I’m in Hollywood

Chapter 211: Self-defeating

Views:

Unobtrusively looking at Rupert Murdoch, who was less than sixty years old, Eric's deepest impression of the media tycoon undoubtedly came from the burgeoning wiretapping scandal in his previous life. Perhaps because of the wiretapping scandal, in my memory, the media chose photos of the other party in a state of embarrassment, but at this time, Murdoch was in high spirits, with his hair combed neatly, wearing rimless glasses, and hanging from the corner of his mouth. Friendly smile.

When Eric looked at the other party, the old Murdoch was also carefully examining the young man who was less than twenty years old. This process did not last for a few seconds, and the two reached out their hands at the same time.

"Hello, Mr. Murdoch, I'm Eric Williams." Although the other party must have seen himself in the photo, Eric still introduced himself out of the etiquette of meeting him for the first time.

"Hello, Eric," Murdoch shook hands with Eric, and then turned to Aniston: "This must be the beautiful Miss Jennifer Aniston, your performance in "Friends" is amazing Bravo."

It was the first time to be praised so much in front of her boyfriend. Aniston showed a slightly shy expression and reached out to shake his hand: "Thank you, Mr. Murdoch."

When Eric and Aniston greeted Barry Diller, the old Murdoch gave his daughter a look.

Elizabeth looked at the intimate couple in front of her, and couldn't help but feel a little bit of a taste in her heart. After realizing her taste, Elizabeth became even more uncomfortable.

But soon, the girl found a reason for her emotions. She felt that she was complaining for Julia. On the plane the other day. She had seen Eric sleeping comfortably on Julia's lap. After that guy wakes up. Julia, whose legs were numb, sat on the sofa for a long time before recovering. Julia was so kind to him, but in the past few days back in Los Angeles, she hadn't seen this guy take the initiative to contact Julia once, and now he appeared with another woman kissing me, what a jerk.

"Hi, Liz, you look so pretty today," Eric greeted Barry Diller. Turned to Elizabeth.

"Hello, Mr. Williams," Elizabeth reached out and shook Eric lightly, as if wanting to keep a distance. Immediately, the girl showed a bright smile and pulled Aniston beside Eric intimately: "Miss Aniston, hello, my name is Elizabeth, wow, your dress is really beautiful. Let's go, I will take You go in."

Elizabeth said. Self-servingly pulling Aniston and walking in, the little girl looked at Eric inquiringly. Although Eric felt that Elizabeth was a bit malicious, otherwise the other party would not have specifically mentioned Aniston's dress, But on this occasion, Eric was sure that Elizabeth would not be too rude, so he nodded to Aniston, and the little girl was obediently dragged away by Elizabeth.

His daughter's actions were completely opposite to what he had explained before, which made old Murdoch a little angry, but he was helpless.

Although Murdoch is busy with his career, he pays much attention to his children because he is almost 60 years old. Although Westerners always refuse to accept old age, they must also consider successors for his media empire. Compared with the eldest daughter who has no career and the two younger sons who are still very incompetent, Elizabeth is undoubtedly the most outstanding one in terms of ability. When the girl was in school, she successfully established a small local cable TV station. It's just that Elizabeth's character is both stubborn and proud, and she always likes to go against him, the father, in many things.

Seeing the figure of his daughter greeting Eric lightly, then pulling the other girlfriend away, Murdoch had no choice but to say to Eric: "Sorry, Eric, Liz is still a little ignorant, we go in."

"Of course it doesn't matter, Mr. Murdoch. In fact, I really like Miss Elizabeth's straightforward character." Eric said politely, and the three walked towards the villa where the party was held.

About 20 guests have already come to the villa, and as time goes by, more people come one after another. In addition to the cast and crew of "Friends", Fox also invited many Hollywood stars to join in the show.

Although Murdoch has been dragged into a rage by Eric these days, it is impossible for Eric to drag the other party to talk about things when he first arrived, so he chatted with Eric in the villa to no avail After telling them to enjoy the party, Murdoch and Barry Diller went to entertain other guests as if nothing had happened.

Only then did Eric find time to look around in the crowd, and soon found Aniston's figure, and at the same time couldn't help but take a breath. That chick Elizabeth is definitely doing it on purpose. Look at the girls who seem to be talking and laughing together, Julia Robert, Brooke Shields, Gabriel, and even Nicole Kidman. up.

Take a closer look, oh my god, and Drew, shouldn't Xiao Nizi be in a boarding school

Seeing this situation, Eric quickly turned around without a trace, intending to stay away, but Nicole, who was just facing him, caught the figure.

A moment later, a girl in a black pencil skirt and high heels appeared next to Eric who was hiding in the crowd.

"Good evening, Eric," the girl approached Eric, less than 30 centimeters away from him, and gently raised the red wine in her hand. It is said that the intimate distance between people is within 45 centimeters, and if it exceeds 45 centimeters, it is at most a friend relationship. The girl will definitely not know this theory. The reason why she got so close to Eric is probably completely self-taught. Sure enough, the girl's actions made several people around look at her and Eric involuntarily. A few glances.

Of course Eric didn't know the theory about the 45cm, but he felt uncomfortable instinctively, subconsciously took a small step back, and asked, "Nicole, why are you here?"

Nicole noticed Eric's backing movement, showing a slightly resentful expression, but did not dare to move forward, explaining: "I am also Australian."

Eric quickly pulled out some memories about the Hollywood Australian Gang from his memory. It is said that the Australian Gang is the most united small circle in Hollywood. However, it's still the late 1980s, and the Australian gang is definitely not there yet. Representatives of the Australian gang, such as Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Cate Blanchett, and Nicole in front of me, are still unknown. Therefore, he can be sure that Nicole's presence here has nothing to do with her being Australian with the Murdoch family.

Although the girl didn't tell the truth, Eric could still guess something. Thinking of Gabriel, he can get along in Hollywood with his little rumors, and as a newcomer, he can get the role of the second female lead in a movie. . So with Nicole as the heroine of his next movie, coupled with the scheming and means to blow up Gabriel's several streets, although there is no work in Hollywood yet, it is sure to have a good time .

After thinking about this, Eric didn't want to delve into it any further. He didn't care how Nicole played tricks, as long as he knew the current affairs in front of him.

"Nicole, you... what were you talking about just now?" Eric pointed to the place where the girls gathered just now.

The girl smiled slightly, with an appropriate but not excessive teasing on her face: "Don't worry, Eric, no one discussed the matter of Miss Aniston's dress, we talked about, um, "Friends", this It's the theme of tonight. Also, it's you, the second lady of the Murdoch family pays a lot of attention to you."

After finishing the last sentence, Nicole blinked narrowly.

Eric couldn't help but drank the red wine to cover up the embarrassment on his face, and then asked, "Is there anything else?"

"No more," Nicole shook her head, and then whispered charmingly: "However, you will definitely not be able to get into someone's bed tonight, Eric, why don't you go to my place?"

"You really have bad intentions," Eric narrowed his eyes and glanced at the girl. Aniston usually has an ostrich attitude towards his flirtatious scandals. So many women who have a close relationship with him appeared tonight. In front of her, Xiaoniu must be very troubled in her heart. If she dared to leave her to spend the night with other women at this time, then wait for a storm.

"Really, am I that kind of bad woman in your heart?" Nicole gave Eric a dissatisfied look. If it hadn't happened to catch the girl's slightly flickering eyes, Eric would almost have thought that the other party was unintentional. Say that sentence.

"Do me a favor, Nicole," Eric said after a moment's thought.

Seeing the girl's interested expression, Eric continued: "Go and help me keep an eye on Jenny. Jenny is simple-minded, and you can definitely make her happy with ease."

"Ah!" Nicole opened her eyes wide and protested, "I don't want it."

Eric glanced at the girl, and said solemnly: "Don't refuse, and one more thing, be optimistic about Drew, and don't let the two of them fight."

Every time I think of the fight between the two girls, Eric has lingering fears. The two girls have a certain degree of atavism when they fight. In layman's terms, they like to scratch people with their small claws. It will be miserable.

Nicole has stayed in Eric's villa for so long, and she is very clear about Drew's surly and changeable personality. That little girl's heart is not much worse than her own. When she got up, how could she stop her, thinking of these girls, she shook her head again, with a bitter face and a faint pleading tone: "This is too difficult, Eric."

Eric took a sip of the red wine as if nothing had happened, and said in a flat but unquestionable tone: "Go, if the two of them get into trouble tonight, you don't have to act in "Sleepless in Seattle."

Nicole could tell that Eric was not joking, and lamented in her heart that I had provoked someone, but she didn't dare to dawdle any longer, turned around and walked away quickly stepping on her small leather shoes. (To be continued..)
