Chapter 275 Urges

? Cooperation?

Hearing this question, Eric thought for a while, and shook his head. Although he had another soul in his heart, he didn't feel any obligation to help Hong Kong movies break into Hollywood.

And there are not many examples of successful cooperation between Hollywood and Hong Kong movies. There is only one "Rush Hour" series in my memory that can be taken out, but this movie is obviously not suitable to take out now. Jack Cheng has gone through several movies in his previous life. Foreshadowing, the "Rush Hour" series was launched only after Hollywood became famous, and luckily just hit the appetite of Westerners, and it was a great success. Now, although Jack Cheng is flourishing in Asia, he is not well-known in Hollywood. If he is invited to star in "Rush Hour", it is not much different to find a Chinese Hollywood action actor, but the other party's remuneration converted into US dollars is on the same level as Hollywood. The stars are almost the same.

"Mr. Zou, I don't think it's a good time to cooperate. I also know a little about the history of your film company. Jiahe's leading star, Jie & Wu & Wrong & Novel {www}.{quledu}.{}K. Cheng In the early 1980s, he tried to enter Hollywood, but he failed several times. I think he will no longer easily abandon his position and career in Hong Kong, and rush to Hollywood, right?"

Mr. Zou pondered Eric's words for a while, and his eyes showed disappointment and helplessness. Eric's words are indeed good. Hong Kong movies are now in a period of explosion. Jack Cheng has learned from previous failures, and it is impossible to take it lightly. Agree to come to Hollywood to develop. And apart from Jack Cheng, he couldn't cast any other actors. After all, they could arouse Hollywood's interest. Only Chinese Kung Fu. Even this time, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". In fact, it's all under the guise of some kung fu. The four ninja turtles in the movie are all played by Hong Kong martial artists.

"It's really a pity," Mr. Zou said, shaking his head. Although he still had some ideas of investing in Eric's films, the young man in front of him was the director of some of the most high-grossing films in Hollywood this year, and he wanted to invest in his films in Hollywood. Countless, it is impossible for an outsider like Golden Harvest to participate in and get a piece of the pie.

After eating the food in front of him, Eric said goodbye to Mr. Zou before getting up and leaving. Just a few steps away. A tall woman in a black dress came over to Eric with a glass of red wine, and it seemed to be the same old way.

It's really not creative, Eric smiled helplessly, turned slightly sideways, quickly reached out to hold the girl's wrist, took the red wine in the other's hand with the other hand, and raised it to the woman with a red face: " This lady, thank you for the red wine."

Seeing that her intentions were seen through, the girl immediately seized the opportunity and said, "No... You're welcome. Mr. Williams, my name is..."

The girl is about to introduce herself. Eric put a finger on the girl's red lips, looking directly at the girl's slightly widened eyes,

Said: "Miss, I once heard a very philosophical saying called 'Why do you know each other when you meet', so don't say your name?".

When Eric retracted his finger, the girl nodded: "That... well, Mr. Williams, do you have the honor to dance with you?".

Eric shook his head: "Sorry, miss."

The girl did not dare to be too entangled, she turned away in frustration, and Eric was about to leave when a slightly teasing voice sounded in her ears: "Why did we know each other when we met, Eric, that was the first time we met, why? Did you leave me in the office?"

"Because we are 'destined to meet each other'," Eric turned around and looked at Nicole beside him with a smile. At this time, the girl looked so stern and glamorous that she was no longer in the study. Embarrassment in.

Seeing Eric glance at his face, Nicole glared at Eric and whispered bitterly: "Next time you don't... don't let me do that again."

Eric shrugged unconcernedly and said, "As you wish, Nicole, you must know that I am a person who is very sympathetic and cherishes jade, and I will never force a woman to do anything."

Nicole bit her lower lip angrily, remembering the situation in the study where Eric held his face tightly to prevent her from dodging, and almost couldn't help splashing the red wine in his hand on Eric's face.

"You are so shameless."

"I like that women praise me the most," Eric said with a smile: "Miss Kidman, can I dance with you?".

Nicole hesitated for a while, but still handed the little hand to Eric. When the man pulled her to the dance floor, Nicole couldn't help but ask, "Why did you reject the 'nameless' lady? It's not like you character."

"Because I don't like her eyebrows, do you accept this reason?". On the dance floor, Eric put his arms around the girl's waist and said so.

Nicole followed the man's strength and brought her body closer to Eric, and retorted: "Damn, I think you are worried about Jenny being here."

"What about you, if you are so close, aren't you afraid that Jenny will have any associations when she sees it?".

"Of course not, because Jenny went outside." Even so, Nicole couldn't help but look around.

Seeing Nicole's reaction, Eric smirked again: "Nicole, do you think our conversation is very similar to an adulterer and a prostitute?"

"You're so nasty."

"Hey, you started complimenting me again. It's not good. Men are very complimented. How about we go to my study again?"

Nicole put her red lips close to Eric's ear and threatened: "As long as you are not afraid of being seen, I have no opinion at all, but if it is exposed, I will blatantly grab a man with Jenny."

"Wow, that's fine," Eric seemed to have thought of something terrible, pretended to have a cold war, and didn't mention it again.

The lively and lively party did not end until midnight. Eric used the master bedroom on the top floor, which had a 360-degree view of Malibu without any dead ends. stayed.

The next day, Eric went to watch "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" with Robert Shea and Mr. Zou from Hong Kong in the morning. To be honest, because he has experienced countless special effects blockbusters in his previous life, Eric watched this movie. The "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" with the special effect of '50 cents' had the urge to get up and leave several times.

Because he already knew the box office results, it would be too easy to find the merits of this movie in turn. Therefore, after watching it, Eric still endured the discomfort in his heart and praised the movie fiercely. , allowing Robert to safely release the film. After all, no one can afford to live with the dollar.

With Eric's affirmation, Robert Shea confidently set the release date of the film during the Easter period. Although this period is not as good as the summer period, it is quite good. Besides, the summer season must be reserved for my own movies. Although the new line of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" also has some investment, it is still not his own.

After discussing about "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", Eric had just left the screening room when he saw Allen waiting outside, saw Eric come out, walked up and said, "Eric, Disney President Frank Wells and Fox Television President William Bell is waiting for you."

"Did they come together, did they say anything?" Eric asked suspiciously.

Alan shook his head: "I didn't come together, and I didn't say anything about you."

Eric looked at his watch and said, "Let's go there then."

When he came to his office, Eric saw two middle-aged people sitting in the lounge chatting, so he greeted them, and wanted to invite the two of them to his office together, but Frank Wells and William Bell glanced at each other and didn't mean to be together. Eric realized that the two people had different goals in finding him, looked left and right, and suggested: "Or, Mr. Bell, you should rest here for a while first. ."

"No problem, Eric, I have nothing to do in the morning anyway." William Bell smiled and sat back on the sofa.

After walking into the office with Frank Wells, Eric asked the other party's purpose.

"That's it, Eric, didn't you promise Disney the distribution rights of a movie before? Mr. Eisner asked me to discuss this matter and sign the contract by the way, so that Disney can also include the distribution plan in next year. at work.”

Eric thought for a while, then said: "Sorry, Mr. Wells, I haven't decided what film to shoot next year, so how about waiting for the new year? Don't worry, I promise to give Disney a film. distribution rights.”

Frank Wells remembered Michael Eisner's instructions when he came, and said, "Eric, in fact, that's fine, can we sign a contract of intent first, you don't need to provide specific movie plans? , as long as you can make sure you hand over a movie to Disney next year. It's like... like those three movie deals you gave Fox last year, I don't remember you discussing with Fox beforehand anything other than Home Alone The content of the other two movies, isn't it?".

Eric spread his hands and said, "Frank, you have to know that Firefly is not the small workshop it was a year ago, so I can't take the liberty to promise you, many things need to be planned. Since you talked about last year's me As for the contract with Fox, I must be aware of some turmoil during the period, so when I plan my plans for next year, I promise to sign with Disney.”

Frank Wells said a few more words. Seeing that Eric did not let go, he left in disappointment. So far, very few people know about the matter discussed by the six in Malibu. In order to ensure that the secret is not leaked, except for the six, there are only some people who are directly responsible for the execution. And Michael Eisner did not tell Frank Wells about this, so Frank Wells also felt that the reason given by Eric was enough to take it back and explain it to Michael Eisner. (To be continued...)
