"But what?" After being looked at by Adrian for about 5 or 6 minutes, cruise finally couldn't help asking, and frowned imperceptibly, and a trace of displeasure and dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes. Although his action was very small, he could not conceal Adrian's eyes which were always watching him.

What a hell, I didn't seem to be in touch with him except Cannes Film Festival? Adrian thought inexplicably. Forget it, there are still two films that need his cooperation, and

After a quick glance at the woman around cruise, Adrian continued to smile and say, "I think there is a character that suits you very well, Tommy, a contradictory and evil character."

"Is there a role for me?" CRUSTON came to the spirit, the previous point of displeasure also instantly thrown out of the air.

Not only he, but the others also pricked up their ears. Since Adrian said that, there must be a reason for him. After tonight, Adrian's prestige has been initially established.

"Yes, although the novelist may disagree, I think you are absolutely suitable." Adrian nodded seriously.

"I can Can I know what role this is? " Cruise's hand on the armrest unconsciously pinched into a fist, but his voice was excited. I could see that he resisted, but he didn't want to let go of this opportunity.

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you yet. We're still in the process of discussion and preparation, and the director won't be me," Adrian bluntly said. "But there's no better actor than you that I've considered."

"Thank you." Cruise said perfunctorily, looking a little disappointed.

Adrian's most of the films nominated are from Oscar, so it's no wonder that Adrian's films are not less attractive.

But cruise then added, "maybe we can get a chance to talk about it in detail."

"No problem. We'll start preparing the film by mid May at the latest, and we'll have enough time before that." Adrian nodded to show that it was, and then looked with interest at Nicole Kidman, who was next to cruise.

Perhaps the reason why Adrian had noticed it was that he had not seen it clearly. And before that, Adrian said that there was a role for cruise, Nicole moved the corners of her mouth as if she wanted to ask something, but she quickly suppressed it. Obviously, this woman is smarter than cruise.

"What's the problem, ed?" Nicole asked with a smile. It was the first time she spoke tonight. Most of the time, she was more like an accessory of cruise. No wonder it ended up

"It's a pity that after looking back on several scripts I've seen, none of them are suitable for a beautiful woman like you, so I'll have to cooperate next time." Adrian said with regret.

There was a glimmer of disappointment in Nicole's eyes, but there was always a smile on her face: "it doesn't matter. There are still opportunities in the future, right?"

"Yes, there will be another chance." Cruise interrupted.

Adrian shrugged, said a few words to the others, and then got up to leave. After greeting and congratulating the laughing Emma Thompson and Al Pacino through the crowd, he came to the man who was sitting at the bar drinking alone.

"Martini, with ice." After ordering the bartender, Adrian looked at Lafayette and said, "are you OK, laver."

"Of course, what's the matter?" Lafayette turned his head, glowing red, without the slightest expectation of depression.

So Adrian froze for a few minutes until the bartender brought the martini he wanted.

"You surprise me, laver." He said with a smile.

"Because I didn't cry in my arms or feel sorry for myself?" Lafayette asked with a smile.

"Not so much exaggeration, but I thought at least you would be down for a while." Adrian didn't hide it.

"I was really depressed, but for a short time, I was OK after I left the music center. It's no use, and - I'm sure you won't let it go, will you? " Lafayette looked at him without blinking.

Adrian looked at him in surprise for a long time, then spread out his hands: "it seems that all the words I thought of were useless, this Is it lucky? "

"I've made a lot of wrong judgments, I've looked at it many times, but I won't this time," Lafayette said with a smile

"OK..." Adrian smacked his mouth. He knew he didn't have to say much more. So he raised his glass to Lafayette: "so, Oscar."

"To Oscar." Lafayette also raised the glass in his hand, and the two cups collided with each other and made a jingle.

Since Lafayette doesn't need to comfort himself, what should he do? Adrian, who had finished Martini, was about to find another target when Claude's voice rang in his ear: "Hey, ED, you're here.""Don't tell me. You've been looking for me for a long time." Adrian immediately turned his head and pointed to his nose and said, "I've been sitting with the old man Shiyi. Unless you suddenly lose sight, you won't be able to see me."

"All right," said Claude, rolling his eyes, "I just went around."

"Around? Why didn't I see it? Did I go upstairs with someone? " Adrian asked on purpose.

"I'm not like you. I like doing this at parties." Claude shrugged.

"I don't think there's any difference between taking a woman to a hotel and a room at a party," Adrian scoffed, but immediately changed the subject. "I've got a business to talk to you about. Let's find a quiet corner."

"Find a quiet corner? Not here? "

"If you want to be interrupted every three minutes on average, I don't have a problem."

They sat down relatively quietly. Claude looked around and suddenly asked, "where's your lover?"

"Monica knows when to be with me." Adrian smile, the mobile phone seems very proud of the appearance, but immediately face a whole: "my proposal, how do you think about it?"

"I know what you think. The right to issue overseas is really important, but if this acquisition is successful, we will also have the right to issue overseas, won't we?" Said Claude, half smiling.

Overseas distribution rights are really important, which is one of the criteria for entering MP +. If Hollywood is a big company, then MP + is the board of directors of the company, and the seven major film companies that control the MP + rating standards are board members. Although MP + is just a non-governmental organization, it has the best rights. No film can be released without rating - Oh, it can also be released without rating. Once it is labeled as non classified, it can only be played in a few cinemas, which has no box office or much influence, no matter what kind of film producer It is impossible to choose not to grade, unless you intend to use this method to hype in the beginning.

Even if it is graded, different grades will greatly affect the box office. The box office of R and PG-13 is completely different, let alone NC-17, which is not much worse than x-level or unclassified box office. So every year, when large companies send big productions for approval, they have to fight for it. It would be great if they could raise the film level of their rivals by one level.

If Adrian wants to build his empire, then his film company must have a place in MP +, so overseas distribution rights must also be owned. It's just that he doesn't just want to say that now.

"Do you want me to tell you the story of the salesman and the leather shoes again, crow?" Adrian asked, raising his eyebrows.

"Hey, ED, I didn't refuse," Claude said with a wry smile and raised his hands. "What I want to say is that the country is still very strange to us, and it's less than four years ago, and it's not the best opportunity."

"Well, crow, don't use political topics to prevaricate me. You should know that the target you are planning to buy has already started to visit China," Adrian retorted rudely. "Why are the overseas box office sales in these two years increased by at least 20 percent? Because the market in Eastern Europe was completely opened after 1991. If China's market is opened again, think about it, they have 1 billion to 1.2 billion people. If each person spends 1 yuan to watch a movie, how much profit is it? It will be sooner or later that Japan will surpass Japan to become Hollywood's largest box office base in East Asia. "

anyway, the tuition fees of Chinese films will have to be paid sooner or later. It is better to hand them over to themselves than to others, and they will give some feedback back. That's Adrian's plan. He is only thinking about commercial interests, as for other aspects, there is no need to worry. He knows better than anyone how to protect the Chinese government. It is much easier and stronger than European governments.

If they want to listen to it, Adrian doesn't mind letting Chinese movies take a little detours - of course, it's just a little bit. After all, he's an American now, expecting them to believe him without reservation? Don't be kidding. In short, in the case of sufficient profits, to help as much as possible is also an account of their own.

"You're right, but a little idealistic." "Don't say I've been against you all the time, ED," Claude said before Adrian wanted to say something. "Think about it. From the time you fry yen to now, you've been so surprised every time you make a proposal. I have to think about everything. Besides, I've been satisfying you, isn't it?"

"I've always understood you, crow, otherwise I would have..." Adrian made a "click" gesture and said in a joking tone.

"Well, I've arranged for an investigation. I'll see what happens when the results come out." Said Claude, waving his hand.

"That's it." Adrian didn't say much. After shrugging his shoulders, his eyes were attracted by people not far away.

"I had other business to do, so I left first." Leaving such a sentence, he immediately went that way."This guy..." After seeing Adrian's target, Claude shook his head and laughed.
