King of Hollywood

Chapter 285 I chose it myself

"I'm much better now, and I've found my goal. I hope to obtain a paralegal certificate with my own efforts, and then step by step to become a civil rights lawyer like Susan!" said about ten people standing in the center of the bright living room. The seven or eight-year-old girl ended her speech with such a sentence, and immediately there was a burst of applause.

"Thank you, thank you Paris for your speech, it was great." Adrian, who was seated at the top, applauded and stood up immediately, "I must say that today's party was a success, and you all have found your goals , I hope you can work hard in the days to come and realize your dreams."

The applause rang out again, and then the young people present began to make noise, some left quickly, some asked Adrian for a few more words, and some asked Natalie for an autograph.

"Thank you, Natalie, thank you for your encouragement, I will work hard, I will." Paris, who had given a speech before, was holding a card, Ami of "Star Wars Episode 3", which will be released in the summer vacation Queen Dara's poster, asking her to sign it while speaking in an excited tone.

"I'm sure you will," Natalie replied, smiling and sincere. "You'll make an excellent civil rights attorney, Paris."

After a while like this, when the young people had left*, Adrian made a gesture of invitation to Natalie: "Okay, we should leave too."

Natalie immediately put away her smile, and walked side by side with him to the parking lot in silence, without saying a word on the way. Adrian didn't speak, but just sat on it and asked the driver to drive back. After a while, she finally couldn't hold back.

"You come here often?" she asked.

"It doesn't count, you know, I always have a lot of things," Adrian shrugged, "but as long as I am in Los Angeles, I will come over at least once a month, listen to them talk about their lives and their efforts, and encourage them to go to work. Good development. In fact, many times, these young people who give up on themselves just need someone to listen to and encourage them. I don’t support this psychotherapy center and set up a charity fund for tax avoidance. I just want to better help those who really want to Young people who want to cheer up, don't have any other ideas, that's all"

Natalie remained silent. Although her eyelids were drooping, her constantly moving fingers had already betrayed her inner world. Obviously, the sudden new image of Adrian made her once again tangled and at a loss.

So, now you should be more sure, right? "Adrian, who saw it in his eyes, said calmly.

"Huh?" Natalie looked at him in confusion, as if she didn't understand what he was talking about.

"You have read Paris's information," Adrian continued, "she has lived in a single-parent family since she was a child, and her mother controlled everything in her life before she ran away from home. Because of this, she resisted violently and even committed suicide. , if you rolled up her cuff just now, you should still be able to see the scar on her arm. In short, at that time, her family conflicts were extremely acute, which eventually caused Paris to run away from home and... her mother collapsed. More I won’t go into details, you can check it at any time if you need it, in a sense, this script is inspired by her experience.”

He paused here, seeing that Natalie didn't intend to answer, and then continued: "As you can see, she likes the Star Wars series very much, and she also likes Queen Amidala very much, so I will take you See her. You can take the time to chat with her more about this, don’t worry about irritating her, this is also a kind of therapy. Only when a person dares to face his dark past can he really stand up, so you You can also fully experience the feeling of being controlled, you should know that the theme of the script is the tragedy caused by the strong rebound caused by the invisible and invisible control."

The word "control" was bitten hard by him. Although Natalie still lowered her eyelids as if she was not listening, her breathing became obviously a little disordered. There is no doubt that her heart is even more chaotic. Who else feels more controlled than her? There is also a script...it is really tailor-made.

"It seems that you don't like this script?" Adrian put his arms around her waist, "It's okay, if you don't want this role, if you think it's not suitable for you, I won't force you."

"No, I'm just..." Natalie said reflexively, but then closed her mouth again, brushing the hair on her forehead, not knowing what to do.

"I'm serious, Nada, I respect every choice you make." Adrian raised her chin, looked into her eyes and said in a very sincere tone.

Complicated expressions flashed across her face, Natalie suddenly turned her head away, her shoulders trembled slightly, and after such a moment, she slowly raised her head again: "No problem, I can handle it."

"Very well, I look forward to your perfect performance." Adrian nodded, then looked forward with a long breath, with an indescribable disappointment in his eyes.

Her agency contract is managed by Michael ? Ovitz is in charge of it himself, her public relations contract is also appointed by him, and the people around her are all arranged by him. How could he not know what she was thinking and planning. He didn't need Rachel to tell him that Natalie's every move was in his eyes, especially the matter of adding her to the plan had been decided early on.

Obviously, Natalie never really reflected on why she got to where she is today, and she put all the resentment on him and continued to deepen this impression. This is normal, and her opinion is not wrong, he is indeed the culprit, but the problem is... Is she so flawless, without any problems?

Of course, most people are like this. When accusing others, they usually subconsciously classify themselves as innocent victims. Even if Adrian II is a human being, it cannot be avoided, otherwise he would not be so gaffe after the showdown No matter how smart or worldly Natalie may be, she's still just a young girl.

Therefore, she has never seized the opportunities that Adrian gave her. As it is now, she has... no more courage. Cherish your body" to describe him. Of course, Adrian would never deny that he was in charge of all this, but there is a line in the movie that was going to be sent to Scorsese to remake the relationship to improve their relationship.

The road is chosen by oneself.

In the years to come, the 77th Oscar is bound to become one of the most talked about by movie fans. The huge momentum caused by "Brokeback Mountain", the battle for the best actor among the Phoenix brothers, and the second youngest best actress The birth of the protagonist, and the unprecedented consecutive best director of the director of Miracle, or the little-known "Crash" defeated a lot of powerful enemies to win the best movie, these are worthy of people's gossip from time to time.

In addition, the director of Miracle won the best actor and actress with two films at the same time, and has an ambiguous relationship with the second youngest best actress, which is also a good talk.

But even so, the popularity of the Oscars has slowly subsided after the awards ceremony. No matter what happens, there will be a time to subside, let alone someone who intends to guide public opinion. In addition to supervising his new movie and having to complete all the post-production before mid-May, Adrian still spends time with women and children very easily, and pays attention to the release of some next movies.

Low-budget comedies and horror flicks love an off-season, which pays for itself easily, so Blake? "College Freshman" starring Lively was also selected at this time.

"Don't worry, even though an October release would be relatively appropriate, it will still resonate with those who have lived in college for a semester, and maybe more." At the raucous party, when Blake pretended When worried about the box office, Adrian laughed and said so.

"Yeah, you really don't need to care, Blake." Leighton who was standing on the other side of him said with a chuckle.

"Actually, what I care about is not my debut movie. According to the confidence from the previous feedback, word of mouth has surpassed many movies of the same type." Black responded with a smirk, and then looked at Adrian: "It's too noisy here, Ai Dude, how about somewhere quieter, like my apartment? I recently moved out and I'm practicing my new cheerleading dance, which is sure to be more inviting than ever."

Before Adrian could speak, Liton raised his eyebrows and said eagerly: "It's better to go to my place. The familiar place is more sensuous, and you can see the changes more clearly."

As she spoke, she put a stick on Adrian's side, which was already very close, and if she did this, she almost grabbed him and put him on her body.

Not to be outdone, Blake leaned towards Adrian, and seemed to be snuggling into his arms: "Keep trying new things to keep your passion alive, isn't it?".

"Okay, you two, don't be like this," Adrian smiled and raised his hand after Liton's face turned ugly, to stop them from arguing any further, "You are both cute and sexy girls, no matter which one you give up, I will I'll be sorry, and I'm sure you won't be very happy, so how about going to my beach house in Santa Monica?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, hugged Litton and Black into his arms, and rubbed their buttocks recklessly.

This action made the two girls stunned, and Blake's face immediately became a little ugly. The scene of Adrian taking away her virginity behind the one-way glass in front of so many people has always been deeply imprinted on her. in mind. Every time she thinks of this, she will feel very uncomfortable and...perverted excitement, which is probably why she always agrees to some of his excessive demands after refusing.

It's just that this doesn't include threesomes, especially with your opponent, but Leighton didn't give Black much time to think about it.

"No problem, I've actually been looking forward to it." Probably seeing Black's face, or not caring about it at all, Leighton agreed immediately, and at the same time provocatively puffed up her chest to Black, looking at her His eyes were a little more complacent and disdainful.

Undoubtedly, Blake was irritated. She hardly thought about it. She also puffed up her chest and rubbed against Adrian's arm: "Really? Then try it."

For her, overpowering Leighton has basically become one of her instincts. Only when she completely overwhelms the other party can she face the fact that the object she bullied once seized the opportunity to ride on her head.

So, it was cheaper for Adrian. That night in the villa, Leighton and Blake took turns to compete with each other, and the competition between them was extremely fierce, even when Gwyneth and Blanchett competed at the beginning, it was not to this level. , Losing to no one can lose to the other party. Even though Leighton deliberately provoked under Adrian's instruction, it didn't mean that she didn't desire to overwhelm Black forever.

So this evening, Adrian basically played with them as he wanted.

Of course, the reason they were willing to let him play like this, apart from the irreconcilable conflicts between them, was mainly because of his power. Think about it, is this the first time in a row after holding a movie? Not to mention winning the best director this year.

Again, perhaps in the eyes of many movie fans and fans, they have their own personalities and pride, they appear unattainable, and they have the right to refuse. Unfortunately, in the face of real power, these are not worth mentioning.

In addition to "College Freshman", there are many movies related to Adrian, such as Dakota? Fanning united with Robert? The horror movie "Hide and Seek" starring De Niro, after several years of hard work, the little girl's acting skills are getting better and better, but it's a pity... this movie may be better in October, after all, before Halloween A work that is very suitable for this type of work, but it is not bad now. Anyway, this is an anticlimactic work. Even if the release is delayed for a few months, the box office will not have a qualitative leap.

Then "Super Dad" with Ji Li participating in the performance was also selected at this time. This movie was produced by Disney, and they are always the best at similar movies. Although Ji Li became popular with "Super Hero" and has the title of "Big Breast Cheerleader", but the plot of the sci-fi drama is more likely to collapse as it progresses. At present, even if there are not too many bad situations Influence, it will be almost the same in the fifth season, so Ji Li must find a way to maintain her popularity.

Adrian's arrangement is to act in some youth comedies such as "Super Dad". Anyway, she is still young, and it is suitable for her to look tender, and she does not need much acting skills. He has never known how good her acting skills are, so An An can be a vase with peace of mind, but it will be different if she is Scarlett.

Last year's "Love in New Jersey" allowed Scarlett to continue to maintain a high reputation in the critics, so except for "X-Men 3", which has been scheduled for this summer vacation, her movies are basically low-cost, A certain box office can be recovered, but word of mouth is guaranteed. For example, because of Adrian's interference, the plot was deliberately adjusted, and the release of "Big Company Little Boss" was delayed until the end of September this year.

He knew that she understood what he meant by making such an arrangement. After all, Scarlett was not Keeley. Although they had to fight Adrian together, they had to have a chest competition, but Scarlett always beat Keely with her own mind. Playing in the palm of your hand. Of course, it wasn't that Ji Li hadn't noticed it. She was somewhat clever, but it was precisely this cleverness that made her never say anything.

She knows very well who gave her everything, and the longer she stays here, the more she understands that as long as Adrian doesn't speak, she doesn't care, and she doesn't suffer anyway. From this point of view, Ji Li is also a very good pet .

Well, these are the movies to be released in March, and the new movie schedule, except for the script for Natalie, which is slowly being prepared-mainly focused on the previously completed one, and this one The investment and required scenes are not big - and another one is also in preparation.

"Welcome to my office, Paul, don't be so nervous, I just want to be formal - hey, Lily, what are you doing?" Just talking to Paul at the door? Haggis said hello, and Adrian turned around and shouted, "What did I say? Don't touch my folder casually."

"I didn't move casually, I just wanted to see what was written on it." Lily stood on tiptoe, stuck her head out from behind the desk, and said confidently.

"Are you sure you understand?" Adrian rolled his eyes, "Okay, now Dad has a guest, you have to go out for a while, we agreed."

"Can't I sit in?". Lily ran out from behind the desk reluctantly, "I want to see how you work."

"You have seen it just now, and..." Adrian repeated what he had said before, "We agreed."

"Okay, okay, I got it." The little guy mumbled and came to the door, then puffed up his chest, turned into a little lady, and stretched out his hand to Haggis: "Hello, I'm Lily, Lily ? Cowell."

"Hmm... hello, Miss Cowell," Haggis hesitated, but still shook hands with her, "I'm Paul? Haggis."

"Are you a screenwriter or a director, Paul?" Lily looked up at him with a familiar look, "I like writing stories and shooting pictures with DVs. I dismantled and reinstalled several DVs at home. I can put it back completely every time, isn't it amazing? Of course, Dad doesn't think so, he always says I'm making trouble..."

Seeing her chattering, after covering her forehead, Adrian simply lifted her up and put her outside, and then slammed the door shut.

"She will be ten years old soon, you know, ten-year-olds always have endless energy." He said to Haggis who was a little stunned, "They are the most troublesome guys in the world, and they are also... Cutest baby."

"It's true, to parents, children will always be their treasure," Haggis agreed, and sat down in a chair.

"So I really like the scene in "Crash", where the little girl pounces on her father. It's a very beautiful scene." Adrian opened the cabinet and made a questioning gesture to him.

"No, thank you, I don't drink at this time." Haggis waved his hand hurriedly.

"That's great, then I don't need to bother," Adrian walked back with a smile, "Well, can you tell me now, do you have your answer, Paul?"
