King of Hollywood

The woman in front of her looked like she was in her early thirties, with brownish black hair and glasses. She wasn't pretty, but she wore a shirt and jeans with a capable demeanor. And even though her brows were only slightly frowned, her expression was serious and resolute, as if she had to give her an explanation, which made her look very interesting.

"I remember you, you're from the editorial team..." Adrian tapped his head and began to look for her name, which looked familiar, so he probably wouldn't forget it.

"Tina Fey, Mr. Cowell," the other party refused to give him this opportunity, "I joined the editorial team of Bosworth Films in 1997, and after the group acquired Universal, most of the staff was transferred there. So I went to Universal and worked until now. From "Will \u0026 Grace" to "" to "Growing Troubles", I have been responsible for the series, and "Legal Blonde" is also written by me..."

"There are also episodes 9 to 12 of the fifth season of "*Urban", which were the episodes with the best ratings in that season." Adrian smiled and didn't take her preemption to heart, "You are a good one. My screenwriter, Ms. Faye."

"Thank you, Mr. Kewell, so you still recognize my ability?" Tina Fey's face looked a little better.

"Of course, what's the matter?" Adrian asked in a relaxed tone.

"Well, I got a job a few months ago to write a script for a campus youth comedy," Tina took a deep breath, "just like before, the person in charge handed over an outline, and then built around it. The plot. I spent almost five weeks. I did a lot of research and finally finished it and handed it over to the person in charge. Unexpectedly, the script returned to me a few days later was beyond recognition, and most of the plots I had carefully conceived were deleted. , replaced by something that seems inexplicable, even if the whole story is smooth."

Having said that, she paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and then continued: "Then I learned that this was done by two of my assistants based on the revised opinions. I couldn't accept it, but the person in charge told me. I must accept it." , or get someone else to write the script. This is too much, I can't watch this script get so bad, I have to find a way to get in touch with you, I hope I can talk to you. But I called your office Several calls were not granted, so ended up having to be held up this way, and I'm sorry, but I had to."

Adrian looked at Ivanka beside him when he heard the words. The female secretary flipped through the documents she had been holding all along, and then replied, "I arranged for Ms. Fei to meet with you on Monday morning next week."

"That's too late," Tina shook her head. "I've been notified today that preparations for this movie will start soon. This is my last chance."

"But. Now I have something to do." Adrian spread his hands helplessly.

"I beg you, Mr. Cowell, I won't waste too much of your time." Tina said in a pleading tone, her eyes were full of undisguised hope behind her glasses, and she could see that she was very serious about her script. care.

"Well." Adrian looked at the time in his hand, and then handed the briefcase in his hand to Ivanka, "There is a bar nearby, let's go there and talk, I think half an hour should be enough for you Come and explain your ideas.”

"Thank you, Mr. Cowell." Relieved, Tina said gratefully.

"You're welcome." Adrian smiled slightly. He had already guessed which movie it was, but it didn't matter, because he also recalled the relevant deeds of Tina Fey, a very talented female screenwriter, and also Has been an actress, but, isn't she supposed to work on "Saturday Night Live"?

"I wanted to go. A friend of mine worked there, and one day she said to me: Tina, you should really try, you can definitely give full play to your talents here. I was very tempted, but that day I happened to see, um, the recruitment advertisement of Bosworth Films." Speaking of this, Tina smiled a little embarrassedly, "Then I chose to apply for Bosworth Films. At that time, everyone knew , you are the ace screenwriter in Hollywood, many films and TV series with excellent box office and high ratings are connected with you, I admired you very much at that time, Ed."

"Thank you." Adrian raised his glass and smiled.

The sun hadn't set yet, and there were relatively few people in the bar. It was a good time to chat, so he could easily draw out his previous experiences from her.

"That's how I entered the editorial team of Miracle Director—that's what they called us, and then..." Tina, who was somewhat nostalgic, showed a smile, and then she came to her senses, "Oh, sorry, Ed, we We shouldn't be talking about this, where are we...? By the way, the fight between the girls is a little easier. I recalled my life in high school, just because of the name Tina, it was really miserable to be excluded .”

She lowered her head and adjusted her emotions while chattering, seeming a little embarrassed.

"Yes, I know, I roughly understand what you mean, Tina." Adrian patted her hand, "But you have to understand, this is a youth comedy movie, it doesn't need to carry so much meaning, Even if these are hidden in the plot and lines. Its connotation is not even as good as "Legally Blonde", it just roughly shows the scheming among high school girls, and then encourages the audience with laughter, unlike other school comedies No difference. That's why I'm going to pick out your plots and have them rework them, even though they're fun."

Tina couldn't help showing a look of disappointment. What could be a greater blow than not being able to keep the fruits of her labor after spending countless words? But she suddenly changed her face again.

"You mean...you mean..." She looked at him and stammered, "This script...is your idea, and all the revisions...are also your ideas?"

"Yes." Adrian nodded.

Tina's face flushed immediately, and her chest began to heave violently. His lips trembled a little too. Obviously, this made her very embarrassed. When she was trying to persuade someone who could stop all of this for her script, it was her former idol who did not make changes and give up the decision.

"Don't get excited, Tina," Adrian grabbed her hand and said in a soothing tone, "I know this is your hard work, and I also know how much effort you have put into this script. In fact, through just now conversation, I realize that part of your plot can be kept, just in a different way."

"Can you keep it?" Tina asked subconsciously.

"Yes, for example, we can leave it blank and let the audience guess for themselves about what happened to the pamphlet full of bad words. It doesn't matter if they don't notice it, and there is no specific answer if they notice it. They can use their own feelings Complete the following things in my mind." Adrian said, "I guess the plot where the heroine tells the truth at the beginning should be from "Legally Blonde" Ellie encourages her Japanese descendants It evolved from a breakup between a friend and her boyfriend, right?"

"Hmm...about the same." Tina replied somewhat stammeringly.

Adrian smiled slightly: "Look, it's so simple, some plot changes can be kept. I won't list them one by one. What I want to say is that you are outstanding, Tina, so I hope you can continue to be responsible To write this script, to write it the way I want it to be. And to untangle it into one cohesive story."

"But..." The girl still hesitated.

"Do you know what you lack now, Tina?" Adrian said sincerely, "You need to learn to adapt to the theme of the script, you are really good, the episodes of the fifth season of "*City" have proved But if you limit yourself too much, then the types of scripts you can write will be less and less. I don’t agree with screenwriters involving too many types, but too few and too narrow will not work. I think you can. Do it."

"Okay, I see," Tina sighed after a long silence. "Thank you, Ed, for your advice."

"No need to do that, I'm just very optimistic about you, Tina," Adrian smiled, "You should know that there is a TV series about women being planned by the editorial team. After "*City" is over, we need a A TV series with weight in this aspect, I have talked with you for so long just now, and with your achievements in "*City", I think you are very suitable to be the screenwriter of that TV series, of course, the premise is that you want to broaden your horizons vision."

"You mean..." Tina's eyes lit up.

"Yes, that's the one." Adrian nodded.

"Thank you, Ed, thank you very much." After taking a deep breath, she thanked again, her tone was very sincere, and she looked at him without blinking, with an indescribable taste.

After looking at him like this for a long time, Tina stood up in surprise, her face flushed, and she packed up in a panic: "Then, I'll go back, and I will revise it as soon as possible to make the script more complete. "

"Okay," Adrian stood up, "I'll take you back."

"I have a car." Tina refused.

"But you said before that you came here by taxi." Adrian reminded.

"Well... this..." Tina turned her head away, a little afraid to look at him.

"It's okay, I don't think it will be too long." Adrian insisted.

"Okay, thank you, Ed." Tina immediately agreed, and then—

In the corner of the small parking lot, the silver-gray Bentley was shaking slightly. In the driver's seat of the car, a disheveled Tina Fey was riding up and down on Adrian's body, moaning constantly. The reverberation in the car, the fascinated eyes, the flushed skin and the forehead covered with fine beads of sweat are showing her excitement.

After going up and down several times quickly, with a long moan, Tina finally lied on Adrian's body, panting heavily, and Adrian let out a breath of relief, and then began to kiss her tenderly.

"I didn't expect that one day I would become like this." After a short rest, Tina looked up at Adrian and said with some annoyance.

"Oh?" Adrian was puzzled, "What did it become?"

"I never date a bad guy, that's a rule I made for myself." Tina whispered on his chest, even though she was still walking around her body with his hand.

Adrian couldn't help frowning: "It turns out that I have such a bad impression in your eyes."

"Of course not." Tina laughed, "but almost everyone in the company knows that you are a playboy and that you have slept with many women, but no one dares to say so."

She said as she stood up, put her hands on his chest, and stared at his face: "But I'm still done by you playboy, you are... a man who is very good at coaxing women, a very attractive man , no wonder..."

follow. Thinking of something, Tina stopped, her face immediately became unattractive, and she finally covered her face and moaned sadly.

"Hey, what's the matter?" Adrian wrapped his arms around her waist in confusion.

"Damn, hell," Tina moaned, "I... I have a fiancé, I'm... engaged."

This news surprised Adrian. But then he hugged her tighter, and kissed her face that was dodging a bit: "I'm sorry, Tina, it was my fault, I shouldn't be the first... But since it has already happened, let Treat it as an accident. That's how people are, once they feel it, it's easy to get carried away and do things that shouldn't be done. So, we are all right. Just treat it as an accident and forget about it. "

Tina sighed deeply, crawled on top of him and didn't speak, but she was obviously much better.

Maybe," she said faintly, "maybe it can be regarded as a short memory. But a wonderful memory. "

"Then, let me make this memory more profound." Adrian whispered in her ear, and moved his hands accordingly.

"No... wait, Ed..." Tina wanted to stop her, but she quickly responded to his provocation.

"You are such a..." the girl gasped, and finally kissed him passionately again. When they fought again, her reaction was much stronger than before. As for the reason...

To be honest, Tina is not the best in terms of appearance or figure, but Adrian still tasted her in his car. Without him, Tina Fei has a very good temperament. He has a preference for temperamental women, just like Blanchett and Gwyneth, they are not very beautiful, but their temperament is quite good, whether they show their temperament on the bed, or It is very pleasant for him to destroy their temperament on the bed.

So when you feel the position, it is a matter of course to taste this temperament girl in the car. Whatever you want, you can get a good screenwriter, why not do it?

You know, in the previous life, Tina Fey was one of the lead writers of the ace show "Saturday Night Live". Not only did she earn enough popularity from "Saturday Night Live", but she also played the leading role in "30 Rock", The Emmy Awards also won soft hands. What's interesting is that she wrote the script of "Mean Girls" in her previous life, and now she is also the screenwriter of this script. I have to say that fate is really interesting.

However, without the accumulation in "Saturday Night Live", and now "Mean Girls" has no novels to refer to, it is inevitable that Tina will have problems. Moreover, although she has served as the screenwriter of popular movies and TV series such as "Legally Blonde" and "*City", relatively speaking, her popularity is not high, and she has not yet reached the point of being alone.

But she is indeed talented, Adrian confirmed this through the conversation at the bar, so he considered giving her the production of a TV series he was preparing, anyway, she also wrote the script for "*City", similar themes Should be able to grasp. This TV series is reserved for others. Naturally, it needs to be better produced. Adrian can hand over TV series such as "Lost" to other TV stations without hesitation in order to make a deal. Anyway, the same theme , There are still many popular TV series, but phenomenal TV series must be reserved for yourself.

If Tina does a good job, Adrian wouldn't mind promoting her to producer, which would be...compensation, after all, "30 Rock" was produced on the background of "Saturday Night Live", even if this It can be ignored. There is no rule that production companies can’t use this to produce comedy TV series. The big deal is not to explain it in the TV series. But without the work experience in "Saturday Night Live", can Tina still write scripts and perform well?

Well, regardless of that, with the arrival of mid-August, "X-Men 2" is finally in theaters.

The grand premiere is definitely a must, because with "Spiderman" and "Blade Runner" leading the charge, the "X-Men" series is more valuable than the previous life, so it is overtime after the first release The second part was produced and arranged to be released in this year's summer vacation, and it also contacted nearly 4,000 theaters in North America.

During this process, Sony made a lot of effort. As a supplement to taking away the copyright of Spider-Man, Adrian generously gave up the copyright of some X-Men characters, and even Wolverine was placed in the shared position. Come on, Sony-Columbia is naturally willing to work hard.

Therefore, on the day of the premiere, it was quite lively. In addition to the director, producers and actors of the film crew, many celebrities came to join in. On the red carpet outside the theater, there were movie fans, comic fans, reporters and large posters.

"It's like a carnival, and everyone is having fun." At the entrance of the theater, watching the flashing lights outside, listening to the cheers of fans and the various questions from reporters, Adrian said Said to the white man standing next to him, who looked almost forty.

"So I like movies adapted from comics." The other party said with a smile, "Of course, I also like comics adapted from movies and TV dramas."

"That's true, at least in the comics, Buffy is much stronger." Adrian laughed.

The man next to him is none other than Joss Whedon, the producer of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer". He is currently directing "The Hulk" for Fox because of Adrian's recommendation. (to be continued)
