After the field visit, Frank Gehry proposed to find a place to discuss more details, and Eric directly led the other party to Virginia's small villa not far away. Virginia did not express any dissatisfaction with Eric's behavior as a hostess, but instead entertained Frank and his intern assistant quietly and carefully.

Frank believed that Virginia was Eric's lover, and he didn't show any abnormality. He just felt that this young miracle director would really enjoy life. Virginia was first-class in both appearance and figure. Level, what's more rare is that she is extremely well-behaved and interesting. Such a lover is destined not to cause indifferent troubles to men.

As a well-known master architect, he often comes into contact with the rich and famous who invite him to design houses. He has occasionally glimpsed a lot of strange secrets of the upper class, so he has become accustomed to it. He even saw with his own eyes a top rich man keeping female slaves in his manor, not servants in employment relationship, but slaves in the true sense of the word, because those girls have been trained to have no self-personality and are as obedient as pets .

On the other hand, Frank's intern assistant wandered between Eric and Virginia with curious eyes from time to time. After Frank's stern gaze warning several times, he settled down and lowered his eyebrows to do record work.

Eric bought more than one hectare of land, which is more than 10,000 square meters after conversion, but the Iron Man Malibu mansion he drew based on memory, plus supporting facilities such as a helipad, covers an area of less than 2,000 square meters. Therefore, except for the main building, the design of other places must be handed over to Frank's architectural design company.

Frank Gehry is a master of deconstructive architecture. Many of his designs are unconstrained, so he has received a lot of criticism, but he has also been sought after by more people. After receiving Eric's promise of not limiting the budget, Frank became bolder and proposed a construction plan with granite, special glass and low-alloy high-strength steel as the main materials. This alone directly pushed up the cost tens of millions of dollars.

From Frank's explanation, Eric learned that the above-mentioned expensive materials are usually only used in some landmark public buildings in the city. In Eric's original vision, he planned to turn this mansion into a landmark building in Malibu, and the two parties almost hit it off. As for the money issue, it's not a problem for Eric. Isn't earning so much money just to do whatever he wants.

Talking until the evening, Frank Gehry promised to come up with a few complete sets of design plans for Eric to choose as soon as possible, and declined the dinner invitation tactfully, and left with his assistant.

After getting in the car, Frank said earnestly to the young intern who was driving in the driver's seat: "Scott, in the future work, you will have to deal with all kinds of rich and famous people. It is inevitable to see and hear some things , but you have to remember, if you don’t want to get into trouble, you’d better keep your mouth shut.”

Not only is Scott very familiar with Eric, but he also happens to know Virginia, an unknown actress. Unexpectedly, the 18-year-old director has an affair with Virginia, who is ten years older than him丨Ambiguous relationship, if this matter gets out, it will definitely become an explosive news.

It turned out that Scott had indeed made up his mind to brag to a few friends at a party at night, and he came across an entertainment anecdote. Hearing the stern warning from his boss and mentor, Scott came to his senses and dismissed the idea directly. Even if you sell this news to the paparazzi, you won't get much money, and you may lose yourself this promising job.

"Mr. Frank, I remember."

Frank patted Scott on the shoulder and didn't say much.

In Virginia's small villa, Frank and Frank were sent away. Virginia packed the tea cups and casually asked the little man who was sitting on the sofa reading a magazine: "Eric, you bring the two of them to my house, Are you not afraid that this matter will spread?"

Eric continued flipping through the magazine without looking up: "Don't worry, no."

"That's not necessarily true," Virginia retorted loudly in the kitchen as she washed her teacup, "Frank's assistant seemed to recognize me, and I saw his eyes drift between the two of us more than once. Come and go."

Eric turned his head and asked, "Are you worried about our relationship being exposed?"

Virginia smiled charmingly at Eric: "Of course not, I'd love to have an affair with you, so that I, a little-known little actor, can become a hit."

"Then why are you asking, you should now pray that the assistant sells the news that we are together to the paparazzi." Eric smiled and turned his attention back to the magazine in front of him.

Virginia washed the cup, dried her hands and returned to the living room, sat down beside Eric and said, "I'm thinking of you, don't you have a formal girlfriend, and there is a little loli at home , and now you’re messing with me again. Aren’t you afraid that the media will call you a playboy?”

"Playboy is the goal I've pursued for two lifetimes, and I can't wait to ask for it."

"Oh, don't read it, it's so obscene for a man to read women's magazines," Virginia snatched the magazine from Eric and threw it aside: "Eric, you seem to be sure that the other party will not spread the matter? "

Eric picked up the magazine and turned to the original page. He was very interested in an analysis article introducing women's clothing and personalities, so he blocked the girl's little hand from reaching out again: "Don't make trouble, I told you That's it. Mr. Frank is a very stable person, and he won't talk about it. As for his assistant, have you noticed that the other's suit is obviously a size too big?"

"Huh?" Virginia hugged Eric's arm, her eyes widened with curiosity, this expression was made by a woman who was mature enough to drip, and it was... quite cute.

Eric couldn't help staying on the girl's face for a few more seconds, and continued: "The suit doesn't fit, it's unlikely to borrow it, no one will wear a borrowed suit to work for a long time, it's more likely to be his father's, this kind of suit I happened to do the same thing, which shows that the other party's financial situation is not very good, and I will definitely cherish this job. Frank also obviously noticed the other party's behavior of looking at us, and he will definitely warn the assistant not to talk nonsense afterwards. Can get a master architect As an assistant, the IQ of the other party is unquestionable, as long as Frank reminds him a little, the other party will definitely know what to do."
