Eight Hundred and Ninetieth Chapters After All Still Can Not Hold Back

Simon Fuller noticed Eric's distracted expression again, hesitantly wondering if he should take the initiative to walk away, but he was very reluctant. Meeting Eric at this party was a big surprise for him. Although Firefly Group's record business happens to be the shortcoming of this media group, in Simon Fuller's view, this is precisely an opportunity . Based on his many years of experience in dealing with people, he realized that Eric must be interested in him, otherwise the other party would not have chatted with him for so long, but the young super tycoon was somewhat absent-minded during the conversation. As if suddenly remembered something.

Considering that maybe it was his topic about the record production process that made the other party less interested, Simon Fuller was about to talk about Eric's latest Casino Royale when Diana walked over to them through the crowd, following each other step by step. followed her boyfriend Dodi Fayed.

Noticing that Simon Fuller was standing beside Eric, Diana nodded politely to him, and then said to Eric who had recovered: "Hey, Eric, it's show time, and, Tina, are you ready?"

Christina glanced at Eric, then nodded to Diana: "Of course, ma'am, I'm fine at any time."

"In this case," Diana said to the entourage behind her, "Paul, take Miss Aguilera to prepare."

Watching her entourage take Christina away, Diana turned to Eric and Simon Fuller and asked with a smile, "So, what were you talking about just now?"

Simon Fuller didn't know if Eric had any intentions of approaching Diana, so he didn't take the initiative to talk to him.

Seeing that Simon Fuller didn't answer, Eric smiled and said, "Some questions about record production. Simon is a very good music producer, and I happen to be interested in these, so let's chat casually."

Diana was also interested, but a little regretful, and said: "Speaking of which, I have always fantasized about being able to release a record of my own, but unfortunately, I have never had such an opportunity."

Eric said: "If you want, I can help you."

"Really?" Diana looked at Eric with a smile on her lips, and said, "Eric, I will take it seriously."

Eric stared at Diana's face that showed no signs of age, and nodded very firmly: "Of course, if you want, we can have someone prepare it for you tomorrow."

Dodie Fayed was a little dissatisfied with being ignored, and felt that Eric was obviously starting to pry the corner, so he hurriedly moved to Diana's side, and said in a gentle tone: "Dear, Mr. Williams, but He's a very busy guy, and if you're interested in making records, I actually know some music producers."

When Diana heard Dodie Fayed's words, she immediately realized that he and Eric seemed to have a bit of a tit-for-tat meaning, with a faint blush on her face, and shook her head: "Forget it, I actually sing very badly. "

After chatting like this, on the stage of the banquet hall, with the end of a dance song, the host came to the stage to introduce Christina's next performance. Amid the applause of the guests, the girl walked to the stage, and the lights in the hall were dimmed. down.

There were also some people at the reception who had seen Casino Royale and recognized Christina on the stage. Many people showed surprise.

Obviously doubt that the small vase in Casino Royale can sing the kind of charm of nn.

Eric is not worried about this in the slightest. Although she is from Ye Luzi, there are very few people in the music circle who can surpass Christina in terms of singing skills alone. Although this girl is better at treble, her bass level is very low. It definitely surpasses most professional singers.

Sure enough, after the slow prelude, when a hoarse voice with a slightly decadent voice sounded in the hall, those who were originally skeptical all showed expressions of surprise. Some people also looked towards Eric, and they naturally knew that Christina came with Eric.

"Oh, it's amazing, really, it's so beautiful, it's unbelievable." Diana sighed in surprise, and turned her head to look at Eric, but immediately turned her attention back to Christina not far away. .

Holding a glass of red wine in his hand, Eric felt Christina's singing, and then he remembered some thoughts in his heart after seeing Simon Fuller just now.

Although the Firefly Group has expanded to a bottleneck, Eric still has no intention of expanding the record business. An industry that is doomed to decline, although in the West where copyright protection is very strict, the record industry cannot completely die out, but now a large investment will only be lost in the future.

What's more, if it can completely replace the traditional portable music player, the future output value of the 3 player can even be worth the entire record industry. All the layouts related to the music field in the Firefly system are for the purpose of giving the 3 player this hardware. Products provide more complete content and functional services. The technical difficulty of digital music players is not too big. Even if the patent barriers set by Firefly Electronics are to be completely bypassed, some well-established electronic giants can launch similar products within two years. However, as long as Firefly builds a complete software and hardware service system around the 3-player, allowing users to experience the convenience far beyond other similar products in everything from acquiring content to purchasing and paying, then other manufacturers want to threaten through similar products. 3 The status of the player is also destined to be wishful thinking.

However, since he thought of the Spice Girls and American Idol, Eric naturally wouldn't let it go.

He has been on the phone with the two heads of Firefly Electronics during the day, and the rr player will enter the European market in the spring of next year. Now that the Spice Girls group is created, if it can achieve the influence of the original time and space, this group can also be of great help to the promotion of rr in Europe.

As for American Idol, or the reality show of Pop Idol, it can not only bring high ratings to the TV station in hand, but also, if the model of bundling with the rr title is further adopted, it can promote this player to worldwide. However, the current production capacity of rr is not enough to support its worldwide expansion, and Eric intends to postpone the production of pop idols. This interval also happens to be able to make the hot girl group.

Of course, if you want to achieve these, you still need a person in charge, and Simon Fuller in front of him is naturally very suitable.

Thinking of this, Eric said to Simon Fuller who was still standing next to him: "Simon, you just said you have a record company?"

Simon Fuller, who was also immersed in Christina's singing, heard this sentence and immediately cheered up, nodded and said, "Yes, Eric, my company is called 19 Entertainment."

Firefly has a record company after all, and Eric naturally understands that Simon Fuller's record company is more similar to those numerous independent film companies in Hollywood. These companies usually choose to be affiliated with some large record groups, and sometimes sell some shares to each other, and then adopt a cooperative approach to package some singers for operation. Since the plan to create a Spice Girl group and pop idol is to be handed over to Simon Fuller, Eric naturally needs to take control of the other party's record company first, so he asks: "Is the equity in this company still in your hands? "

"Of course," Simon Fuller nodded again. 19 Entertainment was founded by him in 1985. However, although it has been operating reluctantly for more than ten years, it has never launched a very good singer, and naturally neither will There are major record groups interested in his small company.

Hearing the other party's definite answer, Eric took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over, saying, "Then, I want to create a band recently, and I need people to implement it. Think about it, if you want, Firefly will Buy your company, and you can run the project."

Simon Fuller respectfully took the business card, but when he thought that once his company was acquired, he would be downgraded from a boss to a wage earner in a blink of an eye. Although he didn't expect too much, he still said: "Eric, I can keep some shares?"

"Shares will not work, but I will give you enough options."

Eric shook his head and said that although Simon Fuller played a very crucial role in creating the Spice Girls and Pop Idols in his memory, he was not only kicked out by the Spice Girls again soon, but in later shows such as American Idol In this way, the creativity of this person should be good, but he definitely lacks sufficient execution ability. In addition, Eric is not familiar with Simon Fuller, so naturally he will not give the other party equity from the beginning.

In fact, Simon Fuller has made up his mind that he will not miss this opportunity. You know, this is Eric Williams. How many people in the world can have the opportunity to work directly with Eric Williams, and how many people are there? Who has not achieved success after cooperating with each other? It would be insane to pass up this opportunity. However, since the request to keep the shares was rejected, he didn't want to be too urgent, and said, "Then, Eric, I'll think about it and reply to you tomorrow."

Eric nodded and said, "No problem, I'll wait for your good news."

The two continued to chat. Christina's singing on the stage ended, and the banquet hall remembered the applause that was many times warmer than the beginning.

As the lights in the hall turned on again, looking at Christina who was walking towards this side, and Diana who was still standing on the other side of Eric, Simon Fuller did not stop, and raised a toast to Eric, go to him.

Listening to the praise from the people around, Christina blushed and walked to Eric's side, but before she could hear Eric's praise, Diana took her little hand and brought it to her side: "Tina, I can't think of you. so smart."

Eric watched Diana talk to Christina intimately, put himself aside, didn't mind, took a glass of wine from the passing waiter, and was about to chat with other guests, Dodie Fayed At this time, he came over.

Looking at Christina's petite figure unabashedly, Dodie Fayed said to Eric: "A very good girl, isn't it?"

Eric raised his eyebrows and nodded, "Of course."

"In that case," Dodie Fayed lowered his voice and said, "Eric, you shouldn't be approaching Diana again."

Eric glanced at the two women, one big and one small, who were hugging each other affectionately. He turned and walked towards the buffet table not far away, where there were fewer people. Seeing that Eric ignored him, Dodi Fayed was unwilling to follow him. Come over, follow Eric's way, take the plate and stir up the food.

Eric put a small cake on his plate. Seeing what Dodie Fayed wanted to say, he first said, "So, are you serious about her?"

"Of course," Dodi Fayed nodded without hesitation, "I'm already planning to propose to her."

"Oh," Eric smiled and said, "Speaking of which, you should have grown up in England, right?"

Seeing that Eric suddenly changed the subject, Dodie Fayed said vigilantly, "Is there any problem?"

Due to its open financial market and special tax system, London is the most popular city for billionaires from all over the world. Many wealthy families from the Middle East and Russia live here most of the time, and many even choose to immigrate. Their children grow up And education is basically in the UK. Therefore, many children of the rich grew up under the influence of British culture, and basically regarded themselves as British. Eric guessed that the other party was probably from the standard London accent of Doddy Fayed. is also like this.

"Of course it's nothing," Eric shook his head and smiled: "But maybe you already think of yourself as a pure Englishman, but some people don't think so."

Dody Fayed shrugged indifferently: "I don't care what other people think."

Eric looked at the other party with pity, and said, "Yes, you may not care, but if you plan to marry Princess Wales home, someone will care, and very much."

Dodie Fayed paused, turned his head to stare at Eric, and said, "Are you implying something to me?"

Eric didn't care about Dodie Fayed's gaze at all, and continued to pick out some fruit salads for himself, and then glanced at the other party, with a bit of a surprised look on his face, as if talking to himself: "Unbelievable. , you can actually hear me implying."

After saying this, Eric left Doddie Fayed, who was a little dazed, and walked towards Christina, sighing in his heart. He still couldn't help but want to intervene. Will not figure out anything.

Looking at Eric's departure, Dodie Fayed's face kept changing while standing at the buffet table. Eric just said that someone as stupid as you can still hear my hint. On his face, although he was extremely angry in his heart, it was difficult for him to let go of what Eric had just said.

After hesitating for a while, Dodi Fayed threw away the plate in his hand, left the banquet hall alone, went to the garden outside the hall, looked around, and then took out his mobile phone and dialed his father, Mohammed Alfie. Ed's phone. Eric's words made him inexplicably feel a strong sense of crisis in his heart, but a few thoughtless words were not enough for him to sort out the clues, so he instinctively felt that maybe he should tell his father. Will take a look at this.

After talking to Dodi Fayed, Eric was not interested in staying at the reception, and after saying goodbye to Diana, he left early with Christina.

Early the next morning, Eric and Christina were sitting on the lawn in the backyard having breakfast when the villa's doorbell rang rapidly.

"Eric, I'll come," Christina, who was sitting opposite, immediately stood up and volunteered to run to open the door.

Eric thought it was Petrich who came over and didn't care.

However, after a while, Christina came over with Diana.

Eric just stood up in surprise, and Diana, with red eyes and a haggard face, asked aggressively, "Eric, did you say something to Dodi?"

Eric felt something in his heart, but he spread his hands innocently and said, "I don't understand what you are talking about."

Hearing Eric's denial, Diana was obviously even more angry, her eyes widened, as if to eat Eric: "You, you bastard, all of you men are bastards."

Eric felt that if it wasn't for the long upbringing, Diana would probably reach out and grab his face. Although the woman didn't move, Eric took a small step back subconsciously and said, "Diana, I really don't understand what you are talking about."

Diana's anger continued, and she said, "Dodi broke up with me last night. He is already on the plane back to Egypt. Now, are you satisfied?"

Eric was inexplicably relieved, but he didn't expect Dody Fayed to be so straightforward, maybe he really underestimated the other party.

However, looking at Diana's aggressive appearance, Eric had to deal with the problem in front of him and said solemnly: "Ms. Spencer, I don't understand what you are talking about, and I am not interested in you and your boyfriend. If If you have nothing else to do, please leave."

"Ha, you hypocritical guy," Diana sneered and looked at Eric with contempt, "Didn't you drive Dodi away to get close to me? Now, you actually let Dodi away. I'm leaving. Ha, it's ridiculous, I just don't leave, and, I'm telling you for sure, you're never going to get it, I hate you, you bastard."

Eric couldn't help laughing bitterly in his heart. He didn't expect this woman to have such a hysterical side. Looking at Diana, who seemed to be in a stalemate with him, Eric had to be patient and said: " As I said, Ms. Spencer, I don't know what happened, you were dumped by your boyfriend and have nothing to do with me, now please leave or I will call security."

Diana didn't seem to care about anything, and raised her voice: "Then you scream, make a big fuss, and let everyone see what you bastard has done."

Eric patted his forehead with a headache. Seeing that this woman has the ability to face me face to face, he was also angry. Although it will never be possible to say it clearly, it should be regarded as saving her life, so what is going on now.

After looking at Diana for a moment, Eric lost his patience and threw the coffee cup he had just forgotten to put down on the table next to him, and suddenly took two steps forward. Before Diana could react, he carried the woman away. Get up and walk outside.

"Ah, you bastard, what are you going to do, let me down, help," Diana felt the world spin in front of her eyes, realized her situation, and immediately struggled violently, screaming for help while still struggling in Ai Rui K thumped in the back.

However, how could the petite and frail little woman compete with Eric, and in a blink of an eye, the two of them had already passed through the villa and came to the front yard.

When Diana's driver heard the voice and ran in with a surprised look, Eric walked to the gate, took the woman off his shoulders, and threw it on the lawn outside the gate.

Ignoring the frantic voice of the woman outside the gate, Eric drove the driver out as well, closed the gate, and then said to Christina who ran out: "Call the security, and don't let this woman in in the future." To be continued.
