Vol 3 Chapter 245: Take advantage of

"Thank you for your hospitality, Catherine, Mark, this is a rich but not luxurious dinner, and it is unforgettable." Standing at the door, Adrian held Mary and held Jessica to the Alba couple sent to the door. Say so.
"I'm glad ... you can like it, Ed, I'm free ..." A slightly grinning Catherine glanced at her husband, who had a dark face but said nothing after the conversation, "Maybe you can come often with Jesse and Mary . "
"I will." Adrian nodded, and squeezed his daughter's small face. "Hey, Mary, we're leaving. Good night with grandparents."
"Good night, grandpa and grandma." The little boy yawned, his face was tired, and it was almost time to fall asleep at this time.
"I'm leaving my mother, and I'll take Mary back to see you often." Jessica, who was relieved, hugged her mother, and then gave her father a careful look.
Mark squeezed out a smile. He reached out and wanted to touch his daughter's head, but he hesitated and finally just patted her on the shoulder: "Go, my mother and you ... both ... respect ... yours select."
He spoke very hard, paused two or three times, and his face twitched a little, but after all he said it all. Then, after speaking, he was a bit more relaxed. After looking at Adrian, he immediately said, "I have to tell us anything. Your mother and I are your most solid backing. If someone bullies you, I'll show him the color politely. "
"My daddy." Jessica laughed, and Adrian pretended not to see.
Afterwards, they walked all the way to the street, escorted by Joshua, and got into the car already waiting there.
"You won't blame me, Ed?" Joshua grabbed his head and finally asked, still a little embarrassed and ... scared.
"Don't worry, Joshua, I won't do anything to you." Adrian shook his shoulders with a smile. "Although it was a bit irritating at first, it's nice to think about it now, and wait for Mary to grow older. It's not good to introduce her to your parents, and your parents may take time to accept her, and time never These are the main reasons for change. From this point on, you are a lucky star. "
"Really?" Joshua breathed a sigh of relief.
"Really." Having said that, Adrian slaps two slaps on his shoulders, grinning his teeth.
But in this way Joshua became more relaxed. The more Adrian did, the more he said that he didn't account for what he said was a leak and that led to today's awkward family dinner.
"What did you say when my dad went to the room?" After the car started. Jessica asked.
"Oh, some small things, like the insecurities you had when you were a kid, or all the deficiencies in his education." Adrian shrugged. "He didn't want to admit it at first, but under my strong offensive deny."
"You told him all this?" Jessica's pretty face suddenly stepped down, her voice couldn't help sharpening a lot, and Adrian had to quickly put his fingers to his mouth.
"Be quiet. Don't wake Mary." Adrian said, and patted her daughter, who had fallen asleep in her arms. The little guy made a few noises, twisted his head and continued to sleep.
"How can you tell those to my dad." Jessica asked in a low voice.
"Why not?" Adrian asked, "You're already an adult, Jesse, are you still worried that your father will look good when you know this? Well, don't worry about it. I've got your father done He didn't shoot at me. You're right, your dad, though severe, is not irrational. "
He said he grabbed Jessica's shoulder and patted him gently. Jessica sighed softly and leaned her head against his shoulders obediently.
"By the way, I'd like to thank you again," Adrian said suddenly.
"Thank you?" Jessica asked puzzledly.
"Thank you for not telling your father about the conditions I had opened," Adrian kissed her forehead. "Otherwise, it would take a while to explain to your father."
Jessica immediately understood, and immediately gave him a glance without saying anything, but after a long while, she asked in uncertain tone: "Then Ed, if, I mean, if, one day I really want ... want to leave? "
Although she couldn't see her expression with her head down, Adrian could be sure she was nervous in her eyes, so she complained, "Oh, hell, why do women like to ask such inexplicable questions."
"Inexplicable?" Jessica raised her head immediately, and her eyes widened didn't seem very happy, but Adriguez said in a self-conscious way that she didn't see it: "Obviously, if I answer no, you are sure I would say that the has reached the point where he has no credit; but if I answer yes, you will definitely blame me, but you do n’t care about you at all. This question is essentially the same, which one should be rescued first by the mother and girlfriend It ’s no different, it ’s not a good problem, it just stirs up lover's discord.

Listening to his nonchalant words, Jessica couldn't help laughing and stopped for a long time, but she still looked at him with a questioning and hopeful look.
"So," Adrian reached up and raised Jessica's chin, and raised her beautiful face in front of herself. "No matter what is happy or unhappy, you must tell me, because it is only In this way, I can judge, when you say that sentence to me, are you impulsive or really tired, understand? "
Jessica didn't answer, but leaned her head closer to his shoulders.
This is the case for the time being, and it is not entirely due to Adrian himself, even though he did say Mark Alba in silence. This is not difficult. As he told Lili at the beginning, once there is any conflict with who, always remember to occupy the position where you can praise others, maybe there are many other things that can be The place of attack, but as long as you constantly emphasize your unrepudiable side, and then seize the opponent's flaws and chase after them, you can easily overwhelm the opponent in momentum. This really depends on personal ability.
However, this is not the only factor to solve the problem, or even an important factor. In general, the key to the success of the Alba couple lies in Jessica's personal attitude. As Adrian said. Everything he did with Jessica was in compliance with the law, and he could be accused morally, but only morally. Besides, the children are already so old, can they not admit it?
So after the initial impulse, the Alba and the couple made a decision to invite him to be a guest, which also shows that they actually have a plan to compromise. Needless to say, Jessica's attitude. Although fun, but so many years of family education is not without effect, and gave birth to children early, the period when he would not be a mother at first, Adrian took Mary. Coupled with the implied conditions he gave during the first pregnancy, various factors were brought together, and even if Jessica had any ideas, they would automatically cancel them soon.
Naturally, the Alba couple could not get support on the daughter's side, and then Joshua also stood on the side of Adrian-for Jessica's sake, Adrian gave Joshua a lot of opportunity. In addition to the supporting role in "The Last Angel". He has also played a number of important dramas in recent years, such as "" or "24" as an important supporting role, and now he can be considered a second-line actor.
So last year, Adrian gave him a very important role, the thunderbolt in "Fantastic Four". That's right, I acted in the movie with my sister as a real brother. Paramount also agreed to this. Joshua and Jessica are indeed very similar, and they are handsome and handsome. Even the eyebrows seemed strange, so Adrian had somebody deliberately repack him. The effect is pretty good.
In short, with their sisters and brothers standing on their own side, plus lovely Mary and their own lip service, Adrian successfully managed the Alba couple. One of his favorite tricks is to borrow strength. A person's ability is always limited. Even if he can predict the future, it is impossible to fight against the entire society.
The so-called historical trend is immense, and those who go with it and those who go against it may not be suitable here, but it is enough to explain some problems. Therefore, if you want to achieve your purpose, and the people and affairs involved are very extensive, creating and using momentum is the only choice. For example, in the current promotion of "The Lord of the Rings", in addition to smashing heavy money for publicity and public relations, many book fans and film critics think that the final song is eligible for a little goldman, and Adrian should also become the most Best director.
In addition, the film school discriminates against non-realistic works and needs to make changes. Adrian has been nominated for the third time in the trilogy, and has been nominated countless times before. The last award was almost as fast as now. Ten years on, everything is pushing "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" and Adrian to his throne. All he has to do is guide and conform to this trend, even if some people object.
Similarly, the best actress is also the same. It is interesting to say that Kate and Sophie are both famous for "Warm Light" and "Life of the Rose", but at the beginning of the year's major awards, they did not have any awards. Neither the Actors Guild Awards, Directors Guild Awards, or the Film Critics Association Awards are available, let alone the Golden Globe Awards, so many people are not very optimistic about them.
"Some people have done an analysis of past Academy Awards. Native American actors are far more likely to win performance awards than actors from other places. Obviously, Oscar has always been only an American game, so the European actors on this year's nomination list. Don't worry too much about it. "According to British newspapers, of course, don't forget to ridicule Oscar.
Unfortunately, this is a superficial phenomenon, Kate will not say it. Adrian has no plans to let her climb to the top now. Since she has to be the best actress without any dispute, it means that she still has a long way to go. . As for Sophie, he was preparing for the day from the beginning, not to mention Weinstein's help.
One of the biggest factors is that Fahrenheit 911 won the golden palm. After the Cannes Film Festival in May, the French quite praised it and praised it as a conscience. After half a year of fermentation, it has gradually faded, but with the official release of the documentary in the United States, plus Michael Moore made it clear that this documentary was produced for the general election at the end of this year, as long as one less person voted for the Bush administration. It's a result, so the French are excited again, and by the way, they can ignore Sophie who has starred in "Life of the Rose".
Even after "Fahrenheit 911" failed to qualify for the Oscar for best documentary, French critics criticized it. Think about how dissatisfied the film school will be. Well, that's it. It's time to respond well to this bunch of idiots like Gaul, so what is the best way? Maybe someone can't find a way, but don't worry, Weinstein will tell them.
This alone is not enough. So Adrian also prepares something else, such as the short movie "Supermarket Sleepless". When he started his East Asian trip last year, Sophie took this short film to run around various film festivals, although they are some less well-known films-at most they are as famous as the Toronto Film Festival, and more like the three major film festivals It can't be compared-but also got some good reviews. The slightly conscious style, but not particularly obvious style, has attracted some people's attention.
The only critics criticized was that Kayden Cross was a bit too pretty. After Sophie reversed the character's gender, although she better grasped the entire short film and emphasized the style of the movie, she also let Kayden Looks like a vase. Kaydon is a bit acting, but it's still very immature, if it's a normal movie. She might play a little bit. However, the starring role in this short film, coupled with Sophie's extraordinary performance, will inevitably be criticized.
However, despite this, it does not prevent the short film "Super Sleepless Night" from being selected as the best Oscar short film, of course. Adrian pushed back. So, on the 76th Oscar nomination list. In addition to Sophie's nomination for Best Actress, she also has a nomination for Best Short Film. This is also the first time in Oscar's film history. I can imagine how amazing it will be.
With these, coupled with the constant nominations of the past few years, as well as the publicity and public relations that have been secretly used by all means, just like "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King", various factors have come together to form a trend. Throne behind the shadows.
So Adrian likes to borrow, and his plan to ascend the throne for himself is to maximize this borrowing. Although it takes long-term planning to do this, it is not difficult for him, is it? Of course, if there is no long-term planning, such a success rate will not be high, such as--
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry you didn't get a golden gramophone, Wei Niu," Adrian had to raise her hands to say so in the face of Ai Weier, sulking.
Grammy will always be held before the Oscars, and this year is no exception. Oscars are set to be on the last day of February. Then Grammy is 21 days ahead of schedule and will be held on February 8. Universal Music's most popular female singers have all been shortlisted, but the awards are still the same. Christina and Beyonce have each won, but Britney and Avril have failed.
Britney doesn't matter. Adrian built her momentum for the first time and won the best album award with the best-selling female singer in the world. Even though it is still very uncomfortable than Christina, it is not that bad. Twice at a time. However, Ai Weier has not gained anything in Grammy so far, and only a few nominations were easily obtained. Naturally, she was very depressed.
So, when Adrian came to see them, but teased a few words, the girl immediately turned black, seeing that, he had to apologize before saying.
"Sorry, Ed, I'm a little emotional," Avril soon realized that she was in a bad state, and apologized after sighing. "But ... sitting there watching other people happily come on stage to receive awards and speeches. The original excitement slowly cooled down with the passage of time ... I have experienced this once last year and again this year, really ... very, very bad. "
"I understand, Wei Niu." Adrian hugged her with her arms open. "Don't take it to heart. This is the case with the Academy of Recording and Science. The more popular a singer is, the more she ignores it, as if this would make Grammy It ’s ridiculous not to be stereotypical. In this case, you need to be calm and good works. Normalness can make you face honor and music better, and good works can let recording and science learn how to look at you. , Without their approval, you are still the most popular rock witch. "
He spoke well, but in exchange for Avril's white eyes: "Come on, Ed, these are words that often hang around your mouth ~ EbookFREE.me ~ But the problem is, knowing is the same thing , To do it is another matter. "
"So just come a few more times and you'll know what to do." A cheerful voice came from behind, and a body embraced her from behind. "Hi, Ivy."
"Boob?" Avril turned her head in shock, then looked at the girl in annoyance, and greeted Christina, who was entering the lounge.
"I know, you must be one step ahead of us, you are always like this." Britney said with a smile, "Maybe I should learn from you, how can I fly to the host as soon as possible,"
Britney has become accustomed to calling Adrian the host in front of more and more people, of course, people who are very familiar with each other. Similarly, Avril rolled her eyes because of this.
"You have to learn habits, Ivy," Britney said indifferently. "Like me, I never get certainty, and then the host gives me a reward."
After that, she laughed and held Adrian's arm, and her intimate attachment made Avril roll her eyes again and immediately went out: "Well, talk slowly, I have something to do." to be continued..)
