Chapter 225 Prospect Planning and Premiere

This is indeed a beautiful city and one of the best beaches in the world, which is very suitable for vacation. The French are indeed very good at enjoying it and will arrange for the film festival to be held here.

Standing at the entrance of the balcony, Adrian shook his wine glass and looked at the scenery outside, saying, the red liquid swaying back and forth in the glass, as leisurely as he was now.

Yes, it's beautiful, this is my first time in Cannes I mean as an actor.

Naomi sat not far from him and also held a wine glass, while Nicole, who sat farther away, didn't say anything. She raised her legs and savored the red wine in her hand, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.

It will be a common thing from now on, dear Nami.

Adrian turned his head and smiled slightly. Soon you will find that it is not much different from coming here as an actor and coming here as a tourist. Even more free than coming here as an actor.

Speaking of this, he glanced at Nicole inadvertently, but unfortunately the other party was still tasting the wine in his hand. Even if he used a more intimate title to Naomi, it would not change this.

I fully believe this. Whenever I leave the hotel these days, I will be surrounded by reporters and I can only stroll around for a few laps.

Naomi sighed, looking into the distance through the balcony, tapping her fingers on her face.

Don't worry, the film festival opened yesterday, and "Mulholland Road" will premiere tonight. In a few days, it will slowly become lively here. When you go out, even if there are reporters following you, there will not be as many as you are now.

Adrian said comfortingly, then thought of something and walked to Naomi to sit down: By the way, Naomi, have you analyzed yourself?What roles are you good at, which roles are you not good at, and how to play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses?

Naomi thought about it carefully, then shrugged helplessly: You know, since I started acting, the roles have almost been small supporting roles with little weight, so how could I do this kind of analysis?

OK, then I have two ideas for your reference now.

Adrian immediately said, the first one is similar to most actresses, the romantic comedy route, you are so beautiful and charming, so weak and lovely, and have very good acting skills. I believe you can use the same method to take a different path, and I happen to have such a role here now.

He said as he reached out to lift Naomi's chin and gently stroked his beautiful face. Although his movements were frivolous, his expression was very serious. Naomi couldn't help but lower his head and dared not look at him.

And the other.

Adrian continued, and it was a thriller route. You know, "Mulholland Road" is a crime, suspense, and thriller movie in terms of classification. Since you have shown quite good acting skills in movies with this kind of theme, it is also a good choice to continue to expand your advantages, and there are also such roles here.

Nicole, who was a little far away, finally raised her head, just glanced at this side and then quickly turned to the other side, but her slight lip-biting action did not escape Adrian's eyes.

What a difficult choice.Naomi sighed after thinking about it, but her eyes were flowing and she seemed to have made a choice. I had no experience after all.

It doesn't matter, you have enough time to think and analyze.

Adrian smiled and a hint of pride suddenly appeared on his face. Even if the choice is wrong, I can let you do it again.

Naomi chuckled softly, but her head lowered because of this. After a while, she raised her again: So what about Nicole?What did you arrange for her?

Although I have only played threesomes once so far and it is for the filming of "Mulholland Road", Nicole's situation has been guessed by Naomi, so there is no need to worry about anything when asking. Anyway, the other party should be clear about his own affairs, and there is nothing to be ashamed of. Besides...

Smart woman.

Adrian praised in his heart. No wonder he had a choice but still wanted to say that. He immediately took advantage of this topic and looked at Nicole: You should have read that script, Nicole, how about it?

A single mother lived in the manor with two children, and then recruited several strange servants. Weird and terrible things happened one after another at home, as if ghosts were invading, but in the end they found that it was her and her children who died.

Nicole turned her head, briefly explained the content of the script a little coldly, and shrugged, really not knowing it was the idea of ​​that 'genius'.

Genius The word pronunciation is sharp, obviously meaning the opposite, but Adrian replied without hesitation: Thank you, this is my idea.

This is also a thriller movie, right?Naomi, who heard the content clearly, asked immediately.

Yes, although Nicole also made some good movies before this, among these movies, she only has one label, that is, the vase!

Adrian said, standing up and walking behind Nicole, putting his hands on her shoulders, Nicole put down the glass and did not move any more, looking very calm.

Just like you, Nami, who plays guest appearances in many TV series and movies, is a vase that is not valued, but for some reasons, Nicole has a relatively high starting point.

Adrian continued, because you are all too beautiful, so beautiful that people want to possess, so beautiful that they ignore the others, and no one is willing to inspire your heart, so there is the embarrassing situation now.

A slight tremor came from his hands, and Naomi was also a little confused when he heard it. Although Adrian's words were explicit, he also said what they really wanted.

So I arranged this movie for Nicole. Generally speaking, thriller movies can easily highlight the actor's acting skills. The fearful look can form a sharp contrast with the usual look. As long as this fear and fear look credible, it will gain a very good reputation.Of course, the same is true, if you use it too much, it will easily cause your performance to collapse, and it depends on the actor's grasp.If the actor wants to grasp this degree as much as possible, in addition to the director's explanation, the actor's own speculation and the state of filming, the degree of fit between the actor and the role is also very important. The role I prepared is very fit with Nicole.

Adrian said as he sat down next to Nicole and put his arms around her shoulder.

Nami, the feeling you gave me at the beginning was that I needed care, so I had the character in "Mulholland Road".And Nicole, what impressed me the most was the cold feeling, her face was pale and a little nervous, and she had a pathological beauty, so she had this role now.

Adrian said with a smile.

He finally stopped and the room suddenly became quiet. Naomi and Nicole both began to feel a little dazed. After a long time, Nicole's voice sounded again: This is what I give you?

Although she tried her best to maintain the coldness in her tone, the chaos was still obvious.

This is the case for the time being, but I believe that as time goes by, this impression will slowly change, right?

Adrian laughed, and his hand that was holding on his shoulders slid down, and finally passed through his armpit and held it under his breast.

Nicole turned her head and looked at Adrian with her blue eyes. Her complex and somewhat dazed look flashed, and then she stood up: I want to go back and clean up and prepare for the evening premiere.

As she said that, she strode out of the suite. Adrian gave Naomi an apology look. After the other party returned a look of no need to worry, he immediately stood up and followed Nicole and went out.

Watching the two leave the suite, Naomi sighed softly, sat silently on the chair for a while before standing up and pouring another glass of red wine for herself.

Shaking twice and sipped again, staring at the red liquid in the cup for a while, then smiling and shook his head, then putting his mind on the premiere of the evening, which was the first time the movie she starred in was premiered on an international occasion.

You seem a little angry?Following Nicole to her suite, Adrian asked immediately.

Although he booked three suites, Naomi basically lives with Adrian and will avoid him when someone has something to do.

Nicole basically stayed in her room and didn't meet the two unless Adrian invited her.

No, I just... think the script you gave me is not easy to evaluate.

Nicole shook her head. She wanted to refuse him to go in. Last night, Adrian wanted to come over and talk to her, but after she refused, she went back.

But the words were not spoken, especially the way Naomin opened the door after she arrived at Adrian today.

In fact, the technique of this script is very similar to a movie a few years ago.

Adrian chuckled, pulled her into his arms and sat on the sofa bench. Now there were only the two of them, so he was naturally even more bold.

Nicole struggled slightly, but finally fell into his arms obediently: Is that right?

Of course, you should remember the story of a psychologist and a little boy.

Adrian said promptly, and when Nicole was about to say the name, he said it first: Yes, that's right, "The Sixth Sense" by Bruce Willis and Silver Phoenix is ​​also my idea. Don't you believe my eyes yet?Moreover, there are many logical loopholes in that story, but the answer to the mystery revealed in the end is too shocking, making people ignore the logical loopholes. This script has that story as a reference and will be made more perfect.

As he said that, he lowered his head and kissed her face gently, and then laughed again: Actually, you don’t have to be angry. I said, this is the impression you gave me in the past, and the impression is always changing.

Yeah?Nicole, who had just revealed a little longing, sneered and sat up, but the first impression was also very important, right?

She swept the hair in her ears with a proud tone, and what she pointed to was self-evident. Adrian smiled with a good temper, then sat down again, leaned in front of her and stared at her beautiful eyes: Yes, I still remember the situation when you handed the Palm to me a few years ago. I still remember you wearing a black evening dress, tall figure, and the charming face when you almost fell down when you stepped down and I grabbed your arm. The touch was also always wandering in my heart.Probably since then, I have the idea of ​​taking you for myself.

Nicole showed a surprise for the first time in a few days, and looked at Adrian steadily and didn't know what to say, and his momentum was completely suppressed by the other party.

Wait and see, Nicole, you will be mine sooner or later, from beginning to end, from inside to outside, it is all me.Adrian said with a smile, as if announcing something.

After a long time, his chest fluctuated for several consecutive times, and Nicole gritted his teeth and said: I am already yours now. Even if you want me to blow the trumpet for you now, I will not refuse, right?

********************

As night fell and lights began to rise, there were quite a few reporters outside the Paros Theater, covered with red carpets, and they were whispering and looking to the end of the street, obviously waiting for someone.

Soon, many guests with identities started to enter the red carpet. Although many reporters asked questions to take photos, it can be seen from their slightly absent-minded expression that they were not the ones they were waiting for until the two cars appeared in people's sight.

Two silver Rolls-Royces, which are said to be airlifted by private jets, needless to say who is the one who comes here.

Mr. Adrian, why did you choose to attend the festival with Mulholland Road instead of several other films produced last year?

Adrian just got off the car and was surrounded by these questions. He has never left the hotel except for attending the opening ceremony in the past few days, so he naturally attracted a lot of attention. Nicole and Naomi who got off from another car did not receive such treatment. Although they didn't go out many times these days, they answered questions a lot.

It's very simple. This movie was made temporarily, with not much investment, only 15 million yuan. The production cycle is very short and it is also experimental, so I used it to participate in the Cannes Film Festival.

Adrian answered very readily this time, and at the same time he clarified certain matters without any trace.

For example, the rumored investment was only a few hundred thousand, which is really a joke. Although Nicole is not worth a lot now, she has played a supporting role in "Batman Forever", and she still has a pay of three to four million. Although Naomi is similar to a newcomer, Adrian still gave her $500,000 in pay. After Naomi received the pay, she returned the rent she borrowed and the expenses she used to settle the landlord's wife to Adrian.

With all the expenses, how could it be like "Two Big Smoke Bowls" with only a few hundred thousand investments?

There are rumors that your movie is awkward and difficult to understand. How do you evaluate it?A reporter asked ambiguously.

Just go and have a look.Adrian also gave a slick answer.

I heard that the film was inspired by Ms. Naomi Watts, is that true, Mr. Adrian?Questions one by one.

This speech was both correct and incorrect. The concept of this movie had been around for a long time, but I always felt that something was missing, so I didn't take it until... Adrian said that after Nicole and Naomi, who were following him, walked over, stood in the middle and reached out to hug the waists of the two beautiful girls. Until he met Naomi, she gave me a lot of inspiration to make me enrich the script, and then through her, Nicole was invited again. Their performances were excellent, and the film would be incomplete without them.

This posture of holding the left and right immediately attracted a burst of crazy flash. It is not uncommon for directors to hug the heroine and supporting actress in the movie at the same time to accept photos, but the question is who is the person he is hugging?!

Although the public did not see the loud name clearly, the people in the circle could not understand it very well. So if the reporters missed this opportunity, it would be better for them to buy a piece of bread and hit him to death.

This lasted for more than ten seconds. Adrian immediately let go of the two ladies and walked into the theater to take pictures. It was one thing, and it was another thing to hug them all the way in. The crackling sound continued to ring for a long time before stopping. The reporters realized that it was impossible to ask questions.

However, even if you can't ask the questions, it should be worth it. Anyway, Adrian will definitely stay in Cannes before the closing, so don't worry about not being able to catch him.

What's more, there seems to be something to take before my eyes. Nicole and Naomi walked towards the theater hand in hand, and their intimacy seemed to be a little beyond the limits of friends.

Finally entering the theater, Adrian sighed softly in his heart and immediately started to greet people he knew and didn't know. Luc Besson and Jean Renault both came to attend the premiere, so he naturally had to greet him. In addition, there were producers, film dealers, directors or actors from various countries, plus people from their own company, and there were many of these guests.

What's more, there are film critics and ordinary audiences. If they were not arranged in the Paros Theater, they would probably not be able to accommodate them.

The premiere here is much simpler than the premiere of commercial movies, and soon people began to enter the venue and Adrian's seat was placed at the end.

This was what he asked for, because only in this way could he better observe the audience's reaction. As for whether the other party believed it or not, it was their business, and the entire last row was arranged for the crew, and Nicole and Naomi sat on both sides of him.

The good show is finally going to happen.After turning off the lights in the screening hall, Adrian said something in his heart.I wonder how people will react to this movie?It's really curious and anticipated.

He glanced at Nicole and Naomi respectively, and seeing that they were all focusing on the screen, Adrian temporarily calmed down.

Soon, the lights hit the screen, and the Miracle director's version of "Mulholland Road" is about to begin.
