I've had enough, Ed!

Glum's face turned red and he shouted angrily, waving his fists in the office, "I said so much and made so many suggestions, but you can't even listen to a word. Have you ever respected me!"

Of course I respect you, Winston.Adrian behind the desk spread his hands open, as if he didn't see the other person's angry look at him. I kept trying to figure out how to resolve our differences.

Find a way to resolve the differences?

The old man's eyes widened and his lips were trembling slightly. It was obvious that he was extremely angry. He threw my opinions aside like air and always changed the plot according to his own wishes. This is also called finding a way to resolve the differences?!

But the problem is that your opinion and conceptual tone do not match, Winston.

Adrian said leisurely, "I have said this many times. You always want to move the script closer to political satire, always want to highlight the two sides of the protagonist, and I don't want to have such a slight relationship with politics at all."

Glum rubbed both sides of his head and suddenly raised his hands: So, we can't reach an agreement on our opinions?Very good, then I quit, Ed, I'm fucking quit!

He looked at Adrian with a slap and apart expression.

Are you going to quit?Adrian raised his eyebrows, and he was waiting for this sentence, OK, then I'll do it alone.

Completed alone?Glum realized something was wrong, and the contract clearly stated...

Articles 11 to 14 of the contract paragraph 7 show a good explanation of what I can do in this case.

Adrian interrupted him with a brisk voice, so I guess there was no problem with that.

This...how can this be done?!

Glum's face, which was already red, began to develop towards purple, and his facial features became a little distorted. After a while, he said: This is a trap, I want to sue you!

It's your way.

Adrian's face suddenly became cold, and he looked at Glum and sneered, "I'll be with you at any time, Winston, there are so many movies to be produced, so I don't care about this one, let's talk about it...

He sat upright and looked at him with a playful look: What he sold to me was 15 years of authority.

Glum glared at him, his face looking extremely ugly, his breathing became much thicker, his fists tightly, as if he could swing them at any time.

But he finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked out without saying a word.

With the sound of the rum, the office finally returned to quiet. Adrian leaned back on the back of the chair and hummed disdainfully. He originally planned to win Glum's Best Adaptation Award to be worthy of his name, but unexpectedly, the old man's temper could not be changed at all. No wonder he was kicked away in his previous life.

Once this kind of person becomes stubborn, no matter what your identity is, no matter how capable you are, you can't even get back ten, so it's more comfortable to deal with people who know how to advance and retreat.

But now, it's good that he has to tear his face off means he can modify the script more quickly, rather than always focusing on persuasion and disputes like before.

Besides, Adrian was so kind that he had done his best. If Glum really filed a lawsuit, he would never be polite to him, and others would not say much.

After getting this done, Adrian started a leisurely life again, such as communicating with Natalie, going to record companies from time to time, or teasing Charlize, and dating Monica Julia gave him a look after several days after being rejected when she asked him to spend Thanksgiving.

The promotional work of several movies has already entered the track, and it goes without saying "Piano Lesson". "Philadelphia Story" has attracted a lot of attention with its signature of homosexuality and discrimination against AIDS patients, but it is still much better than "Schindler's List".

The black and white trailer was broadcast on major TV stations the week before Thanksgiving. The trailer edited by Spielberg himself attracted countless attention at the first time, followed by a large number of various remarks.

There is no line from beginning to end, only a sad and heavy soundtrack. Various black and white scenes appear from time to time. The Jews who are insulted at will, the crowded train carriages to hell, the gold teeth poured out of the bag, and Steine's calmness, Aimmon's arrogance, and Schindler's meditation appear one by one, making people feel pressure involuntarily.

Usually, trailers are the essence of the movie, but in just a few minutes it concentrates the most worth watching, but "Schindler's List" seems to break this rule.

Some people write this, but others think the trailer is quite outstanding.

Spielberg made a bold attempt, and in his opinion, the use of black and white colors could better express the sad environment at that time.

They said so, and then many people agreed with this view, while those who opposed continued to object, and the two opinions began to argue again, further aroused the public's appetite, and the rhythm was very well mastered.

Needless to say, I know who is manipulating it. With the secret help of those old men, Schindler's List will definitely receive more praise than the version I remember.

In addition, Viacom's acquisition of Paramount has also been settled. Although Summer Redstone handled Barry Diller as early as the end of October, he simply used the funds he had acquired Blockbuster and used this as collateral to borrow from the bank. Finally, it was not until mid-November that he officially took over Paramount.

During this period, we were basically negotiating with Claude. Claude wanted to take this opportunity to join Viacom's board of directors, and even if he couldn't do anything, he would have to occupy a seat.

But Lei Shidong obviously does not think AC Media is qualified to do so, so the two have never reached an agreement.

Claude was not in a hurry and kept talking to Redstone slowly until he submitted a letter of intent to Turner Broadcasting Corporation in mid-November.

Many people were surprised by AC Media's actions. This was especially true for Ted Turner, who was immersed in the joy of successfully acquiring the new film company. This unknown media company was quietly mastered almost 40% of TBS shares. Claude believed that 30% was enough, but Adrian insisted on 51%. After he couldn't make it, the two took a compromise number: 40%.

Not everyone knows their background, so although some people in the industry are surprised, they are not optimistic about this acquisition.

But Lei Shidong was obviously not among them, so he thought about Claude's request that he agreed to after a long time.

He is optimistic about us.

Claude said to Adrian, if it weren't for the hindrance of Paramount this time, Diller might have targeted us after the acquisition of Paramount, and he would be interested in you.

Thank him for me and told him that I am glad we have a seat on Viacom's board.Adrian answered so.

As for the acquisition of TBS, I have been waiting for so long and I am not in a hurry. Claude has made sufficient preparations. Even if Ted Turner is reluctant, he will not want to win this war at least that's what he said.

Adrian, who was not proficient in this area, naturally gave his full power to his best friend and then enjoyed his life with peace of mind.

Thanksgiving in 1993 finally came, and Adrian went to Italy with Monica as promised, because he kept a low profile and no one noticed them.

The two visited central Italy together. Of course, as a repertoire, they spent Thanksgiving on the day of Monica's parents.

My parents like you very much.

As Monica said this to Adrian, the two were strolling on the streets of Milan.

After hearing that Adrian had never been here, Monica immediately pulled him to Milan. She had participated in the show in Milan a lot when she was a professional model and was very familiar with everything here.

Thanks, they are so enthusiastic.Adrian smiled slightly, holding Monica's arm tightened.

He was indeed very enthusiastic. His decent good conversation and behavior won the favor of Monica's parents, so much so that Monica's mother asked her daughter privately when she planned to get married.

It was the second day of Thanksgiving, and when Adrian was planning to ask Monica to leave as planned, he accidentally heard it outside the half-closed door.

At the same time, there are some very interesting topics, such as her mother asked her if she screamed so loudly at night, would she be a little unbearable?

There has just been a heavy snow in Milan. The winter sun shines on the white snow that has not been cleaned yet, making everything look so clean. Although people are wearing thick clothes, they are still very tasteful in their dressing and are worthy of being the fashion capital.

Monica didn't say anything anymore, but just walked quietly with Adrian, making a creaking sound when she stepped on the snow.

What are you thinking?Adrian asked on his own initiative, thinking that the small fashion show before was not exciting?

Although this year's International Fashion Festival has long passed, it is Milan, and there are fashion shows of all sizes at any time. In addition, Monica has been spending a lot of time, so naturally she has to watch a few shows.

But when watching, Monica's attention was obviously not on the show. As for where she was, she could take a peek from the conversation just now.

I guess so.Monica said this, then suddenly laughed, with free and easy eyes between her eyebrows.

Ed.She leaned into his ear and asked softly, "If one day I want to leave you, will you let me leave?"

Of course not.Adrian replied without hesitation, "You know, I'm a bastard, very greedy, possessive, so I will never let you leave."

It's really...standard Ed's answer.Monica curled her lips and didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

unless.Adrian suddenly spoke again, I can't give you anything again, you feel that you have no nostalgia by my side.

Monica suddenly raised her head and stared into Adrian's eyes, looking back with a serious look on her face.

Sure enough, you always... The girl sighed and suddenly wrapped her neck and kissed him. So another couple of men and women kissed warmly on the streets of Milan.
