Vol 3 Chapter 319: Big hand


"Do you really agree?" Adrian asked again, staring at the girl in front of him, seemingly unbelievable.
Charlize simply didn't answer this time, just shrugged.
"Okay ..." He squeezed the bridge of his nose with a bitter smile and a depressed smile. "You should understand that I let them find you because I wanted to reject them by your mouth."
"Oh?" Charlize raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Isn't it that you want to say yes and I'm sorry, so let me do it for you?"
There is no doubt that she was deliberate. Although Adrian hated his teeth it was helpless, and stared again for a long while before saying, "What have you promised? You have never acted in a movie."
"They said that this role is just a vase, which doesn't require much acting skills. I used to visit your studio when I was in charge of the secretarial work. I have also supervised some TV series in recent years, and I am familiar with that set. He said, "Besides, Kate has their own role, I think I can also try it."
"Can you try? Ha ..." Adrian rolled his eyes and scratched his head. "Okay, but don't forget, Charlie, you are now the vice president of ABC. Do you have time to participate in the filming?"
"I haven't taken off this year's annual vacation, and Stan? Li assures me that there will not be too many small peppers, and it won't take a month for all of them together." Holding a smile.
"I won't agree." Adrian could only use this trick in the end.
"It doesn't matter, Crow agrees." Charlize then looked to the other side, sitting there without talking from beginning to end, Crowd bored playing a pen game.
"Me?" He finally looked up after hearing himself being lifted up, and then made an unconcealed gesture of thinking, apparently he had never been listening before. Then he shrugged and looked at Adrian with a smile: "No problem, I agree."
After hearing this, Adrian twitched at the corners of his mouth, and asked darkly, "Are you going to fight me, too, Crow?"
"No, no, Ed," Claude smiled, waving his hands. "I really think Stan's proposal is very suitable for you. Think about it. Real geniuses, billionaires, and playboys are here in person. How exciting it is to play geniuses, billionaires and playboys in the film. "
"That being the case, why don't you try it?" Adrian turned his lips back.
"I really want to, but the problem is, first of all, I need to manage the company, not as free as you; secondly, I do not meet the third condition, and I do not have a close lover who is a vice president from an assistant secretary. Claude shook his finger with a grin, then smiled apologetically at Charlize, and Charlize made a casual gesture that she didn't mind at all.
"Also," he said without waiting for Adrian to speak, "and the most important point, Ed, you are AC Media's signboard, you are already so dazzling, do you want to hide your light? Get up? Why can't you be more dazzling? Not to mention that you can also use this opportunity to instill another image in people. "
Hearing this sentence, Adrian who was trying to refute could not help but think about it for the first time. Is he actually playing Tony? Stark didn't contradict, even eager to try, just like Stan before? Old Lee and Claude now say that playing geniuses, billionaires, and playboys as geniuses, billionaires, and playboys is really a gimmick. Even Adrian can't help but feel like this. The feat of no one before and no one after is very appetizing for him.
Not to mention how much he respects Howard? Hughes, he is a real genius, a technical genius. Even if such a person is full of quirks, it is no wonder that he will create Tony based on him. Stark. Adrian would definitely not be able to play a real person, but it would be no problem to play a virtual superhero based on him.
The point is that before that, he remained in the mode of one foot in the foreground and one foot behind the scenes before winning the best director three times in a row. Now, he is basically at the front. This situation must be controlled. He really needs to focus his eyes. Otherwise, he can continue to find ways to get the best director and become the person with the best directors. Not now. A few years are fine too.
So even if Marvel described the prospects as attractive, he did have some enthusiasm, but eventually had to refuse in a euphemistic way. What I didn't expect was that Charlize put himself together and helped Claude La as a lobbyist. After hearing her affirmative answer, Adrian really wanted to "learn" her on the spot.
But Claude's words opened another door for him. After all, actors and directors are different. A great director is not necessarily a great actor. This is a process from 0 to 1. Instead of from 10 to 1000. What's more, this is a commercial movie. It has nothing to do with honors and Oscars. People just think it's funny and incredible, not too much.
At the same time, this can make Adrian appear to the public with a brand new image, especially his characteristics and Tony? Stark was so close, so why not agree?
"I have to admit, Crow, your proposal made me very emotional, but ..." Adrian said casually, but unfortunately he was interrupted by the exit: "Come on, Ed, you just Can you hurry up and answer 'yes'? "
Adrian couldn't help feeling a little angry, and glared at him before looking at Charlize: "Is this exactly what you think?"
"Hmm ..." Claude couldn't help but smiled and shook his head. "Well, Charlie first touched me, and then I ... think so."
Just as Charlize knew Adrian, why didn't Adrian know Charlize, since she dared to put herself together so boldly, there must be a reason. Well, although most of them must be playing tricks on him, this reason is indeed acceptable, and ... Charlize didn't want to appear with him deep in his heart, so-
"That's it, I will make this movie a little more interesting." Adrian sighed, but slyly smiled when he said the last sentence, followed by muttering: "Damn, My paladin has reached level 30. "
Basically, as soon as Adrian relaxes, things are almost settled. However, it is still a long time before leaving the plane, and formal signing is essential, even if Marvel Comics is the parent company of AC Media. There should be a lot of business rules, otherwise it will be quite troublesome to peel the skin in the future, even if there is a contract.
In addition, any requirements can be discussed at this time. After fully communicating with each other, consensus can be reached. For example, Adrian requested that no wind be disclosed before the filming was completed, at least not to let the media know that he and Charlize were separate. As Stark and Pepper. Surprising and Universal agreed, but immediately gave a 2 million film fee, and hoped to sign at least four film contracts.
Of course, this is impossible, and Adrian, who knew what they were thinking of, immediately rejected it. The 3 million pay is acceptable. Anyway, he is a newcomer from the perspective of the actor, but it is impossible to sign more films. Although he knows this is a series, the Iron Man trilogy and the Revenge Alliance have been arranged, but This does not mean that they can do whatever they want, so--
"One by one, I can guarantee that it won't go too far." Adrian said to the group of surprises.
The purpose of finding him was to save money in addition to enough gimmicks. As mentioned before, if Adrian appeared as a newcomer, then the pay would not be much. If this price can be discussed in the next few books, Come down better. This sounds like an exaggeration. Amazing that even his boss wants to be crushed, but as long as he thinks about how they used to treat those new actors and actresses, you can know that these guys can do it completely.
However, after all, Adrian is not a rookie actor, so 2 million pieces of pay are also ok. In the future, it will be acceptable to gradually increase to 10 million to 20 million depending on whether the box office is a big seller. How much more popular is the Iron Man series?
In addition, it is also necessary to hold an exchange meeting after the crew is initially formed, otherwise how to cooperate? Imagine the expression on the part of the crew, including the director and the producer, after seeing Adrian taking Charlize into the conference room and sitting down on the lead role.
"You ... Hello, Mr. Cowell, I'm ... I'm ... Jon? Fei Ru, you can call me Jon." The fat director stammered and greeted Adrian.
Amazing and Universal finally chose Jon? Fei Ru is the director of "Iron Man". At the moment, his ability to tell the story is not bad. Although "Brave Man's Game 2" encountered Waterloo last year, at least 60 responsibilities are on the publisher; The most important point is that he is cheaper, and he is so surprised that he can pick up his boss's idea, so he naturally picked him.
What's more, this choice was also recognized by Adrian. In his opinion, Fei Ru did a good job, at least Iron Man as a superhero movie, should have all the factors, and the theme- How ordinary people, or ordinary geniuses, became superheroes-and they were very well grasped. So why not continue? Superheroes are always superheroes, and commercial masterpieces are always commercial masterpieces.
By the way, because without his intervention, Christine? The little girl, Stewart, still appeared in "The Game of the Brave 2", and she occasionally needs one or two works with poor box office.
"Hello Jon, please call me Adrian or Ed." Adrian smiled and shake hands with Fei Ru and the others, and introduced Charlize to them.
"Don't worry, Jon, you are the director of this movie, I listen to you." He then said again, if there were people who had been lucky, thinking that he was just in the wrong position, then after this sentence Basically certain.
"Okay ... okay ... sir ... oh, Ed ..." Fei Ru could not help but grin.
"I'm glad to work with you, Ed." Don, who plays Colonel Rhodes, Stark's friend? Chandell was slightly better, but also with a bitter smile.
The whole crew only had Adrien in this role, and was surprised that Terenz would have been invited? Howard's, he has played roles in many good movies, and nominated for best actor in Oscar, enough fame. But is it worth more than a few top black movie stars, such as Denzel? Washington, Will? Smith, however, is a lot cheaper and is a good candidate.
But Adrian asked Barkley if they asked Howard to increase their pay after this movie, and asked them to pay more than their bottom line? So I chose Tang, which is cheaper and has more room for filming activities? Chandell.
At this point, not only was Fei Ruo and Chandell very depressed, but everyone else was also concealed and rolled his eyes. As one of the Hollywood giants, and also a legend known as a director of miracles, if you cooperate as a director, it is fine, but as an actor ... even if Adrian does nothing, it is enough to stand there. Many people trembled.
"Sorry, guys, I'm a little bit late." Surprised Kevin? Figo along with Ron Universal? Meyer came to the meeting room at this time, and the meeting began.
Generally speaking, there will be no difference in peacetime preparations, that is, under mutual communication, we have a preliminary understanding of each other, and then determine the startup time and so on. It's just that with Adrian, everyone can't really calm down, especially when Figo and Meyer personally acknowledge that the director will play Tony? Stark, the last glimmer of hope is also shattered. How many days are there on April 1st?
Of course, the bigger blow is yet to come. Although Adrian introduced Charlize to everyone, he only gave a brief introduction, and these people didn't read much about business magazines. Therefore, when Figo introduced Charlize's After the identity was announced, a group of people suddenly got messy again. They basically thought that Charlize was Adrian's new lover, and the miracle director planned to use this movie to hold her up, but did not expect that this beautiful and somewhat cold-hearted woman was not only one of the shareholders of VI Network He is also the vice president of ABC.
This is really a hell! One billionaire is not enough, but also a billionaire female rich! What exactly does Surprise and Universal want to do? This is the voice of all the crew members present.
"Ms. Theron has never acted in a movie, but she has produced many shows and TV series. She also has a lot of experience in acting ... She has a wealth of experience, whether it is a secretary assistant or company management and operation, so ... Worried. "In the end Figo had to cough again and again to ease his embarrassment.
But after this sentence, some flexible-minded people almost guessed something, but they were not sure, so Adrian quickly opened his mouth.
"That's right, before she went to ABC as a manager, she worked as a secretary assistant to me for seven to eight years. You know, although I have also made guest appearances in many movies, my acting experience is not sufficient, So I think if someone who is familiar with me but also has little experience in acting, maybe I can get involved as soon as possible, so I thought of Charlie, just because Charlie doesn't have much to deal with at the moment, just Promise the role of teething. "He said directly, quite sounding.
Well, you can basically be sure here. Since this beautiful woman has been a secretary assistant to him for seven or eight years, it is undoubtedly one of his many lover. Then, since the billionaire was invited to play the billionaire and the played the playboy, why not invite the assistant secretary to play the assistant? This is also ... a big deal, if the news spreads, I don't know how many eyeballs it will attract, but what does this treat them as? A companion for the billionaire mini game?
"I know what you're thinking?" Adrian said again, with a slight smile. "Don't worry, since I promised to play this role, I will definitely ask myself with a formal actor, I will never interfere with the shooting, I will try my best to cooperate with and respect your requirements. Even if I have any ideas, I will fully communicate with you, I promise. "
Although this still cannot be completely reassured, as a big man, they all expressed their attitudes like this, and the people present had no other thoughts, and once again stated that it is an honor to cooperate with him.
"Being able to direct the first movie directed by Miracle Director, I believe I can leave my name in the hearts of countless people." Fei Ru, who adjusted his mentality, also made a joke.
"I also believe that I also believe that this will be an excellent commercial film." Adrian did not hesitate to think of it, in order to boost the morale of all people.
Then, he thought about tapping Fei Ru's shoulder: "Yes, Jon, you have to play a role, you started as an actor, didn't you?"
"Well ... yes." Fei Ru was a little embarrassed. He officially became a director after the millennium, and before that he was active in Hollywood as an actor-although he was only a third-line comedian ~ EbookFREE.me ~ So before that he always had a nickname, he would perform better than he would direct the drama, and he would direct less than he would perform the drama. However, once Adrian takes the lead role in "Iron Man" and succeeds, I'm afraid that title will have to be thrown.
"Very good," Adrian continued at this point. "So how about you as Stark's driver and bodyguard? There aren't many plays, but I'm very happy, you're right."
"No problem." Fei Ru returned to normal in just a few seconds, and replied easily, what title is more important than the chance to lead a commercial blockbuster.
You should know that he failed because of "Braves Game 2", and hesitated for a few days to pick up "Iron Man", until Universal repeatedly persuaded and told him that Adrian was very optimistic about him, then made up his mind Although he didn't expect him to appear in person, it seemed like a good thing.
At this point, the big-handed "Iron Man" was completely decided, and then started shooting? RS
