Columbia finally decided to give it a go and release "Dark War" as scheduled, because most executives believed that delaying the film was more risky than colliding with "Batman". Of course, Eric provided another way The publicity program has also played a big role.
In the Beverly Hills villa, Eric stood in front of the full-length mirror and raised his head slightly. Nicole, who had already changed into a set of regular clothes, bowed and carefully tied his tie for him. On the big bed next to him, Drew was lying face down On the top, wearing a white vest and denim skirt, which set off the well-developed figure exquisitely. Under the vest, a slender waist is exposed, the white calf is dangling randomly, and the toes painted with black nail polish are faintly visible , the girl propped her chin up and watched Nicole tie a tie for Eric, although she really wanted to go up and do it herself, but unfortunately... no.
"Eric, can I walk the red carpet with you later?" Drew asked when the tie was tied and Eric put on his suit, with a coquettish tone in his tone.
"No, everything has been arranged, you and Nicole can just enter the venue directly."
"Well, but what if I don't like being with her?" Drew + + also made no secret of his likes and dislikes in front of Nicole. Since the summer vacation, Drew seems to have changed his temper and no longer covers the world. Playing crazy, staying at home very abnormally every day, Eric realized after many days that the girl was preventing Nicole from seducing him, just like now, because of attending the premiere later, Eric Rick wanted to change clothes, and Nicole came to help, so the girl appeared beside the two on time.
Hearing Drew's words, Nicole couldn't help raising her eyebrows, but the girl accurately caught the girl's instant expression change: "Eric, Eric, look, she raised her eyebrows, she is so scheming How about we drive her away."
Nicole finally couldn't help it: "Drew, don't you even have the right to express your dissatisfaction when you say that to me in person?"
"Don't call me Drew, as a maid, you should call me Miss Barrymore."
"Okay, Miss Barrymore." Nicole said helplessly, if Eric wasn't here, the girl's tone would definitely be gnashing her teeth. Drew really messed up all her little calculations. After being together for more than a month, her relationship with Eric has not made any substantive progress, although she always manages everything in the villa in an orderly manner. The life of Drew is taken care of in every possible way, but since Drew's summer vacation, the two of them have almost no time to spend alone together, which makes the girl even have no chance to take the initiative.
"It's so reluctant, it doesn't look like a maid, Eric, let's drive her away."
Eric put on his suit, smiled and knocked on Drew's forehead: "Stop making trouble, if you make trouble again, I will drive you away, go and change clothes."
The girl let out an exaggerated cry of pain, and walked out reluctantly, clutching her forehead.
When Eric got off the car, there was already a sea of people in front of the Chinese Grand Theater on Hollywood Boulevard. Apart from reporters, there were also a large number of movie fans on both sides of the red carpet.
Eric was not surprised to see many girls holding up the posters of "Dark War" in their hands, but it was Cruise's name that was shouting.
Among the main creators of "Dark War", Eric is a director. Although he gained a lot of fame by starring in "Return to Seventeen", he completely put down his career as an actor after that, so he gained fame It also slowly dissipated. In addition, none of his films had a unified style, and he deliberately kept a low profile. It was impossible to accumulate diehard fans.
Hanks has no advantage in appearance. Although he is very famous, he can only be classified as a powerful actor, and his acting career is still on the rise, and he has not gained the same influence as in his previous life.
Cruise is different. From the beginning of his debut to the present ten years, Cruise has always followed the idol route. In the public mind, the image of the popular lover is still very successful. Before Kidman's divorce, Cruise's public persona remained flawless.
Eric doesn't mind the fans' reaction at all. His personal goal is very clear. He never thought of becoming a popular idol, but a big hand behind the scenes in Hollywood. The premiere red carpet has begun to have some small stars walk up from time to time. According to the usual red carpet rules, more important people usually appear in the middle of the field, so Eric did not go directly to the red carpet, but to the waiting area go. A lot of people had already gathered there.
"Congratulations, Eric."
After Hanks saw him, he smiled inexplicably and said something, seeing Eric's confused expression, Hanks explained: "I heard that you got the share of "Home Alone", and "Pretty Woman" was officially released a few days ago. The North American box office of 210 million and the global box office of 530 million US dollars really shocked many people. In addition to the global box office of "Home Alone", your total box office has already accumulated It has reached 1 billion US dollars, and in Hollywood, people with a global box office of more than 1 billion US dollars can count on one hand, shouldn't they celebrate?"
"It's not too unusual," Eric smiled and pointed to Cruise next to him: "The global box office of Cruise's movies has already exceeded 1 billion US dollars."
Cruise heard Eric's words, but he didn't show his previous complacent expression. He smiled dryly, and was very humble for a while: "Eric, how can I compare with you." The global box office of the movies he starred in exceeded one billion That's right, but compared to the huge box office, Cruise himself has received very little benefit from it. Up to now, Cruise's personal assets are only tens of millions of dollars, and Eric has relied on "Home Alone" and The two movies of "Pretty Woman" are expected to get more than 200 million shares. During this time, Cruise can't help being jealous of Eric every time he sees these news about Eric in the newspaper. Luck, and at the same time strengthened his determination to develop in the direction of the producer. During the period when the filming of "Dark War" was completed, the production company established by Cruise had already begun to select scripts.
As the female companion arranged by the organizer for Eric today, Brooke Shields naturally moved to Eric's side after he appeared, and heard the conversations of several men. The girl who had already given up on the refusal changed her mind again, and her eyes on Eric became hot. The unbearable experience from childhood to adulthood made Brooke Shields have an unusual worship and obsession with money. If she has enough money, she can truly live the life of an aristocratic lady with the noble blood of the four countries, instead of taking nude photos for hundreds of dollars at the age of ten, and taking part in a restricted class at the age of twelve "Pretty Baby," not to mention the jeans ad with some raunchy lines.
When the staff reminded the main creators that they could go on the red carpet, Brooke Shields leaned up to Eric and held his arm affectionately. At the same time, she regretted wearing high heels today, which made her look better than Eric. It is also higher, so that the two sides do not look very well matched.
Eric didn't care about this. He felt the softness of the girl's chest with his arm. Although it was very comfortable, he still had to remind him: "Boji, you are hugging too tightly, can you loosen it?"
"Oh, sorry, Eric, I'm a little nervous." The girl excused herself and relaxed a little.
Eric smiled, feeling that the girl's mind was a little strange. The other party grew up in front of the camera since she was a child, so how could she be nervous. However, he didn't bother to delve into this point, and stepped onto the red carpet with the girl on his arm.
