"Well, look at the way you look forward to it......" Elizabeth looked at Eric sitting in the audience, and plucked up the courage to say, "Finally, I want to thank Eric Williams, but this guy really didn't do anything, but it seems that everyone thinks they should thank him, so I have to go with the flow." ”

Seeing the girl's appearance of wanting to cover up, there was a sudden sound of coaxing in the audience, and Elizabeth's face became more ruddy.

Because the ceremony is almost over here, the final process has entered the time of free play.

The host, Billy Christo, walked up to the stage again, walked up to the girl who had already fled because of the crowd in the audience, and joked: "Come, Miss Murdoch, see how hard you are holding the little golden man, let me help you." ”

As he spoke, Christo supported Elizabeth, helped hold the little golden figure in the girl's hand with one hand, and then took two steps forward and said into the microphone: "Okay, those executives of Hollywood studios have just found out with tears in their eyes that a certain guy is finally no longer crazy about making movies." So, let's forget Eric Williams, tonight's glory is destined to belong to The Silence of the Lambs. ”

In the last laughter, this year's Oscars finally came to an end.

"Ghost Love" only won a few small awards, so Firefly did not plan to hold a celebration banquet. Anyway, after the Oscars, as long as you still have the energy, you can always find all kinds of factions to participate, and Eric directly announced the disbandment of everyone. "The Silence of the Lambs" was held in a mansion of the Murdoch family in Beverly Hills, rather than a hotel.

Eric had just gotten into his car when he saw a petite figure follow in. Hugged Eric for a while and kissed him: "Eric." Little Golden Man. Where's the little golden man?"

Drew didn't show up at the ceremony this time, but the girl was waiting outside. Eric tore the girl who was glued to him and said with a smile: "How can I have a little golden man, they are all with Liz, they are still being interviewed later." ”

When Drew heard this, he jumped out of the car. Eric ignored the crazy girl and beckoned to Nicole who was not far away, and the girl came over. Got into the car.

Eric motioned for the driver to go to the Beverly Hills "The Silence of the Lambs" celebration location, and then raised the baffle with the cab, and the car slowly started.

Nicole's mood at this time is extremely complicated, the Oscars are just a lively and hilarious Hollywood event for the audience, but for the stars who attended the awards ceremony in person, no one will be willing to be a spectator anymore after seeing others on the podium one by one to enjoy victory and glory.

After the car drove smoothly, Eric looked at Nicole's expression beside him and suddenly asked, "Are you envious?"

Nicole nodded honestly: "Just wondering when I'm going to get the Oscar." ”

Eric reached over. Stroking the girl's delicate and beautiful face, her fingertips slid all the way to the girl's slender neck. before taking it back. Nicole felt Eric's gentle touch, bursts of small electric currents all over her body, and thought that he suddenly wanted to do something in the car, but when she saw him suddenly withdraw her hand, she looked at Eric suspiciously.

Eric seemed to be able to feel the slippery feeling on his fingertips, and said with a smile: "You are so beautiful, Oscar has always been prejudiced against beautiful women." ”

Nicole reached out and put her arm around Eric and leaned against him, and said with some flattery, "You can't do it too?"

Eric reached out and grabbed the girl, feeling the soft touch of Nicole's slender waist through the silk dress, and said, "Of course you can, but do you really want to win the Oscar?"

Nicole said, "I don't believe there's any actress in Hollywood who wouldn't want to?"

"If you want an Oscar, it's not impossible," seeing Nicole's eyes shining, Eric continued: "But you need two to three years to devote yourself to it, during which you may not be able to juggle commercial films, so there is a big risk in this, and in the end, you may not get the Oscar, and your personal value will shrink because of too much focus on literary films." ”

Although the Oscars are very attractive, Nicole will never give up her development in commercial films for the sake of the Oscars, hearing Eric say this, Nicole was a little skeptical: "It shouldn't be like this, right?"

Eric explains: "Of course it will be true for you, first of all, you have to choose an art film script that is worthy of the Oscar, and you have to make sure that you can produce a great film that meets the taste of the Oscar judges. After testing and other measures to make sure that the film is good enough, it is a long process of warm-up and promotion, which usually takes several months, so you have to spend more energy than just shooting the movie, you also need to participate in various PR campaigns yourself. After brushing enough attention on various pre-film awards, it is a public relations specifically for the Oscars, and after this complete set of processes, it may be possible to be nominated for the Oscars. But with factors such as your seniority, age, and appearance, it's impossible to get an award for the first time, so you'll have to go through this process at least two or three times, and even then, if you want to win an Oscar, you need to pray that you won't meet a strong enough opponent. ”

Although Nicole believed Eric's words a little, she still asked: "Although what you said is very reasonable, but looking back at these Oscars, it seems that this situation has not happened as you said, this year's Judie Foster, last year's ...... It seems to be the old lady, and counting back the years, those winners don't seem to follow the process you said to rush for the prize, right?"

Eric laughed: "These are two completely different things, what I just said is about the standard process of purposefully hitting the Oscars, and those previous movies, they may not have known that they would be nominated for an Oscar before they starred in them." ”

"Since they're not like that, how do you ...... How do you come up with all that stuff?"

Eric, of course, summed it up based on memories from his past life. In a few years, Oscar's PR will become more and more standardized and formulaic, such as Nicole next to her. In the original space-time. Nicole was the first to get a copy of "Moulin Rouge". was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress, and in the following year, she reached the top with "All the Time". And a few years later, Jennifer Lawrence went through this standard process again, first getting a nomination for "Winter's Bones", and then "The Happiness Line Behind the Clouds".

There are also many examples of winning awards for a single film, such as Julia's "Never Compromise" or Charlize Theron's "The Devil", although these actresses have not had many nominations before. After the closure, they were already famous, and they had a sense of saving in Hollywood.

In the face of Nicole's endless questioning, Eric didn't explain any more, his big hand holding the girl's waist slid down, and slapped Nicole on the buttocks: "You have so many problems." ”

Niri twisted her body on Eric, laughed twice, and temporarily dismissed the idea of attacking Oscar. After a while, another thing came to mind: "Eric, do you think it's appropriate for me to star in an R-rated comedy like "Hot Hand Police Flower", and Pat said that this movie is too subversive for me." ”

"You're beautiful. But it doesn't look sweet enough, if you've been acting in romantic comedies. I promise you won't be able to compete with Julia, so it's better to try to expand the drama as early as possible and try some very individual roles, although "Spicy Police Flower" is an R-rated sequel, but Sarah's role is very brilliant if she performs it well. ”

When Nicole heard Eric mention Julia's name, her head turned, but she thought a little crookedly, and asked weakly, "Are you......?" You don't want me to compete with Julia Roberts, do you?"

Eric asked rhetorically, "Do you think I need to do this?"

Nicole was silent for a moment, realizing that she had rarely guessed Eric's true thoughts, and this time it was, of course. As she was thinking, she felt herself suddenly picked up by Eric, placed on his lap, and screamed softly, but obediently shrunk into Eric's arms.

Eric pulled down the girl's lilac bandeau gown, stroked the delicate and fair skin, and said in a slightly admiring tone: "It's perfect, you know, Nicole, if I didn't want you to compete with Julia, I would have locked you up in the villa of Sharp Horn Manor and been my personal maid all the time." ”

Feeling Eric tear off the nipple patch on his chest little by little, and then reach out and stroke it, Nicole leaned on Eric's shoulder with some gasp, and said tiredly: "I'm sorry, Eric, I shouldn't doubt you, can you forgive me?"

Eric still didn't stop his movements, and said, "I still have those maid suits, and I miss you a little bit for wearing those suits." ”

"I ...... Ha, I'll find time to ...... I'll wear it for you again...... Look at that. ”

……

It would have taken only forty minutes to get from the Holy Civic Auditorium in downtown Los Angeles to Beverly Hills, but by the time Eric arrived at the scene of The Silence of the Lambs, it was already more than an hour later.

Drew and Elizabeth, who came out to greet her, looked at Nicole leaning against Eric suspiciously, as 'people who came over', of course, they could distinguish the flush on Nicole's face that was difficult to hide, and they immediately had no good face for Eric.

Because of Nicole's doubts about herself, Eric specifically instructed the driver to go around the streets of Los Angeles a few more times, and harshly taught the girl in the car, although she didn't do anything substantial, but Nicole was still a little prostrated by Eric.

Facing Drew and Elizabeth's 'crusade' eyes, Eric's face did not change: "Liz, Nicole is a little tired, you can take her to find a room to rest for a while, I can go in by myself." ”

Elizabeth snorted angrily, but still said coldly to Nicole, "Come with me, Miss Kidman." ”

With that, Elizabeth turned around and walked towards the villa, and Nicole glanced at Eric, saw that the man nodded, and followed.

Xiao Nizi watched the two women leave, pounced on Eric, and asked with a smile: "Eric, doesn't it feel good about the car shock, do you want to find time to try it too?"

Eric stretched out his hand and slapped the girl's buttocks, and said with a 'stern expression': "Thinking about these messy things all day long, it seems that it is time to clean up well." ”

Drew smiled and said, "Uh-huh, uh-huh, it's packed up in the car, I promise I'll cooperate." ”

The two walked into the villa, the hall was crowded with people, and when they saw Eric appearing, many people took the initiative to come forward to say hello, and Eric also smiled and entertained one by one.

After chatting with Anthony Hopkins for a while, Eric saw Murdoch walking through the crowd and smiling towards him. Since it was a celebration of his daughter's winning the best picture, it was impossible for Murdoch not to attend, and Eric also saw that Murdoch was accompanied by two young people about his age.

After introducing each other, Eric learned that the two young men were Elizabeth's two younger brothers. Noticing that the two young men looked at him with a faint look of displeasure, Eric expected that Murdoch must have taught the two poor children a lesson with the allusion of 'someone else's child'. And that other people's child, who didn't run, must be himself, he is purely lying down.

However, although he was physically the same age, Eric was several rounds older than the two hairy boys, so he didn't care about the snubbing and hostility of the two stunned boys. After casually greeting him, Murdoch took the initiative to drive the two young men away and led Eric to a sofa where he sat down.

Looking at the figure of the two sons leaving, Murdoch couldn't help but sigh: "If Lachlan and James were half as capable as you, I would be able to hand over the property to them with confidence." ”

Eric vaguely remembered that Elizabeth had mentioned something about her two younger brothers, both of her younger brothers were standard gentlemen, and one of them was squatting in a class room because of drag racing, hearing Murdoch's emotion, his thoughts turned around, and Eric tentatively said, "Isn't there still Liz?"

Murdoch looked at Eric, remembering his daughter's relationship with Eric, Murdoch was a little worried.

Although he is 100% willing for Eric and Elizabeth to come together, and if the two can get married, with Eric's ability, he will definitely be a big help for News Corporation. But Eric was reluctant to marry his daughter more than a year ago when the fireflies were not yet on a large scale, so now this possibility is even lower.

What's more, with the current scale of Firefly and Eric's ambitions, Murdoch can be sure that even if Eric and Elizabeth come together, Firefly and News Corp. can only maintain a good cooperative relationship with News Corp. at best, and it is impossible for them to become a vassal of News Corp.
