Chapter 140： I need a maid

In the bright office, Eric appreciated the beautiful little baby fat face for a while, his eyes gradually lost focus, and he couldn't help but think of the divorce case of the previous life. It should be zero year, even though Eric at that time. Ke doesn't care much about entertainment gossip, but Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are so famous. He is in that circle again, and it is impossible to hear people around talking about these news.

But until the two officially divorced, the specific reasons for divorce were not exposed, and all kinds of speculations were flying all over the sky.

Among the several speculations Eric heard, the most interesting thing was that the two were divorced because of Kubrick’s "Open Eyes," and Kubrick asked Nicole Kidman to play the navy in the movie. The officer's male model, Gary Cuba, played the real army. It seems that he was finally beaten and had an ovarian operation. The relationship between the two men also produced irreconcilable cracks. With Kubrick's personality, Eric felt This kind of thing is very likely, but Kubrick is indeed a jerk, but not a madman. It should not be possible to disclose this to Tom Cruise. The news came out after the divorce.

Two years before the couple divorced, a maid of the Cruise family accidentally revealed a message to the media that the two people were cold when they were at home, and there was no conversation between them. The maid had succumbed to the lawsuit because of this news. After winning the lawsuit, the Cruzes also publicly showed a few loves to maintain their image, but after two years the couple divorced inexplicably.

The media at the time listed a series of speculations about the divorce of the two. The first is Nicole Kidman who brought a green hat to Cruise. The child who was pregnant for three months was not Tomog, and Eric personally I feel that this news is the most reliable, because Nicole Kidman is almost a net out of the house, if it is not because of the very loss, to the character of the Western woman, how can it be unwilling to split half of the property of Atango, not at all I will agree to sign the divorce agreement a few days before the tenth anniversary. George Lucas of that year was separated from the huge amount of property by his wife because of the divorce. So he sold the Pixar studio, and later the media giant Comm’s chairman, Somer Thunder, was also overwhelmed by his wife’s divorce. To know that California's law stipulates that, in the absence of a prenuptial agreement, the husband and wife have more than ten years of marriage, then when the divorce, the two people's property is evenly distributed, and Tom Cruise is blasted with more than $360 million in a year. A huge amount of property, and after Nicole Kidman divorced, it is said to have only taken away a piece of art.

In the office at the moment, Nicole Kidman noticed the expression of Eric's sorrowfulness and finally made a bit of dissatisfaction. Isn't he so unattractive? The man who is three years younger than himself is distracted.

The scene was silent for a few minutes, and Nicole Kidman couldn’t help but take the lead: "Eric?"

"Well, oh, sorry, Nicole, suddenly remembered something." Eric finally came back and smiled apologetically to Nicole Kidman and asked, "Nicole, the file shows you Australia is developing very well. Why did you come to Hollywood suddenly?"

"All actors in the world will yearn for Hollywood to prove themselves, and I am no exception. I hope that I can achieve better development in Hollywood."

"It's not easy. You didn't even shoot a Hollywood movie before, and if you want to prove yourself in Hollywood, you shouldn't be involved in the audition of TV drama characters."

"Just... didn't meet the right role," Nicole Kidman pleaded for a reason: "I think this TV show should be good, so come and try."

Nicole Kidman might not want to play a movie, but she has no luck in her life. She came to Hollywood from the beginning of the year. Like all the smug actors, she came to the movie center around the world with all kinds of unrealistic fantasies. After several months, she tried to participate in the audition, but only in one In the film, I got a small supporting role that didn't even count the vase. In the end, I had to turn my attention to the TV series. From small screen to big screen, it was also the road to the fame of many Hollywood stars.

Eric suddenly thought of one thing and curiously asked: "Nicone, are you coming alone to Hollywood?"

"Yeah," Nicole Kidman felt a bit puzzling.

Eric nodded nodded.

Silence for a few seconds in the office, Nicole Kidman couldn't help but ask one of his most concerned questions: "So, Mr. Director, I... Did I get the role of Phoebe Buffy?"

"Sorry, no, the role has already set other people." Eric shook his head and replied honestly.

Nicole Kidman snorted, this is... what's going on, if the other person says something like 'still thinking' or 'this depends on your performance', Nicole Kidman can still I understand what I should do, but I did not expect that the other party told her directly that this role was given to others.

“Can you tell me why?” Nicole Kidman’s thoughts were a bit messy.

Eric changed a more comfortable posture and explained: "I decided with other producers because you, um, you are too beautiful."

"Ah?" Nicole Kidman was a bit speechless.

"This is the case," Eric sat up straight and explained: "In the setting of the story, Phoebe is a very frustrated girl. She was abandoned by her biological parents since she was a child. Later her stepmother committed suicide, only 14 years old. The girl wandered alone to New York, struggling at the bottom, and eventually became a masseur."

"Does this have anything to do with appearance?"

“There is a big relationship,” Eric continued. “You think that if a very beautiful 14-year-old girl is on the streets of New York, she will grow up to the twenties and live an ordinary life. Life, also handed over a large group of good friends?"

Of course it is impossible, although Nicole Kidman is a good middle-class family, but he has not seen the dark side of society. If Phoebe is very beautiful, he will be lucky and find a good man to marry. Become a housewife, after all, beauty is not a scarce resource anywhere. But if luck is bad, the end will be very miserable.

"Eric, if that's the case, then why are you still waiting for me here?"

"Because... curious, I am very curious about you, so I want to talk to you."

"Just these?" The girl looked at Eric incredibly, and the reason was too far-fetched.

Eric shrugged and stood up and said: "Just these, I just want to talk to you, very late, Nicole, sorry to let you wait so long, I invite you to dinner."

"Well," Nicole Kidman stood up in disappointment, put on high heels, walked out of the office with Eric, and went downstairs in the eyes of the security guard.

When dining in an attached restaurant, the tall girl looks like a heavy-hearted look. It seems that she is struggling with something in her heart. Eric has eaten a lot of relish, and chats with the girl if nothing has happened.

After going out of the restaurant for dinner, Eric got into his car, and Nicole Kidman looked at Eric’s intention to say goodbye to himself, and finally couldn’t help but open Eric’s door and sit in the co-pilot. The girl understands very well that if she misses this opportunity, she is likely to return to Australia only.

In the months of Hollywood, Nicole Kidman has seen a lot of Hollywood's brutal competition, and the person with the highest status she has dealt with is just a film director who has no fame in Hollywood. Her performance has also won several small awards in Australia, but this has nothing to do with Hollywood.

"Nico..." Eric looked curiously at the girl who got into her car, and her own car stopped next to it.

"Well, Mr. Williams, what do I have to do to get the role, please tell me directly?" The girl said this, her breathing became a little short, and a pair of blue eyes stared at Eyre seriously. Gram, with a kind of momentum.

"But the character has really been fixed." Eric replied earnestly.

"Then why do you still have to do these extra things, give hope, and burn out so quickly, don't you think this... Is this too much?"

"Well, I apologize, I really just because... because of curiosity."

"Then it is ridiculous to let a woman wait in the office for a few hours and talk a little bit about the mess. Do you think anyone will believe it?"

"What about that?" Eric is also impatient.

The girl hesitated for a moment, stretched out Eric's arm and pressed it on her lap: "Mr. Williams, I know very well about you. You are the most promising young director in Hollywood. I have heard of it." Leah Roberts, so, give me a chance?"

Eric glanced at the hand pressed by the **** the other's lap, and despite the trousers, Eric felt an inexplicable warmth.

"After the "Dark War", there is indeed a movie that you can try. Like "Feng Yue", it is also a romantic love comedy," Eric finally said.

The girl pressed Eric's hand tightly and her face showed an excited look.

"You know, I have been busy recently. The movie will start at least seven or eight months, maybe even later."

"No problem, I can wait," Nicole Kidman did not hesitate.

Eric shook his head: "Not like this, I mean, I am busy recently, I need a servant at home."

"Ah," Nicole Kidman opened his mouth slightly.

Eric’s mouth evoked a smug smile: “I’m too busy, I need someone to help me prepare for three meals a day, oh, I’m not at home at noon, two meals a day, and I don’t like hours. My family will help you clean up, and I need to help me clean up the room. If you want, you can come and visit the maid from May to September."

"Ah!" Nicole Kidman still had some thoughts on turning and thinking for a moment. The girl asked and asked: "I, Eric, is the heroine?"

Eric showed a decent smile: "Of course, if you do well, like Julia, a movie will rank among the A-level actresses. This is a good opportunity for many Hollywood actresses throughout their careers. It is not always possible to meet."

"I need to think about it." Nicole Kidman looked up.

"Of course, if you think about it, contact me as soon as possible, yes, if you agree, you will stay in my mansion for the next few months."

“Why?” Nicole Kidman was a little scared and had some embarrassing words in her mind.

"I have a formal girlfriend, so I don't want a young and beautiful woman to come in and out of my villa. And, if you don't want to be famous in the future, let others know how you got this role?"

"I understand." Nicole Kidman nodded.

The two talked a few words and separated them. They waited to return home. Eric was also excited about his bad taste. He was sure that Nicole Kidman would not reject the proposal. He even thought that this might The system can be used all the time, so you don't have to ask some strange hourly workers to clean at home, and you don't have to worry about your three meals every day. What's more, what else can you do than let the stars of the past life? It’s more satisfying for the shining star to be his own maid.

At the beginning of the new week, "The Dark War" began the final shooting, and the larger scenes have been completed, and the rest are all fragmented locations. Five days later, on a street in downtown Los Angeles, the "Dark War" crew began the filming of the final scene. Although the crew of the crew had been working for a month and a half, they all had a relaxed expression.

On the bus, Sean squatted under the newspaper, holding a bucket of popcorn, sat down in a seat, and glimpsed the sapphire necklace on the chest behind him. After hesitating, Sean couldn't help but look back again, staring at the sapphire necklace in front of the girl's eyes and staring for a few seconds. When the girl showed a vigilant look, she said: "Sorry, I have mistaken people."

“It’s okay,” Yoyo replied faintly, while inadvertently turning his eyes to the window.

"The necklace is very beautiful, where did I buy it?" Sean couldn't help but ask.

"Friends sent, fake, very cheap." Yoyo heard the other side lifted the necklace, only a little spirited.

Xiaoen smiled and said, "boyfriend?"

Yoyo shook his head: "I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Keep it well," Sean said, turning around and his eyes drifting: "Maybe he suddenly appeared that day, oh, scare you."

Yoyo followed a smile that she looked forward to. Perhaps she felt that this hope was very embarrassing, but she still stubbornly took the bus every day, hoping that Andy could reappear.

The bus stopped gradually, and Eric also shouted the card with satisfaction: "This shot is over, the last shot is left, all the people are ready, Yoyo, oh no, it’s Brooke, then I’m in the audition room. The scene that lets you perform, although there are still several hours, I still hope that you can pass it as soon as possible, and there is a closing banquet in the evening."

"I will try my best, Eric." Brooke Shield replied with a smile.

The last shot started, and one day passed, Yoyo still couldn't meet Andy, and disappointed to get off the bus. Several cameras shot the images of Brooke Shield from the bus and across the street.

Although it was practiced many times in the audition room, Brooke Shields still completed the shot after four or five NGs.

In Eric, he shouted ‘Good! After that, everyone around me applauded.

Eric screamed at the big horn: "I announced that "The Dark War" officially closed the mirror. Immediately clean up the scene, this evening at the Hilton Hotel, everyone must appear, one can not be less!"

"Hey..."

The cheers rang, and many members of the crew couldn't help but take off their hats and throw them into the air.

Eric smiled and explained the matter, but went to an armored **** car next to him.

Four bodyguards with large waists and suits stood alertly next to the armored vehicles. A middle-aged man in his forties was loading the sapphire necklace used by Brooke Shields into the safe.

"Mr. Derek, thank you for your sponsorship." When the other party put the safe with diamonds into the carriage, Eric warmly greeted him and shook hands.

"You're welcome, Eric, this is a win-win thing." The middle-aged man named Derek politely shook with Eric: "So, Eric, I have to leave as soon as possible, the gems are outside." I will feel unreliable after a minute."

"It's okay, understand," Eric replied with a smile. In addition to a series of sponsored brands, "The Dark War" also has a very important prop, the sapphire that the bald monk grabbed.

No one has ever mentioned the use of props to shoot, just look for a piece of blue crystal worth hundreds of dollars. However, after Eric thought, he decided to shoot in kind, but he did not have any contacts in this area. After contacting Colombia, Amy Pascal reported that he soon found a blue worth 10 million US dollars. Color diamond, the gems are said to be a collector from the United Kingdom, the other party intends to auction this diamond through Christie's auction house this fall, just the top of Columbia and the collector have a good personal relationship, after some communication, the other party Reluctantly agreed to pick up the gem.

But this process is not easy. Every time the gem is involved in the shooting, there are four bodyguards with live ammunition eyes staring at the gem. They are all within five meters of the sapphire, and everyone in the crew is working. Because these four people are nervous. Fortunately, there were no problems during the entire shooting process.
