King of Hollywood

At the beginning of the new year, the commercial blockbusters that appear every week like the Christmas season no longer appear, and the entire market has begun to fall. In addition to those movies that continue to attract money, companies have also begun to consider arrangements for the new year, such as movies. Schedule, or the upcoming wave of awards, investment and production of new movies, etc.

Adrian is no exception. He is now eager to find someone to pick up Cameron's class and put the two shelves behind the Transformers first.

It's not easy, it's not easy, Cameron has done a great job in the first one, not to mention that this movie has already achieved 1.1 billion box office worldwide! And some areas have not been offline. Regardless of whether it can reach 1.2 billion in the end, this is still an amazing record. Although this is almost half of the amazing 2 billion of "Titanic", it is undeniable that the two best-selling movies in the world are currently from Hand of James Cameron.

Think of the original version. The world was only a little over 700 million, and it almost doubled. It was indeed Cameron. In the face of such an insurmountable mountain, and it is always compared by film critics and fans, the box office is the most obvious evidence. Anyone must weigh himself before taking over.

Adrian thinks most about Michael Bay, at least he knows what the audience wants to see, even if the plot is flawed, he can use other means to attract the audience's attention. As for the plot, after carefully studying the Harry Potter series, he has realized that it is impossible to complete the series of movies to keep the quality at the same level.

It just said that it was not easy to pick up Cameron's class. Secondly, Michael Bay didn't like to take a sequel movie--probably he had realized that it was necessary to take a sequel movie to the previous one. The director compared and he didn't like the feeling. However, many things have not gone well in recent years, and several films produced after breaking up with Bruckheimer have lost money. However, those horror films that have been invested in with Bosworth have made money. Maybe you can sit on this article. ? And he has a good relationship with DreamWorks ...

finally. Adrian decided to get in touch with him for a while and see what the reaction was, and then he turned his attention to his movie.

Because the film company didn't pay much attention to the dates in January, basically the movies that were previously screened will gradually be released at this time, so "Out of Control" was scheduled for mid-January. Because many film critics watched and wrote reviews before the screening, it did not cause much sensation, but it was also because of this. The movie debate has never stopped, and it has split into three camps.

First of all, there are professional film critics who have seriously commented on this film, and their views are similar. Natalie's acting skills are very good, and there is an inexplicable shock in it. However, although the whole movie is well controlled and the suspense is hidden to the last moment, the details that have been handled well have been missing in some places, so it is compared with Adrian's previous works. "Out of Control" can only score 80 points.

Then there's the fan base, Adrian's and Natalie's. Reasonable fans will also analyze the pros and cons of stories and acting skills, but diehard fans can always find the point to prove that their idol is the best. Especially Natalie ’s fans, those who loved her because of Amidala because of the pre-Star Wars are very enthusiastic, and her performance in "Out of Control" is also very exciting, so I can always see some on the Internet Exaggerate her words.

The third is those who attack for the attack. There are all kinds of people in them. They have one thing in common. That is to hate Adrian, so as long as they can catch the miracle director's loophole for criticism, they will be very happy. Coupled with the fact that some people are behind the scenes, the momentum is not small. Regarding Adrian's purpose of making "Out of Control", they are the most preached by them. It has been said before that with his actions in recent years, it is not difficult to guess.

So, "Adrian bought the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences?" This title has been circulating on some websites for a long time, and the purpose is to say nothing. Diehard fans naturally want to defend the idols. In their opinion, let alone a few awards, it is no problem to give all Oscar goldmen to Adrian or Natalie. As for film critics, well, this kind of thing has nothing to do with their profession, so there is no need to bother.

Adrian also ignored it, which might make him a little passive in public opinion, but the real effect was not great. If you are the owner of a movie company or just a producer or something, you may be upset about these things, but don't forget that he is a media tycoon.

Therefore, these tactics can only play at most half of what they usually do, and they have already reached this point. He will have all kinds of preparations in front of him, and no one wants to stop them.

"Everything is a foregone conclusion, all we have to do now is to wait in peace, dear Naa." Adrian stroked his arms and said in a playful tone.

Natalie, with her eyes half closed, made a few meaningless sounds, and was still immersed in the previous rhyme. Naturally, she could not hear the teasing taste in his words. Adrian didn't say more, bowed his head and kissed her little softness, and then raised his hands up and down again.

Of course, in the final analysis, in fact, if you want to do it, there is one thing that needs to be done. It is not easy, but it is not impossible.

boom! The gun rang, and a black-tailed deer fell in response to a distant bush.

"Yes!" Adrian, dressed as a wild hunter, lowered his shotgun, shook his hand and punched him in the air, his face really revealed an excitement. Then he made a gesture to get the deer back.

"I have to say, well done, Ed. Unfortunately, there are only three forks. It would be perfect if there were five forks." John Campbell, also dressed in hunting, put his hands in front of his eyes and looked into the distance Sorry to say a word.

On the winding hills, you can see at a glance that the large bushes under the tall oak trees make the surroundings look vibrant. This is the San Antonio Valley Nature Reserve in southern California. It is the most well-known hunting site on the west coast. Every year 10 From January to January, many people will come here to hunt wild deer. But not many people in the east where Adrian and Campbell are now, because it is not open to the public, of course, for big men like Adrian. This is not a problem.

"It's okay, I've found the feeling. From now on, this place will not be yours alone." Adrian said proudly, letting the shotgun be bulleted.

"Really?" Campbell laughed. "I admit that your marksmanship is good, Ed, but it's not just marksmanship that you want to hit the prey. You have to be patient and resilient, plus a little bit of luck."

He said that some of the prey, who were squinted and put together in the distance, belonged to him. There were almost three wild deer.

"Good marksmanship is the foundation," Adrian smiled slightly. "It's like the movie wants to win. Although the decisive factor lies in all aspects, quality is always the foundation. There is no foundation. Everything is just a phantom."

Campbell didn't answer, checked his shotgun and walked forward: "I hope to hit a wild boar. Here."

Adrian didn't care, he kept up, and continued: "You know, guns and cars are men's favorite, and I am no exception. In addition to collecting cars, I am also a member of several top gun clubs. Played Many well-known firearms may not be the best, but they are enough for me to harvest my prey after being familiar with it. And ... "

He smiled meaningfully: "My luck has always been good."

Campbell still didn't answer. After walking a long way to the raised hills, he raised his telescope and looked at him, then shook his head. Then he turned to Adrian and sighed, "What else do you want, Ed? Your purpose has been achieved. I can reveal a little bit of news. The academy argues over "Pianist". You only need to push gently to get what you want. Great cause. "

He knew very well that Adrian invited himself to hunt, or hunted in the San Antonio Valley Nature Reserve, not just for hunting.

"Of course," Adrian, who also followed him with a shotgun, replied in a light tone. "I have been preparing for so long, not for failure, but-you don't think" Out of Control "is also a good movie. Don't you think Natalie's performance in it is considered to be the highest level in her acting career? "

"Oh?" Campbell raised an eyebrow immediately, showing an interested look. "It looks like you really like that girl, Ed."

"Natalie is an excellent actor, and I think she deserves her reward." Adrian said calmly.

"No, no, Ed," Campbell shook his head. "Even ten years ago, she was still impossible. You should understand that maybe the academy would like to see the first actress after the reelection, but definitely not. It's her young man. "

"But she is a good template, the template that Hollywood most wants," Adrian said leisurely. "This will help enhance the image of Hollywood and the entire film industry."

"I know what you mean. There are countless young people who have graduated from high school every year, or have no high school education. They want to come here to get a job and look for opportunities to become famous, but only a few of them can be in movies. Show up with the TV series, and then a small number of them can get formal roles, and a very small number of people can become famous, and most of them end up just ... "Speaking here Campbell shrugged," So in the public, or rather In the eyes of conservatives, Hollywood is a fallen place for paper drunks, and stars are superficial people who do n’t even have a higher education. Here are bad girls. ”

He paused, then looked at Adrian: "It's a problem, indeed, although Dante said, go his own way and let others talk, but we all know that image is very important, especially for a large entity To say, but— "

Campbell spoke sharply: "Isn't there a star with a high education, why do you have to choose Natalie?"

"It's not just a question of high education, John," Adrian is still the same, "in my opinion, the template we need should be like this: smart, highly educated, temperamental and acting, Appearance is not the kind that is so beautiful that it is easy to overlook other aspects, but it also has the attractive place. Therefore, she should be born as a child star. She's pretty, but she must have temperament and personality; again, she should have a high degree, preferably an Ivy League school. Finally, the role she has played must have both a feminine side and a feminine side. Show the strong side of women. "

Campbell, who froze for a few seconds, showed a surprised expression, and then smiled shyly: "I have to say it again, Ed, it seems that you really like that girl, so much ... So much effort. Shouldn't you be ready more than a decade ago? "

"Do you think I'm talking about Natalie?" Who knew Adrian raised an eyebrow and laughed after Haha, "No, no, wrong, John, wrong!"

The corner of his mouth was tilted upwards, with a cunning insight: "I said it was not Natalie, I said-Judy Foster!"

That's right, as one of Hollywood's most accomplished female stars, Judy Foster is in full compliance with these Adrians. She started her advertising modeling career at the age of three. The character who became famous was the young prostitute in Scorsese's Taxi Driver, which was launched in 1976, making her the most popular child star at the time. It was so controversial that she was assassinated by the president a few years later.

Later, she entered Yale University majoring in literature, and her dissertation on the black female writer Toni Morrison also attracted considerable attention in her professional field. Although there have been several ups and downs after surviving the assassination case, many people think that if "Robbery of Pear Blossom" and "Silent Lamb" are continuous, maybe she is already the first actress to be reelected in Oscar.

It is because of these two movies. Making Foster completely a strong woman's spokesperson, coupled with her own independence, is a unique landscape in Hollywood. So even if she's not the standard pretty woman. The face also looked a bit square, but the temperament was indeed very attractive.

Of course, Natalie also fully met these conditions, so Campbell asked without hesitation. However, after receiving Adrian's answer, he was not particularly surprised. He just kept silent and raised his binoculars from time to time to hunt for prey. Adrian was not in a hurry and was patiently waiting beside him.

"Do you know why Judy Foster?" Campbell finally asked after a long time, and then gave the answer without waiting for Adrian to answer, "because she is gay."

Adrian opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. This is indeed a problem. In fact, when he was talking about those things, he accidentally or accidentally ignored an important condition.

The birth of a child star indicates that Hollywood's star-making mechanism is sound, and not every child star will eventually fall and then become everyone; a high education indicates that not all Hollywood stars are shallow and ignorant; it is not beautiful and full of temperament, indicating that Hollywood is not a person who looks good; By showing the weakness and strength of women through roles, female stars can show their image in line with the mainstream of society.

In addition, there is one more point, gossip and scandal can not be too much, in order to show the cleanliness of the stars. As a **** man, Judy Foster is extremely low-key in her private life, and paparazzi have never been omnipotent, not to mention she is still favored by the Academy of Film, one of the images of Hollywood, so even if countless people suspect she is gay, but always There is no firm evidence, so she has always been a representative of Hollywood's strong women.

Although Natalie's other conditions are met, basically everyone can determine her relationship with the director of Miracle after the release of "Out of Control". No matter how you cover up, Adrian is everyone's sight.

Of course, since Adrian chose to lobby Campbell for help, he must have considered all aspects, so he quickly opened his mouth again: "For Foster, this is indeed an advantage, but many times, Advantages will also become disadvantages. Do you know how many activities gLaaD has held in the past two years, right? Two states have allowed gays to marry, and more states will pass similar laws in the future, even without Brokeback Mountain. It will be, so more homosexuals will boldly disclose their sexuality to the public, and Foster will certainly be one of them. "

It has been said a long time ago that the United States as a whole is a conservative country. Do not look at the current popularity of homosexual organizations, and they are still marginalized in the entire social environment, but discrimination is not obvious. In this case, it doesn't matter that Foster keeps his low profile, but once his sexuality is disclosed, even if everyone knows, the negative impact will not be much lower than Natalie and the director of Miracle.

"Some things are actually very easy to solve ~ www.readwn.com ~ As a normal female star, it is impossible without a scandal, as long as you can control it within an acceptable range. Foster will be replaced sooner or later, Hollywood There are more than one template, so why isn't it possible for Natalie to fill the void? "Adrian continued.

But Campbell seemed to turn a deaf ear. He raised his shotgun and focused on it. Looking from a distance, a wild deer was burying his head from time to time between the two oak trees.

Regarding his attitude, Adrian didn't take his heart seriously. This is normal. After all, his requirements are indeed ridiculous, and the awards he received before put the film school under a lot of pressure. It's a pity that Adrian did not fight unprepared battles. He still had no killer.

"And," looking at the direction Campbell was aiming, he opened his mouth again. "Natalie is not without advantage. Besides my support, she has a place that no one can match."

Adrian tilted his lips again, revealing the cunning insight again: "She is from Jerusalem!"

boom! The gun rang, and the wild deer in the distance flew away in horror and failed.
