Chapter 35: Change the day show love to show you
Eric is about to speak, and Barry Diller continues: "Eric, don't rush to refuse. Maybe you don't know, Stewart Ranker, the actor of "The Little Devil", has signed a contract with CAA, CAA. In recent years, the expansion has been rapid and the appetite has grown. Michael Owitz, a few days ago, was dissatisfied with the arrangement of MGM in a movie and directly broke into the MGM headquarters. Mei CEO had a big fight, and MGM had to make a compromise. I can imagine that if you make "Little Ghosts" again in the future, CAA will definitely open the lion."
Although Barry Diller said it makes sense, Eric refused directly. "Little Ghosts" requires Stewart Longkel to be a fake, but Stewart Langkel also needs "Little Ghosts" to stabilize his reputation.
The former Macquarie Calkin was only able to get the work of "Little Ghosts", and other films were flat. Eric does not believe that this situation will change. If the CAA really can't tell the situation, the lion will open its mouth and drag it. See who has patience. Eric will not rely on this movie to live.
"Mr. Barry Diller, it will definitely be unhappy to talk about it again. I directly said that my conditions are good. I can sell the overseas copyright of "Little Ghosts" to Fox for $25 million, but next year I will make three movies. Including the second part of "The Little Devil", I need Fox to sign a package agreement with me. I want to divide 35% in North America and 10% in overseas."
The reason why overseas copyrights are not re-selected is because Eric suddenly finds that he is in urgent need of a sum of money, and the price of $25 million is definitely cheaper than the share.
Barry Diller patiently listened to Eric’s words and frowned. “Eric, the $25 million price Fox is indeed acceptable, just as you said before, the movies you make are just low-cost movies, in this case, The division you made is too high. Only the big film can get that kind of division. If it is only the second part of "The Little Devil", Fox can also consider the other two..."
Seeing Barry Diller shaking his head, Eric smiled slightly, since the channel: "I believe that my movie is worth the price, or Mr. Diller, how do we sign a gambling agreement?"
"amount……"
Barry Diller was directly stunned, because the turmoil in the gambling agreement, the president of Colombia, Blount Cohen, is now in a state of faltering, and may be rolled out at any time. Barry Diller will not be stupid.
"Maybe, I should disclose the conditions I have opened. I believe that other film companies will be very interested. Michael Eisner has invited me more than once."
Barry Diller smiled: "Eric, you can't lie to me, I know why Michael contacted you."
Eric shook his head. "No, Mr. Diller, I didn't want to lie to you. I mean, after that incident, Mr. Eisner contacted me again."
As a former assistant, Barry Diller knows Michael Eisner, but it is a very conceited person, so Barry Diller is very surprised that Michael Eisneren is going back to the grass, he is not I know that this is because the two met, and Eric’s performance left a deep impression on Michael Eisner.
Barry Diller did not believe that Eric would lie on such a thing that was easily poked, and at the same time added a lot of attention to Eric. He still believed in the vision of his former assistant. Barry Diller is not as indecisive as Blount Cohen. After a moment of indulging, quickly calculated the pros and cons, Barry Diller made the decision directly: "Well, Eric, I promise you."
"So, the cooperation is happy," Eric raised his right hand.
Barry Diller smiled and raised his hand, and Eric slammed his hand. The two men basically reached an agreement, and the next signing would be a matter of course.
......
"Hey, Eric, I miss you." Eric returned to the reception hall, and a pale green figure floated directly into the arms of Eric.
The girl’s voice was excited and attracted the attention of many people in the hall.
Eric quickly stopped Drew's further intimacy, and Shantou is now only 13 years old. He is only intimate in private. If he shows up in front of so many people, it is hard to say what it will become.
Drew also realized that the occasion was wrong and spit out a small tongue. I loosened Eric's waist and quickly changed her position to hold Eric's arm tightly. The small chest of the sac was also carelessly rubbing Eric's arm, making Eric slightly sinful. I feel refreshed.
"Drew, how did you come out, is the treatment over?" Eric walked to the group of Penny Marshall and turned to ask Drew. I don't know if it was a coincidence. When I bowed, I just passed Drew's water-green dress has some loose collars, and the little rabbit with the red fruit inside is not covered with a hood.
Drumin sharply felt Eric's gaze, and satisfactorily showed a slightly awkward smile. He had a very small chest so that Eric could easily appreciate some scenery. He said with a greasy voice: "It was originally discharged tomorrow. I heard that you will attend this reception this evening and ran out in advance."
"Drew, you are out of the addiction, it is best not to drink."
"How is it possible that the waiters here will not give me any drinks, I am only thirteen years old," Drew denied with a strange look.
Eric suddenly remembered that this is indeed the case. Here is the United States. The law stipulates that drinking alcohol can only be used when it is 18 years old. It should be observed at least on the surface, especially the well-known places such as Hilton Hotel. In order to avoid criticism, Pay attention to these details.
In the country where Erik was in the past, even if he was a child of seven or eight years old, adults encouraged him to drink a little wine. If he could drink a few glasses of white, it must be a symbol of good fortune. However, it may be due to living habits. Although there are legal restrictions, in Eric's view, Western alcoholics are far more than the East.
"Hey, Eric, I haven't seen you for a week, what I'm busy with recently, a little bit of your news, are you planning to retire early?" Penny Marshall saw Eric and Drew and greeted him. Road.
Eric took a glass of red wine in the waiter's tray and walked over to Penny Marshall. He smiled and said: "How is it possible? I am only 18 years old, not 80 years old. How can I retire? I am just catching a novel. The manuscript only."
"New novel? I want to see, I want to see!" Penny Marshall has no interface, and Drew is the first to scream at Eric's arm.
Penny Marshall tweeted: "Hey, Drew, lady, Eric is a girl who likes to be quiet."
"It's not," Drew smacked his mouth and retorted: "Aniston is not a lady at all, hey, yes, why didn't the big fat girl come, wow haha, Eric, are you breaking up? ”
Eric knocked on Drew's head: "Well, Drew, Anne happened to have another thing tonight, how can we break up and change the show to you."
"Hey, Eric, you are really hurtful." Drew licked the place where Eric hit, and snorted.
......
“Here,” said Penny Marshall, who led Eric and Drew to a long table and said, “This is the heroine of Ms. Elizabeth Perkins, Flying Over the Future. I definitely know, Mr. Tom Hanks."
"Hello, I am Eric Williams," Eric said with two people: "Mr. Hanks, I like your "Flying Over the Future", the little kid you played in it. It’s so much like, how do you do it?”
Tom Hanks smiled with a modest smile: "Call me like Tom, Eric. As for how to do it, you can ask Penny."
Referring to this question, Penny Marshall is obviously a little smug, explaining: "It is like this. When shooting, I let David Moscow, who played the boy Josh, perform it according to the script, and then let Tom follow the show. David’s gangster has also teased Tom, and if David is a few years old, playing Kevin in The Little Ghost is completely fine. Right, Eric, is there any plan for your lower film? ?"
