Chapter 403 I Regret It

When Alice heard Charlotte's words, she immediately turned around and looked back, but Eric's black car had already disappeared in the traffic in the middle of the night. [burning^text^book library][www].[774][buy].[]

Alice turned around in disappointment and said to Charlotte, "Why didn't you tell me just now, then I can ask him for an autograph."

"He doesn't want to admit it, what's the use of saying it," Charlotte shrugged and said with a bit of regret, "Oh, it's a pity, if we could... In a small apartment next door, maybe even Hollywood."

Alice blushed: "No wonder you said that just now."

Charlotte pinched Alice with a smile: "You're looking forward to it. In fact, I only judged from the woman next to him that he is Eric. Did you hear that just now? He called that woman. Catherine, I'm sure she's Catherine Bigelow, she was on the Tonight Show a few years ago to promote "Fright Point", remember, you just got back from Colorado that day, and we stayed up late, just to see The show that day."

"I remember, but Catherine Bigelow looks so young, doesn't she mean she's in her thirties?"

"Thirty-nine years old," Charlotte said, rubbing her cheek with some envy, "If I can still be so beautiful at this age, I would wake up laughing from my dreams."

...

When the two women were gossiping about Eric, Eric and Catherine returned to the hotel in the car. The woman didn't say a word for a long time. Eric finally couldn't help but ask, "What do you think?"

Catherine glanced at Eric, did not hide her thoughts, and said, "I'm thinking about staying away from you, you are too dangerous, and within an hour of getting along, you coaxed those two girls into being willing to be with you. You go to bed."

Eric said: "Maybe they recognized me. You know, I am very rich. This is a good opportunity for ordinary girls who are at the bottom of the metropolis."

"The short-haired girl recognized you, but the girl with the ponytail didn't. But she didn't resist the short-haired girl's suggestion," Catherine easily pointed out the key point: "Of course, this has nothing to do with me, the important thing is..." The woman He raised his wrist and glanced at his watch: "It's fifteen o'clock now. If I don't have work, I will rest at ten o'clock. This is the rule I set for myself. And. Before that, I never No nightclubs. No... white scarf, and Betsy pointed at my scarf before dinner and asked what happened, and I don't know how to explain it."

Eric couldn't help but touched his nose,

Said: "Sounds like a serious look."

"Severely, of course, the inertia of human instinct is very powerful. It takes years to build a rigorous way of life, but it may only take a week of indulgence to destroy it."

"I didn't take you to indulge?"

Catherine looked at Eric with complicated eyes, remembered the age gap between the two, and said, "Being with you is an indulgence in itself."

Eric distinguished: "But you invited me today?"

"I regret."

Don't know why. Hearing Catherine say this, Eric suddenly remembered a certain Lolita's righteous 'twenty dollars'. It seems that no matter how old a woman is, being unreasonable is a talent, but occasionally being a little bit of a temper is also a lovely part of a woman. place.

Catherine didn't know what Eric was thinking, and after saying this, she turned her face and looked out of the car window.

The two did not speak until the Soho Hotel, until they walked into the elevator together. Arriving at the floor where Catherine lived, the woman took a few steps, but did not leave the elevator immediately. She turned to block the elevator door and said to Eric, "Sorry, Eric, I just overreacted. I shouldn't have said that."

Eric covered his chest exaggeratedly: "Scared me to death, I thought you would never ignore me again, as a consolation, should there be a hug before good night?"

The little guilt that Catherine had just raised vanished with Eric's expression.

This little jerk!

With a faint smile on her lips, the woman glared at Eric, turned and left the elevator without looking back.

Early in the morning, Catherine still came to the restaurant on time. Eric was already sitting there.

The woman was hesitant just now, but Eric looked up and smiled: "You don't really want to draw a line with me, do you?"

Catherine also felt that she was too sensitive, so she walked across to Eric and sat down.

After having breakfast together, Eric asked the waiter to clear the table and said to Catherine, "I'm going back to Los Angeles today, when are you going to go back?"

Catherine felt relieved and asked easily: "I plan to stay for another month and go back at the end of February. Are you done with your business?"

"The war in the Middle East has begun to wrap up, everything has settled, I don't need to stay here anymore. And my next film needs to start preparations."

"Is that the "Tornado" you mentioned?"

Eric said with a smile: "Yeah, start preparing now, make it this year, and release it next summer."

"One year is such a long cycle."

Eric explained: "In the future, special effects movies will become the mainstream of Hollywood, and you will find that this cycle is not long at all. In fact, this is also a monopoly in disguise. As the investment in movies increases, the production cycle becomes more and more In the long run, those independent production companies with extremely low risk tolerance will be eliminated in large numbers, and only a few major Hollywood studios can support this kind of film project.”

Catherine said, "I'm not interested in telling me what to do."

Eric just wanted to tell the opposite woman the fact that all of Katherine's works in her memory were independent films, and it also caused her to spend a lot of time in the financing process for each of her works.

"Okay, let's get down to business," Eric handed a thick file bag to Katherine: "This is the script for Saving Private Ryan, and I'm filming Panic Point. We made some revisions to the results of our discussion when we were there, and took some time to spend some sub-shots in our spare time. There are 76 shots in total, which you can use as a reference.”

Catherine heard that Eric had drawn 76 sub-shots, so she couldn't help but open it and take a look. She had seen the draft of Eric's sub-shots in the study of the Sharphorn Manor, but she opened it and looked at it at this time. The drawing was very different from the style I had seen at the time, it was very scribbled, but it was easy to distinguish the relevant camera scenes.

"It's so ugly," the woman said with a smile.

Eric said: "If there is enough time, I can also draw as precise as you do industrial design drawings."

Catherine flipped through the sketch in her hand and said, "But, I don't seem to have agreed to take over this film yet?"

"Then look at it and think about it," Eric said, "But you can imagine that if you can make a good war epic that is rarely touched by female directors, and win enough praise and box office, then in the future you will In Hollywood, gender will never be treated differently, will it?"

After hearing Eric's words, Catherine paused, obviously very moved, thinking for a moment, the woman quickly made up her mind: "Okay, I will take over this movie, but you must not interfere too much, I But I don't want it to be filmed in the end, and others will attribute the results to you."

Eric smiled and said: "Of course no problem, I can find another producer for you." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest power.)
