Chapter 163 About TV Series

At this time of year, countless predictions are released. Critics interpret the possible trend of the Oscars from their own perspectives. Various comments greatly enrich the topics of conversations among Americans after dinner, and also make many diehard fans confront each other for their favorite actors or directors. Who made Oscars a grand event in the film industry?

However, Adrian, one of the subjects of the debate, was not interested in making a definite response to this. Even if he was surrounded by reporters when he was out for a party, he would only use clichés to make things perfunctorily. For example, thanking the Golden Globe judges for awarding the Best Movie to "Smelling the Fragrance", or Pacino and Thompson deserve the title of the award, and it is normal not to get the Best Director, etc.

But some substantive things, such as predicting the Oscar prospects, never talk about them.

He is probably conceiving a new movie again, and the title of workaholic is not for nothing.Some media teased him like this.

Adrian was indeed busy, and it was the first time he was so busy after more than a month of rest.

But this time I was not busy with movies. He was so troubled that he had made three different movies in a hurry last year. There was no need to do this this year.

This time he was busy with TV series. After Jennifer Aniston caught the memory of "Friends" that night, he immediately asked the company to start collecting relevant information.

Fortunately, the situation was the best, and there was no script for similar TV series, so after giving the TV department a rough idea, he immediately asked the screenwriters to start writing the content of the first episode.

Of course, Adrian did not participate too much. He just kept making suggestions on the finished script and sent it back to the screenwriter to revise it until he was satisfied.

He could not and was not interested in producing a TV series, nor could he recall the content of all the TV series. These must be the responsibility of the team of the TV department, so they must understand the theme and direction of the TV series themselves.

Friendship between six people is the key. They may have one or another problem, and they may quarrel over trivial matters, but when they calm down, they will reflect and understand each other. This is why the name of the TV series is called "Friend".

Adrian, who was sitting on the head of the long-time desk, glanced at the staff on both sides and said.

Seeing that they were all listening carefully, he spoke again: We all know that the TV series is broadcast one episode every week, and there are only two aspects to attract the audience to watch. First, it leaves enough suspense to make them want to know what will happen next; second, it can make people laugh and make them want to continue to be happy."Friends" naturally uses the second method, but please note that gentlemen and ladies, these jokes must be close to life, and the audience thinks that these six protagonists are all people living around them, and they will encounter these interesting things that happen between them at any time. There is no need to be too exaggerated. You must grasp the characteristics of the characters. Do you understand?

Speaking of this, Adrian flipped through the folders in his hand and took out two copies to Yang: For example, in the eighth episode of Zachary and Richard, Ross was a bit stubborn and a bit dull, but he was definitely not an ignorant person.On the contrary, the tenth episode of Celjo, Alison and Chevat did a good job, with Joey’s slow pace, Phoebe’s neuroticism and Rachel’s little confusion all performed very well.You can compare and take a look, I have already stated my opinion on it.

He put the two documents into the hands of Clark, the team leader on the left. Clark quickly read them and then handed them to the next person. After circulating them one by one, he divided them into several groups to discuss them. Finally, Famiga, the leader of the screenwriter team, looked up at Adrian and said carefully: We will modify them as soon as possible, Mr. Adrian.

Very good, are there any other questions?

Adrian glanced at everyone again. Seeing that no one was talking, he waved his hand to sign the meeting: That's it, the casting work can begin, and sample samples will be produced as soon as possible and handed over to the TV station.

Although it took almost half a month to complete the ten episodes of the first season, in Adrian's opinion, the screenwriters from the TV department have done a good job. After all, the first few episodes were almost completely modified according to his intentions, and the last three episodes were freely played by the screenwriters.

In these episodes, except for the description of Ross in the eighth episode, the other two episodes are done well. If the sample produced can pass the test from him, then the TV series can be handed over to them with confidence.

If it weren't for your previous statement, I really thought you were going to make a TV series.

Lafen caught up from behind and muttered, although he attended the meeting, he didn't say a word from beginning to end.

How could it be?Although I am crazy at work, I am always alone.

Adrian laughed twice. Even though he made three movies in one go last year, it was done with the help of the team.

As he said that, he patted Lavern on the shoulder: I was worried, Laver, this TV series will receive positive reviews. You think so after reading the script, don’t you?

Yes, so I am supportive.Lavern shrugged, and frankly, Ed, it’s both lucky and unfortunate to have a boss like you.

Because I can give you full trust and power, but once you decide to do something, you have to continue doing it no matter what, right?Adrian looked at him with a smile.

Lavern shrugged again without saying anything, and Adrian patted him on the shoulder again.

The two looked at each other and smiled. With the past two years of working together and the development of the company, they already had a very tacit understanding.

Mr. Adrian.A clerk came over at this time, and Mr. Dennis was already waiting for you in your office.

OK, I'll come.

Adrian said, nodding to Lafen and leaving, but after two steps, he turned around and reminded him: By the way, Lafar, tell the head of the Human Resources Department that I need an assistant secretary now.

Secretary Assistant?Lavern was a little puzzled.

You can be a secretary when you are in the office and an assistant when you are on the set.Adrian explained, I need an all-round talent who can help with all the trivial matters.

Well, I know, I will let them figure out a way to solve this problem as soon as possible.Lafone agreed.

Adrian nodded again and then walked towards his office.

Hi Dan, sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time.As soon as he entered the office, Adrian saw Dennis wearing a single-clothed dress sitting boredly on the chair and greeted him funnyly.

Ah…Hi Ed.Dennis quickly pressed the chair and started to bounce. Although he was so familiar with Adrian that he could not be more familiar with him, he always instinctively maintained a kind of respect when he was in the office.

It's nothing, you have your own business to be busy with.He waved his hand indifferently, and I've only been here for a few minutes anyway.

After pausing, Dennis asked curiously again: By the way, what are you busy with? New movies?

Of course not.

Adrian suddenly sighed, Why do everyone ask me like this?Crowe is like this, and you are like this. As long as I am at work, I must be busy with new movies?Am I like a workaholic?

Probably, because the media calls you that.Dennis looked like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare.

It seems to take a long time to reverse people's view of me.

Adrian raised his hand helplessly, walked to the desk and sat down, but it didn't matter. Anyway, there weren't many plans this year, and there was no one around to deal with it.

Sorry, Ed, I'm sorry.Dennis, who sat down again, said so quickly.

Pity?Adrian looked at him inexplicably, but then he reacted and shook his head laughing and crying.

It's okay, I didn't take it to heart.Adrian waved his hand indifferently.

The regret Dennis mentioned was naturally Kate's departure. During this period, Adrian did not deliberately promote Kate's departure, nor did he deliberately conceal it. So everyone around him knew that this was a good thing. Fortunately, after the Golden Globe Awards dinner, he was busy inviting guests to party. The original plan to disclose Kate's true girlfriend in front of reporters was not implemented. Otherwise, the media would definitely be very lively now.

real?Dennis looked at him in confusion, as if he was a little disbelief.

OK, let's talk about other ones.Adrian was too lazy to explain.

He really didn't take it seriously. With Roger as his agent, he knew Kate's every move.

If there was any trouble with her departure, it was that his life became a little disordered.

When Kate was by her before, most of the documents that Adrian had placed at home were sorted out by her. Now she suddenly left and suddenly became messy. It took Adrian several days to sort out the things she left behind, so he just asked Lafen to help find someone who can be both a secretary and an assistant.

When I was making movies the previous few times, my assistant was different every time, and I had to work in for a while, so Adrian simply wanted to find someone to participate in these two positions.

I'm busy with a TV series, the idea that came up with your new girlfriend on the day of the party.Of course, I just provide conception and supervision at the beginning, and most of the work is handed over to them.

Adrian talked about what happened in the conference room just now and was about to bring the topic to "Four Weddings and One Funeral", Dennis's doubtful voice sounded: My new girlfriend?When did I have a new girlfriend?

Adrian raised his eyebrows: What, isn’t Miss Jennifer Aniston your new girlfriend?

How could Jane be my new girlfriend?Dennis became more and more inexplicable, we were just ordinary friends.

Ordinary friend?Why did you go that night in the party... Adrian was a little confused.

What happened to me that night?Dennis still doesn't understand.

Adrian twitched the corner of his mouth, and knocked his hand on the desk a few times. After pondering for a few seconds, he looked at him: Okay, let's talk about what you met.
