King of Hollywood

Chapter 173: A New Year

The desolate and thick horn sounded, and in the breached Helm's Deep, facing the army of orcs, Aragorn led Legolas, the old king of Rohan, Theoden and other few remaining warriors, and rushed forward. Get out and get ready for the last desperate fight. At this moment, at the entrance of the valley, where the sun rose, the sound of horses bleating sounded. Gandalf in white robes came back on time, and thousands of Rohan horsemen came back with him.

The half-orcs quickly found them, and turned their spears to take positions, while the cavalry of Rohan rushed towards the half-orcs under the roar of Gandalf and Eomer who led them. The dawn in the sky became brighter and brighter, and the dazzling light shone in from the mouth of the valley, like the light that dispelled the darkness. The half-orcs couldn't even open their eyes, and the situation immediately changed, and they were hit hard by Rohan's cavalry...

The movie finally came to an end. Amidst the melodious melody, when the lights were turned on in the auditorium, there was no suspenseful applause. Although the plot was a bit lengthy like the first one, the final turnaround was very encouraging. People's hearts, the shot of Gandalf leading the cavalry breaking through the half-orc formation in the morning sun is as impressive as Boromir's temporary oath to Aragorn in the first movie.

Sometimes, a movie that can leave a long-lasting aftertaste in the audience's mind and a scene that can make them feel emotional every time is a good movie.

Adrian also breathed a sigh of relief at this time. Although he had tried his best in editing, the rhythm was still unavoidably slow. after all. A lot of things need to be explained, and there are three clues in the second part, Helm's Deep, Isengard and Frodo's route, besides, the first part is 3 hours, there is no reason why the second part becomes 2 and a half hours .

But fortunately, compared to the original plot, the plot is much more compact, and the final Battle of Helm's Deep is also very interesting, so the quality of the movie will only be high or low.

"Thank you, I'm glad you like it." In response to people's congratulations, Adrian waited until the people were almost gone before going out. The box office in the first week should be good, but it is not known whether it can break through 100 million like "The Matrix".

"I'm sure it can. This is a perfect movie." Peter Jackson, who came to the premiere and hadn't left in the outer hall of the theater, said in an excited tone when Adrian was talking about this topic.

After all, this movie is his dream, and he put in a lot of effort during the filming. certainly. Adrian has no shame in his actions. In his opinion, Jackson should also thank himself. Without the self-inflated after the success of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, the current "King Kong" that is currently in production is very smooth . Not only did Jackson carefully control costs, but he was also very careful in choosing actors. For example, the leading actor is no longer Jack Black.

What a brain-twitch to cast a comedian in the leading role in a thriller. Basically, in addition to Naomi recommended by Adrian, and Adrian Brody and Thomas Kretschmann, who have the same name as Adrian, the actors in this version are now. All the others are non-original actors.

Let's not talk about this for now, it's a pity that Naomi didn't attend the premiere tonight, but even if she does, Adrian won't give her much time, this is the premiere of "Lord of the Rings", Gwyneth , Blanchett and Liv are all staring at him. But even so. When they left, Adrian was not with them. There are still a lot of paparazzi outside at the moment, and it is because of this that there are interesting things later.

"You can't do this, I didn't drive over!" At the exit of the theater, Silver complained loudly, holding a phone, "Oh, hell! How can I have a brother like you!"

"Hey, what's the matter, Silver?" Adrian walked over curiously.

"Well... this..." Silver seemed a little embarrassed as he grabbed his hair, but he said it after hesitating for a few seconds: "That's right, Jacques drove me here before, I didn't drive by myself .It was promised that he would come to pick me up, but now he called and said that he and Rui Fan had something to go out, and I was asked to figure out what to do! What the hell!"

He let out a long breath, with a gloomy expression on his face: "It seems that I can only call the taxi company. I really don't know what will be said if I am photographed by those reporters outside."

Adrian couldn't help laughing, and immediately took over the topic: "Okay, I'll take you back."

"Are you sending me?" Silver, who was dialing the number, stopped and squinted his eyes to look at Adrian. He and him are actually very close, so the relationship between him and Gwyneth is relatively clear. At this time, instead of going on a date with them, he said that he wanted to give himself a ride, which sounded like he had some other purpose.

"Yeah, anyway, I'm going to spend some time to get rid of the paparazzi, and I'll send you back by the way." Adrian grabbed him over, bent his neck with his arms, and his tone became vicious Get up: "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, Silver, you dare to guess me with that kind of small thinking, it seems that I haven't shown you for a long time, is it?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I apologize." Silver hurriedly begged for mercy.

Then, he got into the car with him. On the way, we had to talk about some things about movies, including Silver’s own, Rui Fan and Jacques’s. For his own plan, Rui Fan and Jacques should play a big role.

Before this time, Silver would turn his head to look at the night scene outside the car window so as not to disturb his thinking, but at the third time, he suddenly found something on the side of the road, his face changed immediately, and he looked at it carefully again. Look, after confirming, he suddenly shouted in a hurried voice: "Stop, stop!"

Although he didn't know what happened, Adrian still told the driver in front to do as he ordered. The speed was not fast, so he stopped on the side of the road immediately, and the hurried Silver jumped out of the car and said something "Sorry, please wait for me" and ran to an open space in the street.

Adrian leaned over and looked around, and there was a group of men and women frolicking over there. Looks very young, well-dressed, typical young people who go out to have fun at night.

Did he find out that his girlfriend was among them? Adrian thought very badly. Well, this is just a joke. As far as he knows, Silver hasn’t had a formal relationship with anyone yet. The three brothers of the Phoenix family are different from most men in Hollywood in this respect. Be careful when picking your girlfriend, so far. Rui Fan only has one real girlfriend, and that is Kristen Bell whom he met in 2000.

When he was thinking about it, Adrian suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong in the open space. Silver pulled a girl and was talking to those young people. She seemed a little excited, and those young people also bared their teeth and claws at him. The arms seemed to be about to snap at any moment.

no? That's true! While marveling in his heart, Adrian asked the driver to call the bodyguard who was following him, then got out of the car and walked over there quickly.

"Go back to your reception. Successful people, this is not a fucking place for you!" Before he could get to the front, Adrian heard a man yelling rudely, followed by booing.

However, Silver who stood there turned a deaf ear and just stared at the girl: "How many times is this already? Or do I have to go shopping in the street every day. In order to pick you up?"

"I don't need you! Go away!" the girl yelled unceremoniously, looking very unhappy, "Who do you think you are!"

"Did you hear that, successful people? If you have any brains, get out before we do it!" a young man yelled. Then there was a lot of noise.

"If I were you, I would shut up, otherwise I would wait to explain to the police why I took a girl who was just 16 years old into and out of bars at night!" Silver said coldly.

Immediately, the group of people fell silent, looked at each other, and then looked at the girl. Anyway, they're just a bunch of high-spirited kids out there having fun, not street thugs.

"Don't listen to him, I'm over 18 years old..." The girl hurriedly wanted to explain, but before she finished speaking, Silver, who had lost his patience, reached out and twisted her ears.

"Oh, oh, don't screw it up. Don't screw it up! I'll go back with you!" The girl screamed in panic, and her previous aggressive appearance disappeared instantly. The change was so fast that the group of young people couldn't help being stunned.

Silver didn't care so much, he just twisted the girl's ears and walked towards Adrian.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting." Walking in front of him, he sighed in embarrassment, "Can you also...see her off too?"

Although Adrian stopped immediately after hearing some words, Silver could see his movements, including those bodyguards who had come but stood far away.

"No problem." Adrian smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

Silver then twisted the girl's ears, took her to the front of the car and stuffed her in. Adrian made a covert gesture to the bodyguards and sat in the front passenger seat. Looking at the rearview mirror, the girl seemed to be about to cry, but she never resisted. However, she had long brownish-reddish hair and a few freckles on her face, which looked familiar.

"Trouble go straight through two intersections and turn left," Silver said as soon as the car started.

"I won't go back!" The girl suddenly burst out, "I can go anywhere, but I won't go back! Never!"

Silver didn't treat her like he did just now this time, but just rubbed his head with some headaches: "You have to go back, Lindsay, otherwise..."

"No! Never! Never, never, never!" The girl screamed, dancing in the car, with a faint cry, as if a spring that had been pressed to the extreme was trying to bounce back.

Although Silver was a little annoyed, he couldn't say anything, just looked at her with a sigh. Adrian didn't make a sound. From his previous address, he had already recognized this girl. She was a typical representative of Hollywood's degenerate girls in the new century. It was really surprising. How did they get mixed up?

"Okay, Lindsay, no matter what...that's your home too." Silver said this at last, and then, the girl threw herself into his arms and asked in a begging tone, "I'll go to your home All right, Silver, please..."

Silver's brows frowned suddenly, as if he was very embarrassed: "You know what happened last time, Lindsay, if..."

"No, no, no." Lindsay Lohan quickly waved her hand and said, "I'm already sixteen years old, they can't use this as an issue anymore."

So they started dating before that? I can't see it, Silver. Adrian, who was sitting in front and listening, was a little surprised, but seeing Silver like this, it didn't seem like that was the case.

"No, Lindsay, this is very troublesome. I'm not sure what your parents will do." Although Silver was refusing. But the tone was not firm, which made the little red-haired girl hug his arm even tighter.

"Can I introduce you now?" Adrian coughed dryly and came out to smooth things over.

"This is..." Lindsay noticed Adrian then, and quickly let go of her hand, lowering her head in embarrassment. It seemed that she felt differently about him than he did about her.

"Well, this is Mr. Adrian Cowell, a famous miracle in Hollywood..." Silver took the opportunity to change the subject, but Lindsay screamed again before finishing speaking.

"God! It's Director Miracle. I'm actually sitting in Director Miracle's car!" The girl was so excited that she couldn't help herself. If it wasn't for the roof of the car, she might have jumped into the sky and grabbed Adrian. He leaned his head over his shoulders: "I love your movies, Mr. Director, especially "Forrest Gump". I couldn't understand it when I was a child, but now I have a deeper understanding every time I watch it. Of course, there is also "Forrest Gump". The Matrix, that's pretty cool, 100 times cooler than Lord of the Rings!"

Speaking of which, she suddenly realized something. After glancing at Silver, he stuck out his tongue in embarrassment, then grabbed his arm again and said affectionately: "But there are some good parts in "Lord of the Rings". Really handsome."

Adrian couldn't help laughing at the genuine appearance that day, and also, now she is just a 16-year-old girl, which is different from the fallen girl in the future.

"Thank you for liking." He nodded. Then he reached out and shook Lindsay's hand again.

Only then did the girl remember that she had interrupted Silver's introduction just now, she gave him a cautious look, and then embarrassedly introduced herself: "My name is Lindsay, Lindsay Lohan, and I have been since I was 3 years old. I have worked as a young model and have acted in many movies. This year's "Hot Mom and Hot Girl" is the collaboration between Jamie Lee Curtis and me."

"You starred in Nancy Meyers' "A Couple Born", right?" Adrian asked suddenly, and then explained a little bit. "I've worked with Nancy and know her work."

"Wow, this is so cool!" Lindsay became excited again, "I didn't expect the director of Marvel to know my name."

Adrian smiled, then pointed to her and Silver, who had been silent all this time, and asked, "By the way, how did you know each other?"

Immediately, the expressions of both of them changed. Lindsay hesitated and seemed not to know what to say, while Silver frowned and seemed unwilling to speak, and even pulled her away when Lindsay was about to speak. a handful.

That being the case, Adrian stopped asking, and looked up the memory of his previous life, and he could almost deduce the reason. Lindsay's parents are even more bizarre than the little pet parents. Probably because Lindsay and Silver met for some reason on a certain occasion. Lindsay had a good impression of Silver, so one day it was unbearable During the domestic violence, he ran away and went to Silver. Then, her parents must have come to the door and threatened them with excuses such as abduction of underage girls. In the end, the Phoenix family paid for the incident.

This kind of thing is not easy to say by either side.

"Okay, so where are you going?" Adrian asked immediately.

Silver pondered for a while, and Lindsay looked at him with a look of pity, so he finally sighed with a little annoyance: "I'm sorry, but... go to my house."

This is a small episode after the premiere of "The Lord of the Rings 2". Although it was only a small episode, Adrian once again realized the power of the butterfly effect. Even though the two didn't feel the same way about each other, he could almost see Silver scrambling in the future, and the Phoenix men were very interested.

A small move back then led to such interesting changes, and Adrian couldn't help but want to see more such interesting changes. Anyway, the foundation of the media has been solid, so there will be future things.

Of course, let’s go back to the present first. Although “The Lord of the Rings 2” was released in the eyes of everyone, it was a pity that it still failed to break the record of “The Matrix 2”. It only got 90 million box office in the first week. Book fans, movie fans, and the media all sighed a little. After all, "The Matrix 2" was released four years after the first film was released. It would be terrifying to explode the desire accumulated in a short period of time. This is also the root of hunger marketing.

The fans of "The Matrix" are naturally very proud of this, but because of the different interpretations of the plot, there are too many factions, and they don't have extra energy to show off, so the discussion on "The Lord of the Rings 2" on the Internet Although it abounds, it is relatively peaceful.

Of course, word-of-mouth was as good as ever, and the media scored high marks one after another. The scene where Gandalf led Rohan's cavalry into the orc formation under the shining eyes was also regarded as a classic, and the name of director Miracle was once again resounding in Hollywood. and the world. Appellations such as "vigorous miracle director" have also begun to spread behind Adrian's back on various occasions. After all, it is really rare in film history to release three films a year. Adrian was the only one who turned the situation into a normal situation, and in the ears of some people in the know, this title had another meaning...

After that, Christmas finally came, and various works aimed at next year's Oscars began to be screened one after another, such as "The Hours" or Lao Mouzi's "Hero". Adrian knows all of this, but his main energy is still on Christmas, like Thanksgiving, spending time with his daughters, and then ushering in the new year. (to be continued..)
