Chapter 736 is not violence
The filming of "The Pride of the Flyover" was carried out in the evening, and several contestants completed the theme of this competition, casual swimsuits.
At this time, the models have already put their creations on their bodies, and although it is already the end of the day, the work is not over yet, because in the evening the designers will bring their models and creations to a fashion party to show their work to the famous fashion columnist of a daily newspaper owned by the Hearst Group, who will also be the guest judge of the theme.
Elizabeth Hurley spent the afternoon beside Eric, watching the film crew pack up their equipment and prepare to move positions, and said, "Eric, I can sense that you are a little unhappy with their work, but why don't you point them out?"
Eric could feel that his presence had made many of the crew tremble, and if he interfered in the production, it would definitely make them even more confused, which was the main reason why he remained a spectator all afternoon.
Moreover, most of the details were within his tolerance, and even if they had to be adjusted, they could be discussed privately by Linda in person, and when Elizabeth Hurley asked, Eric casually explained: "No one can do a perfect thing, and some small mistakes are inevitable." ”
Saying this, Linda Ivangelinsta walked over with the director of the crew and said, "Eric, the crew is going to the park in New York next, and I will also be present at the evening party to shoot some shots, do you want to come along?"
Eric wasn't interested in parties, let alone this kind of small party that was temporarily organized for the filming of the show, and shook his head: "That's it." I'm going to go back early to rest. He said. He looked at Elizabeth Hurley beside him and said, "Liz, you must be interested in these, let's go play with Linda at night." ”
Elizabeth Hurley sensitively realized the opportunity and affectionately grabbed Eric's arm: "Eric, I actually don't like parties very much, it's too noisy." ”
Linda looked at Elizabeth Hurley, who looked familiar, and pursed the corners of her lips slightly. said a few words to the director next to him, and said to Eric: "If you don't want to go, forget it, filming starts at eight o'clock, then let's go to dinner first." ”
After finding a restaurant nearby, after dinner, Linda looked at Elizabeth Hurley, who was wrapped around Eric and had no intention of leaving, and secretly complained to Cindy in her heart, and reluctantly rushed to work.
It's past half past seven o'clock in the evening, and the bustling city of Manhattan is in full bloom.
Eric personally sends Linda to the filming location of tonight's party to kiss the girl softly goodbye. Back in the car, I looked at Elizabeth Hurley, who was leaning lazily on the leather seat. With an indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth, he said, "Liz, where do you live, I'll send you back?"
Seeing that Linda had left, Elizabeth Hurley ignored the driver in front of her, and boldly leaned forward, and the just right perfume instantly surrounded Eric: "Eric, can't I go to your place for a cup of coffee?"
"Let's go to the apartment on Sixth Avenue. ”
Eric gave an order to the driver in the front seat, raised the baffle with the cab, reached out and pushed away the woman who seemed to be weak and boneless on his body, looked at the flawless face and the curvy Miaoman body, his eyes narrowed, he smiled a little badly, and said half-truthfully: "Liz, I'll take a precaution with you in advance, I'm very violent." ”
Elizabeth Hurley was glared at by Eric's undisguised gaze, only to feel as if tens of thousands of ants had crawled over her body, shivered slightly, and was a little wandering, suddenly remembering Linda and Cindy, and suddenly realized that Eric should be joking, after all, if Eric was really as he said, Cindy and Linda would definitely not be so close to him.
The more I thought about it, the more relieved I became, and the scruples in my heart quickly dissipated, and Elizabeth Hurley added the corners of her lower lip wildly, with a bit of a counterattack: "Eric, I'm also very violent." ”
"Oh, I'm looking forward to it," Eric said with a smile on his face that flashed with surprise.
The two came to Eric's mansion on Sixth Avenue near the exit of Central Park, Elizabeth Hurley was also shocked by the duplex mansion that occupies the top two floors of the building and also has a rooftop garden.
Looking out through the glass curtain wall, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, and the whole Manhattan was brightly lit, because it was the height of summer, the days were long, the sky in the distance was still glowing white, and she stepped barefoot on the slightly cool floor, Elizabeth Hurley leisurely walked around the living room.
Eric didn't have the interest she had, sat down on the sofa, picked up the apple in the fruit bowl on the coffee table in front of him, picked up the fruit knife next to him, peeled the fruit casually, and said casually to the girls floating around: "Make it yourself what you want to drink." ”
Elizabeth Hurley answered, walked to the wine cabinet in the corner, opened it and took out a bottle of red wine at random and looked at it, Romani Conti in 1972, raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head to look at the man sitting idly on the sofa, his expression moved slightly, and then smiled self-deprecatingly at what he had just thought, to be honest, she almost wanted to take this bottle of wine away quietly, and it was at least tens of thousands of dollars to change hands.
Picking up the bottle of red wine and raising it at Eric, Elizabeth Hurley said, "Eric, is this okay?"
The apartment in New York was completely set up by Drew for Eric, and Xiao Nizi took the trouble to introduce him to the wine cabinet in the wine cabinet, and several bottles were sold at auction for a high price. It's just that he lives very little here, and he is not too interested in red wine, and Drew has forgotten what he said at the beginning, and when he heard Elizabeth Hurley's words, he glanced at it casually and nodded: "If you like it, open it." ”
Elizabeth Hurley looked around when she heard this, found the corkscrew, and after a while, with the soft sound of the cork, she gently added the corners of her lower lip, and couldn't help but think about how much she would drink in one sip, two thousand dollars. Or $3,000?
Find the goblet. Poured two glasses shallowly. Elizabeth Hurley didn't rush to Eric, walked to the record player next to her, carefully selected a jazz album, put it in the machine and turned it on, soft jazz music suddenly sounded in the living room, and ran to turn off the ceiling light in the living room, leaving only a pale yellow wall lamp, and she picked up a small tray. Come to Eric's side.
Placing the tray on the coffee table, Elizabeth Hurley's gray-green eyes shone brightly, snatched the apple and fruit knife in Eric's hand and threw it aside, handed Eric a goblet, picked up another cup himself, but sat on the coffee table in front of him, and the wild super Eric raised it: "Cheers!"
Eric smiled and took a sip, the wine was slightly sour, and the taste was mellow and long.
Eric held the goblet and looked at the gorgeous girl who was rubbing her toes on her legs: "Has anyone said that?" What color is it best for you?"
"No, I prefer casual clothes. But, Eric, what color do you think it should be?"
"Red, warm, wild, blooming. There are very few women who are suitable for the red one, but you are definitely one of them. ”
Elizabeth Hurley looked at Eric with a charming look and said, "That's a compliment." ”
"Of course," Eric nodded.
Elizabeth Hurley pretended to regret and said, "I have a red dress, but unfortunately I can't show you it right away." ”
"It's okay, there are still many opportunities. ”
"Yes, there are plenty of opportunities," said Elizabeth Hurley, who drank the wine in one gulp, tossed the goblet aside, leaned back slightly, propped up the coffee table with both hands, and said, "But, Eric, time is running out for today?"
"Oh, it's only eight o'clock, I can't imagine you'll have so much confidence in me. ”
Elizabeth Hurley, of course, could hear Eric's pun, smiled and said, "I'll wait and see what someone is saying in the car." ”
"I'm reminded of the contestants in "The Pride of the Flyover" this afternoon, and to be honest, I also had the idea of being a fashion designer when I was a child. ”
"Oh," Elizabeth Hurley replied inexplicably.
Immediately, she saw Eric get up, pick up the fruit knife she had just thrown beside her, and then leaned over and pushed her to lie on the coffee table.
Elizabeth Hurley felt nervous in her heart and asked in a trembling voice, "Ai...... Eric, what do you do?"
Eric smiled and pressed her waist, "Don't move, baby, I'd like to study the structure of this garment." ”
As she said this, Elizabeth Hurley felt the cold blade against the neckline of her black gown, and the slight cracking of the silk fabric was heard.
Looking at the focused expression of the man above her body, Elizabeth Hurley was a little relieved, confirming that he would not cut himself, but soon felt a little pity for his dress, and complained: "Eric, I have damaged this dress, what will I wear tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow's business, tomorrow's talk. ”
"Okay," Elizabeth Hurley felt a thrill in her heart as she felt the cold blade slide down her chest and her gown cut in the middle, but she said not to be outdone, "Eric, I don't think you're violent, you're becoming too much." ”
"Oh, maybe. ”
Eric's 'knife skills' were clearly good, and the black dress quickly turned into a square piece of fabric, and the perfect neodymium body was spread out like a special sacrifice on a coffee table covered with a black tablecloth.
With the woman's soft groan, Eric played with the perfect artifact from the Creator, then picked up the red wine on the tray next to him and poured it on.
……
With the morning sun shining warmly, Eric sat on the rooftop in the open-air garden, reading today's newspaper and eating breakfast slowly.
Today is Wednesday, July 19th.
It's been six days since last week's release of two new films, "Night at the Museum" and "Evaporation Secret", and although we haven't seen detailed data yet, most of the media has been stimulated by the box office of "Night at the Museum".
Under the pressure of a number of new and old films, "Wonderful Night at the Museum" was released for three days, and it still got a box office of nearly $60 million, and it is expected that the box office will even exceed $80 million in the first week, or even reach 90 million.
And the production cost of this film is only 70 million US dollars. The Arnold Schwarzenegger action blockbuster "Evaporation Secret", which was released at the same time, actually cost $100 million to produce, but the film's first weekend box office was only more than 25 million, less than half of "Wonderful Night at the Museum".
At this time, most of the media once again remembered Eric's initiative last year to advocate reducing the salary of celebrities and reducing the cost of production.
No doubt has not forgotten that at that time, other film companies maintained an ambiguous attitude that neither supported nor opposed, and it was Time Warner who first broke the deadlock, compromised with a group of big-name stars, and in order to express some of its determination, signed several ultra-high-budget films such as "Future Water World", "Evaporation Order", and "The Line of Fire" in one go.
At this time, the production cost of "Future Water World" of $175 million and the dismal box office results of less than $40 million so far have caused Time Warner's stock price to fall by more than a dozen percentage points recently. Although strictly speaking, the box office of "Evaporation Secret" is not a failure, at least it is much better than the previous "Fair Game", but compared with any film in the summer file of the Firefly system, especially "Wonderful Night at the Museum" in the same period, the box office of "Evaporation Secret" can only be described as dismal.
On Friday, Time Warner's last film this summer, "The Line of Fire", also cost $90 million, and will also be played against MGM's "007: GoldenEye", which is already about to belong to the Firefly system.
As early as last year, this 007 easter egg had already appeared at the end of "Breaking Baby", so it made a lot of noise. Fans can be said to have been looking forward to it for a whole year, and it is rumored that this year's "007: Golden Eye" will also have an easter egg of "Breaking Badgy 2" at the end of the film, which directly makes fans of the two series of 007 and "Breaking Bad" boiling.
It is conceivable that in the face of this much-anticipated blockbuster, "The Line of Fire", which is three hours long, has no competitiveness at all.
At this time, apart from the undisguised ridicule, not many people in the media have paid attention to Time Warner, which is doomed to fail at the box office this year, and many people's eyes are focused on Flower Pictures, which is in the final stage of acquisition negotiations with MGM.
Anyone knows that Firefly stands behind Flower Pictures, and once Flower Pictures completes the acquisition of MGM, it is almost equivalent to that Firefly will completely own two-sevenths of Hollywood's 'territory' and maintain its influence on Fox at the same time, as for Sony Columbia, no one thinks that this Japanese-owned film company can get rid of the shadow of Firefly.
