The door to the conference room was pushed open, and Mrs. Runkel, who was standing in the doorway, looked at Charleson Runkel, who had walked out behind Eric, and only after receiving a slight nod from Runkel did Mrs. Runkel smile happily.

"Mr. Williams, you are a very wonderful person, and I hope we will have the opportunity to work together in the future. Now that the dust had settled, Brian Kuzman no longer regarded Eric as a negotiating partner, and extended his hand to Eric with a calm and somewhat respectful face.

"I think so," Eric smiled and shook the other party's hand, this agent's self-cultivation skills are indeed admirable, if someone else was made by Charleson Runkel like this, it is estimated that he would have slammed the door in anger.

But Brian Kuzman did not linger long, and after a few cold words with the Runkels, he found a reason to leave.

Eric felt that while Stu could bring in a good income for the agent, then Brian Kuzman would have to give up his position as Stu Jr.'s agent and work with a very incompetent client who barely cooperated with him, which was difficult for any good agent to bear.

Looking at my watch, after more than half an hour of negotiations, the time had just passed twelve o'clock.

"Charlie, let's go to lunch?" said Eric for a moment, and whispered to the Runkels who were standing nearby.

Charleson Runkle looked up and saw that Eric was still wearing a friendly expression. It's rare to have the breath of the high school boy next door. But Charleson Runkel could no longer look at Eric as the boy he had been. He reckoned that he would not be able to forget Eric's aggressive momentum in the small conference room for a long time.

"No, Eric, we have something to do. Charleson refused.

"No, I'm going. When the little one heard his father's refusal, he immediately shouted in displeasure, and tried to rush to Eric's side, but was held tightly by Mrs. Runkel. He glared at the little guy a few times in warning.

Eric knew that the estrangement between the two parties due to interests was difficult to bridge, so he stopped inviting him, comforted the little guy a few words, and left with Elizabeth and the others.

In a restaurant near Century City, Alan and the driver consciously sat at another table, leaving only Eric and Elizabeth sitting opposite each other, and after ordering food, Elizabeth couldn't wait to ask, "Eric, have you talked so soon?"

"And how long do you think it will take?" asked Eric.

Elizabeth thought for a moment and said, "I remember last year Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman's "Rain Man" talked about it for more than half a year, and in the end it almost went yellow. And "Dark War". You've been in a stalemate with the CAA for a long time, haven't you?"

Eric smiled: "This time the situation is different, if it is with the agent of CAA." It may take a while, but I'm talking directly to Charleson Runkel. ”

The girl nodded as if she didn't understand, and asked again, "What is the salary of that little guy this time?"

"8 million plus 3% of the North American box office share. ”

"It's so high, it's so cheap, that little pervert. Elizabeth said hatefully.

Eric thought to himself that he must have negotiated with Runkel, but the girl was bullied by the little guy again: "It's not high, and Stu is worth the price, if it is negotiated with the CAA who has the initiative, the final price will definitely be higher." It's a pity that the couple is neither smart nor trusting others, and in the end they suffer themselves. ”

"You're really impersonal, I remember they were your neighbors, right?" the girl immediately changed her stance when she heard this.

Although Eric liked Stu's clever little fellow, he no longer had any affection for the Runkels, but he did not bother to ask for credit, and the waiter brought lunch, and ate in silence.

"Are you so busy every day?" said Elizabeth, it was already past six o'clock in the afternoon, and after a long day's travel, Eric returned to his office. He also needed to approve a few articles about the merger of the new line and the firefly. There were no more people in Firefly's office building, and Elizabeth didn't leave work like everyone else, but stayed bored in Eric's office, looking around.

"No, it's just that there's been a lot going on during this time," Eric replied without looking up.

"Oh," Elizabeth replied, opening the window of the Wen Jiàn cabinet, and taking out a random copy of Wen Jiàn and looking at it.

It wasn't until seven o'clock that Eric tidied up the text in front of him, only to find Elizabeth still curled up on the sofa in her office.

"Everyone else is off work, why don't you leave?"

Seeing that Eric seemed to have finished dealing with things, the girl quickly stood up and put a book in her hand back on the shelf: "It's nothing to go back, besides, things must be done from the beginning to the end." ”

Eric wanted to tease him, but for the sake of the girl who had been with him all day and was quite obedient, he swallowed back the words that came to his lips. But the girl obviously didn't appreciate it: "You must be trying to sarcastically say two words to me, right?"

"No," Eric denied, "let's go." With that, Eric took the lead and walked outside.

The girl caught up with the first two steps and said reluctantly: "You must have wanted to sarcastically mock me just now, nothing more than some idle lady or something, right?"

"Well, I do have that idea," Eric replied reluctantly, greeting the company's security a few times and making his way up the stairs.

The girl showed an expression that was really like this: "I worked all day, and I didn't even ask you for overtime pay, you think of me like this, apologize quickly." ”

"I'm sorry. Eric didn't bother to argue with the girl.

The girl pouted: "It's really insincere, you have to invite me to dinner or something, I've been with you until so late?"

Eric was just about to find a place to settle dinner, so he nodded, "Okay." ”

Elizabeth suddenly became suspicious: "You agreed so lightly, you won't have any intentions against me, right?"

"You're such a typical woman. Eric was completely helpless.

Although I know the words of the follow-up. Eric certainly wouldn't have a good review. But Elizabeth still couldn't help but speak: "What do you mean by that?"

"If you are far away, you will complain, and if you are near, you will not be inferior. Eric said something in Chinese that he hadn't spoken for a long time.

Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, quickly reacted, and at the same time forgot about the topic just now, and said with a little smugness in her tone: "This is Chinese, don't think I can't hear it, there are many Chinese students in our school." After the girl finished speaking, she immediately said very lamely: "Tian Wang should shout." Wrap him really up to the waist. How am I talking about it, it's more standard than you, right?"

Eric rolled his eyes, and said in his heart that it was really standard, and it was not easy to say all the words in the first voice, and he pondered several times before he could react to what the girl was saying.

"Do you know what that means?" asked Eric casually as he walked out of the building.

"They say it's a code word, it's like opening the door with sesame seeds, and I can still write it, but you definitely can't write it, right?"

"yes, yes, you're better than me. Eric said perfunctorily. Heading to the parking lot, Eric looked around. Asked, "Where's your car?"

"I didn't drive today," the girl said.

Eric had no choice but to open his car door: "Then get in the car." ”

After dinner, it was already past eight o'clock when he came out of the restaurant, Eric looked at the girl who was still following him and asked, "Why do you go back, do you want to call your driver to pick you up?"

The girl looked at Eric and said in disbelief, "How can you be so ungraceful, in this case, shouldn't you send me back yourself?"

"Please, Your Royal Highness Princess, your home is in Malibu, it takes two hours to come and go, don't bring such a toss. ”

"Forget it, I'll take a taxi back," the girl looked indifferent, put her two little hands in her jeans pockets, paced a few steps on the side of the road, looked at the traffic coming and going on the street at night, and said in a quiet tone: "But there have been several taxi robberies in Los Angeles recently, and I heard that the victims are all young women." But don't worry, if something happens to me, my dad won't blame you. ”

"Get in the car!" Eric gritted his teeth.

The girl smiled, like a nimble cat, pulled the car door in twos and threes, got into the co-pilot, and saw Eric who was sitting in next with a depressed face, and the girl who was wearing a seat belt laughed twice: "Okay, lie to you, I live with Julia all these days, although I don't go by the way, but I can't waste you long." ”

Eric snorted and stepped on the gas.

Not long after the car drove out, the girl suddenly stretched out her finger and said, "There is a movie theater in front, let's watch a movie and then go back, it's still so early, I haven't seen a movie for a long time." ”

Eric pulled over to the side of the road, didn't pull out the keys, didn't mean to get out of the car, put his hands on the steering wheel, turned his head sideways and asked, "Liz, what do you want?"

Seeing Eric's impatient look, the girl's lips moved, waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I'm just casually mentioning yì on a whim, people like you always have such complicated minds." If you don't look at it, you won't watch it, send me back. ”

Eric slapped the steering wheel: "Look, isn't it just a movie?" ”

Not only do I want to watch a movie, but I also want to see what this chick can do tonight.

"It's like a gentleman," the girl quickly unbuckled and got out of the car.

Eric drove the car into the parking lot, got out of the car, and walked into the adjacent movie theater with Elizabeth.

"I'm in for a treat, what are I looking at?" said the girl in the ticket hall, generously pulling out her small purse.

Eric glanced at the posters put up by the movie theaters around him for publicity, and pointed to one of them: "This one." ”

"When Harry Met Sally?" the girl leaned over and looked at the poster's slogan, "It looks interesting, that's it."
