Chapter 456: so disappointed
The two women passed through the villa hall and quickly found Erik's figure. The last touch of the setting sun slanted through the glass curtain wall and hit him. The light and shadow of the light and darkness surrounded him, and he looked down and carefully read the whole Eric. A quiet and calm temperament. Elizabeth and Julia slowed down in unison and didn't want to break the picture, but the quiet hall magnified the knocking sounds of the two women's high heels.
Eric heard the sound of high-heeled shoes hitting the floor, looked up, saw the figures of the two women, and smiled: "I just wanted to wait for the dinner, you will come over."
"Oh, what do you think of us, your dinner?" Elizabeth took Julia up and retracted into the space chair opposite Eric. Both women are very slim and they don't look crowded in some of the large egg-shaped space chairs.
Eric looked at the two women who were gently shaking in the opposite space chair. The mouth was still laughing and said: "I mean someone came to cook for me, but you have to personally do my dinner, I don't mind, It’s a good meal.”
This sentence sounded almost there, and Julia’s face was slightly reddened, but Elizabeth snorted and said, “Do you know that you just sat alone in the corner, much like in the movie? Hiding in the dark, "The behind-the-scenes villain of the protagonist."
"Yeah, this kind of big villain is usually surrounded by a few enchanting beauty. When you two come over, the picture is complete."
Julia couldn't help but laugh out loud. Elizabeth was always like a cat in a frizzy state when she was with Eric. It seemed to be instinctively to fight with Eric. But always can't find any cheap.
"Hey. Where are you?" Elizabeth heard Julia's laughter and couldn't help but reach out and squeeze her waist.
Julia smiled and shouted Elizabeth's little hand: "That's what I am, I can't laugh yet."
Eric looked at the look of the two women who were quickly scratching together, and looked down at the mouth with a smile. They took a few pictures from the thick information in front of them and handed them over: "Hey, give it to you."
In fact, Elizabeth just noticed what Eric was reading. Although she only looked at it inadvertently, it was definitely a copy of the contract between Firefly and Colombia. Seeing that Eric took the initiative, he quickly stopped playing with Julia, and smiled and picked it up, but his eyes were unsatisfied and aimed at the folder on Eric's knee, there are still dozens of pages.
Eric reached out and pressed on the rest of the data and shook his head: "You can't watch these."
"It's stingy," Elizabeth groaned and complained, but slammed back.
When Elizabeth sat down beside him, Julia curiously took a look at a few lines, but soon lost interest in the dense letters. Look up and notice that Eric is just looking at himself. Julia sneaked a few gaze in a panic, and finally greeted her, and unconsciously took some unexpected expectations.
"You have been so lazy for a year, Kapoor must be mad?" Eric asked softly as he turned the pencil in his hand.
"I have been willful, I have been taking care of Emma. And Kapoor has so many big hands in his hands, and I don't care about me," Julia said, but there was no point in her tone. From the founding to the present, tg Although there are not many films produced, they are extremely successful. Julia has also received a dividend that is several times higher than her pay for 30% of the tg shares. In contrast, the enthusiasm of Julia's acting is also weak.
Eric didn't seem to hear Julia's resolution. The pencil in the hand was a blue plastic crust that tapped the folder. He said: "The "Wind Beauty" has been around for so long, you can pick up the romantic comedy again. This subject, I took the time to let you pick the script."
Julia obeyed, and Elizabeth, who had finished reading a few sheets of paper in front of her, quickly heard Eric’s words and couldn’t help but say, “How can you be so overbearing, and don’t ask Julia whether or not willing."
Eric glanced at her with a flickering look. The expression is obviously to say that you know me on the first day?
Elizabeth turned to look at Julia, hoping she could fight against Eric's 'atrocities' with herself, but she saw Julia's low-browed little wife look like a sigh of relief. I don’t have any opinions on the competition. I still have a heart.
"Hey, this, what the **** is going on?" Elizabeth raised the pages of the contract in her hand and turned the topic to the purpose of her trip.
Eric said: "It is what you see, co-developing movies, everyone wins, and everyone is happy."
"I don't believe your ghost words," Elizabeth said. "Although this contract is a bit harsh for Colombia, if it is released, with the reputation accumulated by fireflies, even if it is a more stringent condition, some people will come together. Hey, there must be an insider inside."
Elizabeth said, the little eyes turned to the documents that Eric pressed on his knees, and there must be the answer he wanted. Although he was asked by his father to listen to the situation, at this time, Elizabeth also had a strong curiosity in her heart. Although some of the terms she saw were very unfavorable for Colombia, if the films produced by the two parties could maintain the usual box office of the fireflies, Colombia would never suffer, and Colombia’s parent company, Sony Pictures, could Open the situation in Hollywood.
From this point of view, the fireflies are simply giving people a sleepy pillow.
"You said that it is insider, of course you can't talk around."
I heard Eric personally admit that there was an insider, and Elizabeth curiosity went up again, staring at the remaining documents in Eric's hands, thinking that if she suddenly went to snatch, Eric would fry her into maturity. ......
Eric looked at Elizabeth's eagerness to look at it with enthusiasm, and deliberately pushed the document in her direction, voluntarily giving Elizabeth the 'creation' condition, like a piebald snake from the Garden of Eden.
Elizabeth's gaze flashed quickly, and I saw Eric's gaze inadvertently. Suddenly vented.
Eric Haha laughed and got up. Take the part of the contract in Elizabeth's hand and put it in the folder. I patted the girl's face as if I was pacifying a kitten that was not full: "Well, there are ingredients in the kitchen, go to dinner. If you don't want to do it, you can take a takeaway. I go to the study and make a few calls."
Elizabeth slammed her head a few times and wanted to open Eric’s odious palm, and Eric’s eyes flashed. But along the girl's face all the way down, Elizabeth quickly pressed her chest and exclaimed: "Ah, the satyr, what do you do? Julia... Julia is here."
Julia stared at Eric's hand and reached into Elizabeth's collar. It seemed to be still moving.
But very quickly, the big hand was pulled out, holding a soft cushion in his hand, and Elizabeth's face suddenly became red and bloody, and Julia snorted. He screamed and laughed.
"I said something bigger, it was disappointing." Eric sighed and the old **** was saying.
"You bastard," Elizabeth grabbed the things wildly and screamed in hate, but saw Eric walking towards the study.
Watching Eric's figure disappear, Julia turned to look at Elizabeth, and her mouth still smiled: "Hey, we... are we going to have dinner?"
"Don't do it," Elizabeth said with a hateful voice, but quickly said: "Call a takeaway."
"Hey..."
"No smile," Elizabeth looked mad.
Julia’s laughter was even bigger, and she said with a small stomach: “Yes... Haha... Sorry, I can’t help it.”
"What is pleasing, you are not playing much more than me."
Julia did not change her smile, and proudly asked her full chest: "It is bigger than you anyway."
"You are a dead Nizi," Elizabeth rushed over. "I will pinch the dots for you."
"Ah... let go, it hurts, you really come, I don't laugh, don't laugh, ah, help."
......
The sudden cooperation between Firefly and Columbia caused a wave of turmoil in Hollywood. In the next week, the North American media focused on this matter, and the cooperation between the two sides was even more than the end of March. The 64th Oscar was held.
The nomination list of the 64th Oscar was announced on February 19th. It was no accident that Eric’s "Walking with the Wolf" became a big winner and won the best film and best director. Wait for 12 nominations. Not only that, since December last year, "Dance with the Wolf" has been released for more than 10 weeks, but the weekly box office number has remained at around 7 million, and the total box office has also exceeded 100 million US dollars. The word of the dance, before and after the Oscar, will certainly usher in a box office rebound, then, the film's total box office breakthrough of 1.5 billion is almost no suspense, even reaching 200 million US dollars is not impossible.
The amazing performance of "Dancing with the Wolf" was not even expected by Eric himself. He only remembered that this movie would become the big winner of the Oscar, but compared to the horrible four-hour studio, Eric did not think at first. What the film will do at the box office, but in accordance with normal management, it is expected that the film will win in the videotape market after winning the Oscar award. Therefore, Eric did not care about the film last year. The distribution rights were handed over to Fox, who only retained the rights to the film and the surrounding distribution rights.
The current situation seems that Fox is definitely making crazy, Eric is a little depressed, and more depressed, it must be the producer and Orion film that took the film for 30 million US dollars last year.
Orion has experienced bankruptcy and restructuring, and has started production again. While noting the amazing results of "Dance with the Wolf", a responsible person of Orion has not hated to publicly denounce the fireflies in a magazine. Means took the copyright of the film, and also invested in the "Dance with the Wolf" director and actor Kevin Costner, although he did not show much slack in participating in the film public relations, but he also knows that he gave up A large profit, according to the profit of "Dance with the Wolf", Kevin Costner, which accounts for 15% of the total investment, only got $4.5 million from last year's selling price. Although he earned 1.5 million, if he participated If it is divided, he will receive more than $10 million in benefits. This loss of profits is enough for him to regret the wall.
However, Hollywood is like this, realistic and cruel, but full of opportunities, no one knows what will happen next. Like Warner's first "Batman", because there was not much expectation for this movie beforehand, in order to save money, Warner wisely signed a share agreement with Jack Nicholson, who played the supporting role clown. As a result, "Batman" box office exploded, and because of the sharing agreement, Warner has successively paid Jack Nicholson a share of up to 50 million US dollars, which is much more than the male and female protagonists of the film and the director's return.
The cooperation agreement between Firefly and Columbia is not particularly confidential. In less than a week, the top executives of other Hollywood film companies knew the outline of the agreement. This cooperation agreement basically placed Colombia in the position of an external investor. Even so, it is enough to make other film companies look hot. After all, ordinary outside investors invest in movies, it must be compensated, and often it is more time to lose money, and the number of times of making money is very small, and fireflies are few The movies produced in the past year have hardly failed. Hollywood does not believe that fireflies will deliberately make bad films in order to pit Colombia, then Colombia's profit will certainly be guaranteed.
Although it can be guessed that there must be other ulterior motives behind the agreement, several other film companies have tried to get in touch with fireflies, even if they are similar to the cooperation agreement.
As for Sony, after the initial negotiation of the two sides, the Sony headquarters also expressed great concern for the cooperation, and even confessed to announce the news in the local media in Japan.
"Hello, Mr. Dahe," Eric shook hands with the Asian man in his early 60s, and looked at the other side without any trace. He did not expect that Sony’s cooperation with the two sides should be more important than he imagined. Most of the current president of Sony, Dahe Dianxiong, personally rushed to New York to participate in the signing ceremony.
Dahe Dianxiong is also looking at the opposite Eric. Although I have already seen Eric's information, I have been amazed at the youngness of the firefly owner. (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
