Chapter 758: 20000000
Eric is not surprised to hear that Stephanie Seymour wants to get the role of "Want City", with the dazzling achievements of "American Supermodel Contest" and "Tianqiao Pride", Lifetime TV is about to launch The TV series, also made by Eric himself, caused a lot of attention from TV and movie actresses after the news came out.
"Wuwang City" adopts the four-lead mode, and the age selection criteria of the four heroines are all around 30 years old. The actress of this age group has already made a name for herself, and can continue to continue her acting career. In addition, a larger number of actresses will gradually disappear into the screen after the age of 30 as the opportunity decreases. Although "Wuwang City" is only a TV series, it is very attractive to actresses around 30 years old because of the strong support of Lifetime TV and Eric.
Seeing the expression of Stefani Seymour's look, Eric asked: "Stephanie, ask a more abrupt question, how old are you this year?"
Stephanie Seymour did not ask most of the Western women of the age to pretend that, "Eighty-eight-year-old, Eric, I know that the age requirements of the four heroines of "Wuwang City" are Around 30, but I don't think this requirement is so demanding, isn't it?"
Stephanie Seymour said, squeezing toward Eric without a trace, once again, if nothing happened, picked up a chocolate bean in his mouth and looked at it with a wink.
Eric feels the unique and rich charm of Chanel No. 5 on the woman. She gently shakes her head and says: "Stephanie, I am afraid this is not possible. Moreover, age is not your most important issue. The key is you. It’s so beautiful. You probably should know that I originally recommended another British actor to be the female No.1, but she was too ridiculous because she was too beautiful. The writer wants the character to be relatively ordinary.”
"Oh, Eric, you must be perfunctory, right?" Stephanie Seymour expressed a bit of resentment. "I was the first to hear that the writer has the power to veto the boss's decision?"
Eric's spreader: "But that's the truth. In general, I am still a more open-minded boss. As long as my subordinates can prove the correctness of their views, I will not go it alone."
Stefani Seymour was obviously not reconciled, and she wanted to say something. There was a burst of footsteps around her. It turned out that the first theme was over.
The two heard the voice subconsciously turning around, and Cindy Crawford had already come to Eric, wearing a seductive black Nei, with a fiery red wing behind her. Cindy stretched her arm and let the staff take off the big red wings on her body and greeted Eric: "Hey, Eric, what are you talking about?"
"Nothing, Cindy, you are so beautiful tonight."
"Thank you, Eric, but, how many times have you said this tonight?"
"It is the first time for you."
"Oh," Cindy smiled. She took off her wings and took a pink robe from the assistant. She said to Stephanie Seymour: "Sorry, Stephanie, this is my position. Can you let me?" ?"
"Oh, of course," Stephanie Seymour nodded, but did not immediately get up, but did not know where to find a business card, stuffed Eric, said: "Eric, maybe we can Take time to talk, just call me whenever you want."
After saying this, not waiting for Eric to answer, Stephanie Seymour got up and walked towards the dressing room.
Cindy looked at everything and sat down in the position of Stephanie Seymour, laughing: "There are so many goblins, aren't they?"
Eric played with the business card that Stephanie Seymour had just given him. He said: "According to the rules in your circle, shouldn't she be considered to be a good man, and concentrate on being too rich?"
"Oh, she, don't count it," Cindy seems to have some gloating, saying: "Looking for an old man who is twenty years older than himself, what merit is perfect, and, guess, Peter Brant has how many kids?"
Eric shrugged: "Does this matter?"
"Of course," Cindy whispered, and said: "Peter Brant and his ex-wife have a total of five children. Before Stephanie, the two had been married for almost twenty years. According to federal law, Peter Brant wants to divorce his ex-wife, but he has to be split half of his property, but his ex-wife did not."
Eric is also a bit curious: "Why?"
Cindy said: "This is also a smart woman. She knows very well that Peter Brant can't afford to be hit by half of the property, which will almost make him lose control of his own industry. So, when divorced Peter Brant’s ex-wife did not ask for the division of property, but rather let Peter Brant determine the inheritance in advance. In the future, her five children will receive most of Peter Brant’s property, although the details have not been announced, but You can imagine that the half of the former wife of Peter Brant will definitely be five children in the future. In order to satisfy his ex-wife, Peter Brant’s own part must have been attributed to the five children. Stephanie and his wife, even if the marriage has been maintained, she and her children will not be able to get too much property in the future, if the divorce, she will not get any compensation."
After listening to Eric, he couldn’t help but smile: “How do I feel that Stephanie was miserable by you?”
"I won't do this anyway, it's not worth it," Cindy said, looking at Eric, who seemed to want to ask, but did not say anything, just asking casually: "Right, What are you talking about?"
"Oh, she asked me if the "American Supermodel Contest" is going to change the host. She said that she really wants this opportunity."
Cindy widened his eyes and immediately realized that he was joking from the smile of Eric's mouth. He reached out and hit him on the man's arm. "You bad guy knows to tease me, but, Xin." Di looked at the business card in Eric’s hand and said, “Well, you have to be careful. After all, people are married, and they are found to be lively by the media.”
Eric ripped the business card in his hand and threw it into the trash can next to him. He smiled and said: "I am a serious person and will not do such a special thing."
"Hey, I believe you are strange. At the beginning of the year at the Sharp Corner Manor, do you think that Linda is married, isn't it still messing up?" Thinking of the chaotic scene at the time, even if it had been half a year, Cindy's face was still rosy. .
"I am involuntarily."
"Pooh."
Eric Haha smiled and looked at the crowds still busy, saying: "Are you busy, why not change clothes, and Christie should go with you for the first time, she is? ?"
Cindy explained: "My next game is in the fourth and sixth themes, and I can take a break. Christie has wings in the third game and needs to be prepared in advance."
"Oh, let's eat something," Eric took the few boxes in front of him.
“It’s really a bit hungry,” Cindy said, holding a bamboo stick and eating a fruit salad. He suddenly remembered something and said, “Yes, Eric, will you go to me tonight?”
Eric smiled and shook his head: "You are really direct, but, sorry, I have already been booked."
"Ah, who is it, Stephanie? It's impossible."
"Of course not, you just didn't say it, there are too many goblins."
Cindy's eyes turned and said: "That must be Linda. Did she say that she bought an apartment in Greenwich Village and let you go and see?"
Eric was surprised: "Have she already said this to others?"
Cindy pointed to herself and dismissed her mouth and said: "The old house a hundred years ago, and only she will be so stupid to buy $2.8 million, saying that it is the former residence of pop art masters. It seems to be called, um, I can't even remember the name, it's very cold, anyway, I always feel that she was fooled by the real estate agent."
Eric doesn't care, he laughs: "Take it, as long as you live in Shutan."
"Oh, only you can write the house to say such an understatement, 2.8 million, if you can keep your value, if you are in your hands, she can only raise it herself, although she has already paid the full amount, but It’s not cheap to raise a house in Manhattan."
"No, at least for the next two decades, Manhattan's housing prices will only rise and not fall. If you have spare cash, you can invest in several houses."
"Well, then I will consider it," Cindy nodded. He heard the staff behind him start to call her and quickly got up and said, "I am busy, Eric, wait for the party."
"see you then."
Eric puts her hand at her. After Cindy leaves, Eric also gets up and finds a less conspicuous position at the front desk during the performance interval. After watching the whole game.
The next day, along with the media’s overwhelming coverage of the second Vimy show, Eric left early in Linda’s apartment in Greenwich Village and flew back to Los Angeles.
On November 10th, Eric flew back to Los Angeles on the same day, and the end of 1995 began.
Compared to the hot summer file that the big production film is getting together, the end of the year seems to be a bit deserted.
Take Fireflies, the company only plans to release two films, "Jesus" and "101 Dalmatians" on Thanksgiving and Christmas. The cost of the two films is about 20 million. If it was a few years ago, The $20 million production cost can be considered medium production, but in recent years, with the explosion of the movie market, movies with a production cost of less than $2,000 can only be considered low-cost movies.
In addition to fireflies, most of the films released by several film companies are similar to low-cost movies. For example, MGM's "Screaming" and "Girls" are cheaper than the two movies of Firefly.
Originally, Sony had the strength to release at least one blockbuster, "Black Man 2" or "Brave Player 2". According to the progress of the production, a little hurry, at least one of the two films can catch up with the Christmas schedule, but perhaps the first part of "The Game of the Brave" last year at the end of the year, the box office performance is not good, Sony is worried that it will repeat the same mistake, so Put all the two films in the summer program next year.
From 1988 to the present, after seven years, with the growing influence of Eric in Hollywood, influenced by his personal butterfly effect, the entire Hollywood film production and distribution rules have become more than the original time and space. Unrecognizable. In the past few years, some of the films that should have appeared have not appeared. Some heavyweights have changed their protagonists. Similarly, there are many movies that did not exist in the original time and space.
Although he still maintains strong influence and control over several film companies within his sphere of influence, Eric finds it impossible to accurately predict the development of several other Hollywood studios.
For example, this year, the comedy film starring Fox Carrie at the end of the year and the movie film of Tom Cruise issued by Paramount, the names and contents of the two films have not been heard.
The box office appeals of Kim Kerry and Tom Cruise are still strong. The two films should also be regarded as the most heavyweight film at the end of the year, but because it is not a big film, although Kim Kerry and Tom Cruise’s pay is close to $20 million, but the overall production cost is no more than 50 million.
Perhaps in order to avoid the Thanksgiving schedule, Fox pushed Kim Kerry's new film ahead of the week before Thanksgiving, and premiered more than 2,600 theaters. He got a $33.2 million box office in the first three days of the week. It is expected that the first week will be at the box office. Easily break through 45 million, close to the cost of production, according to this trend, the total box office can reach at least 120 million US dollars.
So far, Kim Kerry has maintained a total box office of more than $100 million from the debut of the film to the present, which has to be said to be a miracle.
However, according to the original contract, this is the last film that Kim Kerry and Fox cooperated with.
Before the film was released, it was said that Sony had already reached an intention with Kim Kerry in private and would sign a contract with him for a remuneration of 20 million U.S. dollars. After the final step of the film with Fox, the first weekend of the box office, Kim Kerry The side did not hesitate to announce the news, this is Hollywood's first non-divided form of 2000 US dollars, which suddenly caused a heated discussion in the entire entertainment circle.
With the global outbreak of the movie market and the economic recovery in North America and Europe, more and more hot money has begun to flow into the film industry, and the rise of Hollywood stars to the sky is already unstoppable.
Eric remembers that even in the past, even after the economic crisis of 2008, the world movie market entered a cold winter, the Hollywood superstar's pay is still not declining, but the days of second- and third-line movie stars are getting worse.
