Vol 2 Chapter 131: Additional investments and more movies


Chapter 131 Additional Investment and More Movies
There is no doubt that Yuan Heping agreed that one more movie would be better. No one would want to go to the Hollywood show, not to mention Adrian, a "ghost", still admired him very much. However, it will take about two months to officially arrange for the actors to train. Monica is working with Tommy Lee Jones on a new movie. The main character of nv is a more ordinary family. At least most of the shots have to be finished before shooting.
It doesn't matter much. Adrian and Yuan Heping also made it very clear that there must be many differences in the working habits of the two sides, and this time can be used to break in. Moreover, he will be in charge of the first movie. He needs to fully understand the movements and fights they designed to determine whether it is suitable for what the movie wants to express. As for the second movie, there is still a corner. It is naturally impossible to arrange it. Trained.
Everything is settled down. Counting the time, Adrian has also begun to devote himself completely to the post-production of Eyes Wide Opening. Of course, what should be paid attention to should be paid attention to and asked, such as by the end of July Gwenis finally returned to Los Angeles from Rosarito and finally got rid of the "nightmare"
"Yes, this is an outright nightmare, God, James Cameron is definitely the incarnation of Satan," Gwennis said to Adrian, who had come by plane to pick her up.
Compared to half a year ago, she did clear a lot, but she still kept a good figure, at least she felt comfortable. She has reasons to complain. Although Adrian does not visit Rosarito often, she also knows that Cameron is more severe on the set than he remembers. After all, Adrian does not frown. He spent $ 200 million to splurge on him. Although Cameron had great confidence, he felt a lot of pressure at the same time.
So, it ’s common to spend four to five hours in the water wearing clothes like shooting a shipwreck. These two months are fine. After all, it ’s summer, but the first few months are really bad. Although Rosarito was in Mexico in the south, the temperature of the cold water was still relatively low in winter, so Gwennis got pneumonia and lay on it for several days.
Of course, Adrian rushed over the first time. She was lying on the bed for a few days, and he was with him for a few days, which made Gwennis a little touched. These details are quite sensitive. Maybe it looks irrelevant on the surface, but it's actually very thoughtful. If you want to coax the nv people, you need to work the details.
"Well, haven't you already punished him as I said? James also knows that he is going too far, so he is willing to be punished by you," Adrian said comfortably.
On the day Cameron announced the closing of the mirror, the bitter Gwennis remembered those words that Adrian had previously instigated, and soon contacted DiCaprio and many extras who played the corpse, and Came After Long called out, he immediately poured water on his head, and as a result, the film tyrant was soaked from head to toe. But after the end, Cameron didn't say anything, just shrugged. From this point, he is indeed a good director.
"Don't think about it that much, this film has already been made, and when it's released, you will know that the hard work is worth it." Seeing that Gwennis was still a little reconciled, Adrian immediately ěn At the corner of her mouth, followed by another prolonged voice: "And, I can guarantee, as long as James meets my requirements, then ..."
Although she didn't finish, Gwennis knew what he was pointing at, and immediately sat down on his big bed and offered a scent of incense. Would she stay with him besides being attracted by him?
As for whether "Titanic" will be released at the end of this year, Cameron, who is fully responsible, is not very sure.
"I can only say that I try my best. Although the shooting time is slightly longer, some later scenes are being produced at the same time. I can't give an exact answer unless you give me a period of time." He said so.
Although Adrian wanted to see the collision between the ship and the soldiers, he had to wait for a while to hear what the other said. However, there are always things that he doesn't want to see, and Cameron, who plunged into the studio two months later, found Adrian and made an inexplicable request.
"Add another Wonder investment?" Adrian didn't hide his surprise, and Cameron clutched his head and couldn't speak.
"James, you have to know that the total investment has reached 200 million, and you haven't counted the cost of publicity," Adrian said slowly. "Moreover, you should still have some funds in your hands, isn't it enough? ? "
"I know, Ed, I know ..." Cameron smiled wryly and didn't seem to know what to say.
Adrian is not a Fox executive in "history". The investment in big ships in "history" initially was only a little over 100 million. Cameron repeatedly asked for additional investment to 200 million. To this end, Fox executives are ready to jump off the building if they fail. But now, Adrian promised to give 200 million yuan in funding at one time, and still invest as a person. Cameron can threaten those executives with a temper, but not in front of Adrian. Dare to do so.
"Listen to me, Ed," Cameron took a deep breath, and finally calmed down. "I know this requirement is a bit excessive, but I believe that additional investment will make this movie even more perfect. At the beginning we had Several technical problems cannot be solved, so some scenes have to be replaced by other methods, so the effect is not particularly good. But just two weeks ago we have solved this problem, and I fully believe that we can do more grand and real. "
Having said that, he paused, and then he seemed to make up his mind: "I know exactly how risky this is, but Ed, please believe me, I can do it better. And, no matter what this film will be What are the results, my team and I have to give up all salary and dividends? "
After speaking, Cameron stared at Adrian with a shudder, while Adrian squinted his lips and lowered his eyelids. He wasn't thinking about whether he should answer the party's request. To know the investment amount of "Titanic", he remembered very well that the US dollar directly threw 200 million dollars directly from the Seal of Throne, but he wanted Cameron to learn to save under this pressure It is striving to complete the big ship within 200 million, but it seems impossible now, so the additional investment is basically a certain thing. Even if there are tens of thousands of publicity expenses, there are still tens of thousands of fluctuations, right?
So Adrian is actually feeling that although Cameron is a set tyrant and a technical madman, he is also a pure director who can bet everything for his own work. "Abandoning all salaries and dividends" seems to be of little use. Once the movie fails, there is no dividend. As for that point, it is basically a loss for the loss, but it is also the position of Cameron. If he fails, he will never Does not control the guide tube. This is very similar to the situation where he sold the "Terminator" script for 1 US. It is no wonder that some people say that only paranoia can succeed in this world. Compared with him, he is simply out of control.
It didn't matter if Adrian was here, Cameron next to him became more upset, almost thinking he was about to refuse. Fortunately, Adrian finally returned to God, and when Cameron wanted to get up and leave, he said, "I decided."
"So?" Cameron's eyes lit up, looking at Adrian with aspiration.
"I don't plan to add another ten thousand," he said solemnly, and laughed again after Cameron's disappointed god, "I plan to add another ten thousand investment."
"Okay, I understand what you ... what did you say?" Cameron's eyes widened in amazement, and he looked at Adrian in disbelief. He even reached down his ears and suspected that he had heard wrong.
"You heard me right, James, I did say, adding another 10,000 dollars in investment." Adrian said with a smile, "I want to be the perfect one. Since I invested $ 200 million because of trust in you, It ’s so different.

"Oh my ..." Cameron jumped up from the sand immediately, cheering loudly like a child, and excitedly held Adrian firmly.
"Thank you, Ed thank you so much, I will let you see the perfect work, I can guarantee it," he said incoherently.
"Okay, James, don't move too much, pay attention to the occasion?" Adrian got up and patted him on the shoulder with a smile. "Since I said that you would do wonders, then you will."
He paused, and after Cameron's mood stabilized, he urged again, "But just ten thousand, I won't give any more points."
"No problem, no problem," Cameron grinned, "sufficient, completely enough."
"I've heard you say this more than once, James." Adrian looked distrustful.
"Beware, I'm serious this time," Cameron said before leaving. "Well, I'll disappear immediately, and I'll put myself into post-production right away."
Adrian did not stop, but only when he was about to go out, asked again: "Yes, at the end of this year ..."
"It must be impossible," Cameron said in a sentence. There may be some places that need to be completely redone, and time is too late. "
"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter, it's been so long anyway, it doesn't matter to wait any longer." Adrian sighed.
Although we regret that we cannot see the collision between big ships and soldiers, it will not be a bad thing to release it next year. Only with sufficient publicity can we get better results. The reason why the additional 10,000 instead of the 10,000 required by Cameron, is likely to be close to the 300 million mark after propaganda costs-300 million investment is still very large after the 21st century, not to mention that the US dollar is now particularly strong ǐng-but it is necessary to think of Adrian.
Remember the global box office of Titanic? 1.8 billion right? Why can't we find a way to push the billions? What great achievement and aura would it be for him to reach this number? Just investing nearly 300 million yuan in the capacity of a person to make a global production with a box office income of 100 million yuan is enough to make people stand out, not to mention there are many other aspects to gain.
Yes, he has never been a pure director. His goal is to build his own media empire to control Hollywood, and then collect the nvs he wants to collect. Everything he does is moving towards this goal, and he can admire it. Directors like Cameron, but there is no need to learn from them, he just needs to move in his own favor.
"It won't be long." Adrian poured himself a glass of whiskey and said with a smile on the glass.
Of course, these are the last words. In the middle two months, Adrian also did a lot of things, such as he finally started to make a fancy clip of "Open Eyes", or check out "Wedding Awesome" , "Mr. Sweetheart" and "British Patient".
Needless to say, "Wedding Awesome", it can be completed in about October. This r-class comedy does not pay special attention to the schedule, so no special arrangements are needed, and it will be released at the end of the New Year. Adrian watched the next part of the completed clip, Liv's performance was quite satisfactory, some highlights but not many, most of the time is a beautiful ua bottle.
"You said it all, I'm a ua bottle, so make a beautiful ua bottle." Liv still looks like she doesn't care, but complains again and again that the good surprise that was said is not yet fulfilled.
"Don't worry, when your next movie is finished, I promise you will see a surprise." Adrian said, and then looked at her seriously: "But you may not like this surprise."
"It doesn't matter, I won't blame you even for the things I hate," Liv said, thinking with a crooked head, "Ed won't hurt me, right?"
"Of course." Adrian smiled and held her in his arms.
"Mr. Sweetheart" has nothing to say, progress is relatively fast, it is expected to be completely completed in early November, and the publicity work can now be prepared. Whether it's Cooper Gudding, Tom Cruise or Cate Blanchett, Scarlett Johnson, there are eye-catching places.
After watching most of the clips, Adrian is also relieved. Although the characters have changed greatly, the original little boy has been replaced by a small nv boy, but this version does not remember how much that version is worse. Scarlett in the movie When talking about Rugby with Cruise, he is right-handed, and he will definitely be popular.
Adrian has no less praised her in front of Milani, which is undoubtedly a good opportunity for Milani who wants to make her a star, not to mention that Scarlett also likes Adrian. Just don't know what expression she would have on her face if she knew Adrian's thoughts.
But these are all future things. Will Adrian's main force be on the people around him, such as Blanchett. Rare Gwennis returned from Rosarito after filming "Titanic", and Blanchett also just rested during this time, do not want to find ways to enjoy the blessing of the people, so that the two have the same temperament There are different nv people who euphemistically underneath this kind of things have always been very pleasant.
Although Blanchett sometimes resisted, it was a pity that everything was futile in the hands of Adrian, who had already revealed her psychology. What's more, Gwennis seems to like this feeling, and every time she takes the initiative, Blanchett can't help it. Under Adrian's training, she seems to have forgotten another option, and some things are addictive.
As for "The English Patient", progress has been very good, although it may be more than that of "Mr. Sweetheart" because of the perfectionist plot of Anthony Minghella-more or less every director. It's late, but it shouldn't be a problem at the end of this year.
"Remember, Sophie, Ralph, recall the situation at the time. At that time, Ralph's voice was not thick enough, but Sophie was a bit thin." The actor said this, and then gestured to stop the hand: "Okay, let's do it again once we are finished and we can officially close the job."
However, Mingra was still dissatisfied after another visit, and while he was meditating, Adrian, who had been on the sidelines, opened his mouth: "Anthony, maybe you don't have to be constrained by the feeling of shooting."
"Oh?" Mingra raised his head and looked at him puzzled.
"This is a conversation between Omar Shu and nv nurse Hannah about the past, and it is the part that guides the entire story exhibition, so as long as it can convey that feeling to the audience, it does not need to fully reproduce the original filming Feeling. "Adrian explained.
"So ... you can try it." Mingla thought about it with her chin, and then set up the two actors behind the glass.
After four or five repeated attempts in this way, Mingra finally found the tone he wanted, and this simple dubbing of only about ten minutes came to an end. The completion of this dubbing also means that the post-production of "British Patient" has taken a step forward, so after the event Mingra expressed his feelings, "Thank you, Ed, if it wasn't for your reminder, I probably don't know yet. When do you repeat, you are truly one of the best directors in Hollywood. "
Of course, a large part of this feeling is because Adrian invested in the film and asked him to take charge of the guide.
"Yeah, if it wasn't for your reminder, I don't know when he will be Anthony. He has to be disciplined." Ralph Fiennes, who came out of the studio, also joked. Said.
"It's nothing, it's just to look at the problem from the perspective of an onlooker. Naturally, it's more comprehensive than people who invest in it." Adrian said modestly.
"British Patient" is responsible for Miramax. Adrian just thoroughly understood the purpose of the film, and the Weinstein brothers accepted it, but they didn't know they were facing In the case of Soldier Ryan, how much can the "British Patient" supported by these two brothers achieve.
"Sorry, gentlemen, I'm going to take a step first," Sophie Marceau said politely at this time, looking dull without any expression.
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Adrian suddenly said, "Wait, Sophie, if we have time, can we talk a little?"
Sophie looked at Mingla and Feince after hesitating, and didn't seem to know how to answer.
"I won't delay you for too long, just a few words," Adrian added immediately.
"Okay." Sophie sighed and finally agreed.
However, she did not expect it. As soon as she entered the lounge, Adrian hugged her waist from behind, and took a deep breath on her show.
"It's so refreshing. What kind of washing water do you use, I can't even ask?" Adrian said in admiration.
"A kind of plant spice ..." Su Fei answered it with a sip, and came to her senses before she spoke, turning her angrily and shoving him: "Please take care of yourself ..."
Before she finished, she was stuck again. She hadn't said that before, but she did n’t need much. It seemed to be the same this time. Adrian then squeezed her chin gently, looked at it with admiration, raised her, and lowered her head to hold her petals.
Sophie shrank back, but wasn't particularly determined, so she was shut up by the opponent, but Adrian was not too arbitrary, but just touched up and down and sucked, and let her go.
"In your eyes, I just let N Fei at your mercy look at him half-smirkingly and questioningly.
"In my eyes, you're just a ndrien who needs to take care and shrugs.
"Do you say that to every one of your NVs?" Sophie's tone came with a hint of irony.
"No, I only say this to the nvs in need of care." Adrian smiled and didn't take her point of sarcasm to his heart, and slid his fingers across Sophie's face to remove a few wires from her, The movement was extremely careful, and with the staring eyes and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he seemed to be captivating something precious.
Feeling the martial arts, the sacred king will create the sacred king to kill the gods of the night, and the throne will be the best. The Night Killing God of the Seal of the Seal of God Seeking Demon Pride of the Ninth Heaven is the Strongest Abandoned Shao Zhou The Royal Family Creates the Night of the Night Killing God of the Seal of God Seal Seeking Demon Pride of the Nine Heavens is the Strongest Abandoning the Shao Da Zhou Royal Family She was slightly lost for a moment, but she quickly sobered up: "If that's all you want to say, then I'll leave early."
"Of course not. I'm thinking about a movie, but I don't know if you can do it. You know, after all, you don't have the temperament of a Russian nv. But then again, you have a different temperament from them, and that This kind of melancholy and tenderness is very tempting, maybe Anna Kalenina, which may be different from tradition. "Adrian said softly.
"You mean ... you mean ... intend to adapt" Anna Kalenina "into a movie." Sophie asked hesitantly.
"Well, after all," Anna Kalenina "is also a classic in history and has been shot in many versions, so when someone proposed to me, I thought of you first and then moved." Adrian capped. Her face continued in a soft tone, "In my opinion, you and Anna Karenina have some similarities, but if you play it, it is a bit inappropriate, so hesitated, thinking Listen to you. "
"I ... I don't know." Su Fei's bewildered can play the nv protagonist of the classic work, which is a very longing thing for any actor, no matter from which angle.
Moreover, Adrian has already expressed his attitude. Although some words have not been fully spoken, Sophie is very clear. As long as she promises, the film will start to prepare, even if it is not well-known after the production.
"Give me some time ... Think about it ..." Sophie said finally, but from the constant change of eyes, it can be seen that she really wants to agree, this is not something she can refuse, now say so only But she didn't want to promise in front of Adrian, and in her opinion, doing so was tantamount to giving up.
"No problem, if you decide, remember to call me." Adrian was not reluctant, but then asked again: "Well, which hotel are you staying in, I will send you back."
"I can go back by myself ..."
"Tell me what hotel you are staying in."
"I don't need you to send me, I can go back by myself ..."
"Frankly tell me, Sophie, which hotel are you staying in."
"You can check it yourself ..."
"No, I want to hear you tell me, Sophie."
In the end, Sophie, who was put up and down by Adrian in his arms, told him his address, and there is no need to say anything about what will happen next. She once again showed the wild and wild side of the French NV in the hotel room. .
Most of what Adrian said was true, except for one point, no one suggested to him to adapt "Anna Kalenina" into a movie, which he thought of himself.
In his memory, "Anna Kalenina" is one of Sophie's few works in Hollywood. As he said, although Sophie's temperament is somewhat similar to that of the novel's nv protagonist, there are also There are a lot of differences, and the director didn't grasp the rhythm of the story, so this version of the commentary starring her is not very high.
Sophie undoubtedly loves the novel, and she is more eager for fame than MVs like Monica, Julia, and Gwennis. Adrian is of course happy to meet her wishes, so I arranged the above scene, just need to modify the original script, and then find another suitable director, maybe it will get praise or not.
And even if it's similar to the original, at least the image of Adrian Ken doing anything for her is buried in Sophie's heart.
To his regret, Rachel had already finished his job a day before leaving after learning that several main actors had dubbed "British Patient". It's really a pity, if she could hold her semi-forced with Sophie, it would be very good.
However, such an idea can only be thought about. Sophie hasn't completely taken it down yet. Don't look at her like a picture on the top, and immediately she became a reserved lady nv. Even if it was really embraced together, Rachel might not say anything, but Sophie might not meet him again, and Adrian had planned ...
Well, it doesn't really matter. There are many other things here. It's not Monica, Julia, Gwenness, Blanchet, neither Cate, Charlize, nor Sarah. Liv, but ...
"Thank you, miss, next." Adrian gestured to the assistant.
The nv boy with an Asian face who had performed some performances in the camera before went out a little disappointed, followed by another Asian nv boy who came in in the assistant's greeting.
As instructed by the assistant, the nv boy changed a few clothes and turned around in front of the people in the room. After reading a few lines into the camera and doing a few actions-some of them difficult,-he went out. After more than a dozen cycles like this, Adrian was finally informed by the assistant that today's audition is over.
"Very well, what are your views and opinions?" Adrian asked immediately.
"I think No. 22, No. 31, No. 38, and No. 42 are suitable." After talking about each other, one of them said.
"No. 18, 22, 2 followed and gave the answer,
With them taking the lead, the others answered quickly, and Adrian looked through the files in his ear while listening. After sinking for a while, he looked at the two young NVs sitting on the left-hand side without talking.
"What's your opinion?" Adrian asked, adding: "It's all about feeling, don't think too much."
"We agreed that No. 33 was more appropriate." Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz looked at each other, and then gave a smile and gave the answer already prepared.
"Okay, I see." Adrian nodded, then stood up. "Here it is today, and there will be a final audition tomorrow."
As soon as he left the audition room, Drew and Cameron both caught up.
"Ed, you can't do that," said Drew holding his arm in a stunned voice.
"Yeah, you haven't indicated your attitude since the audition. Even if you don't say who is suitable, you have to talk about your standards." Cameron held his other arm.
The two NVs didn't care about doing intimate moves, and they didn't care that anyone in the corridor passed by from time to time. Adrian immediately laughed and hugged their waist and limbs with a smile. They might not dare to do so in front of the public, but wouldn't they dare to do it here?
"Don't worry, the audition is over, I'll discuss it with you," Adrian said.
But this obviously did not satisfy Drew, and immediately took him to her office: "That will not work, Ed, at least today you have to give us some clear a generation."
He said that he had a wink at him, and Cameron also gave an ambiguous smile on the other side. Adrienne moved a little in his heart and went with them to the office.
"Honestly, your office is very interesting," Adrian said, sighing after the coffee delivered by Drew.
Drew's office is based on pink and white, and there are small items everywhere, and a lot of dolls from jīng. From this point, she probably misses the time when she was making "et". The kind of carefree.
"It's really pretty. I suddenly wanted to have such an office." Cameron also sighed.
"So, why don't you invest in my film production company? At that time, I promise you can have such an office." Drew said immediately with a smile.
"Your company is too small. If I joined, there would be too many two such offices." Cameron hummed.
"Then you can share this office with me, and then," Drew gave Adrian a glance, "sooner or later the company will show up."
But no matter what they say, Adrian is holding the cup and drinking coffee bite by bite, as if this cup of coffee is very sweet and sweet.
"Well, Ed, we need to talk about business." Drew and Cameron finally failed to wait, and they couldn't compare with Adrian in this respect.
"What do you want to ask?" Adrian lowered his cup and asked with a smile.
"We just asked about the audition." Cameron pretended to be dissatisfied
"Well, it's actually very simple," Adrian shrugged. "The reason why you make judgments by feeling is that once you decide, the three of you will be the absolute nv protagonists, and they will be the next three. Conduct systematic combat training and practice some Chinese martial arts in the middle of the month, so your feelings must be good. So if you have a good first impression based on your feelings, there may be less conflicts when you get along, just like the two of you . "
"What else?" Drew asked with his fist on his chin.
"Secondly, she must be beautiful enough to be at least as good as the two of you." Adrian said very lightly and stretched his hands on the faces of the two NVs. Not only were the two NVs not angry, they stuck. Melen also opened her mouth to bite.
"She must have Asian characteristics and temperament, but at the same time must conform to the public's aesthetics. You know, American men's aesthetics of Asians are sometimes almost completely opposite." Adrian spread his hand.
The two NVs held their chins on the backs of their hands, and looked at him for a long while without blinking, and then Drew said, "Do you believe it, Cammy?"
"Of course not, what kind of egg he is, we all know." Cameron said half-heartedly.
"Oh, don't look at me like that," Adrian said, "I'm going to think about it, but you have a lot more, her acting skills, her experience, her appearance, how others feel about her. Move the gods, make the sacred king, kill the of the night, seal the throne, and ask the demon to be proud of the world.

You all know that I rarely do that. I always choose a casting before I start.
"That's right," Drew nodded, then looked at Cameron. "It seems Ed is still thinking about us, Cammy."
"Indeed, he is always very good ... for the NV." Cameron smiled as he watched Adrian, "So how can we thank him, Drew?"
"It's not necessary," Adrian waved, "I'm going to finish it first ... hiss ..."
Before he could finish speaking, he took a breath, Cameron's caught under him, his blue eyes looked at him without blinking, and his little tongue circled around his mouth.
"What to do first?" Drew pressed against him immediately, rubbing lightly on his arm.
"This is your office, Drew."
"You're right, this is my office." Fa.
