Speaking of the producer's question, Katherine Bigelow couldn't help but say, "Why do you need to find another producer? Actually, I can do it myself."

Eric smiled in surprise and said, "Your proposal is really bold. For projects with more than $50 million, few directors in Hollywood dare to ask themselves to be producers so confidently, and that will often only lose their own director's job."

Katherine also seems to think that her request is a bit too much. In Hollywood, directors are restricted by producers and is a very important rule. The final editing rights of most movies are often in the hands of producers. This can prevent the director from shooting unscrupulously according to his own ideas, thereby affecting the quality of the film, and also prevent the investor's funds from being squandered by the director.

Of course, this rule also has great disadvantages. Many very excellent films, because the producers intervened in editing, were destroyed beyond recognition, and eventually caused the director to be criticized by the audience. Often, many years later, the film company released the director's editing version and the film was renamed. The most famous case is "The Past of the United States" by the famous Italian director Sergio Leone.

After watching the woman make this suggestion, she stretched out her slender fingers and rubbed the storyboard paper in front of her. Eric smiled slightly and said, "Of course, the biggest advantage of Hollywood is that it is easier to adapt than other industries. If you really want to be the producer of "Save the Soldier" in person, ■Changfeng■■■■Literature■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■�

Katherine looked up and asked tentatively: "What about the final editing rights?"

Eric raised his eyebrows: "Hey, woman. Don't be too arrogant."

"Woman..." Catherine repetitively said in a slightly long voice: "You are discriminating. Do you mean that I am a man and you can get the final editing rights?"

Eric stared at Catherine's beautiful face, whose traces of time were not visible at all: "If you were a man, you wouldn't even get the position of producer."

Katherine couldn't help avoiding Eric's hot gaze, "I warn you, little guy, don't do this anymore, otherwise I won't accept it."

"You are starting to lose confidence?" Eric asked back.

"What?"

Eric put on a cool pose, looked at Catherine and repeated, "I mean, you are starting to lose confidence. Are you afraid that you will not be able to stand my...temptation?"

Catherine opened her mouth slightly and stared at Eric's somewhat 'hateful' expression in surprise. She stayed in a little confused for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up, picked up the file bag containing the script and storyboard in front of her and slapped Eric's head a few mercilessly: "Little bastard, narcissist."

Eric took a few strokes without any pain, leaned back on the chair to avoid the woman's attack range, and laughed at the woman's rare appearance of losing her composure.

The two were already sitting in a conspicuous seat near the center of the restaurant. Catherine suddenly stood up and attacked Eric, and immediately attracted all the eyes of the guests who were dining in the restaurant. Feeling these strange gazes, Catherine's face, holding the file bag, instantly seemed to be dyed with a layer of delicate burgundy, mechanically retracted her outstretched arms bit by bit. She put down the file bag in her hand in a hurry, turned around and walked out of the restaurant in a panic.

Eric looked at the woman's back as she ran away. The smile on her lips became stronger. Ignoring the fingers of others, Eric picked up the file bag opposite, got up and followed.

Catherine returned to her room, entered the bathroom and washed her face with cold water. The heat on her cheeks slowly faded away. Looking at herself with a few wet hair in the mirror, the woman patted her face gently, speeding up the flush on her cheeks to dissipate, and muttered to herself: "Damn guy, hateful... little guy."

She muttered to herself in front of the mirror, but the door was suddenly knocked. She took a towel and wiped her face. She walked outside. Thinking that it might be Eric outside the door, he stood behind the door and hesitated for several seconds, she felt that she could not show her timidity just because of his few words of tune, which would make him more proud. Well, she must not make that little guy more proud, and... tempting, so arrogant, so arrogant.

After cheering himself up, Catherine opened the door, but blocked the door and did not let Eric in. Her eyes became cold, and her chin was slightly raised: "What else do you do?"

Eric looked at the proud gesture of the woman being forced to hold up and jokingly handed over the document bag: "Mr. Queen, your stuff has fallen into the restaurant."

Katherine looked at the thing in front of her, but she didn't mean to take it: "Take it to someone else, I..."

Eric stuffed the script into Catherine's arms, and watched the woman pick it up in a panic and wanted to push it back. Eric took a step back and said, "Okay, it's just a joke. Study the script well. Since you want to be a producer, then make a detailed production plan as soon as possible. I'll leave first if I have nothing else."

...

Because this time it is much more prepared than August, Eric does not need to stay in New York for too long. On February 5, Eric returned to Los Angeles after staying in New York for more than half a month. Of course, it is also because many people are prepared this time. Although they invested $2 billion in principal, due to the reduction in leverage ratio and the number of players in the futures market, the profit ratio is not as high as last time. Even Chris made statistics that this time's profit is only about $4 billion. However, with the profit in August, Eric already has a huge amount of funds of nearly $8 billion. This money is more than enough to acquire Disney in full in the future, and perhaps you can do something else by the way.

In Los Angeles, the annual awards season has come to an end since the end of last year. Because of the war, Hollywood's awards season this year is not as lively as in previous years. It is considered as public image, and even the Golden Globes are held very low-key. However, the outcome of the war has been decided, so you can imagine that the Oscars scheduled for March 24 will still be as glorious as Wannian.

Although Eric did not participate in the Golden Globe Awards for Film and Television on January 19, he has been paying attention to the trends here. The two most important works related to Fireflies are "The Love of Man and Ghost" and "Friends". Whoopi Goldberg not only won the Best Supporting Actress in Music Comedy as he did in his previous life. To Eric's surprise, Nicholas Cage, who replaced Patrick Switz as Sam, also won the Best Actor in Music Comedy. However, in Eric's view, although Cage's acting skills are unquestionable, the PR component of this award is greater. In addition to Fireflies' public relations, the Coppola family's connections must also play a big role.

The subsequent "Friends" not only won the Best Music Comedy Series in TV series, but Aniston also won the Best Actress in Music Comedy Series. Unfortunately, Eric did not attend. Otherwise, he would definitely meet the Little Stubborn Girl who hadn't seen for a long time.

Although "The Silence of the Lambs" produced by Elizabeth is recognized as a popular Oscar, and even the limelight is vaguely overwhelming Francescoppola's "The Godfather 3", it does not seem to be very popular with the judges at the Golden Globes. Although the nominations received are almost the same as the Oscar nominations announced later, only Judy Foster won the Best Actress Award, and all the others were lost.

This result made Elizabeth nervous for a while and even called New York to discuss with Eric. However, the public relations focus of "The Silence of the Lambs" has always been on the Oscars, and the Golden Globes are not very important. Moreover, although the Golden Globes are called the outpost of the Oscars, it is not the Golden Globes that can truly reflect the tendency of the Oscars. Instead, it is like the director's union, the actors' union or screenwriters' union. In these awards, "The Silence of the Lambs" has received a lot of recognition, so Eric is sure that there will not be too many twists and turns in this Oscar.

As usual, "The Godfather 3" should be a big threat, because Eric accidentally inserted it. Sofia Coppola, who received a lot of bad reviews in his previous life, voluntarily withdrew from the "The Godfather 3" crew. Francescoppola invited the young actress Winona Reid, who has a well-received acting skills. However, this change is destined to not save the work "The Godfather 3" which seems to be a bit of a doggie.

After all, many people know that Coppola had no plans to film "The Godfather 3", but because the film company run by the Coppola family suffered losses in the past two years, Coppola had to agree to Paramount Pictures to produce the sequel.

It is said that Coppola originally planned to release the film on Easter next year, because Paramount Pictures seemed to urge it, the film was advanced by more than three months. Correspondingly, the sequel is not as good as the first two. So far, "The Godfather 3" has only won 60 million US dollars in box office. According to its current attendance rate, it will definitely not be able to last until the Oscars and enjoy the box office rebound of winning the Oscars. Because of this reason, Paramount is not so eager for the public relations "The Godfather 3". Although Coppola did not make any public statement, he was not satisfied with Paramount's move to forcefully accelerate the production progress and affect the quality of the film, so he was not in much mood to conduct public relations.

Therefore, although the first two movies of the Godfather series won the Best Picture, the quality of "Godfather 3" is completely incomparable to the first two movies, and the possibility of winning the Best Picture is even more slim. Because Eric intercepted "Dancing with the Wolf", there are no movies that can compete with "The Silence of the Lambs" at this Oscar.

After returning to Los Angeles, Eric just asked about this matter a little and devoted most of his energy to the Firefly Reorganization and the preparations for "Tornado".

After all, even if "The Silence of the Lambs" wins the award, it seems that it has nothing to do with Eric on the surface.

As for "The Love of Man and Ghost", although he was nominated for Best Picture, Eric had no intention of public relations at all. Fireflies only invested some energy in the two projects of "Oubi Goldberg's Best Supporting Actress and Best Original Screenplay". Although Brigitte Fonda and Cage both won the Golden Globe nomination, neither of them was shortlisted for the Oscars.

After more than half a year, the development of the special effects software maya hosted by Edcamore has entered the final testing stage. Of course, this is just the 10 version defined by the traditional. The main function is to meet the relevant special effects production work of "Tornado". During the production of "Tornado", we will continue to invest our energy and funds to improve it.

The fluid simulation software that was originally handed over to a research team at Stanford University has been produced and has been connected with Maya and renderman. This software is a tool specially designed for designing fluid special effects such as hurricanes and waves, which can make these scenes look more realistic.

The special effects problem was initially solved, and "Tornado" began the main preliminary casting work. Of course, the heroine Eric had already signed Joanna Pakula, and this could not be changed. However, the hero and the female second character, as well as many supporting roles in the movie, have become the targets of major brokerage companies.

Although many people in the Hollywood circle know that Caa and Eric have some holidays, the third part of "Home Imperials" was stranded because Caa insisted on a huge pay. However, this time, Caa took the initiative to contact Eric, trying to win the role of the male lead and female second female lead in "Tornado". Many people can see that this is Caa taking the initiative to show goodwill, because the Hollywood agency Caa is now in a three-legged situation. Caa is not as glorious as in his previous life. Michael Orwitz also fell outside the Hollywood power list at the end of last year.

If Eric would have been calculating about celebrating Caa with Caa two years ago, he no longer cared about it. His eyes were already on the whole of Hollywood, and Caa was no longer the giant in his previous life that made all Hollywood film companies afraid of it. In the past two years, there have been no rumors that the so-called Caa agent went straight to the senior office of a large film company. Therefore, in the face of Caa's active contact, Eric also generously asked the deputy director in charge of casting to accept the resume handed over by the other party.

Eric's movies have been recognized as a "star-making machine". Every previous movie has almost won a Hollywood superstar. With Eric's production cut, the competition for related characters in Tornado has reached a very high level. After the news of the casting of "Tornado", not only did the other two companies not pull it off at all, but even some second- and third-tier brokerage companies also participated in trying to get some supporting roles. Therefore, as long as the relationship network that is slightly related to Eric is trying to contact Eric himself. After all, Eric has the final right to decide the role. (To be continued...)
