Eric held Drew's arm and saw Spielberg talking with an unfamiliar guest standing by the French window facing the sea from a distance, so he walked up. Seeing Eric walking towards Spielberg, the guest greeted Eric and left tactfully.
Eric raised his glass to Spielberg and asked, "Steven, how is the filming of "Captain Hawk" going, I heard that Sony built nine large studios specifically for this film? "
Spielberg did not seem to be very interested in this topic. Although he personally visited Eric and obtained some feasible revisions, just as Eric rejected Spielberg's investment proposal, this script It has a lot of flaws in itself. As the filming progresses, Spielberg is obviously more and more aware of these. Perhaps "Captain Hawk" will not lose money, but it will hurt his personal reputation.
"It's okay, if there is no accident, the camera will be closed in May," Spielberg said, looking at Drew hanging on Eric, showing a smile: "Drew, sixteen years old, Gwyneth has a cameo in Captain Hawk, when are you going to do the movie again?"
Drew said: "I don't plan to make movies anymore, godfather, I plan to learn to be a filmmaker, and I can help Eric in the future."
7∮,
Spielberg has also heard some rumors about "The Silence of the Lambs", but like many people, he attributes this incident entirely to Eric, and does not believe that several women will produce such a movie. Great movie, seriously: "It's not that easy to be a filmmaker, you're young. Not everyone in Hollywood is as good as Eric."
Eric smiled and interjected: "Steven. Actually, the script of "The Silence of the Lambs" was bought by Drew from someone else. Xiao Nizi has a good vision, and the film production is also operated by them. I just helped to read the script a few times."
Spielberg knew that Eric didn't need to lie about such a small matter, looked at the little girl in front of him, and showed a faint look of surprise: "It's really surprising."
Eric patted Drew on the back and said, "Drew, you and Steven haven't seen each other for a long time. There must be a lot of topics to talk about. I'll go socialize with other guests."
Although it is a godfather and goddaughter relationship in name, the relationship between Drew and Spielberg has actually become very weak due to various previous events. If it wasn't for Eric, it would be impossible for Spielberg to attend Drew's birthday party today. Xiao Nizi knew that Eric was asking herself to mend the relationship with Spielberg in order to accumulate contacts for her future development, so she obediently stepped forward to take Spielberg's arm and said, "Godfather, let's go Let’s take a look at the outdoor swimming pool, the air there is very good, and I designed and decorated it myself.”
Spielberg waved his hand at Eric, and walked out following Xiao Nizi's strength with a smile.
Eric watched the two leave. I feel a little hungry, and I'm planning to get something to eat. I saw a chubby fat man approaching very flexibly before the other strikers.
"Harvey, how do you feel tonight, is it easier than those public relations parties?" Eric greeted each other with a smile, and pointed to the long table with a buffet not far away.
"Of course, I don't have to talk to those stubborn old men here," Harvey Weinstein replied with a smile, and when he came to the long table, Harvey helped Eric get a The dinner plate, I also took one, and picked up the food on the plate.
After getting the food, Eric and Harvey found a table and sat down, and joked: "Actually, there are quite a few old men in the association here. If they listened to what you just said, all those efforts will be in vain." .”
Knowing that Eric was joking, Harvey still couldn't help but looked around, relieved, and said, "Eric, you scared me. This awards season, I have spent more than Seven figures."
"I heard that Miramax's release this year was nominated for five of the six best foreign language films, so you're in for a treat."
"It's a pity that there are no important nominations," Harvey shook his head and sighed, obviously very dissatisfied with the result.
Eric smiled, thinking of those in his previous life who invested hundreds of millions of dollars in order to win the Oscar for the best film, but in the end they returned empty-handed. Decades ago, he treated the best foreign language film like a game for himself. Eric was even a little thankful that when he went to film school, he had already missed those generations who were obsessed with European films and focused on winning awards.
Eric wasn't concerned about the movies Miramax released himself, but instead asked, "How's the PR for The Silence of the Lambs?"
Harvey lowered his voice, and said: "The best picture and best director are guaranteed, but the best actor and actress cannot be guaranteed. Although Anthony Hopkins performed very well, he is just a newcomer to the Oscars. The competitors this time are all very qualified old men. Ms. Judy Foster just won the Best Actress the year before last, so there is not much hope this time."
Eric nodded with satisfaction and said, "Just do your best. I still believe in your brother's public relations strength."
Harvey showed a regretful look, and said: "It would be great if "The Silence of the Lambs" was released by Miramax, so that we can formulate a reliable award-winning plan for this movie, and the possibility of winning the best actor and actress Just bigger."
Eric just smiled and didn't answer Harvey's words. Harvey said that, nothing more than implying that he wanted to cooperate. However, Firefly, which has just completed the integration, is Eric's top priority. Even if he wants to cooperate, he will not cooperate with a small company like Miramax.
Harvey also saw what Eric meant, and felt a little regretful. Although the two brothers had figured out more and more ways to publicize Oscar, Eric seemed to have looked down on Miramax.
Since Eric has no intention of cooperating for the time being, Harvey doesn't dare to get too entangled, but just expresses that Eric can contact him at any time if he has the intention of cooperating.
The two chatted casually. After a while, Elizabeth also came over with a plate, sat down on Eric's left, and joined the chat between the two. Most of the topics were still about "The Silence of the Lambs". (To be continued..)
