King of Hollywood

However, since it involves homosexuality, it is inevitable that some extreme conservatives will attack the film, but this wave will soon be submerged in the mainstream applause. Therefore, "Philadelphia Story" was screened in 1,200 theaters in the first week On the basis of the box office, it got more than 14 million U.S. dollars at the box office. In this fierce schedule, it also occupied the tenth place on the North American box office list, which is a pretty good start.

"It's a good momentum, and it should be maintained, but "Schindler's List" is not relaxing." Adrian said to Lavern, leaning on the back of the chair with his legs crossed, flipping through relevant documents.

"I've already contacted several Jewish associations, and invited their directors to watch the trial screening, which has been well received." Laverne nodded.

"Very good, but also note that there are many factions among the Jews." Adrian reminded.

"I know, they helped a lot." Lavern expressed his understanding, and they didn't need to know who they were.

Adrian smiled and was about to say something when Charlize came in after knocking on the door.

"They're already waiting for you, Ed." Although she spoke expressionlessly, she was wearing a standard office girl's uniform, and her slender legs in black transparent stockings were especially alluring.

Adrian laughed secretly in his heart, remembering the fleeting look in Charlize's angry eyes when he came down to have breakfast with Sarah who had packed up that morning. Because Sarah didn't have any suitable clothes, she was still dressed the night before. Although the two didn't have a "deeper" communication, the passion in the bathroom made Sarah's face continue to be bloodshot and couldn't dissipate. Coupled with the girl's unique greenness, radiant and seductive at the same time, it's no wonder Charlize is jealous.

Yes, that's the word, Charlize spends much more time with Adrian now than other women, and Adrian already regards her as something in his pocket, so how can he not know what is going on in her heart? .

"Okay, I'll go right away." Adrian stood up and smiled at his female secretary, but unfortunately, the latter looked at her with eyes, nose, nose, nose and heart, as if she didn't see him at all. Adrian had no choice but to shrug, and then gestured to Lavern: "You too, Laver."

Although there was no "in-depth" communication with Sarah, the passion in the bathroom was quite ecstasy. The girl's soft hands were so tactile that he almost turned around and wanted her. Of course, Adrian endured it in the end, now is not a good time, otherwise he had eaten her to the bone last night.

What Adrian wants is not a one-night pleasure. As I said before, some women are just for fun, such as Barrymore or Cameron; but some women are worthy of being his collection, such as Monica and Julia . Sarah naturally belongs to the latter, so he doesn't want to be too urgent. He has developed to this point and just needs to take a small step forward, just like Charlize.

Thinking of this, Adrian couldn't help but glanced at Charlize, and the girl walked beside him with a straight body, looking straight ahead. She is indeed very smart and good at learning. In her previous life, she was a woman who knew what she wanted, and she made up her mind that she would never look back. Deliberately pretending to be ugly and winning the Oscar for Best Actress is the best example.

Although Adrian has now become his personal assistant and secretary because of Adrian's small wings, he still has the abilities he should have. She is very keen and good at checking for gaps, so Adrian often jokes that she can't imagine what it would be like without her.

However, she is still very young now, so it is inevitable that she will make some little awkwardness and entanglement with duplicity, and Adrian doesn't take it to heart. Charlize with such a character is the one he likes. It's just that how to keep her and stay by his side is not an easy task, after all, she is different from Sarah and Monica.

After a few steps to the meeting room, Adrian calmed down and adjusted his clothes before pushing the door in.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting, Laverne and I have something to delay." Adrian smiled and stretched out his hand to the handsome boy and his beautiful wife in front of him.

"It's okay, we just arrived." Tom Cruise showed his iconic bright smile, but in Adrian's eyes, it looked a little fake, not as good as Nicole Kidman's smile.

"I've always heard that you have the title of a workaholic, but now I have an intuitive impression." After the two parties sat down on both sides of the long table, Cruise said with a smile, "I just came back from Europe, and you We’re about to start preparing for a new movie.”

"No, I just want to talk about the specific content, if it disturbs your arrangement..."

"It's okay, it's okay," Cruise shook his head and said "It's okay" twice, his smile didn't look like a fake, "I like this script, really, I like it better than "Interview with the Vampire", so continue I came as soon as I got the agent's call."

"Thank you." Adrian smiled slightly.

This script is naturally "Mission: Impossible". Cruise has a special love for this kind of handsome and cool movies. Although he is more eager to win Oscar's affirmation, he is also aware of his handsome appearance after several failures. The appearance is not liked by those old antiques in the film academy, so I temporarily gave up this plan to find another script that can show my own characteristics.

Just then Adrian sent an invitation. Although he didn't like the so-called "miracle director" very much, he still accepted the role of Lester. To be honest, this adaptation of Anne Rice's novel is not bad, but then Adrian gave him a huge surprise. The other party thought of "Mission Impossible" on the set because of his wife Nicole. Although the idea of ​​changing a TV series into a movie aroused his interest, he didn't take it too seriously. This situation continued until the script of "Mission: Impossible" and a few drafts of the setting were delivered to his hands.

At that time, Cruise was publishing the location of "Vampire's Exterior" in Paris. After reading it for the first time, he had a feeling that he was Ethan Hunt, a special agent. He couldn't explain this feeling, but he wanted this role very much. . Especially after seeing those drafts, this idea became even stronger, so when his agent told him that Bosworth Films wanted to invite him to talk about the movie, he did not hesitate to I agreed.

"...In short, except for the exterior scenes in Budapest and the UK, we plan to complete most of the shots in the studio, such as the last action scene in the tunnel." Speaking of this, Lavern raised his head and said The introduction is over.

"Thank you, Laverne." Cruise nodded with a smile, "I would also like to play this role..."

Speaking of this, he looked at his wife with some hesitation, and Nicole immediately gave him a requesting look in a covert manner.

"...Nicole is willing to play with me too." Cruise finally said this after a pause for a few seconds, which made Nicole secretly relieved, but she immediately caught the subtle look in her husband's eyes , I was startled when I thought of something in my heart, and when I was about to speak, Cruise said it first: "But, Ed, can you give me the operation of this script?"

The air in the meeting room suddenly stagnated, and Lavern immediately looked at Adrian. Even Charlize, who had been burying her head in the record, couldn't help raising her head, and Nicole simply covered her forehead.

"You know, I also have a production company." Cruise seemed to have noticed nothing, still smiling, "I like this script very much, and I want to operate it myself."

Adrian touched his chin and looked at Cruise noncommittally, as if he didn't hear what he said. Cruise was not in a hurry, and leaned back on the chair leisurely, tapping his fingers on the armrest from time to time.

After a while, Adrian suddenly smiled: "I can promise you, Tommy, I can hand over this script to you to operate. I believe you will be an excellent producer, but the specific terms need to be negotiated."

Cruise couldn't help being taken aback. He didn't expect Adrian to agree so readily, but after all, he was a person who had seen many storms. He soon showed a bright smile again: "Really?"

"Of course," Adrian nodded, "but don't forget I have one more sentence."

"Yes, I heard it." Cruise laughed, "I'll have my agent come over and have a detailed discussion with you right away."

Adrian also laughed, Lavern maintained a serious look without moving his expression, Charlize looked at Adrian with strange eyes, and Nicole covered her forehead in the same way.

"Do you know what you're doing, Tommy?" After coming out of the conference room, Nicole asked her husband in a low voice, "Didn't Riley tell you, it's best not to mention such things "

"But the problem is that not only did I mention it, but he also agreed." Cruise said triumphantly. He has never liked Adrian very much. I don't know why, but it's just a feeling anyway. But he likes the secret agent script very much, so he wants to make it by himself.

But agent Riley told him that this is almost impossible. The script is in the hands of Adrian. He is the director and producer himself and has his own film company, so it is impossible to hand it over to others for production. Cruise is not qualified to mention this condition at all, at worst, the other party needs to change actors.

Cruise was naturally not reconciled, so he still raised it today. Unexpectedly, Adrian agreed to him immediately, and he didn't care if there were any problems in it when he was excited.

"But, Tommy, you need to know..." Nicole frowned and wanted to say something, but Cruise interrupted her impatiently: "Don't make irresponsible remarks about my decision, Nicole"

Nicole suffocated and couldn't say anything immediately, and Cruise also noticed that his tone was not very good, so he immediately hugged his wife with a smile: "Okay, don't worry about it so much, think about where we are going Let's celebrate, it's rare for us to have roles in the same movie, but this time you're playing someone else's wife."

Nicole, who wanted to say something else, smiled wryly in her heart, sighed and shook her head slightly at her husband.
