard, Natalie has a very good impression of this one of the best universities in the United States, and she also met two good roommates. One is Mammy Cornett, she has published her own poetry booklet; the other is Verina Brittin, she plays the piano very well and has held her own recitals in the community. I get along with classmates who are good at skills, but there are also many people I hate, such as... the members of the sorority. \u003c/p\u003e
