761 I Don't Like Japan
[Give me half an hour]
As soon as Eric walked into the villa by the sea, Drew greeted him with Amy Pascal, Frank Mackasso and others.
MGM's ostensibly largest shareholder is Drew, but almost everyone knows that the studio is still in Eric's hands. This can be seen from the fact that MGM's celebration party was chosen at Jianjiao Manor tonight.
After greeting Drew and MGM executives who were in charge of the party tonight, Eric saw Tom Hanks coming over with a woman in his thirties, greeted him warmly, hugged her, and said, "Tom, it's a pleasure to meet you, I didn't expect you to come over so early." ”
"I came over early to talk to Drew about Forrest Gump's award PR," Hanks explained, introducing the woman next to him, "This is my wife, Rita Wilson." ”
"Hello, Ms. Wilson," Eric greeted with a smile and said to Hanks, "With the influence of Forrest Gump, I think you're going to do an Oscar miracle this year." ”
"Forrest Gump" has been released for nearly half a year, and the total box office has already exceeded 300 million US dollars. However, the film is still being released in more than 1,000 theaters in North America, especially in December, with the advent of the awards season, the topic of "Forrest Gump" in the media has been hyped again, and the box office, which has begun to languish, has rebounded again, reaching a scale of two or three million dollars per week, and the weekly box office of two or three million dollars is not worth mentioning for a newly released movie, but this is a miracle for a film that has been in theaters for nearly six months.
With its super popularity and word-of-mouth, there is no doubt that this film is locked in the major awards of this year's Golden Globe Awards and Oscars.
Therefore, the most talked about in the media in recent times is Tom Hanks's Oscar nomination for Best Actor.
Last year, Tom Hanks just won the Best Actor award for "Saving Private Ryan", and usually, after only a year, it is almost impossible for an actor who has already won the Golden Man to win the award again, but "Forrest Gump" The influence is so great that the image of the actor Forrest Gump has almost been rendered as a symbol of the American spirit, coupled with the strong support of film critics and the Olympic Award judges themselves, although this year's Oscar nominations have not yet been announced, most of the media have begun to discuss the possibility of Tom Hanks winning Best Actor for a second consecutive year.
"Oh, I wish I could. Hearing Eric's words, Hanks also smiled wistfully and said.
There are not many actors in the history of the Oscars who have won two Best Actresses, but if he wins the same award two years in a row, his name will undoubtedly be recorded in the entire history of Hollywood films, and this honor is not something anyone can refuse.
The two chatted for a while, and Eric greeted the other guests who had already arrived, and was about to go upstairs to take a shower and change clothes, when a timid female voice came from behind him.
"Hi Eric......"
Eric turned around and saw Christina Aguilera standing behind him, the girl was wearing a knee-length pink dress, Eric vaguely remembered that this was the Chanel style that the girl had worn, although Christina did not mean to grow taller, but wearing this expensive little dress, it also gave people a slim feeling.
Looking the girl up and down, Eric nodded with a smile, and said carefully, Christina, who was still a girl at this time, looked more like a girl next door than Britney, but it was a pity that in the original time and space, Christina, who also walked the 'Britney' route, could not compete with Britney.
After admiring it with satisfaction for a moment, and seeing the shyness on the girl's somewhat reserved face, Eric asked, "Christie, why are you here?"
"I, uh-huh...... Christina pinched her little dress and said, "I'm here to help Drew organize the party together." ”
"Oh," Eric smiled, without delving deeper, "Drew should go to the kitchen, you go over, and I'll change my clothes before the party starts." ”
"Hmm," Christina nodded obediently, watching Eric walk down the stairs not far away, she looked around to see that the party company staff was putting the finishing touches on the hall, and some of the guests who arrived early were chatting near the glass curtain wall, and no one seemed to be paying attention to her.
After a moment's hesitation, Christina plucked up her courage and walked towards the staircase.
She had been to Sharp Corner Manor before, and had been allowed to stay here for the night, and the girl crept around the long hallway for a while before finally finding Eric's master bedroom.
Carefully turning the bedroom doorknob, luckily it didn't lock, I pushed the door open and crept inside.
It was a large, circular bedroom, much larger than her own home, at least at first glance, and the endless canopy outside the glass windows reminded Christina of the cliff restaurant that used to appear on the TV.
There was no Eric in the bedroom, but she quickly noticed the clothes that Eric had dropped on the bed, and looked left and right, in addition to the door leading to the corridor outside, there was a small door next to it, which should be Yumuro, well, he must be taking a shower.
Thinking of this, the girl's face couldn't help but turn red.
After hesitating for a moment between leaving or continuing, Christina finally made up her mind, closed the bedroom door with her backhand, and walked towards the Yumuro door.
Eric was comfortably soaking in the hot water, when he heard the sound of the door being opened, turned his head, and saw the small figure he had just met flashing in.
Looking at each other, Christina's face suddenly turned into a red apple, and she stood by the door at a loss.
Eric stared at the girl for a moment, then said helplessly, "You shouldn't have come in." ”
"I, Eric, I," she said impulsively, but, upon seeing Eric, Christina felt like her little brain had somehow turned into a buzz, and she didn't know what to say.
Eric couldn't help but laugh and said, "Go out, if Drew finds out you're doing this, then you'll never want to get such beautiful clothes to wear in the future." ”
Hearing Eric mention Drew's name, Christina was a little sober, and after being together for so long, of course she knew Drew's temperament. However, although she didn't dare or want to be jealous of Drew, after all, Drew was still very good to her, and the Chanel gown on her body was said to be worth $8,000 given to her by Drew, and she couldn't afford $8,000 anyway.
But I still can't help but envy in my heart.
It is said that Drew is now worth more than $2 billion, and all because of the man in front of him.
Thinking of this, she didn't leave, but plucked up the courage to kick off the little heels on her feet and walked towards Eric.
"Eric, I'm ......" Christina came to the edge of the tub, knelt down, and stroked her little hand on the thin layer of foam in the tub, trying to look at Eric, "I...... Anything will be done. ”
Eric smiled, reached over the large bath towel next to him and handed it to Christina: "Padded under your knees, you won't be able to change the dress when it gets wet." ”
After Christina said what she had just said, she was already nervous, and she obediently put the large bath towel under her knees, and looked at Eric with a red face, as if waiting for the man's command.
Eric didn't make any moves, leaned comfortably in the bathtub, and said casually, "Tell me about you, what have you been doing lately?"
Christina's slender fingers tappled lightly across the marble countertop on the edge of the tub and said, "I, well, have been in dance class lately. ”
Eric recalled, nodded, "Oh, according to your age, you can release a single almost next year." ”
"But they say that if I want to release an album, I won't be at least 18 years old," Christina said with a disgruntled curl of disgruntled lips.
"Oh, you know, Christie, there are not many singers in this world who can release an album at the age of 18. ”
Christina glanced up at Eric, then quickly lowered her head and muttered, "But I don't want to wait more than two years." ”
Eric asked, "Why?"
Christina's finger scribbling on the marble table paused and said, "Eric, I think I'm going to be able to release an album by now, and there's no rule that girls under the age of 18 can't release albums, right?"
"But that's the rule, if you're under eighteen years old, if you follow your development route, it's bound to be controversial in the future," Eric said, Firefly Records' future route plan for Christina is a somewhat rebellious image of a girl, if she is under the age of eighteen, although it will not affect her Zhou Hong, it will definitely cause adults to worry and disgust about teaching bad children.
Christina bit her lip, looked up at Eric, and said, "Eric, I've heard that many singers can go to Japan in advance before they become adults. ”
"Well, it should be," Eric nodded, not only a singer, because of the different laws and regulations, coupled with Japan's respect for Western culture, many underage girls are used to going to Japan for a few years, and Eric remembers that many well-known supermodels, actors and singers have had this kind of energy.
Christina raised her little face and said hopefully, "Then I can ...... Shall you go there and release an album first?"
"I won't stop you if you want to go," Eric said, "but I don't like Japan." ”
"Huh?" the girl uttered a confused syllable.
Eric repeated: "I mean, I don't like Japan. ”
Christina pondered for a while before she understood.
Eric didn't like Japan, so he went to Japan in advance to develop, and then ......
She quickly reacted and said, "Then I won't go." ”
Eric smiled with satisfaction and said, "Christie, for many girls, at your age, they should all be in high school, the future is still far away from them, your starting point is already very high, I don't think you need to be in any hurry, don't you?"
Christina said: "Eric, I don't go to school now, I'm stupid, I can't learn anything, I might as well come out and work early." ”
"I think Disney should have given you some characters, right?"
Christina nodded, since the members of the Mickey Mouse Club were recalled, in addition to their studies and daily training, in order to maintain their public popularity, Disney Channel has also often provided them with some roles in their own children's TV series. However, these roles are usually paid in the few thousand dollars, and they don't necessarily happen once in a month or two. For Christina, who has been accustomed to seeing the world by Drew's side, the money is not worth mentioning at all.
