Chapter 536 Are You Looking for Someone?

Hearing Eric's slightly teasing tone, the three girls twitched the corners of their mouths together, but they couldn't laugh out loud.

Penelope was already extremely regretful at this time, and even hated Kate standing beside him. If it wasn't for this little smoking gun, she would never have smoked here. You know, among the three, she is the least addicted to smoking. It was the first time that I smoked during training. I didn't expect to be caught on the spot by Eric Williams. Although Eric Williams didn't look angry, it was bad. The impression is definitely left.

Charlize also felt a burst of regret at this time, and secretly vowed to never touch this thing again.

On the other hand, Kate Beckinsale quickly relaxed after her initial worries. She was born in the British middle class and her family situation is much better than the other two girls. Although her biological father died young, her mother and stepfather are both in British film and television. There are some contacts in the circle, and even if she loses this role and returns to the UK, she will not worry about not acting. Therefore, after a brief worry, Kate even secretly looked at the Hollywood legend in front of her.

Although she knew that the young man in front of her was only twenty-three years old, Kate did not see any of the pride and impetuousness that young people of this age often have in Eric. with indifference.

Eric stood up when the three girls jumped up in fright, leaned on the balcony railing and looked at the three girls who looked like quails in the corner with a smile, and shook the cigarette case in his hand with a smile: "Who is this? of?"

Penelope and Charlize both set their sights on Kate.

Kate, who was already relaxed, finally became nervous involuntarily following Eric's opening and the gazes of the other two women.

In fact, Eric had already expected that the cigarette in his hand belonged to Kate Beckinsale. There are definitely many actresses who smoke in Hollywood, but there are not many who are admittedly addicted to smoking. Kate is one of them. This British Rose with a somewhat maverick personality has been photographed by the paparazzi smoking in public places more than once, even in the face of the camera.

Facing Eric's gaze, Kate was about to muster up the courage to say something, when Eric slowly put the pack of cigarettes into his pocket. Then she looked at the two girls beside her and said, "Charlie, Penny, help me watch Kate, she won't be allowed to smoke in the future, at least until the "Charlie's Angels" contract is completed, no matter who tells me that Kate is smoking . Find out once, and the two of you will get 10 percent less pay."

When the three girls heard Eric's words, their eyes widened at the same time. Penelope couldn't help but pointed at Kate: "Then... what about her?"

Eric showed a slightly mischievous smile: "Kate's salary remains the same."

Kate finally said at this time: "Mr Williams,

It's all my fault. If you want to deduct the pay, deduct me, it has nothing to do with Charlie and Penny. "

Eric shook his head gently: "No, if you don't feel bad about detaining you, deduct them."

Since the original date, Charlize has always had some inexplicable resentment towards Eric. At this time, when he heard some outrageous punishments from Eric, he finally couldn't help raising his voice and replied: "You are so unreasonable. Makes sense."

Eric looked at Charlize's delicate face, which was still slightly baby fat. Resisting the urge to reach out and squeeze it twice, he said, "I'm so busy, I don't have time to reason with you."

"..."

Eric ignored the cute appearance of the three girls rolling their eyes together. Squeezed out half of the cigarettes in his hand and put them in the trash can next to him, clapped his hands, looked at the girls who were still standing in front of him, and said, "Go and change your clothes, just now Mr. Yuan said about your performance in the past two months. Very good, as a reward. I invite you to watch the movie tonight, the premiere of "Crash Between Heaven and Earth"."

The three girls looked at each other. Penelope took the lead towards the training room, and Kate followed closely behind. Charlize originally wanted to say something, but just looked at Eric, and immediately avoided it, walking in with a little reluctance in his heart.

Kate and Charlize walked into the changing room one after another, only to see that Penelope had taken off his training clothes three or two times, leaving only the underwear with a sense of surname, but the Spanish girl was not in a hurry to put it on. The clothes that I usually wear, but I took out the makeup tools from the bag and drew meticulously in front of the fitting mirror.

Seeing this situation, Kate couldn't help but teased first: "Penny, I don't think you need to wear makeup. As long as you wear this outfit, Eric Williams will definitely be fascinated by you."

Penelope frowned unmoved and said, "Hmph, you also said that if you hadn't encouraged Charlie and me to smoke, such an embarrassing thing wouldn't have happened."

Kate didn't have too much burden, and said while changing her clothes, "Don't worry, the big deal is that I won't smoke for a few months."

"Who knows if you can hold back."

Charlize folded the training uniform he took off and put it in the cabinet, and while the other two women were arguing, he said, "Hey, haven't you thought about why Eric Williams suddenly came to see us? "

Kate just put on a small t-shirt that showed her navel, holding jeans in her hand and akimbo in front of the full-length mirror, posing with a surname-like little color, looking at the mirror with fair skin, fair and charming, seductive girl, a little narcissistic Authentic: "It goes without saying, it's too obvious, but I'll never let this playboy succeed." After Kate finished speaking, she glanced at Penelope with some hatred.

Penelope couldn't stand Kate's eyes, and retorted: "What are you doing, you have a boyfriend, but I don't."

Kate said dissatisfied: "Who told you that I have a boyfriend."

"Who was that guy who called you last weekend?"

"It's just that I met when I filmed Much Ado About Nothing. I didn't promise to be his girlfriend."

Charlize listened to the murmurs of the two girls in silence. After changing into her regular clothes, she looked at Penelope, who had just finished putting on her makeup and started wearing clothes slowly, and she couldn't help unwinding the ponytail she had tied up because of her practice. Come, slantingly facing the full-length mirror not far away, I took care of my hair with my fingers.

Because of the summer, the three girls wore cool clothes. In addition, they are all at a flower-like age, exuding a youthful and invincible breath all over, so that Eric couldn't help but have a bright feeling.

Noticing the slight change in Eric's expression, Penelope leaned over with a little joy in his heart and asked, "Mr. Williams. Where are we going next?"

Eric pointed to the door and said as he walked: "I originally wanted you to show up on the red carpet to warm up for "Charlie's Angels", but now it's okay, the three of you show up together, I'm afraid you will grab it tomorrow I've talked a lot about "The Clash of Heaven", and I'll talk about it at the press conference of "Charlie's Angels"."

Penelope ignored the two sisters behind him. He followed Eric step by step: "Then this time we..."

"I'll arrange for you to come in directly and invite you to dinner after the premiere, how about it?"

"Okay, but I heard there's usually a party after a movie premiere?"

"do you want to go?"

"I... we will follow your arrangement."

"Oh. Forget it this time. I have to go to Europe tomorrow. It's not suitable for playing too late. I won't take you to the party. Next time."

"Well," Penelope nodded quickly and obediently.

Charlize and Kate, who were behind Eric and Penelope, heard the conversation between the two and pouted together, but they did not object to Eric's arrangement.

Eric came downstairs with the three daughters. Let the girls squeeze together in the back seat of his car, get into the co-pilot, and then tell the driver to drive.

Although the premiere only started at seven o'clock. However, at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, a long red carpet was laid outside the Chinese Grand Theater on the Avenue of Stars, and both sides of the red carpet were crowded with media and fans who came to attend the premiere. Of course, Eric couldn't take the three girls straight to the China Grand Theater. Instead, he stopped at a hotel not far away where the film creators and the guests of the premiere were temporarily staying, handed the girls over to the staff to arrange, and started by himself. communicative entertainment.

Saw Eric appear. Some of the stars who came to stand for the premiere came over to say hello one after another, and Eric entertained. Only then did he go to Roland Emmerich, the director of "The Clash of Heaven and Earth".

"Eric, congratulations. Jurassic Park's box office is amazing."

"Thank you, Roland, I believe that Clash of Heaven will also achieve great results," Eric said, and greeted Jon Landau, who was in charge of the production of Clash of Heaven and Earth. , asked, "What did you guys talk about just now?"

Jon Landau was originally Eric's official producer for Cameron, but Cameron would only make a movie in two or three years, so Eric asked Roland Emmerich to work with him. Jon Landau's partner started the project "The Clash of Heaven and Earth", and from the results, the effect was very good.

Hearing Eric ask himself, Jon Landau pointed to Roland Emmerich: "Roland is still a little worried about the box office of "Clash of the Earth", which is his first movie with an investment of more than 50 million US dollars "To be honest, I'm a little nervous too."

Because of "Jurassic Park"'s stunning box office results, as the second g-effect blockbuster launched by Firefly this summer, the media attention it has attracted is not much lower than that of "Jurassic Park", and the two films The final production cost of the movie is almost the same, and Eric can also feel the psychological pressure that Roland Emmerich is under.

However, compared to Roland Emmerich's mind, Eric is much more relaxed. Roland Emmerich has nearly ten years of directing experience since the earliest "Noah's Ark Guidelines", and his personal style has been Very mature, coupled with Eric's personal check, this version of "The Clash of Heaven and Earth" is definitely much better than the original in Eric's opinion.

Moreover, it is still 1993, and the G-special effects have only just emerged a few years ago. The North American and even the world film market is still in a state of hunger and thirst for G-special blockbusters. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the grades.

Eric didn't hide it, and told the two of his thoughts again.

Roland Emmerich also knew that what Eric said was very reasonable, and nodded in agreement, but the apprehension in his expression did not dissipate too much.

Eric also knows that only when the real box office results are released can Roland Emmerich be completely relieved. This is a common problem for many directors before the movie is released. Even Eric himself was a little uneasy before the release of "Jurassic Park". So there is not much consolation.

The press conference for the premiere was arranged after the film screening, so the red carpet session was much simpler. Eric still walked through the long red carpet leisurely, leaving his name on the signature wall. I quickly entered the theater.

When he was about to walk to his seat in the front row, Eric heard a slightly accented female voice on the left: "Mr. Williams."

Turning his head, he saw three girls sitting side by side. Penelope was talking and waving at him.

Eric nodded slightly, and many people greeted him along the way. Therefore, the girl's actions did not attract many people's attention. However, Eric felt that the Spanish girl really did not hide her thoughts at all, compared to the somewhat careless Kate and the inexplicably some resistance to him Charlize , Penelope is like a little wild cat that rushes forward without hesitation.

in memory. A Hollywood star with a big mouth gave Penelope Cruz a very apt title: trouble. In the original time and space, this hot Spanish girl has been in Hollywood since she entered Hollywood, and almost every time she shoots a movie, she can have some scandals with the male protagonist. For this reason, she also broke up a few couples and was dubbed as the Hollywood Little Three. Professional household, after Tom and Nicole parted ways in the previous life, he had a high-profile show of affection with Penelope for a period of time, obviously under the abacus of letting Penelope serve as the third Tom's wife. However, the reason why the two finally parted ways again is in Eric's view. It is estimated that Tom made such a decision because he consciously couldn't control this restless goblin.

Thinking of this, Eric became a little more interested. He wanted to see what little winds and waves this little goblin had just made his debut in this time and space.

Eric found a seat and sat down. The host of the premiere said something briefly and announced the start of the screening.

The lights in the auditorium quickly dimmed. Firefly Pictures that has made everyone familiar with the title appeared on the big screen.

After many revisions to the script, this version of "The Clash of Heaven and Earth" has been very different from the original version. It can even be said that they are two completely different movies. Many of the side plots in the original version that seemed out of tune with the theme of the movie have been deleted. After the comet that was about to hit the earth was discovered, Roland Emmerich focused his narrative on the three lines of the federal government, the female reporter Jenny Lena, and the boy Leo Bedman who discovered the comet. Through skillful interludes of plot and clever suspense setting, in the forty minutes of the film, it has been holding on to the heartstrings of the audience in the screening hall.

During an astronomical observation, the boy Leo Bedman discovered a comet that did not appear on the star map, so he reported the news to his mentor, and then a heavenly family found the comet after calculation. The comet's orbit will overlap the Earth's, which means that the comet is about to hit the Earth.

There was an accident when the family anxiously wanted to transfer the news to the federal government. There was a big suspense in the plot, and then the time jumped directly to a year later.

Female reporter Jenny Lerner is tirelessly tracking down a scandal. In the end, the breakthrough point of this incident is a woman named 'Allie'. During this process, the federal president suddenly appears, hoping Jenny Lerner Being able to stop the investigation, Jenny rejected the other party and continued her own accusations. The final discovery surprised her. It turned out that 'Ellie' was not a person, but a comet, one that was about to hit the earth. the comet.

Meanwhile, Leo, the boy who discovered the comet last year, is still living the same ordinary life in a small town as many American high school students, all unaware of the impending disaster.

When Jenny was getting closer to the truth, the federal government finally planned to publicly reveal the truth to the public, and Jenny was also invited to be the first to ask the president a question at the press conference.

It turned out that although the Tianjia had an accident in the process of transmitting the news, the news that the comet was about to hit the earth was discovered. In order to solve this crisis, several major powers united to build a ship within a year. A space shuttle with a nuclear bomb intended to blow up the comet before it hits the Earth. However, in order not to cause panic among the people as much as possible, the government of various countries unanimously chose to conceal the news.

The plot starts from here, and Roland Emmerich's ability to control the plot gradually emerges, just like "2012", which makes people feel thrilling every minute in my memory. From the launch of the space shuttle to the comet, the decision of the federal government, the fate of the little people, and the struggle of humanity under the disaster will undoubtedly not hold the audience's attention.

When the first attempt to blow up the comet failed. When the scene of the huge tsunami caused by a part of the comet crashing into the earth appeared in front of the audience, many amazing sounds could be heard in the theater tomorrow.

The ten-minute-long tsunami scene was completely produced using the most advanced g-effect technology in the digital field. Compared with the shooting of miniature models that can tell the real and the fake at a glance, the g-lens made everyone have a kind of real and fake difficulty. The sense of discrimination, when the monstrous waves swarmed New York. When the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building collapsed one after another, there were even exclamations like 'Oh my God' in the theater.

Eric felt the reaction of the audience in the screening room, and whispered in the ear of Roland Emmerich who was sitting next to him: "Roland, you can rest assured now. Maybe you can take time to discuss your next movie. Now, what do you think of the script for "Toxic Day"?"

Except for some film critics, most of those invited to the premiere are more die-hard movie fans. Even these people have such obvious and strong reactions to the movie, so it is impossible for this movie to not cause a sensation among ordinary audiences. Roland Emmerich is still very clear.

"If you can spare time, of course I'll be fine," Roland said in a relaxed tone. "However. I seem to have heard that you are going to Europe tomorrow, and I don't know when you will be back."

"This is not a problem. I have to do everything myself. Then what's the point of what my boss does."

The two smiled in unison.

Seeing that the movie has come to the end, Eric whispered to the people around him, and got up to go to the bathroom.

Although most of the people in the screening room focused on the screen, when Eric got up, some people noticed his movements.

Penelope glanced at Kate, who was staring at the screen. Carefully hunched over and left the seat, chasing after the disappearing figure that had been watching.

The nervous Kate saw Penelope get up. He didn't care, but Charlize kept watching Penelope. It wasn't until I saw the Spanish girl disappearing into the exit that a man just passed by in the Microsoft light of the projection room, she muttered something, a little unwilling, a little depressed, and a little inferior, and soon these Emotions were concentrated on a certain man again, so Charlize gritted his teeth and became hateful, and his mind could no longer be put on the movie.

This is the only chance. If you miss it, you don't know when you will wait for the next time.

Penelope thought to himself that he had passed through a small door and came to a corridor, and just noticed the corner where Eric's figure disappeared, and chased after him without hesitation.

The Spanish girl just chased the corner and immediately bumped into someone. Just as she was about to say sorry, she heard Eric's voice: "Girl, are you looking for someone?"

Penelope stood still and noticed Eric's playful eyes. Instead of feeling embarrassed, he looked at Eric boldly: "Mr. Williams, what a coincidence."

"Yeah, it's a coincidence," Eric said with a smile. He continued to walk a few steps forward, pushed open the door of the men's bathroom, and went in to solve his physical problems. After coming out, he found the Spanish girl pretending to be standing there. Apply light makeup on your face in front of the sink.

The prey was brought to his mouth, but Eric was of course disrespectful. He turned on the faucet next to the girl and washed his hands. He leaned into the girl's ear and whispered, "There's just no one in there, do you want to go in and have a look?"

Penelope's body froze, and after a while, he showed a charming smile to Eric, with a little provocation in his wild eyes: "Okay, as long as you are not afraid of being discovered."

Eric let the girl into the men's bathroom, and placed a cleaning sign outside the bathroom door. (To be continued)
