In recent years, although it has invested in the production of one or two original TV series every year and has also increased the introduction of movie content, overall, Showtime TV is far from forming its later style.

When Eric looked through Showtime's program list, he found that the two original TV series played by this TV station last year, one was the science fiction "Comprehensive Memories 2070", and the other was the black comedy "Link's Life". The content of the movie was more like a piece of stuffing together whatever it was broadcast.

But even so, compared with the situation where there was no original program in the early 1990s, Showtime TV was already much stronger at this time.

However, this is obviously still far from Eric's expectations.

In my memory, Showtime became famous by relying on a gay TV series "Gay and Mortal" produced around 2000, but this also made Showtime TV a label as a gay TV for many years later.

Although the West is becoming more and more open to homosexuality, this is just a rather marginalized group after all.

A homosexual element can appear in a TV series, but if this element is completely used as the core of the program and even affects the positioning of the entire TV station in the hearts of the audience, it is definitely not a good thing.

In fact, the most successful TV series in Showtime later was not many of them related to homosexuality.

It is now 1999. It is naturally easy for Eric to find the project "Gay and Mortal", but he does not intend to let Showtime go on the old path. After all, as a completely straight man, Eric really cannot have any interest in similar male TV series.

The American drama promotion season in May has just passed, and Showtime has also determined its program plan for the next year.

However, after a deep conversation with Matthew Blank at lunch, Eric made a decision to cancel Showtime's original annual plan, cut off TV series "Comprehensive Memories 2070" that were completely different from Showtime TV's style, and start to clearly plan the TV station's programs and positioning again.

There are still three months left between now and September's fall period, which is enough for Eric to adjust Showtime.

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon after lunch.

After leaving the restaurant, it was already raining outdoors.

He took the umbrella handed over by the bodyguard and beat the two of them. He felt the girl snuggling tightly beside him. Instead of walking towards the car on the side of the road, Eric asked, "Where are you living?"

Carmen Cath was obviously absent-minded and said, "Upper West Side, I just changed my residence recently."

"Far away?" Eric said: "Or, we'll just walk over like that?"

I thought Eric was about to leave soon, but my heart was a little empty. After hearing what the man said, Carmen Cath nodded immediately and said, "Okay, yes, not far."

So under the guidance of the girl, the two started from 49th Street to the west.

It is still working hours now, and there are few people on the streets of Manhattan shrouded in the rain. Eric deliberately lowered his umbrella and was not worried about being recognized by pedestrians in a hurry.

Carmen Cath enjoyed the feeling of walking in the rain with Eric, and casually said about the recent events. He tried not to see the two cars that were following behind him, and was moved by the men around him for their condolences, but he was embarrassed to bother others with such embellishment.

After walking forward for a while, I came to Broadway Street, and pulled the man to deliberately avoid the Hell Kitchen in front and went straight north.

Manhattan wasn't too big after all. In less than half an hour, the two of them had already arrived outside Carmen Cath's apartment on Ninth Avenue.

This is a red apartment building with about 30 floors. Open the door and walked in with Eric. He took the umbrella from him and hung it in the small storage room next to the entrance. She turned around and looked at the man standing at the entrance of the entrance and walked over and said, "Eric, it's okay, don't change your shoes."

Eric looked at the spotless apartment in front of him and shook his head and smiled, "Even if you don't mind, I mind."

As he said that, he took off his leather shoes and stepped on the smooth floor in front of him.

So he quickly took off his high boots and before he could change into slippers, he searched for the shoe rack at the entrance.

I never thought that he would go to his residence, so I naturally couldn't think of preparing slippers for him.

I was thinking about this, but I just picked out a pair of furry pink cotton slippers on the shoe rack, which was the largest size.

However, he secretly glanced at the man who had already sat down on the sofa. Obviously, the shoes in his hand were still very small, so he had to give up and approached embarrassedly, trying to sit next to the man. His big hands reached over and wrapped around her slender waist, so he bent down obediently and sat on the man's lap, but he didn't dare to look at him, and his face quickly covered with a layer of blush.

After all, it was in the rain. Although they were holding an umbrella, their clothes were still wet. Eric was not used to this feeling. He kissed the girl's thin lips in his arms. After a moment of warmth, he whispered: "Go to take a shower together?"

She nodded, and although she didn't want to mention a certain topic, she asked: "When will you leave?"

"I'm going back today. My new movie is finally being edited. I'm very busy lately."

I was a little disappointed, but I still got up and pulled the man up, took a shower together, and then naturally slumped on the big bed in her bedroom.

I don't know how long it took.

The bedroom was quiet, here was the seventeenth floor. Although you could not hear the rustling sound of raindrops landing on the surface, you could still hear the crackling sound on the glass window.

So I just listened and leaned on the man's chest dependently.

I really hope that time will stop.

But things are always difficult to do as they wish.

The doorbell sound that suddenly came to mind made both of them feel a little surprised.

"Did you invite a guest?"

"No," she shook her head, thought for a while and said again: "Maybe they came to play, some of my friends."

Eric gently stroked the girl's smooth spine in her arms and smiled, "Why don't we pretend there is no one at home?"

"Um."

As soon as she responded, she immediately shook her head and said, "No, Kora has the key in her hand. If I don't open the door, they will come in by themselves."

Eric felt a mermaid take off from his arms and complained half-truely: "I don't even have the keys to your house."

She just smiled and hurriedly put on a dress. She was about to go out when she remembered something, then leaned over and kissed the man on the face, saying, "Can you not come out?"

Eric touched the petite face in front of him and said, "Don't you plan to introduce me to your friends?"

She rubbed her palm against the man's palm, and she nodded and said, "I, I won't be like them."

"Okay," Eric smiled and said, "I'll sleep for a while, you'll send them away before calling me."

"Yeah, thank you."

Eric listened to the stopped doorbell outside and said, "Go quickly, they may have come in by themselves."

Thinking of the leather shoes that Eric still left at the entrance of the entrance, she immediately jumped out of bed.

However, it was obvious that it was too late when I arrived in the living room.

Several beautiful girls seemed to have discovered something amazing, and squeezed into the entrance hall together, while Carolina Kokuva was carrying the expensive custom leather shoes.

“No brand.”

“This should be handmade.”

“There should be a brand too.”

"But it's definitely a man's."

"It's not Eric Williams?"

"The possibility is not great, but this is the worst. If discovered, Carmen will be miserable."

Some girl said this, and her chattering and discussion suddenly became quiet, and then everyone looked at Carmen Cath who had just come out of the bedroom.

Some things are secrets to the outside world, but in the modeling circle, everyone knows them well. But just like any industry, people in the field rarely take the initiative to reveal the secrets in the circle to the outside world. This is a very common unspoken rule.

Of course, rules are always easy to be broken, especially in the current situation.

Carmen Cath suddenly became one of the five spokespersons of Victoria's Secret a few months ago. While envious and jealous, no one would want to pull down the person standing above him, and even if he had the chance, he would not be able to replace him.

Now, if news of Carmen Cath's relationship with other men on his back was spreading, not only would everything she had just obtained disappear, but would even be completely kicked out of the circle.

Everyone was silent for a moment. Carolina Kokuva put down the leather shoes in her hand a little embarrassedly and said, "Carmen, we will definitely not say it."

"But you have to think carefully about how to block our mouths...wow, Eugene, you pinch me...well, sorry."

It was naturally impossible for Carmen Keith to show any special emotions. She came over and picked up the leather shoes that Carolina Kokuva put down, carefully placed them on the shoe rack next to her, and then said, "Why are you here?"

"It's so scary when my apartment and I leaked," Carolina Kokuva looked at her movements and explained, "So, I called everyone, wondering if I could stay with you overnight, that, let's leave now."

Carmen Cath nodded and said, "Well, then I'll send you out. Today, sorry, I'll invite you to play tomorrow."

The girls heard that Carmen Cath had no intention of keeping guests at all, and they all planned to go out, but they could not be too willing to do so. Some people still couldn't help but hesitate to glance towards the bedroom.

Then the bedroom door was opened, and Eric, who had already put on his shirt and trousers, appeared at the door and said, "Carmen, let everyone sit for a while before leaving."

I didn't plan to show up, but when I heard the girls' comments in the bedroom, Eric didn't want Carmen Cath to encounter anything else, so he took the initiative to come out.

Seeing Eric appear, all the girls who were about to go out stopped, with expressions of surprise, surprise or incredible on their faces, which looked quite wonderful, and then looked at Carmen Cath together.

I understood that he must have appeared on his own initiative when he heard the girls' conversation. He felt warm in his heart and nodded obediently and said, "Okay, that's it, everyone come in and sit."

There were six girls in total. After reacting, although they could not help but feel some thoughts in their hearts, they looked like six well-behaved little quails on the surface. They politely greeted Eric. Seeing that he and Carmen Cath were both barefoot, the girls took off their shoes and walked into the living room barefoot.

However, as a carefully selected model embryo by WM, although she did not wear shoes, it did not affect the tall figure of a group of fairies at all.

Eric sat down on a single sofa in the living room, looked at several girls, and easily recognized KK Carolina Kokuva. Although the other five girls also had a vague feeling of familiarity, they could not call their names.

"Eric, this is Cora, and Eugene, Angela, Isa, Erin, Brigitte," Carmen Cath quickly introduced several girls to Eric, and said, "I'll get everyone a drink, Cora, can you help me?"

"Oh well."

Carolina Kokuva was about to sit down on the couch, but she had already stared at the position closer to Eric. When she heard Carmen Keith's words, she had to follow the girl to the big refrigerator in the corner.

Although they were not satisfied with Carmen Cath's very simple introduction, the girls were not polite and came over to sit down.

He grabbed the position Carolina had just taken a fancy to, and the girl named Eugene leaned her body, supported her arms on the armrest of the sofa and looked at Eric, and took the initiative to talk, "Mr. Williams, why are you in New York?"

"Come here, there are some things," Eric said casually, listening to the girl's accent, and said, "Are you Russian?"

"I'm from Kazan," Eugene glanced at Carmen Cath not far away. After getting along, she knew that Carmen didn't like Russians, so she always emphasized that she came from Kazan: "My name is Eugenia Volodina."

The girl clearly stated her full name, but Eric smiled and said, "Kazan Mental Hospital, I know this."

Eugenia followed and said, "Actually, it's not as scary as others say. I went there with my friends when I was a child."
