More than two hours later, in a hairdressing salon in Beverly Hills, Nicole looked at her new image in the mirror, and then understood why Eric disliked her. At this time, the woman in the mirror was completely different from before. For the two of them, if the original image was a pretty chick, now it is completely a glamorous modern girl.

The hair of the girl in the mirror has been dyed a beautiful golden brown, and the rustic fluffy curly hair has also been straightened, with a bunch of oblique bangs on her forehead. This hairstyle makes the girl look more mature and intellectual .

"Miss, compared to the hairstyle you had just now, this hairstyle now makes you look more elegant. Your boyfriend is really discerning." The haircut girl stood behind Nicole and did the final cleaning for the girl, praising her .

"He's not..." Nicole opened her mouth softly, wanting to defend herself. She glanced at the figure in the lounge area behind who was flipping through magazines wearing sunglasses, but stopped talking. It would be great if he was really her boyfriend. But now it seems that the girl feels that she is more like a Barbie doll, letting that nasty guy dress up according to his own preferences, so although she looks much prettier, Nicole doesn't feel too much in her heart excited.

"Sir, do you think it's okay?" After everything was done, the girl got up and walked towards Eric, and the hairdresser followed behind Nicole, looking at the man wearing sunglasses who seemed familiar and asked.

Eric raised his head to look at Nicole, and nodded at the barber girl. The girl's hairstyle was made by Eric according to the hairstyle in the "Translation Storm" in memory. About Nicole in memory Among Kidman's many movies, Eric's favorite is the look of the girl in "Translation Storm", which is intellectual and glamorous, strong and sensitive.

In "Translation Storm", after experiencing a tragic bombing, the girl played Sylvia with scars on her cheeks from shrapnel, wearing a professional suit and carrying a backpack and walking down the stairs, which impressed Eric deeply. If it wasn't for the fact that Nicole's temperament in this shot is very similar to the appearance of Meg Ryan standing across the road and looking at Tom Hanks in "Sleepless in Seattle", Eric would not Give her the heroine of Sleepless in Seattle.

Thinking of Sylvia in "The Interpreter", Eric couldn't help but raised his hand and gently stroked the girl's left cheek, although there was no scar there. Many classic characters can always be deeply embedded in the hearts of movie viewers unconsciously.

The hairdresser took Eric's actions as intimacy between lovers, and pushed away with a snickering smile.

"Eric, are you touching me?" The woman's sensitive intuition made Nicole ask out of nowhere.

Eric withdrew his hand and smiled: "Of course, otherwise what do you think?"

"But I feel..." The girl raised her hand and gestured, but she didn't know how to describe the feeling just now.

"You feel right," Eric said, looking the girl up and down, "You could be Nicole Kidman, or you could be Sylvia Bloom, or Grace Stewart, Gilly Ann Irwin, Alice Haverford, Ida Monroe, Virginia Woolf."

"I don't understand," the girl shook her head in confusion.

"Okay, let's go," Eric didn't explain, he beckoned the waiter to hand over the credit card, and left after checking out. Although Nicole wanted to pay the bill by himself, Eric stopped him.

After finding another restaurant for dinner, Eric drove back with the girl.

On the way back to the car, Nicole was a little silent all the time. She walked into the living room of the villa again, and the girl asked in a low voice: "Eric, do you want me...to show you how to dress again?"

Eric sat down on the sofa and asked, "No need, there will be plenty of time in the future. You must have read the contract today, have you made a decision?"

Nicole nodded with guilt, ran upstairs and took down the two signed contracts. Eric just looked at the girl's signature, then found a pen and signed it, and handed one of them to The girl: "Prepare the script carefully during this time."

After Eric finished speaking, he went upstairs to the study without chatting too much with the girl. He had to get out the script of "Friends", although Jeffrey and John Aniston also proposed to form a screenwriting team, Specially responsible for writing the script of "Friends", Eric only needs to be responsible for providing the outline of the story.

But Eric did not accept this suggestion. Although this is a common practice for all TV series, Eric decided to write all the scripts of the first season by himself in order to ensure the authenticity of this TV series.

After all, no matter how good the screenwriter is, it is impossible to fully understand Eric's intentions, and only Eric himself, who has all the mirror images in his mind, has the ability to fully reproduce them.

Moreover, Eric also intends to make appropriate revisions to the first season based on some classic fragments in his memory, so as to make this season even better. In his memory, "Friends" has the best ratings in the second season. In addition, the most important thing is that the script of the second season is very good. It happened that Eric had watched the complete first two seasons, so he made up his mind to completely integrate the contents of the two seasons to produce a brand new one that fully echoes the flavor of the previous life. "Friends", anyway, according to the rules of American dramas, as long as the first season is successful, the ratings in the future will be guaranteed, as long as you spend more time thinking about the script.

This TV series is also a very important attempt for Eric and Firefly. If they can become famous with "Friends", then Firefly will not worry about selling other American TV series in the future. The market size of American TV dramas is actually not much smaller than the movie market, but because this market is very closed, it will appear silent. If he can successfully break into this circle, Eric will be able to use all the classics in his mind. into real wealth.

The typewriter in the study room has been replaced with the latest IBM personal computer. Although the text editing software is still very backward compared with the previous life, and the operation is quite complicated, it is still much more convenient than the typewriter. Eric also found the previous life in front of the laptop computer. Office feel.

From time to time, the sound of fast keyboard tapping sounded in the study. Every time he wrote a paragraph, Eric would stop and ponder for a while. It was not an easy task to integrate the contents of the two seasons. The impulse to copy the first season of the original version, there is no way, people are lazy.

Nicole knocked on the door of the study with a tray, walked in after getting permission, put the coffee pot and coffee cups on the table gently, saw Eric staring at the monitor intently, and then looked around This large study.

During the day, she also wanted to come in and take a look. She had no other thoughts, just curiosity. Unfortunately, this room is not as easy to open as other rooms, even Drew's bedroom is the same. Nicole also saw Delu's bedroom. A photo of Drew and Eric placed on Lu's bedside table. But this room is an exception. It is estimated that only Eric has the key to the room.

The most eye-catching thing in the study is still the large writing board and the black piano that is incompatible with the scattered style of the study. The writing board is densely pasted with A4 paper, some with rough shot scripts, some with paragraphs of text, some with scattered lines that are completely incomprehensible, and some with square characters. Nicole saw it in Chinatown, so it should be It is a Chinese character, which is said to be the most difficult language in the world to learn.

As if attracted inexplicably, the girl stepped forward and looked at the manuscript paper carefully, and took down a piece of A4 written with Chinese characters and pondered it carefully for a while. Of course she couldn't understand it, but she also saw that the Chinese characters were all It's handwritten, although I don't understand what it means, but it looks very beautiful and has an elegant beauty.

Carefully pasting the A4 paper back to the clipboard, Nicole couldn't help but look back at Eric, who was still typing on the keyboard quickly. This is really a mysterious man. It is said that he is not yet nineteen years old, and he understands So many things, the director will not talk about it, he is also an actor, screenwriter, and has published two best-selling novels.

And in this study room, Nicole discovered that the other party must still know painting and music, and can write that kind of beautiful and mysterious hieroglyphs. It is not an exaggeration to describe him as talented. More importantly, he is still so rich. It is said that he already has a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Women always worship the strong. This is an instinct engraved deep in the genes during the evolution of hundreds of millions of years. Nicole, who was thinking about all this, fell into a certain emotion unconsciously. Eric's every move in the distance is getting more and more pleasing to the eye.

If Eric turned his head and saw the girl's expression, then based on his previous life experience, he would definitely start teasing: "Girl, what kind of nympho are you doing?"

It's a pity that he didn't notice all of this, but was immersed in the conception of the "Friends" script, and he didn't even take a sip of the coffee that Nicole brought in.

The girl looked at the back of the worker silently for a while, and after she came back to her senses, she also noticed the strangeness of herself, a blush appeared on her cheeks unconsciously, and she walked towards the piano in the corner. His slender white fingers brushed the black paint, and took a look at the handwritten score on the piano cover.

"Could it be that he wrote it himself?" The girl stared at the strings of tadpoles on it. Although she couldn't understand it, she also had a very powerful feeling. Her fingers touched the black and white keys unknowingly. , pressed down completely unconsciously.

Ding ding dong dong...

A series of crisp noises came to mind in the originally quiet study room, waking Eric up from the conception of the script.
