I’m in Hollywood

early morning.

When he woke up, he found Mayer beside him holding the pillow, chin on his arms, and looking at him, Eric smiled, and reached out to hug the girl's body and put it on him, hugging him. Holding her waist, she asked, What are you thinking about?

The body was closely attached to Eric, especially when he was still able to bear the man's lust in the morning, Mayer's face was slightly red, and he struggled lightly. Seeing that he couldn't escape, he had to give up and said softly: Ai Rick, I want to start working at Firefly Electronics early next year.

Eric stopped rubbing his hands on the woman and said, It's a little early, and I hope you go to Nokia?

I know, Mayer said, but I went directly to Nokia to lead a mobile phone R\u0026D department. I was worried that I would not be able to do it well, so I wanted to enter Firefly Electronics ahead of time to gain some experience. I found out that your vision for smartphones involves Most of the core technology is in Firefly Electronics.

If this is your expectation, of course it's fine, Eric nodded slightly and said, However, I suddenly felt that you were trying to escape from me, so I was very unhappy.

I just want to run away from you, Mayer pressed Eric's chest and propped up his body slightly, stared into his eyes, and said, If not, I'm afraid that one day I will be like them. You A very good lover, but also a terrible lover, making women unable to escape if they wanted to.

It's not like this, Eric said, pressing the woman on his body again, You know, many women have escaped from me.

That's because you don't care about them at all, even if you give them a lot of money, even if you are very gentle and considerate, even if you make them big stars, but you really don't care about them, they didn't run away from you at all, they It was abandoned by you, Mayer's finger lightly circled Eric's heart, and said, You guy, sometimes you are really indifferent and scary. So, I plan to run away from you in advance, so that I won't be as pitiful as those girls who were suddenly abandoned by you.

Suddenly feeling like a villain, it looks like I need a good confession.

You were a villain.

I'm just showing my humility a little, don't be so serious.

You rascal.

Oh, I understand, this should be a provocation, Eric hugged Mayer's waist, rolled over and pressed the girl under him, and said, Provocateur, accept the punishment.

Mayer chuckled lightly, curling his long legs around Eric's waist, feeling the man's sudden stiffness, with a little smugness on his face, leaned over and kissed the man's lips softly, whispering : But, Eric, our plane is at nine o'clock.

Then at ten o'clock, Eric reached out and pressed the girl's legs down, relaxed, and added again in a vicious tone: No, I'm very angry now, so, eleven o'clock.

Eric finally flew back to Los Angeles after having lunch in Palo Alto with the female assistant.

Knowing that Eric has temporarily decided to participate in tonight's Oscars,

Nicole called early. She will also attend the awards ceremony tonight, with a similar purpose to Eric. The Mummy 3 will be released in June. Although this may be the last Mummy series of films that Nicole participated in, the girl still performs her duties with due diligence. related publicity obligations.

As for the other women, they might attend the post-Oscar Vanity Fair party, but none of them are in the mood for the ceremony.

Julia has works last year and this year. This year's Never Compromise is still an Olympic film, and it should be shown at the Oscars. But this woman doesn't care more about these things than Eric. In my memory, although Julia was already qualified, she was too lazy to leave her star on the Avenue of Stars.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Nicole and Eric set off together for the Dorothy Chandler Theater in downtown Los Angeles.

From Nicole's residence in Beverly Hills to the city center, it was nearly 5:30. The two of them were in the middle of more than a dozen extended courtesy cars, slowly heading towards the Dorothy Chandler Theater. Proceed to the entrance of the outer red carpet.

A few minutes later, the courtesy car finally stopped at the red carpet entrance.

The car door was opened by the driver, but Nicole pulled Eric again and carefully checked him before letting the man out of the car. Today is her rare public appearance with Eric, and the girl doesn't want to make a mistake.

After Eric got out of the car, he went around to the other side, grabbed Nicole, who was wearing a moon-white dress, and walked towards the red carpet together.

However, as he stepped on the red carpet today, Eric couldn't help frowning.

The Oscar red carpet has always been the most crowded one of the major film festivals or award ceremonies, but today's scene on the red carpet is more chaotic than he imagined. Not only was the crowd crowded together, but the guest seats on both sides also seemed very messy.

ABC TV has always been a regular partner of the Academy Awards ceremony. Although the film school is mainly responsible for the preparation of the ceremony, Eric decided to ask Katzenberg to ask the ABC and the academy executives responsible for the ceremony after the awards ceremony. what is the problem.

Nicole was holding Eric's arm with a smile, and planned to wave to the auditorium on both sides.

However, when she noticed that Eric's bodyguard, Carter Moen, followed closely behind the two of them, there were several bodyguards on both sides of the red carpet who moved forward synchronously with the two of them, and couldn't help pulling the man's body. Arm: Eric, must Carter follow like this?

The most recent assessment by the security team is that I'm more likely to be attacked in public than John Lennon and John F. Kennedy put together. You don't think everyone in the world is nice to me, do you?

Although Eric has never been attacked since his rebirth, except for the incident at the Long Island Racecourse last time, he has never relaxed his security.

Eric is very clear about his situation. The power and wealth he has now is enough to cause too many people to be vigilant and coveted. At the same time, due to the speed of his rise, he never had time to lay a solid foundation for himself that could support the wealth he currently possesses, and he didn't even have an heir who was enough to continue his current wealth empire. Unexpectedly, the situation will definitely get very bad.

Nicole couldn't understand so many things for a while, but when she heard the names of John Lennon and John F. Kennedy, the girl subconsciously glanced around and looked a little nervous, but she was soon in Eric. He pinched his arm lightly and teased, I think you are worried that some girl will jump out of the crowd and bite you.

When Nicole said this, Eric remembered the phone call from Paul Rowland yesterday, glanced at Carter Moen behind him, and wanted to say something. Realizing that the situation was wrong, he had to put aside his thoughts temporarily.

The red carpet this time was really messy, and we had to deal with the guests who came to say hello from time to time. Both Eric and Nicole were squeezed a little impatiently, regardless of the frantic retention of the media reporters on both sides, and the pace came soon. The end of the red carpet.

Seeing Eric and Nicole appear, Nicole's manager, Pai Kingsley, and a director with headphones from abc greeted them together. Nicole had already arranged a red carpet interview in advance.

The front is the last interview point at the end of the red carpet, which is the only more formal interview point that Eric saw today. According to convention, there should be three interview points on the Oscar red carpet, which are set at the entrance, the middle and the end, but Eric did not notice where the first two interview points were. This is also what he was very dissatisfied with this red carpet ceremony. .

Moreover, although I don’t pay too much attention to these things, Eric still remembers the names of several common hosts who participated in the Oscars, such as Robin Roberts, a veteran of the abc group, but at this time there was a tall and slender person on the interview stage. The blond hostess is very young, with a sweetheart-like face, wearing a pink wide-shouldered low-cut dress, and her figure even exceeds that of most actresses on the red carpet.

However, Eric did not appreciate the beauty at all at this time, and his expression was rather gloomy.

Pai Kingsley nodded to Eric, whispered a few more words to Nicole, and then stepped aside, the director of abc motioned to the two of them: Mr. Williams, Miss Kidman, This way, please, you can go up.

Eric took Nicole with one hand and let her on the interview stage, turned to the director and said, Who is the director of this awards ceremony, let him come to see me.

The director of the Oscars is usually the person in charge of abc.

After saying this, Eric stepped onto the interview stage.

The director had just noticed the indifferent face of the big boss, and he had a cautious look. Hearing this sentence, he quickly sent Eric's instructions back to the control room through the microphone.

Mr. Williams, Miss Kidman, hello, I'm Laura Spencer, the live broadcast was still elsewhere. On the interview stage, the beautiful blonde hostess respectfully introduced herself.

Although it is the first time to be in charge of the Oscar red carpet interview, Laura Spencer is not stage fright. If it is other guests, she may take the initiative to make a few jokes. However, she also noticed at this time that the big boss's interest was obviously not that high.

Nicole naturally felt the emotional changes of the man beside her more easily than outsiders, and she chatted with the female reporter in front of her skillfully. The girl secretly reached out with one hand and pinched Eric's waist.

Eric twitched the corners of his mouth and forced a smile.

The director under the stage indicated that we can start here, and the three of them adjusted their positions and started the interview in a serious manner.

As usual, we talked a few words about Nicole's dress makeup today, and the upcoming film The Mummy 3 in the summer of the girl. Laura Spencer was obviously a little scared of Eric, and didn't politely say a few words of blessing until the end. If Eric is lucky tonight, Eric just nodded and responded. The content of the interview was arranged in advance. He only temporarily decided to participate in the award ceremony yesterday, and he was not dissatisfied with the hostess for ignoring him.

After getting off the interview stage, the director of the awards ceremony, Louis Horwitz, was already waiting beside him.

There were camera shots everywhere, so Eric couldn’t get angry on the spot, he just pointed to the red carpet outside and said to Louis Horwitz in a cold tone: “Look, does it look like a group of lost sardines? , I hope the next awards ceremony will not be as messy as the red carpet, and, Eric gestured to the hostess on the stage again, How old is she, is she 18?

After Eric said these words, he didn't bother to look at Louis Horwitz's reaction, so he walked forward with Nicole. Now that he has spoken, Eric believes that at least Robert Egger has to give him an explanation.

I think this red carpet is not bad, Nicole said in a low voice, holding Eric's arm, hesitating for a while, but this sentence was obviously lacking in confidence.

Eric knew that Nicole was trying to persuade him, he shook his head with a smile, and said, Well, it seems that I'm being too harsh.

No, you're the boss, whatever you say is right, Nicole immediately changed her attitude again, looking very indifferent.

Aren't you Julia wearing a Nicole mask?

Nicole asked back with a smile: Do you want each of us to be like Julia?

In no mood.

Chatting in a low voice, the two stayed by the media wall for a while before entering the hall together.

At this time, the outer hall of the Dorothy Chandler Theater was also full of people, and it was a while before the ceremony began, and no one was seated early.

Hey Eric, good afternoon.

Eric just appeared, Harvey came over with the main creator of the Horse Whisperer crew, and Robert Redford's expression when he saw Eric was even more wonderful: Eric, it's incredible, 6 $10,000, now it's $80 million, how did you do it?

It must be a secret, Eric said, knowing that Robert Redford was referring to Blair Witch, which is still in theaters, but I can be sure that next year's Sundance Film Festival, Park City It will definitely be crowded.”

When Robert Redford heard this, he smiled and said, I think so too, but I really don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing for Sundance.

The Sundance Film Festival has always advertised the support of newcomers and independent films. The emergence of the dark horse at the box office Blair Witch will definitely attract more mainstream Hollywood film companies to Park City to seek gold. It is not difficult to imagine that this film festival is destined to become more more and more commercialized.

After chatting with the guests in the hall for a while, Eric finally took time out. While Nicole was chatting with Meryl Streep, he called Carter Moen and whispered: You call Paul Roland, ask where Carmen Keith is now, don't let her go to the Vanity Fair party, well, let's send someone to take her to Pointy Manor.

Although only one woman, Nicole, attended today's awards ceremony, the girls are likely to join in the fun of the Vanity Fair party. Although women's attitudes are basically gloating about Eric being bitten, it's hard to imagine what will happen to Carmen Case at the Vanity Fair party.
