Because she has been haunted by Eric's request for her name yesterday, Kim Kardashian has not slept all night. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Kim Kardashian instinctively felt that Eric must be interested in her, and at first she was quite excited, if she could meet such a big person, no one would treat her like air again.

But then for the whole day, Eric's attitude towards her was nothing special, which made her both apprehensive and disappointed, and after the party, she tossed and turned in bed for several hours, looking at the light already shining out of the window, and walked out, not expecting to see Eric waking up so early and sitting in the yard reading the newspaper.

Hearing Eric greet her, Kim Kardashian hurriedly responded, "Morning, good morning, Mr. Williams." ”

Saying this, Kim Kardashian stood where she was and waited for a while, and when she saw Eric pay attention to the newspaper in her hand again, she hesitated, walked over and sat down on the other side of the long table, probed her brain, and said without words: "Mr. Williams, are you reading the Los Angeles Times?"

"yes. ”

Eric responded, took a sip of the milk next to him, and glanced at Kim Kardashian next to him casually, but saw her sitting across the long table, leaning slightly to her side, because she was only wearing a white vest, the two bulging balls on her chest seemed to be placed on the table, this visual stimulation suddenly made Eric choke, and a mouthful of milk squirted out.

Kim Kardashian originally noticed Eric's eyes, and was a little proud, but when she saw him choking, she quickly got up and came over: "Mr. Williams, are you okay?" ”

Eric waved his hand, saw Kim Kardashian hand over the box of tissues on the table, quickly took it, and pointed to the opposite side of the long table: "Don't come here, sit opposite." ”

Kim Kardashian was stunned and retreated a little aggrieved, but she still deliberately continued to pose just now, and when Eric cleaned up the milk stains on her clothes, Kim Kardashian hesitated and suddenly said, "Mr. Williams, I, this is true." ”

Eric reopened a newspaper and casually struck, "It looks like a fake." ”

"No, really," Kim Kardashian shook her head, looked around at the empty surroundings, and said boldly, "If you don't believe me, you can touch it, you can definitely feel it." ”

"Forget it, I won't give you a certificate if I touch it," Eric shook his head with a smile and added, "You're from New York?"

Kim Kardashian heard Eric take the initiative to ask her a question, and hurriedly said, "yes, how do you know?"

Eric shrugged, "I just think the Hiltons must live in New York." ”

Kim Kardashian didn't want Eric to think of her as Paris Hilton's sidekick all the time, and explained a little sloppily: "I, she and I were just classmates, we came to Los Angeles together for the summer vacation, and, um, I live at my dad's house, he's a businessman, he used to be a record company, and now he's in the juice business." ”

Sensing something was wrong, Eric looked up and asked, "Your dad's name is Robert Kardashian?"

Kim Kardashian's eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Mr. Williams, do you know him?"

That's right.

Robert Kardashian, the famous defense of Simpson's wife-killing case.

But something is not right, these are obviously the memories of Eric's previous life, according to the information in his mind, the Simpson wife murder case should have happened in 1994, due to the deep-seated racial issues involved, coupled with the background of the Los Angeles riots that had just occurred, this unsolved case almost touched the nerves of the entire United States in the original time and space, which can be described as a sensation.

However, in this time and space, it is now 1997, and Eric has not heard anything about the Simpson wife murder case, and it seems that something has changed again.

"I think I've heard someone say that," Eric perfunctorily said to Kim Kardashian, but a thought suddenly occurred in his heart, "Hearing you say that, your parents should be divorced, right?"

"yes, my stepfather's name is Bruce Jenner, and he used to be an Olympic champion, but now his main focus is on TV. ”

"Oh, what about your mother?"

"Her name is Chriss," Kim Kardashian said, adding a close look: "My mom loves 'The Pride of the Flyover,' and she often says that one day she's going to be on a reality TV show or something." ”

Eric didn't expect Kim Kardashian to suddenly bring this up, remembering yesterday's idea for a reality show about Hollywood girls' lives, this project definitely needs a producer. Neither he nor the girl could do it themselves, and Bruce Jenner and Chrissy Jenner, the couple who created "Walking with the Kardashians" in the original plane, were obviously a perfect fit. Maybe the two will lack some experience in program production, but in Hollywood, which employs millions of people in the film and television industry, there is never a shortage of technical production talents, what is lacking is only the ideas that can flourish and the execution that makes these ideas come true.

After sorting out his thoughts, Eric smiled and asked, "Is your mother really interested in reality TV?"

Kim Kardashian was a little confused, but she still nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"That's it," Eric looked around, simply took a piece of paper from the newspaper at hand, found a pen and wrote a string of numbers on it, handed it to Kim Kardashian, and said, "This is the phone number from my assistant's office, give this to your mother, of course, didn't you say that your stepfather is currently focused on TV shows, in this case, he can also participate." ”

Kim Kardashian was stunned to take the newspaper with the phone number written on it, although she is still in high school, but due to the exposure of the living environment from childhood to adulthood, she is not lacking in life experience, at this time, she instinctively felt that her family may be about to change dramatically because of this newspaper, clenched the number in her hand tightly, she began to stutter again, and said: "Wei, Mr. Williams, I, then, and then what?"

"Remember the Hollywood girl life reality show idea I mentioned yesterday, tell them about it, and in a week, make a reality show plan and show it to me, and if I'm satisfied, you can have your stepfather and mother as producers. ”

"Ah," said Kim Kardashian, a producer, this is one of the most powerful classes in Hollywood. Moreover, the producer of the TV show has even more power than the filmmaker, and looking at the number on the piece of paper again, Kim Kardashian still asked uncertainly: "Will, Mr. Williams, you won't, are you kidding me?"

Eric shook his head and smiled, "Your breasts are so big, I'm afraid you won't understand the joke." ”

Kim Kardashian really couldn't understand this stalk, but her face was hot, and she said: "However, my stepfather and mother are in New York, and my mother has to take care of my two younger sisters, Kendall and Kelly are not yet three years old. ”

Eric shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's not my business, for a week, if you can't see the plan, it's over." ”

Kim Kardashian didn't dare to bargain with Eric, nodded obediently, and said, "Well, okay." ”

Because it was summer and weekend, the girls basically woke up close to noon, and after the twins got up, Eric asked them to drive him back to the girl's mansion at Strausdale Manor, and handled some work emails in the morning, and wanted to start writing the outline of "Fast and Furious" in the afternoon, but a group of girls got up and rushed over, forcing Eric to go crazy for most of the day.

Three days after the weekend, "The Lion King 2" took the top spot at the opening weekend box office of $38.9 million, while the second-place "Prison in the Sky" only grossed 24.1 million, a difference of more than $14 million.

Compared with the box office of "The Fifth Element", which was pit by Sony in May, which only had more than $22 million in the first week, the box office performance of "Prison in the Air" is obviously not so bad, but, even if you don't mention that Firefly has just broken through $600 million in North America and officially dropped off the "Titanic", but compared with "The Lion King", the box office figure of "Prison in the Air" can only be regarded as a failure.

At the same time, due to the box office performance of several overseas box office countries that opened at the same time, the box office performance also did not meet expectations, and the reputation of "Air Prison" only barely reached the passing line, box office forecasting agencies and Firefly distribution departments have significantly lowered the global box office expectations of "Air Prison" of 300 million US dollars.

Considering the next succession of super-blockbusters such as "Godzilla" and "Batman and Robin", "The Hollywood Reporter" even lowered the North American box office forecast for "Prison in the Air" to $80 million, and the global expectation is only 180 million. The Firefly Group also lowered its global box office forecast for "Prison in the Sky" to $200 million. According to this estimate, it is unlikely that "Prison in the Air" will bring profits to Firefly at the box office, and the company can only pin its profit prospects on later videotapes and peripheral distribution.

Although as long as you are a little more knowledgeable, you know that "The Lion King 2" and "Air Prison" do not have much box office competition, but "The Lion King 2" far surpasses "Air Prison" at the box office is an indisputable fact, and Paramount Pictures, which was severely suppressed in the early publicity process, is even more hyped up the "hard-won" victory of "The Lion King 2", and after the box office was released in the first weekend for three days, it can't wait to announce that it will hold a celebration banquet.

Correspondingly, since Paramount Animation's two consecutive animated films "Pocahonta" and "The Lion King 2" have achieved box office success, while Firefly did not release even a single animated film last year, the industry has also begun to question Eric's decision to sell Disney's hand-drawn animation studio, and a San Francisco newspaper even criticized Eric's move to sell Disney's hand-drawn animation studio as "Hollywood's stupidest business decision".

As a result of these arguments, the box office performance of "Finding Nemo," which will be released in two weeks' time, is even more remarkable.

The high-level executives inside Firefly have naturally watched the finished film of "Finding Nemo", but although everyone affirms the excellence of "Finding Nemo", most people are not confident that this animated movie can surpass "The Lion King 2". After all, the release date of "Finding Nemo" is sandwiched between "Godzilla" and "Batman and Robin". But even if you understand this, it is impossible to make any adjustments to the schedule at the moment, and everyone can only secretly hope that the box office of "Godzilla" and "Batman and Robin" will not explode so high, so as to leave more living space for "Finding Nemo".

Although the main actors have not yet been decided, the main creative teams of "Spider-Man" and "Iron Man" have been built. Cameron and his old partner Jon Landau are in charge of "Spider-Man", "Iron Man" is produced by Eric himself, and Marvel Studios has officially signed a directing contract with Joss Whedon.

After the weekend, Eric began to have frequent meetings with the heads of Marvel Studios and the main creators of the two teams to discuss the script, casting, and budget of the "Iron Man" and "Spider-Man" projects.

According to preliminary estimates, it will take half a year for the special effects technology development and testing of the two films.

At the same time, due to the huge scale of production, once the project changes after the official start of filming, it may bring millions of dollars to the company every day, therefore, the preliminary preparation work also needs to be repeatedly considered in all the details, this part of the preparation time will be more than half a year, or even a few more years is not impossible, the original time and space "Iron Man" has been in preparation since the nineties, and the official start of filming has been in 2007, and Cameron's "Avatar" sequel has been dragged into a lifetime series.

Eric certainly wasn't going to let the two projects drag on for so long.

"Iron Man" has preliminarily drawn up the project schedule, the film will officially start shooting in March next year, the shooting is expected to take four months, the special effects production may take eight months, if all goes well, the film will be officially completed in March 1999, the summer of that year.

As for "Spider-Man," Cameron basically overturned the script and started writing a brand new plot himself.

At the same time, Cameron recently had the idea of asking the digital field to develop a whole set of special effects software specifically for Peter Parker in order to make the footage of Peter Parker flying between the high-rise buildings of New York more realistic, which obviously took longer, and Eric only hoped that the project could start filming around the end of next year, as long as it could be released in time for the summer of 2000, everything would be fine.

While paying attention to the two projects of Marvel Studios, Eric also took the time to write the outline of "Fast and Furious" and handed it to the girl to find a screenwriter to supplement.

Historically, the franchise has been stumbling through, with the first installment being a success that looked more like an accident, and the subsequent installments that didn't do well at the box office, until the fourth, when the franchise began to break into the mainstream Hollywood blockbusters.

This time, although Eric doesn't need to take so many detours, it can't be done overnight, and the script of the first episode still roughly adopts the plot of the first part of the previous life, after all, the success after the fourth part of the series is also the result of the gradual popularity of the previous parts.

On June 6, while the first week of "The Lion King 2" and "Prison in the Sky" came out, Sony Pictures' much-anticipated "Godzilla" also opened on more than 3,300 screens in North America. (To be continued.) )
