Putting a bunch of newspaper on one side, Eric crossed her arms and looked at the **** the opposite side. In this era, it seems that women like to wear shirts in film and television shows or in reality.
Of course, Eric also likes the dress of women very much, which will make a woman have more different temperament, at least he feels that this look is much stronger than the women who wrapped at sixes and sevens cloth in the future. Too. Moreover, in fact, in Eric's opinion, the shirt is also a kind of uniform temptation, especially when the woman is wearing a wide men's shirt, it is best to have two long legs naked ...
Elizabeth saw Eric staring at himself intently, and the original inattentive appearance quickly converged. His arms were placed on the desk to block his chest, staring at Eric and complaining: "Hey, what are you looking at, squinting? Squinted? "
"Nothing to watch, I was just thinking, you are planning to wear this to work?" Although the girl looks pretty good, it is obviously not the dress that a woman who is going to work should wear
"Of course, what I want to do is your assistant, not an office girl. Do you want me to wear a suit and skirt and high heels to run around with you on the set?"
Eric glanced at the girl ’s small chin gently raised, knowing that she did n’t say much, and shook her head gently, no longer forced, anyway, he did n’t expect how much the girl would help herself, as long as the movie When shoots is able to hand down things as a microphone, the most important thing is not to be random.
"Just do whatever you want," Eric said, looking down at the drawer next to it.
Elizabeth seemed to have won a small victory, and he sniffed with a prolonged nose.
Eric found a document and pushed it to the opposite Elizabeth with the pen next to it: "This is a contract, you sign it, and then you are a member of the crew of" Sleepless in Seattle. "
Elizabeth did not rush to sign it, but read it carefully. Eric looked at his watch, didn't care, and took the newspaper next to it and continued to look at it.
After a while. Eric, who is seriously watching newspaper, heard the **** the opposite side say: "Eric, I signed up. What should I do next?"
Eric put a copy of Elizabeth in a folder and said to the girl: "You can go back now. When the crew sets off to Seattle in a few days, someone will notify you."
"Ah ..." Elizabeth opened his mouth slightly, and soon realized that Eric didn't take her seriously at all, and immediately angrily said: "How can you do this, I protest, if you don't assign me work. I wo n’t leave your office today! ”
Eric scolded, knowing that this would happen, and at first, I should not have agreed to Murdoch.
It was painful how to coax the elder lady away. The office door was knocked open again. The Alan probe came in and glanced at it, saying: "Mr. Williams and screenwriter are all here, waiting in the meeting room."
"Well, I'm going here." Eric nodded and waited for Alan to leave. Only to Elizabeth said: "Liz, you really can't use you here, so you should go home. Someone will inform you when the time comes."
"I will not leave, since you have signed the contract, you should assign me work."
Eric is a little irritable. The thumb of your right hand quickly rubbed a few times on the side of the index finger, and then pointed at the coffee machine next to the finger: "Since you want to work, then give me a cup of coffee."
The girl stopped immediately: "I am not your servant!"
"This is a matter of Director assistant points. If you do n’t want to, go home now and wait for the crew to notify you."
"You ..." Elizabeth glared at Eric unwillingly. A moment later, he grievously stretched his small face and carefully brought a cup of coffee to Eric.
Eric is certainly not in the mood to drink coffee. Looking at stubborn Elizabeth, he had to pick up the phone and press a few times. Speak into the microphone: "Alan, reprint two copies of the confidentiality agreement you signed and send it over."
Elizabeth's expression moved, concealing a hint of cunning, and slightly dropped his head and stood beside him obediently. After a while, Alan sent in two confidentiality contracts.
"This is the confidentiality agreement signed by Alan at the beginning. If it is too long, you do n’t need to read it. As the daughter of Mr. Murdoch, I think you probably know what the content is. It is possible to go to jail. After signing, shoots "Sleepless in Seattle" can follow me during this time, temporarily act as a secretary assistant, and help Alan share some work. "
This time, the girl did not re-ink, and it took less than a minute to turn over a dozen pages of contracts, and she signed her name happily.
"Okay, come with me, and, at least for a few days in Los Angeles, you are not allowed to wear this suit and change to a more formal one."
"I know." The girl did not refute this time, and followed the Eric with joy to the meeting room.
There were eight people sitting in the meeting room at the time, six men and two women, both aged about two 30.
This is the screenwriter team that Eric specially found for the next TV series,
Fox TV Station has signed an initial letter of intent to transfer equity with Firefly these days, and the specific transaction will also be completed within this month. Therefore, before making the last two films of this year, Eric also began to commit to a part of Murdoch Prepare for TV series and a variety show.
In the plan, the variety show will be broadcast in the spring, but the variety show that Eric intends to come out is relatively simple to plan, so it is not in a hurry to produce.
Another TV series will be aired next fall. Although Eric is at the helm personally, but after hearing the average production cost per episode of this American TV series up to 2 million USD, Fox still recommends the use of variable beats for reasons of caution The broadcast mode, but Eric disagrees, not only because he is very confident in this American drama, but also, for theme reasons, if the mode of shooting while broadcasting is used, it will definitely affect the quality of the episode because the production is too rushed. .
Neither party was willing to give in. Eric even let it go. If Fox does not want to take risks, then Firefly can be invested and produced separately, but do n’t even think about splitting copyright. This proposal does not dare to nod and even agree with Barry Diller. Who can Will this TV series be as hot as 《Friends》?
The two sides have been deadlocked for a few days, and finally Murdoch personally made the decision. Since Eric is so confident, Fox of the big industry is not afraid to take this risk, even if the final result is not good, it will only cost more than 20 million That's it. Even this year, Fox TV Station suddenly got 《Friends》, but there will certainly be a loss of tens of millions of USD in the financial report at the end of the year.
Eric is to produce the previous life Fox that is the treasure of the town in the 1990s, "X-Files". In the memory of Eric, this is almost the only American drama that Fox TV Station can handle in the entire 1990s.
However, the ratings of the first few seasons of this American drama are not good. If it is not the support of a group of die-hard fans, the drama will be heated up on the Internet, so that it will exceed the ratings during the rebroadcast. The premiere is estimated to be cut in the first season.
Although the styles of the first three seasons of "X-Files" are the most unique, the audience ratings have also reached the peak of ratings in the fifth season of Fourth Season after changing the style.
In the eyes of Eric, the reason why the ratings in the first three seasons have not been up, mainly because the story has no main line. Although there will be a novel monster or supernatural event in each episode, this state of no main line also leads to the audience. It is difficult to keep the attention on this drama. screenwriter Chris.Carter did not connect the chaotic clues revealed in the previous three seasons until Fourth Season, and began to tell the reader a complete science fiction story concept.
At the beginning, the science fiction drama "X-Files" was very optimistic about Fox, because although North America TV Station has tried to make science fiction dramas, few have succeeded. Therefore, Eric thinks that perhaps screenwriter of "X-Files", Chris.Carter, known as the father of X-Files, did not originally conceive of a complete main line for "X-Files". It is estimated that it has been edited and edited for many years, and the story becomes clear. .
Before planning to make this TV series, Eric also made people find Chris.Carter, intending to let the other party dominate the screenwriter of this American drama. After all, many of previous life's whimsy was conceived by Chris.Carter. Chris.Carter is not obscured. The other party is now making a screenwriter under the Disney. However, after the Eric sent someone to contact with the other party, Chris.Carter said that he was not interested in science fiction and American drama, so he was not willing to accept this job.
This allowed Eric to see the power of the butterfly effect again. The father of X-Files of previous life was not interested in the science fiction TV series. It was ... wonderful.
In the meeting room, Eric pointed to the position at the end of meeting table. Let Elizabeth sit down and came to the top. After greeting each other, after introducing himself, Eric stood up and pointed to Walked by the wall.
Pick up the black fountain pen and quickly write a word on the wall: the-x-files.
"These are all screenwriters who are very good at science fiction movies and TV shows, so you must also realize that I am about to produce a science fiction drama. The name of this TV series is called" X-Files ". >
In the eyes of everyone curious, Eric put down the black fountain pen in his hand and gently patted his hands and said: "So, I will first briefly introduce the background of the science fiction drama I imagined."
"The story almost starts from the origin of life. The universe is so big that we dare not imagine it. Then, in this infinite universe, there are infinite possibilities. Among the hundreds of millions of stars, the planet that can produce intelligent life is definitely not the only one on our earth. The Brett star is the initiator of this whole story.
