Chapter 256： caveat

It has already been at night. ~,

In the densely populated residential area of ​​northwestern Santa Monica, three tall girls with tall names each came out of the supermarket with a convenience bag, attracting the attention of the opposite sex, although this area is also home to many Hollywood. Stars, there is no shortage of beauty on the streets, but the scenes of the three gorgeous girls who are together are not common.

Walking on the far left, the very dark-skinned black-haired girl expertly took apart a pack of cigarettes in the convenience bag, completely ignoring the strange eyes of passers-by, and took out a squat in the corner of the mouth before asking the Latino girl in the middle. "Penny, what did the guy in the supermarket just stop you saying?"

The Latino girl took out a small business card from her pocket and gestured to the two women. She said: "He said that he is a scout of a brokerage company and thinks that I am like the Spanish actress Penelope Cruz. I want to invite me to the audition of their company."

The other two women squinted a little, and they laughed happily.

The three girls naturally Eric chose the three heroines for "Charlie's Angel". However, because "Charlie's Angel" is still in the preliminary preparation stage, there is no information to the outside world, so the one in Penelope's mouth A scout will make such an oolong.

Haha laughed a few times, and Charlize Theron on the other side asked: "How did you answer him?"

"I pretended not to speak English very much. He wrapped me around for a while and left only a business card to leave," said Penelope Cruze, who threw the business card into the trash, although she still With a very obvious accent, but English is very fluent.

Another laugh, Kate Beckinsale took a few cigarettes in his hand and suddenly complained: "There are two months, I know that training is so painful, I will not come."

Penelope Cruze and Charlize Theron heard the words and smiled silently, apparently having heard the habitual complaints of Kate Beckinsale more than once.

The most embarrassing Kung Fu training arranged by Eric is Kate Beckinsale, and Penelope and Charl are learning dance from an early age. There is basically no difficulty in completing the various actions, and the daily training is like the original dance class. Kate Beckinsale is different. She was only a few days of ballet training classes when she was a child. The body is now no different from ordinary people. In the first few days, even because of simple leg press training, I shed tears, but I finally persisted.

Beckinsale had a cigarette, and the three girls had already arrived at their residence. This is a separate small yard set up by Michelle Simmons, only half an hour away from the place where they participate in the training every day. .

Beckinsale threw the cigarette butts into the trash can next to it. I feel that I still have some meanings. I still want to take another one, but I can't see the door in the distance.

The other two girls just blinked at her movements, and they didn’t say anything. They occasionally smoked one or two cigarettes, but they were not as frequent as Beckinsale. However, the two girls did not dissuade them. Meaning, Michelle Simmons asked them to live in harmony when talking privately. But it does not mean that they will really be intimidating each other. After all, they are competitors.

Charlize Theron took out the key and opened the door. Three people walked into the living room together. Beckinsale threw the convenience bag on the coffee table and leaned on the sofa lazily. He picked up the remote control and turned on the TV. After the other two girls put down the convenience bag, they got into their rooms and planned to put on more clothes at home.

Penelope Cruze just took off his coat and heard Beckinsale in the living room shouting: "Penny, Charlie. Come out and see the premiere of "Jurassic Park"."

I didn't intend to pay attention to it, but I heard "Jurassic Park." Penelope Cruze thought of another name and immediately walked out of the bedroom, and Charlize Theron also came out at the same time.

At this time, the TV just played the picture of the reporter who was spoiled.

"... Mr. Williams, what happened to you about the "King Ling Xiong Feng" starring Mr. Stallone recently by the competitors?"

I saw a brief cold spot in the TV screen. Charlize Theron laughed and pulled a pillow next to him and squeezed it a few times. He said with sorrow: "Hah, this guy is in trouble."

These days, about the smearing of "The Bear Mountain", Charlize Theron also heard about it. As a girl who is proud of her heart, Charlize Theron is still remembering the picture that she was completely ignored that day. . It’s really pleasing to think about Eric’s eating at this time.

Penelope Cruze looked at the little flames of ambition, looking at the young man in the screen, as if he had never heard of Charlize Theron, but Kate Beckinsale looked at it unexpectedly. The reaction of Charlize Theron.

However, Eric then eased the crisis with ease and eased, and the applause was heard.

When Charlize Theron was a little depressed.

Penelope Cruze still did not leave the TV screen, but the body came over and asked: "Charlie, have you not seen Eric Williams, what do you think of him?"

"A...very abominable guy," Charlize Theron thought about it, and said that after the female reporter on the TV asked about the box office expectations of Jurassic Park, she couldn’t stand it. Live erected ears, the guy on TV seems to want to circumvent this problem, the female reporter is chasing after.

"...However, I think everyone is more curious. Since Mr. Williams can break the routine to arrange 3,000 premiere screens for this movie, what is your box office expectation?"

Then she saw Eric Williams lift the microphone and put it to her lips. After a short hesitation, she said, "If you really want to know, then I am global to Jurassic Park." The box office is expected to be one billion dollars!"

Even sitting in front of the TV, the three girls can still hear the appearance of the premiere scene, just a little chaotic picture, the reporters who were quietly sitting in the audience waiting for the opportunity to ask questions can no longer help, and they took the initiative to get up. I asked aloud in a loud voice.

Charlize Theron and Kate Beckinsale were shocked to hear the numbers Eric spit out. One billion dollars, there has never been a movie in Hollywood history that has reached this box office number. However, Penelope Cruze around them is even more surprised: "One million. How could it be only one million? How is it possible? !"

Charlize Theron stunned and didn't respond. Kate Beckinsale glanced at Penelope Cruze: "Penny, it's a billion dollars. Not a million."

In English, the two measurement words million (the llion) and the billion (the llion) are different only in the first word, and the pronunciation is very similar. It is no wonder that Penelope Cruze will listen to the fork. Of course, this is mainly She didn't even think about the box office of a movie toward billions of dollars.

Penelope realized that he was wrong, but he was embarrassed, but then reflected the number of billions of dollars. The delicate chin suddenly fell: "Wow, one billion... dollars!"

Because Eric’s answer. The premiere questioning session was no longer sustainable. Several of the masters of Jurassic Park hurriedly answered a few questions and then evacuated the stage. Then the TV began to broadcast the trailer of Jurassic Park.

According to Eric’s original idea, the Jurassic Park’s two-minute trailer, the complete picture of a giant dinosaur did not appear, but the expression changes of several protagonists in the trailer and the last one The roaring monsters roared, and people still had strong expectations for the film.

After the trailer was broadcast, Kate Beckinsale couldn’t wait to say: "Penny. Charlie, how about going to the midnight night together?"

Charlize Theron is not interested in the look: "Is that guy not talking about it, don't go into the cinema because of propaganda, so let's go check it out. If you feel good, I will consider whether to see two. eye."

After Penelope and other Charlize finished, he said: "Kate, then let's go together."

"Okay," Kate Beckinsale nodded immediately.

Charlize Theron was dissatisfied: "Hey, you two didn't see the trailer just now. It was "Jurassic Park", but even the shadow of a dinosaur did not appear, I am sure, you see absolutely If you are disappointed, you might as well not go."

Kate Beckinsale and Penelope Cruze looked at each other and Beckinsale said: "Charlie, how do I feel like you have always been resentful against Mr. Williams?"

Penelope Cruze also nodded and agreed: "Yes, yeah, like a... um, like a blame, oh, what did you meet that time?"

"Resentment...wife," Charlize Theron dragged her voice and made a haha, but she seemed to be aware of something, but her eyes were a little flustered. She lost her pillow and stood up: "Ignore you, I Go to the bath and sleep."

Penelope Cruze looked at the back of Charlize Theron, who was fleeing: "Charlie, it’s only seven and a half now."

Kate Beckinsale also said: "So, are we going to buy your ticket tomorrow?"

"You can buy the ticket directly to the tramp, I will never go."

Penelope smiled a few times and chased after him: "Then we will buy one for the 'wanderer' and you are responsible for the popcorn money."

In the bathroom, Charlie’s roaring roar: "You two, shut me up."

"Ha ha..."

......

While a few girls were playing, the Hollywood Chinese Grand Theatre, the stage has begun to play movies, Eric has just entered the background, was surrounded by a group of people. Charlie West, who was responsible for the preparation of this premiere, looked at Eric's gloomy face and explained in a tone: "Mr. Williams, I have already made it clear that the reporter is..."

Eric waved his hand: "Forget it, I don't care about this."

Charlie West closed his mouth immediately.

Jerry Bruckheimer saw that no one else dared to speak any more, and had to say: "Eric, what do we do next?"

Eric did not answer Jerry’s words. He silently took a bottle of water from the staff and took a few mouthfuls. He said to the people around him: “Who is the person in charge of Carophone’s film now?”

I heard that Eric said that everyone present was aware that Eric was completely smashed this time.

If Caroline is just doing some small tricks in private, it’s fine to take a ride on Jurassic Park. But directly at the premiere of "Jurassic Park", it has already touched the bottom line that fireflies can tolerate.

After watching Allen hear Eric's words, he immediately went to the vicinity to start making calls. Jerry Bruckheimer couldn't help but whispered: "Eric, the timing is not suitable for making too excited. The column's reaction is too easy to give a handle."

"I know, don't worry," Eric nodded.

The people came together in a lounge and waited for the film to end after the curtain call.

After a while, Allen walked in with a mobile phone and yelled at the microphone and sneaked into Eric. "Eric, Carlock is now responsible for Mario Casal, who was the company. One of the two founders, he is online now, do you want to..."

Eric shook his head and said indifferently: "You told him that this is the end of the matter. I don't want to see any messy news in any media, otherwise I will erase the name Caroque from Hollywood. I am very angry today, I am not in the mood to make fun of people."

Allen nodded and walked out with his mobile phone.

Eric sighed and sighed. If it wasn’t for the guy who had just spoiled, he wouldn’t easily reveal his expectations for the box office of Jurassic Park. Hollywood’s highest box office in the world’s box office was in the $800 million. If the number of billions is thrown out, it will definitely cause a discussion in the media. Moreover, these arguments are not necessarily good results, if the first week of the Jurassic Park’s box office does not reach a stunning degree. Then the wind is likely to change at any time.

But because of the spoiler, Eric had to come up with a more explosive news, and the topic caused by the reporter’s trouble would be suppressed as much as possible. Otherwise, even if no one pushes, there will be a lot of newspapers tomorrow. Such as the 'interpretation is to cover up, cover up is the fact' argument, fireflies smeared the "King of the Bears" this black pot is estimated to get rid of.

Eric has just told Alan that the words of the person in charge of Carlock are not completely scornful. Karlo Film is a wholly-owned production company that relies entirely on external financing to make movies. Even its own distribution channels are not. If Eric really wants to make the film company die, it is not difficult. As long as the wind blows out, the fireflies will attack the film produced by Carlos, then the box office will be shown by the fireflies in recent years. Concerned about the risk of investment, those German investors will certainly not easily invest in the film company. After all, the film companies that Hollywood can invest in are not only the Caroque family, there is no external financing, and it is inevitable that Karlock will close down.

Unfortunately, Eric can't do this, at least not for the time being. As Jerry Brookeheimer reminded, if the fireflies make a fierce counterattack now, it will definitely give people a handle.

A few minutes later, Allen walked back to the lounge again.

"Eric, Mario Casal firmly denied that Karok Films was involved in today's affairs. However, listening to his tone, he obviously was soft, and I think this should not happen again in the future. ”

"That's it," Eric nodded, let go of the matter and asked about the London premiere. (To be continued.)
