Chapter 40: Heroine in the heart
Eric nodded and turned to Jeff: "Jeff, that's it. I want to have a party at home in the evening, I want to ask a chef... and a waiter to help, so I think of you here."
It is a very profitable business to send chefs and waiters to the party to prepare for the party. When Jeff finished listening, he said with pleasure: "No problem, let Vanessa and Cindy both go."
"The chef has no problem with Vanessa. As for the waiter, let the lady go. Miss Julia, can I?"
Julia Roberts looked at Jeff with hesitation and nodded.
With this in mind, Eric casually chats with Jeff and writes down the menus he needs at night. He works as a waiter in the restaurant, so he doesn't need a person to write down a series of names.
After writing the menu, Jeff took it and looked at it. He got up and stood next to Julia Roberts. "Julia, come over and help me. Eric, wait a moment, it will be good soon. ”
Eric nodded.
When he came to the kitchen, Julia Roberts found that Jeff handed the document to a chef and did not want to help himself. He curiously asked, "Mr. Jeff, what do I need to do?"
Jeff looked up and down Julia Roberts. The girl was more curious, except that her mouth was a little bigger, her figure was better, and there were no other special places.
"Julia, don't you know Mr. Eric?"
Julia is a little confused: "Mr. Jeff, I am sure I have not seen him, I have been in Los Angeles for a few months."
Jeff is too lazy to circle with Julia Roberts: "You should know "The Devil's Home"? He is the young director who filmed "The Little Devil"."
Julia’s eyes widened in an instant, and she remembered that the photo of the director of “Little Ghosts” was recently seen in the newspaper. It’s like the young man: “You mean... that... that.”
During this time, whoever has heard of "Little Ghosts" and the miraculous young director in North America, is not just coming back from Mars or crossing to other planes.
"Yes, it's him. When I just chatted, I swear that you are also an actor. Originally, Eric had only planned to invite a chef, and later added a waiter and appointed you."
Julia Roberts, who hadn’t received any film for nearly a year, heard Jeff’s words, pouted and looked a little excited. She had participated in many auditions in the past year and ended in failure. No one knows more about how important an opportunity is than she is.
"So," Jeff patted the girl's shoulder: "Catch it, girl. It is said that Eric will soon shoot his new film, maybe you can get a role in it."
"Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Jeff."
Jeff smiled and waved his hand, and he actually had a little selfishness. After Eric became famous, he was dug up by the paparazzi because he had worked in his own restaurant. This restaurant has become quite famous in this area, and the business is much better. If you can find another well-known actor, the restaurant business will definitely take it to the next level.
......
"Mr. Eric, can I take your car?"
Eric just took out the key and started the car, thinking that Julia Roberts would sit in the chef's van behind her, and she didn't expect to run to her.
"No problem, Miss Julia, please."
Feel free to glance at the girl in the co-pilot wearing a seat belt. Julia has replaced the costume of the restaurant waiter, and even re-applied the light makeup, wearing a dark red jacket on the upper body and a pair of light-colored jeans on the lower body. The tight cloth perfectly shows the slender legs. At this time, Julia Roberts is only 21 years old. Although her appearance is not good, she is full of youthful and invincible atmosphere.
"Do you know who I am?" Hearing the steering wheel, Eric asked casually.
Julia, who was thinking about how to talk, nodded subconsciously: "Well, Mr. Jeff told me."
"No wonder." Eric chuckled a little.
Julia asked curiously: "Mr. Eric, what awesome?"
"Miss Julia, you paid for $10 an hour, but your attire doesn't seem to be a waiter, but it's like going to a party."
"Ah," Julia looked at her dress. After she heard Jeff's words, she only subconsciously wanted to give the director a good impression before she changed her clothes in a hurry: "I am sorry... Irene Mr. Ke, I... I can go back and change it."
Eric smiled and shook his head: "No, it's good. I heard that you have a movie released in October?"
In a mood, Julia Roberts quickly replied: "Yes, the name is "Modern Cinderella", which tells the story of love between three girls working in the bakery and their boyfriends. Now the box office has exceeded 10 million. The dollar is over."
Julia mentioned the box office of "Modern Cinderella". The tone was just a little smug. In the blink of an eye, I thought of the achievements of the young people's movies. The little face instantly collapsed.
Although for the small-cost movie "Modern Cinderella", the more than 10 million US dollars at the box office has been a small profit, but compared with the current low-cost "Little Ghosts", even There are no qualifications for shoes.
"10 million dollars is already good," Eric has not seen the film, and is not very interested. Just knowing that this movie is also the debut of Matt Damon's film department: "Jeff said that you haven't received a film appointment in a year. After the film is estimated, someone will definitely notice you."
When it comes to this, Julia is a bit resentful. After "Good Cinderella" got a good box office, the agent who was very cold to her saw her potential and got together, screaming to arrange some movies for her. Audition. However, Julia kicked off the broker who had not won a role for herself all the time.
"Mr. Eric, I heard... I heard that you are about to shoot your next movie?"
"There is only one thought now, the actors are not fixed, and the script is not available."
Eric nodded and made a small joke, and he was sighing in his heart. He was just preparing to shoot "Feng Yue Qiao Jia", and the heroine of the previous life appeared in front of him.
Use, or not, this is a problem.
In fact, Eric's most favorite actress is Sophie Marceau, who can perfectly combine the pure and **** temperament with the actress. In addition to Sophie Marceau, Eric can’t think of it for a while. Two.
But now this French rose has not yet produced the European film circle of art supremacy. It is not very famous in North America. Will it accept his invitation, and Eric can only try it before he knows it.
As for now, the reason why I hired Julia as a waiter, Eric is thinking about how to bring Julia Roberts to her own. After all, this past life is the first actress to enter the Hollywood 20 million paid club, a veritable Hollywood sister, the strength is beyond doubt.
Thinking of this, Eric asked: "Julia, do you have a brokerage company now?"
When Julia heard Eric’s question, she was happy and said: “No, I only dismissed my agent not long ago. Now my affairs are decided by myself.”
“This is just fine,” Eric said. “So, how about Julia, joining my brokerage company?”
After learning from Barry Diller that Stewart Longkel signed the CAA, Eric had the idea of starting a brokerage company. He didn’t want to star the movie stars in the future, and everyone else was cheaper. Discuss the conditions yourself.
I thought that Eric would invite her to participate in the audition of the film. If this is the case, Julia will definitely want to agree directly.
But I didn't expect to invite myself to join his brokerage firm, which made Julia a little cautious. She didn't want to be abandoned for a year or more because she joined the wrong brokerage firm.
"Mr. Eric, I don't have this kind of plan for the time being. My former brokerage company didn't bring me work for a whole year. I have to work in the restaurant to maintain my life now."
Eric said: "You can rest assured that Julia, I can guarantee that at least two movies will be arranged for you in the next year, we can write the contract."
Looks like the "Steel Wood Orchid" that gave Julia the Oscar nomination is taken by Colombia next year. Although he and Blount Cohen are very stiff because of the gambling contract, it is no problem to recommend an actress. of. Colombia can't be a piece of iron, it's nothing more than an exchange of interests. There is no shortage of Eric.
Julia Roberts hesitated for a moment: "Can I think about it, Mr. Eric?"
"Of course, no problem." Eric said casually, thinking about it, added: "Actually, the heroine of my lower movie wants to invite French actress Sophie Marceau. If she refuses, you still have Opportunity."
Julia's hand on her knee was gripped, her lips pressed tightly, and her heart was very tangled. Her parents and brother are in the entertainment circle, and Julia who knows this circle knows of course, what is the concept of Eric's next movie heroine. The boy in "The Little Devil's Home" is now infinitely beautiful.
However, it is precisely because her parents are all insiders, let her know that this business is full of all kinds of deception, Eric just said, completely inconsistent with the promise, at most a bait.
If she had a feverish agreement to join Eric's brokerage firm, Eric turned her eyes behind and she could only cry without tears.
