After breakfast, after seeing off his daughter and Jennifer Garner, Kelly Haynes returned to the house, and Eric had already walked downstairs, his suit and tie hanging in the crook of his arm, and a newspaper in his hand.

Kelly stepped forward, gently reached out and buttoned the collar of Eric's shirt, helped the man tie it, and asked, "What did you all talk about just now, for so long?"

"A very smart girl, just a few pointers," Eric leaned over and kissed the female assistant on the lips.

Kelly smiled and pushed Eric away, continued to tie her tie, remembering Jennifer Garner's somewhat red face after coming downstairs, and said, "Then Janicole is so lucky, I thought you did something else." ”

Eric didn't mention what had just happened, and said casually, "She's not my type, you know for sure." ”

Kelly fastened her tie, checked it again, and asked with a smile, "And what type do you like?"

Eric smiled and reached out to wrap his arms around the female assistant's soft waist and said, "Of course it's you." ”

Feeling that Eric seemed to want to push himself towards the sofa, Kelly blushed and hurriedly said, "Don't, Eric, it's eight and five now, and I'll be at the company before nine." ”

Although it was nearly an hour before nine o'clock, Eric also knew that the roads in Los Angeles would be congested during work hours, and he would be late if he didn't leave early. After kissing the female assistant on the cheek, Eric let go of her, handed the Los Angeles Times in his hand, pointed to the news item above, and said: "Ronald Perelman's Andrews Holdings Group suddenly announced yesterday that it has purchased $400 million in Firefly long-term bonds, and I don't think this matter will be so simple." It may involve these recent events. You bring this newspaper to Katzenberg to them. I'm going to see the report this afternoon. ”

Kelly heard Eric talk about business, and also showed a professional expression, quickly scanned the short press release, and nodded, "I'll give it to Mr. Katzenberg as soon as possible." ”

Eric remembered Chris, who had returned to New York from Boston, and he had told Chris to pay attention to Marvel-related news, and since it involved Ronald Perelman, the current actual controller of Marvel, he said: "In addition, inform Chris." Let him pay attention to this matter as well. ”

Kelly nodded again, then added, "Do you still need to inform Mr. Buffett about them?"

"They're sure they already know, but let's just let it go, and I think Warren Buffett and David West can definitely see some clues. ”

……

After Kelly drives to the Firefly headquarters in Burbank, Eric also rushes to Firefly Studios in Preavista.

Preavista is less than 10 kilometers from Santa Monica compared to Burbank, 20 kilometers away, and the roads are much better than in the city. Eric only took 20 minutes to arrive at the studio, thinking of yesterday's request for a meeting between Peter Schneider and Roy Disney, the head of the animation department, and Eric also planned to talk to each other, so he did not go directly to the Victoria's Secret studio in the studio. Instead, he came to his office in the administrative district.

I opened my computer and processed a few emails, and casually looked at the time. Finding that it was already a quarter past nine, Eric frowned, and was about to call to ask what was going on, when there was a knock on the office door.

Eric thought it was Peter Schneider and Roy Disney who had arrived, and although the other party was fifteen minutes late, Eric was not a harsh boss, not to mention that the two sides were likely to part ways next, so he said to the door as usual: "Please come in." ”

The one who opened the door and came in was the secretary of his studio office.

The female secretary glanced at Eric's face, seemed to be a little cautious, and said, "Mr. Williams, I just received a call from Mr. Peter Schneider, who said that he had an urgent matter and therefore could not come. ”

Eric shook his head and laughed, not knowing whether it was self-deprecation or something else, and said, "Since they are going to cancel the meeting, why don't they call in advance, and wait until the time is over, are they kidding me?"

It was also the first time for the female secretary to encounter a subordinate who released the boss's pigeon in such a rude way, and she realized that the young boss would be angry, and when she heard Eric's question, she shrunk her neck a little helplessly, and whispered: "Mr. Williams, this is ...... I don't know. ”

Eric suddenly lost interest in pursuing this matter, waved his hand at the female secretary, and said, "Forget it, you can go back to work." ”

The female secretary left the office silently like a cat, Eric patiently read some emails, and most of the irritability in his heart disappeared, turned off the computer, and left the administration building to Victoria's Secret studio in the studio area.

As soon as he walked into the busy studio, Edward Lazek, who was the deputy of the Victoria's Secret show project, greeted him with Todd Thomas, the chief designer of Victoria's Secret, and said: "Eric, the British military style angel suit you designed yourself has been completed, do you want to see it?"

Eric sensed that Edward Lazek's attitude seemed to be a little earnest today, but he didn't care and nodded.

The three of them walked together to a work area, and Eric first saw the plastic model's memory angel outfit, the striking red of the British classic military uniform and the stunning black wings on the back, which was the second outfit of the opening Victoria's Secret show in 2013, and the model was Behati Princelo, nicknamed 'Little Pumpkin'. As a senior uniform controller, Eric's most impressive impression of that Victoria's Secret show was that in addition to stealing the spotlight and grabbing a certain moldy girl who had no friends, it was this British military-style angel suit.

Moreover, Eric did not choose this angel outfit for no reason, the theme provided by the Victoria's Secret design team happened to have a set of British style, since there was a ready-made template in mind, Eric decisively decided on this theme, and changed the theme name to a term that has just become popular in the rock world in recent years - British invasion. It's just that, in addition to this military uniform, Eric didn't take out other angel outfits to steal the work of the design team, anyway, the British elements are nothing more than gentlemen, footballs, umbrellas, etc.

Edward Lazek and Todd Thomas were equally pleased with Eric's angel suit, and the three of them stood side by side for a while. Edward said, "Eric. Why don't you find a try-on model and put it on and see how it looks?"

"No, I don't. Eric shook his head and said, "Call and ask Miss Kruger to come and try it out for yourself, I designed this angel costume especially for her." ”

Diane Kruger, who is just eighteen years old, has a lot of similarities with the 'little pumpkin' in her memory, so it is perfect for her to wear this angel outfit, Eric does not plan to immediately play the sky-high BRA gimmick this year, so this angel outfit can be used as the opening of the first Victoria's Secret show, whether it is stunning or the meaning it represents in the British theme.

The first Victoria's Secret angels who completed the signing have begun training at this time. Diane Kruger was no exception, and when he heard Eric's instructions, Todd Thomas took the initiative to walk away and call the other party to inform him.

Edward Lazek felt that Eric must be in a good mood at this time, so he said, "Eric, we still have one last spokesperson undecided, Miss Schiffer ...... there"

Eric patted his head and said, "Oh, I've been so busy lately, I almost forgot about it, Claudia has contracts with other brands of Neyyi." I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in the catwalk, do you have anyone to recommend?"

Eduard Lazek said even if there was no such obstacle. Claudia Schiffer will definitely not participate in the Victoria's Secret catwalk now.

However, he didn't show his thoughts, hesitated, and said: "Eric, Miss Cindy Crawford contacted us yesterday, and she said that she still wants to participate in this Victoria's Secret show and can fully cooperate with the schedule of the project. ”

"Isn't she already ......," Eric said absentmindedly, then suddenly turned to look at Edward Lazek and smiled, "Did something happen?"

Edward Lazek realized that Eric might not really know about it, and explained: "Warner suddenly fired Miss Crawford and handed over the heroine of Confrontational Games to Miss Schiffer. ”

Eric suddenly realized that Joe Silvo must still be a little reluctant, and wanted to pull himself in by having Claudia join that unfortunate project. However, Eric rarely asks women what movies they will take, and women don't bother her with these things unless it's something special, so Joe Silvo's calculations were wrong from the start. If this project is still the same as the original, then if Claudia accepts this film contract, it will definitely have a great impact on her popularity. In the original time and space, Cindy Crawford completely ruined her Hollywood road with this film.

However, after thinking about it, even if the movie was still pounced, with her own presence, Claudia would never fall into the fate of Cindy Crawford in the first place, so Eric dismissed the intention of mixing.

Noticing Edward Lazek, who was waiting for his reply, Eric realized that the deputy must have been asked to do so, and said with a smile: "If you think it's suitable, then the last spokesperson will be given to Cindy Crawford." ”

Cindy Crawford is one of the most popular of the top models, and has her own TV show a few years ago. Victoria's Secret's debut is a public card, and adding such a supermodel can just boost popularity. Eric didn't even give the other party a chance to speak at the "True Lies" celebration party, mainly because this woman was a little greedy and wanted to take care of both the movie and the catwalk, and it was definitely impossible to make a movie, and it must be Victoria's Secret rehearsal time that was squeezed. Eric took the show as seriously as he did when he made the film, and certainly wouldn't allow such a restless factor to exist.

Edward originally thought that Eric would refuse, but he didn't expect him to agree so simply, and his face was a little weird.

"Edward, you don't think I'm messing with her heroine's chances, are you?"

Edward reacted, smiled, and said, "Recently, many people in the circle think so, but I don't think so now. ”

Eric didn't mind the little gossip revealed by Edward, and shrugged, "Although I don't know exactly what happened here, Cindy Crawford looks more like the fish in the pond that was affected, and I didn't expect Joe Silvo to invite Claudia, but well, since the benefits fall to my woman, I will carry this black cauldron." ”

Edward thought what Eric said was funny and smiled. But there are also some people who don't understand the terriers that affect the pond fish. He asked curiously.

"Oh. It's simple," Eric explains, "There was a fire in the city, the inhabitants drained the moat to put out the fire, and then the fish died of thirst. ”

Edward Lazek nodded, "It's a fable, but I haven't heard of it." ”

"It is not surprising that you have not heard of the fable of the East. ”

Edward Lazek did not press further, saying, "Miss Crawford is still waiting for news. Why don't I call her and ask her to come and talk about the contract?"

"Okay," Eric nodded casually, and asked again, "How's the music going?"

"I've picked five songs for each theme, and I'll let Sam bring them to you. ”

……

Cindy Crawford feels that the experience of the last few days is really terrible, that hateful bastard in revenge for her refusal to walk the Victoria's Secret catwalk, not only ruined the movie role that she spent months hard to win, but even more annoyingly, the other party also handed over the role that was originally his own Qingren.

If only that was it, because the news that Eric wanted to target her inexplicably spread in the circle, not only did some of her connections in Hollywood immediately turn away from her. Even several endorsement contracts that were being negotiated were suddenly withdrawn by the merchant, according to her agent. The other party is worried that Eric Williams' targeting will make her banned.

Although she is very smart, she can't understand why Eric Williams blocked himself, even if he now owns the largest media group in North America, it is impossible to influence all the media, right?

When I asked her agent, her agent couldn't tell her why, but she still suggested that if she wanted to continue her career, it was best to take the initiative to compromise with the other party.

Bastard!

Bichi!

Looking out the window at the huge studio, Cindy Crawford cursed loudly in her heart, but after the driver opened the car door, it took less than a second for the woman with an ugly face to return to her previous charming and elegant posture, and after getting out of the car, she threw a charming smile at the stunned driver.

Cindy Crawford has always enjoyed the way men look at her. It's just that she didn't realize that if it weren't for the feeling of being in the limelight like an addiction, she wouldn't have to pay so much to maintain this aura.

Jeremy, the agent, stepped out of the co-pilot, and the two were about to walk to the studio, when another car also stopped in front of the studio.

Diane Kruger was training the tablecloth when she heard Eric's call and hurriedly changed out of her practice clothes and rushed over, because she didn't expect it, she was simply wearing a T-shirt and jeans today. Therefore, after getting out of the car, I happened to meet Cindy Crawford, who was wearing a black low-cut long skirt with a strong aura, and I couldn't help but feel a little inferior.

Cindy Crawford glanced at the young girl who had been picked by Eric himself, and looked her eyes up and down, a hint of jealousy flashed in her heart, but the corners of her mouth appeared with undisguised mockery.

What a man with bad vision.

Thinking so, seeing someone in the studio greet her, Cindy Crawford's expression immediately returned to normal, thinking that the other party was here to pick her up, and greeted him with a smile.

"Cindy, why are you here?" As the chief designer of Victoria's Secret, Todd Thomas certainly knew Cindy Crawford, but before the other party could answer, Todd Thomas beckoned to Diane Kruger eagerly: "Miss Krueger, let's go in, Mr. Williams has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Diane Kruger nodded, did not say hello to Cindy Crawford, and hurriedly followed Todd Thomas into the studio.

Cindy Crawford and her agent Jeremy looked embarrassed at the same time, and they looked at each other, both of them patiently said nothing, and were about to enter the studio, but were again embarrassed by the tall doorman's outstretched hand.

In order to prevent the information of the Victoria's Secret show from being leaked in advance, the doorman of the studio was ordered to pack up and leave immediately if anyone without permission entered the studio.

Therefore, although Todd Thomas had just been seen greeting the girl, neither of them took the initiative to show their passes, they were not notified, and the doorman did not dare to risk losing his job to let the other person in.

Feeling so neglected, Cindy Crawford felt that the hatred in her heart had risen again, and was almost about to burst out. His agent, Jeremy, was a little more sophisticated, and took the initiative to explain: "It was Mr. Edward Lazek who invited us over. ”

The doorman nodded and said, "I'm sorry, sir, I need to ask first." ”

Since it was only a studio, there was no internal telephone installed at the doorman, and the doorman who spoke said something to the other companion and walked towards the studio.

After a few minutes, the other man returned again, and simply waved Cindy Crawford and the two in.

Cindy Crawford unconsciously clenched her fists, but there was already an urge to turn away in her heart, just now the ugly duckling-like little Bichi was picked up, she came in person, but there was no one to greet her, what is this!

Jeremy didn't want Cindy Crawford to turn around and leave because he was angry, and if the employer was really banned, it would be difficult for him to find such a profitable supermodel client, which was related to his own income. Pulling the girl, Jeremy whispered, "Cindy, let's go in." ”

Cindy Crawford thought that the two guards must be mocking herself now, but Jeremy's words seemed to give her a step, and nodded, and Cindy Crawford walked towards the studio where the music was heard with a cold expression. (To be continued.) )
