Vol 2 Chapter 8: 1 talk

"Can ... explain?" Rachel heard a little confused.
"You are charming, Rachel," Adrian said in a sincere tone, his eyes were very clear. "You have a totally different temperament from other actresses, an indescribable volume of books, which makes you different. This kind of charm. This is both a good thing and a bad thing. The good thing is that you are very suitable for those women with strong temperament, such as female scholars or female researchers. The bad thing is that you will be limited to this role when it is difficult to break through. In short, the road will be very narrow. "
"This should only be your inference, right?" Rachel asked with an eyebrow. Of course she would not agree with Adrian's view, but it was not easy to refute directly, so she had to ask like this.
"Yes, that's why I regret that if you are willing to play that role, you may be able to hone your acting skills and make your play wider." Adrian sighed. "The films you are filming now and Not much, it's still very plastic. "
The surprised Rachel was inexplicably slightly moved, but at the same time, she was a little vigilant and pursed her lips without answering. Adrian said nothing more, just watching her seem to have something interesting.
After a while, Rachel, who felt a little uncomfortable, wanted to remind him with a light cough, and suddenly heard Adrian say something like a nightmare: "If it was Anthony Minghella to direct ..."
Although the voice was very quiet, Rachel with his ears heard it, his heartbeat was a little faster. Although she hasn't been to Hollywood for a long time, she knows more about Adrian and naturally knows what it means.
"What are you talking about?" Rachel brushed his head casually, and asked casually.
"Oh, no, it's nothing." Adrian, who came back to him, smiled, drinking black tea with his head down.
Rachel was stunned. Although she wanted to say something, she just sighed in her heart for a moment, and a feeling of loss sprang up. It doesn't matter, he must have other considerations. Rachel said to himself comfortably, and did not let the feeling of loss manifest itself. She was completely unaware that her emotions had been completely mastered by the other party.
"Let ’s try a character," Adrian suddenly slaps. "It's just a supporting role that doesn't weigh too much, and it's a commercial movie."
After a pause he added another sentence: "Nevertheless, I still hope you can give it your all, okay?"
Rachel's breathing became slightly quicker, and of course she couldn't hear the implicit meaning because of her cleverness. The difference in mentality made her unable to speak for a while, and she only realized herself after half a moment of recovery. Adrian's hand was being held, and he nodded earnestly, "I will."

From time to time, there was a crackling sound on the large platform, and Claude fell to the ground embarrassingly, holding the arm of the arm guard in front of him, and his rain-like fists kept falling on it.
"Look at you, Crow. I can't tell whether Thomas is your sparring or you are Thomas' sparring." Standing under the ring, Adrielle in shorts with a slender upper body and white towel on his shoulders An Yan said with a smile. WWw.YZUU point m
"Easy to say ... why don't you try it out" Crowd, who was so suppressed that he couldn't fight back, growled.
After more than ten minutes, he was suppressed on the ground and became Adrian, and Claude stood laughing under the ring.
"Hey man, stand up and fight back, always lying on the ground can only be beaten passively." Claude said leisurely while drinking water, and in exchange for Adrian roared: "Shut me up, Crow . "
"Where did you find this guy?" Adrian asked his gang of death when he came down from the ring. He gasped and shook his numb arms. Although he had already done enough protection, he did There are still some bruises under the punch. However, this guy's strength and skills are very good, and his vision is accurate, and he will not defeat the key, so the sturdy body is very flexible, it is really hard to come by, but the disadvantage is that he is not good at speaking, and never said it from beginning to end Three sentences.
"Knowing how good he is?" Although he handed in the towel, Crowder still made fun of him.
"It's really good, but don't forget, I've been holding on for much longer than you, and because of the rules I can't use my legs, otherwise it won't be necessarily who wins." Adrian took the towel and wiped his face .
"Come on, Ed, this isn't free fighting." Claude shook his head. "Don't you dare to lose even now? This is not a big deal."
"Hey, I didn't give up, just because you think so, and by the way you can cover the fact that you were knocked down twice." Adrian gave him a elbow with a smile. "Well, go to the shower, don't I'll be beaten again. "
Turning on the spray head, the water with the right temperature immediately burst into the body, Adrian stretched his arms and exhaled a long breath. Although I just played a few games on the training platform, my body didn't have any strain or sprain. It was a little bit worse, but this was normal.
Adrian regularly exercises, and is guided by professional nutritionists and fitness coaches. His body shape is quite good. The strong chest and abs muscles are masculine, which complements the height of 6 inches. The women who had with him, whether Monica, Julia or Drew or Cameron, said that his figure was very sexy. The private doctor also said that his body is much better than ordinary people, as the saying goes "robust like a bull". But these just let him spread evenly, and it must be a lot worse than someone like Thomas who exercises exclusively for boxing.
"What do you think, to those three teams." Crowder, wrapped around his towel, walked out of the other side.
"My opinion? Of course it's sold, do you want to keep it?" Adrian shrugged.
"I think so too, but I'm afraid Ted won't agree. This is his hard work after all, and the base camp of TBs is in Atlanta." Claude said in his clothes.
There are many things that TBs belong to. In addition to net and new lines, there are many other things, such as two or three film production companies, and Claude is planning to merge them. Then there are three teams, the Atlanta Hawks, one of the 7 oldest NBA-qualified teams, the Atlanta Warriors who have won the baseball world championships, and the Atlanta Flames, which performed mediocrely in the hockey league.
This is not surprising. Large group companies will have more or less one or two teams, some because of the boss's hobby, and some for the company's exhibition. After all, the major leagues of major ball sports-nFL, mLB and nBa Or nhL, has a wide range of influence in the United States. It's just that the three teams owned by TBs have some value in addition to the older NBA Hawks. The remaining two are almost dispensable, plus they are in Atlanta, whether Adrian or Crowe. Germany, have no interest in running a business.
"Do we need to consider Ted's opinion?" Adrian asked back.
"At least at this stage must be considered." Crowder sighed.
"Well, then the Eagles can keep it, but the two teams outside the two must sell," Adrian said after thinking about it, "tell Ted, we will be better in the future."
"Why, you already have a goal?" Claude looked interested.
"Our home base is Los Angeles, and naturally we need to consider the Los Angeles team." Adrian spread his hands.
"Is it? The Clippers or the Lakers? If it's the latter, I'm afraid Jerry Bass won't sell it." Claude thought.
"Not now," Adrian shook his head. "Our goal now is to seize every opportunity to expand and gather resources to ensure the company's show is smooth-that's why I think we should sell those three teams."
There are major and occasional issues. It is the most important thing to build your own media empire. It is the right way to wait until this goal is almost completed. Jerry Bath doesn't sell? Will he really not sell it if he loses a lot of money? Besides, here in the United States, nFL is the most popular sport.
"By the way, there's some bad news." Crowder, already in pants and shirt, changed the subject.
"Speak to hear." Adrian, who was also compassionate, glanced at him.
"Whether it was Warner, it was a direct rejection." Claude shrugged with regret.
"Really?" Adrian frowned, and Warner's refusal was expected, but it was unexpected that it was so straightforward. It was originally thought that it would become its subsidiary after the merger of Time and Warner, and it has not fully developed yet. It should speak well. Now it seems that it was wrong.
"What's your opinion?" Adrian asked Claude.
"My opinion?" Claude smiled. "Remember, TBs also owns homes and similar paid cable TVs, but generally sports programs, and TV shows are bought from other TV stations."
"You mean TnT?" Adrian recalled. "I'm afraid it's inappropriate. You also said that they are mainly sports events. This is very different from making TV movies and TV shows."
"Then we will reorganize it according to the model, just like the brokerage company is reorganized according to the CAA model." Crowd said immediately, "I can roughly guess why you need it, Ed, but I think as long as TnT reorganized smoothly, and the same effect can be achieved. "
Adrian stopped his work and sat on the bench for a moment of contemplation before nodding his head: "Well, you can try."
If TnT can be reorganized according to the mode, it will be the best thing. His mastery is nothing more than the concept of several high-quality TV series. As long as it is copied as far as possible, that TV station will be fine.
"Also, there are some things about Marvel Comics."
"Oh, don't tell me this is also in trouble, Crow."
"Certainly not," Claude Haha laughed. "This time is good news. It's easy to acquire Marvel Comics, but we can wait again, according to their current distress situation, another half a year to a year. Time will be easier. "
"It sounds good," Adrian smiled. "Okay, you can just take care of it. Anyway, you are responsible for it, as long as ... don't make any mistakes."
The two got dressed and walked out of the fitness room and came to the garden. The maid had prepared afternoon tea.
"What happened to Milan Max?" Adrian asked after taking a sip of coffee.
"Two companies spared no effort to fight, and the Weinstein brothers were naturally happy to watch the movie," Claude shrugged. "But there are signs of slackness on Disney's side."
"Is there a sign of slackening?" Adrian raised an eyebrow. "Michael Eisner so easily gives up something that is about to get out of his mouth? It's not like his style. Or is it just the smoke from Disney? "
"The probability of smoke is about o% to%. Michael Eisner's energy seems to focus on other things, and, you know, at the beginning of this month, his deputy Frank Wells crashed. "Dead," Claude said analytically. "So it's possible to give up Miramax."
Adrian thought about it, it was indeed possible. He has already divided a lot of things that originally belonged to Miramax. Correspondingly, in the eyes of other companies, its value has also been reduced a lot. In addition, Disney talked about this year from last year, and it was so big. It is also expected that Eisner gave up Miramax.
"But I have an idea," Crowd said at the same time. "A bit bold and crazy idea."
"Really? Speak. Listen." Adrian suddenly became interested, so that Claude could say so solemnly, and also used the words "bold" and "crazy", which would surely surprise him. .
However, to his disappointment, Claude shook his head: "No, no, this idea is not mature now, I need more information and intelligence, and ... I still need to observe something."
"So mysterious, that must be important." Adrian asked tentatively, but Claude just smiled and said no more. In this case, he will no longer question, and Claude will inform him if he wants to act anyway.
The two then talked about other topics, such as merging the production companies under TBs to the new line or Bosworth. Claude wants to merge into the new line to divide the remaining equity of the new line president Robert Shea. The new line still retains independent management rights after being acquired by TBs, but the new line's current reputation is not as good as Miramax It is sufficient for the media company to have an independent movie company.
However, Adrian expressed his objection after careful consideration. First, the production companies of TBs are not large, and they may not be thinner even if they are merged with the new line. Second, the signage originally belonged to the new line. The horror film "Scream of Shock" has been sold to Universal in advance by Adrian, and its first -rated production "The Seven Deadly Sins" has also been drummed up, so it has been a second-line movie for a long time. Companies, even if something goes wrong, it won't be too serious.
In addition, Robert Shea is also a very capable person, and it is also good to be able to catch it. And, if Adrian's vision is successful, it will be easier to thin out his equity.
After a rather pleasant afternoon at Claude's house, after exchanging opinions on these work matters, Adrian stayed almost in Los Angeles. David Finch didn't have much opinion on Gwennis's actress in the actress, and even praised a few words, but to wait for some time to start the filming, the preliminary preparations were not so easy to complete. Also preparing is "Little Woman", which is slightly faster, after all, Adrian had already set the production schedule for this movie last year.
Also, the role for Rachel Weisz is Sarah Davis from the upcoming "Spy and Spy", the female agent who was let by Renault outside the Prague embassy. Although the film production rights were given to Cruz's production company, how could there be a free lunch? In a series of things such as the selection of actors, Bosworth has the main say. Tom Cruise did not say anything. Although he is not very smart, he also knows the rules.
Besides, the entire team is basically the original team, except his wife Nicole Kidman as Claire Phelps, Rachel Weisz as Sarah Davis, and Anthony Hopkins as the villain. ss Jim Phelps-God knows how the head of the company that used to be the producer persuaded the old man, and Adrian knew it and could make a mistake for a long time. In short, Cruise is more satisfied with such a team and naturally will not say much.
The main reason for this arrangement of Rachel ~ EbookFREE.me ~ is because there is no better role yet. Although Adrian finally thought of two suitable scripts, they belonged to something that didn't even have the outline, and it would be impossible to shoot at one-and-a-half time, so I simply left it here with this character.
Rachel and Gwyneth were different women who grew up in Hollywood. She graduated from Cambridge and was very clever and arrogant. This can be seen from now on when he came to him. So trying to get her completely in hand was not an easy task, nor was it possible to seduce Gwennis. But as long as she's at the Hollywood show, she can't escape Adrian's palm. Smart women always think about a lot of things, but they think more easily and get confused, and ...
After leaving from Claude, Adrian drove to Julia's secret cottage, and after spending a good night with her, she flew back to Alabama the next day on a leased private jet. Although there are still some things that have not been dealt with in Los Angeles, such as seeing the attractive goblin under the preparatory work of Little Women, or seeing how Blanchett is doing, etc. The shooting of "is also very important.
But that ’s okay. I ’m going back to Los Angeles after the shooting. I ’ll talk about it later, and I ’ve never lost contact with them anyway.
