Chapter 5: movie company

It is lucky to have a friend like Claude. Adrian shrugged in this way, greeted the waiter and continued to write and draw on the notebook after coffee. He is drawing a sub-shot of his first movie. There are many movies with small costs and high box office in his head, but no one has the low cost in his hands.
其实 He could actually go home to paint, but the original plan was to have dinner with Claude after meeting. But this guy actually said to him: I don't want to go to dinner with a man alone! And he laughed at him before leaving: I really don't understand why you always like to meet in this small and broken cafe.
Damn guy, where is this cafe broken? Not only is it clean and tidy, the service attitude and the scenery outside are also good, and besides, I haven't been here before ... Adrian thought a little bit about this cafe. Then he froze slightly, then shook his head with a smile. The integration is really good, plus it has been fully adapted in a few months, so that's fine, without having to bear too much of the past.
"Is this ... your painting?" A voice rang beside.
Adrian looked up, a sharp face appeared in front of his eyes, about 18 to 30 years old, very handsome and a sense of vicissitudes, I believe that attracted a lot of women and special for this cafe Hobby male. He stared at the painting in Adrian's hand without blinking, and seemed to be attracted.
"Any comment?" Adrian asked curiously.
"Oh, no, it's nothing," the other party responded immediately, filling him with coffee nervously, "sorry, if I disturb you, please apologize, please don't ... complain to me."
德里 Adrian shook his head with a smile and said, "I won't, but you can understand my painting?"
"Yes, sir," the other party nodded. "Although the lines are simple, I can see that you are drawing a movie."
Unexpectedly, Adrian suddenly showed a surprised expression, and the young man immediately explained: "I have played a few small roles in some movies, so I can understand them."
Adrien was even more surprised, and at the same time also interested: "Then what do you see?"
"Sorry, I just remembered some past events because of your split shot, not what you saw." The other side said honestly, "I haven't reached the point where I can see the quality of a movie through such a simple split shot. . "
"Some past? Don't mind ..." Adrian looked at his badge. "Mr. Knight, can you tell me?"
"Nothing to say, sir, I came to this city with my star dream when I was sixteen years ago four years ago, but after four years I can only work in a coffee shop for a living." Knight's tone was full of Xiao Suo's feel.
德里 Adrian then showed a stunned look, and Hollywood Vanity Fair was always attracting men and women who were eager to become famous overnight. It is a pity that one of the one hundred people is called a signing actor. It is already very good, but more of them want to live in a job after the dream of this Dennis Knight is broken.
However, Dennis' quality should be easy to gain favor? Adrian narrowed his eyes suddenly. Although he directed all the small TV shows before his rebirth, he still has a good eye for watching people with so many movies. Dennis isn't particularly handsome, but the corners are quite niche; he is very malleable, especially when he is only 20 years old. If you want to use a real person to describe it, it is similar to Brad Pitt.
I look at his Xiaosuo's expression, obviously what he has experienced. Adrian shook his head secretly, perhaps out of curiosity or simply joking, and he blurtly asked, "I'm preparing for my first movie. I need someone with acting experience to play the role. I'm interested to try it. ?"
Denniston, who was packing, stopped and watched Adrian for a long while then nodded: "No problem."
德里 Adrian raised an eyebrow in surprise: "You don't worry about me being a liar?"
"You don't look like a liar, sir," he said with a shrug. "Even if that's the case? It won't be worse than it is now, you're not Gay."
This guy ... Fortunately, Adrian didn't put the coffee in his mouth, but this way he became more interested in Dennis: "That's it, this is my business card. In addition, call your phone Give me, I believe I will call you soon. "
说 He said with a snapping finger, showing an inscrutable smile: "You're lucky, boy. From now on, as long as I want, I can make anyone a superstar!"

Paula Fernmeier hurriedly walked into the meeting room and sat down in his place, then glanced at his colleague. Although most of them were expressionless, the scorching feeling in his eyes couldn't be more obvious. He couldn't help sighing, and no wonder that the company was acquired and no one knew what the new boss would think of them.
I think it's a bit sad to think of La Verne here. He has been the general manager of this movie company for almost 7 years, and it is difficult to accept the company's acquisition emotionally. Although the Bosworth Film Company was small, it was established in the 1960s, and it has survived several storms. If not the boss's son needs capital turnover after inheriting the company, how can this highly qualified film be sold?
With the sound of footsteps, a young man of about 20 to 30 appeared with a smile at the door of the conference room. The sharp lines and a soft sense of intelligibility added to the rough face. A little handsome.
"Mrs and gentlemen, hello." The young man made it. "I am the new chairman of Bosworth Films, Adrian Cowell. I know everyone is worried now, maybe I will Some people will lose their jobs because of the drastic reforms. However, I assure you here that I will not interfere with the company's business for at least half a year, and I will not easily dismiss any of the gentlemen or women present here. "
Although he is not sure how credible this is, and he knows that the new boss has something to say next, the people sitting there, including La Verne, are slightly relieved.
"But in the next six months, I will inspect all of you here. As long as you can get my approval, I don't mind raising your salary. Of course, if you can't reach it, you can only say regret." The new boss said immediately A few people were nervous, and they looked at the general manager Laverne one after another.
Mr. Lafferne was stunned, and he was about to test a few words, and Adrian's voice rang again: "That's it for today, Mr. Mel stays, and everyone else please come back."
Soon, there were only two people left in the conference room, and even though it was not very big, it felt a little empty.
"Mr. Lafferne Mayer-can you call Laffer? Thank you." Adrian nodded with a smile. "I have read your information, you are an excellent general manager, if not for this company The company's wooden board is too short, and you can definitely make a career. If you can, can you tell me why you, who was already Paramount's assistant to the president 7 years ago, suddenly resigned and left to work in such a small company? "
"This world is not fair, Mr. Adrian." Lafferne shrugged without saying more. He believed that since the other party had seen his information, he must have known something about his experience in Paramount. "As for why Bosworth Film Company, and stayed for 7 years, that is because my father and Mr. Bosworth old have some friendship-are you satisfied with this answer? "
"Very satisfied," Adrian laughed. "Well, Laffer, don't worry, I said that within half a year, I will do it if I ask the company's career."
"If you can, can you tell me your plan, Mr. Adrian?" Raphaun asked now.
Adrian gazed at him for a few seconds, and then smiled slightly: "It's very simple. I'm going to the UK to produce and direct a small-cost movie. I plan to complete the filming and post-production within 2 months, and then send it to Venice in August The festival is exhibiting, so you have to help me arrange a few people who are familiar with the business. "
"Sorry, you mean ..." La Verne looked at Adrian in disbelief, and he had no idea that the new boss would like to make a director's movie by himself. UU reading books www.uukanshu. com
"You heard me right," Adrian nodded strongly. "I will direct and produce a Class B film that costs no more than $ 200,000 in two months, and then send it to Venice for exhibition. And, although this This is my first time as a director and producer, but I believe the box office for this movie will definitely cost hundreds of times. "
听起来 "It sounds ... very good." Laffern rubbed his head and said with a grin.
"I know it's difficult for you to accept the vernacular, but you will see the facts in two months, La Verne." Adrian smiled and spread his hand, "I will tell you a little bit, and I will soon The first capital injection of the company and the acquisition of Bosworth Films is just the beginning. "
Paula Fern didn't speak, just watching Adrian wait quietly for his following.
"You are a smart person, La Verne, I need the help of a smart person," Adrian sat up straight. "I hope you can ensure the normal operation of the company within this half year, especially those connections and networks."
Mr. Wu, the general manager, does not believe the new boss's words. He has been in this industry for more than ten years, and he has never seen anyone. But from the last sentence, he still heard the ambition of the other party, and the self-confidence revealed in the language could not be ignored. So after groaning for a few seconds, Lafferne stood up and nodded: "I'll be happy to help you, sir."
"Very well, then." Adrian knocked at the table, and suddenly remembered something, "Yes, in addition, you can make a report of the script submitted to the review team, and list it in the table of contents and profile every week. Give me a glance. "
When he said that, he laughed: "Don't worry, I only have some experience in screenwriting. I just bought four scripts, and two are still on sale."
