In the spacious study, the exquisite handmade furniture, the gorgeous curtain on the window and the European style decoration create the classical atmosphere of the room just right. A row of tall bookcases against the wall contain many books, from literature, philosophy and history to finance and commerce. The bookcase is not locked, and many books can be seen through the glass, so these are not used to decorate the decoration.

At the top of the study is a large desk. Although there are many objects on it, they are arranged in a neat and orderly way. From this we can infer that the master of the study is a self disciplined, authoritative and unquestionable one. In the middle of the desk, there is a small bronze bust with thick hair and beard. There is a sentence carved under it: the pursuit of personal interests is the essence of human beings. This is the famous saying of Adam Smith. The wealth of nations, the main founder of economics, has influenced many people later.

However, this bronze statue is not a bust of him. According to Uncle Anderson, it is a Duke of the Cowell family. He was active in the Tudor Dynasty and laid a huge foundation for the Cowell family. After the twists and turns, it can be connected with Henry VIII and Elizabeth I in blood.

Adrian was always amused at the thought of it. He couldn't understand why the upper class people in the United States, especially the group named after them, were so full of aristocratic complex that they always wanted to connect themselves with the British royal family, as if they were superior to each other.

It is understandable that Europeans have aristocratic complex. After all, they have tradition, but Americans Well, I came from the European continent at the beginning, but I don't know whether it's satire or mockery to think that the United States was still struggling to become independent.

"Why did you come in so quickly? I thought you would talk to them more." Anderson's old voice suddenly rang out.

"I suddenly thought of something and wanted to find a place to think quietly, so..." Adrian made a gesture to explain, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the other party: "did you think of something? What else is more important than today's cocktail party? Warren is interested in you, you should take the opportunity, ed "

" OK, I apologize, uncle. " Adrian shrugged his shoulders and tried to speak with sincerity. He was used to his uncle's way of speaking and scolding. Generally speaking, he would wander for a moment and wait for him to finish what he wanted to say. So even though Anderson was still nagging about Warren Buffett at the previous reception, Adrian didn't hear a word.

He came to New York to see his uncles and aunts just to express his feelings. He didn't have time to have in-depth communication with people like Warren Buffett. Besides, it should be Claude's business. He just needs to make a good impression with them.

Soon, one of his uncle's words brought him back to reality: "you're too close to the Jews, ed."

"You know, uncle, that's Hollywood." Adrian said slowly.

"I understand, but you have to notice that," Anderson said, frowning. "It's not good to be too close to those people. You have to understand what you're doing."

"Yes, uncle." Adrian nodded, but in spite of this reply, there was a burst of disdain in his heart. For the pure, it was almost natural not to deal with the Jews, just as they liked to pursue the aristocratic blood.

Adrian knows that, but he never takes it to heart. There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests, which was said by British Prime Minister Palmerston in the 19th century - not Churchill, but condensed - which is not applicable to individual human beings, but very suitable for countries and large groups, so there is no need to worry too much. Of course, it's right to remind Claude.

"If only Victor could be like you." Anderson suddenly exclaimed.

"Victor will understand sooner or later, uncle." Adrian said against his heart, and at the same time sighed for his cousin in his heart. He would bet that his uncle said something like "look at your cousin" in front of victor.

No matter where, which country, what era, there are always parents who talk about "children of others". They always think that this can better spur their children forward, but they don't understand that what the children want most is the affirmation from their parents. It's no wonder victor and his father are in hot water.

Of course, it's uncle Anderson's family business. He doesn't need to get involved. Just say a few words. Although Adrian and Victor's relationship is very general, but he believes that victor will not hate him.

"Then I'll leave, uncle. Nice to meet you." Adrian said and stood up.

"Leaving so soon?" Anderson frowned. "What are you up to? Making movies again? "

"Well Yes, it's a very interesting film that runs through the 40 years of American history. " Adrian explained that as soon as the words fell, uncle continued to criticize: "I think you should focus on the management of the company, not the film production. Although you have won a lot of honors, but..."No one can bear this kind of care? After coming to the street, Adrian was so ferocious. But he soon put it behind him. Anyway, uncle helped himself a lot. He liked to let him be so good.

"To long island." As he got into the car, Adrian told the driver that he didn't know that Charlize had come to New York with him, but he wasn't there at the moment.

"It's too much to leave her." Adrian said half self mockery, then noticed the briefcase left in the car, opened it, shook his head with a smile, and then looked out of the window.

He didn't come to New York for the shooting of Forrest Gump. The whole film is almost finished. The rest is the anti war demonstration in the reflection pool under the Washington Monument and various outdoor scenes in Washington. Therefore, if he is really busy shooting things, he should not appear here.

However, since Adrian has come to New York, naturally there are things to do, such as visiting his uncle and aunt, and dealing with some Si affairs. And then he had to go to London. Apart from the fact that he hadn't seen Emma for a long time, an important thing had come to an end, and it was time to put it into control.

After finishing his clothes, Adrian got out of the car with his briefcase, walked through the fence of a two-story cottage and rang the doorbell.

"Hi, ED, nice to meet you." Cherie, who opened the door, gave him a hug and then turned to the inside and said, "Hey, Nada, who's here?"

"Ed?" The petite Natalie immediately got out of the inner room and looked at Adrian at the door with surprise eyes.

Adrian said hello to her with a smile and wave, but did not speak. This is another thing that he came to New York. He invited Natalie to play s è in person. As for why he robbed the subordinate's work, it is self-evident.

"I love the play, ed. it's good." After simply flipping through the script, ivnalu looks satisfied.

"Thank you. I'm glad you like it." Adrian with the cup smiles and nods, then looks at Natalie.

After a few months, Natalie has grown a few inches, and her hair is no longer the Bo * head she used to shoot "the killer is not too cold". Some of them are as long and slightly curved as they were when they met for the first time. This makes her a little more beautiful. Her round face has begun to become sharp, but her eyes are still so bright.

But at this time, she seemed a little depressed, especially after reading the script. Although Natalie concealed herself well and kept smiling when Adrian asked, she did not escape his eyes.

"Then, will you agree to come down?" Adrian looks at her with a meaningful smile.

"Well..." Natalie opened her mouth and, judging from her God s è, seemed to want to refuse, but after touching Adrian's eyes, she swallowed back and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I need time to think about it."

"Can you give us a few minutes, ivner?" Adrian smiles and looks at the girl's father.

"Oh, of course." Avner nodded, got up, took his wife to a distance, and gave the living room to them.

"You think you can help me convince them." After they left, Adrian did not speak. Natalie complained first, and the angry s è between her eyebrows was no longer hidden.

"I'm sorry, Nada, I agree with your parents on this." Adrian whispered as he spread out his hand.

"Why?" Natalie frowned. "Do you think I can't interpret the angle s è? Or do you think about it in other ways, just like mom and dad? Mathilda is only 12, isn't she? "

Adrian frowned, but didn't bother with the topic: "Nada, do you like movies?"

"Of course." Although she didn't understand why he asked the question, Natalie replied.

"So, what do you think of being in a movie? I mean, are you going to take s è entirely out of interest, or are you going to make it your own business? " Adrian continued.

Natalie didn't answer directly this time, but after a long time, a smile crossed her face, and after looking at her parents who were talking in the distance, she gave the answer: "I want to take it as a career."

"Then rejection is the best thing to do." Adrian immediately said, then raised his hand to stop the girl's argument: "listen to me, Nada, I know you like this book very much, and I'm sure you can play the role of s è"

you are your Lolita. He said so softly in his heart, his face still serious: "but she's going to ruin your future, Nada. It's not alarmist. You should be aware of the great sensation this novel caused when it was published, and I believe sandy told you that Adrian Lynn is facing a lot of moral charges now, and if you do play Lolita, you will face the same blame. "

"But..." Natalie hesitated, a little unconvinced to argue: "you are so careful in" this killer is not too cold ", have you been criticized as well? Besides, there are not many controversial actors. ""This is totally different from" the killer is not too cold ". As you have said, I handle these feelings very carefully and stop. What's more, the movie has more than that, so there are few criticisms." Adrian patiently explained, "as for the other question, it's true that a lot of s è actors are also controversial, but very few people are controversial at your age, understand? This society won't like a girl of your age to play the role of s è, so if you do take over the role of Lolita, you may still be able to continue to act in the future, but it is completely out of touch with first-class actors. It is right for your parents to let sandy refuse the guy with the same name as me. "

Although Natalie returned to New York after the release of "the killer is not too cold" and has never been to Los Angeles, Adrian has always kept correspondence with her, occasionally making phone calls, and playing the role of listener s è, so she has a better understanding of her current situation, in some aspects, even better than her parents.

Because of Adrian, Natalie is now more famous than he remembers at the same time, so naturally, there are countless films coming in, all kinds of them. Even if his version of "the killer is not too cold" has been dealt with in the plot and some ambiguous plots have been watered down, the accusing voice is still inevitable. There is no shortage of self styled defenders, many of which are directed at Natalie herself.

As a result, Natalie's parents began to be more careful in choosing plays for their daughter. The over mature character s è was excluded, and films like Lolita, which are still considered as true in the eyes of conservatives, are not considered. However, to Adrian's surprise, Natalie herself wanted to play the role of s è.

"I think I can handle this angle s è well. I don't understand why my parents oppose it. Don't I know how to protect myself? I'm a big girl. Do you have any good advice, ed? "

This is a paragraph from Natalie's letter, which confirms that she really wants to take over the corner s è of Lolita, and implicitly expresses the hope that Adrian can help. When she thought about her audition, she didn't mean to blurt out that she liked Lolita. Adrian sighed again that the words of the media could not be fully believed. Natalie in memory would refuse the role s è, mostly at the request of her parents.

So he took this opportunity to come to New York and come to Natalie's house, not to persuade Avner and Shelley - even if Shelley might agree, conservative ivner would not allow it - but to persuade Natalie, as he said just now, if she really takes on the role of s è, she will be excluded from the mainstream society, and she will not be associated with the first-class actors, This is not alarmist. How many people knew that the female star of the 1997 version of Lolita had any praiseworthy works?

However, it was also a good opportunity, so Adrian had a script ready early.

"Do you think the script's corner s è doesn't challenge Xing, Nada?" Looking at the contemplative girl, Adrian suddenly asked, "do you think the girl corner s è in this single parent family is very simple?"

Looking at the script on the tea table, Natalie shook her head: "not necessarily, but I just

She made a gesture, the corner of her mouth showed a wry smile, and with a little grievance, biting her mouth, Chun looked as if I could see it.

"An actor with s è is finally brave enough to try a different role s è. Mathilda and Lolita are actually identical in some ways. You have shaped her very well. I bet that she will become the classic character s è in a few years' time, so there is no need to play the similar character s è any more." Adrian's voice hides a trace of following you, "and Amy, this lonely girl who has to live with some strange father because her mother was in a car accident is also worth your molding."

The movie he prepared for her is called fly with you. It is a very warm, environmental friendly and interesting movie. It tells about a girl named Amy who lost her mother in a car accident and was brought back to Canada by her divorced father. Amy, who didn't know how to get along with her father at first, was not used to it until one day she found a nest of wild goose eggs on the farm. She made a self-made incubator to successfully birth these wild geese and became their mother.

Amy loves the wild geese, but wildlife officials tell her it's illegal to keep them unless they don't have wings. So Amy tried to get them back to the south, but the question was, what would they do if they never flew? His father, who had been a pilot, came up with a way. He sold his homemade lunar module and bought a small plane. He made the small plane act as a mother goose and took the wild geese to fly south.

The father and daughter experienced many challenges, such as mistaking into the air force base, encountering heavy fog, and nearly crashing. They finally sent the wild geese back to the south of the United States. After such a miraculous journey, Amy's heart finally completely accommodated her father.

In a word, this is a warm and beautiful film about family relationship. There is nothing out of the ordinary, so Avner praised it as a good script before.

"Listen to me, Nada." Seeing that the girl still had some contradictions, Adrian suddenly grasped her hands. Although Natalie was surprised, Natalie did not break away."I love you, Nada," Adrian said, looking into her eyes. "Remember what I said. You're the most talented girl I've ever met. You're very smart and s è, so why limit yourself to a certain type of angle s è? Give full play to your talent and you'll be one of the best s è actors "

after a long look at Adrian, Natalie shrugged:" you really speak, ed. "

Then she suddenly thought of something, the face s è became a little strange and embarrassed, after a flash of red, she violently pulled her hand back, left the sentence "I'll tell mom and Dad" and got up and ran away.
