I’m in Hollywood

Three hundred and fourteenth chapter self-defeating

Francis Coppola retracted his gaze and introduced: Eric, there is a garden there. If you are interested, you can go and have a look later. There are ornamental plants transplanted from the jungles of South America.

No, no, I really want to see an acquaintance, but I may have made a mistake, Eric recalled the figure that flashed by, as if he was holding a bald middle-aged man, so, 80% It was a mistake, an arrogant little girl like her...

Shaking his head, Eric didn't say anything else, made an okay expression to everyone, and continued to walk towards the villa.

...

Tony Brandt, who had been courting Jennifer Connelly all the time, heard the vague applause from the entrance of the manor, and inquired about the people around him, and soon returned to Jennifer Connors: It turned out that It's Eric Williams, that young, over-the-top director, I really didn't expect it.

The middle man seemed to be sighing with emotion, not realizing that the girl next to him heard the name Eric, the goblet in his hand almost fell to the ground, and his mood became flustered.

Miss Connery,

Do you know Eric Williams, that's a very amazing young man. In less than two years, he has made a big name in Hollywood. Being kissed by a lucky woman can't explain his good luck. Like the illegitimate child of the goddess of luck, said here, Tony Brandt seemed to think his words were funny, and laughed to himself.

Jennifer Connelly couldn't smile, she held the goblet in her hand and lowered her eyes slightly. A series of numbers flashed clearly in her mind. It was the phone number that Eric left her, but. But she only called once, nine months ago, when Dark War was released. She regretted it.

But that time, the phone just went unanswered. She didn't leave a message either.

After that, as Eric's fame in Hollywood grew, the pride and inferiority in her heart made her never have the courage to make that call again. She felt that as long as this was the only way, she seemed to be able to hold on to it. what.

At the beginning of the year, the scandal started with Eric and the girls, and she was also involved at the beginning.

but. Later, the media's attention focused on several Hollywood actresses who had already gained fame by virtue of Eric. She, like those actresses who had only had brief contact with Eric, was in the big news reports. , is just regarded as a name, mixed in a long list of names, it seems so inconspicuous.

It is estimated that this is also the case. The middle-aged man next to him will ask himself if he knows Eric Williams.

Oh, that's ridiculous. Now there's that guy in Hollywood who doesn't know that... guy.

Soon, Jennifer Connelly saw Eric walking side by side with Francis Coppola. He was still the same as he was a year ago. However, there seems to be another woman beside him.

Although the woman was not as pretty as herself, she was tall and looked four inches taller than her. However, Jennifer Connelly forced herself to give birth to a faint and fragile sense of superiority in her heart. At least, she kept it, but they fell, yes. That's it.

She was thinking wildly in her flustered head, but Tony Brandt, who was beside her, was contemplating whether or not to come forward and get acquainted. But look at the situation on the other side, because Francis Coppola is by Eric's side. None of the people around came up, and it was Francis Coppola who took the initiative to introduce Eric. Obviously, he had not reached the point where Francis Coppola took the initiative to introduce him.

Perhaps, standing closer, Coppola would casually mention himself.

Seeing that Eric occasionally took out his business card and handed it to others, Tony Brandt couldn't help but think that if he could get the contact information of Eric Williams, he might be able to send a big one in the future. use.

After thinking of this, Tony Brandt was a little eager to try, but he couldn't summon up his courage for a while.

Jennifer Connelly noticed the eagerness in the middle-aged man's eyes, realized something, and said quickly, Mr. Brandt, I remember that there is a bench in the garden, let's go there and sit.

Ah, this... well, I was a little underwhelmed at first, but when Connery said this, Tony Lambert built a ladder for himself in his heart and climbed down.

The girl was afraid of Tony Brandt's repentance, so she took the initiative to take the middle man's arm, and pulled the other side slightly and walked into the garden. Several benches in the garden were occupied by guests. I sat down near the table where the drinks were placed.

Tony Brandt graciously took two red wines, handed a glass to Connery, and quickly found a topic to chat. The girl seemed a little absent-minded, sipping the red wine one by one, and in just a few minutes, the red wine in the glass had bottomed out.

They had been here for a long time before, but the girl kept a restrained attitude, and only drank two glasses of red wine in an hour. Therefore, Tony Lambert, who noticed this situation, took another glass of red wine and handed it to the girl from the wine counter next to him without a trace.

Jennifer Connelly was immersed in some emotions at this time. Without thinking much, she thanked her and took it again.

A few minutes later, another glass of red wine unknowingly bottomed out.

Tony Brandt finally showed an excited look on his face after seeing the girl take the red wine he handed over again, his heartbeat quickened a lot, and secretly glanced at the deep ravine in the middle of the girl's tube top dress, Tony. Brandt has already started to figure out how to play with the huge softness in the dress tonight.

After a few glasses of red wine, Jennifer Connelly seemed to realize something, but she was already slightly drunk, and a drunk person's defense is always very vulnerable. Therefore, gradually, the girl even began to give up on herself. Although the drinking speed was much slower, every time Tony Brandt handed over a new red wine, she did not refuse.

...

Eric, this is my daughter, Sophia. Sophia, this is the youngest and most outstanding director in Hollywood, Eric Williams, Francis Cooper said after turning around in the villa. Ra introduces another girl to Eric.

Hello, Miss Coppola, Eric's expression did not change at all, and he warmly greeted the girl who looked at him curiously.

Hello, Eric, can you call me Sophia? Sofia Coppola seemed to be more enthusiastic than Eric: I like your movies very much. It's hard to imagine that you are so young.

Eric's expression moved, thinking of the girl's appalling performance in The Godfather 3, and he said, Perhaps, you can also make a good movie, why not try it, I believe Your father will definitely support you.

The girl's expression changed, and she glanced at her father before saying, I can't do it, I'm not a genius like you, I'm still so young. Moreover, my father has decided to let me play the godfather's daughter in The Godfather 3 Now, I think it's better for me to try to develop as an actor like my cousin.

Of course, you should try everything at a young age to find the path that suits you best, Eric continued.

Wow, what you said doesn't sound like your age at all, like an old man, the girl couldn't help saying.

Sophia, don't be so rude, I think Eric is right, Francis Coppola glared at his daughter dotingly.

The girl stuck out her tongue and said still unconvinced, I'm right, otherwise, how could an old man like you approve of his words, hee hee.

Francis Coppola suddenly looked at Eric helplessly.

The girl smiled mischievously, and suddenly said to the tall girl standing beside Eric: This...

My name is Famke Janssen, Famke Janssen introduced himself.

Then, Miss Jensen, can you give Eric to me for a while and let's dance?

The tall slender girl shrugged and looked at Eric: Of course.

Hey, I really think I haven't agreed yet, Eric said with a smile, letting the girl pull himself onto the dance floor.

Will you refuse? Sofia Coppola raised her head and asked, her figure was a little petite, even though she was wearing high heels, she was still ten centimeters lower than Eric.

Well, of course not, Eric shrugged, revealing the girl's waist lightly.

After a while, the girl dancing gently to the music suddenly said, Hey, you seem to be absent-minded?

Is it obvious?

It's not obvious how can I see it? The girl said with a pouting mouth.

To be honest, Sofia Coppola's lips are a little thick. When speaking, the upper lip on one side likes to be upturned, which makes it look even more awkward. Although in the eyes of Westerners, thicker lips are more sexy, but Eric I still think thin lips look better.

Okay, I apologize, Eric said, thinking wildly.

Sofia Coppola tilted her head for a while and asked, By the way, what you just said seems to mean something, can you tell me what you mean?

You want to hear the truth? Eric asked, staring at the girl.

uh-huh.

Eric thought about it, it would be good if the girl could get rid of the idea of ​​​​the classic series of The Godfather. In the Godfather 3 in my memory, Sofia Coppola's performance is really terrible. With Al Pacino, an old Oscar-level actor, to assist, it will give people a strong sense of play. The Golden Raspberry Award is not wrong at all.

Because the two sides didn't have any friendship, Eric just didn't say it in front of Francis Coppola. It is taboo in interpersonal communication.

But now, facing a girl alone, as long as you are more euphemistic, it will not have much impact, and it can even be laughed at afterwards. (To be continued)
