Vol 3 Chapter 249: Next

At the Academy Awards, there is one object that will always be appreciated by the winners: the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. They created the award, they run it, they decide who gets the award, so every winner must thank them, it is a symbol of power.
But at the 73rd Academy Awards, it seems that someone has the tendency to share this kind of power of gratitude with them. It sounds a bit ridiculous. The film school is a group. How can a person stand by the group? Unfortunately, this is indeed true. A few years ago, Al Pacino thanked Adrian when he got the best actor as he wished, but at that time people hadn't noticed that even after a few years, he continued to hold the film. Someone put a series of haloes on his head, such as the director of miracles, the writer of ace, and the producer of gold medals. But until it suddenly broke out today, people were surprised to find that he already has in several major industries of the film industry Got considerable influence!
Of course, as a single person, it is certainly not comparable to the film school, but it is possible to thank the recipients of several important awards so openly, and also at the same Oscar awards ceremony, so many people except Adrian for so many years . Although he only appeared on stage as the filmmaker when the best film was finally awarded, his name was endless throughout the awards ceremony, and the audience may not know that "he is not in rivers and lakes, rivers and lakes have his legend" A Chinese saying, but they have definitely seen a movie, Francis Coppola's top work: The Godfather!
"So what?" Adrian looked at Claude with a grin and took the glass from the bartender. "Everything I do is within the rules. No one has set the chairman of the board of the media group. I ca n’t be a director or a producer, and no one has stipulated that a director or a producer cannot use all the power to promote and publicize for myself. I am a very compliant person, as long as others also follow the rules. "
"Yeah. You are a rare genius." Claude laughed. "No one can be like you. You have a large media group and you can make great movies."
That's right, there are many Hollywood producers who are good at winning PR awards, such as the Weinstein brothers under the media. Similarly, the people who can make good movies and are always shortlisted for Oscar are related to the big directors of large movie companies with their own. Spielberg is an example. But Weinstein couldn't make a movie like Spielberg anyway, and Spielberg couldn't make public relations and publicity as flexible and responsive as Weinstein, just like fish and bear's paw. You cannot have both.
But Adrian unifies the two. Not only does he have the world's largest media group, he has huge propaganda machines, but he is also good at discovering the strengths of screenwriters, actors, directors and even producers and guiding them to careers Gao Feng, while also directing and producing high-quality works that meet the Oscar appetite, is the most important. Even if the guests who attended the Oscar tonight thanked Adrian to so many people, they might be able to attack " "Never Compromise" or Julia or Nicole's shortcomings, but I dare not say that they are not eligible for Oscars.
The quality of the film is there, and no one can deny it, unless you open your eyes and talk nonsense. But then it wasn't just Adrian who offended. Because of this, Adrian did not worry too much about the reaction of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. After all, this is a loose group with thousands of members. Even himself is one of the members. Many of them have interests with him. It is not difficult to differentiate them with a lot of resources-as long as they do not cross the bottom line.
Adrian has always been good at stopping a little in front of the bottom line, and as he said to Claude, he is a very disciplined man. As long as others follow the rules. As long as he controls it properly, even if someone wants to lift the table, he may not be able to lift it.
"Hello, Mr. Cowell, I was just listening to some people discussing you, but I didn't expect to meet you here." A voice passed into Adrian's ear at this moment.
It was a woman in her thirties. She sat down and asked the bartender for a drink before turning her head to say hello to Adrian. Well, it was much better than those who wanted to talk.
"Hello, Miss Lane, I didn't expect to see you here, you are still so beautiful." Adrian nodded politely.
Diane Lane, a female celebrity marked by youth in the 1980s with Brooke Young and Jennifer Connelly, is also one of the recognized vases. Youth idols can never escape this label. Today, Brooke Little Silk is married and divorced. The scenery is long gone. Jennifer Connelly has switched to a TV series because of Adrian. Two films should have made her come back. "Beautiful Mind" gave Gwennis, and "Requiem for Dream" did not appear at all-Adrian hated this cruel and cruel film, except for the soundtrack, in short, that is This kind of typical deliberately doing something unusual to others to attract attention.
This is a digression. Although Diane Lane is still active in the movie industry and also a party of Oscar Nights in Risotto, but she ca n’t take off the hat of the vase, so what is she talking to Adrian? it goes without saying. Of course, as a woman who has been in this circle for more than 20 years, she knows how to do it best. After a few words with Adrian, she politely quits. No.
"A very charming woman, and very glamorous, much better than those who like to chatter." Claude praised beside him.
From the beginning of the Vanity Fair party, there have been people coming to talk to and admire Adrian, men and women, young and old, actor producers, magazine editors, etc., even if they were still sacred a few minutes ago The auditorium complained why so many people were thanking him. Humans are animals of interest, so Adrian doesn't have to worry about what these things will have today.
"Want to talk to her in private?" Adrian asked with a smile, "while you're free now."
"Oh, hell, don't mention that, okay?" Crowder rolled his eyes and looked quite miserable. "Dad has ... forget it. Leave it to your Hollywood godfather."
"Come on, Crow, just don't use that name, okay?" Adrian sighed.
"What?" Crowd raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Sometimes a director of miracles who has a huge influence in Hollywood would feel wrong?"
"Of course not. I just don't like the word godfather, it's easy to cause a lot of associations. I prefer another word," Adrian grinned ... goodbye to Claude. Adrian started swinging around the party. He wasn't just for fun. Someone was waiting for him to comfort him. Of course, some people didn't need it.
"Why am I sad? You have made me hundreds of psychological preparations. Do I need to care?" Kate shrugged naturally, as if she didn't really care.
"Hmm ..." Adrian didn't know what to say for a while, and then asked after touching his nose. "Then I leave."
Kate made a call gesture directly.
"I'm really leaving?" Adrian raised his leg and was about to leave.
Kate looked at him with a smile.
"Are you really not planning to keep me?" Adrian frowned.
"Why keep you? Many people are waiting for you," Kate snorted. "I just saw Gwyneth being unhappy there. No one seems to want to talk about it. Don't you plan to comfort her and show your grace?"
"Then I have to show it to you first." Adrian Haha smiled, reached out and brushed the hair in her ears, "Well, then I'll pass, be careful. Turn around you There will be more and more reporters, so pay special attention when taking Lily out and don't let them take pictures. "
"You've said it hundreds of times already." Kate gave him a wink.
Adrian smiled and glanced around. Although there were a lot of people, there seemed to be few people looking at it, but in fact, it was not clear how. This is just right. Immediately, he squeezed Kate's chin, came over and kissed gently on the delicate lips before leaving. Kate froze for a few seconds before sighing with a complex heart in his back.
"Hey, why are you alone here?" Adrian quickly arrived next to Gwyneth, who was sitting in the corner with a wine glass.
The girl glanced at him resentfully and drank the drink in the cup.
"Ha, this is not like my baby," Adrian laughed. Reaching her arm around her shoulder, "It's just the best supporting actress, so why bother?"
"I didn't care, I just ..." Gwennis discerned, biting her lips and looking very uncomfortable. "I just ... don't want to lose to that woman!"
Speaking here, she suddenly looked at Adrian with suspicion: "Don't you let someone give her special PR support, Ed."
"How could it be." Adrien laughed abruptly.
Well, Gwyneth's agent and public relations team were arranged by Adrian. He didn't specifically say anything, and they didn't use all the means to go to public relations, so even with her parents, the godfather was beside him. Help, still unable to influence the result. Adrian did not deceive her, and he did not give special support to Nicole's public relations.
"Okay, dear Gwinnie, don't care about this." Adrian's hand slid behind the sofa, grabbing her waist and stroking it in the back, "In my opinion it's better and keep failing Keep working hard, and then when you pick up Little Golden Men, everyone will applaud you, and no one can question you. "
At this point he paused and looked aside, just right.
"Russell," Adrian yelled, and the newly arrived film prince stopped by and walked over with his girlfriend.
"Ed." His expression of excitement was clearly immersed in the joy of winning.
"How does it feel to be the best actor?" Adrian asked jokingly.
"It's great, it's great, I like the feeling." Clow replied with a smile.
"Don't be too embarrassed," Adrian said with a smile, and then the words turned sharply. "Yes, it's been a month since the start of Beautiful Mind, is it okay?"
"Well ... it's not bad," although he didn't understand why he suddenly turned to this topic, Clo still answered seriously, "Mr. Nash is an amazing mathematician, and he is as elusive as if he is crazy And sober wise man. I remember visiting him at home, he was almost ... "
Speaking of which, Clo seems to have thought something funny: "He spent almost ten minutes thinking about whether to drink black tea or green tea."
After this sentence was spoken, several people in the room laughed, and Gwennis was no exception.
"I have to say that Ms. Alicia is also a great woman. Fortunately, she has taken care of Mr. Nash day after day, otherwise he might not be awake yet," Crowe said immediately.
"Have you heard, Gwinnie? You are a great woman." Adrian turned his head and said to Gwennis, "Can you fully explain her inner meaning?"
"Of course," Gwyneth said unpleasantly, "Long praised me more than once, and Russell could testify."
"That's right, indeed." How could Clo not understand the reason Adrian called him at this moment, and then nodded and said: "Gwenis is very good, Ed, the director did admit it. You recommend her to act Ms. Alicia is very suitable, and I think maybe these days next year can celebrate her. "
"Maybe I can celebrate for you at the same time-well, then I'll wait to see the finished product." Adrian gave Gwennis a meaningful look, then laughed.
After talking a few more words before Clo left, Adrian stared at Gwenness's grey-green eyes: "Do you need anything else?"
"No, I will do what I need." Gwenise said with her chin raised.
"So, I'm going somewhere else, sorry. Baby." Adrian kissed her lips at the same time, then got up and left.
Watching his back sigh, Gwennis frowned slightly, and she always felt like she had overlooked something.
After comforting Zeta Jones, and whispering to Julia with little Emma, ​​Adrian left the party hall and walked down the hallway.
"It's weird. I just saw her here clearly." He walked back and forth a little strangely to himself.
Or go see Nayeon first and then come back? Although I wanted to keep her last, I would be a bit sorry if I returned early. Adrian thought about it, and was about to go back to the hall. He suddenly stretched his hands out of the corner, grabbed his collar, and yanked it, followed by it into a nearby house.
Before Adrian spoke, his mouth was blocked by the wet lips, and the opponent attacked fiercely. It seemed that he wanted to seize the opportunity to overwhelm him, and he naturally recklessly counterattacked, the tongue you entangled with me, the noisy voice kept ringing in the dim room, if after a long time. The two men gasped apart.
"You brought me here on purpose." Adrien grinned as he pressed the chandelier switch.
"So what?" Nicole's cheeks were flushed, and her grey and blue eyes were dim, giggling, and extremely charming.
She lifted up her skirt, dropped the thong inside, and kicked to the side, followed by untied Adrian's belt, and unzipped it. She exhaled the heat in his ear, with a hint of wine, and apparently drank a few glasses before, "I know who you are going to be with tonight, it doesn't matter, I just need to do it now, I want you to violate me fiercely! Ed, you see, cruel, merciless, if you don't paralyze me here, I will never let you go! "
"I like your sensuality now, Nicole," Adrian took a deep breath, feeling her movements, "as you wish, but ..."
He made a pocket move: "I don't have that much cash to pay this tonight."
"You are really the worst client in the world!" Nicole said after watching him half a while, gritting his teeth, but her eyes became more excited, and one leg was lifted up and hung up and down on his waist. "But it doesn't matter, I'll entertain you for free tonight, are you satisfied now?"
"Very satisfied." Adrian hugged her with a big laugh ... Yeah, it's a bit regretful, but it's normal, I'm a little younger. "Natalie was absently dealing with the producers in front of her, while she looked around with light from time to time.
"This is the problem with Oscar. The award should be given to those who are really talented, not their seniority. Frankly speaking, I think" Bone in Winter "is more realistic than" Uncompromising. " "Higher," the producer chattered.
Natalie smiled and didn't answer, and glanced around again, still no figure.
"You want to find Mr. Adrian?" The producer looked out.
"Yes, anyway, I should thank him in person, like ... Russell or Julia." Natalie took a deep breath ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I'm afraid I have to wait for a while, I Just now it seemed to him which lady had gone upstairs, "the producer blinked." It would be better for us to find a place to chat in private and wait for him to come back. "
"No, no, I have to go back. It's not too late to say thank you." Natalie picked up her handbag and left.
"I can show you back," the producer said immediately.
"Thank you, no need," Natalie's tone became cold. "I arranged everything when I came."
After speaking, she hurriedly went out. Fortunately, the annoying fly didn't keep up, which relieved her. At the same time, the violent contradictions in her heart made her uncomfortable. After seeing Adrian's powerful influence tonight, Natalie knows that he can indeed hold himself to the top of the world if he wants to, set a nomination record so close to the highest Oscar honor, and then wiped his shoulders After that, she had never been as eager as she is now, especially when she knew that she couldn't get it. When Spicey opened the envelope on it, she still thought of herself as if she had entered a magical hope.
Now, Adrian has proven what he said, but ... she was afraid ... (to be continued) Q
