Chapter 133 Expand again

There is no need to say more about what Lawrence Fishburne and Garkinu Reeves means. Not long after the novel version of "The Matrix" was published, there were producers contacting the copyright of the film, and it was endless.

Although most of them are small companies and there are several complete scammers, there are also several large film companies with a little investigation. They will naturally not imagine getting the copyright from Adrian, so there are still many people with vision in Hollywood.

It’s time to put this movie on the screen, preferably after "Titanic". In this way, as one of the movies that started the CG era, "The Matrix" will inevitably make a more important move in film history.

Although the movie itself is full of meaning and has a low status in film history, the reason why Adrian had to be a few years in advance is that the response caused by this version after it was produced may not be as good as the original version.

In order to keep the copyright in your hands early and not be said to be an animation inspired by the Japanese, plus a series of factors such as training writing style, Adrian wrote the story early and published it, and completed the trilogy.

So when the movie becomes popular, audiences are forced to go back and buy original novels to read.

Although Adrian modified some of the plots, some plots suitable for the performance of the movie are not suitable for the novel, and even made different hints in the ending from the movie. The ending place where Zion was written cheering, and when the long-awaited peace and freedom finally came, he added a small tail: a person with a poor appearance returned to the room and fiddled with some instruments, and then showed a strange smile.

This ending is based on a joke I saw in my previous life. I remember that before the third part of "The Matrix" was released, countless people quarreled on the Internet and what the ending might be like.

The highest support rate is that Zion’s people are on another independent server, and they are still under the control of the parent in the virtual space.

In order to make it different from the movie, Adrian used this idea. Of course, he used the blank method to make readers unable to be sure whether it was still in the virtual space or whether the person was occupied by a virus like Agent Smith.

Even so, many places still have similarities with movies. The reason why many movies adapted from novels are popular is that they are concretized by the classic or famous scenes, and the other is that movies always add and delete some content. Those popular movies adapted from novels are better at adding and deleting them, which makes people feel different from reading novels.

So for "The Matrix", once movie fans watch the movie and buy novels, the next two movies will basically lose their mystery, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to the movie.

Although the production in advance cannot completely improve this situation, Adrian did not make any other plans. There is no better way anyway. More importantly, the original version has been fully expanded by many people, and even interpreted many things that a certain driver and brother had never thought about. God knows how will people interpret these two different versions with the same ending?

They had endless time, and they were eager to show themselves, so they could just go and argue, Adrian said to himself.Maybe it will turn into a good thing later.

It will be very hard at the beginning, but as long as you get used to it, you will get used to it.

When facing Monica who was quite tired after training, Adrian comforted her, this is a good thing, which can fully train your body and better maintain your body shape.Of course, if I really don’t adapt, I will ask them to reduce your training first and then slowly increase it. Anyway, there is still time.

It doesn't matter, I can stick with it.Monica rejected his kindness, I was not kidding, Ed, this training cannot defeat me.

Seeing her strong-willed appearance, Adrian didn't stop him, but just smiled: OK, then that's how about I'll give you a massage after I go back?

real?Monica looked disbelief, her eyes full of information about what dirty things you were thinking about.

Although I am not as good as those professional nurses, it is still OK to slightly relieve muscle fatigue.Adrian laughed, not explaining it any further.

He always has a proper attitude when doing things, saying that it is just a massage. Although the touch on his hands is quite good, he did not move any other things. In the end, he just hugged Monica and slept all night.

If he had no self-control, how could he have obtained the status he is today?

Thinking about her role in "The Matrix", and when compared with her now, a funny feeling can't stop coming to Adrian's heart.

Monica is still very suitable for the role of Triniti. She has also been a model and has always had a well-proportioned figure. She is also suitable for playing a cold and charming role. She is a little older than Reeves, but this is not a difficult task. The makeup artist can just use a little method.

As for the breasts that everyone envies, there is no pressure. In a world where physical rules can be changed at will, this problem will not prevent her from showing her flexible skills, and perhaps it will make her more tempting.

To be honest, when he decided to let Monica play the heroine, Adrian originally wanted to change the other three main characters. The hero was originally considering Joaquin Phoenix, but Reeves and Revan are both good friends. Besides, Adrian is more familiar with Reeves, so he still found him. As expected, Reeves agreed immediately.

As for the role of Morpheus, among the most outstanding black stars in the agency's current agency, neither Samuel Jackson nor Denzel Washington are suitable. Jackson's appearance is a bit evil, and his broken voice is not suitable for a role like Morpheus.

Washington looks decent enough, but he is a little too decent enough, calm enough but lacks some feeling of giving in. It will be fine in a few years, but Adrian can't wait for that time.

As for Will Smith, he was eliminated directly. He was too young to play Morpheus at all.

So after thinking about it, he finally found Lawrence Fishburne. Of course, Adrian admitted that this was included in the factors that were affected by the original version, but Reeves still played the leading role was one of the reasons.

Although the two protagonists have not changed, the other characters can be adjusted. Adrian came up with an interesting idea when he was referring to memory to read the first script. As for what it is, he will know in the future.

Time flies, and the summer vacation is over soon, and AC Media has successfully expanded again, but this time they failed to be on the front page of the financial media, and many economic critics are not optimistic about their acquisition of Marvel Comics.

Everyone knows that this comic company, which has more than 5,000 comics and once competed with DC Comics, is indeed in a very embarrassing state. The sales of comics are declining and all investments are at a loss. If appropriate adjustments and reforms cannot be made, it will be a matter of time before it is sold.

But I don’t read this way. Marvel comics still have a lot of potential to tap. Although I am not good at specific administrative management, I believe that I should have enough say in making movies and entertainment.

In the meeting room of Marvel Company, Adrian was sitting on the top and talking.

This was the first meeting after Marvel was acquired by AC Media. In addition to Adrian and Crowder, Marvel's executives, directors, and well-known authors who own some copyrights of comic characters, such as Stan Lee.

Of course, before that, Marvel Company must first make adjustments, after all, it is indeed a bit bloated now, and many departments and head offices have duplicates.However, I promise that during the integration, I will fully consider the feelings and opinions of everyone here. As long as I spend some time, surprise will surely be revitalized!

Adrian continued.

His main job is to cheer up the people here, so that they can believe that the future is bright and the road is tortuous.

In Claude's words, if he doesn't make good use of Adrian's eloquence and the word "Miracle" in the title of Miracle Director, he must be the stupidest idiot in the world.

Then I'll leave it to you, Director Miracle, if I don't fulfill my promise, I will seek justice for my children.

After the meeting, the old man Stan Lee joked about Adrian like this.

This old man is very humorous and funny, known as an old naughty boy, and most of the superheroes who were brought to the screen in the 21st century are from his writings. They are the kind of person who can maintain an optimistic attitude at any time. During the recession of Marvel Comics, they have always encouraged everyone to get better. Even if Marvel is inevitably acquired by AC Media, they still happily said that this may be a good thing. Of course, the rights that should be fought for are also very unambiguous. They also raised several sharp questions at the meeting before.

No problem, at most three years, Surprise will usher in more remarkable development.Adrian made a promise without hesitation, and then added: As long as I am there.

Stan Lee's reaction to this was to shrugge, and not all critics were optimistic about AC Media's acquisition of Marvel Comics. Several also explained the changes that directors of Marvel might bring to Marvel in their articles, after all, Adrian's achievements were placed there.

But according to common sense, who can maintain his advantages for a long time?

It is not impossible to capsize in the gutter by accident. Stan Lee's reaction is already good. If it were someone else, he might still praise him on the surface, but he turned around and sneered and prepared to joke.

Are you really confident that you can make surprise come back in just three years?After leaving the Marvel Company, Cloud asked quippedly.

what you think?Adrian asked back.

It’s hard to say. Although I have learned a lot before, I was still surprised after looking through their business situation, and it was simply a mess.Claude shrugged.

How compared to ABC?

This is incomparable. ABC is at most poor management. The entire management class is still very capable. As long as there are relatively excellent programs, it can stabilize the decline and then recover.As for surprise, it can be said that the goals of the management class are very chaotic and are expanding unrealistically. If you want to clean up this mess, you may have to lay off many departments and personnel. This time you have a problem for me, Ed.

Claude sighed.

You can first cut off and remove irrelevant departments and personnel. As for other places, you can observe first and make adjustments after making profits. At that time, they will definitely have nothing to say.

Adrian said as he got into the car.

I'm not kidding, Crow, if it weren't for waiting for the release of Titanic to collect more specific responses, it would be at most two years to alleviate the dilemma of surprise.

Adrian said, pouring a glass of champagne from the small refrigerator of the RV and handing it to Claude. The comic era of "Spider-Man" can cause a lot of trends, and the adapted movies can do the same.

Have you chosen the subject matter to be adapted?Claude raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Almost, most of them are from Stan Lee’s hands, Spider-Man, X-Men, Fantastic Four, etc., not necessarily entirely produced by our film company, I have more arrangements.

OK OK OK, these are things you are good at, and only you will spend 200 million. Now it is 2.4 billion to invest in a movie. I really don’t know how you deal with Regit.

Looking at Claude's sighing look, Adrian couldn't help laughing. Thinking about this era, he was the only one who dared to invest in a movie with such a lot of money. He was quite proud, but he was talked about by Regat several times.

Reget has been managing his finances in an orderly manner in recent years. You should know that in addition to owning AC Media, Adrian has a lot of private investments, all of which are responsible for Reget.

Although he is serious and serious, he is always loyal to him and has reminded Adrian more than once not to delegate power to Claude too much.

This is by no means a provocation. You should know that Paul Allen, as Bill Gates' childhood friend, supported Gates in developing Microsoft from the beginning, was still scheming by Gates, and diluted his shares in Microsoft when he was sick.

There are no friends in the business world from beginning to end, especially when the business is getting bigger and bigger.

But Adrian and Claude were different. First of all, the Cowell family and the Ronrees family were a friendship between generations, and the relationship between Adrian and Claude was not comparable to that of ordinary partners; secondly, Adrian laid the foreshadowing early on, and the prophecy that he predicted when he persuaded Claude to join the gang are now realized one by one. His extraordinary vision and entertainment achievements have added enough voice to him; again, although Adrian is not good at administrative management and financial matters, he is not aware of anything. He reads the monthly statements in detail, and he is also inquiring about the company's affairs at any time. In addition, Charlize has been thoroughly tempered after several years. He is a very outstanding secretary assistant, so there is no need to worry about any mistakes.

More importantly, as his financial advisor, Reget is also paying attention to these things at any time.

I have to admit that although there are not many people left by the father who have never met, they are all impeccable in terms of ability and loyalty.

Wait and see, Crow.Adrian finally said meaningfully, "My prophecies from a few years ago have come true one by one, and now, sooner or later."

Yes, it will be achieved sooner or later, but that still requires continued efforts.

By the end of September, the post-production of "The Eye Opening" entered the middle. Adrian was not Kubrick and did not need to edit it over and over in pursuit of perfection, so his editing speed has always been very fast. If it weren't for considering that he wanted to make his halo further dazzling and not overdoing it, he might have considered what would be released at the end of the year.

Adrian only met Nicole again when the Cruise and his wife were involved in the dubbing work, but they always left together, and there were not many places to do it.

But, there are opportunities after all.

I want to take a step first. Dear, when the work is completed, you will go back first. I ask David to send me over and come back to pick you up. If he doesn't come after he is finished, you can wait a moment.

After answering a call, Cruise said to Nicole.

Can't you wait for me?Nicole wants to keep him.

I have been waiting for you these days, but you still have at least ten minutes of scenes now. The things over there are a bit urgent, just one day.Cruise's tone was obviously a little impatient.

Nicole watched her husband move his mouth, but did not speak anymore, but just watched him leave here.

Then, Cruise left for the front foot, and Adrian half forced Nicole into the lounge.

Please...Ed...Don't do this... Nicole, who was pressed on the wall, closed her eyes and twisted her head to avoid Adrian's kiss, but no matter how she looked, it seemed that she was trying to take the initiative to meet her.

Why?Didn’t you enjoy the time you were filming?Adrian's voice was filled with a little joke.

At that time... different from now... Nicole gasped slightly, and the resistance became smaller and smaller.

I can't see any difference?

Adrian smiled and then blew gently into her ear: I was watching the lustful scene in the secret room every day when I was editing recently.

Nicole suddenly tensed her body, a hint of panic flashed in her half-open eyes, and her breathing became disordered.

Don't worry, no one has seen it again except me.Adrian knew what she was thinking and immediately chuckled.

An angry blush appeared on Nicole's face, but before she could do anything, Adrian continued to say in her ear: Do you know, although the lights are not very bright, the colors are relatively simple, and the effect is relatively poor, you were really charming at that time and fully revealed everything you have from the inside out!

Nicole's body suddenly softened, and Adrian then took possession of her without hesitation.
