reborn in america

After the filming of "Shh" was finished at the end of last month, Adam hurriedly helped Carol celebrate a somewhat humble birthday. Although they said their birthday, both of them had something on their minds. They just thought that it was a big time after all. I haven't seen each other for a long time, so I took this opportunity to meet, but in this supposedly warm birthday, apart from the time when Adam cooks for Carol himself, there are still some moments of returning to the deep love between the two , When dinner started, we chatted a few words, and before we knew it, we talked about the development of Eden, the detailed discussion about the listing later, and the follow-up development of Nirvana. After all, the Inspur portal website has been prepared for a long time, and the structure of the website has long been After the setup is complete, the content is also being actively prepared and arranged. Negotiations have been made with several sources, including the "California Times", to extract copyrights for news quotes, and testing can begin at the end of the month.

Regarding the importance of the portal website to Nirvana and even the Garden of Eden, Adam has emphasized how many times. Although the company is very puzzled by Adam's obvious allocation of the company's resources to the portal website, after several rounds of capital injection, Adam's shares have also increased. It has risen to more than 80.00% today, so no one can influence Adam's resolution, and so far, all the judgments Adam has made have not made mistakes, so even though some people have murmured in their hearts, they have not shown any opposition Views.

At this dinner party, after the two had a brief chat, Carol felt Adam's strength, so he stopped talking. Adam's craftsmanship was good, but given the slightly condensed atmosphere, it was a bit wasteful.The grand fireworks that were originally prepared were set off in a hurry. The two leaned on each other and stood in front of the glass window, watching the gorgeous fireworks blooming in the sky. They didn't say a word, but just stood quietly, not knowing what each was thinking.

Adam is actually very clear that because of his own rebirth to grasp the so-called future trends at work, there is always a point of view of "you don't understand me, what I think is the right one", so for all other people's opinions, at best Superficial acceptance, and then act according to your own ideas.Although it turned out that Adam's approach was correct, it made many people, such as Carol, feel slightly offended and felt disrespected.

But Adam is impossible and unwilling to compromise in this regard, even if it is necessary to do some soft handling for the sake of feelings, in his opinion, this is too false, not his style, and because of Adam's career madness The state of the situation makes him and Carol get together less often, and even when he is busy, he may not see each other for half a month or a month. Even if there are one or two phone calls, it is because of work matters that need to be dealt with and paid attention to. The two love each other. For so many years, in the eyes of everyone, the indestructible and perfect love has fluctuated so early, which is beyond Adam's imagination, and he is unwilling to think too much about it.

After a night in the same bed with different dreams, the two separated after hugging and kissing each other at the gate of the luxurious manor. Carol was going to deal with the listing, while Adam returned to Hollywood to supervise the editing and post-production related work of the movie "Hush", as well as The current preparatory work for the TV series code-named "X".

And one of the key points of the so-called preparatory work is naturally to choose two protagonists. The success of the protagonists is related to the success of the TV series. Naturally, it cannot be sloppy, but in fact Adam has strictly set the audition requirements, and Adam's audition requirements can be met. , basically there will be no big problems, anyway, it is just a TV series, not a movie, and the actors are much more tolerant in terms of acting skills, so it doesn't matter if they are directly handed over to the assistant director.

But Adam was a little restless because of emotional matters, so he couldn't edit "Shh" quietly. Among the many professional editors in Hollywood, the editors who edit some movies are definitely at a good level, so Adam can feel relieved when he is assigned to make the first cut.

He himself chose to prepare for matters related to the TV series. It was a diversion of attention. His relationship with Carol fell to a low point. This was an unspeakable event for Adam. His love and the relationship between him and his family are almost the most important and most important thing to him, so after returning to Hollywood and thinking about it for a few days, he decided to do something to save it. He didn't want to wait until that day If the two are really strangers and then talk about this matter, it will be irreversible.

As he thought about it, he looked up at the young actors who were interviewing, and he had to sigh that Hollywood is indeed Hollywood, and even according to his strictest and even harshest requirements, there are still many who meet them.

But for Adam, in addition to meeting those requirements, the actor in his mind needs to have a temperament that can fit the protagonist of the script he wrote, although this is for many actors with excellent acting skills and handsome looks It's not fair, but where is fairness in Hollywood?Too many lucky people who can get to the top rely not only on their own abilities (physical and acting skills), but also on luck.

If there is no Pretty Woman, maybe there will be no fame for Julia Roberts, and how long will it take for Xiao Li to get on top if there is no big boat?The fate of people is a difficult thing to say. For example, when Adam saw the slightly shy handsome boy in front of him, he decided almost instantly to make him one of the protagonists of his first TV series.

……

Norton looked up at the few interviewers in front of him, apart from the well-known Adam Baker, there were also the assistant director of the TV series and the staff of the Screen Actors Union, but no matter who they were, they would immediately look at the serious and slightly frowning man sitting in the middle youth there.

Wearing a casual shirt with disheveled hair, he lowered his head and wrote something on the paper before he came in. When he stood in the center of the audition room and began to introduce himself as usual, Adam raised his head and showed His handsome face.

He set his eyes on Norton, wandered up and down, then lowered his head and flipped through the actor files in his hand, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Norton, Norton Adams, your resume is the most rudimentary I have seen today. One, I hope you can give me a good reason why I chose you, Todd gave him line number three."

Norton looked at the young man in front of him who was about the same age as himself. A few years ago, he was as unknown as himself, but in just a few years, holding a novel with a global sales volume of more than 90 million books, he became the best-selling novelist in the [-]s of the [-]th century. , his works cover two categories of fantasy and science fiction. In addition, his screenwriting and directing works have achieved great success. He is the idol of countless teenagers in the United States and even the world.

Norton has heard his friend Melissa popularize science for him countless times, and he has also heard about Adam's legend countless times in Hollywood. Even during his time in Hollywood, he has witnessed how Adam became a real American idol. However, Even after hearing countless versions of the legendary story, he always had an unreal feeling about Adam, as if he was watching a legendary legend, but no matter how legendary the legend was, it had nothing to do with him.

But today when I stood in front of Adam and saw that legendary young man, when I was swayed up and down by the cold eyes of the other party, Norton shuddered violently, and then seemed to have entered the world where Adam was. .

After Adam finished speaking, he took a thin piece of paper from a middle-aged man, on which were written a few lines excerpted from the script, other than that, he did not give any introduction, about the situation of the protagonist, As well as the objects and scenes faced, all need Norton himself to associate and express through a few short lines.

This is not an easy task for an actor, because the same line can be interpreted in many ways in different scenes, and the effect will naturally be different. Norton thought of what his agent said before he came in.

Acting in your true colors, this is the simplest and most error-free way for all new actors, but there is also a problem that completely shows your essence, and it depends entirely on the degree of coincidence between yourself and the role .

Norton has only been in Hollywood for only a year or two, so he has the deepest experience of himself in high school that he has not completely forgotten, so he gave himself a few seconds to prepare and searched for past memories and substituted himself in it.

……

Adam looked at Norton who was reciting his lines seriously in front of him, and suddenly thought of Carol many years ago, high-spirited and arrogant, with the arrogance and childishness unique to teenagers, shining brilliantly in that small world.

He knocked heavily on the table with a pen, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, you go out first."

Seeing Norton, who was equally high-spirited because he entered the role, suddenly looked shocked and disappointed after his own words, and then politely bid farewell to leave, Adam shook his head with a smile, and said to Todd next to him: "This role is settled, That's him."

Todd felt a little regretful. In his opinion, Norton, who had just left, was quite good in terms of appearance and fit with the character. He didn't expect to be driven away by Adam with a single sentence. He was trying to organize his words to fight for him. As a result, after hearing Adam's words, he suddenly looked confused: "What?"

"I said that the role of my younger brother Dylan is him. Next, we will mainly face the role of Kelvin." Adam did not explain why he made such a decision, but directly issued the next task.

"Ha, lucky boy." Although he didn't know why, Todd was still very happy that the actor he was looking forward to was selected by Adam. He looked at the other actors who were going to be interviewed later, and secretly guessed in his heart which lucky one would get the award. Under the role of the last protagonist.

The author has something to say: this piece was very difficult to write, and I had to edit it many times. I still had something to do in the afternoon, and I was always worried that I would not be able to update it in time, so I finally finished it before going out.
