Chapter 467

"Oh, I'm really sorry … Eide." The girl who had fallen into Adriaan's arms quickly grabbed his arm and propped herself up. After taking a closer look, she smiled charmingly.

"It's okay. I'm glad I could help you, Drew." Adriaan hugged her from behind and put his right hand on her flat belly. Then, he gestured to the people nearby that it was okay.

"I'm so happy to see you at the premiere of The Godfather's movie, Eide!" Drew Barrymore said as she turned around and put her hand on his shoulder intimately. This way, she was almost lying on him.

"Me too. You're still so beautiful and cute." Adrian didn't have the slightest intention of pushing her away. Instead, he reached out and pinched her chin. From the feeling he felt when they bumped into each other, he knew that she did it on purpose.

"You're still so good at coaxing girls." Drew giggled. "By the way, I haven't thanked you yet."

"Thank me?" Adriaan asked knowingly.

"Yes. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the Golden Globes." Drew blinked. Her youthful baby face looked especially cute when she did that.

As an independent film, Desperate Gamblers had only been released in a few cinemas for a short period of time. However, Drew's performance in it had been praised by the critics, saying that it was one of her best roles in recent years. After she was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the Golden Globes under Bosworth Pictures, there were even more praises for her. Many people thought that she had gotten rid of the shadow brought about by her decadent life in the past few years, so it was not surprising that she was behaving like this now.

"This is what you've worked hard for, isn't it?" Adriaan said sincerely. Then, he changed the topic. "In fact, I think you're fully qualified to win a Golden Globes for Best Supporting Actress."

Drew's eyes lit up. With more than ten years of acting experience, how could she not know what it meant? Although the Golden Globes weren't as important as the Oscars, even a Golden Globes could bring unexpected benefits to her in her current situation.

"Do you really think so, Eide?" Drew stroked the hair on her face, making her smile more tempting and provocative.

"Of course, I never thought of you as a vase." Adriaan smiled playfully. "Remember what I told you before? You can start your own movie company and develop into a romantic comedy. "

"Why must it be a romantic comedy?" Drew looked curious.

"Because people like …" Adriaan suddenly paused and looked at Drew with a strange expression. The other party still had a charming smile on his face, as if her hand hadn't unzipped his zipper or reached inside.

"Yes, people like romantic comedies, but not every romantic comedy is popular." Drew's voice became soft, with an indescribable tenderness.

Adriaan looked around. Fortunately, the pillar they were leaning against was in the corner of the front hall. Compared to the center, there were fewer people. In addition, Drew's whole body was almost pressed against him, so there was no need to worry about being seen.

"This depends on the screenwriter and director's storytelling skills." Adriaan took a deep breath. "All stories are actually similar … The key lies in whether the screenwriter can be innovative when writing the story … Tsk … and whether the director can tell the story. If these two points are done well, then a romantic comedy will be half a success. As a producer, I can ignore the specific details, but I have to be confident in the big room …"

If it was just freestyle swimming at the beginning, jumping into the water and moving forward smoothly, then it would be figure gymnastics, twisting up and down with all kinds of tricks. However, a few minutes later, the figure gymnastics immediately turned into a 100-meter sprint, sprinting at the fastest speed. This alternating use, coupled with the excitement brought about by the surrounding environment, made both Drew and Adriaan extremely excited.

"Then … maybe you have a good script … Eide?" Drew's face slowly turned red, and her breathing became more and more rapid. Fine beads of sweat gently swayed on the tip of her nose, and her chest, which was pressed against Adriaan's body, was constantly moving up and down. Her eyes were full of excitement and lust.

"I have a few ideas … but that will take some time …" Even with Adriaan's self-control, his heart still beat faster, not to mention that he had to pay attention to his surroundings.

"I know there's a small storage room behind the theater. Since there's still some time before the movie starts, we can go there and talk in detail." Drew squinted her eyes slightly and gasped for breath. She deliberately squeezed her hand. "I've never forgotten what happened last time. It was really memorable. Maybe today, I can give you an equally memorable memory."

After thinking for only a few seconds, Adriaan took her arm and said, "It would be my honor."

It was finally time for the movie to start. After people entered the theater and took their seats, the lights in the theater were turned off, and the logos of Universal and Bosworth Pictures began to appear on the screen. Soon, the prelude was over, and the movie entered the main topic. Spielberg's design was indeed original. Although everyone knew that the movie would resurrect those ancient behemoths on the screen, in the first ten minutes or so, not a single dinosaur appeared.

At the same time, through the workers' injuries, the appearance of archaeologists, and the fat man who smuggled the embryos, the audience's appetite was constantly whetting their appetite, making them want to continue watching. Especially when the helicopter landed on the island, the enthusiastic music written by John Williams played at the right time, making people involuntarily excited.

"Sorry, please excuse me!" A low voice sounded in the seats. After squeezing his way over, the dark figure finally sat down on the only empty seat.

"Where have you been?" Kate, who was sitting next to her, finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing who it was. However, a very unnatural look flashed in her eyes, and her brows furrowed.

"I met an old friend, so we chatted for a while and discussed some matters regarding the production of the movie." Although because of the low light in the theater, Adriaan did not see her abnormality, he still replied in a very relaxed and normal tone.

"We deliberately found a place to discuss in detail, and we were a little happy talking, so we forgot the time. Sorry I'm late." He then took Kate's hand and patted it. "But it seems that I didn't miss the best place."

Kate hesitantly looked at Adriaan, and her other hand finally clenched into a fist. She seemed to have made up her mind to ask something. But just as she was about to speak, she sniffed again, and her brows suddenly furrowed again.

"Hey, the dinosaur is out!" Without waiting for her to think carefully, Adriaan whispered.

Kate involuntarily turned her head to the big screen, and as soon as she turned her head, she could no longer turn her head away. A huge long-necked dinosaur that occupied almost half of the entire screen appeared in the audience's line of sight, accompanied by bursts of hissing sounds. That almost fake scene stunned everyone at this moment. Many of the audience couldn't help but open their mouths wide, as if the dinosaurs from millions of years ago had really come back to life.

At this moment, even though they had been baptized by "Terminator 2," the people present were completely attracted by these dinosaurs made by the CG. Well, a few people like Lucas who were in charge of post-production did not, because they had seen it countless times. In addition, there was one person who was also indifferent, and that was Adriaan, who had been bombarded by countless better special effects.

Of course, he still exclaimed a few words of praise for the appearance of the long-necked dinosaur, but he quickly came back to his senses. Seeing that the people around him, including Kate, were in shock, he took this opportunity to reminisce about the passionate moment before.

To be honest, at first, he didn't want to do it with this woman again. Helping her win the Golden Globes for Best Supporting Actress was just to do her a favor. Anyway, it was not suitable for Monica to win it now. Besides, it was much easier to influence the judges of the Golden Globes than the judges of the Oscars. Although it was just an invitation to a movie party and a small gift such as red wine before leaving, it was enough to make them a little biased during the judging.

Of course, other companies would also do the corresponding PR, and the judges themselves would be very careful to guard their bottom line. At this time, it depended on the means and propriety of PR.

As for the production company, this was originally something that Drew would do, and he had already mentioned it at the celebration party of "The Shawshank Redemption." It was not a big deal to go with the flow and explain a little more in detail now. In Hollywood, production companies founded by big stars were everywhere, but most of these companies were empty shells because their fame itself was a kind of resource. When needed, it was easy to use their own name to pull in investments, and then hire a good team through their connections. After the production was completed, they would find a larger company to distribute it. Everything was very simple.

However, he did not expect this woman to directly stick to him and so boldly tease him. Naturally, Adriaan would not be polite. He had to admit that Drew did have good taste, and he did whatever he wanted. No wonder he managed the production company well.

Of course, Adriaan was still just playing around. This was Hollywood, and he had no long-term interest in her. However, seeing that she had worked hard in the storage room before, it was okay to give her more benefits. Like before, this was still just a deal, and he believed that Drew also understood this.

"I can't believe they actually made such a perfect dinosaur!" Kate's slightly excited voice rang in his ears at this time. The plot on the screen had begun to advance to the laboratory. Adriaan immediately came back to his senses and clapped his hand. "Of course, they are the best special effects studio."

As he said this, he glanced around. Where was Monica sitting at this time?
