Chapter 328 One by one

To appease someone like Peter Jackson who can devote the greatest enthusiasm to his dream, it is best to quickly and concisely describe a better future in a complimentary tone, just like Adrian.

A more real and magnificent Middle-earth world?Sure enough, Jackson immediately started chewing the sentence and his face became more peaceful.

Yes, you should also have some understanding of the shooting techniques of movies, right?So tell me, how will it develop next?Adrian asked with a smile.

You mean…3D?

After all, Jackson is a director who started with CG. He soon thought of what he might have to say, but immediately shook his head: Is it a bit too early to say this now?The market seems to be incomplete. I remember that in 2004 there was a movie called "Polar Express", directed by Robert Zemegis, produced by Tom Hanks, 3D effects, live CG, and also used imax, but the box office was so bad that it made people want to commit suicide.In addition, just over a month ago, Warner and Imax launched the imax3D version of "Return of Superman", but the box office was also not ideal.

I know, I know both movies, but that's not the fault of 3D, real-life CG, or imax.

Adrian spread his hands and it took time for the market to mature, Peter, and Zemegis' ambitions were too large.If he only used one of 3D, real-life CG or imax, he would have achieved considerable results, but unfortunately he all came over and naturally did not adapt to the environment.However, this is not bad, and Warner made a stepping stone for us very well.

Speaking of this, he chuckled: You may not know that I have a lot of shares in Imax.

Jackson immediately showed a shocked expression, and then Adrian continued: 3D and imax have accumulated considerable technology since their development. Just like the CG application, there was only one person left, a person who could show its best things, and now, that person has come out.

You mean... Jackson opened his eyes wide and obviously had guessed who he was talking about.

Yes, James Cameron.

Adrian nodded. He is currently using the newly developed 3D camera to make a new movie and cooperate with IMAX. The total investment is likely to exceed 400 million.I fully believe that when his new work comes out, it will set off a new round of frenzy in technology application like the original "Titanic".

He patted hard on his shoulder: You must admit, Peter, James, this guy, has always been technically at the forefront and no one can surpass him, even me.

Jackson's face changed several times, and finally sighed depressedly: Well, although I don't want to admit it, this is indeed a fact, a sad and unpleasant fact.

Adrian was very satisfied with his attitude. As long as Jackson admitted this, there would be much more to say later.

Although Cameron can always keenly grasp the latest film technology, because these technologies are not yet fully mature, the initial investment is always large, which is why he has the reputation of burning money.You are different, Peter, you are better at using existing mature technology to make movies and let them play a 120% advantage, which is why I asked Universal to pause the preparations for The Hobbit.

Do you want to make it into a 3D, or even a 3Dimax movie?Jackson captured what he meant.

Yes, that's why I said, you can make a more real and magnificent Middle-earth world.

Adrian nodded. No matter how realistic the effect of 2D movies is, they are always flat images. 3D is equivalent to people who observe the world through a window. Good 3D effects can allow the audience to reach out to block the things shot from the front, so if they are used well, they will give people a new viewing experience. We must keep moving forward instead of staying there, right?

The last sentence is the key, Adrian is hinting, are you planning to be said by film critics to be just repeating the work of a miracle director?

Don’t you want to brand your entirely own in Middle-earth world?

Jackson obviously understood: OK, I...I can wait. If... it really works like that, I'm not questioning Cameron, I'm just... a little worried.

There is no doubt that this hint is quite attractive to him and is worthy of being an avid fan of The Lord of the Rings.

Then you can go and talk to him, observe, understand the specific situation, and help you by the way.

Adrian immediately said, "You can take this opportunity to fully think about what adjustments the Hobbit needs to make. Peter and James' movie will be released at the end of 2009 at the latest. Then, I hope to see the movie version of "The Hobbit" in the following year, so your responsibility is heavy."

But... Jackson showed a struggled expression.

Trust me, Peter, you will gain something.

Adrian further strengthened his confidence. Anyway, we have not released the news that "The Hobbit" will be adapted into a movie. You can find another work to practice. You should have another movie you want to shoot, right?Then take the time to communicate with James to learn about the details of 3D and imax. When we officially announce it, you can drive at full speed. I may not be able to give you the same investment as James, but it is OK in terms of the entire series.

I see.After breathing a lot, Jackson finally agreed, you can always convince others, Ed.

Because you are willing to be convinced by me.Adrian smiled slightly.

When "Avatar" was released, Cameron decided on the name from the beginning. Although Adrian said that he might be able to change it to a more popular one, he was ruthlessly rejected.

3D and imax movies will lead to a blowout, and the director who followed the first bus will inevitably leave his name, so Adrian urged Jackson to seize the opportunity to follow Cameron.

Of course he could do his own work on the Hobbit and Diamonds and make it into a series, which is not difficult, but what's the point?

Giving it to Jackson is also a kind of compensation.

As long as he is willing to follow him and give something, he will reward him as much as possible. This is Adrian's rule.

Not to mention this, nor to mention the sad shooting. Although the communication with Favreau is pretty good, the cave scene is still progressing slowly.

In addition to Adrian, there are other problems. For example, one time, when facing terrorists, Adrian finally performed well. When the filming ended, the prop stand next to him suddenly collapsed for some reason, so he failed.

This accident made the crew feel disheartened for a while. Finally, after watching the video for a long time and communicating with many people, including Adrian, Favreau decided to insert a shot from before the prop holder collapsed, and then continue shooting here from another angle, finally recovering some of the losses.

Despite this, over time, everyone began to accept this situation. Anyway, even if the budget has not exceeded it, a super rich man can also invest additionally!

So Adrian is still very free, and it is no problem to participate in the premiere of some movies. For example, the second part of "The Hulk", although it was produced by Fox, the heroine is still Liv.

In addition, Da Bingbing also came to the United States to attend the premiere. She made a cameo appearance in it for about five minutes, not a villain, and a few lines were pretty good, and there were three or four close-up scenes.

There could have been a few more minutes, but Adrian was limited to fifteen minutes at the time. The earlier he blew out, the more time he would appear on the camera.

Although she had all the tricks, she was still a little anxious. She could have had seven minutes, but she was unable to succeed at the critical moment, so she only had five minutes left.

Xiao Bingbing is a little better than her. She has six minutes of footage in the second part of "Fantastic Four", but the movie will not be released until the end of the year, and there is at least one missing close-up scene, okay, there is no difference.

In this regard, the weight of the Chinese market is indeed increasing. Without Jos Wheden, the performance in North America was not as good as the first Hulk, but it received a good response in the mainland. It may be less than five or six years later, but the increase rate can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.

The amazing series also kicked off at this moment, with Clark Greg playing Colcente making his debut at the end of the film, demanding to take over the Hulk.

In another time and space, Tony Stark should have come forward, but unfortunately, "Iron Man" is still filming, and Adrian asked for confidentiality, so Easter eggs became S.H.E.L.D.

Although Universal did nothing during this summer vacation, it only refers to large commercial productions. Some medium-investment movies are still very good, such as "Dance from My Life" starring Meghan.

Like "Fast and Furious", "Dance of My Life" is also a very popular series. After the millennium, as singing and dancing movies began to get closer to people of lower age levels, movies that show teenagers' love for dance and music began to become popular. "Sing and Dance" at the beginning of the year is the best example.

However, "Singing and Dance" is still a little far from life. Not everyone has played a role in a musical in school, but they have watched it more or less dance.

So "Dance from My Life" with this theme can easily attract people's attention, so this series has also become one of the examples of low-cost and high returns, so Adrian let Meghan play the heroine in the first part.

Although Meghan became a hit with "Transformers", his age is there, and it is quite appropriate to star in such a youthful movie. Anyway, it doesn't require too much acting skills. The key is whether the dance in the movie can resonate with the audience.

This is true. Even though "Dance of My Life" was criticized by critics, it became popular all the time in the box office, and Meghan became more popular, especially in the movie, whose twisted waist was sexy and hot, and it was impossible to tell that she had given birth to a child at all, which made many young people further regard her as the goddess in their dreams.

Even so, not many people at the beginning estimated that at this point, so naturally there was no decent premiere, so there was only one movie premiere that Adrian would officially attend in August except for "The Hulk".

OK, I understand, don’t you still have time now?He yawned in the sunshine, and Adrian, holding his cell phone, said, "Is there any?"OK, maybe you can...

He stopped halfway through his words, because a slim figure appeared at the entrance of the stairs in a panic, wearing some messy clothes, carrying bags and high heels in his hands. After seeing Adrian, he immediately showed an angry look.

How can you do this, Ed!This is so bad, this is so despicable, I have a husband, I love him, how do you want me to face him!

The other party gritted his teeth and said, looking at that, if it weren't for being a little uncomfortable, the high heels had already flown towards him.

Calm, Tina, calm down.Adrian covered his phone immediately, and I heard that this was an accident.

Let your surprise go to hell!I will never trust you again!

Tina Fei, who was intertwined with anger and frustration, flicked a punch, then put on her high heels, ignored her disheveled appearance, and soon the roar of a car sounded outside.

Adrian shrugged, not caring too much. If Tina really hated herself as much as she showed, she wouldn't have come last night, so in fact, she was still...

Have a desire.

Nothing, you should guess it.He continued to speak with his cell phone, his tone very relaxed, but he had to cover it again after a few minutes because a woman came down from the upper floor.

It's really... This is really... Bridge Muna covered her forehead, her steps seemed a little sloppy. It's better than Tina's that her clothes are relatively neat.

After seeing Adrian, she immediately rolled her eyes: How can you do this, Ed?This is simply crazy!

Well... this is indeed a bit crazy, to be honest, I didn't expect it to be like this in the end.Adrian shrugged and said half true.

No, you can't have thought that I might not know you very much, but this is certain.Bridget was tidying up her clothes angrily.

Adrian opened his mouth and was about to say something when suddenly a thud sound rang out, and then Vanessa Marcel, who was wearing only underwear and holding his clothes rushed down from above.

What happened?What happened!Why... Why... She asked in a panic, looking at Bridget and then at Adrian, and after a while she realized.

What happened last night?Vanessa looked at Adrian with an unhappy expression while putting on her clothes in front of him.

Well… As you can see, that’s it.Adrian shrugged again.

It was my worst party experience, which was so bad, and while I don't mind the occasional indulgence, it was so casual.Bridger became angry again.

Vanessa originally wanted to cooperate and say a few words, but she didn't say anything when she thought of something. She looked at Adrian and then comforted her while wearing her coat: But it's good to be so crazy once a while, isn't it?

Not bad too?Bridger looked at Vanessa, slightly surprised, "Did I hear it wrong, or did you say it wrong, Vanessa?"

She spoke in a hurry, so she seemed a little aggressive. However, although Vanessa was a little unhappy, she did not show it clearly. She just spread her hands: Isn't it?The world is so wonderful, many of which are worth trying, and it’s no big deal to be so crazy once.I recall it more than when I get older, and I regretfully said, "I could have tried it, but I gave up for various reasons. What a pity." OK?

Bridger was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips, as if she wanted to refute, but she didn't know how to refute.

After a few seconds of silence, she seemed to have guessed something and glanced between Vanessa and Adrian, then picked up her own thing and was about to leave: I'm going back.

Do you want me to give it to you?You look...not very sober yet.Adrian asked.

No, I'll just drive slowly.Bridget turned around and sighed, then strode out.

How am I acting?After she left, Vanessa smiled at him like a credit.

Very good, I like it very much.Adrian immediately smiled and came over to kiss her face, and had breakfast together?

Of course... Vanessa just said something, and immediately thought of something and looked at the time, then sighed depressedly, Sorry, Ed, I made an appointment with the dentist, got up a little late, the time was almost here.

oh?Adrian also looked at the time, okay, it was already ten o'clock.

Do you want me to give it to you?He asked immediately.

No, I can drive myself.Vanessa smiled and replied, "Goodbye."

Not bad, very eye-catching.Adrian praised in his heart, then slapped her on the buttocks, making a crisp sound.

Vanessa immediately gave him a blank look, twisted her butt and walked out like that. After seeing her disappear at the door, he raised his phone to his ear again: I have to hang up, Ini, I will arrive in New York on time.

As soon as he finished speaking, the wire was disconnected. There was no doubt that even though he covered the phone, Ivanka had heard the previous ones.

Adrian smiled, about to put away his phone, another sound of walking came, and this time, Melinda Clark and Camilla Baylor appeared at the entrance of the stairs together.

The two walked down tacitly, and while walking, they were whispering and saying something, and their eyes glanced at him from time to time, which was really a bit...

Mother and daughter appearance.

Hi, good morning.This time Adrian took the lead in saying hello.

I never want to believe you again, Ed.Meilinda sighed. Although she was extremely unrestrained in the bed, she would always bring a little elegance at this time.

Well, since that's the case... I'm sorry, obviously, I shouldn't have provided so much marijuana last night, so... Adrian smiled and spread his hands. Unlike Tina, Melinda has said this countless times, but in the end she always does whatever she should do, and it can be seen that she enjoys it.

I think this would still be the case when I wake up this morning without marijuana.Camilla interrupted from the side.

Her expression was very ordinary, and she was also a girl who could blow the trumpet for him in the office. She would not say how strong she was in her acceptance. Even if she felt discomfort, she should adjust at this time.

As compensation, I invite you to have breakfast together.Adrian said with a smile, "I have worked hard to make them all by myself, don't let me eat them alone."

Well, since you invite it so kindly.

After exchanging a look with Melinda, Camilla nodded, and then reminded: By the way, there is another one, I'm afraid you have to ask her to get up in person.

indeed.Adrian said and made a gesture of asking for help.

Then, he followed the stairs to the room where he was caring last night on the second floor. When he pushed open the half-closed door, he could see a slightly petite figure leaning against the head of the bed, staring blankly at everything in front of him. It was Emma Stone, who played Vanessa Marcel's daughter in "Desperate Housewife"!
