America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM

Chapter 178 Theron enters the network (big chapter, asking for leave tomorrow)

Beverly Hills.

After seeing off their friends and guests, Theron and Stuart Townsend set about picking up the pieces.

Remembering Eric's instructions, she said, "Stuart, what happened tonight is for you to imitate a gorilla."

"Eric noticed that you seemed unhappy and he asked me to say sorry to you."

It was okay not to mention it, but when this matter was brought up, the anger that Stuart Townsend had suppressed all night was instantly ignited.

He looked at his girlfriend with wide eyes: "So why did you apologize for him, and why didn't he say sorry himself? Is it difficult?"

Theron was lowering his head to clean up, and before he noticed that he was already angry, he explained: "There are so many people at the scene, and he is the owner of MGM."

"You know what that means. How could he say sorry in public? People like them value face very much."

"Yes, Eric Cooper values ​​his own face, so my face doesn't matter, right? My dignity should be trampled on the ground, right?"

"Tell me, was it Eric Cooper who asked you to apologize, or was it you who pretended to be kind and decided on your own? Are you helping him explain?"

Feeling that the tone of her boyfriend's words was a little rushed, Theron raised his head.

"What's wrong with you Stuart? Why do you look a little angry? Of course Eric asked me to do it. He noticed your feelings and wanted to apologize."

"And his starting point is good. How many people can't get him to be the leading actor in a big production. This kind of opportunity may only come across a few times in a lifetime."

"And it's just an audition. Isn't that what an actor should do? Besides, no one is laughing at you. Others just treat it as a game."

"You are too sensitive Stuart. Although self-esteem is very important, I don't think this matter has anything to do with self-esteem."

The main reason for the disagreement is that the two people have completely different feelings.

Stuart Townsend was first upset by Eric's somewhat intimate behavior with his girlfriend.

Then he was treated like a waiter, and Eric deliberately ignored him to embarrass him. There were many provocative and teasing words in his words, which seemed to look down on him.

These behaviors originally made Stuart Townsend very uncomfortable, until he suddenly realized that he was being treated as a fool during that funny audition.

Are there any public auditions? Won't you be disturbed? Don’t the director and producer need to be present?

It all made no sense, and the more he thought about it, the more it seemed like a joke.

What's more important is that women have been strong and men are weak for a long time, and his career has not improved. The criticism from the media and Theron fans has long suppressed him.

Over time, this kind of depression turns into low self-esteem, and the more inferior one is, the more one's self-esteem explodes.

On the other hand, Theron had a special relationship with Eric, but Eric took the initiative to apologize and expressed his willingness to let him be the leading actor for his own sake.

How can such behavior be a bad person? He is obviously a very good person!

Besides, who is he and who are you, Eric is willing to condescend to apologize to you, what else do you want?

Although this operation is indeed a bit teasing, Theron is now a fan of the authorities and has been hooked by Eric for a long time, so he does not realize this.

And seeing his girlfriend still talking to each other, Stewart's anger became even more intense.

He walked up to Theron in a few steps and yelled: "What's wrong with you? You are my girlfriend? Why are you speaking for that guy?"

"I didn't speak for him, I just conveyed his apology to you. You've always been very sensitive lately, calm down Stuart." Theron hurriedly explained.

"Okay, then tell me, you two are always hiding in the corner and whispering. What are you doing? Is there anything you can't say openly?"

Theron sighed: "So you mind this. Eric brought a friend over tonight. This person admires Kate Winslet very much."

"So he wanted me to help, so I invited Winslet. Do you want me to publicize the matter loudly?"

"That's all?" Stuart Townsend obviously didn't believe it.

"Yes, that's all I said."

"Come on, Theron, do you think you can deceive my eyes? During this period of time, you have been hot and cold towards me, and you no longer care as much as you did before."

"I'm not a fool. I can feel that your heart is moving away from me. What prompted you to change?"

"It's The Devil Wears Prada. It's been going on since you took on the show. Eric Cooper is an investor. Everything is clear."

"He was willing to invest because he was interested in you, and you didn't resist the temptation. Go for the Oscar and listen to what that guy said to the media."

"I did not do this fireworks show. I also asked your family and some friends, but no one admitted it. So the question is, who booked the entire mountain to celebrate your birthday?"

"Such a big deal, I'm afraid it will make the entertainment headlines tomorrow. Just to make you laugh, the MGM tycoon booked a fireworks display in Beverly Hills. It's so romantic, hahahaha."

Stuart Townsend roared like a machine cannon, his face turned ferocious.

Listening to his anger, Theron suddenly felt a little regretful. Maybe he was really wrong and lost.

She should never have accepted Eric's dinner invitation from the beginning, nor should she and her boyfriend have gotten into this situation.

She said softly: "Stuart, please calm down. I'm sorry. I've ignored your feelings during this time. I'm really sorry."

"Is that okay that I will never meet privately with Eric Cooper again?"

The two looked at each other for a while, and Stuart Townsend gasped: "No, if you really want to live a good life with me, let's move to Irving. You can keep this villa or sell it."

"I turned down the "Inception" movie. I knew Eric Cooper would be the director and you would be together for at least two months. I couldn't allow that to happen."

"There is also the drama "The Devil Wears Prada". You can continue to participate in subsequent promotions, but if Eric Cooper will also participate, then I hope you refuse to attend."

The more he spoke, the tighter Theron's brows furrowed.

"Stuart, what do you think of me? Your vassal?"

"I signed a contract, do you understand? What do you think of my career?"

"Or do you want to completely turn me into a little woman next to you? Will this make you taller?"

"I know those remarks in the media make you feel uncomfortable, but I am already accommodating you, and you should also accommodate me."

"Also, do you know that if you break the contract, you will have to pay a large sum of money. What will my peers think of me? Will anyone still ask me to film?"

Feeling increasingly uncomfortable with Theron's rhetorical questions, Stuart Townsend suddenly picked up a stack of plates and threw them to the ground.

Wow!

Broken ceramics splattered all over the floor, and Theron shrieked and backed away in fear.

"That's enough! Is it for money? Because I have no money and my career is not as good as yours, so you think I'm not worthy of you?"

Seeing her boyfriend's hysterical appearance, Theron suddenly felt a little aggrieved.

"Stuart, how can you look at me like this! Do you think I am a vain woman?"

"If so, would I have chosen to be with you in the first place? Do you think there is no other man chasing me around?"

"This year, I don't even wear high heels when I'm with you. What else do you want from me?"

But Stuart Townsend could no longer hear what she was saying. Instead, he seized on the language loophole and shouted: "Wait, shut up!"

"You just said that there is another man chasing you, Eric Cooper, is that guy, right?"

"How long have you been hooking up behind my back? How many times have you been to the hotel?"

"Sorry! I forgot that you don't need a hotel at all. Maybe you can just be on the set. Didn't he guest-star as a director?"

"Have you already been played by him?"

While roaring, the man rushed forward, grabbed Theron's shoulders and shook him wildly. His eyes were bloodshot, like a ferocious beast.

"Tell me! Tell me! Tell me quickly!"

"ah"

Theron was thrown onto the sofa, looking at Stuart Townsend who continued to pounce, with a look of horror in his eyes.

It was a scene she would never forget for the rest of her life and was repeated over and over again as a child, until her mother pulled the trigger.

boom!

Just then, a gunshot brought Stuart Townsend to a standstill.

"Stop! Stay away from her!"

Henta, the family's maid, held Stuart Townsend at gunpoint and hid when she discovered the two were getting into an argument.

Although she has served Theron for almost ten years, this kind of scene is not something she, a servant, should participate in.

But it soon became apparent that something was wrong, and the quarrel had turned into domestic violence.

As a woman, she knew she had to take action.

Facing the black muzzle of the gun, Stuart Townsend raised his hands in fear: "Hunta, don't shoot, I'm just too excited."

Saying that he wanted to go to Raselon, the latter subconsciously avoided it and fled behind Henta.

"Get out! Get out of here immediately!"

"Theron, I was just excited, I"

"She told you to get out, don't you understand?" Henta said viciously while holding a gun.

"Okay, okay, I'll leave now and wait until we all calm down."

Seeing the person leaving, Henta turned off the safety and comforted: "Poor kid, although I shouldn't say it, it seems like he is not suitable for you."

Theron sat on the ground in despair, covering his face with his hands.

After a while, he said softly: "Henta, you should go home first. I want to be quiet for a while."

"Okay, I'll leave this for you, protect yourself!"

Beverly Hills, Cooper's House.

Eric hummed while writing words one by one on the paper.

When these words are connected, they become popular songs.

Now that I have established a record company with McQueen, I can't be a hands-off shopkeeper. I quickly search for the melodies in my mind and write down the popular songs in my memory.

As a person born in the 1990s, what impressed him most was the ten years after the millennium, which was twelve or thirteen years after all.

During this period, Chinese pop music reached its peak, and a large number of excellent singers emerged.

Jay Chou, Xu Song, Xin Xin, Hu Yanbin, Angela Chang, Cyndi Wang, Eason Chan, etc. have created many popular songs.

It's a pity that after the peak, there was an infinite decline. Twenty years later, my hips have stretched to the point where they can no longer be improved.

It was also during this period that English songs flooded into the country in large numbers, as if the country had suddenly opened.

Almost every one or two months there will be a hit song spread in the streets.

Later, there were fewer of them. The main reason is that the music payment era has arrived, and many domestic platforms can no longer provide free prostitution.

The person who started this era is, of course, the most popular female singer in more than ten years, the undisputed global queen Taylor Swift.

At that time, thanks to hair salons, ice skating rinks, QQ Speed, Audition and other channels, many young people could sing a few lines or sing the complete version of the melody and lyrics at KTV.

For example, Beckham's exclusive music, "Because of you" by Kelly Clarkson.

There are also Kelly Clarkson's "Stronger" and Zhang Jie's masterpiece "Reverse War", which many people questioned as plagiarism.

The inspirational and inspirational song "be what you wanna be", Eric often hides in bed and eavesdrops on the ethereal song "burning" from Norway.

Avril Lavigne's hit song "Innocence" also belongs to Avril Lavigne, and If You Are the One made her debut song "Girlfriend".

When Eric entered society and went to nightclubs, he often heard "yeah".

"Lonely" from Ghana, the representative song "free loop" for lovers' reunion.

After the lovers reunite, they will get married, so naturally they want to listen to "Sugar" by Magic Red.

There is one that symbolizes the reunion of lovers, and of course there is also "just one last dance" that depicts the heartbreaking breakup.

After breaking up, you should regret and apologize, and then sing a song "apologize".

After apologizing, everyone should cry on each other's shoulders, and then sing "cry on my shoulder" duet between men and women.

Of course we can’t forget Reddy Gaga’s representative song “Poker Face” and the song “Trouble is a Friend”.

And with "The Fast and the Furious" becoming popular all over the world, or in other words, the movie was inspired by the song, commemorating Paul Walker's "See You Again".

If you don’t sing, you don’t know. Eric always thought that he didn’t have much in his head.

But when I started singing, I realized that those memories seemed to be activated. It turned out that I could sing so many classic songs.

The word "singing" here doesn't mean that he is good at every word. He can remember the climax 100%, but he still can't remember other parts.

But it doesn’t matter, because I remember the melody very clearly, I just need to add the lyrics.

Then just keep changing words and try to find rhymes and rhymes. In fact, it is a bit similar to ancient Chinese poetry.

The worst case scenario is to find a professional to modify it, and it will become popular no matter what you try.

Looking at the "stronger" that he had completed on the paper, Eric slapped his head and laughed out loud: "The genius is actually me!"

I looked at the time and saw that it was already past midnight. I was thinking of finding another song before going to bed, but my phone screen suddenly lit up.

bell

Seeing that it was Theron's call, Eric answered the call without hesitation.

"Theron, why are you calling at this time? What's wrong?"

Faced with the inquiry, the person on the phone was indeed silent.

"Theron, are you okay? Why aren't you talking?"

After waiting for a while, there was still no sound, only intermittent breathing could be heard.

Eric was a little strange and worried. If he called in the middle of the night and didn't speak, something must have happened.

Thinking of this, he stopped delaying and walked downstairs to start changing clothes.

"Theron, just wait a moment, I'll be here right away."

This time Theron finally got a response, a soft "hmm" word.

Beverly Hills is actually not that big, and Eric arrived at his destination ten minutes after the car started.

I originally wanted to knock on the door, but as soon as my hand touched it, the door opened by itself.

Eric walked in and noticed that it was pitch dark inside, with no lights on.

Today's mobile phones have not yet developed a flashlight function, and Eric didn't know where the light switch was, but the dark environment made him a little worried, and he hurriedly walked inside.

As a result, there was a squeaking and rubbing sound, and it was obvious that something hard had been stepped on.

Crouching down, Eric saw that they were fragments of plates.

A bad premonition came to his mind, and he stood up hurriedly and wanted to call someone, but he heard low sobs.

Eric's eyes gradually adapted to the darkness. Through the dim moonlight, he could vaguely see a figure sitting in the darkness at the corner of the stairs.

"Theron, are you there?"

Eric asked as he got closer, walking up the stairs and getting closer, and finally he could see better.

I saw a woman huddled alone in the corner, leaning against the wall, holding her legs with her hands, and burying her head between her legs.

Her golden hair was hanging down, completely covering her face.

Looking at Theron's appearance, although Eric didn't know what happened, he was sure that she must be very sad at this moment.

Without saying anything, he quietly sat down against the wall and stayed with the other person quietly.

In the darkness, only the breathing of both sides could be heard.

After an unknown amount of time, Eric suddenly felt a weight on his body, and Theron was already clinging to his shoulder.

Reaching out to hold the other person in her arms, Theron also hugged him. This was the first time she took the initiative to hold Eric tightly.

"Are you feeling better? What happened?"

Theron shook his head gently: "It doesn't matter anymore. I'm a little tired. Can you carry me to the bedroom?"

"certainly."

Without any effort, Eric picked up the princess. Not long after filming "The Devil Wears Prada", Theron had already lost weight.

With the experience from last time, Eric carried Theron to the bedroom with ease and gently put her on the bed.

Theron's eyes looked at Eric like gems, visible even in the dark.

"Come up and lie with me for a while, I'm a little scared."

"Afraid? Did Stuart Townsend do something? There are pieces on the ground. Did he bully you?"

"Eric, I said it doesn't matter anymore. I don't want to mention a stranger anymore. He is nothing to me now."

With that said, Theron grabbed Eric's hand and pulled him to the bed, where they lay together.

"Eric, hold me, I feel so sleepy."

"Well then good night."

Kissing Theron on the forehead, Eric held her tightly in his arms, and the two slept together in their clothes.

When I opened my eyes again, the sun was already shining on my buttocks.

Yawning, he looked down at Theron, she was still awake.

Eric smiled at first. He realized that he seemed to have taken down Theron in a daze. Of course, it was mainly due to several months of hard work and preparation.

Then he frowned again. Although he was already sleeping on the same bed, he was still wearing clothes. How could he be considered a winner?

Body and soul, I want them all!

That guy Stuart Townsend suddenly came to mind.

"Damn it, I don't know what happened, but it must have been this kid."

"Theoretically, I should thank you for being an idiot and letting Theron see your true colors and make the right choice."

"But emotionally speaking, if I don't teach you a lesson for the woman who touched me, how can you still mess around in the future?"

While thinking about it, Theron snorted softly and immediately opened his eyes, his eyes wide open with a cute and sexy look.

"Eric, have you been awake for a long time?"

"Well, it's been a while."

"Then what are you doing?"

"Nothing, look at you."

"Watch what I do?"

"Because you look good."

Theron laughed unconsciously: "Eric, it feels so good to be able to see you and hear your voice when I wake up."

"Are you inviting me to stay here?" Eric helped her smooth her messy hair.

"No, it's too messy here. I have to clean it up, otherwise it won't be comfortable."

Hearing this, Eric thought: "If you feel uncomfortable, how about I take you to a good place?"

"Now? But I want to take a shower first. You can smell my stinky body. This feeling is very uncomfortable."

"Just be patient for a little bit. It won't be too late for us to wash it when we get there."

"What? Wait, where are you going to take me? The beach? The bathing place? The water park?"

Eric rolled out of bed and picked her up suddenly.

Theron screamed and could only wrap her arms around his neck to ensure her safety. In fact, it was not necessary because Eric held her hips tightly and could not fall down.

Being held in Eric's arms, Theron suddenly felt relieved.

"Is this what it feels like to have someone to rely on? It allows me to no longer have to be a little woman, it allows me to stop trying to please others, and it allows me to wear the clothes and shoes I like."

"Why do I have to love so humblely? Am I a fool?"

When they got to the car, Theron thought a lot in the short distance. Suddenly she looked at the handsome and considerate man in the driving seat.

"Eric, why didn't I meet you sooner?"

Eric smiled: "It's not too late now, let's set off."

The car started and soon came to the boulevard. The two disguised themselves and walked into an apartment.

Eric bought three houses some time ago. One house has been given to Nicole, and the second house will be given to Theron so that they can date in the future.

Click!

When you open the door and enter, you will see that this place has been renovated and turned into a warm little home.

"Eric, is this your house?"

"No, it's our house."

As he spoke, Eric took out a key from the drawer, opened Theron's hand, and placed it solemnly in his palm.

This time there was no hesitation or resistance. Theron put the key into the bag decisively.

"So, am I the hostess here from now on?"

"Yes, now I am going to take the bath with its mistress in my arms."

Now that the relationship has been confirmed, Theron is no longer reserved, and in a few moments, the two of them have been honest with each other.

Wow wow wow

The shower was turned on, and the warm water sprayed on the body, adding more fire to the already passionate emotions.

In Eric's mind, if there was a beauty ranking, Theron would definitely be qualified to be number one in the world.

Her face is like God’s graduation work, perfect from every angle.

No matter how picky you are, you have to admit that her beauty is breathtaking, just like the oldest wine, making people linger and get drunk.

And looking at the beauty he had been pursuing for a long time, the feeling of conquest instantly filled Eric's heart.

Toot toot toot

The charge has been sounded.

The cavalry company charged, and Italian artillery fired wildly.

There are little waves in the Water Cube, and there are sculptures rising and falling on the bird's nest.

Lightly gathered, slowly twisted and wiped, and then picked again, it was a colorful dress at first and then six.

The big strings are noisy like the rain, and the small strings are like whispers.

The bullets are noisy and mixed, and big and small beads fall on the jade plate.

The orioles in Guan Guan are talking about the slippery bottom of the flowers, and it is difficult to go under the ice of the Youyan Spring.

The silver vase was broken, water slurry burst out, and the cavalry stood out with swords and guns.

Don't worry and hate yourself. Silence is better than sound at this time.

The fierce battle lasted for nearly two hours, and then the clouds stopped and the rain stopped.

Both of them collapsed on the ground in exhaustion, leaving only the rushing water filling the surroundings.
