In the early morning, in a high-rise apartment building next to the East River on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
Linda Evangelista was leisurely cutting an apple while standing at the kitchen counter. She was only wearing a black tight vest and denim shorts, with a Walkman on her waist. Her tall and slender body was heard through the earphones. The music swayed gently, and occasionally hummed a few times in his mouth, and he seemed to be in a very good mood.
After cutting the apples, he turned around to get the salad dressing from the refrigerator, when he saw Cindy Crawford appearing at the kitchen door at some point, with his body leaning against the door frame, his thick brown hair loose, and his eyes faint. Yes, like a witch.
"Yeah, you surprised me," Linda Evangelista noticed the expression on Cindy Crawford's face, subconsciously took a step back, and leaned against the refrigerator door. After a moment of panic, she quickly took off the earphones pretending to be calm, giggled twice as if nothing had happened, and said, "Morning, Cindy."
Cindy Crawford folded her arms on her chest, looked up and down at Linda Evangelista, and said in the same quiet voice, "This is my vest."
"Ah, ha, we both have the same body shape, hehe, it's very suitable."
Cindy Crawford looked down. "My hot pants."
Linda Evangelista waved her little hand wildly, and said, "Oh, I'm a little fat, but it's okay."
"And my walkman."
Linda Evangelista felt that Cindy Crawford was like a female leopard on the verge of breaking out, shrunk her neck, and said, "You, you won't be so stingy, next time you go to my house, I will take my things with you." You used it."
Cindy Crawford twitched her mouth, straightened up and walked into the kitchen. Linda Evangelista realized something was wrong and was about to dodge. She pressed it against the refrigerator door. Cindy Crawford has maintained a good habit of exercising for a long time. Although the two are similar in size, her strength is much greater than that of Linda Evangelista. Linda was pressed against the refrigerator door by her arm, and she struggled a few times, but it was of no use.
"Of course I don't care about these things." Cindy Crawford stared at Linda and said, "But why do you insist on messing up my affairs?"
"I, I," Linda Evangelista stammered, and said, "I, it's for your own good too. We drank last night. Yes, we drank. I heard that you got pregnant after drinking. There is a high probability that the children on the Internet will be idiots."
Cindy Crawford casually picked up the small soup pot used for boiling milk, and shook her face viciously a few times: "Believe it or not, I'm going to call you an idiot right now. You were obviously making trouble on purpose last night."
"I don't have one," Linda retorted subconsciously, but she didn't dare to look directly at the other party. She turned her head slightly, and her eyes just fell on the soup pot that Cindy was waving.
Do not know why. The darling who was frightened by Cindy's sudden transformation into the Queen of Darkness inexplicably calmed down when he saw the soup pot, but felt a little funny, so he laughed.
"hehe… "
Cindy exerted a slight force on her hand. Even more angry: "You still dare to laugh."
After Linda laughed, she became more courageous and said, "Cindy, let me go, or Eric wakes up, and I don't guarantee that I will say anything."
Cindy's arm subconsciously relaxed a little, but immediately exerted force again, waved the small soup pot in his right hand, and threatened: "I don't care whether you want to eat this meal or not. But if you dare to smash the pot, I'm really sorry." I'll make you look good."
"Okay, okay. I don't say anything," Linda Evangeline Star folded her hands and begged for mercy. She didn't dare to really piss off Cindy, because being hit by that small soup pot must still hurt.
Seeing that she was really subdued, Cindy loosened her arms appropriately.
When Cindy Crawford let go of herself, Linda rubbed her chest, twitched her little nose, stared at Cindy's mouth and teased, "I think what you need to do most now is to brush your teeth first."
Cindy Crawford vented, and the little flame in his heart that was about to go out sprang up again after hearing Linda's words, remembering the situation where he was suddenly pinned down on the back of the head by this bad friend at a critical moment last night , and even more angry. If it wasn't for her, I might have succeeded.
"Yeah, but before brushing your teeth, our good sisters should have a kiss," Cindy said, throwing the small soup pot in her hand aside, leaning forward, holding Linda with both hands like lightning, trying to dodge small head.
Linda Evangelista realized what Cindy Crawford wanted to do, and finally struggled: "What are you going to do, stop, Cindy, I was wrong, I, ummm..."
Eric just walked out of the bedroom after waking up, when he heard the whining sound of a woman struggling, and hurriedly followed the sound, just in time to see the picture of Linda being pressed against the refrigerator door by Cindy and kissing him forcefully.
Standing at the door and admiring it for a while, Eric smiled and said, "Hey, babies, don't you think this is a waste of resources?"
Cindy Crawford heard Eric's voice, and then let go of Linda Evangelista. Linda poohed a few times at the sink, and quickly rushed out of the kitchen, into the bathroom go.
Cindy Crawford tidied up her messy hair in twos and twos, and regained her charming appearance. With a charming smile on her face, she said to Eric, "Good morning, Eric."
"Morning," Eric pointed to the door where Linda Evangelista disappeared: "What are you doing?"
"Oh, she wants to taste yogurt," Cindy Crawford shrugged happily, but suddenly realized something, rushed out of the kitchen, and shouted: "Hey, Linda, I'm here There are spare toothbrush, you are not allowed to use my toothbrush."
After a lot of tossing and breakfast, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.
Eric sat down at the dining table with milk and a dinner plate, spread today's newspaper in front of him, and looked at it while eating breakfast.
A few minutes later, Cindy Crawford and Linda Evangelista walked in with their respective poor breakfasts. The two women had been inking in the bathroom for quite a while, and Eric After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he began to prepare his own breakfast. They hadn't come out yet, and Eric also roughly understood what was going on with the scene he saw at the beginning.
When Linda Evangelista sat down, she felt that the walkman was still pinned to her waist. She took it off and put it on the dining table. She picked up the tableware and picked up the fruit salad on the plate. She noticed the newspaper in front of Eric. . Asked curiously: "Eric, what are you looking at?"
"Last week's box office statistics," Eric replied casually.
"Oh. I remember," Linda Evangelista said suddenly. Glancing at Cindy Crawford, he said, ""Fair Game" was released last Friday. Has it won the box office championship?"
When Cindy Crawford heard this, she looked up at Eric with complicated eyes.
Eric glanced at Cindy, shook his head, and said, "No, the first place is Universal's "Ghost Horse Fairy"."
"Oh, it must be the second place, right?" Linda asked again. A little schadenfreude flashed in the eyes looking at Cindy.
Eric shook his head again: "The second place is Fox's "Die Hard 3"."
"Ah, then...forget it, I'll take care of it myself," Linda wanted to ask, but quickly shook her head, reached out and snatched the newspaper away, browsed through the eye-catching forms on the entertainment page, and quickly exclaimed: "Wow, why are there so few? It's only 6.8 million. It's ranked sixth. This is a new film."
"No one stipulates that the audience must like new movies," Eric glanced at Cindy. Smiling, talking to Linda, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the walkman that Linda had placed on the dining table just now, fixed his eyes, reached out and took the exquisite black music player, and rubbed it in his hand.
When Cindy Crawford heard the name of "Fair Game", she felt overwhelmed. The heroine of this film should have been hers, if it was a success at the box office. It means that she lost a chance to become a first-line actress in Hollywood. Hearing that Linda Evangelista reported the box office data, she was finally relieved.
It grossed $6.8 million in its opening weekend. Ranked sixth on the ranking list, it's not considered a success at all.
Secretly let out a sigh of relief. Cindy Crawford looked up and noticed that Eric was playing with his walkman in a thoughtful manner. It was a bit inexplicable, but he still asked the question he cared about most: "Eric, what were you at the beginning?" Didn’t you know this movie was going to fail?”
Eric didn't take his eyes off the walkman, shook his head and said casually: "I'm not so amazing, but after Joe? I have made a substantial adjustment, so the current result has nothing to do with me."
"How can it be okay, Claudia Schiffer is the heroine," Linda said beside her, "I heard that you helped her snatch it."
Eric said: "Claudia is not short of film contracts, so I don't need to help her grab them, it's just that Warner's asking price is relatively high."
"Then it's miserable now, the production cost is 50 million US dollars," Linda continued: "The first weekend's box office is only 6.8 million, how much will the final box office be?"
"It's about 30 million. It's not too bad. It may be able to pay back in the later stage. "Jurassic Park 2" will be released next week, and other films will basically be eliminated."
What Eric said was taken for granted, and the two women did not doubt that "Jurassic Park 2" had the potential to dominate the box office, and neither refuted it. After all, Cindy Crawford was a little entangled with the original matter, and asked: "Eric, why do you think this film failed?"
Eric replied: "I just glanced at the film reviews, mainly because the completion of the film's story is too low. Although Joe Silver made adjustments to the script, this problem occurred during the production process. , The director wasted too much time on the early stage of the plot, and as a result, the story just started to have a big turning point, and then ended in a hurry. This situation should be limited by the budget, and the director did not finish filming what he wanted to shoot."
Although I haven't watched the feature film, Eric can roughly guess that the problems of this film should be similar to Michael Bay's box office failure "Escape from Clone Island" in his previous life. . One of the major "disadvantages" of the perfect North American film business system is that in most cases, if it is a really bad movie, the audience will not buy it just because you are a big-budget, big-produced star, and they have to rush.
Cindy Crawford was also glad that she had escaped. If she had starred in this movie, even if she was not responsible for the failure of the movie, her acting career in Hollywood would definitely have ended right after it started. However, she immediately felt some resentment in her heart. If she starred in this movie, she might ruin the acting career she just tried to get involved in, but this matter will definitely not have much impact on Claudia Schiffer , with the resources in Eric's hands, if you give her the position of the heroine of a big production, she will definitely be able to easily restore her popularity.
Casually eating the breakfast in front of him, and noticing that Eric still didn't put down the Walkman, Cindy Crawford asked curiously, "Eric, what's wrong with this Walkman?"
"No, it's perfect, it can be called a handicraft."
"and you… "
"I suddenly thought of something," Eric explained vaguely, looked up at the two women, and asked, "What are you going to do after breakfast?"
Cindy Crawford replied: "My team and I are going to the Hudson River today to survey the scenery and prepare for the players to record some VCRs."
"I don't have much work today. The production team is going to purchase some props. I don't need to come forward. Well, I can replace the runway from yesterday," Linda Evangelista said, Suddenly realized something, and said to Eric: "Eric, do you need our help?"
"Come shopping with me," Eric reluctantly put down the walkman in his hand, and said with a smile, "I suddenly thought of seeing if I could buy something. Of course, if you want to change the runway yourself, forget about it."
"Ah, of course you don't need to. Just let others do such small things," Linda Evangelista shook her head quickly, and then looked at Cindy Crawford triumphantly.
Cindy Crawford was a little depressed. Since she had just said that she had a job today, in front of Eric, the big boss, she couldn't be passive and sabotage her work, so she curled her lips depressedly, and asked a little unwillingly: " Eric, will you come over tonight?"
"It depends, I'll go back the day after tomorrow." Eric said uncertainly.
After breakfast, Cindy Crawford hurried off to work. Eric was tossed about by Linda Evangelista for half an hour, putting on a makeup that even he couldn't recognize himself, and the woman painted and painted for half an hour on her own. apartment.
Eric's car had already parked outside the apartment, and the two got into the car. Linda Evangelista just remembered and asked, "Eric, what are we going to buy?" (To be continued .)
