Chapter 166 Morocco

Since Adrian had been able to listen to him talk patiently when he met Jobs at various banquets before, how could he show a casual look in the office?

This is nothing more than trying to disrupt the other party's emotions and profit from it. Jobs is very smart and powerful. Not to mention anything else, just look at how he sets a trap to drive Amério away when he returned to Apple, let alone the various deeds when he founded Apple.

This person has a keen intuition, proud and narcissistic, and is also a little emotional, so this can better take the initiative into his hands.

Aren't you very proud and narcissistic?

I invested in not Apple but you; don’t you like to monopolize the power?

Not only will I not compete with you, but I will support you unconditionally!

In fact, this approach was very effective. Although Jobs was a little doubtful about his flattery and enthusiasm, he quickly agreed, and Adrian's plan was further realized.

If nothing unexpected happens, Apple will completely overcome difficulties and start to make further efforts after the millennium, and after the last few cards in Adrian's hand are also played, the connection between them will inevitably be much stronger, and the new structure of the media empire will be completely formed.

This is one of the reasons why he did not have the idea of ​​MP3 after acquiring IQ. You should know that the American Recording Association has been in a lawsuit against MP3 for several years in order to control the advantages of CD records.

There is no need to think about it before this. After that, Jobs will fight for it. Why should he spend so much effort to fight for this dispensable link?

In addition, he also took this opportunity to stumbling over Microsoft. If he hadn't intervened, Jobs would have chosen to give up the infringement lawsuit that had been infringement for more than ten years in exchange for Bill Gates' capital injection. This is a pity.

However, with the injection of other funds, Apple can continue to fight with Microsoft, and maybe it will take advantage of a certain opportunity to win this lawsuit, although the opportunity is not great.

However, what Adrian did not expect was here. After Jobs received his funds to rectify Apple, he immediately announced that he would seek a settlement with Microsoft!

This is definitely a move that surprised many people. You know, these two opponents have been competing for many years. Although Jobs seems to have declined, even if he returns to Apple, how could he shake hands with Gates with his temper and personality?

This is especially true for Adrian. If in my memory, Jobs was unable to use the long-delayed lawsuit to exchange for Gates' funds because he needed funds, then why is this for now?

He thought for a long time but couldn't find the answer. Until Jobs praised Gates, Microsoft and their products on different occasions, and even invited Gates to participate remotely at a press conference. When Gates' face appeared on the screen just like it was more than ten years ago, it immediately aroused a lot of surprises from the audience. Then Adrian came to a conclusion based on his memory and the collected information.

Jobs was indeed a genius.

He sighed so lightly in his heart.

To sum up, Jobs's trick is: take a step back and the sky is wide open.

Perhaps he had already planned Apple's future route in his mind, or he had no detailed plan, but his intuition had already made him make the correct judgment.

Adrian once said confidently that if he had not been in charge of Apple without Jobs, as long as he was doing his best and all the important employees were there, even if he could not achieve the glory of Jobs, he would be almost the same.

Now it seems that this is just a big talk. At least he will not think of taking the initiative to reconcile with Microsoft when he is well-funded and then pave a better way for himself.

Fortunately, this mistake was made very timely, and I will overestimate you as much as possible.Adrian said in his heart.

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

I know, Roger, I know your hard work, but I don’t have time now. I want to spend more time with my daughter. You should...yes, he is...well, so delay it until Saturday...yes, I’m determined, I won’t change, goodbye.

Kate turned off his phone after breathing, leaned against the wall and posted for a while before putting the phone on the counter and walking towards the bathroom.

Okay, little girl, I'm welcome if I move any more... Oh, hell, I'm already wet, you little troublemaker!

Duck!Duck!Wet duck!Dad wet duck!

The voice immediately came out of the door, and there were also the sound of flapping water splashes, the angrily shouts deliberately pretending to be, and the laughter that was completely indifferent.

Kate came to the door and leaned on the door frame and looked at the two people inside. Adrian was wearing slippers and a simple and fat shirt and shorts, sitting next to a children's bathtub, pressing his bare daughter to bathe her.

The little guy jumped happily in the water, pouring water on his father from time to time. Adri's safe body was already wet, and his hair was even more messy, without any image.

However, although he looked very angry, the smile in his eyes was still very obvious, and he made the little guy who was dodging left and right in the water giggle.

asshole!

Kate suddenly cursed in his heart, then sighed softly, looking at Adrian with complicated eyes.

Anyone who sees him now will think he is a good father. In fact, Adrian will take care of him as long as he is by his side, and often he is even more competent than her mother. This is really...

Mother!The little guy in the bathtub found Kate at the door and immediately raised his hands and waved them happily.

Hey, my dear, you are unwilling to take a shower honestly?Kate then walked over, hesitated for a while, rolled up the sleeves of his clothes and prepared to join in.

I'll do it.Adrian said understandingly, Lily is very naughty, it would be bad if she wet her clothes like me, anyway...

Before he could finish speaking, a handful of water poured on Kate's head. Lily, who was sitting inside, screamed excitedly, and sang a song that no one could understand.

You're going to be in trouble, Lily.Kate slowly pulled away his wet hair, then rushed over and grabbed her firmly in his hand amid his screams.

After some trouble, Kate became a cockerel and Adrian became a water man, and the little guy finished taking a shower.

Even so, she was still not very contented. She waited for her parents to change their clothes and then played with her for a long time before she returned to the room to sleep under the guidance of the nanny.

Thanks for your hard work.While Kate was taking a shower and was blowing his hair with a hairdryer, Adrian, in his pajamas, walked in and hugged her from behind.

not at all.Kate stared at him in the mirror for a long time before turning around. In fact, every time you are there, Lily will stick to you, so it is you who are the ones who are hard.

Adrian smiled slightly and didn't speak, but kept kissing her face and pink neck.

Kate closed his eyes, felt the touch from his skin, hugged Adrian for a while before saying: Are you going to the UK in two days?

Yes.Adrian stopped when he noticed something and held up her face. What's wrong?

Take those two women?

Of course, they are the heroines.

A feeling of upset surged out of his mind, and Kate suddenly pushed Adrian away, then turned around and walked out to sit down beside the bed.

Hey whats up?Adrian followed him out and sat behind her.

Taking a deep breath, Kate smiled with a little self-deprecating smile, and then turned his head: I just feel... your greed seems to be endless. I heard that there is another Asian servant there, right?

Oh, your relationship with Charlie is getting better and better, I'll tell you so soon.Adrian said.

Kate couldn't help but cough, neither admitting nor denying it, watching and not speaking.

A Japanese female singer, not a maid.

Adrian shrugged and said lightly, "I invested in a record company with great potential there. The other party recommended a good newcomer to come to the United States to study. He lived there for a few days and has now moved to his apartment."

Why not stay for a few more days?Or just live in your place, it will be more convenient, right?Kate finally couldn't hold back and said in a sarcastic tone.

Just try it occasionally. Although the food outside is delicious, the most eaten is made at home.

Adrian smiled meaningfully, and the woman was quite scheming. Although I didn't mind them approaching me with certain purposes, I also had to be self-aware.

Kate opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it out loud. Not only did he continue to remain silent, but he turned his head to the side.

She knew Adrian's words also included two women who wanted to follow him to England. She also knew that Adrian actually refers to the wonderful time they met, but she still couldn't help but think about her purpose.

No woman would tolerate her lover looking for another woman, let alone a lot of people looking for her, but the man in front of her not only did this but also made her unable to leave.

If I had stayed by his side in the past because of my longing for him, his sweet words and meticulousness, then now it should be more because of my future and my daughter.

Kate curled his lips and smiled slightly. It was Ah, he was the director of miracle. As long as he liked anyone, anyone would become famous. There are countless examples that prove this, myself...

Why don’t you think about it?

Then, if you break up, your daughter will definitely not be able to keep it. Although she can't see through him, this is still certain, and this is something she can't stand...

Fool, don't think so much.Adrian's voice suddenly rang in his ears, and Kate was slightly shocked, and it happened that he had been hugged by him at some point.

Do you think this will negate something?He looked at her with a smile, his eyes filled with insight.

Kate first showed a look of surprise, and then his eyes became dodging, but soon became annoyed again.

Since when did you like to face these problems with avoidance?This is not Kate Beckinsale I am familiar with.Adrian said as he reached into her bathrobe.

Start with you playing with me!Kate said angrily, and his tone softened: Can't you just not see through what I was thinking once?

If I can't see through it, how can I keep you by my side...play with it?

Adrian specifically emphasized playing with the word, with a smile on his face, and it did not change because of the pain coming from his waist.

asshole!

Oh, Kate, can't you change the word?

OK, bitch or shit, which one do you choose?

...In short, facing these things is not a difficult thing, and you don’t have to always make excuses for yourself in your heart.

Kate reached out and touched his face gently, staring into his eyes: Then I can be better written by you in the palm of your hand, right?

Very correct, dear.Adrian smiled and lowered his head and kissed her wet lips.

But I don't know how to do it.Kate said so after snorting.

It's very simple, remember the last time you were lying in my arms with Charlie?Adrian once again showed that meaningful smile.

He was ready long ago!A trace of enlightenment rose in Kate's heart, but she was not angry and watched him bit his lip: You'll go to the UK for two days anyway, how about tomorrow?

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

In late August, Adrian finally left Los Angeles, but he went to Africa rather than Europe.

This place is so vast. What will you do if there is wind and sand here, George?Adrian looked at the desolate gravel ground with his hands in his hand and said with emotion to George Lucas beside him.

Unless God doesn't want me to make a movie, there will be no wind and sand here.Lucas shrugged.

Mr. Director, everything is ready.A small director assistant ran over at this time.

Very good, ask them to prepare.Lucas nodded, said hello to Adrian and walked towards the camera.

Adrian followed slowly. He is now in Morocco, northwestern Africa, and is only separated from Spain by the Strait of Gibraltar, and is famous for tourism, fishery and phosphate.

This is one of Hollywood's favorite locations, especially many movies about the Sahara Desert are found here, including last year's "The Patient in the UK".

There is a scene in Lucas's "Star Wars" prequel in which young Anakin raced in the desert to win his own chances of freedom, so he chose here. Before that, the crew also went to Italy and Tunisia to shoot scenes such as the palace. Now they have just arrived in Morocco, and Adrian is going to the UK, so they come here to see them.

It seems to be going smoothly.

Seeing Lucas making final preparations, Adrian didn't bother him and slowly wandered around the set.

He has read the re-modified script, and Lucas has only made some minor changes based on his opinions. After all, his opinions were put forward in combination with the views of Star Wars fans in his previous life.

In this way, although the story still has many loopholes, there is no problem with the basic logic.

After walking a few steps, Adrian immediately noticed that Natalie, who was already ready to take her place on the set, was waving her hand to her. Although she was wearing a blue and gray, some rustic and completely unstyled clothes, she was still very cute, and she waved her hand so generously that she didn't care about being looked at by others.

Adrian shook his head with a chuckle, then waved his hand. His main purpose for coming here was her. It is not a big deal to greet him like this, although her mother is also here.

I know you are very cautious, but it is better to be careful.Charlize, who was following behind him holding the information and keeping his head down and sorting out something, whispered.

Don't worry, my dear, I'm responsible.

Adrian laughed, looked back at Charlize, wearing sandals, jeans, a white round neck short-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of large sunglasses, and then teased in a voice that only two people could hear: Even if you think about it, I won't do that.

Unfortunately, Charlize was not moved at all and still looked down at the information. Even so, Adrian still noticed that the corner of her mouth was slightly turned down and couldn't help but chuckled.

Kate rarely offered this request. No matter what she was thinking in her head, Adrian would not refuse, so he brought Charlize to him the next day.

But Charlize was Charlize after all, especially after working with Adrian for so long, he was quite keen and soon noticed something.

But Adrian asked her to tease Charlize on the grounds that it was Kate who proposed it, but Kate, who was inexperienced, didn't know what to do. Although her personality still retained her original harshness, she could use this trick on a woman...

She was a little nervous at first, and after the three of them returned to the bedroom, they were even more at a loss after being kissed by Charlize suddenly, and at the same time they became a little resistant, so the atmosphere became a little awkward.

Under such circumstances, Adrian naturally came out to smooth things over, and then brought the topic to the places where the other two women were interested. After several conversations, the atmosphere became much more harmonious, but the previous slightest taste also dissipated. So in the end, Adrian realized the idea of ​​holding them left and right again, but unfortunately they all fell asleep with their clothes.

The most depressing thing is to sleep with two beautiful women in their arms but not do anything.

But Adrian is Adrian after all, so he can't do it at night, but he can't do it in the morning?

Especially when people just woke up, they were confused and had to slow down on all kinds of reactions. In addition, the morning was the time for lust. So, under his intentional teasing, Kate and Charlize successfully hugged and kissed him the next morning, and they were lying under themselves, waiting for them to wake up.

If it weren't for the consideration that Lily would come and knock on the door to find her parents, and it would be useless if she hangs it on the door handle. Adrian would definitely not let the two women get out of bed. You should know that it has been too long since the last time.

Even so, Kate and Charlize looked weak when they got up. Although the maids in the villa signed a confidentiality agreement, they would inevitably give them a surprising look when they saw them like this.
