Chapter 393: Don't Do This

After taking two slow sips of some warm coffee, Eric said: "This share is absolutely not for you, I only spent $150 million a year ago to acquire the new line, and now Robert Shea has offered me 500 million, I don't want this situation to happen again." ”

Elizabeth analyzed clearly: "You can fool the layman, don't say that 500 million is impossible, even if you really take out 500 million in the end, you won't lose at all." A year ago, Firefly was like a cripple with only one leg, even if he had the rights to a few popular movies, but there were no distribution channels, and it was worth five or six billion dollars at most, and he could be cut off at any time and fall into a desperate situation. But after the integration of the new line, Firefly only took one year to develop into a junior studio, although the valuation of 2 billion is a bit false, but 1.5 billion must still be there, you are equivalent to a year of net worth increased by 1 billion, if there is no new line, under the constraints of the Seven Majors, you may not be able to do this kind of process in ten years. ”

"Well, the analysis makes sense, you can go back and write a paper. ”

"I've already graduated, and I'm getting all A's!" Elizabeth just raised her chin to give a little snort, but quickly said, "You're changing the subject again, we're talking about Robert Shea's shares." ”

"I also gave you an answer, absolutely not, this is not in line with my development plan for fireflies. ”

Elizabeth leaned over to Eric's sofa and squatted down, pulled the man's arm and shook it, and said in a very rare coquettish tone: "Let's discuss it again~~"

Eric hurriedly withdrew his hand: "Don't look like this, it's too scary." ”

Elizabeth, who finally mustered up the courage to make a little woman gesture, was hit badly. I almost wanted to pull Eric's arm over and bite it twice.

"Alright. This matter is non-negotiable. But you can rest assured that Firefly will definitely maintain a good relationship with Fox all the time. ”

Elizabeth pouted dissatisfiedly: "No matter how it sounds, it sounds like an excuse to deal with people." ”

Eric reached out and pinched the girl's chin: "Of course not, you are my woman, of course I will be towards you, Fox's business is my business." ”

Elizabeth pulled Eric's claws away, "Do you think I'll believe your nonsense when a bastard who was just drawing naked women said that?"

Having said this, Elizabeth had an irrepressible flush on her face.

If she knew Eric's true thoughts, she would probably pick up the coffee pot on the round table next to her and pour it on Eric's head.

Whether it's in memory or what you can see now. Murdoch's two sons were very unconventional fellows, standard dumb boys. But Murdoch is obviously also the kind of person who is patriarchal, although Elizabeth is the most capable of several children, but in memory Murdoch insisted on handing over News Corp to his second son.

Now that Eric came into this world and accidentally got in touch with Elizabeth, of course he couldn't let this happen again, Murdoch is now sixty years old, and it won't take ten years to think about the succession, and Eric's plan is, of course, to fully support Elizabeth in controlling News Corp.

Mine, is mine. My woman's is mine.

If not for this ultimate goal. Why did he meddle in TG's petty company, and in order to make "The Silence of the Lambs" win the Oscar, he was busy cutting off "Dances with Wolves", all in order to increase Elizabeth's influence in the Murdoch family.

Thinking so in his heart, Eric couldn't help but look at the chick who was still crouching next to him.

You're going to have to be a little more aggressive, don't let me down.

The girl's gaze met his, dodged slightly, and reached out and gently hammered on Eric's shoulder: "What bad idea are you fighting again?"

"Speaking of which, what do you still owe me, why don't you settle the account now? I'm in a good mood right now, and I can give you a 20% discount. ”

Elizabeth subconsciously wanted to cover her buttocks, so her arm moved suddenly, but she quickly stopped and glared at Eric fiercely: "Don't even think about it, I will never let you spank me again." ”

Eric just made a joke, looked at the wary little girl, and found a proper topic and asked: "How is the public relations of "The Silence of the Lambs" doing, I asked the Weinstein brothers of Miramax to assist in public relations, you should not have forgotten it, right?"

For some reason, Elizabeth felt a nice posture leaning against Eric, with a little warmth. She pulled out a cushion from Eric's back and put it under her knees, and lay on the armrest of the sofa on Eric's left hand side before saying: "I gave them $1 million to lobby for funding, and I was doing it myself during this time, and my dad transferred a director of Oscar public relations from Fox's publicity department to help me, and these days I am almost every day with Judy and Jonathan who are participating in lobbying." ”

"One more thing, about Best Picture, don't put Drew's name on it, and cross out Julia. ”

Elizabeth nodded and said, "Of course I know that if we report both of them, then the old men of the Oscar judges will definitely not vote for us if they think that "The Silence of the Lambs" is eligible to win the award." And I decided to put Jonathan Demi and me together for Best Picture, so that I have a better chance of winning. ”

"A smart choice, and this can be regarded as giving the Oscar jury enough steps. If you are just a woman, the chances of winning the award will be greatly reduced, and female discrimination is already a deep-rooted thing, and it will not be changed in another hundred years. The Oscars are actually like this, you give it face, it gives you awards, everyone wins, and then everyone is happy. ”

Elizabeth pulled Eric over one of his arms and put it under his chin, and looked up at Eric: "What about you, when are you going to come back with a golden man for the best director?"

Eric shrugged his shoulders and said confidently, "With my current fame in Hollywood, it doesn't matter if I have the blessing of a golden man or not. ”

"I'm really arrogant, look at your movies, all of them are commercial films, and there is no possibility of winning a golden man at all. You're the kind of fox who can't eat grapes. ”

Thinking about his special effects film plans in the next few years, the chances of winning the Oscar are even more slim, but if Eric is given the choice, he will definitely not give up his original plan and make any Olympic films. (To be continued......)
