Chapter 1138: Liquidation

Chapter 1138: Liquidation

Upon hearing the name of Paramount Pictures, Eric found that he did not feel any surprise.

From the first confrontation between the two sides in the process of bidding for the Disney Group, the relationship between the Firefly System and Viacom has not been good.

In fact, with the continued expansion of the firefly system, the traditional situation of Hollywood's major film companies to balance each other and peace has long been broken, and the firefly system is increasingly showing an oligarchy that dominates Hollywood. The other three major media groups in Hollywood, who are increasingly feeling the threat of survival, are naturally more vigilant about the attitude of the firefly system, and will have a chance to fight back.

Moreover, this incident has a very direct incentive.

"Iron Man" was released on May 7, and the following week, on May 14, Paramount Pictures' "West Point Secret" was released.

"West Point Secret" is a criminal drama film directed by Simon West and starring John Travolta.

After Simon West and Brooke Hemer's "Air Prison" achieved a fairly good global box office, it was quickly recruited by Paramount to collect the past. "West Point Secret" is his second film work. It is also a big production, costing $95 million, and the budget is almost the same as Iron Man.

However, compared with the good reputation of "Iron Man", after several low-definition "West Point Secrets", it was a bad review by the film critics.

It can be imagined that under normal circumstances, in the face of the strong crush of "Iron Man", the end of "West Point Secret" can only be reduced to cannon fodder. In order to gain more survival opportunities for "West Point Secret", Paramount has inevitably mobilized its mind.

Open the folder that Meyer handed over, with a letter of apology from Ronald Hill, and Eric just swept his eyes and threw it on the table next to him. The fingertips rubbed on the matte cover of the folder for a moment, and Eric asked Mayer: "What is the person in charge of the site?"

"Adam Wembley," Meyer said: "He is a high school classmate of Ronald Hill."

"Let the detective company go to check this person, I want to know everything about him," Eric told him, not saying too fine. He knew that Meyer could understand what he meant and said, "Well, Put all the staff information on that website into a single piece, and then release the news, whether it is Silicon Valley or Hollywood, or any other company, whoever hires these people, I will find them trouble, let Kelly specially arrange two people to stare It’s not too long to stare at it. It’s ok for three years.”

Mayer was able to understand Eric's order to investigate Adam Wembley, but heard that he wanted to blacklist all employees on the 'Hollywood Gossip' website and couldn't help but say: "Eric, is this necessary? ”

Eric turned his head and looked at Meyer's exquisite face. He said, "Mary, the things of the past few days are fortunately depressed. If you can't press it, do you know what will happen?"

Meyer squatted and shook his head slightly.

Eric is still staring at the girl's face, saying: "Look at Jackson, many people know that he is being shackled, but the result? In the investigation of the case in 1993, Jackson was bombarded by countless media. In a few months, I was almost mentally broken. In the past six years, he still suffered from very serious mental problems. Perhaps he could not get rid of the shadow of the year when he died. Emma, ​​Kevin and Xia Xia are still only Children, their lives have just begun. If this incident is not fortunately suppressed by me, this kind of thing is also likely to have a very serious impact on their next life. Therefore, I will definitely not allow for Kai Their thing happened again for the second time."

Meyer whispered: "I think they must not dare."

Eric shook his head and said indifferently: "I never have such expectations for the people. So, from the very beginning, I said that those who stood in front of the stage, hiding behind the scenes, thought that they were not The big guys who are implicated, I think that I don’t miss the little ones that are not important to me. I want to put an instinct mark on them that I can’t think of.”

Meyer slightly lowered her eyes and nodded: "Eric, I understand."

"So, for the time being, only help me with a copy of Viacom's last quarter earnings report."

Meyer sounded like a mosquito, but he still stood in the same place, his eyes lowered.

Eric noticed the appearance of the female assistant, slowed down the tone and said: "Come here."

Meyer stepped a few times toward Eric, but he stood still in front of him.

Eric reached out and grabbed Meyer's soft waist and used a little effort. The female assistant reluctantly sat down on Eric's knee, but her eyes were still unwilling to touch Eric. The appearance of a small emotion.

"Well, Mary, I apologize. I may have a slight tone, but it is definitely not for you."

Meyer earned his hands on his waist, with a little grievance in his tone: "You are a tyrant."

"Well, my fault, I will pay attention later."

Meyer continues to blame: "You are still eccentric, sending Kali back to Los Angeles, but let me deal with these anecdotes."

Eric kissed the female assistant's white neck and said: "Suddenly I found that some of them can't be separated from you. Would you like to stay with me for a few more years?"

Meyer felt a current flowing from the neck, softly flashing a little, and said: "No, I don't want to be a kitten around you."

"I never thought about it like this."

"You have, you just like to use a woman as a cat."

"I don't have it," Eric firmly refused to admit. He also countered: "There are some people, moody, hot and cold, no matter how good you are, she always wants to escape from you, which is obviously impossible. The domesticated cat is exactly the same."

When Meyer heard these words, he found that he could not refute, his face flashed red with a scorpion, and suddenly he lowered his head and opened a small white tooth and bit it on Eric's shoulder.

Feeling that the female assistant couldn’t stand the thought of biting hard, Eric swayed on her waist and continued to swear by fear: “Look, it’s more like, and it’s so anxious that even the owner bites.”

The small mouth on the shoulder aggravated some strength, but it quickly loosened.

Let the female assistant put her head on her shoulder and wait for a while, Eric took a picture on her and said, "Okay, hey, it's time to go to work."

"I don't want to work today."

Eric did not have the potential of a sweatshop owner, and he nodded his head: "Okay, take a day off."

Meyer's slender body moved in Eric's arms and changed into a more comfortable position. It seems that she really intends to rely on the day.

However, things are always difficult to do.

Just a moment later, Eric’s cell phone on the desktop rang.

Feel the man picking up the phone and glanced at it, but did not answer. Although very reluctant, Meyer still took the initiative to get up and said: "Then I will go busy first."

Eric and other female assistants disappeared into the villa and only connected the phone. "Oh, Cindy... It’s no big deal, it’s already handled, you, how are you doing... very important thing... Ok, let me wait and go."

Hanging up the phone, Eric dialed the phone in the front yard bodyguard, let them prepare the car, then got up and walked to the villa.

Meyer holds a laptop and is sitting on the couch sending an e-mail, seeing him coming in, his expression revealing the expression of the inquiry.

"I have to go back to Manhattan," Eric volunteered. "You can live here tonight."

Meyer shook his head and said, "I don't want to live alone in this deserted place."

In fact, the maids in the manor have always been responsible for taking care of them. However, the class concept of the female assistants who are from wealthy middle-class families is obviously stronger than Eric. For her, perhaps only Eric in the manor. And her two.

"Let's go back together," Eric didn't care about the details. "Come on, I let the bodyguard prepare for the car."

Today is May 3.

May 5th is the Los Angeles premiere of "Iron Man", and will definitely go back tomorrow, Eric will not intend to come over here again.

Simply packing up the luggage, Eric gave a few words to the maid who was in charge of the foreman in the manor before leaving Mayer with East Mayton.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon to get to Manhattan.

Since Caroline and Mayer are no longer willing to live in Eric's top-floor mansion at the entrance to Sixth Avenue, Eric needs to come to New York often. It is impossible to always let two women live in the hotel, so they give They arranged an apartment, which is considered employee benefits.

After arriving in Manhattan, Eric first asked the driver to send Meyer to her home near the Rockefeller Center in Midtown before rushing to 75th Street.

Take a private elevator to the door of Cindy's apartment, and Cindy just opened the door and went to the hallway.

The woman obviously has no make-up today, wearing a loose pale pink sling top, a pair of white casual trousers, and a pair of slippers on her feet. It is very home-like, so that Eric, who habitually sees Cindy’s meticulously dressed, is somewhat accident.

Just hugged with Cindy, and once again, a beautifully dressed girl came out inside the door. This time it was a bit normal, but I still made Eric somewhat surprised.

"Hey, Fanny, how are you here?"

Eric released Cindy and intended to reach out to Stephanie Seymour. The girl took the initiative to come over and hugged her arms and Eric. The tone was filled with some faint resentment: "Eric, Why can't I be here, I am a good friend with Cindy."

Eric just smiled and walked into the apartment with two women and sat down on the stool at the entrance.

Stephanie Seymour stood next to him and looked at the little daughter-in-law of Cindy. He took the initiative and helped Eric to take the slippers. He also took the men’s shoes and carefully collected them. It felt a little weird and some Uncomfortable, don't know if you should kneel down and do something.

In fact, she came to visit here on a temporary basis. Naturally, she wanted to contact Cindy for the position of the host of the "American Supermodel Contest". Sometimes the emotional card is still very useful.

Everyone lives in the Upper East Side and it is very convenient to walk around. I didn't expect to encounter Eric so well. No wonder Cindy has always had the intention to send her away. If Eric is coming late, she will take the initiative to leave.

In order to change the shoes, Eric casually came to the living room sofa to sit down.

Cindy watched Stefani Seymour not only did not take the initiative to leave, but also took the initiative to sit next to Eric, and frowned slightly, some regrets just did not directly rush to catch people, only a little depressed to go Eric tea is served next to the small bar in the living room.

On the sofa side, Stephanie Seymour leaned against the style, and the woman from the model obviously knew how to put on a more attractive posture. Eric couldn’t help but look at it more, and she still felt a little emotion. Are women not all careful? This seems to be an exception.

It seems that the slap in the first place was not enough.

Thinking about it, my eyes couldn’t help but glance at the abundance curve under the waist of Stephanie Seymour.

Feeling Eric's eyes, Stephanie Seymour moved slightly and took the initiative to say: "Eric, I happened to watch the "Oprah Show" with Cindy a few days ago."

Eric nodded slightly: "And then?"

Stephanie Seymour's fingers smacked on the back of the sofa, but his eyes looked at Eric, who was not looking at him: "Suddenly you found out that you were a good man."

Eric couldn’t help but smile: "Is this a compliment?"

"of course."

"Oh, thank you."

“Just this reaction?” Stephanie Seymour seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied and said, “You are really boring.”

Eric swept his eyes at the small bar, making a small gesture: "No way, Cindy is here."

"Eric, I can hear it."

Eric smiled and looked at the past: "What did I say?"

Cindy rolled her eyes, cut a small packet of green tea with scissors, and looked down on Eric.

Stephanie Seymour apparently envied this little interaction between Eric and Cindy, but the abominable man in front of her apparently did not have the idea of ​​'interacting' with her, which made her feel frustrated again.

Cindy quickly came over with a pot of light green tea, and poured it on the three people. He blinked at the position occupied by Stephanie Seymour, and he had to hold a cup and sit next to the single sofa. on.

Eric looked at the cup of green tea in his hand and felt a little weird again. When did Cindy like to drink tea?

The three of them chatted a few words. After a while, Stefani Seymour apparently did not leave, Cindy had to talk about 'business', said: "Eric, I intend to resign as the host of the "American Supermodel Contest" The location, I want to discuss with you."

Eric squatted, suddenly understood something, swept his eyes on Cindy's lower abdomen, and asked subconsciously: "What about Linda?"

Cindy couldn't help but rolled her eyes, and I knew that Eric knew it. He had some grievances in his tone and said, "What does Linda have to do with this?"

It seems that this time there is no double-edged sculpture, Eric has put aside his heart. After all, it is not a good thing to always let two women get pregnant together.

"Well," nodded casually, and Eric looked at Stefanie Seymour, who was obviously unclear, and said directly: "Fanny, can I talk to Cindy alone?"
