Due to its proximity to Central Park, the 'lungs of Manhattan', and the fact that it is late at night, the surrounding air is very fresh, and there is no smog and dust in the metropolis. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Eric answered, and stopped talking, concentrating on the rare silence of the night.

As one of the most well-known supermodels in the 90s, Stephanie Seymour is accustomed to seeing countless men who are trying to get close to her, and naturally has the pride of a beautiful woman. The tepid reaction of the other party in the few encounters with Eric was almost a frustration for her.

Eric's appearance just now made Stephanie Seymour feel a strong confidence again, and she was sure in her heart that Eric was secretly following her.

Although married, Stephanie Seymour has never been a woman who settles for the ordinary, she loves the feeling of being a celebrity and enjoying life surrounded by the spotlight. She just turned thirty this year, and although this is usually the most attractive age for a woman, for models, according to the old rules, this is the age of retirement.

However, the Victoria's Secret show and the emergence of many things in recent years have changed all this.

Since Cindy Crawford, Linda Ivan Golinsta and others, who are a few years older than her, can maintain their influence in the entertainment industry for a long time by virtue of their status in the Victoria's Secret Army and the TV shows in their hands, Stephanie Seymour feels that she will definitely be able to do it.

Of course, the premise of this matter is that she must get a chance first.

Thinking of this, Stephanie Seymour felt a little hateful in her heart.

After "American Supermodel Contest" and "Flyover Pride" became popular, starting from "Lustful City" to "Desperate Housewives", which has just ended in the first season, she tried her best, but she was mercilessly rejected by the man next to her.

Now, the cat finally can't help but steal it.

Hum.

snickered a few times in his heart, seeing that Eric didn't speak, Stephanie Seymour naturally wouldn't take the initiative to speak again.

It's just that.

One minute passes, two minutes pass, five minutes pass.

Still couldn't hold back, Stephanie Seymour glanced at Eric beside her, and saw him looking at the street lamp on the road downstairs, looking like an old god, so she couldn't help but be angry, she barely resisted, and said, "Eric, don't you think this is boring?"

"No," Eric retracted his thoughts, looked at the woman beside him, after a few contacts, he naturally couldn't not understand Stephanie Seymour's thoughts, but he didn't care too much, and said with a smile: "The smell on your body is still very good, as long as there is a beautiful and fragrant woman next to me, I won't be bored." ”

Stephanie Seymour deliberately pouted and said, "Are you complimenting or teasing?"

Eric said seriously: "Normally, it should be considered a teasing, but you can understand it as appreciation." ”

Stephanie Seymour was stunned when she heard this, snorted lightly, glanced at Eric, and said, "I really don't know if you should say that you are very bold or too timid." ”

Eric narrowed his eyes, smiled playfully, and said, "Actually, I'm very bold. ”

Stephanie Seymour seemed unaware of the 'danger' and continued to tease: "Oh, then you prove it to me?"

"Okay," Eric nodded, leaning slightly sideways, and reached over with one hand.

The two of them were standing at the corner of the rooftop fence, and Eric reached out to grab the woman's waist, and somewhat roughly turned the soft body in front of him and pressed it against the fence on the other side. Stephanie Seymour didn't expect Eric to be so 'direct', and his mind was a little cloudy and he bent down with the man's strength on the left fence, and struck a somewhat ashamed pose.

A little sober, Stephanie Seymour was just about to resist, when she felt Eric come up from behind and lean into her ear, as if she was teaching an ignorant child: "Woman, when it's time to settle down, settle down." ”

"You ......"

Realizing that he had been tricked, Stephanie Seymour was ashamed and angry and was about to refute, when he felt Eric quickly dodge, and there was a crisp sound of 'pop-' on the quiet rooftop, and the stinging pain in his buttocks made Stephanie Seymour's legs weak and almost collapsed to the ground.

"Eric Williams, you bastard. ”

In the stairwell, Eric shrugged his shoulders as he listened to the somewhat angry female voice in his ear, and continued to walk down the stairs.

Back in the party hall, where a guest was sitting at the piano in the corner playing a tune for the crowd, Eric took a glass of red wine again, wrapped his arms around Giselle's waist, and walked over to Chris and Emily.

When the guest finished playing, everyone applauded in cooperation, and the atmosphere in the hall was lively again.

Chris then asked Eric, "Why did you go for so long?"

"The wind blew on the rooftop for a while," Eric explained, adding, "Also, John Mark just wanted us to speed up Yahoo's IPO process." ”

Chris nodded, not surprised, he could also guess Eric's reply to the other party, and didn't ask much, just smiled: "It seems that John is really under a lot of pressure." ”

"I'm not going to get involved," Eric said with a smile, "we just need to keep our rhythm going." ”

While the partnership between Firefly and Morgan Stanley has been very pleasant, the relationship between the two parties is nowhere near the point where Eric can change Yahoo's IPO strategy for him. Although Chris worked at Morgan Stanley, his relationship with Morgan Stanley's management is now limited to commercial cooperation.

was slapped by Eric on the rooftop, and Stephanie Seymour didn't come over to entangle him again, but looked at Eric from afar with resentment in his eyes.

The party lasted until twelve o'clock at midnight, when Eric left with Giselle.

It took two days to watch the ABC Group's new annual TV show presentation, and it was Friday.

After collecting $73.75 million in the first three days of the opening weekend, "The Day After Tomorrow" earned another $37.99 million in the next four working days.

In the end, this special effects sci-fi blockbuster reached $111.74 million at the box office in the first week, becoming the first film to break 100 million in the first week of this summer.

In comparison, the production cost of "Lethal Weapon 4", which is as high as 140 million US dollars, can only break through the 100 million US million mark at the box office in the fourth week of release, reaching 100 million US dollars, and in the face of the strong impact of "The Day After Tomorrow", the film's single-week box office has also fallen to 6.8 million US dollars, and the total box office of the film can barely be pushed to the height of 110 million US dollars in the next two weeks, which is only the first day of the box office of "The Day After Tomorrow".

In addition, "The Patriot" in the third week of release and "Truman's World" in the second week of release were also affected by "The Day After Tomorrow", and the box office fell sharply in a single week.

The two consecutive "Jedi Men" have been big hits, and the third film directed by him has directly exceeded 100 million in the first week, and Michael Bay has been in the limelight for a while.

On the other hand, Roland Emmerich, as the director of "The Patriot", is in a rather awkward position.

Everyone knows that "The Day After Tomorrow" was originally supposed to be Roland Emmerich's project, but Roland Emmerich gave up the film under the temptation of Sony's huge directorial salary, and chose to direct Sony Pictures' "Godzilla" instead.

The tepid performance of "Godzilla" directly hit Roland Emmerich's newly condensed director's 'godhead', and the current "Patriot" is even more unsatisfactory.

In three weeks after its release, the box office of "Patriot" was only $87 million, and the box office momentum was not even as good as "Lethal Weapon 4".

After being surrounded by paparazzi for many days and asking about his feelings about the box office gap between "The Patriot" and "The Day After Tomorrow", Roland Emmerich simply disappeared from the world and left Los Angeles on the pretext of vacation, no one knows where the other party went.

In the past, Roland Emmerich's pinnacle work was undoubtedly "Alone Day", and then, after the failure of "Godzilla", Roland Emmerich's performance seemed to be a little sluggish.

Many years later, he barely regrouped with "The Day After Tomorrow", but he quickly planted a big heel in "10,000 Years Before History". Even the subsequent "2012", although the global box office was good, it was mainly due to the results of doomsday marketing, and the film's reputation was not outstanding. After "2012", Roland Emmerich's work is basically saving for retirement.

Compared to Roland Emmerich, Michael Bay's commercial performance is very stable, and Eric intends to keep the other party in the Firefly system as much as possible. Therefore, although "The Day After Tomorrow" has just been released, Jerry Bruckheimer in Los Angeles has already begun to discuss the new film plan with Michael Bay.

On June 12th, a new week, followed by the release of "The Day After Tomorrow", there is a costume film called "The Mask of Zorro", Eric has never been interested in Western-style costume movies, but he knows about this movie. Because the heroine of the original film is Catherine Zeta-Jones.

In my memory, "The Mask of Zorro" seems to be a project produced by Spielberg's Amberlin Pictures, but now the film is produced by Universal Pictures.

Universal's main hit this year is "Scorpion King", and the schedule is July 17. "Zorro's Mask" was placed in mid-June, which seems to be more popular than "The Scorpion King", but in fact, "Zorro's Mask" was added between "The Day After Tomorrow" and "The Matrix 2", which is very embarrassing.

However, due to the change in history, the production cost of this film is only 40 million US dollars, and Universal placed it between "The Day After Tomorrow" and "The Matrix", obviously also trying his luck, in case these two blockbusters do not perform well, "Zorro's Mask" can 'pick up the leak'.

Obviously, just judging from the box office performance of "The Day After Tomorrow", this situation did not happen, and judging from the level of expectations of fans, the probability of "The Matrix 2" failing is also low.

The main reason why Eric paid attention to these is because he casually pushed Catherine Zeta-Jones to the heroine position of the film again.
