It's lucky to have a friend like Claude. So Adrian shrugged his shoulders and asked the waiter for coffee and continued to write and draw in his notebook. He is painting the sub lens of his first film. There are many small and high box office movies in his head, but no matter which one is, the cost is lower than that in his hands.

He could actually go home and paint, but the original plan was to have dinner with Claude after meeting. But what did this guy say to him: I don't want to go to dinner alone with a man! And before leaving, I teased him: I don't know why you always like to meet in this small and broken coffee shop.

Damn it, what's the size of this cafe? Not only is it clean and tidy, but also the service attitude and the scenery outside are very good. Besides, I haven't been here before Adrian is a little worried about this cafe. Then he was slightly stunned, and then shook his head with a smile. The integration is really good. In addition, after a few months, it has been fully adapted, so it's good to not bear too much of the past.

"This is Your painting? " A voice was heard nearby.

Adrian raised his head, a sharp face appeared in front of his eyes, about 18 to 30 years old, very handsome, but also has a kind of vicissitudes of life feeling, I believe for this cafe attracted a lot of girls and men with special hobbies. He gazed at Adrian's painting, blinking and seemingly attracted.

"What's your opinion?" Adrian asked curiously.

"Oh, no, it's nothing," the other side responded and filled him with coffee nervously. "Sorry, if I disturb you, I'll apologize. Please don't Complain to me. "

Adrian laughed and shook his head. "I won't, but do you understand my paintings?"

"Yes, sir," the other party nodded. "Although the lines are simple, I can see that you are drawing the movie sub lens."

The young man then explained, "I've played a few small roles in some movies, so I can roughly understand it."

Adrian was more surprised, but also came to interest: "so what do you see?"

"I'm sorry, I just think of some past events because of your sub lens, not what you see." The other side honestly said, "I haven't reached the point where I can see the quality of a movie through such a simple split shot."

"Some of the past? If you don't mind... " Adrian looked at his badge. "Mr. knight, can you tell me?"

"There's nothing to say, sir. I came to this city with a star dream when I was 16 years old four years ago, but after four years I had to work in a coffee shop for a living." Knight's tone was full of bleak feelings.

Adrian then showed a sudden look, Hollywood vanity fair all the time attracted those eager to become famous men and women to participate in it. It's a pity that one of the 100 people is called a contract actor, and many of them are working after their dreams have been shattered, just like Mr. Dennis knight.

But with Dennis's quality, it should be easy to win favor? Adrian squinted suddenly. Although he directed some small TV dramas before his rebirth, he still had a good eye for people when he saw so many films. Dennis is is not particularly handsome, but he is sharp and angular. He has a certain flavor of being young. He is very malleable, especially when he is only 20 years old. If you want to describe him as a real person, he is similar to Brad Pitt.

It was obvious that he had seen something. Adrian shook his head in secret, perhaps out of curiosity or joking at all, and he blurted out, "I'm preparing my first film. I need a character with acting experience. Are you interested in trying it?"

Dennis, who was packing up, stopped, looked at Adrian for a while and then nodded, "no problem."

Adrian was surprised to pick eyebrows: "you don't worry that I am a liar?"

"You don't shrug, sir," he said? It's not worse than it is now. You're not gay. "

This guy Fortunately Adrian didn't put the coffee in his mouth, but he became more interested in Dennis: "that's settled. Here's my business card. In addition, give me your phone number. I believe I will call you soon. "

He said with a snap of his fingers and an enigmatic smile: "you're lucky, boy. From now on, as long as I want, I can make anyone a superstar! "

Lafayette hurried into the meeting room, sat down in his seat, and then glanced at his colleagues, although most of them were expressionless The burning sensation in the eyes could not be more obvious. He couldn't help sighing. It's no wonder that when the company is acquired, no one knows what kind of attitude the new boss will have towards them.He has been the general manager of the film company for almost seven years. It is difficult for him to accept the company's acquisition emotionally. Although Bosworth film company is small, it was established in the 1960s and survived several times. If the boss's son didn't need capital turnover after inheriting the company, how could this well qualified film be sold?

With the sound of footsteps, a 20 to 30 or so young man with a smile appeared at the door of the conference room, angular lines and with a kind of unspeakable softness, let some rough face increased a bit handsome.

"Hello, ladies and gentlemen." "I'm Adrian Cowell, the new chairman of Bosworth. I know that everyone is worried now. Maybe I will carry out drastic reform and some people will lose their jobs. However, I am here to assure you that I will not interfere in the business of the company for at least half a year, nor will I easily dismiss any of the ladies and gentlemen present here. "

Although I'm not sure how credible this is, and I know that the new boss has something to say next, people sitting here, including Lafayette, are relieved.

"But in the next six months, I will inspect all of you. As long as you can get my approval, I don't mind giving you a raise. Of course, if we can't achieve it, we can only say that we are sorry. " The new boss's words immediately let a few people in the heart a tight, have looked at the general manager Lafayette.

Raven hesitated, and was about to make a few tentative remarks, when Adrian's voice rose again: "that's it for today. Mr. Mel will stay. The others will come back."

Soon, there were only two people left in the conference room, even if it was not very large, it felt a little empty.

"Mr. Lafayette - may I call you Laffer? Thank you Adrian nodded with a smile. "I've read your information. You're an excellent general manager. If it wasn't for the short boards in this company, you would have made a career. If you can, can you tell me why you were an assistant to President paramount seven years ago and you suddenly quit and work for such a small company? "

"The world is not fair, Mr Adrian." Lafayette shrugged his shoulders and didn't say much. He believed that since the other party had read his information, he must have known about his experience in paramount. "As for why I went to Bosworth and stayed for seven years, it was because my father had some friendship with old Mr. Bosworth. Are you satisfied with this answer?"

"Very satisfied," Adrian laughed. "Well, Laffer, don't worry. I said that if I don't get involved in the company's business in half a year, I'll do it."

"If you can, can you tell me about your plans, Mr. Adrian?" Asked Lafayette.

Adrian stares at him for a few seconds, then smiles. "It's very simple. I'm going to make and direct a small budget film in the UK. I'm going to finish shooting and post production in two months, and then send it to the Venice Film Festival in August, so you have to arrange some people who are familiar with the business."

"Sorry, you mean..." Raven looked at Adrian in disbelief. He didn't expect the new boss to be a hands-on director.

"You're right," Adrian nodded. "I'm going to direct and produce a B-rated film that costs no more than $200000 in two months and send it to Venice for exhibition. And, although this is my first time as a director and producer, I believe the box office of this film will definitely be hundreds of times the cost. "

"Sounds like Very good. " Said Lafayette, rubbing his head in such a wry smile.

"I know it's hard for you to accept empty talk, but you'll see the truth in two months, Lafayette." Adrian opened his hand with a smile. "Just to tell you a little bit more, I'm going to inject capital into the company for the first time soon. The acquisition of Bosworth is just the beginning."

Lafayette didn't speak, just quietly watching Adrian waiting for his message.

"You're a smart guy, Lafayette. I need the help of smart people," Adrian sat up straight. "I hope you can keep the company running, especially the contacts and networks, within six months."

Mr. general manager doesn't believe the big words of the new boss. He has been working in this field for more than ten years, and he has never seen anyone else. But from the last sentence, he still heard the ambition of the other side, and the confidence revealed in the language could not be ignored. So after pondering for a few seconds, Lafayette stood up and nodded, "I'm glad to help you, sir."

"Good, that's it." Adrian knocked on the table and suddenly thought of something. "By the way, you can make a report of the script that you put into the editorial team, list the contents and brief introduction, and then give it to me once a week."

At this point, he laughed: "don't worry, I just have some experience in writing. I've just bought four scripts, and two of them are for sale."
