“A small matter?” Eric dragged the girl to his lap and pinched the baby’s face gently: “Did I cause some trouble?”
“How could it be that I wouldn’t cause trouble! Drew immediately denied: “The thing is like this, in order to buy the copyright of this film, I found a filmmaker.”
“Oh,” Eric immediately understood: “You promised to give the other party benefits, I have no ability to fulfill it, and this benefit must be related to me, right?”
“Eric, you are so smart!” The girl shrank in Eric’s arms and raised her face in admiration.
“Okay, stop pretending, and explain honestly!” Eric couldn’t help knocking on the door of Ya’s head with a sullen face, which caused another struggle and protest.
“Actually, it’s nothing,” Xiao Nizi gave Eric a dose of vaccination before she said, “When I was looking for an agent, a guy named Lawrence Bender happened to be taking his friends at a party. Come up to me, hold a script, and say that they want me to pass it on to you, they want you to invest.”
“They can’t contact me, it’s nothing to find you, that’s a good explanation. But why would the other party think Look for me to invest, there are so many movie companies, the other party’s first choice should be the six major movie companies, even if it is not the sixth major, other second- and third-tier movie companies should also be the first choice?”
Drew smiled and put his arms around Eric’s neck. : “Because you are rich, the newspapers are full of news that you have received hundreds of millions of dollars in share.”
Eric shrugged: “The share of “Home Alone” is running out, and the share of “Fengyue” Get it. If you want to acquire a film company to build a channel, it will definitely be spent soon. The share of “Dark War” will definitely not be spent anymore. I have to save it to pay taxes next year, but I have to pay 35% of the income tax. , After all, I don’t actually have much cash anymore, oh, I just found out that I haven’t saved any money for a year of work in vain.”
The girl patted on the shoulder playfully: “Don’t worry, Mr. Billionaire, I will support you if you don’t have any money.”
“If only a woman told me that in my last life,” Eric sighed with a smile After a moment: “Okay, let’s move on to your topic, what’s that guy’s name?”
“Lawrence Bender, the reason why he wants to invest in you, I think it’s because they are both young, even if the script is good , those film companies wouldn’t trust him and his friends to make the movie. After all, as long as it’s a more formal movie, no matter how small the investment is, it will cost millions of dollars. So, you get it.”
“Then you I agreed, and then let him be your agent… Is he capable of being your agent?” Eric thought of another question.
“That guy is very smart. He also started a film company with his friends. You know, it’s the kind of shell company that paid a registration fee to apply for nothing. There are many film companies like Hollywood. He made a very low-budget film. He was the producer himself, and the friend was the director and screenwriter, but after the production was completed, the film was burnt because of a fire.”
“It’s a pity, Lawrence Bender is the Uh, wait, Lawrence Bender?” Eric raised his voice suddenly.
“Huh?” Drew nodded, not knowing why.
Eric put the girl down from his knees and
pointed to the coffee table: “Spell me his name?”
Although Drew was a little confused, he went to the coffee table, reached out and dipped some water in the tea cup, thinking about it. After a while, she wrote two words on the coffee table with some uncertainty: “Should… it should be spelled like this?” After writing, Xiao Nizi turned her head and asked Ai Rui uncertainly.
Eric covered his forehead, replaced the subtitle O in ‘Laorence’ with a W to become ‘Lawrence’, and knocked on the head of the cute girl at the same time: “I really want to know that you do everything in school. What’s wrong, you can’t spell such a simple name, oh, by the way, I paid such a large sponsorship fee to send you to school, and I have never seen your transcript. I’ll take a look next time. .”
“Hey, don’t you need this?” The girl grinned with a small mouth, as if she was ready to run away at any time.
Eric didn’t pursue it any further. Looking at the name on the coffee table, it was exactly the same as the name in his memory. The reason why Eric didn’t reflect when Drew just mentioned it was because he read English names in his previous life. , is generally pronounced in Chinese, and Drew’s accent is completely different from the English that Eric learned in his previous life, so he didn’t react.
“Drew, what’s the name of Lawrence Bender’s?” Eric asked again.
The girl scratched her head, tilted her head and thought for a while: “It seems like… maybe… what is it called Quentin Tarantino,” Drew asked when he saw Eric’s expression changed obviously. : “Eric, don’t you know them?”
Eric calmed down and didn’t let the girl see more abnormalities, and quickly thought of an excuse, nodded and admitted: “I heard, I Let’s just say that when you just said your name, there was a feeling of deja vu, as if you were chatting with people, and you listened to it as an interesting thing. It was these two unlucky bastards who made a movie together, and the filming was completed. The negatives are all burned.”
Eric didn’t mention who he was talking to, and what he said was very vague, so the girl went back to find someone to verify, but the girl obviously didn’t have any doubts, and she believed it after hearing Eric’s explanation.
“So, you’re saying they want me to invest in their film and leave you the script?” Eric asked.
Drew shook his head: “No, I didn’t ask for it, and they didn’t take the initiative to give it. I wanted to tell you about this first. If you don’t agree, I’ll just send them off.”
“It’s not good, since If you promise, you can’t be so condescending. We will definitely expand the production business in the future. Although they are still two little people, it will definitely have a little impact if you spread the matter about you dealing with them,” Eric once again Sitting back on the sofa, he said, “Just tomorrow. At noon tomorrow, you take them to the set of “Friends”. There will be an hour for lunch between filming at noon. Let them bring the script and let me take a look.”
“Eric, isn’t this too much trouble, what are you doing with them, I think it’s a waste of time, that… Kun… Quentin Tarantino is only in his twenties, what good script can he write? , Which famous Hollywood screenwriter is not in his 40s, why don’t I ask you to take a look at the script?”
Eric smiled: “Have you forgotten, I’m not yet 20 years old?”
“Hehe, I think you are at least forty years old,” the girl said as she leaned over to Eric.
This intuition… is too accurate!
Eric touched Xiao Nizi’s hair, but he was relieved quickly. With such a shrewd temper of the girl, he got along day and night, and it was not surprising to find that this problem of his mental age.
“Okay, that’s it. Bring them over tomorrow, but don’t be late. You know, I’m very busy.
” On Ke: “That, Eric, I’ve finished this matter, is there any reward?”
Eric patted the girl’s back: “Yes, I helped you become a film company, but you still I’m not an adult, so I put it under my name for the time being, and I will transfer it to you when you are eighteen years old. As for the copyright of “Jinyumeng” that I bought, I will put it under the name of this company.”
“Wow, tell me quickly .
, what’s your name?” The girl’s eyes were sparkling.
“Flower-Films.”
“Uh… such a rustic name, can you change it?”
Rustic?
Eric stared at the girl’s baby face, this is the name you gave yourself in the previous life: “How can you be rustic, let me hear it?”
Drew put his head on Eric’s chest, and after thinking for a while, he became a little small. He raised his head in frustration: “Then… let’s go to Huahua Pictures first.”
Eric smiled and rubbed the girl’s head: “Okay, it’s so late, go to sleep.”
The girl grabbed Eric’s arm to stop him from standing up: “No, no, don’t worry, Eric, there is still a month left in the summer vacation. Give me something to do sooner, such as buying another movie copyright. ”
Well…let me think about it, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com will make a list for you tomorrow, go to bed earlier now,” Eric said.
“Don’t perfunctory me, I will do it tomorrow!” The girl insisted.
“No problem, I’ll definitely give it to you tomorrow.” Eric got up and walked to the stairs. Instead of going directly to the bedroom, he walked into the study and saw the girl following, Eric said, “Don’t disturb me. I am, you go to bed first, you always stay up late, be careful you will become ugly before the age of 30.”
“Humph!” The girl frowned and turned to the bedroom unwillingly.
Eric was in front of the desk at the lower left, found a notebook and spread it in front of him, picked up a pen, and remembered what had just happened, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He never thought that Quentin Tarantino, who was known as a ‘ghost’ in his previous life, would come up to him.
Although Lawrence Bender is not as famous as Quentin, the two are actually old partners. A series of Quentin movies are produced by Lawrence Bender.
However, since two guys who should have become famous two years later came together because of their butterfly effect, I wonder if the famous “Reservoir Dogs” and “Pulp Fiction” in their previous lives will still appear. After all, the butterfly effect The influence of the movie is really big, maybe it’s just a difference of thought, Quentin missed the idea of these two movies.
At the same time, Eric is also very curious about what script Quentin will come up with tomorrow.
