King of Hollywood

Chapter 138 Probing

"Actually, in my opinion, the key to a movie's success lies in the director's level of storytelling. The first thing audiences think of when they come to the movie theater is to relax, not to explore some philosophy of life or the like, otherwise they will I will go to those small theaters that specialize in showcasing literary films." Among the three or four people standing together, a young man who took the lead said eloquently.

"It sounds like you don't like literary movies?" asked the male interface about fifty years old standing on his left.

"I can't say I don't like it, but I prefer to tell stories, and stories are the foundation of movies." The young man shrugged.

"That's true, it can be seen from "Pulp Fiction." The man on the right who looks a few years older than him nodded, "It's a brand new way of telling stories, no wonder people have been talking about it for a while It is said that this movie will probably leave a heavy mark in the history of movies."

Up to now, "Pulp Fiction" has been released for almost 8 weeks. Although it was squeezed out of the top spot by "Batman Returns" in the second week, the box office increased moderately, but the degree of stability is better than any other. films of the same period. Even though there are only 800 theaters showing this week, according to professional estimates, the weekend box office will still be 10 or even 15 million.

You know, the cost of "Pulp Fiction" is only about 10 million including the promotional expenses, and the total box office in North America has already exceeded 50 million, which is already a pure profit. 100 million.

As a result, several protagonists have won the favor of many people, especially Travolta, who can be said to have gained both fame and fortune. Not only did he get rid of the old hat, but he also made a lot of money because of the sharing contract.

Of course, when Adrian was attacked in the UK, the American media had nothing to say and had to talk about "Pulp Fiction" repeatedly, but the quality of the movie itself is always the key to attracting attention. No wonder Brad? Cybernine - also the director of "Pokemon" - would make such a sigh of envy.

"Then why did you shoot a movie full of British literary atmosphere?" Another middle-aged man standing next to Cyberning asked curiously. He is the producer of "Ghost Horse Elf" Nate Torrance.

"You forgot, I just said, Nate," Adrian said with a smile, "I like to tell stories, as long as I think this story is worth my time to tell, then I will find a way to make it, which is the same as The style of the movie is irrelevant."

"Sorry, I forgot." The other party apologized immediately.

"It's okay," Adrian shrugged, with a bit of self-mockery in his tone, "Many people have asked me this at today's premiere, and I'm used to it."

The three days around suddenly burst into laughter.

"I believe "Ghost and Pony" will be a good family movie," Adrian then changed the subject, "I sometimes watch Disney Channel shows, such as the Mickey Mouse Club, is that a name, Ai? Rick?"

That last sentence he said to his left, Eric Cahill, the Disney executive who had come over to talk to him about the production of Pokemon.

"Your memory is pretty good, Ed." Eric nodded.

"It's not bad to see those cute children singing and dancing," Adrian shrugged, and then asked, thinking of something: "However, I heard that you seem to be planning to cancel this show?"

"Yes, you know, except for a few excellent programs, the decline in ratings is an unavoidable problem for all programs. In the end, it should be over, although we are still working hard." Eric sighed, and finally that Words are very weak.

"That's such a pity." Adrian sighed and didn't go on. If the Mickey Mouse Club really revived because of his words, it would be not so good.

"Sorry, gentlemen, I'm sorry." He glanced around, found his target, and then apologized and left.

Adrian walked to the edge of the wall first, looked around before walking to the corner, and then stood in front of the girl in a white dress: "Hey, Sarah, why are you staying here alone?"

The girl who lowered her head and thought about something raised her head with a surprised expression, and after seeing who it was, she was relieved, and a smile appeared on her oval-shaped face: "Hello, Mr. Adrian... ...Ed."

"At last you still remember," Adrian said with a smile, "Of course, it would be better if there was no previous pause."

Sarah scratched her face embarrassingly, as if she didn't know what to say.

"By the way, didn't your mother accompany you?" Seeing her like this, Adrian changed the subject.

"Disney has arranged for a car pick-up, and I can handle it myself," Sarah shrugged, with a serious look on her face that felt like a little adult, "I'm not a child anymore, I can take care of myself."

"Well, you are not a child anymore, you can take care of yourself," Adrian shook his head with a smile, and said after Sarah cast an unhappy look: "Well, I believe your mother... will definitely be very happy. Happy."

"She will." Sarah was a little dazed when she thought of something, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but she quickly realized what the scene was, and smiled at Adrian in a panic: "Sorry, Ai Germany."

"It's okay," Adrian waved his hand generously, "as long as you don't do this while performing."

"Of course not." Sarah immediately puffed her chest out, feeling as if she was taking credit for it. "I have always tried my best to perform, and I have never been NG because of distraction."

"It can be seen that you are very serious. Although I have only seen the trailer, I believe that your performance in it must be very eye-catching." Adrian said as he stretched out his hand as if he wanted to touch her head like before, but On the way, he realized something, and after swaying it, he put it on his head in embarrassment.

Sarah also noticed his movement, but she kept standing there without moving. When Adrian retracted her hand, a hint of disappointment that she didn't even notice flashed in her eyes.

Because of this action, the two couldn't help but fell silent, and the atmosphere between them became a little awkward. Fortunately, Kate walked over from the crowd at this time: "Hey, Ed, so you are here. Oh, hello, Sarah, it's great to see you again."

"Walking around, did you gain anything?" After the two of them greeted, Adrian looked at Kate. Feeling slightly regretful, he originally invited Monica to attend the premiere, but she didn't know if she sensed his intentions or something, and finally declined the invitation. Adrian didn't take it to heart either, so take your time.

"Not bad, help you catch this guy here." Kate said with a smile and moved away, and Dennis immediately appeared in front of Adrian: "Hi, Ed, what can I do for you?"

"Ha, Dan, you should have a good time recently, right?" Adrian said in a teasing tone.

"This...haha...not bad." Dennis smiled dryly.

A few days ago, Adrian called him when he was still in London. Because of the time difference, the daytime in London is basically equal to the nighttime in Los Angeles. Adrian obviously heard a woman's voice, and she was very charming. , Dennis's voice also seemed to be excited, so he hung up without saying a few words.

Then two days ago, a tabloid reporter quoted a source who claimed that Dennis and Winona had dinner at a restaurant in Orange County, were very intimate, and finally left together. Although there were no photos, and Dennis and Winona did not respond to this, they still became the headlines of various gossip newspapers. After all, two months ago, Depp and Winona vowed that they would not break up.

Adrian originally wanted to ask what was going on between them now, since they had all been exposed a little, it was time to make a decision. But after seeing the gloomy expression on Dennis's face, he returned to the topic: "Remember what I told you at the film festival before, there is now a male lead in a romantic comedy movie, are you interested?" ?”

"Romantic comedy?" Dennis was slightly surprised.

"Yes, and it's still British style." Adrian said with a smile.

Dennis's surprise grew stronger, but he nodded quickly: "No problem, as long as you need."

"Very well, then it's settled," Adrian patted him on the shoulder, "Although the script has not been completed, I can tell you that this is a character with a very sloppy life. You can take time to think about Ying How to express the style of debauchery."

"Wandering?" When he uttered the word, Dennis couldn't help but look at Adrian, but his face brightened immediately: "I see."

"That's it." Adrian said and glanced at the two ladies who were talking next to him. Sarah echoed Kate one after another, obviously listening to them with her ears up.

He chuckled softly in his heart, looked around and greeted immediately: "Kate, Sarah, let's go into the screening room, the premiere is about to begin."

The four of them walked to the screening room together. When they were approaching the door, Adrian thought of something and asked the girl next to him: "By the way, Sarah, do you have any plans for work recently?"

Sarah seemed a little taken aback, but she concealed it so well that no one could see it except Adrian.

"Not yet, what's the matter?" She turned her head and said in a calm tone.

"Director James Cameron and I are cooperating on a film. I think you can try the role of a daughter." Adrian said as he walked, "But the script has not been completed, and it may not start until the end of the year. Preparations. And, because Cameron is in charge this time, you have to audition."

As he spoke, he looked into the girl's eyes: "Would you like to try, Sarah?"

Sarah pursed her lips, hesitated for a few seconds and then nodded: "I do." ()
