As more and more people on the party duì, Michael Eisner, who had only been there for more than ten minutes, took the lead in getting up and saying goodbye on the grounds that there were still things to be done, and Eric of course had to send him off in person.

"Eric, I heard that you have been shortlisted for the main competition in Venice?" asked Michael Eisner as he waited for the elevator.

Eric nodded: "Yes, but this is a horror film after all, and there is little hope of winning the award, and sending it to Venice is just to brush up on the popularity and help the European distribution." ”

"I think the film is likely to win an award, as long as the publicity goes in the right direction," says Michael Eisner, the elevator door opens, and the two walk in together.

"Propaganda direction?" asked Eric as he pressed the elevator button, confused.

"Well," says Michael Eisner, "although it is a horror film, I think this film can have more deeper meanings to explore, such as the attachment to life and the fear of death, and the sincere love of a mother for her two children." The most important thing is that the background of this movie is after the Second World War, so you can use the banner of anti-war to promote this horror film in terms of the harm of war to human nature, and it is the shadow of war that has suppressed the hostess's body and mind for a long time, which made Grace make the crazy move of suffocating her two children. Now that the situation in Europe is very volatile, and the slightest mistake could lead to another conflict, the jury of the Venice Film Festival wants to make a statement if it is carried out in the direction of anti-war propaganda and is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. will definitely not let this movie go home empty-handed, you must know that movies and politics have never been inseparable. ”

Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy. Eric sighed in admiration, he had been trapped in the shackles of horror films that were not liked by the festival jury, and he didn't think about anything else: "Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Eisner, I'll do my best to let people do this." ”

Just being shortlisted and winning awards will be treated differently in the hearts of fans in the future. Just like the Oscars, everyone pays special attention to Oscar-winning films. But for those shortlisted films, although the quality will not be much worse than the award-winning films. But few people pay attention.

The elevator reached the parking lot below, and the two walked together to Michael Eisner's car, where Michael's assistant and driver were already waiting.

Michael got into the car, but didn't just leave. Instead, he beckoned Eric to sit in as well.

After Eric sat down beside him, Michael Eisner said, "Eric, how about working with Disney next year?"

Eric was stunned, he thought Michael Eisner was going to say something about today's two movies, but he didn't expect the other party to jump directly to next year.

"Mr. Eisner, I can't give you an immediate answer to this matter, but I've had a great time working with Fawkes. Eric shook his head slightly.

Michael Eisner could see that Eric was a little insincere, and the cooperation between the two companies has always been based on profit. Mixed with personal feelings, because of the impact on interests and other factors, it will only break down the relationship between the two parties in the end. In a few contacts. Michael Eisner believes that Eric will not be an emotional person.

"There's no hurry, Eric, you can think about it slowly, about today's two movies, Disney's share offer will fully reflect our sincerity. Michael Eisner paused. He continued: "I also heard that Firefly intends to acquire New Line to establish its own distribution channel, but how to say it. I've met Robert Shea a few times, this guy is very aggressive, but he doesn't have the talent to match, and the management style is too subjective and irrational, so I don't think it's a good choice to ask him to help you run the company. ”

Watching the Bentley slowly leave, Eric thought about Michael Eisner's words, and linked to some memories of the new line, Michael Eisner's evaluation of Robert Shea was still very pertinent.

In the previous life, because of the success of the series, Robert Shea insisted on forcibly launching the project, which resulted in huge losses, and at the same time, the new line lost its independence and was merged into the parent company Warner. However, Eric is not worried about this now, if he can go along with the new line, he will only let Robert Shea be in charge of the distribution of the film, as for the film production, Eric will definitely hold this part of the power firmly in his hands, and will not let Robert Shea get involved.

Representatives of several other major film companies were sent off one after another, and of course there were some separate exchanges in between, but no matter how much the executives interested in the two films spoke, Eric did not make any commitments. After sending off Amy Pascal, who was the last to leave, and returning to the banquet hall again, the party was basically his own person, and the other actors of the two crews who failed to participate in the audition were also affected by the appearance of the party. There are other people who are close to fireflies.,This kind of pie duì must be indispensable to a pseudo-Lori.,Drew was originally a pie duì creature.,I used to like to go to nightclubs.,But since being entangled with Eric.,The girl has quit this 'vice'.,But all kinds of pies are participating one after another.。

Grabbing Drew in a magenta dress in the crowd and knocking on Nizi's head to warn him not to drink, Eric walked over to the other two men, Quentin Tarantino and Lawrence Bender.

"Good evening, Eric," the two men greeted as Eric approached.

Eric smiled at the other party, "How's the preparations?"

Hearing Eric's inquiry, Quentin's tone was a little excited: "It's very smooth, Mr. Hansen has provided us with great convenience, and most of the roles have been determined, if you follow it, it will be able to start in September." ”

"Well, then come with me, and I'll show you Mr. Kim," Eric pointed in one direction and walked over with two men.

"Eric," Virginia couldn't help but take a step forward when she saw Eric approaching, but quickly stopped, this was a public place after all, and although her relationship with Eric was well known, it was not suitable for too closeness.

Eric looked at Virginia with a cautious look, smiled and hugged the girl, and kissed the girl lightly on the cheek, until the girl couldn't help but shyly and took the initiative to refuse, Eric let go of the petite body in his arms and turned to the tall man beside the girl.

"Hello, Mike," Eric held out his hand to Michael Madsen.

"Hello, Eric," he said a little dislike for Eric, so Michael Madsen's tone was a little cold, this reaction made Virginia anxious, if it wasn't for Eric watching, the girl would definitely pinch her brother hard. However, Eric didn't mind too much about Michael's reaction, and still enthusiastically introduced the other party to Quentin and Lawrence.

"This is Michael Madsen, and I think he's perfect for playing Mr. King. Michael, these two are Quentin Tarantino and Lawrence Bender, and you can talk about that separately. ”

Since they knew that it was impossible for Eric to recommend someone to refuse, Quentin and Lawrence greeted Michael warmly, at least on good terms with each other, and there would be no estrangement when filming in the future.

Looking at the three of them who were already talking, Eric took Virginia and left.

"Vicky, I heard you've been getting some appointments lately?" Eric took a glass of wine from the waiter's hand and sat down on the couch in the corner.

Virginia also sat down beside Eric: "Yes, Kapoor recommended it, there are a few scripts that I look good about, but I haven't made up my mind yet, I was going to ask your opinion first." ”

Eric waved his hand: "It's all pushed, at least wait until the release before making a decision, the movie that I will take now is estimated to be released at the end of the year, if the box office is not good, it will definitely affect the reputation it brings you, and the salary will definitely not be too high." ”

"Well, I'll listen to you," the girl nodded obediently, "Eric, Michael's attitude towards you is not too good, you ...... I hope you don't mind too much. ”

"Of course not," Eric laughed, "and if someone had taken over my sister, I wouldn't have a good look at him." ”

"Heh......" The girl chuckled lightly, and took the initiative to defend the man next to her, "You didn't dominate me." ”

"Of course not, Vicky, I just took you over, you were mine for a long time. ”

"Okay," the girl's cheeks flushed slightly, and she lowered her head slightly, "Eric, are you going to me tonight? ”

"No problem," Eric chuckled slightly, "Why don't we leave now?"

The girl hurriedly shook her head: "Eric, it's time for you to socialize with the others, don't stay by my side all the time." ”

"Don't worry, I just sent away a group of people, I'm also tired, rest for a while. ”

On the other side of the pie, Elizabeth was chatting with Julia with a glass of red wine, but found that the girl was always a little absent-minded, until Julia couldn't help but look in one direction again, Elizabeth followed Julia's gaze and caught the figure who was leaning on the sofa a little hanging, and next to him sat a woman in a black bandeau evening dress, which was the heroine.

"Julia, do you like him?" asked Elizabeth whispering, leaning into Julia's ear.

"Ah, this...... No," Julia followed Elizabeth's gaze to reflect who the girl was referring to 'he', and her first reaction in the panic was to deny it, but maybe it was because she had been suppressed for too long, and Elizabeth's skillful communication skills won her favor in a short period of time, Julia had unconsciously treated Elizabeth as a best friend, and after a short period of panic, Julia whispered: "Actually, I ...... I don't even know how I feel about him anymore, he's a very complicated person. ”

"Come with me, let's go have a good chat with Mr. Williams," Elizabeth looked at the girl's tangled appearance, directly grabbed Julia's arm, and walked in the direction of Eric in the other party's resistance. (To be continued)
