Sensing a faint sense that someone was staring at her, Christina Aguilera opened her eyes just in time to notice Eric sitting on the edge of the bed with a smile on his face.

All kinds of pictures from last night quickly came to mind, feeling the unhindered contact between the thin quilt and the big bed, Christina pulled the corners of the quilt with a slightly red face, and whispered: "Morning, Eric." ”

"Seeing that you slept so soundly, I don't know if I should wake you up," Eric reached over and gently brushed away the strands of hair on the girl's cheeks, looking at her expression with a little nervousness, and asked, "Are you still uncomfortable?" ”

"Well, it feels like something......" Christina's eyelashes drooped, a little embarrassed halfway through her words.

"Then rest here for a few days, your place is definitely not as good as here, I ordered breakfast for you, when to get up, call customer service, they will send it, you can also call my assistant if you need anything else," Eric said, placing a small card on the bedside table: "This is his number." ”

Christina looked at Eric with some loss and said, "Are you going to work?" ”

"yes, it's eight o'clock, and hundreds of people are waiting for me."

Christina nodded and said obediently, "Well, then, goodbye." ”

"Goodbye," Eric leaned over and kissed the girl on the cheek, and Christina boldly raised her little head and kissed it back, and naughtily stuck out the tip of her tongue and licked Eric's face.

Eric didn't mind either, and smiled, "What a kitten." ”

Christina grinned and said, "Eric, you seem to like cats." ”

"No, I don't like cats, I like cat-like women, docile, lazy, mysterious, and of course, occasionally wild and untamable."

Christina's eyes blinked quickly and said, "Then I'll be your kitten, okay?" ”

"No problem," Eric smiled, pinched Christina's cheek, stood up and said, "Then I'm going to work, well, when I have a break this week, I'll take you to play, where do you want to go?" ”

Christina had an excited look on her face, but then said, "I'm not familiar with Venice, I'll go wherever you go, Eric." ”

"This can't be done, the Venice Film Festival is about to start, and we are filming here again, so there are too many reporters in Venice recently, and playing in Venice will definitely be surrounded and blocked, we have to run a little farther, how about Paris?"

Christina's little brain didn't turn around, of course she wanted to go to Paris, and what girl didn't yearn for Paris, but the crew only had one day off a week, could they run that far?

Eric guessed the girl's thoughts from Christina's confused little expression, pinched her face, and said with a smile: "That's Paris, I'll go to work first, you can go to sleep, you can get up whenever you want." ”

Waving his hand at Eric, seeing the man's figure disappear, he waited patiently for a while, and finally heard a slight sound of the door closing in the living room.

After lying in bed for a while, Christina got up, but first called her assistant Miria, and vaguely explained that she stayed in the hotel where Eric was last night, and did not make it clear, she believed that the female assistant also knew it, and told the other party to be free to do so these days, Christina hung up the phone, and dialed the room service to ask for breakfast, to fill her stomach, and the girl fell into the big bed again, and quickly fell asleep.

When I woke up again, it was already evening, and there was almost no light outside the thick curtains.

There was a faint voice in the living room, and Christina got dressed lightly, walked to the door and opened the door, only to find that Eric was alone on the phone in the living room, and then came out.

Eric saw Christina walk out of the bedroom, nodded at her, and gestured to the couch across from him.

Christina walked over and sat down on the sofa, she was only wearing a small close-fitting T-shirt and jeans, barefoot, although the floor in the room was very clean, there was no carpet, and the floor felt a little cold, so Christina shrunk her calves, curled up on the sofa with a pillow, and listened to Eric on the phone quietly.

"If that's the case, the price of $300 million, we can accept it," Eric held the phone in one hand, looked at the blue folder on his lap, and discussed something with the other side: "However, we can't compromise on the payment terms, and if Amberlin wants the rights to The Matrix, then he must pay in full as soon as possible after signing the contract." It's only $300 million, and Jeffrey, with the strength of Microsoft behind Amberlin, as long as they really want to make this deal, they will definitely be able to get it. ”

Christina stuck out her tongue when she heard Eric's understatement of $300 million, she also knew that Firefly was selling the rights to the sequel to "The Matrix", but she didn't expect the copyright of this movie to be so valuable, $300 million.

Eric happened to notice the small gesture of Christina's tongue sticking out, and thought the girl was being naughty, and waved his hand at her, signaling that he was not to be funny.

Christina craned her neck and smiled at Eric.

"There's one more thing," Eric and Katzenberg finished talking about "The Matrix", and continued: "I've already seen the finished film of "Titanic", except for the ending song, there is nothing else, Jim has flown back to Los Angeles in the morning to get the new ending song, the song was written by me personally, you let the record department cooperate with it, try to get it done before the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival, and also, the publicity and distribution work can start now, and I don't plan to compress the finished film, so, You let the distribution department discuss the corresponding publicity plan. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Jedi Men 2," Eric hesitated, thought for a while, and said: "It's better not to be at the same time as "Titanic", I know you don't have much confidence in this film, and we have no right to interfere with other companies' plans, but Fireflies can't snipe themselves, so let's postpone it, put it in the summer next year, and this sequel should also have the strength to support it...... Well, that's it. ”

Hanging up the phone, seeing Christina listening with her little ear sideways, Eric smiled and beckoned to her.

Christina got up with the pillow and sat down next to Eric, curled up her legs and leaned lightly on Eric, looked at the papers on his knees, and said, "Eric, what is this?" ”

Eric knew that the girl wasn't really interested, but just wanted to find a topic, and said, "Nothing, some information on the copyright transfer contract." ”

Christina glanced at the document a few times, but didn't look at it carefully, and asked, "Is it The Matrix?" ”

"Yes," Eric nodded, turning the information on the folder back to the first page, intending to read it again, when he felt Christina's small body next to him rub twice against him from time to time, and smiled, "Look at the way you just looked, it should be okay, right?" ”

"Ah," Christina was stunned, and soon begged for mercy pitifully, "That, Eric, tonight, is ...... No, I can't.

Eric smiled, his eyes still falling on the document in front of him, but changed the subject, "What do you want to eat at night?" ”

Christina was still worried about whether Eric would toss herself again at night, in which case she felt that she might be going to break. Hearing Eric change the subject, he replied absentmindedly, "I don't know, morning, well, it's not bad." ”

"That's breakfast," Eric said, "Forget it, you call room service and ask them to bring you a menu and pick what you want to eat." ”

"Hmm," Christina nodded, thought for a moment, and gently tugged at the short sleeves of Eric's T-shirt, looking like she wanted to say something.

Eric turned his head and saw Christina's pitiful little expression, remembered what she had just said, and understood.

I have to say that the current Christina can be said to be the best period of her life, with a sweet face, petite stature, and a slender figure, coupled with a pitiful little expression of 'don't bully others' at this time, it is indeed very capable of provoking the ravages of men.

"Don't think about it, just rest well these days," Eric smiled, reached out and pinched the girl's face, "If you don't want to stay here, you can go back to the hotel facing the street." ”

Hearing this, and remembering Eric's generally gentle behavior last night, Christina also relieved her heart and smiled sweetly: "I'm not leaving, well, I'm going to call and ask for the menu." ”

As she spoke, the girl jumped off the couch and reached for the mobile phone that Eric had just put down, and began dialing.

Eric smiled, turning his attention back to the file in his hand again.

Because of his distance from Hollywood, Eric has not personally felt the various stirring in Hollywood in recent times, especially the sale of the rights to "The Matrix".

There is no doubt that, as Eric guessed at the beginning, the one who wants the copyright of "The Matrix" the most is Amberlin Pictures, which is backed by Microsoft, and of course, several other major film companies are also more or less involved in this copyright competition.

……
