"Don't even think about it, James. You have to know that you were given a budget of 100 million dollars. You should be satisfied. Look at Joe and others. Who has ever treated you like this? I haven't even made a movie with a budget of more than $100 million. " Adrian, standing against the wall with his cup in his hand, joked to James Cameron, another bearded man.
"Hey, it's only 10 million, and I'm just trying to make it better." Cameron cringes for calling.
"Don't even think about it, James, unless you pay for it - what do you think, Trent?" Adrian said, looking at Sean waters, general manager of fox.
"I totally agree." Waters laughs. As the general manager of fox, he supervises the production of true lies. He knows Cameron's style too well.
"Well, James, ED is right. Few directors can get a $100 million budget to spend like you do." Seeing that Cameron still wanted to talk, Jonathan Demi on the side immediately opened his mouth, but his tone was also mocking.
"Well, James, it's just another delusion," Adrian took over, not giving Cameron a chance to speak. "Let's just finish making this movie."
Cameron finally smiles, shrugs, and suddenly asks, "remember what we said that day, ed? When I came out of the bar, Sean was there that day, but he left early
"Of course, I'll never forget myself," Adrian chuckled. "If this movie can achieve the expected goal, then I'll invest 200 million yuan for you to make the next film"
"really?" Cameron's eyes suddenly lit up, the tone also took excitement, "so how many box office is to achieve your expected goal?"
"Well, let's wait until the movie comes out." Adrian's hands spread out and people around him burst into laughter. In their eyes, Adrian was just joking. A look of disappointment flashed across Cameron's face, but after touching Adrian's meaningful eyes, he seemed to understand something, and then laughed with everyone.
"Speaking of it, I suddenly envy Arnold. Not everyone can play the leading role in such a big investment." Denzel Washington said, half jokingly, at the side.
"Who knows, no one can predict what will happen in the future." Tom Hanks slapped him on the shoulder with a smile.
"I can predict." Adrian immediately said, and then after everyone's eyes came over, he said solemnly, "but I can only predict the recent events, such as the future of Philadelphia story."
There was a burst of laughter, and then Todd browning, a global executive on the other side, asked, "so what's the future of Philadelphia Story?"
"I believe that anyone who has seen the audition will feel good, and maybe Joe will be nominated for Best Director Oscar again." Adrian thought about it and said in a very serious way.
"Is this a prophecy? Should it be seen as a miracle director's prophecy? "
"Ha, it looks like it's time to congratulate Joe in advance, and maybe get the nomination after a year's interval."
"Oh, come on, it's just Ed's prediction. Do you all think it's true?"
Everyone began to discuss, and then the topic went further and further. These are the guests at the party, executives from several well-known film companies, several well-known directors and actors, and even Spielberg and lux have been here - although they only stayed for 30 or 40 minutes and then left - not to mention the second and third tier directors, actors, producers and agents.
In addition, Frank West, the head of the Los Angeles branch, was present. After all, friends was on the air on their TV network, and some other networks tried to find ways - for example, some guests always brought a few friends - to the party, including Adrian's target Turner Broadcasting Company.
These well-informed guys know that since Bosworth has produced such a popular TV series, it is certain that it will continue to develop. In addition, there is Adrian, the miracle director or the miracle writer. This is the new name given to him by people in the circle after the hit of friends. However, since he is still mainly making films and has a large number of screenwriters Part of it is to provide ideas and then let the writer finish, so the title only exists in private.
In short, with such a person, the production of TV series will be more or less guaranteed, and these TV networks naturally hope to get a share of it. After all, the competition is also very big
it can be seen that although Adrian is still a new rich man in Hollywood in terms of time, his status and identity is much higher than that of a new director or producer Too much. After all, he is also the chairman of AC media. Although AC media is not as good as those big group companies, it is almost impossible for the chairman of a media company to be a director. Naturally, it is not comparable to ordinary new directors or producers.
"Remember what you promised me, Tom, there's a movie next year, and I hope you'll be the leading actor." Adrian took the time to say this to Hanks in front of everyone."No problem. I'll make time for you." The other side agreed without hesitation.
"It looks like workaholic is starting again." Then someone made such a joke and then pulled out of a bunch of topics.
It was also an expression of power and status. If Hanks had been invited to do so, he would never have answered so readily. Of course, it has something to do with Hanks not yet at the top, but Adrian would not have used "I need" instead of "I hope".
However, such status, status and power are also relative. Although he can be regarded as a big man in front of these people, he is still a real new man in front of some people. At the godfather's reception a few days ago, the old man Lei Shidong relied on his old age to say that he and Claude were "two good young men".
Although a little bit unhappy, but Adrian quickly left behind, leishidong certainly has the right to say so. In fact, most of the celebrities who attended the godfather's reception can say that. They are young indeed. But it doesn't mean that young people are very young. Claude has put leishidong together.
"I'm not sure about his proposal. I'm joking. I want to take a stake in paramount from me." After a few separate conversations with Redstone, Claude said to Adrian, "although we all agree to go back to Viacom, it's not right now. We'd better wait for them to come up with a result."
Adrian can only laugh at this.
"Hey, ED, you're here." A hand suddenly hit Adrian on the shoulder.
"Dan?" Adrian turned his head, then deliberately looked relieved. "Who did I think it was?"
"What's the matter?" Dennis asked curiously.
"No, nothing. Did you have a good time?" Adrian shook his head and opened the conversation. He talked with Cameron for a long time and dealt with the executives of various TV networks who came to chat with him for a long time. He was just about to stay in this quiet corner for a few minutes, and then he found Julia to leave, but Dennis came back.
"Oh, of course, very happy, and so are they." Dennis stepped aside and six stars, including Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox and Matthew Perry, as well as several screenwriters and directors, appeared in front of him.
"Hi, ED, long time no see. You look so handsome." Compared with the other five actors, Jennifer was more familiar with Adrian, so she began to say hello with a smile.
"Hi, Janny, you too. More beautiful than before." Adrian grinned and hugged her, and then the other five hugged in turn: "gentlemen, ladies, congratulations."
Thank you, ed
"That's right. If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't have the chance to play such an interesting TV series."
Matthew and others spoke with gratitude and respect, especially David xiumeng. After all, when Adrian was looking for them to play, he wanted to refuse it. If Adrian hadn't given up, he would not be here today. Maybe he would regret it at home.
Adrian talked to them with a smile and accepted their gratitude. To be honest, for a few minutes, he really wanted to know whether they would feel resentful if they found their role completely limited in friends after ten years.
"By the way, ED, have you considered a cameo role in friends?" After chatting for a few minutes, a screenwriter suddenly said to Adrian. Suddenly, everyone's eyes were turned to him.
"Do you have any good ideas, Braga?" Adrian asked quietly.
The biggest attraction of friends is not only the interesting language and the humor close to life, but also the guest role of famous stars. They are all the original cast, and this point of course will not be ignored, just did not expect that they actually hit his head.
"There's an idea." The male screenwriter, known as Braga, said with a smile that he was about twenty-seven or eight years old and very young. No wonder he was so bold.
"Matt's Joey is a soap opera actor, just for him to design a movie audition plot." Braga said, "you can play the director, or you can just play yourself. Think about it. Joey's going to play for director miracle."
Friends has 11 episodes now, and there are at least 13 episodes to be filmed. They are going to let him be the guest star. It's a good plan.
"Well, ED, you just need to be authentic." Seeing that he was still thinking, Braga continued to persuade, "you know, Dan is behind you. As soon as Janie opened her mouth, he promised to guest star"
"has Dan agreed?" Adrian looks at Dennis, who nods at him.
Interesting. Adrian narrowed his eyes. Speaking of it, Dan has been very close to Janie at the party tonight, and Norie hasn't seen him around for several times It's really interesting.“
