After a brief communication with the guard, the silver BMW sedan slowly drove into Kensington Gardens Avenue, and soon came to Eric's mansion.
The driver opened the door, and Olivia Wilson got out of the car. Mayer, who was waiting next to her, came up to her, secretly looked at the woman who liked to wear black, and said in a respectful tone: "Ms. Wilson, hello, I'm Marissa Mayer."
"Hello," Olivia gently shook Mayer's hand, but there was a questioning look in her eyes.
Mayer made a gesture of invitation and took the initiative to explain: "The boss has gone to BBC TV. He has to record a program in the morning and will be back soon."
Olivia nodded, and followed Mayer into the villa, but instead of sitting down in the living room, she asked, "Have you prepared lunch for him?"
"I have already made a reservation at the restaurant of the Garden Hotel. They will deliver it when the boss arrives home."
"I don't want the restaurant, I'll do it." Olivia took off her black windbreaker and looked at the girl beside her: "Can you help me?"
Mayer subconsciously took the windbreaker from the woman in front of her, nodded and said, "Okay."
Olivia looked around, walked towards the kitchen, and said, "I wonder if there are any ingredients here?"
Mayer helped Olivia hang up the clothes, followed like a little wife, and said, "I can ask them to deliver what you need."
"Oh, thank you."
"You're welcome, this is what I should do."
It wasn't until Eric came back that Mayer struggled a little bit from the emotion of automatically reducing herself to a little maid. She was originally a woman with a strong personality, but she found that she couldn't help feeling inferior in front of Olivia.
perhaps.
Because it's his mother.
She gave herself a reason for that.
After lunch, the female assistant couldn't wait to run away on the grounds of work.
"A very nice girl, but a bit strong, not as good as Carly," Olivia, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room with a cup of coffee in her hand, commented when Mayer left, and looked at the opposite side again. Eric, who hadn't seen him for a long time, said, "Is your hand okay?"
Eric raised his right wrist and said, "It's all right."
"I went to her catwalk and chatted a little bit."
"Her, Carmen?"
"Yeah, I was in Japan last month, watching the cherry blossoms, and she went to Tokyo for a catwalk at the beginning of the month, just in time."
Eric nodded, but felt a little weird in his heart, as if he was a young boy who was secretly penetrated by a shrewd mother to see all the privacy.
Olivia looked at Eric in front of her, and said with a slight smile, "Carly rarely tells me about you, and I usually ask about you."
When Eric heard this sentence, the feeling of weirdness in his heart became heavier, and he took the initiative to change the subject and said: "Well, you, um, how are you doing recently?"
"Very good, I came back a week early, otherwise I can still watch the premiere of your movie in Tokyo."
"You can come over tomorrow too."
"I just asked Mary to prepare an invitation letter for me, but I won't meet you tomorrow."
Eric nodded and wanted to continue, but suddenly he didn't know what to say.
The sense of alienation shown in Eric's subconscious made Olivia feel a little lost. After a moment of silence, she smiled and said, "Eric, what do you want me to do?"
"Well, wait a minute."
Eric said, got up and walked upstairs. After a while, he came back with a computer bag.
Sitting down on the sofa next to Olivia, Eric handed over the computer bag, considered his vocabulary, and said: "This is, there is a video file in it, just in case, if, um, If something sudden happens, you can take it out."
Olivia stroked the leather on the surface of the computer bag on her knee, and her fingertips trembled slightly after hearing Eric finish speaking: "Eric, what do you mean, a will?"
Eric found that it was difficult for him to say words such as wills calmly like Westerners, so he paused, then nodded and said: "Yes."
Olivia reached out and held Eric's hand. Some worries finally appeared in her always indifferent expression: "Eric, did something happen?"
Feeling the coolness of the woman's palm in front of him, Eric persisted for two seconds, but couldn't help but take his hand back, shook his head and said: "No, it's just that everyone does it. I have already made a written will, but you I know, there have been many such things in the past, such as accidental theft, declaration of invalidity, etc., so I hope that there will be an extra layer of insurance at that time."
With his palm empty, Olivia was stunned for a moment, then carefully chased after him, patted Eric on the back of his hand, and said, "Don't worry, I will keep it safe for you."
"Also, the video password is the first 15 digits of pi, each minus one."
Olivia thought for a moment, then confirmed: "203048154247868, right?"
"Um."
"What about the laptop?"
Eric shook his head: "This password is enough."
Windows password, in front of people who know a little bit of technology, there is not much difference between having or not.
The silver BMW car left Kensington Gardens Avenue again, quietly looked at the street view outside the car window for a while, Olivia looked away, and said to the driver in the front row: "Take me to Wilson Manor."
The driver is one of the bodyguards who have been with Eric for the longest time, and he has a general idea of Olivia's identity, so he nodded: "Okay, ma'am."
On Sunday afternoon, the weather that had been gloomy for several days was rarely better. Mrs. Wilson was sitting on the lawn of the manor with her daughter who had just returned home the day before enjoying tea time. An elderly servant hurried over and said, "Madam, Miss is back." gone."
Mrs. Wilson looked at Caroline next to her with some doubts, wondering if she had a second daughter, but she realized it after a while and stood up quickly.
Olivia had already walked over with a computer bag.
"Jane, why are you free to come over today?" Mrs. Wilson smiled, hugged Olivia, and stretched out her hand, "Let me get it."
"Thank you, I can do it myself," Olivia avoided Mrs. Wilson's hand to pick up the computer bag, hugged Caroline again, and then pulled the girl into the castle: "Carly, I I have something to ask you."
"But, aunt?"
Caroline was held by Olivia's wrist for some unknown reason, looked at her mother, but was obediently pulled into the castle.
Mrs. Wilson watched the two men disappear through the door in a daze, and then sighed.
The old servant next to him said: "Madam, do you want to inform the master?"
"No, don't tell James about it."
"OK."
The turmoil around Eric did not have any impact on the outside world.
The next day, from the morning, media people from all walks of life in Europe and even North America began to gather at the Royal Albert Hall in Kensington, where the premiere of "Iron Man" was held.
In the afternoon, there was even congestion on the street outside the Royal Albert Hall, and the city government had to temporarily dispatch patrol officers to maintain order.
At six o'clock, the red carpet ceremony officially began. In addition to all the crew members of "Iron Man", all the main creators of "Bond 19" who were filming also came to join in, as well as celebrities and superstars from all walks of life in London, making the whole red carpet look star-studded.
Poppy Delevingne and several girlfriends specially prepared an extended concierge car for this premiere.
Unfortunately, due to the sudden congestion, the car was directly squeezed into the traffic flow not far from the concert hall. The girls held only ordinary invitation letters and could not pass through the special lane temporarily opened for the red carpet guests. After waiting helplessly for a while, a group of girls had to get out of the car one after another and walked to the outside of the concert hall.
Excited and envious, they huddled among the fans and looked at the obvious ones walking on the red carpet. A girl with Asian descent beside Bobby Delevingne couldn't help but said, "Bobby, you must be bragging. , and said how good his relationship with Eric Williams is, now we can only watch here."
Bobby Delevingne was also a little depressed, but still said: "Ellie, I got five invitation letters, you have the ability to get one and show me."
The Asian girl named Alishan Zhong stared intently at a gorgeously dressed actress on the red carpet, and said, "Of course I can't get it, but I really want to try the feeling of walking on the red carpet."
"Just wait until you become a supermodel," Bobby Delevingne said, glanced at Alishan Zhong Pingping's small body, and said with a smile: "However, I'm afraid you will never be a supermodel .”
Alishan Zhong retorted: "Then you can't do it either."
"I don't want to be a supermodel, I want to be a designer in the future."
"At worst, I'll be a designer too."
"Tsk, I really didn't insist, I'm sure I can't do anything."
Several other girls laughed, and another fair-skinned brunette girl said, "Bobby, can we see Eric Williams later?"
"This, not necessarily," Bobby Delevingne was also a little uncertain, and said, "Eric is very busy."
The black-haired girl said: "I heard that he went to the BBC headquarters to record a program yesterday. It's a pity. My dad happened to be there yesterday. I would have followed him if I knew it."
"It's useless if you go, Rebecca, Eric doesn't know you."
"But I can always ask him for an autograph."
"Bobby, don't you have Eric Williams' number, why don't you give him a call?"
"I just said that Eric is very busy, and I don't want to disturb his work."
"This shows that your relationship with him is not intimate at all."
"certainly not."
"Did you sleep with him then? He's a playboy, I hear."
"Eric is a gentleman."
"Hehe, he must not like your little tablet. I heard that, um, he has that, that complex, and he likes older women."
"It's all nonsense from those tabloids, and even if it's true, so what. I also found that you always like to talk about your father. Does this mean that you have an Electra complex?"
"Rebecca has an inferiority complex, and she always likes to use her father as a backer."
"I'll hit you."
"Ha ha."
The girls laughed and watched the red carpet ceremony for a while, then they couldn't wait to enter the concert hall and find a seat to sit down.
At seven o'clock, the premiere officially began.
Eric brought a group of main creators to the stage to interact with the audience, and the long-awaited film finally appeared on the big screen.
In the Humvee driving on the desert road, Tony Stark, played by Eric, looked cynical and joked with several big soldiers in humorous words. Accompanied by slightly rebellious rock music, he immediately captivated the audience. Into a brisk atmosphere.
When the meme about the cover girl of "Adage" magazine was said, many audience members in the auditorium couldn't help chuckling.
In the back of the hall, several girls sitting side by side chatted in low voices again.
"This description is not appropriate at all," Alishan Zhong said with a smile: "I think he should talk about whether he has slept with all the Victoria's Secret angels."
"Yes, yes, there must be more than twelve."
"Hey, if you continue to speak ill of Eric, I won't take you with me next time."
"Have you noticed that Bobby seems to be very tasty, and he must have been rejected when he wanted to sleep with Eric Williams."
"I didn't!"
"It's so obvious that you don't ask yourself."
"Ha ha."
The girls were chatting, but the plot on the screen had suddenly changed. Amid the loud explosion, a Hummer had turned into a ball of flames, instantly lifting the spirits of all the audience in the hall who had just relaxed.
The shaking scene passed quickly, and the plot flashed back to thirty-six hours ago.
In the following ten minutes, through a series of clips, the film completely portrayed the image of Tony Stark as a cynical playboy. The rivalry between Eric and Natasha Henstridge made the audience feel even more excited Without taking their eyes off, the film critics at the scene were also secretly surprised that Natasha Henstridge's performance was far beyond that of an ordinary vase.
However, what surprised the film critics most was that the film not only caught the audience's attention tightly through the ingenious flashback mode in just 15 minutes, but also showed the audience the whole story of "Iron Man" very completely. Story background, which is difficult for many films.
In addition, many years after "Returning to Seventeen", Eric himself reappeared on the big screen, and the film critics couldn't find anything to criticize.
Some film critics even thought jokingly that this might be Eric Williams' "true performance". After all, Eric Williams in reality is obviously similar to Tony Stark. There are too many similarities.
The plot continued to advance, Tony Stark was kidnapped, and the first Iron Man armor Mark1 was built in a very simple environment, and the plot also entered the first wave of climax.
Fighting, escaping from birth, announcing that Stark Industries will no longer be involved in weapon manufacturing, until the actor meets Vanity Fair magazine reporter Kristen Everhart again and begins to avenge Dr. Ethan's village, superhero attributes Awakening, Tony Stark's character has gradually completed the transformation.
Until the ultimate battle with the villain at the end.
When the whole film is over, the film critics have to admit that although "Iron Man" does not have too many amazing feelings in terms of plot structure, no one can deny that this is a film with a very high degree of completion and a very powerful character. entertainment properties of superhero movies.
Due to the failure of both word-of-mouth and box office of Warner Bros. "Batman and Robin", before the premiere, most film critics were not very optimistic about the future of "Iron Man". Williams played the ticket for the label.
But with the end of the London premiere, "Iron Man" film critics began to lift the ban on a large scale on the Internet and traditional media, and everyone saw a scene completely different from imagination.
