Adriaan pushed open the door, took a few steps, and sat behind the desk. He looked at the little girl who was sitting obediently in front of him. Although he had seen her during the first audition, he still couldn't help but admire her in his heart. Blonde hair, brown eyes, a round face, and the little dress she was wearing, as well as the snow-white nylon stockings on her calves. She looked pure and beautiful, like a little princess on a trip. Even though she looked a little older after growing up, and her face was a little wider, she was still a beautiful girl.
The little girl in front of him was Kirsten Dunst. She was a child star and had played many highly rated roles at a young age. However, she only became an A-list celebrity after "Spiderman."
No wonder Vladimir Nabokov could write that kind of novel. Adriaan thought about this and narrowed his eyes as he looked at Kirsten. Compared to Natalie and her delicate temperament, Kirsten was undoubtedly better at dressing up and knew how to express her current cuteness and beauty.
After realizing that his gaze was a little unscrupulous, Adriaan immediately lowered his head and coughed to hide it. He quickly adjusted his emotions and said, "Sorry, I left for a while. After reading your resume, I was surprised, Miss Kirsten. I didn't expect you to have such rich acting experience."
After hearing this compliment, the little girl immediately showed a trace of a proud smile.
"Now, please tell me what you think Matilda is like," Adriaan continued.
"She's a precocious girl, but at the same time, she's very naive …" As if eager to show off, Kirsten immediately told him her story. She had obviously done a lot of homework and grasped the characteristics of the character very well.
"So, what do you think of the relationship between her and Leon?"
"If you were in her shoes, what would you do?"
After asking a few questions, Adrian saw that he was almost done with his homework and had a general idea of what to do. He nodded and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Kirsten. That's all for now. We'll give you a call for more details."
As he spoke, he closed the folder in his hand. The little girl in front of him obviously felt something. After a flash of anxiety in her eyes, she suddenly asked as she stood up, "Mr. Adriaan, can I ask you a question?"
Adriaan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Of course."
"Can you tell me what you think of me?" Kirsten asked, pretending to be casual.
"Hmm … Smart and mature, unlike your peers. You will be an excellent actress," Adriaan said after thinking for a few seconds.
"Anything else?" The little girl immediately revealed a look of disappointment. She cupped her face and placed her elbows on the table, looking at Adrian with a cute and obedient look of expectation.
Facing this pure and flawless face, Adriaan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. After a flash of surprise passed through his eyes, he controlled himself and said, "Cute, beautiful, beautiful, lovable."
"Then …" A flash of hesitation flashed across Kirsten's slightly chubby face, and her breathing became rapid. However, after gritting her teeth, her determination was replaced by determination. She looked at Adriaan and made her smile even cuter. Then, she whispered, "How about something interesting, Mr. Adriaan?"
"Sorry, what did you say?" The folder almost fell from his hand. Although Adriaan controlled himself in time and looked at the little girl in front of him calmly, the shock in his heart was indescribable. Of course, he knew what she meant. If this had come from the mouth of an adult female actor, he would have flirted with her. If he had a good chat with her, they could have a deeper conversation, but … this …
"I mean …" Kirsten had obviously made up her mind. She looked at Adriaan with a cute smile and said slowly, "How about something interesting, Mr. Adriaan?"
As she spoke, she brushed her long hair behind her ears. Her innocent and pure face suddenly had a hint of bewitching charm and temptation. It was as if an angel and a devil had descended on this little girl.
"I think I might have heard wrong …" Adriaan took a deep breath and said calmly. Although he never hid his desire, it didn't mean he was a fool.
"I have been shooting commercials since I was three years old. I was also a small model for Ford cars. I acted in my first movie in 1989. I like that feeling, the wonderful feeling of being watched by others, but they always think … and my parents agree … To tell you the truth, Mr. Adriaan, I am tired of playing those obedient and cute little girl roles! I also hate my hateful parents who always tell me what to do in this aspect! I need to break through. I want to be beautiful. I don't want to be called a little girl anymore, acting with cuteness! I want to be watched by more people and get more praise! As long as I can achieve this goal, I don't care what means I have to use! " These words had probably been bottled up in her heart for too long. In the end, Kirsten was almost venting. Her cute little face became a little distorted, but it had an inexplicable charm.
Kirsten quickly realized that she had lost her composure. She reached out and brushed her hair behind her temples. She continued to look at Adriaan with the same charming and pure smile. "I know you can help me realize this wish, right? Mr. Adriaan? You have to know that people in the industry call you the Miracle Director. "
Seeing that Adriaan was about to say something, the little girl immediately put her middle finger on her lips. "Don't be in a hurry to deny it, Mr. Adriaan. I am still confident in my observation skills."
She slowly brushed away the hair that had drifted to the corner of her mouth and said in a sweet and seductive voice, "I can do many things, Mr. Director."
Even with Adriaan's self-control, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He finally understood the meaning behind the phrase "Lorita, the light of my life, the fire of my desire, my sin, my soul." The young girl's ability to change from immaturity to maturity without completely changing was enough to make anyone fall head over heels for her.
Taking another gentle breath, Adriaan calmed himself down and said in a calm tone, "I also believe in this, Miss Kirsten. You will find a role that suits you."
This was equivalent to telling the other party that she could leave. Adriaan had never been a good person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to Sarah's deal. He also wouldn't have signed Britney and Christina when MMC was disbanded, and he wouldn't have tried so hard to produce the movie This Killer Is Not Too Cold. Moreover, he had tried so hard to promote Pacino and Thompson to the top. Wasn't it to increase his reputation and give himself a halo of attraction?
However, his gaze was a little too blatant, and she was able to deduce his thoughts from it. Wasn't this a little too monstrous! It was no wonder that after filming "Interview with the Vampire", some people said that she had a 35-year-old heart hidden in her small body. Therefore, only God knew if this scheming little girl would turn around and buy him out.
"Don't worry, Mr. Adriaan. You can completely trust me," Kirsten said in a sweet voice, shaking her small body from time to time.
Completely trust you? How is that possible? Look at your situation! Adriaan, who was a little depressed, wanted to say this. Then, he narrowed his eyes. There was an obvious trace of anxiety on Kirsten's cute round face. Although she tried to straighten her body, it was trembling slightly. Adriaan suddenly had a feeling that if he really chased her out, she would immediately cry.
That meant … she wasn't sure. She was just taking a gamble. She was just staking it all on one throw! Therefore, everything she said should be true! Adriaan took a deep breath for the third time. He never thought that Kirsten, who was just a little girl, would actually be so unscrupulous in order to get what she wanted.
He didn't say anything. He just looked at her from head to toe, and from foot to head, under Kirsten's gaze.
The girl in front of him was stunned at first. Then, a trace of ecstasy flashed in her eyes, and the charm in her smile increased. "Time sometimes passes very quickly, Mr. Adriaan. Besides, I think you must have a way to prevent breaking the contract, right?"
She was indeed a precocious girl. She had guessed what he wanted to say so quickly. Adriaan praised in his heart. As soon as Kirsten said her first sentence, he had already pressed the recording pen in his arms. He had always kept this recording pen with him to prevent this kind of situation from happening. Everything that the other party said had been recorded, and he didn't say anything special. Therefore, if Kirsten really went back on her word, he just needed to secretly circulate this to immediately ruin her reputation.
"Well, nice to meet you, Miss Kirsten." After Adriaan secretly turned off the recording pen, he smiled at the little girl and said. At the same time, he reached out and gently stroked her face. A kind of pleasure surged in his heart.
"Me too, Mr. Adriaan." Kirsten didn't resent his caress at all. The charm in her smile disappeared, leaving only an innocent, pure, and adorable look.
"I already got the role, didn't I?" She proudly puffed out her small chest, but unexpectedly, Adriaan shook his head. "My answer is — no!"
What a joke. The role of Matilda had already been decided internally. How could it be given to Kirsten?
"What do you mean?" Kirsten's expression suddenly changed.
"Don't worry, dear." Adriaan smiled and waved his hand. "I think you can play some better roles. For example, a role that is qualified to be nominated for the Golden Globes and the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress."
"Best Supporting Actress nomination?" Kirsten was stunned. Then, a fanatical look flashed in her eyes. "Really?!"
"Of course. I happen to have two movies in preparation. One is about a little girl from the 19th century, and the other is about a vampire who is 35 years old on the inside but only looks 11 or 12 years old. You can choose between the two." Adriaan said with a smile. Once again, he reached out and stroked Kirsten's obedient face. "I think you are fully qualified to play this kind of role."
A trace of a smile spread across Kirsten's face. "Thank you very much for your generosity, Mr. Adriaan."
"You're welcome. I think —" Adriaan reluctantly withdrew his hand, still staring at the little girl's face. "We will have more opportunities to work together in the future, right?"
"Of course!" Kirsten once again showed an innocent smile.
