Although everyone in the screening room, including Aniston, who was not involved in the filming, knew exactly what was going on, as the plot progressed, especially as Kevin was in the process of praising the two stupid thieves, the laughter in the screening room burst into bursts, and even an old man in his fifties like Jeffrey Hansen couldn't help but laugh.

The one-hour and forty-minute film ends imperceptibly, and when the last line of subtitles is finished, everyone stands up and applauds together.

"I have to say, this movie is so good, Eric, and I think I should congratulate you in advance. Jeffrey Hansen patted Eric on the shoulder and said seriously.

"Thank you, Jeffrey, and, thank you, without your help, I wouldn't have been able to do it in just half a month. ”

Everyone greeted each other for a while, and gradually dispersed, after all, everyone still has their own affairs. They were going to have a small celebration party, but unfortunately seeing Eric's unshaven beard and tired face, they all consciously gave up this idea, Eric has exhausted too much energy in the past half a month, and everyone knows that he needs to rest.

The next thing is to contact the release of the film, just tomorrow is the test meeting, Eric feels that this may be an opportunity to sell to Twentieth Century Fox for distribution, he believes that as long as the Twentieth Century Fox executives see this film, they will definitely agree to their distribution plan, even if they finally give up some shares, after all, he has no foundation yet.

Maybe wait for the sale, but by then the New Year must have passed, as a Christmas comedy, it is definitely not a good choice to release it at other times, it can't wait until next year, so much effort has been put in, and seeing that the success of the plan is close at hand, he doesn't want to delay it for a year.

Aniston, who only had a temporary driver's license, drove back to Eric's house in Eric's car, and Eric put away the copy of the film, explained to Aniston, and threw himself into bed, never to open his eyes again.

Aniston originally wanted Eric to take a shower and go to sleep, but seeing that Eric had fallen into a deep sleep and still had an obviously tired look on his face, he could only sigh softly in distress, take off his clothes and shoes, cover Eric with a blanket, and turn to leave the bedroom.

Eric's house was already dusty because it hadn't been cleaned for more than half a month, so Aniston pulled up her cuffs and found tools to start cleaning up. Rachel is a pampered girl who doesn't know how to do laundry when the washing machine is in front of her, but in reality, Aniston has long been self-reliant.

On the desk in the study, Aniston picked up a thick book and wiped the dust on the table with a rag, when suddenly a piece of text slipped out of the book in his hand. Curious, Aniston picks up Wen Jiàn and discovers that it is a house pawn agreement.

……

I don't know how long it was, but at noon it seemed like Aniston was asking if he wanted to eat, but Eric groggily refused, and then fell asleep again, waking up to the dark in his bedroom.

Reaching out and expertly touching the bedside lamp, Eric looked at his watch after turning it on, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

Anne must have left, Eric thought, getting dressed and walking out of the bedroom, faintly hearing the sound of the TV playing in the living room.

Walking down the stairs, I saw Aniston curled up on the sofa and watching a TV series with a pillow in her arms.

"Hi Annie, good evening. Eric walked over and kissed Aniston on the cheek.

"You're awake, Eric, go take a shower, I'll make you something to eat. ”

Eric didn't notice the strangeness on Aniston's face, he turned around and walked to the bathroom, and after spending half an hour taking a shower and shaving his beard, Eric walked out of the bathroom, and Aniston was back on the couch with a prepared dinner in front of him.

"Oh, Annie, I'm amazed that you can make Chinese egg fried rice, well, it's delicious. Eric took a bite and complimented.

"You said you liked it, and I learned it on purpose. Aniston looked at the gobbling up Eric with a smile on her face, and patiently waited for Eric to finish before she spoke, "Eric, are you ...... Did you mortgage the house?"

Eric was about to send the dishes back to the kitchen, when he heard Aniston's words, he looked up in confusion, he hadn't told anyone about it, how did Aniston know?

"I was cleaning your room when I saw this one fall out of a book. Facing Eric's puzzled gaze, Aniston took out the pawn paper from under the coffee table.

Eric had no choice but to put down the tableware, took the document and glanced at it, nodded and said, "The shooting fund is still 200,000 yuan, so I had to mortgage the house." ”

"Well, the piano in the study is ...... too" Aniston had been to Eric's house a few times before and liked the Strauss piano very much.

Eric nodded again.

Aniston frowned a little distressedly: "Eric, I think you are too impulsive, although everyone at today's screening thinks it is good, but if it fails, you may go bankrupt at any time." ”

Eric got up and sat down next to Aniston, took Aniston in his arms and said, "Don't worry, Annie. You see, a few months ago, I was just a penniless high school student, and now in just a few months, I've managed to publish myself, write a screenplay and lead actor, and now I've made a movie. How many people at my age can do this? So, even if I fail, I believe that with my strength, I can easily get back on my feet again. We are all still so young, of course, we have to fight hard with all our strength a few times, whether we succeed or fail, at least we have cried and laughed. Otherwise, what a pity it would be to wait until you are old, gray-haired, and reminiscing about your life, dull and undisturbed, as if there is not even a thin meteorite in the sky that has not drawn a ray of light. ”

"Oh, Eric, you're so ...... when you say that It's fascinating, I think you're just seducing me, you scoundrel. Aniston couldn't help but raise her face and kiss Eric on the lips.

Eric wrapped his arms around Aniston's waist and kissed them passionately

Aniston felt the presumptuousness of Eric's hands, and instead of stopping it like in the car last time, she hugged Eric's waist tightly, her pretty face was crimson, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

……

The morning sun hit her face, Aniston's eyelashes trembled, and she subconsciously turned over to avoid the disturbing light, but this inadvertent action pulled a wound somewhere, and the girl instantly opened her eyes in pain. Confused for a few seconds, Aniston quickly remembered what happened last night, her face was slightly red at the same time, and she remembered with some hatred that she had tossed herself so badly, but she just turned her head to look for it, and found that she was the only one left on the bed, which made Aniston a little sad, what girl doesn't want to wake up in the arms of her considerate boyfriend.

Some of the grievances had just begun to ferment, and Eric walked into the bedroom with a dinner plate, saw Aniston, who had woken up, and said with a smile: "Hi baby, good morning." ”

Aniston pouted and said, "It's not good at all, you bastard." ”

"Well, I apologize, and to show my apologies, I spent an hour making you a delicious pork rib soup. ”

"No, I'm still losing weight. ”

"Today's situation is special, so forget about weight loss for the time being, come, how about tasting it?"

"Hmm, I haven't brushed my teeth yet?"

Eric put the tray on the bedside table, directly lifted the quilt and picked up Aniston: "Her Royal Highness the princess must have difficulty moving, I'll carry you." ”

"Nasty," Aniston snorted, wearing only a pair of Eric's wide shirts, and obediently let Eric pick him up from the bed.

After the warm breakfast, because of the difficulty of mobility, Aniston can only ask the convenience store owner for leave again, for this kind of thing, the convenience store owner seems to have become accustomed to it, many young people who work in Los Angeles with star dreams will take leave from time to time to try their luck with some crews, and the convenience store owner also knows that Aniston is one of them, so the two parties have reached an understanding when Aniston accepts the job.

The two of them got tired of it for a while, Eric had to drive away from home, and today happened to be a test film, and he wanted to try to see if he could get the release by the way.

At around 10 o'clock in the morning, dozens of people, including representatives of the distribution department, publicity department and film dealers, gathered in the luxurious screening room of Twentieth Century Fox, producer James Brooks, director Penny Marshall, and some other unannounced leading actors also came to the scene.

Before the movie shows, Eric approaches James Brooks and Penny Marshall, asking them to help introduce them to the head of distribution at Twentieth Century Fox.

"Eric, you mean, you want your low-budget movie to be released for Christmas?" James Brooks was a little surprised, and he also knew that Eric had made his own movie after it was finished, but he didn't expect it to be completed so quickly.

"Yes, James, it's a fun Christmas comedy, so it's better to be on Christmas than the other time. ”

James Brooks was a little dismissive in his heart, although the boy had surprised him many times since he met Eric, but he definitely didn't believe that Eric, a newcomer, could make any interesting comedy movies, Eric as a screenwriter and actor, can also be said to be talented, but if the director can play without talent, it takes years of experience. However, for the sake of face, he still agreed to help introduce him.
