Returning to the girl's mansion at Strausdale Manor for a short rest, at seven o'clock in the evening, Eric and the two set off for the nearby Coldwater Canyon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Last time, Eric had already been to Kate Hudson's manor in Coldwater Canyon, but this time Kate Hudson's other family members were not there, but this time it was very well-stocked.

Eric arrives with the girl, and Kate Hudson's family welcomes them, along with a few other guests who have already arrived early.

Kate Hudson's mother is Goldie Han, but despite her surname Hudson, she grew up living with her mother and stepfather.

Kate's stepfather Kurt Russell is also a well-known Hollywood actor, active in the seventies and eighties, because Hollywood only began to expand globally in the nineties, Kurt Russell's international reputation is not high, due to his age, he is now more often only playing supporting roles in some films. Eric's impression of the other party is only the perverted driver in Quentin's "Torture Room: Death Proof" who drove a car of girls into her thighs and flew into the air with blood.

In addition to Eric and Drew, tonight's guests include the Gwyneth Paltrow family and Kurt Russell's best friend, the famous Hollywood director Ron Howard's family.

Goldie Han's generation is basically Hollywood stars, directors and producers born in the forties and fifties, rising in the seventies and eighties, and with the support of a more recent generation of families, they can be said to be a traditional Hollywood family like the Coppola family.

Speaking of which, if it weren't for the girl's parents who were too angry, they should actually belong to this circle.

Since it was summer, dinner was held on the open lawn with a cool breeze, and a long table was crowded with people.

Eric's position in this group of people was originally a little awkward, he should be regarded as the same age group as the girls and the group of children, but Eric's status in Hollywood made it impossible for Godie Han and others to treat him as a nephew.

Fortunately, due to his mental age, Eric naturally integrated himself into the circle of adults present, and a dinner was also a pleasure for the guests and hosts.

Tomorrow is Monday, and everyone has work, so the dinner did not go too late, and it was close to ten o'clock, and everyone was ready to leave.

Eric said goodbye to everyone, and the girl came out of a group of children, large and small, and pulled a tall but somewhat green red-haired girl: "Eric, this is Bryce, our new sister, she has been going to school in New York for the past few years, she has just returned to Los Angeles, and she plans to enter USC this year." ”

Eric naturally knew the girl in front of him, and everyone had introduced each other at the beginning. Bryce Dallas Howard, daughter of Ron Howard. Howard's family participated in this party, in fact, with the idea of letting their daughter integrate into the small circle of girls.

Smiling and greeting Bryce Dallas Howard, Eric said, "Let's go, we should go back and work tomorrow." ”

The girl whispered something to Bryce Dallas Howard, and the girl turned and walked away, and she leaned over and smiled, "Eric, I'm going to stay with my sisters today, go back by yourself." ”

Eric raised an eyebrow: "Are you planning to officially come out?" ”

"No," the girl stepped forward and hugged Eric, and said in his ear, "Natasha, they're outside, you take them back, hum, don't think I don't know, you've been thinking about them for a long time." ”

Eric grimaced, "I think I need to explain. ”

The girl knew that Eric was obviously about to start, pecked him in the face, and ran away grinning. When he returned to the girlfriend group, he waved his hand at Eric, looking very disgusted, and Kate Hudson in the crowd directly hugged the girl's waist and kissed her on the cheek like a demonstration, and the girls immediately laughed.

The girl didn't plan to go back, so Eric had to leave alone, and said goodbye to the Gottie Han and the others in the parking lot, and got into the car that the twins drove over.

On the way back to Strausdale Manor, seeing the two sisters who had blushed all the way, apparently under some kind of advice, through the rearview mirror, Eric had the idea that the virtuous wife of old times took the initiative to promote the round house between her husband and the big maid next to her.

Alas, this idea is really too feudal.

Still, well.

The twins obviously had some more panicked aura that they didn't have on weekdays, and it didn't dissipate until they returned to Strausdale Manor, and even Eric became a little nervous.

Remembering the "Pirates of the Caribbean" script he had seen on the plane, Eric simply took out his laptop and sent an email to Katzenberg in order to lighten up the atmosphere when he got home.

Although Katzenberg is off today, he has always had the habit of getting up at four or five o'clock to start work, and the two of them will have breakfast together on Monday morning as usual, and talk about various things in the company during the week.

After writing the email, I looked up again and found that there was only a girl sitting quietly on the sofa watching TV not far away, but the obvious flush could still be seen on the side of her face.

Karl Lagerfeld once said that Russia is a magical country, with the most beautiful women in the world and the ugliest men in the world. Given Lafayette's sexuality, it's hard to imagine whether he was happy or disappointed when he said this, but Eric couldn't agree more with what he had to say about Russian women.

The girl in front of her is wearing only a simple women's shirt and white slacks, and from the side, her figure looks more and more slender and slender, but it does not lack the delicate curves that a woman should have.

Feeling Eric staring at her for a long time, the girl obviously began to panic again, and the ruddy on her face had unconsciously spread to her fair neck.

Turning off the notebook and putting it beside him, Eric looked over and smiled and whispered, "It's really only one at a time?" ”

When the girl heard this, she didn't answer, but lowered her head and looked at the remote control of the TV in her hand, as if she was thinking about whether this thing could hide herself.

Eric didn't say anything, got up and walked over, looked at the pendant around the girl's neck, this is the sister, reached out to hold the girl's little hand and pulled her up, seeing that Natasha was still holding the remote control tightly, Eric didn't let her go, just said softly: "Let's go take a bath." ”

The girl still didn't say anything, but she was very obedient and followed him by Erech's little hand.

Half an hour later, putting Natasha, who was just wrapped in a large bathrobe, on the big bed in the bedroom, Eric leaned down and kissed the girl on the lips, and was about to continue the movement, when the girl's eyes that had been squinting opened, and her face flushed and murmured, "Lamp." ”

He had just been buried in a pile of bubbles in the bathroom, and he didn't have much to feast his eyes on, when Eric said softly, "I want to see Natasha's body, okay?" ”

Natasha didn't answer, but closed her eyes again, her long eyelashes trembling.

Eric thought that the girl agreed, and reached out to untie the bathrobe on her body, but found that Natasha's two small hands tightly clenched the bathrobe together, coaxed a few words, and gave a small force, Eric found that his strength might not be as strong as Natasha's, so he had to reluctantly compromise and get up to turn off the bedroom light.

The room darkened, and Eric felt that the girl on the bed had become more submissive, although Eric was not allowed to look, but he did not refuse Eric's touch, but the girl was silent during the whole process, and seemed very quiet.

When the pinch came, the girl in the dark naturally wrapped a pair of long legs around Eric's waist.

I thought it would be a good night, but at a critical moment, Natasha's long legs suddenly tightened, and the sharp pain between her back and ribs made Eric almost fall into tears.

It hurts so much.

It turns out that a certain screenwriter of the 007 series is not making things up, and there may be a very painful experience.

After a long while, confirming that Natasha had no intention of killing herself, and that it might just be because of the conditioned reflex caused by the first time, Eric took a long breath and carefully verified in a trembling tone: "Na...... Nata, has Eve seen GoldenEye too? ”

……

Early in the morning, Katzenberg arrived at Firefly Studios before seven o'clock, and Eric immediately rushed over.

In the dining room on the big ship, seeing Eric walk in, Katzenberg put down a document in his hand, although he felt that Eric was walking in a strange way today, and his arms seemed to be slightly raised, he still wanted to give Eric a hug very enthusiastically.

Seeing Katzenberg's movements, Eric hurriedly raised his hand, shook hands with Katzenberg, and pointed to his waist, saying, "Don't, Jeffrey, this, something is wrong, I can't hug others these days." ”

Katzenberg sat down at the table suspiciously, looked at Eric's situation opposite, and suddenly asked tentatively, "Yes, well, sandwiched?" ”

Noticing the surprise and embarrassment that flashed across Eric's face, Katzenberg immediately realized that he had been wrong.

It's not right to laugh at your boss, and it's even more inappropriate to laugh at your boss to your face.

However, Katzenberg couldn't help but smile like a chinchilla, and forced himself to take a sip of the water glass on the table, which barely suppressed the laughter.

Eric casually ordered a breakfast for the waiter who came over, and when Katzenberg also ordered the meal and the waiter left, he said helplessly: "Is it so easy to guess?" ”

Katzenberg shook his head with a smile, "I just made a guess that I thought was the most unlikely, trying to liven up the atmosphere." ”

All right.

Eric simply stopped the conversation, thinking about last night, he himself was a little embarrassed now.

Alas, I hope there is no psychological shadow left.

Katzenberg didn't continue to tease Eric, saying: "I met William yesterday, and the filming of "Gravity" may be extended by a month? ”

Katzenberg said that William was William Stewart, one of the producers of "Titanic".

Eric had agreed with the other party that he would have the opportunity to be his own producer, and after Jeffrey retired, he would be responsible for part of the production of "Gravity" this time.

Eric nodded, "I think some of the shots would be more perfect if they were shot with a virtual camera, so I'm going to reshoot some of the shots, don't worry, post-production and shooting will happen at the same time, so it won't affect the schedule of the film." ”

A virtual camera is technically a computer software designed specifically for CG shots, and it doesn't have a physical form, but it does all the things that a physical camera can do in a virtual environment.

Most of the scenes in Gravity were a combination of live action and CG, and when Eric wanted to convert some of the footage into virtual cameras, some of the original footage had to be scrapped and had to be reshot for compositing.

The budget for "Gravity" is only $100 million, which is actually a lot of savings for Eric's current coffee position. Therefore, when it comes to remakes, no one accounts for the more likely budget overruns. The most important thing is the schedule, as the first step in promoting the 3D and IMAX movie formats, if the schedule is delayed, it is simply a disaster.

Hearing Eric's explanation, Katzenberg was relieved and talked about the progress of the '4200' project: "We have identified 110 IMAX theater sites, of which 71 are in China and 39 are abroad. On the 3D side of the film, REG showed a lot of interest in our project. However, they asked for an exclusive monopoly of 2,000 3D screens in China, and asked us to give a high guarantee and a 3D movie list for at least two years after the completion of the theater renovation, which I have refused, but we have not stopped negotiating. I have a detailed report sent to your assistant's office, you can take a look at it when you have time. ”

REG (Regal-Entertainment-Group) is the largest theatrical alliance in the United States, which translates to Royal Entertainment Group. The company is actually made up of a series of sub-brands, with a total of nearly 7,000 screens.

Although it is the largest cinema alliance in North America, however, REG cannot cover all regions of North America after all, many states in the federal government do not have REG's business, Eric and Katzenberg both hope that the 3D screen can be rolled out across the country, so as to promote the promotion of this screening format, and it is naturally impossible to agree to REG's exclusive monopoly of these 2000 3D screens unless it is absolutely necessary.

After the '4200' plan, the two talked about some things again, and they ate about the same breakfast, before Eric asked, "Have you read the email I sent you last night?" ”

Katzenberg nodded, patted a folder next to him, and said, "I was reading this script just now, but, compared to "Cut Throat Island", I think this script just has some more fantasy elements, and the story is also very cliché, and there is really nothing outstanding about it." I also called in the morning to find out that this story has been around for two or three years, but because of the failure of "Cut Throat Island" that year, the script has been smashed in the hands of the agent and no one cares. ”

Eric agreed, saying, "I think so too, but I'm not going to follow the script, I just want to take the idea and modify it to make the supporting character Jack Sparrow the main character." So, you'd better get those two writers back from Paramount, I don't have that much time to revise the script myself. ”

"I'll arrange this as soon as possible." Katzenberg nodded, he had just expressed his opinion, but he didn't doubt Eric's vision for film at all: "But, Eric, we sold the entire Disney hand-drawn animation studio in the first place, and I don't know if Terry Rucio and Ted Elliott will be willing to come back." ”

Eric wasn't too worried, and said, "They shouldn't let go of this kind of opportunity." After all, the two of them are just ordinary screenwriters, and they are not big names. Of course, it doesn't matter if they don't want to come back, we just need to be able to get the script idea in hand. ”
