Chapter 305： No expectations

When I heard this question, Drew smiled and played haha: "Curious, yes, I brought you a gift back, in my suitcase, I will give it to you at night."

"There must be something to glare at me," Eric said, knocking on the door of his mind and saying, "If it's a disaster, it's best not to let me know the last one, otherwise I won't care."

"Hey, no matter who you care," Eric sat down in the office chair, and the girl just let go of his arm and said.

Eric smiled and picked up the folder on the table and opened it. He said, "Oh, you still depend on me."

"This is a clear thing," Xiao Nizi said, looking at the documents in Eric's hands and asking casually: "What are these?"

"A list of actor's actor's actor," Eric replied, and Xiao Nizi took out a few pieces of information and pulled a chair to look over, not to issue 'wow'. So handsome, like the sound.

Eric shook his head helplessly and didn't talk. He continued to look at it. The selection of "The Ghosts" is very different from the selection of Eric's previous films. Previously, the audition messages were released, and then the actors were accepted. We actively submit the files for sea elections.

However, in the current position of Eric, in the method of casting the fish in the sea, the file received is estimated to explode the firefly's mail room, and the selection is also very problematic. Therefore, this time The selection of the ghost is not the case. This is to prescribe a series of preconditions for the three major brokerage companies, so that the other party recommends qualified actors to come over. Although the actors of many small brokerage companies may lose opportunities, but this is no way, Hollywood has always been so unfair. No one can change.

Even so. There are hundreds of actor profiles in Eric’s current hands.

As for the original male and female protagonists of "The Ghosts Are Not Evil". Eric didn't think about it at first. Because of some information in memory, Eric didn't like Demi Moore. This reason is enough. With his current status, there is no need to explain why.

As for Patrick Swayze, Eric still feels that the other party is more suitable for acting. The male actor Sam in the movie is a department manager of the Wall Street Investment Bank. However, Eric thinks that Patrick Swayze is more suitable for the security of the investment bank.

In the memory of "The Ghosts Are Not Evil", Demi Moore's performance is still barely praiseable, but Patrick Swayze is a male vase, or a very unmale male vase.

Eric feels that the hero of this film should first have a successful temperament of a bank manager, and secondly it is best to bring a little literary atmosphere.

In fact, when he first considered the actor, he almost immediately thought of a person.

That's right. Tom Cruise.

Whether it is acting or image, Cruise or the box office appeal. All fully comply with Eric's requirements. Although there was some gap between the two people because of the cooperation of the last "Dark War", Eric gave people an invitation to Cruise, and the other party gave a response. There is no specific content, just about to talk to tomorrow. .

Cruise has not produced any movies since he left caa and became his own production company. However, Eric also found out that Cruise's production company is now preparing for a movie. Or the investment from Paramount, Cruise and his partner Paula Wagner also served as producers.

Therefore, although Eric promised to talk about it tomorrow, he did not expect much attention to whether Cruise would participate in "The Ghosts Are Not Ghosted". It is just right to choose patiently from these actors.

Eric looked at the information in the study, chatting with Xiao Nizi from time to time, and unconsciously the sky outside had all been dark.

At seven o'clock, Nicole called two people to finish the meal.

"Let's go, go to dinner, I think you must be hungry too. Yes, this evening is the premiere of "Who will be a millionaire", and all the questions you ponder can be caught in the question bank. It may happen tonight." Eric said, with Xiao Nizi out of the study.

In the dining room, Drew sat at the table and Brabra said that when he filmed "The Silent Lamb" in Pennsylvania, Nicole sat next to Eric, from time to time, holding a dish for a man, a gentle Thoughtful appearance. If the little Nizi who speaks is ten years younger, it looks very much like a family of three.

After dinner, Drew couldn't wait to come to a slightly smaller living room, turned on the TV and transferred to Fox TV, the show has not yet begun.

Soon after, Eric moved to a living room with a laptop, sat down in the middle of the couch, put the laptop on his lap and tapped it. Although it is the latest laptop of ibm, compared with the previous life, this notebook is still very clumsy and ugly, and the configuration is low. But now it is impossible to find a laptop that is too good on the market. Eric can only make do with it. Anyway, he just wrote the script on it and looked at the file. Although the memory of the computer is very low, it is enough for office work.

Nicole washed the tableware and quickly came to the living room with a fruit plate and sat down on the other side of Eric. Looking at Eric's fingers is as flexible as tapping on the keyboard, and there is a little adoration in the eyes. What else does this man have?

"Wow, it’s starting, Eric, don’t be busy, we’re watching TV.”

Eric nodded and closed the notebook.

The studio of "Who Will Be a Millionaire" is very simple. In the middle of the table, the host and the answering guests are sitting on both sides. Sitting on the side of the audience, there is a big screen behind, and you can see the problem. Content.

Participants are divided into several groups. Each group has to go through a short round of competition. Whoever answers enough questions beforehand can get a chance to meet face-to-face with the host.

"Hey, Eric, how do I feel that there is a big difference from the plan I have seen? Many settings are not used, and the title is not classified. I remember the plan you wrote. The guests can pick a setting like a certain kind of question. Oh, so disappointed," Drew looked at Eric and complained for a while.

Eric casually explained: "This is a strategy."

"What strategy?" Drew asked curiously, and Nicole also looked over.

"This is to facilitate the upgrade of the program to extend the life of the program. If the program is set up perfectly at the beginning, then there will be no room for change in the future. In this case, the audience will be annoying. Now, the life of this program is summed up. Now, the program doesn't look too perfect at first, and some novel links are preserved. After a period of time, the audience is experiencing aesthetic fatigue. When the ratings decline, Bring it up in time. It will once again arouse the interest of the audience. Just like the clothes that your girls wear, every year the clothing companies will introduce new styles, although the change is not too big, but as long as there is this gimmick, then appropriate Advertising, then you can let customers refresh their cards."

"It turned out to be like this," Shantou nodded, and Nicole showed a thoughtful look.

In the TV set, the first contestant has been selected and boarded the stage in the middle. After a brief introduction, he quickly started a nervous answer.

Although some of the links at the beginning of the program were relatively simple to set up, both Firefly and Fox had a lot of effort in the atmosphere.

Every word of the host, every sound coming from the TV, and even the countdown sound of the answer, all let the audience pick up the heartstring.

Moreover, the initial question is very simple, although individual guests on the stage may be hesitant, but if you are sitting in front of the TV, it may be a family, maybe a few words can be answered, this situation will also Let the audience in front of the TV have a sense of superiority, and soon like this program.

"Wow, where is the highest altitude in the world? The simple question is not known. Even I know it, Eric. This is not the childcare you are looking for. It deliberately hangs people's appetite." Looking at the hesitant look of the middle-aged man from Ohio on the TV, Drew asked suspiciously.

Eric shrugged: "How is this possible? This program is about to be true. These people are all selected from all over the United States. Plus, other TV stations and the media are watching, if we look for children. In case of exposure, the popularity of the show is very big. Although this is indeed a very simple question, everyone has their own knowledge blind spots, and no one can say that they will get stuck. ""

Drew nodded and reluctantly believed in Eric's words, and the answering guests in the TV set successfully completed the question after using the opportunity for help.

Eric did not follow the British version of the system using the fifteen questions, but chose twelve questions, and also set two hedge points in the fifth and tenth questions.

Because it was the first program, the program team specially selected some very good guests, and did not mind the emergence of a millionaire in the first program, which would stimulate the audience's interest.

In the end, because of the return from the East Coast, Drew insisted on watching more than half, lying on Eric's thigh and sleeping. At the end of the program, the phone in the living room rang, and Nicole stood consciously. Get up and take the mobile phone.

Eric pressed the button, um, ah, said a few words, hang up randomly.

"What?" Nicole whispered a few words and asked curiously.

"It’s roughly the ratings are counted out," Eric looked at Nicole and said calmly: "The peak audience is 33 million, with an average of 28 million, which is not as good as Friends."

Nicole is secretly screaming, with an average rating of 28 million. After that, it will definitely be a high-profile program with a rating of more than 20 million.

For such programs, the advertising fee for each issue is no less than $5 million, which is comparable to her current pay offer. And she can get one or two movies a year, and the pay is very unstable. But this program can get 5 million dollars a week. If the film pay has been maintained at the current level, the income of this program is estimated to be equivalent to her lifetime movie.

"Eric, how much can the fireflies get from this show?" Nicole couldn't help but ask.

Eric looked at the girl and it was not too sensitive. But it is not suitable for publicity everywhere: "We share copyright with Fox. So the advertising share is half-divided. The producer and the broadcaster are almost half-pointed. Moreover, the profit around such a variety show video is very small, so even if The ratings are comparable to those of Friends, but the profits they earned are far less than those of Friends. However, such programs can bring more popularity. Any TV series has a viewing age limit, but this file There aren't many restrictions on variety shows. I believe that people between the ages of eight and eight will be very interested."

Although Eric said a bit more, but Nicole is calculating quickly, then she found that Eric personally can get a million dollars from the movie every week, every Monday. Millions, in comparison, her current pay is simply not worth mentioning. It’s really more people than people.

The TV set was unknowingly played, and Eric looked strangely at Nicole, who was still sitting on the sofa, and hugged the sleeping hoe. Said: "It's already late, you have to rest early. I sent Drew back to the room."

"Oh... um." Nicole nodded quickly.

Eric put Drew back on her big bed in the bedroom, then returned to her bedroom to start washing, turning off the lights and not going to bed, the bedroom door was gently pushed open.

"Drew, is that you?" Eric thought Xiao Nizi ran to greasy him again and asked.

"It's me," Nicole said softly in the dark.

Eric originally wanted to go to the bedside lamp and heard Nicole’s voice and stopped.

The girl walked over in a flurry and quickly climbed into the big bed and got into his arms.

To be honest, Eric is still very happy to sleep in his arms with a fragrant female body. Put the girl in her arms and kissed her on the forehead and said, "Sleep."

"Well," Nicole said softly, and the uneasy little hand grabbed the key to Eric.

"Nicole, I am a little tired today," Eric Moore said, clutching the girl's back.

Nicole gasped and said, "You don't move, I will come."

The girl said that she had to take off her clothes, then opened the quilt and rode on Eric. The key was then swallowed deeply.

Eric reached out and held the girl's waist and slowly enjoyed the shaking of Nicole's hips.

I don't know how long it took, and the two men gave a sigh of satisfaction at the same time. Nicole squatted on Eric's chest and rested for a while, then extended her small tongue and smashed it on Eric's chest. Slowly slipped down and carefully cleaned Eric for a while before quickly ran into the bathroom.

After a while, Nicole came out again and shrank in Eric's arms.

"No security measures, no problem?" Eric Moss asked the girl's smooth bare back and whispered softly.

Nicole hesitated, and quickly said: "Do not worry, it's okay."

Ericton paused. At this time, he couldn’t say anything heavy. He could only say once again: "I don't want to have children so early."

"I understand," Nicole in the dark nodded in obedience, his eyes flashing a few times, and then dimmed. Although she had some thoughts in her heart, if Eric said so, she would still ignore it, then there would be no good results.

Eric seems to have realized Nicole's feeling of loss, and soon said: "Yes, I have a date tomorrow, and Tom Cruise, need a female companion, you go with me."

"Tom Cruise?" Nicole asked.

"Yes, about the hero of "The Ghosts Are Not Ghosted", I really don't like him. However, he is really suitable for this role, but I don't have much hope, just try to touch it. Cruise is now his own production company. I think the other party’s offer is definitely not too low. The possibility of talking is very high."

"Oh," Nicole nodded nodly.

At noon the next day, Eric took Nicole to a famous restaurant in Beverly Hills.

Speaking to the waiter, a waiter brought her and Nicole to the agreed seat, and looked at the time, it was almost twelve o'clock, less than five minutes from the agreed time. Eric originally thought that Cruise should have arrived long ago, and did not expect that the other party has not come yet. Therefore, he has no expectations for this date.

Nicole looked at the menu in her hand and asked Eric in a curious way: "Is it right here?"

Eric smiled awkwardly: "Reassured, yes, but in Hollywood, there are still people who can let me wait."

Nicole nodded and nodded. She could see that Eric had been a little absent-minded. Therefore, she also swept away, and the meeting in this place would not be too smooth.

Twelve is coming soon, Cruise's voice still does not appear, Eric is playing with the tableware in his hand, just telling the waiter to give them a cup of coffee or something, just remembering the voice of Cruise,

"I’m so sorry, Eric, traffic jam on the road,” Cruise said with an apology, but there was not much sorry expression on his face.

"It doesn't matter, we have just arrived," Eric shook hands with the other side, and then shook hands with Paula Wagner, who was next to Cruise. (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
