Chapter 333: You Must Be Crazy

With a lot of doubts, Eric returned to the hotel after cleaning up the beginning and end of the set, and found that the first floor of the crew was deserted, and the lively scene after the crew finished work had completely disappeared.

As soon as he pushed open the door and walked into his room, a pink figure floated up to him with a coquettish cry, wrapped around Eric like a koala and kissed him as a routine.

"Okay, Drew, why did you come to New York?" Eric dragged Drew off his body and looked at it, the girl was wearing a pink knee-length skirt, the original bag and bun had become a shawl wavy curl, it seemed that she had her hair connected, and a bunch of oblique bangs on her forehead set off the baby's face with a few different sexual atmosphere.

"I'm here to visit," Drew said with a grin, pulling Eric to his side and sitting down, straddle Eric again.

Eric looked at the girl and rolled her eyes a few times, and quickly realized that today's incident was inseparable from Xiao Nizi.

slapped the girl's little buttocks, and Eric said, "Okay, let's be honest, what are you planning?" ”

"Hee-hee, I won't tell you," Drew said playfully with his little hand on Eric's chest, and Eric scratched the girl's squeaky nest directly, and after the little girl writhed, Eric let her go.

"To say or not to say?" Eric made a gesture to keep clutching.

"Okay, okay, you'll know later," Drew said, standing up and taking a few deep breaths before taking out an eyepatch from the coffee table, "Now, put it on first, I'll take you somewhere." ”

Eric took it and played with it twice, looked up and smiled, "What if I don't want to?" ”

"Then I'll ...... I'll show you," Nizi immediately threatened.

"It's not a common scenario. Come, cry," Eric said immediately with 'interest'.

Drew wrinkled his baby face. After a few sniffles, not a single tear came out. Then he screamed and threw himself into Eric's arms, scratching at Eric like a little wild cat: "Bring it, bring it, bring it ......"

"Okay, don't scratch it, I'll just bring it," Eric said helplessly. But I was also curious in my heart, wanting to see what tricks the girl would do today.

Putting the blindfold on, Drew picked up Eric and walked out.

Eric only felt himself in the elevator and was pulled into a car, then felt the sound of the car starting.

"Hey, let's talk about it first, don't play too much, or I'll be angry."

"Am I that kind of person?" The girl retorted dissatisfiedly.

"Aren't you?"

"Hmph."

The speed wasn't fast, and Eric wasn't in a hurry. Leaning on the back of the seat with an eye patch, just enough to close my eyes and rest for a while, I don't know how long it took. Eric felt that the car was still driving and had no intention of stopping, and Eric was already a little drowsy.

"How long will it take?" Eric couldn't help but ask.

"Don't worry," the girl looked at the pager she had been holding in her hand, in fact, the car had been circling around the streets of Manhattan to stall for time, but Eric didn't know it.

Eric didn't speak again, leaning back in his chair again.

The pager in his hand finally sounded, and Drew gestured to the driver. The speed of the car increased a little, and it only took more than ten minutes. We came to our destination.

Pull Eric all the way out of the underground parking lot and onto the elevator. A few minutes later, the girl pushed open a door, leaned into Eric's ear and whispered 'surprise', then quickly ripped off Eric's blindfold.

The sound of thumping salutes and flying streamers rushed to the face, and the people in the hall were clearly rehearsed and spoke in unison.

"Happy Birthday!"

"Wow," Eric sighed a little bewildered, hearing this, he finally remembered, today is May 16th, the birthday of the original owner of his body, Eric didn't care much about birthdays in his previous life, let alone now, plus his busy feet don't touch the ground these days, Eric can't remember this matter even more.

Familiar faces flocked to him, in addition to the crew members these days, the actors and directors who had worked with him over the past year basically came, the executives of Firefly and Pixar also appeared here, and Eric also saw Stan, who was supposed to be in Los Angeles. Winston, and James, who was supposed to be preparing "Terminator 2". Cameron et al.

Obviously, in order to help himself prepare for this birthday party, Drew must have put a lot of thought into it, and it is not so easy to hide it from himself.

huddled together and frolicked, and then everyone slowly dispersed.

"Hi Jonah, how is the Silence of the Lambs doing...... Very good, my movie? Of course, it's almost closed. ”

"Wow, I can't believe you're here too, Tom, what's your film lately...... Of course, of course, what I said still counts. ”

"Hello, Julia...... Hey, Liz, it's my birthday, you can't do that, like an old hen. ”

"Robert, how was the filming of "Sleeping with the Enemy...... Well, when I'm done with "People and Ghosts", I'll go over and take a look...... You should trust Julia, she has enough box office appeal right now. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After a long circle and greeting the guests one by one, Eric finally had a short rest, found a sofa in the corner and sat down, and Xiao Nizi, who had been rightly wrapping around him, carefully took a glass of juice for Eric .

At this time, James, who had said hello not long ago. Cameron holding his wife, Catherine. Bigelow walked over again.

"Hi Jim, and Ms. Bigelow," Eric straightened up, James. Cameron and Catherine. Bigelow sat down next to Eric together.

Looking at the couple, Eric couldn't help but think of some memories of his previous life, and Cameron didn't say anything, Catherine. Bigelow, however, is also a legendary woman in Hollywood, and the female director has made films with completely different themes from other women in Hollywood. Bigelow's films have little to do with women at all.

Listen to the titles of her films, "Assassination*," "Bomb Disposal Unit," "K-19: The Widow Maker," "Apocalyptic Frenzy," and ......

And. Most importantly, in parallel time and space, Catherine. Bigelow is the first female winner of Best Director in Oscar history. Moreover, the Oscars of that year. Catherine. Bigelow's biggest opponent was none other than James who was sitting next to her at this time. Cameron, whose wonderful Cheng dΓΉ is enough to shoot a movie, such as "The Counterattack of the Ex-Wife" or something.

In memory, James. It was during the filming of "Terminator 2" that Cameron and "Terminator 2" heroine Linda . Hamilton had a spark, and after the release of "Terminator 2", Cameron quickly and Katherine. Bigelow is divorced.

"Eric. Actually, I want to discuss something with you," said James. Cameron said after greeting Eric.

"Huh?" Eric made a puzzled expression, and said in his heart that he wouldn't have to make the best investment so soon, why hasn't the movie started filming yet?

Seeing Eric's expression, James. Cameron looked at his wife, Catherine. Bigelow took the initiative to speak, "That's right, Mr. Williams......"

"Just call me Eric," Eric interrupted.

Catherine. Bigelow was not displeased. He nodded and said, "Some time ago, I got a good script. It's a story about surfers, but because of a casting conflict, Columbia Pictures, which originally owned the rights, abandoned the project, so I'm now looking for investors. ”

When Eric heard the word 'surfer', he vaguely remembered a certain movie in his mind, but he hadn't seen it, he had only seen some introductions in his previous life, and he only remembered the male protagonist of that movie.

"Can you tell us about the plot?" Eric asked.

"Something like this. Johnny, a newly appointed young FBI agent, is investigating a bank robbery after a lot of pursuit. He found that many clues pointed to a group of surfers. So Johnny came to the beach in Southern California and explained to the young surf instructor Taylor on the beach......"

It took five minutes. Catherine. Bigelow briefly recounted the whole story, and also shared some of his own views on the shooting.

"So, you're hoping to tell this story even darker, right?" Eric asked.

Catherine. Bigelow nodded: "I think this can be more humane and more realistic." ”

"By the way, you just said that you had a conflict with Colombia in casting, who did you choose the male lead?" Although Eric already had the answer in his mind, he asked cautiously.

"Keanu. Reeves, "Catherine. Bigelow said: "The big boy played Ted last year in 'The Adventures of Bill & Ted,' and Columbia said Keanu. Reeves' image is very different from that of an FBI agent, but I think Keanu. Reeves is definitely capable of being a great action actor, and he has that potential in him. ”

Sure enough, Eric said in his heart, and after remembering the brief introduction to this movie in his memory, Eric had an eight-point affirmation. Bigelow says Keanu. Reeves' name, Eric no longer had any doubts. I don't know exactly what the movie was, but one thing Eric does remember very well is that the best movie was a box office success.

As soon as this can be confirmed, Eric has already made a decision.

"Ms. Bigelow, I need a detailed script and project budget information," Eric said.

Cameron and Catherine. Bigelow looked surprised, and since Eric said so, it must mean that the other party agreed. The couple didn't have much hope originally, after all, neither of them thought it was a commercial film, otherwise, Colombia would not have given up on the project.

"Wei ...... Eric, I didn't bring these materials with me today, but I can give them to you in three days. ”

Eric nodded and said, "By the way, who will be the producer of your movie?" ”

Catherine. Bigelow glanced at her husband: "Originally, Jim had agreed, but now it seems that we have to change the maker, because we can't confirm when we will be able to get investment, and I think it's not too late for Jim to finish filming "Terminator 2". ”

"Then I'll make it myself," Eric said after a moment's thought.

"You're coming?" Catherine. Bigelow suddenly showed a faint look of doubt.

"Hey, Kate, don't you believe Eric has the strength?" Cameron pretended to be disgruntled and glared at his wife.

Catherine. Only then did Bigelow react, although Eric is only 20 years old today, but the achievements of this young man in front of him have made more than 90% of Hollywood directors feel inferior, plus the other party now runs Hollywood's second largest film company after the seventh, and the producer of a movie must be more than enough.

"All right," Catherine said. Bigelow nodded, "I was just thinking, Eric, don't you need to make your own movie?" ”

"Of course it does, but it doesn't seem to be a conflict, it just so happens that I haven't done any specific production work before, and I believe it's also a workout," said Catherine. Bigelow showed the look just now, and Eric hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't worry, Ms. Bigelow, you should believe in my strength, I think, as long as you know enough about me, no one in Hollywood will doubt that I have this strength, right?" ”

"Like, yes," Catherine . Bigelow finally nodded.

Seeing that things were so easily resolved, Cameron's expression moved, and he wanted to make persistent efforts, such as ...... Add a little more budget to Terminator 2 or something.

However, Eric obviously saw Cameron's intention to fight the snake with the stick, and it was obviously not a good idea to let Cameron succeed so easily, so Eric stood up directly: "That's it, Jim, I'll talk about the specific things later, today is my birthday, have fun." ”

With that, Eric let Nizi take his arm and walk somewhere else.

"Hey, Jim, that little guy must have seen what you're trying to say," and after Eric left, Catherine. Bigelow teased with a faint teasing.

Cameron shrugged indifferently: "Anyway...... Sooner or later, you won't be able to escape. ”

Catherine. Although Bigelow wanted to persuade his husband to be more restrained, considering Cameron's harsh and fastidious character when making movies, he still gave up, he knew that his husband would definitely not listen to him.

"Jim, let's be honest, how much are you going to spend on Terminator 2?"

Cameron thought about it for a moment, then looked around, and sneakily held out a finger at his wife.

Catherine. Bigelow took a breath: "100 million dollars? ”

Cameron nodded.

"You must be crazy, that little guy is going to be by you" Catherine. Bigelow said helplessly, after all, in the entire Hollywood, so far there has not been a film with an investment of 100 million US dollars, and an investment of more than 50 million is enough for the film company to hype.

"He has money, and it's not for making movies," Cameron retorted with a pum. (To be continued m.) (To be continued)
