Chapter 424: Unexpected Circumstances

It was nearly midnight, and it was still pouring rain outside the window, but the rain didn't bother Eric at this time.

On the big bed in the bedroom, the woman who was already at the end of the crossbow gasped a few times, and the small hand that was propped up on Eric's chest became weak, and the whole person lay on Eric.

The temperature on rainy nights became cooler, the windows were not closed properly, and a cool breeze broke in from time to time. Eric thoughtfully pulled the quilt over and covered the two of them, then wrapped his arms around Virginia's soft waist and felt the pair of plump clings to his chest.

Virginia slowed down for a while, opened her small mouth and gently gnawed on Eric's neck a few times, then stretched out her hot wet little tongue and sucked it emotionally, and only after a long time whispered in a somewhat hoarse voice: "It would be nice if we could go on like this forever." ”

Eric patted the woman on the buttocks and teased, "It's not a teenage girl anymore, where do you get these messy thoughts." ”

"Hmm...... I hate it, you're only twenty years old, can't you say some sweet words that a hairy boy of your age should say to coax a woman?"

"It's all so familiar, it's so meaty to say such things. ”

Virginia seemed to be interested, propped up her body slightly and looked at Eric, looked at Eric with wide eyes, and said, "Honey, say something, I want to listen." ”

"Stop, don't speak in this tone, my cold hair stands on end. Okay okay, I'll brew it, brew it......"

Under Virginia's expectant gaze, Eric pondered for a moment before stammering, "Little ...... Little Baby......"

Listening to Eric's awkward tone, Virginia burst out laughing, and the whole person was soft on Eric again. Imitate Eric's tone, "Little darling...... Small...... Baby. ”

Eric laughed along. said, "Okay." Don't laugh, the main thing is that I know you too well, and I can't even play it. We'll find a nightclub another day and let you see how good I can do with girls. ”

Virginia continued to laugh a few times before saying, "Brag." ”

"How is it possible, the last time I went to New York, I caught two girls directly in a nightclub. But who told me to stick to my principles, and in the end I went back to the hotel alone. ”

Virginia asked to the point, "Did they recognize you?"

"Uh. This ......"

Virginia laughed again.

Eric had no intention of arguing, and drove the girl off of him, leaving Virginia happy for a while before putting his arms around her and saying, "Sleep, I'll have to get up early tomorrow." ”

Virginia also quickly quieted down, her little hand caressed Eric's strong chest, and asked softly: "Eric, you can't even say love words, so am I still your lover?"

"Of course, but I would prefer that our relationship would be more family-oriented. ”

"I haven't even experienced the taste of love. It's become family affection, so unwilling. ”

Eric turned his head and kissed Virginia on the cheek. said: "That's it if you're unwilling, little beauty, do you think you can still run?"

Virginia rubbed Eric on top of her and muttered, "I haven't even worn a wedding dress or a ring yet." ”

Eric shook the girl's hand: "How about buying you a diamond ring another day, the size of a pigeon's egg?"

Virginia laughed, "Wouldn't that be too pompous?"

"And what do you want?"

Virginia thought for a moment and said, "I want you to design a ring yourself, it will be unique." ”

"No problem," Eric agreed without hesitation.

Virginia received the promise and soon fell asleep contentedly, and Eric felt that the wind outside the window seemed to be stronger, got up and closed the window, and took another shower before falling asleep.

In the fog, I don't know how long it took, Eric suddenly heard a quick knock on the door, opened his eyes, the sky outside the window was still as dark as ink, turned on the bedside lamp and looked at his watch, three o'clock in the morning.

Feeling Eric's movements, coupled with the disturbance of the knock on the door, Virginia also woke up, saw Eric hurriedly put on his trousers and walked out, and sat up with him, found clothes to wear, it is impossible for the crew not to know that she will be in Eric's room tonight, and she is knocking on the door at this time, something must be serious.

Virginia had just dressed and walked into the living room when she saw Eric walking back with a stern face.

"Eric, what's going on?"

Eric returned to the bedroom to find his shirt and coat to put on, saw Virginia's worried look, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'm going to go out for a while, you stay here obediently, don't run around." ”

Seeing that Eric was hiding from herself, Virginia became even more worried: "What the hell is going on, can you sue me?"

Eric pondered for a moment before finally saying, "There was a tornado in the northwest of Cyberpunk City at about two o'clock in the morning, which just swept through the street set set up by the crew, and the staff in charge of guarding was injured, and Jeffrey and I are going to rush over now." ”

Eric hurried out and walked out, only to feel Virginia follow him out of the room. At this time, many doors in the hallway were open, and the crew members were asking what was going on, but no one cared about Virginia coming out of Eric's room.

The door on the right side of Eric's room also opened at this time, Joanna, who was wearing pajamas, saw the riot in the corridor, and her originally confused head quickly sobered up, and after asking about the matter, she learned that Eric was going to the scene now, and she also showed a worried look, the crew was filming "Tornado", and Joanna, who had read a lot of information, certainly knew the severity of the matter.

Seeing that Eric was leaving, Joanna stepped forward and pulled Eric's sleeve: "Eric, why don't I go with you?"

Virginia, who had been following Eric, immediately spoke, "I'll go too." ”

"Go back to your room, this hotel is a reinforced concrete building, and the weather forecast says there won't be too many storms, so it's safe here," Eric said in a quiet voice. There was no doubt in the expression.

I know that even if I go, I won't be able to help. Joanna pulled Laveginia. The two girls went back to Joanna's room together. Eric and Jeffrey quickly left the hotel with a group of people, and the roar of vehicle engines was heard in the streets.

The two girls didn't have the heart to rest any longer, and sat down on the small sofa in Joanna's room, Virginia took the coffee handed over by Joanna, couldn't help but look at the bright car lights outside the window, and said: "I said that there might be a tornado in the afternoon, and Eric asked me not to crow's mouth, I can't think of it...... I really shouldn't have said that. ”

Joanna poured herself a cup of coffee as well. Sitting on the couch, he comforted, "It's okay, what does this have to do with you." Because of this film, I paid more attention to tornadoes, and I have seen several tornadoes in the newspapers during this time, which is normal in the Central Plains. ”

Virginia sighed again, hearing the wind still coming from time to time outside the window, and couldn't help but say, "I hope nothing happens to Eric." ”

Joanna blinked her slender eyes and immediately said, "Don't say it." ”

Virginia was stunned and immediately covered her little mouth.

It is a suburb about seven kilometers northwest of Punk City. A streetscape in the town where the heroine's aunt's house is located seems to have been brutally swept by some kind of giant beast at this time, except for the obvious southeast-facing ruins. Because the makeshift set was not stable at all, the other buildings were also damaged by the wind and could no longer be used.

Under the headlights of several off-road vehicles, an assistant director was briefing Eric and other high-level crew members: "The seven employees in charge of guarding all hid in the abandoned basement in the south in time, except for one who fell in a hurry and may have a broken leg bone, the others only had simple extracutaneous abrasions, but all seven people had been pulled by ambulance to Punk City Hospital for examination." ”

Jeffrey asked uneasily, "Confirm it's seven people, is there anything missing?"

The assistant director nodded: "I personally arranged it, and the workers in charge of setting up the scenery are all from nearby towns, and they all go home to live at night, and there are only seven people here." ”

Eric and Jeffrey and the others have just relaxed, as long as the crew is okay, there is no big problem, otherwise, they will definitely have to entangle with the union again.

Because this movie involves too many thrilling scenes, several major trade unions are stationed here, and they have to point fingers at every turn.

Eric also understands why so many crews are keen to go to Canada and other places to shoot at this time, low labor costs and high tax rebates are one thing, but the most important thing is that they will not be constrained by various unions in the United States, these messy unions are extremely difficult, and you still have to listen to what people say, you can't hard-top, otherwise you will remove all their members in minutes and stop your crew.

As if not noticing the relaxed expressions of Eric and the others, the assistant director continued: "However, the town of Ridge in the southeast happened to be swept by that tornado, and I heard that two people were swept away, but they have not been found, and many people are injured. ”

Eric and Jeffrey looked at each other, not knowing what to say, no one could have said anything like that it had nothing to do with them.

The assistant director also felt that it was a bit inappropriate for him to suddenly mention this matter, so he had to turn to the matter: "So, Mr. Williams, what should we do here, do you want to rebuild it?"

Eric looked at the ruins illuminated by the headlights of several cars and shook his head: "Since this place was destroyed by a tornado, it is more realistic than the ruins we made ourselves in the later stage, so let's shoot the scene after the tornado crosses, and try to find a similar town to shoot the scene where the heroine's aunt's house has dinner." ”

The group discussed the details again, and when they returned to Punk City, the sky was already bright, perhaps because of the gust of wind last night, all the clouds in the sky had disappeared, and the orange morning sun slowly peeked out of the horizon.

Back at the hotel, Virginia and Joanna were greeted and relieved to see Eric safe and sound.

Although only one of the seven people guarding the set was slightly injured, during the day, the crew still encountered some entanglement from the union members.

Moreover, the news of the tornado encountered by the crew was also spread by the reporters who stayed in Punk City, and it was published in the newspaper the next day, and the more well-known newspapers were able to report truthfully, but those tabloids who were afraid of chaos in the world did not have these scruples, in order to win attention, the reports published were as strict as possible, and even pressed the casualties of the town of Ridge near the set on the crew's head.

In just a few days, a large group of reporters came to Cyberpunk City again, and seeing that things were expanding, Firefly had to issue an official statement in the Los Angeles Times, along with a joint statement from the relevant unions, and the turmoil subsided.

I don't know if it was this sudden tornado that blew away the crew's good luck, and the next filming began to have a series of large and small situations, and even a car accident, Eric had to set up a special safety team, and because of the delay caused by these conditions, the filming plan that originally ended at the end of June may be delayed by at least a week, that is, Eric will not only miss the premiere of "Toy Story", but he may not be able to go back when "Terminator 2" is released.

The quality of the two films is there, and the publicity and distribution work is also being carried out in an orderly manner, so whether he appears or not will not have much impact on the box office of the two films. However, Eric's main concern is Disney's "Cut Throat Island" released between the two films, and in early May, the highlights of "Cut Throat Island" have begun to be shown on television, and according to intelligence, the film will be completed in post-production in mid-June, and there will be no delays.

Eric, of course, didn't want "Cut Throat Island" to be postponed, and Disney inserted "Cut Throat Island" between the two films with the purpose of sniping "Toy Story" and "Terminator 2". But Eric knew that it would definitely be "Cut Throat Island" that would be sniped in the end, and he only hoped that "Cut Throat Island" would be sniped as badly as possible. Chris will also come with news from time to time, and now Firefly Investment has used several shell companies in its hands to disperse and absorb 7% of Disney's shares, if "Cut Throat Island" can repeat the situation in the original time and space, then with the resulting decline in Disney's stock price, Firefly Investment Company can take the opportunity to absorb more stock shares.

Because of his dedication to the production of "Tornado", Eric has not left Oklahoma for several months, after Virginia, Jennifer Connelly, Elizabeth and Drew and others have come to the crew to visit the crew, and in early June, Famic Jensen, who completed the filming of "Flowers of the End", also appeared on the crew, but the tall girl only stayed for two days before she had to rush back, and the new season of "The X-Files" will also begin to be produced.

After the departure of Famick Jensen, the crew soon welcomed a pink little Lori, and Eric originally paid a hundred dollars to make a cameo appearance with Ivanka Trump in five movies. There were originally two scenes in the script that could be given to little Lori, one was of course the part of the heroine Joe Harding's childhood, and the other was when Joe came to his aunt's house town destroyed by a tornado in a car, and saw a scene of a family of three hugging each other that caused his childhood memories, and there was also a little girl in the shot.

Ivanka, of course, didn't have the right to decide, and Eric faxed the scripts for the two scenes to Donald Trump in New York, and the real estate tycoon who had come out of the economic crisis finally chose the one with more scenes for his daughter. (To be continued......)
