"Smaller, the fire needs to be smaller. Yes, yes, yes, that's it. Sometimes, whether the fire is enough or not, depends on this one or two seconds." In the clean and tidy kitchen, Lin Zhiling was teaching Gao Yuanyuan how to make soup. Moreover, she was very serious about it, and it looked like she was really serious.
The Asian women that Adriaan kept around, from Ji Hui to Lin Xilei, could basically make two or three good dishes. Even Lin Zhiling, who didn't know how to cook at first, eventually mastered it. After all, food occupied a lot of weight in Eastern culture, and didn't the saying go, if you want to capture a man's heart, you need to capture a man's stomach?
Therefore, the women would sometimes exchange cooking skills, just like now. Of course, Lin Zhiling taught Gao Yuanyuan to make soup not just for this.
"Thank you, Sister Zhiling, sometimes I don't know how to thank you." After turning off the fire and tasting it, Gao Yuanyuan also said this sincerely.
"No need, we are all in a foreign country, it's normal for us to help each other. Xi Lei is usually very busy, and I happen to have a lot of time." Lin Zhiling smiled, then leaned over and kissed her on the lips, then grabbed her waist with both hands, "Besides, Yuanyuan, you are so beautiful, it makes my heart beat."
"Okay, Sister Zhiling." Gao Yuanyuan began to be shy again. Although she had fought with Adriaan many times, she still looked like this when she got out of bed.
"You're making me feel … very strange," she said shyly.
Lin Zhiling was about to speak when she heard Adriaan's voice coming from the door, "Ladies, how long are you going to wait? If you don't come, Xi Lei and I will start. "
"Coming right away." Gao Yuanyuan quickly picked up the soup pot and walked out. Lin Zhiling was about to follow, but she was stopped by Adriaan who came in.
"You just sexually harassed Yuanyuan again, huh?" Seeing Gao Yuanyuan out of the kitchen, Adriaan half-jokingly reached out to lift Lin Zhiling's chin and asked in a questioning tone.
"How can you say that, Eide!" The girl then showed a wronged look, "How can this be sexual harassment? This is just intimate play between sisters, sexual harassment is clearly like this. "
She said as she grabbed his other hand and put it on her buttocks, but her expression was still very resentful, as if she was complaining why he didn't sexually harass her.
"Okay, okay." Adriaan laughed and squeezed twice, "You did well, Zhiling, I like it very much."
"That's good!" Lin Zhiling breathed a sigh of relief in an exaggerated manner. "I thought you would only like her type of woman in the future, but Yuanyuan does have a kind of pure taste, very likable."
"Alright, say what you want to say." Adrian then slapped her butt again.
"Since I did a good job — you said it yourself." Lin Zhiling held his arm and said coquettishly, "Shouldn't you reward me with something?"
"Oh? What reward do you want? " Adriaan deliberately moved a few inches away from her face, looked into her eyes, and asked. Lin Zhiling bit her lip and tilted her head, seeming a little embarrassed to speak.
From this, it could be seen the difference between Eastern women and Western women. Generally speaking, if they wanted a reward, Western women would directly point out what they wanted. They thought that since they had already given, it was natural for them to want something in return. On the other hand, Eastern women always hoped that the man would speak first. Otherwise, it would make them think of a deal, even if that was the case.
Of course, this was a characteristic under normal circumstances. Although Lin Zhiling also had this factor, it was more because of what she wanted.
"You have to know that you have two commercial blockbusters next year." Adriaan showed a look of insight.
"One of them is just a small supporting role." Lin Zhiling pouted, seemingly dissatisfied.
"But you are the female lead in the other one, and you are partnering with Will Smith." Adriaan chuckled. "I changed the role to Asian under a lot of pressure."
After that, he hugged her waist and bit her earlobe. "Don't worry, Zhiling. To be honest, you still need to practice. You have to know that if you don't have the ability, it won't work even if you have good public relations. So don't be so greedy. Many people praised your acting in 'The Scorpion King'. You might as well continue to perform well in these two movies and sharpen your acting skills. When the time comes, you will naturally have your share. "
Hearing the last sentence, Lin Zhiling's eyes lit up, and then she smiled even more charmingly. "Okay, I'll listen to you. Do you need Cassandra to accompany you tonight?"
Just as she said, Lin Xilei was a manager after all, and she had a lot of work to do every day. Therefore, Lin Zhiling was mostly responsible for bringing Gao Yuanyuan to adapt to the American environment. Lin Zhiling was an actress, so she could rest as long as she didn't have any work. In addition, Lin Xilei had instilled a lot of ideas in her, so she got along quite well with Gao Yuanyuan. She never mentioned some sensitive topics, nor did she act superior to others.
However, this was just the beginning. Slowly, Lin Zhiling and Gao Yuanyuan became more and more intimate. They hugged, kissed, and even bathed together. After all, Lin Zhiling had lived in Canada and had more contact with Western society. In addition, she had been by Adriaan's side for the past few years and had acted in many movies, so she was much more experienced than Gao Yuanyuan. Gao Yuanyuan didn't notice anything wrong.
Therefore, after getting used to the intimate play between women, Gao Yuanyuan's passion in threes and foursome became very smooth, so Lin Zhiling contributed a lot.
Since that was the case, Adrian had to reward her. Hence, after "Scorpion King", he gave her two roles in commercial blockbusters. One was Emmerich's latest disaster film, 'The Day After Tomorrow', which was about the greenhouse effect and how Americans fled to Mexico to take refuge. After failing with 'Godzilla', Emmerich stayed dormant for almost two years, then wrote this script. Then he went to Adriaan without thinking too much.
Back then, he had chosen him to direct 'Independence Day', and he had also warned him about some problems when making 'Godzilla'. Unfortunately, Emmerich didn't listen to him at that time. This time, he finally wrote a new script, so it was normal for him to show it to the best director and producer in Hollywood for support.
Adriaan, who was familiar with Emmerich's achievements, immediately decided to invest in it. Not only would the film make money, but it could also increase his woman's fame and improve her acting skills. He definitely couldn't let it go. There weren't many important female roles, only two. One was a female student, and the other was an Asian female scientist. They didn't need much acting skills, so the female student was given to Kaiden, and the Asian female scientist was given to Lin Zhiling.
However, if the female students could more or less drive the development of the main plot, the Asian female scientist was dispensable. If it was replaced with other characters, the desired effect could also be achieved, so Lin Chi-ling was somewhat dissatisfied. Adriaan also knew this, so he asked her to play the female lead in another film, which was adapted from Asimov's short story, 'Public Enemy of Machinery'.
It sounded a bit unbelievable. The original white female scientist was replaced by an Asian? But it wasn't difficult to do. Even the male lead could be changed to a black man, so it wasn't a big deal to change the female lead to an Asian one. They could use the excuse of a diverse society to shut the mouths of many opponents. Besides …
Anyway, it wasn't a problem. Under Adriaan's insistence, the two films were about to start shooting. It seemed that he favored Lin Zhiling very much among Asians. Ji Hui had been with him for seven or eight years, but she had never received such treatment.
Well, Adriaan didn't deny this. After all, Lin Zhiling was worthy of his love now. Not to mention that she was so obedient, as docile as a kitten, and never forgot to show her sexy charm, as long as it was Adriaan's request, she would almost never refuse. Her temper also depended on the occasion. She was the only woman who had filmed several heavy themes such as' Drink Semen ', so Adriaan should give her a reward.
Of course, Adriaan was not a person who didn't consider the consequences. These two roles seemed to be good, but in fact … There were always very few popular Asian roles, and he couldn't give them all to one woman. Anyway, this was not the reward that Lin Zhiling wanted the most. When the time came, he could use it as a legitimate reason to make her obedient.
"The soup that Lin Zhiling and Yuanyuan cooked together was very good, but Xi Lei's main dish was also good." After a harmonious Chinese dinner, Adriaan commented with satisfaction.
"Eide is always like this, refusing to take sides. Although it's very pleasing to the ear, it inevitably sounds a little fake." Lin Xilei snorted softly. The title of "boss" would only be used when she was alone with Adriaan.
"You used the wrong word. 'Fifty strokes' is a derogatory term, Xi Lei." Lin Zhiling corrected her and then shrugged. "It can't be helped. None of us likes to hear bad comments from him, right?"
Gao Yuanyuan didn't speak. She just smiled and tasted the dessert. When she was about to finish eating, she hesitated and plucked up her courage. "Eide."
"What is it?" Adriaan instantly turned his head around.
"En …" Her pearly white teeth gently moved across her lips before she carefully said, "I heard from Mom and Dad on the phone that things are much better on their side. Many people are moving around outside, so I'm thinking when I can go back to take a look. Also … the production crew of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre is also asking me when they can go back to do publicity."
"Is that so …" Adriaan thought for a while. "I've also heard this news. Because the virus isn't suitable for hot weather, the epidemic has been completely controlled. However, the alert hasn't been completely lifted yet … How about August? By then, the epidemic should be completely controlled, and The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre should be broadcasted around that time, right? "
Then, without waiting for Gao Yuanyuan to reply, he explained, "Although sci-fi TV series like Battlestar Galactica don't need to be broadcasted after filming, they can't be broadcasted at the same time like sitcoms. Therefore, you have to finish at least half or even two-thirds of the filming before you can have a long holiday. Although your scenes are relatively few, they're all very important, so you have to do your best to complete them. The producers and directors all praised you, so you can't let them down, right? "
Battlestar Galactica had officially started filming. As a sci-fi TV series, the investment was relatively large. Moreover, most of the new TV series that were scheduled for the fall season were starting to prepare their samples at this time. Therefore, it was normal to start filming now, just like Jessica's Doomsday Black Angel that had already finished filming.
However, what was different from her previous life was that there wasn't a miniseries this time. Under Adriaan's insistence, Universal, who was in charge of production, directly started filming a series of TV series. In her previous life, Universal originally only wanted to film one miniseries, but because the ratings were unexpectedly good, it actually had four to five million viewers on non-basic cable channels. It should be known that it was considered quite good for basic cable channels to have ratings of close to ten million viewers. Non-basic cable channels faced even fewer viewers, with an average of around two to three million viewers. Being able to have more than four million viewers was considered very popular.
Of course, non-basic cable channels did have TV series with ratings of over ten million viewers, but none had been released yet, and there was only one.
Since the miniseries' ratings were so high, it was only a matter of time before it was turned into a TV series. Thus, Battlestar Galactica became very popular. Now that they had Adriaan, they could naturally skip this step and go straight to filming a TV series. As for the content, they didn't have to worry or regret, they just needed to add it into the TV series.
Gao Yuanyuan's character was an Asian female pilot, a robot undercover among humans. She didn't know it, but once she was activated, she would become a dangerous character. To be honest, this kind of role was not a small challenge for her. Before this, she had always played the role of the girl next door, and China's girl next door.
However, when people were under great pressure, they could often unleash their potential. If Charlize wasn't a good example, then Lin Xilei should be fine, right? When she first entered the agency, she was discriminated against by many people. Just like Charlize, there were endless rumors about her using her beauty to get where she was. Not only did she not get overwhelmed, but with Adriaan's support, she made some achievements. Even if the rumors hadn't completely disappeared, people who met her at various Hollywood gatherings had to show due respect.
Gao Yuanyuan was the same. Although she had never played a role like this before, she could work hard to learn. Otherwise, why would Adriaan arrange for her to receive acting training? Not to mention, after a few months of training, she could basically speak in fluent English without an accent. She also had no problem reading a script. This was the advantage of not being trained in acting. In terms of acting theory, she was basically a blank piece of paper. She could alter and change it at will.
In addition, Adriaan gave considerable support. Not only did he arrange for her to receive the best acting training, he also asked Lin Xilei to specially find a designer to shape her body and image. Like Liu Yifei, after she had made some progress, she also carried out targeted training. At the same time, she also made appropriate adjustments to the role.
In the original version, the pilot had a ponytail. In the eyes of Easterners, she might not be beautiful, but her figure was excellent, especially the lines of her buttocks, which were not much worse than that of Western women. Although Gao Yuanyuan's figure was not bad, it was not comparable to the pilot's for the time being, even if the body shaping course was very helpful to her. Therefore, this sexy characteristic had to be taken out and replaced with something more suitable for her.
Therefore, this character's hair was cut short. On one hand, a high and round ponytail was relatively not very good-looking, and on the other hand, she looked more capable with short hair. Then, she did more exercise and fitness, as well as some appropriate firearms training and simple piloting lessons. In the final makeup photo, she had a revealing heroic spirit, and at the same time, the pure feeling did not completely disappear. Because of this, the designer who did the design for her was full of praise, thinking that she was unusually sexy.
With the tailor-made image and personal efforts, during the period of shooting, she had quite a lot of highlights. It was not in vain that Adriaan spent so much time and effort. The things that the producer and director praised about her were not baseless.
"Then … what if we can't finish shooting in August?" Gao Yuanyuan thought about it and asked carefully.
"If you can maintain your current state, I can ask them to make adjustments and shoot your scenes first," Adriaan said immediately. "So whether we can finish shooting in August depends on you."
"Okay, then it's settled." Gao Yuanyuan nodded with a smile.
"Well, it seems that we have to drink to Yuanyuan." Lin Zhiling spoke up at this time, and Lin Xilei immediately handed over a bottle of whiskey in tacit understanding.
"You want to drink this? Can we change it to something else? Like champagne or something … "Gao Yuanyuan, who was shocked, said with some embarrassment.
"How can champagne make you show your joyful mood, Yuanyuan?" Lin Xilei said with a smirk.
"Yeah, if you're not used to it, we can use white wine, Taiwan's or mainland's. Anyway, we have some collection." Lin Zhiling supported her face with her hands and said provocatively.
Looking at Adriaan who was smiling but still talking, Gao Yuanyuan knew that she would definitely not let it go today. In addition, the big stone in her heart had been lifted, so she puffed out her chest in a rare heroic manner. "Then let's do it!"
What a cute girl. Adriaan sighed in his heart, and then nodded with satisfaction. It was a good choice to abduct her to the United States, and she got along well with Lin Zhiling and Lin Xilei …
Thinking of this, he suddenly frowned again. Judging from Gao Yuanyuan's performance, she could be put on the shelf. Perhaps she could not reach the level of Kate and the others, but she should have no problem being on the same level as Shuang Lin. But … forget it. Anyway, he had to go to the mainland at the end of the year, and it would naturally be revealed. After all, he had been there twice, and they would definitely express something.
