Chapter 30: Michael Eisner's invitation
"Ah!?" Lester did not expect Eric to suddenly ask Amy Pascal: "Pascal... Ms. Pascal, she resigned."
Eric did not understand: "Resign, why?"
Lester’s brain flew for a few seconds and said: “I’m not too sure, maybe the company didn’t arrange her to participate in the “Little Ghosts” project. She was dissatisfied and resigned.”
Eric saw from the glittering eyes of Lester that he was lying, but did not dismantle it. He disappointed with the disappointment: "This is really a pity. If so, then I will leave."
It wasn't until Eric walked into the elevator that Leicester knocked on the door and walked into the office of Blount Cohen.
Blount Cohen had no longer had a smile when he was welcoming Eric, and his eyebrows were holding a file tightly, but the focal length was obviously not above.
"Mr. Cohen, this is what you want." Putting the folder in front of Blount Cohen, Lester hesitated, or said: "I just met Eric Williams outside. He asked Amy Pascal."
Blount Cohen raised his head and stared sharply at Leicester: "What do you say?"
Lester saw Blount Cohen's gaze subconsciously wanting to step back and stabilize his mind: "I told him that Amy had resigned because she was dissatisfied with the company's failure to involve her in the "Little Ghosts" project."
Blount Cohen stared silently at Leicester, and Leicester continued: "I don't think Eric Williams and Amy Pascal are very familiar, or else I won't ask me Amy. · Pascal's office is there, he will definitely go to Amy Davis in private. So he should not go to Amy to verify what I said."
"What do you think?" Blount Cohen's expression did not relax.
Lester's scalp is a bit numb, and the darkness of the sound is always met by himself: "Mr. Cohen, even if it is dismantled, there is nothing, but Eric will be dissatisfied with us. Help, he is dissatisfied with us, it is easier to accept Disney's conditions."
Blount Cohen thought about it, and he took a sigh of relief and waved his hand: "Well, let's go out first."
......
Driving on Hollywood Boulevard, Eric thought about the things he encountered in Colombia today. He can be sure that Colombia is not willing to start some actions because of the benefits of the gambling agreement. Now there are two clues. One is the compensation file in the hand, the other is Amy Pascal.
The car was parked in a parking lot far away from home. Eric walked into the house from the back door and went to the second floor to look outside. There were still many reporters staying in front of the door.
Outside the reporter found that Eric suddenly appeared in the second floor window, directly raised the camera to shoot. It seems that I need to move as soon as possible. Eric thinks like this, and then laughs at himself with a mockery. Even when Langkel’s family moved to Beverly Hills, Eric found out that he’s only now Broken a few hundred dollars, how can a poor word.
Something was fascinating, and the phone behind him suddenly rang.
Eric picked up the microphone: "Williams, are you?"
"Mr. Eric Williams? I am an assistant to Mr. Michael Eisner. Mr. Eisner wants to invite you to lunch. I don't know if Mr. Eric is free?"
Disney CEO Michael Eisner, Eric is not surprised why the other person knows his contact information, but is somewhat curious about the other party's intentions.
"Excuse me, can I know what it is?"
The other side said: "It is about Mr. Williams's "Little Ghosts", Disney is interested in the overseas copyright of "Little Ghosts"."
Since the conditions in Colombia are disappointing, Eric does not mind cooperating with other companies: "Well, where do you meet?"
"We will send someone to pick you up, and we will be there soon."
Eric hung up the phone, bowed his head and meditated for a while, picked up the phone again and called Jeffrey Hansen: "Jeffrey, I am Eric."
Jeffrey Hansen’s tone was a little excited: “Hey, Eric, The Little Ghosts’ box office was really amazing at the first week. I called you in the morning to congratulate you, but no one answered.”
"Oh, sorry, I was negotiating something at the Columbia company."
"It doesn't matter, Eric, are you looking for me?"
Eric said: "When I went to Colombia to talk with Blount Cohen on the next release of "The Devil's Home", I found a lot of embarrassing places. I feel that Colombia may be brewing some plots. And I listen to Leicester. Reid said that Amy suddenly resigned, I think you can contact her..."
Opposite Jeffrey Hansen hesitated: "Eric, this thing, I think it is useless to contact Amy, even if Amy resigns, her character will not reveal Colombian trade secrets. Can you tell me something unusual? You know, I have been in Hollywood for more than 20 years, maybe I can help you."
Eric saw that he couldn’t count on Amy Pascal, and he had to elaborate on the morning.
After listening to the sinking for two minutes, Jeffrey said: "Let the lawyer look at the compensation agreement. I think it is very likely that the problem is here. If not, I can't see other problems for the time being, Eric, you. Can you think of some other details?"
"Other details?" Eric said to himself, remembering the phone just saying: "Right, just before I called you, Disney's Michael Eisner suddenly invited me to lunch, saying yes. The overseas copyright of "Little Ghosts" is of interest."
"Michael Eisner..." Jeffrey read the name again, and the voice suddenly became a bit big. Then he said: "Michael Eisner is a friend with Blount Cohen, Eric, wait for you. Be cautious, don't agree with Michael Eisner. Colombia's "Little Ghosts" overseas is very low, and then Disney's Michael Eisner will contact you because of this, saying that there is no such thing. God does not believe in any relationship."
Eric listened to Jeffrey’s embarrassment, and the corner of his eye suddenly came out of the house and drove a silver car, so he said: “Jeffrey, Michael Eisner sent me to pick up my car.”
"Let's go, Eric, remember, the other person said that there is no need to promise anything."
Eric nodded and promised to hang up and go downstairs. After showing the identity to the other party, the car driver and another man crowded the reporter and guarded Eric into the car.
Half an hour later, Eric met Michael Eisner at the Hilton Hotel. At this time, Michael Eisner was only in his forties, and he was in his prime. Disney, who is one of the six majors at this age, is inevitably somewhat arrogant, but has not evolved into a later Disney tyrant. He is also very friendly.
"I really admire you, Eric. When I was 18, I was still complacent about being admitted to Denison University, but you have reached a height that many people can't reach for a lifetime." In the restaurant of the Hilter Hotel, Michael Eisner and Eric did not rush to talk about the topic, but chatted casually.
"Actually, I was originally preparing for the University of California, Mr. Eisner. Unfortunately, there were some changes in the family and I had to embark on the road of self-reliance. I was lucky."
Michael Eisner shook his head and said: "No, definitely not luck, Eric, although we only met for the first time, but I have learned about your deeds. If it is a talentless person, even lucky. The goddess will not hesitate to achieve such amazing achievements. You are one of the best young people I have ever seen."
"Thank you for your compliment, Mr. Eisner. You are also one of the people I admire most. No one knows a movie giant at your age."
Michael Eisner apparently enjoyed Eric's compliment and smiled: "Since I am one of them, I can know, Eric, which one do you most admire?"
Eric thought for a moment and said: "The most admired should be Howard Hughes."
"Oh," Michael Eisner nodded and said, "That is indeed a legendary figure. Speaking, Eric, there are some similarities between the two of you. Maybe you are better than him. One thing, the reason why he can achieve such great achievements is largely due to the inheritance of his father's huge legacy. And you have not relied on anyone, and now it is almost the youngest billionaire."
Eric listened to Michael Eisner's compliments and smiled a little. If it weren't born again, he might now be shooting TV ads like certain health products in the company's rudimentary studio.
If you ignore Michael Eisner's arbitrariness, he is indeed a very charismatic person. Two people had a lunch at a lunch, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant. If it wasn’t for Jeff Jeff Hansen’s call in advance, and Eric’s vigilance against Michael Eisner, Eric might have been dating Michael Eisner at this time.
Waiting for the waiter to remove the cutlery, Michael Eisner said: "Well, Eric, let's talk about business."
