However, they were doomed to disappointment, and after Eric got out of the car, the courtesy car drove away, and Eric also stepped on the red carpet alone. As he walked through the interview area, Eric complied with the reporter's request and stopped for a short photo session.

Seeing that Eric was about to leave, a reporter in the crowd finally couldn't help but shout, "Mr. Williams, why don't you bring a female companion?"

Eric stopped, looked at the reporter who was speaking, and seemed to want to say something, which cheered up all the reporters, as the media in the Hollywood circle, these people vaguely guessed that Eric might not know which woman to bring, so he simply didn't bring one, if Eric really said something similar, even if he asked 'Who do you think I should bring?', it must be a piece of news with a lot of room to play.

Eric whetted everyone's appetite, coughed lightly, glanced at the tape recorders held up by many reporters, a wicked smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, and then turned directly towards the end of the red carpet.

The reporters looked at Eric's back for a moment before the crowd let out a few self-deprecating laughs.

Eric's appearance was relatively low in the order, and as usual, there was already a large crowd waiting at the end of the red carpet, and occasionally a few celebrities would pretend to accidentally walk through the live camera of ABC TV in anticipation of showing their faces on the red carpet.

Seeing Eric's arrival, people who knew each other greeted him warmly, and Eric greeted Coppola and Al and others from the crew of "The Godfather 3" one by one, because Cage was Coppola's nephew, and the crew members of "The Godfather 3" were also near the crew of "The Godfather 3". And the crew of "The Silence of the Lambs" is also because of Eric. Gathered. Soon a small circle of more than a dozen people was formed.

"What's going on over there?" said Eric, after greeting the group, raised his chin towards a large group of people in front of him, who were also gathered there.

But before anyone could answer, the group seemed to have received some kind of signal and gradually dispersed, and Eric finally saw a man and a woman surrounded by the crowd.

The others looked strange and didn't speak, and Francis Coppola said, "That's Renny Haring and Gina Davis, Eric, you must know each other, right?"

Eric said quietly, "Of course I do. ”

Meantime. He also understood why there were so many people around Rainey Haring and Gina Davis just now, and he appeared and dispersed quietly.

Rainey Haring not only got the right to direct "Cut Throat Island", before that, he was also the director of Fox's "Die Hard 2", the script of "Cut Throat Island" has spread all over Hollywood, except for a few people who know that this is a trap, most people are optimistic about the prospects of this movie, once Rainey Haring has two consecutive blockbusters, his status in Hollywood will be hot, and it is no wonder that so many people have just gone up to talk about making friends.

At this time. Rainey Haring and Gina Davis also saw him, and Rainey Haring just nodded at him from afar. Pulling Gina Davis to the other side.

"Ray, we should go up and say hello," Gina Davis, who was holding Rainey Harlem in her arms, whispered.

Rainey Haring made his first film at the age of 26, and now in his early thirties, he has won two major films in a row, which is not comparable to Eric, but it is enough to be proud of most directors in Hollywood who have lived a mediocre life. Therefore, when Eric first appeared, the scene of the stars around them walking away because of scruples made Rainey Haring feel very uncomfortable, and hearing his wife say this, Rainey Haring was even more unhappy in his heart, and said: "Disney and Robert Shea have offended Williams to death about the script of "Cut Throat Island". When we go up to say hello, not only will we not get his favor, but Michael Eisner and Robert Shea will see it, and they will have an opinion on us, and there is no need to do this kind of unflattering thing on both sides. ”

Gina Davis sighed and said nothing.

And in Eric's circle, it is inevitable to talk about "Cut Throat Island".

Francis Coppola watched Reeney Haring and Gina Davis disappear and said to Elizabeth: "It was an accident that the script for 'Cut Throat Island' was snatched away. I just don't understand how Fox could let Rainey Haring go so lightly, there can't be any hidden reason in that, right?"

Elizabeth glanced at Eric, Rainey Haring, who was originally a young director that Fox Film Company had focused on cultivating, and for this purpose gave him the sequel to "Die Hard".

Moreover, Fox had already investigated Eric's appointment of Rainey Haring as the director of "Cut Throat Island", if it weren't for Eric's 'don't rob', Fox would have dragged on the lawsuit for a few years, and would not have let Rainey Haring leave so lightly.

Of course, this matter is not for outsiders, and in the face of Coppola's question, Elizabeth could only shake her head casually: "I don't know much about this, Fox's business is not something I can interfere in." ”

Coppola saw that Elizabeth was a little untruthful, but he didn't think that "Cut Throat Island" was a trap, and thought that this time, Fox, like Eric, had planted a heel with Disney.

Thinking of this, Coppola patted Eric on the shoulder in a very old manner: "Eric, Hollywood is actually like this, so don't take it too seriously, it's just a script, the most important thing you need is the script, haha." ”

Eric also laughed twice and asked, "Frank, how many Oscars does "The Godfather 3" plan to win this time?"

Coppola looked indifferent and said with a smile: "As long as I don't go home empty-handed, I'm satisfied, you know, facing Fox's little princess, my pressure is also very high." ”

"Mr. Coppola, you're making fun of me, too," Elizabeth said with a sneer, glaring at Eric, who wouldn't have earned such a degrading nickname if it weren't for this fellow.

The crowd burst into laughter again.

Soon, the guests attending the ceremony began to enter the auditorium one after another, and when Eric found his seat, he was a little dumbfounded when he saw Elizabeth and Nicole sitting on the left and right. He just said hello to Nicole outside and agreed to see him after the ceremony, but he didn't expect this to happen, this was definitely intentional by the Oscar organizing committee, it's really bad.

Although I was slandered, it was not easy to change seats at this time.

The ceremony hadn't started yet, and Eric was thinking about how to adjust the atmosphere, but the two women looked familiar, and Elizabeth stretched out her hand to Nicole: "Hello, Miss Kidman, long time no see." ”

"Long time no see, Miss Murdoch," Nicole also stretched out her slender arm and took Elizabeth's small hand.

When the acquaintances around saw this scene, they all consciously looked away.

Eric felt crackling sparks burst in his chest, looked at the two white arms straddling his chest, laughed dryly, and whispered, "Just hold it, be careful to grow together." (To be continued......)
