Vol 2 Chapter 141: Finally going to release


Chapter 141 is finally about to be released
A few days later, Adrian returned to Los Angeles again. Although there was no exact news from Kubrick, but it should be the default. Naturally, the long-awaited publicity work began.
Warner's action was very fast. By the end of January, "Broad Eyes" had passed the review of the paa. Unsurprisingly, it was rated as r-level. To be honest, with the big party in the middle, if you change to Bosworth, or Miramax, and the new line to send a rating, you must be rated as -17, maybe it may be, In that case, it can only be shown in a few designated theaters, whether it is word of mouth or box office.
But who gives Warner, one of the top seven movie companies, a place in PAA? Although ua took a lot of effort, it was finally set at r level. This is why Adrian has always insisted on finding a way to obtain overseas exercise. With overseas exercise, he is eligible to enter PAA to fight for his own interests. This is not easy. DreamWorks has n’t had it for several years. Can go in, but he now has a better plan, as long as funding is available this year should not be a problem.
Soon, the teaser trailer of "Open Your Eyes Wide Opening" began to air, and various promotional advertisements began to appear in 6 major media. Suddenly, after the Christmas-New Year period, the entertainment circle that gradually began to restore peace was put in. Blockbuster.
Earlier, when the miracle director was likely to take over the new work of the legendary director, the media took great interest and tried every means to dig out some valuable news from it. When Adrian filmed the location in New York, he also had Many reporters attempted to enter the studio and took a few blurry photos. However, because Adrian guarded against death at the outset and warned everyone severely that if someone disclosed the news to the outside world, he would not only be fired but also prosecuted. Therefore, the specific shooting of the movie is still unknown and can only be based on The original novel to guess.
As a result, without new news, the media ’s attention has dropped a lot, but this does not mean that they have really given up on the search for "Open Eyes and Rings", starting from the official promotion of Warner , A variety of comments such as popping up after the rain, you can know one or two. In particular, the news that "Kubrick originally requested that if the film directed by Adrian does not meet his requirements, this film must not be carried out through any channel" was deliberately removed, and the media were more excited, which meant that It goes without saying.
"If the rumor is true, it means that Adrian's Eyes Wide Open is the same as Kubrick's, because everyone knows how harsh Kubrick treats his work." "Seattle A journalist wrote this.
"From Kubrick's usual style, it is indeed possible, but I don't think Adrian can have such a fancy director level as Kubrick, although he also has good works." Some people also do so. Means.
Even a fairly well-known film critic named Marshall Maggie wrote sharply: "It is more likely that Warner and Adrian wanted to use this method to create an accompli, so that Let Kubrick yield, after all, propaganda and behavior are two different things. Even if there is a contract signed, it is not difficult to find out what is missing. Neither Warner nor Adrian can give up this opportunity to earn word of mouth. "
Some of Kubrick's diehard movie mí even said that he would never go to watch the movie after it was released: "He would never make a Kubrick-style movie"
Even when Tom Cruise was in a talk show for "Mr. Sweetheart" to hit the Oscars, he was all about Adrian directing "Open Eyes".
"It is undeniable that he is a director, and he is quite discerning. In fact, my corner in" Mr. Sweetheart "was recommended by him. I don't comment on the two directors. Lee has met a few times, and of course, I like the films he directed. But I have done my best to play this corner. I also think that I did a good job. Cruz responded so.
A good answer, not only avoiding the main question, but also holding both directors, and by the way also promoted himself, we can see that his agent Pat Kingsley communicated well with the TV station. The reason why this is said is because Cruise did not look good at the audition held in Warner.
This is naturally because of those three paragraphs. Cruz did not see who the naval officer was. Adrian only edited a bit of them. The three paragraphs added up in just over ten seconds, and the navy uniform did not take off. Not to mention the real sword in the actual shooting. In addition, the selected angle is also in place, and there is no face of the naval officer, and it is slightly processed during post-production, unless it is very familiar with his body like Charlize, can tell the size below and jīng It is true that the person with the three digits after the decimal point can see who is from the back and the figure.
But Nicole is not the same. Whether it is lying down in the heat and falling down, or crawling on the other side while holding his back, he is extremely engaged, as if he is not acting, even if it only has more than ten seconds in total. time. If the previous undress was all at home and still in front of Cruise, he can accept it, then the thorn in this shot is slightly larger.
Coupled with the gossip tabloids taking Nicole's all appearances, and the hype of the "stupid party party" mentioned earlier, and intentionally or unintentionally linking the two. In Tom Cruise's case, I heard that if you are in a good mood, you will see a ghost, and it is impossible to say those words. This is undoubtedly the credit of Kingsley. Brokers really matter.
Faced with these controversial arguments, what is Adrian doing?
"How about this contract, Mr. Yuan?" Adrian looked at the old man with a smile.
The other party hesitated, and after listening to the translation, talked to his lawyer a a few words, and then carefully asked: "I have no opinion, but Mr. Adrian, you don't think this contract is too much. Is it good? "
"It's very simple." I already expected the other party's reaction. In addition, if Cantonese spoke slowly, I could still guess what it meant, so I couldn't translate it, and Adrian laughed. "Mr. Yuan is The Chinese, of course, should know the allusion that "thousands of gold buy horse bones."
The phrase "thousands of gold buy horse bones" is spoken in Chinese, and the words are rounded, Yuan Heping's eyes suddenly glared: "Do you speak Mandarin?"
Then he bowed his head and muttered something. It seemed to be complaining. The voice was very low and it was Cantonese. Adrian did not hear it clearly, but it seemed to mention the name of Wu Baige.
But this was not important, so he smiled again immediately: "Basic a stream should be okay-don't talk about this first, if Mr. Yuan is willing, I can introduce you a few good agents and let them do it for you Take care of your business in Hollywood, rest assured, they are all very honest people. "
After he understood, hesitant spirit of Yuan Heping's face became stronger.
"I know you definitely don't understand why. It's simple. I'm optimistic about your prospects, or the prospects of motion guidance." Adrian did not conceal in the slightest. "That's why I prepared such a contract, and you were joking. For $ 880,000, and I agreed without hesitation. "
When referring to the salary of $ 880,000, Yuan Heping blushed, and seemed a little embarrassed and unhappy. Although he calmed down immediately, I'm afraid he must complain in his heart, "This ghost guy speaks Mandarin well, but I don't know how to turn it around What do you mean? " Adrian certainly wouldn't understand what to do to be tactful, joking, these things are engraved in the spirit hún-even if it is only two-thirds-but it is not necessary now.
"I know about action movies in Hong Kong. Movie stars who are famous for this, such as Jack Cheng, have their own" Martial Arts "team-is this the word, right? So action directors like you are very common in Hong Kong." Adrian continued, "But it's different here. I believe that after the release of these two movies, Hollywood is bound to set off a wind of oriental kung fu. The" knights "in Hong Kong belong to the people's organization. Please come, so as a representative of Hollywood, you must be the object of cooperation among various film companies. "
After speaking in a few words, Yuan Heping, his translators and lawyers were big-eyed and small-eyed, so straightforward words do not need to explain, but the pie falling from the sky is really unthinkable.
"What's so good for you?" He couldn't help asking.
"It's very simple. If I need to make Oriental Kung Fu-style action movies in the future, I need your priority." Adrian spread his hands.
"You're not afraid that I promised it, then ... but the real lion opened his mouth?" Yuan Heping couldn't help asking.
Adrian smiled suddenly: "Isn't the Chinese want to pay attention to the faith? If I can't exchange my friendship and commitment with such frankness, then let me look away."
"Admiring" Yuan Heping took a deep breath and accidentally made a fist-in-arm gesture. "That's the case."
In fact, both of them knew that if that kind of thing happened, as long as Adrian maintained his strength in Hollywood, it would not be difficult for them to drive Yuan Heping out of it. Although Kung Fu movies have a large market in North America , But after all it is not mainstream. Since cooperation is beneficial, and Adrian can be considered a "corporate sage," Yuan Heping naturally knows what to choose.
After discussing this and sending Yuan Heping away, Adrian immediately called Michael Ovits. Although he only mentioned a few words, he will know what to do after the details are faxed. To be honest, Ovits does have a set of brokerage companies. After taking office, he radically reformed the company and renewed the company in just a few weeks.
In addition to Tom Hanks, many front-line actors have also been brought under the banner. If it wasn't for some problems, Dustin Huffman might come over. It is important to know that Aowitz and Huffman have a close relationship. The first client he won when he was in CAA was Huffman.
"I can do anything for you, even kill you." He said so when he met for the first time, and immediately won the favor of Huffman.
Although this time he failed to pull in because of an accident, Adrian didn't care, and still fully supported him with Claude. Although he couldn't compare with several large brokerage companies, he was basically in the top ranks of the second line. . So even knowing the extravagance of Owitz, the two people in charge of the company didn't take it to heart. How much ability can naturally enjoy the benefits.
Of course, there are some things to be aware of. Although there is no legal problem with the brokerage company, it is not a good thing to be caught and talked about. Owitz left Disney and switched to c-broker company last year. It was also quite noticeable. Ordinary people may not know the tricky ones. Several tycoon-level characters still smelled something. Eisner was naturally more unhappy. In order to get Owitz away from Disney, he spent tens of millions.
There are still a lot of things to deal with, such as investing in "Perak" or preparing to officially launch "Matrix" recently, but before that he picked up the phone and called.
"Hey baby, how have you been lately? Yes, I know, but ... well, then it's always okay to use the word 'darling'? Oh, it's nothing, I just want to call you right away It's almost Valentine's Day, I hope you will like my gift ... Of course it is express delivery, I don't mind sending it in person but ... Hehe ... I do have that plan, but you know, if I hold a guitar If you sing outside your house, you will probably get an o.35 inch bullet at most, but if you want to be like Christmas days, will you have lost your freshness? I wo n’t tell you. You'll know then ... "
What makes Adrian chat so happy is naturally Lolita in New York. For various reasons, although the two often meet, they still use telephones and letters to communicate most of the time. Oh, there are more now Email, but Natalie seems to like it that way.
"Because the distance produces beauty, if you get along too long and you lose mystery, I don't like you, what do you do?" Said the little Natalie, who was lying on his ng chamber after jī's love.
Of course, there are other reasons besides, although Natalie didn't say, Adrian could guess some. In any case, she was born into a strictly educated and conservative Jewish family. Although she had planted the seeds of rebellion early in her heart because of her precocity, plus ambition and Adrian, etc., she gave birth to him. Relationship, but it does not mean that Natalie can face herself without any shame, no matter how smart she is now, she is still essentially a nv.
In addition, she took the initiative to overthrow Adrian. Even now, she won't get much praise in the eyes of others, so she will inevitably have a small but deep-rooted guilt. Although she was very happy and sweet beside Adrian, and his intimateness drowned her in the indescribable joy, she would inevitably feel troubled when she was awake, let alone ...
So far apart, I usually chat on the phone, discuss various issues on the letter, email, and occasionally get together. How could Adrian refuse, for Tali, who was out of push, he has more patience and tolerance, in addition to trying to make her happy, such as Christmas mentioned on the phone before Things during.
Although in New York, he mainly brought Kate and Lily to visit his uncle, he came to Long Island on the night of Christmas the next day, stood under the big tree opposite Natalie's house, and looked at her room. Lights her up. The Jews just do n’t celebrate Christmas. The vacation should not be left for one day, so Natalie, who was at home, came to the window as soon as she received the phone call. The two were so far apart from each other on the street, staring at each other While chatting over the phone, Adrian also read her a short poem he wrote.
"You're like a kid in love." Natalie teased him so much later, but she was still very happy in her heart. Is there any young nv who doesn't like the feeling of being held in the palm of his hand?
Well, this time, naturally it ’s chocolate that I made by myself. What Valentine ’s day and chocolate are not given? Anyway, it is not named, and it doesn't matter if Natalie's parents send it to him.
"The information you want, Ed." Charlize then came in with two folders.
"Thank you, Charlie." Adrian took a few glances at once, and it was about "The Moment of Killing", "Double yīmou" and "Man in Black".
These three films are not like the three in "The Prison in the Air", and are completely produced by the media company's film company ~ EbookFREE.me ~ but for the sharing principle a to other companies, the idea is to return to Sony , So Colombia is responsible for it; and "Man in Black" gave it to Colombia after thinking about it for a long time, but for some considerations, it also pulled DreamWorks and kicked a in it. "Moment of Killing" was originally intended for Universal , But in the end it went to Fox.
Although the production rights are out, Adrian is still very concerned about the specific process. After all, "Killing Time" was prepared for Kate, and Monica starred in the supporting role of "nv" in "Man in Black" and then in "Double "Yīn Mou" starred in the protagonist of nv.
Seeing that he had nothing to do with a, Charlize turned and walked out.
"Charlie." Adrian called her, with a smile.
After confirming in London that day that he was in the filming and had a real gun with Nicole, Charlize's tone became more and more official.
"What's wrong?" Charlize asked indifferently, as if his expression didn't exist.
"The Eyes Open" will be released after Valentine's Day. Would you like to join me? "Adrian asked with a smile. fa.
