King of Hollywood

"Hey, Emma, ​​how are you doing today?" After getting the news from the servant, Adrian went downstairs to the little Emma, ​​"You don't seem very happy, the other Emma Playing pranks again?"

"Nope..." Little Emma, ​​who was curled up on the sofa, sighed, then turned her face and looked at Adrian with her chin resting on one hand, staring intently for a while. m

"Is there something on my face?" Adrian couldn't help touching his face strangely.

"No... I'm just... a little curious." Little Emma made a few meaningless gestures, and then suddenly moved a few inches in front of him, staring at him with wide eyes: "Am I pretty?" , Ed?"

"Pretty? Oh, of course, not only beautiful but also very temperamental, she is a fascinating little cutie." Adrian smiled and pinched her little cheek, but then felt inappropriate, withdrew his hand and coughed dryly Then look away.

"Then..." Little Emma, ​​who didn't realize it, continued to ask, "Then... Charlotte... which one is more beautiful?"

"Why do you ask this question?" Adrian was a little strange, and his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he wanted to see something from her little face.

"I just want to know." Little Emma said coquettishly, and even grabbed his arm and shook it twice.

Adrian frowned, pulled his arm back calmly, hesitated for a while before saying: "Well, you and Emma...you are as beautiful as Charlotte."

I don't know why these perfunctory words made little Emma a little happy. She immediately turned over and knelt on the sofa, and opened her eyes wider: "So...so did Charlotte do something, I can do it too?"

"Huh...huh?" Adrian blinked, looking at the girl in front of him inexplicably.

"I...I...I mean...I mean..." little Emma gestured, but couldn't say anything for a long time, hesitating and shy. Scan stealing milk  seems to be fanning  pay and withdraw ⒌ Mu shovel ё gull stalk picking  pelican breaking  foundation?

Adrian came more and more inexplicably, so he had to sit down again: "You can tell me if you are unhappy, Emma, ​​you have always been willing to tell me, haven't you?"

Little Emma raised her head depressed and bit her lips, but asked an irrelevant question: "Will you come to the premiere of the movie in a few days?"

Ok. She obviously didn't want to talk any more, so Adrian had to shrug his shoulders: "Of course, me, your aunt, Charlotte, will all come to attend, and it will be a very pleasant premiere."

In the hot schedule, not only big productions will be released, as long as the quality and prospects are good, there will also be certain competitive movies at this time, such as the starring role of Little Emma. Poe Moretz, a budding child star, plays her childhood appearance, adapted from Wendelin van Draanen's novel of the same name, "Heartbeat".

no doubt. This was arranged by Adrian for her. From "Little Miss Sunshine" to "Bridge to Wonderland" to "Thundering Heart", the route he planned for little Emma has shown obvious results. In terms of commercial value, Little Emma is far behind Little Emma, ​​but in terms of word of mouth, her advantage is incomparable to Little Emma. Among other things, the nomination for Best Supporting Actress gave her a lot of points. What's more, she is Julia Roberts' niece, and for some reason, she is the target of Universal Pictures.

So, as early as when "Pounding Heartbeat" started filming. Director Rob Reiner once praised her, and after broadcasting the trailer and the preview, many film critics gave higher marks, so although the scale of this premiere was not large, it still attracted many Media attention, and that's something to celebrate.

Therefore, Adrian tried to divert little Emma's attention with this, but the girl was still weak: "Okay."

Seeing this, Adrian simply pulled her up, and pulled her upstairs to play with Julia, Zeta Jones, and Patricia. She and Patricia got along pretty well. Then, after the girl was a little happier, he pulled Julia and asked her in a low voice. In Adrian's view, Julia was little Emma's aunt after all, so she should be able to sense that little Emma Emma had something on his mind, but the answer he got made him dumbfounded.

"Emma has something on her mind?" Julia blinked her eyes with a puzzled look on her face, not pretending at all.

Well, it is understandable that after giving birth to Patricia, Julia had to shift most of her energy to her daughter. Even though she cared for little Emma as always, there was still a difference. This is human nature, unavoidable, and the same is true of little Emma's aunt. From this aspect, the two Emmas can be regarded as having the same destiny.

Even though little Emma's parents are still there, she has not forgiven them so far, and the few times they meet are very indifferent, so she is also very sensitive to changes in her aunt's feelings. Adrian felt that her concern might be related to this, so after perfunctory Julia, he went to find little Emma to understand the situation after a few days, but little Emma also has her own troubles now.

"Do you know what I'm facing now, Ed? I have a war! And it's a war for you! How can I care so much?" Little Emma turned around in the room very depressed, brow Tightly wrinkled, very, very unhappy, as if in a great setback.

"If you frown often, you will grow old very easily," Adrian said with a sigh, and then quickly changed the subject when little Emma was about to pounce, "Didn't she go out with you that day? How much should there be?" Reveal it? Or, even in this situation, are you still... hmm?"

"Oh, of course, I emphasized just now, this is a war!" The little devil waving his arms and screaming, "I must win this war!"

Then, she suddenly thought of something and looked at Adrian, narrowing her eyes and showing a smirk: "Well, Ed, I can help you untie Ruth, but..."

"Don't even think about it." Adrian immediately refused.

"Oh, Ed, how can you be so ruthless." Little Emma immediately posted it coquettishly, and even planned to use a certain title, but Adrian held her mouth with his hand unmoved :"we have agreed upon it."

It was rare to see her embarrassment, how could he let it go. Don't look at little Emma's momentary advantage over Kate. Although Adrian has almost polished Kate's edges and corners, it doesn't mean that she has nothing at all. So, once Kate pulls the plug, even the little devil has to back off.

She only used a very simple method. Didn't little Emma say that she wanted a chest massage? It will take a long time to do this to be effective, and it is impossible for Adrian to do so many things every day, so... Let her do it for her.

Think of Kate pinning little Emma to the bed. How interesting and tempting it is to wait for her to exhaust her strength in the struggle, and then grab her softness and knead slowly. Moreover, little Emma can't resist yet, Lily is Kate's Achilles' heel, but He Zhihuang cuts off "甑 is grandma ǎ ǎ rely on  yao slow media  ┦ worry about last er er 蚶 Ying  trainer" I'm thinking about last, uh, oyster?

So when Kate forcibly pulled little Emma away from Lily and dragged her to another room under the pretext of "remember, we have something important to talk about", little Emma couldn't use Lily to get rid of her . certainly. As a result of doing this, Lily became more and more confused.

"I think... Mom and Emma are getting weirder and weirder. Kind of like... Aunt Charlie, but not quite," Lily complained to her father privately.

"Well... well, Lily, there are some small problems between mother and Emma. They have always wanted to solve this small problem, but they have not been able to solve it smoothly for various reasons, so they have been delayed until now. And this problem wants to be resolved in the future. It's not easy to solve it in a short time. But it's mother and Emma's **, even I can't get involved, so don't bother them. Okay?" Adrian gave his daughter such an explanation after racking his brains.

"I always think it's weird, Dad actually has something to hide, right?" The little guy squinted his eyes and looked at Dad for a long time before saying so, and then clapped his hands solemnly: "It's okay, then I'll wait for Mom and Emma to solve it."

Finally, she is about to be ten years old, and she is a bit precocious. Even though her curiosity is still strong, she knows what she can do and what she can't do. Otherwise, if she spy on her mother and Emma one day... Well, Adrian can't think of it anyway. With her daughter's reaction, facing the little guy is not much easier than balancing Kate and little Emma.

"I didn't say anything, and you rejected me." Little Emma continued to pretend to be pitiful at this time.

"Because I know what you want to say." Adrian stood up. "Okay, since you don't want to, then let's do it for now. I'll see if other people are willing to help."

After saying that, he left the room, which made little Emma very depressed, but she was not discouraged. After rolling her eyes, a smirk emerged from the corner of her mouth.

"Okay, okay, Ed, I'll just help you, but you have to give me what I want... It's okay if you don't!" The girl snorted "viciously".

Obviously, Adrian's playing hard to get had an effect, but little Emma also had her own ideas, and there would definitely be a good show, but they certainly didn't expect that the final result...was far from what was expected.

"Pounding Heartbeat" was finally released. There is no doubt that it has been praised by film critics, and little Emma's reputation has further improved. welcome. I just don’t know what will happen in a few years. It’s common for child stars to be compared with before when they grow up, and it’s also common for people to say that they are not as good as before.

However, although the ratings are high, the box office is very mediocre. In the first week, the box office of the 4 theaters was only close to 40,000. Compared with the same period, it was produced by Julia's production company and supervised by herself. Cadmium Harmony Bayu Qiao G Duan Neon  Mu Xi δ Xiaofang? The box office of more than 20,000 yuan in many theaters is far behind.

But as a relatively small work, this number is acceptable, and it is much better than the original version. This is the power of distribution. Whether the publicity is in place is indeed an indispensable factor for whether the movie can be sold well. Just like the Oscars, acting skills are the foundation. luck.

Of course, thanks to the fact that this is a PG-rated family movie, there is a lot of room for maneuvering, and Adrian didn't expect to use the box office to make money, so he could just keep his capital and get profits from other channels.

So, the party that should be held still has to be held.

"Don't be so sad, you should be very proud, everyone said you did a great job. But when they talk about me, they just shout: Whoa, Hermione!" On the sofa in the corner of the party, the little Emma put her arms around little Emma's shoulders and said carelessly, "I might be very happy at the beginning, but after a long time, I will feel... Oh, I shouldn't have agreed to Ed's role at the beginning, but I didn't The words... are really contradictory. I hate contradictions."

"Is it that obvious?" Little Emma asked listlessly.

"Huh?" Little Emma didn't respond.

"I said, isn't it obvious?" Little Emma repeated her own words.

"Almost," Little Emma, ​​who finally understood, clapped her hands immediately, "Anyone can see the words 'I'm unhappy' written on your face, do you know why people keep coming over all night, but then leave immediately? Just because... hey, Ruth, are you listening to me anyway?"

Little Emma asked in dissatisfaction while looking in the direction of her line of sight, and then froze for a moment, because it was out of sight. Adrian is chatting with a few people.

"Ruth, what's on your mind?" She looked at little Emma. Looking at Adrian in the distance again, Little Emma narrowed her eyes and asked.

"Huh? Ah, this..." Little Emma sneered when she came back to her senses, and then became a little irritable, standing up and sitting down, standing up and sitting down again, as if she was always hesitating.

"Ruth. If you have something on your mind and don't want to tell Ed and the others, you can tell me. We are friends. Isn't it?" Little Emma put on a persuasive look.

"Tell you?" Little Emma immediately showed an expression of "I don't believe you".

"Yeah." Little Emma spread her hands, trying to be frank, "I admit, I like to play tricks on you, but that's a sign that I care about you."

"Are you saying, do you want to date me?" Little Emma grinned.

"No," little Emma rolled her eyes, "I mean, Ruth, we are similar in every way, so if you have any ideas, you can tell me, I might be able to give you some ideas, what I can do You can do things too."

"If you can do it, I can do it too?" Little Emma repeated, and became hesitant again, but this time she didn't hesitate for too long, and after a few minutes, she finally got close to Little Emma's ear and mustered up her courage: "That night... that night last year... did you kiss Ed?"

Little Emma's face suddenly became weird, and she looked guilty like a cat who was caught stealing food. After a while, she asked, "You...you saw it?"

She didn't deny it, little Emma asked like this, so there was nothing to hide.

"Yes," little Emma let out a sigh of relief, and limp on the sofa, "I just wanted to go out and be alone for a while, but I saw Ed walking deep into the garden, and I wanted to follow him After saying a few words, who knows that you got out without taking two steps, and then..."

She stuck out her tongue, a little embarrassed, but there was a faint look of... expectancy in her eyes.

Little Emma believed that she read it correctly. In fact, with her intelligence, she had basically figured out what little Emma was thinking, but she still asked, "What do you want...to do?"

"I want to kiss Ed too." Little Emma curled up her neck and looked around before whispering with a slightly red face.

"Why...why?" Little Emma asked unconsciously.

Little Emma raised her eyebrows in surprise, as if she was a little surprised that she would ask such a question, but she quickly returned to normal, and looked at Adrian over there, with a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth, "You should know."

Well, little Emma has nothing to say, as she herself said, they are alike in every respect—maybe not every respect, maybe just two, but that's enough. So little Emma fully understands little Emma's fascination and longing, because she is like this, if so, then...

"Is there a suggestion I want to hear?" Little Emma said after being silent for a while, and then whispered a few words in Little Emma's ear.

Little Emma suddenly opened her mouth in surprise: "You have already..."

"Hush!" Even little Emma, ​​who was fearless, had no choice but to put her finger to her mouth quickly.

Little Emma quickly shut up, looked left and right to make sure no one noticed her, and then asked in a hesitant and excited tone: "How... how does it feel?"

"Hmm... want to try?" Little Emma blinked.

"Now?" Little Emma opened her eyes wide. Her body, which had been trembling all the time, trembled even more, but it was definitely not because of fear.

"But..." She still hesitated.

"Don't worry, tonight is a good opportunity. Your aunt has already gone back, hasn't she?" Little Emma said happily, "There is no other woman around him for the time being——I won it with great difficulty. I have my own arrangements, but since you are so sincere, I will leave it to you."

"But...but..." Little Emma became timid again, "I...I...he...and my aunt..."

"So what, if you want it, you should take the initiative to fight for it!" Little Emma encouraged her, "It's not like you haven't confronted me before."

But little Emma still looked hesitant, so little Emma could only sigh, and after glancing around, she took out a small paper bag the size of half a fingernail from her pants pocket and placed it in front of her. Shaking.

"Do you know what this is?" Little Emma smiled wickedly, "Spanish fly powder!"
