MTL - I’m in Hollywood-Chapter 1129 Little tail

Colin Sosgate was silent for a moment and said: "Eric, these are just the words of your side. I need to see the split scheme of Firefly Electronics first. In addition, what kind of price do you plan to transfer? Pen equity?"

Eric replied: "1.6 billion US dollars, about 20 times the price-earnings ratio, this price is very fair. Similarly, there is no room for negotiation, I still just said, I do not want to waste too much time on the negotiations."

"Cash?"

"Of course, I am not interested in the stock exchange."

Colin Sosgate shook his head: "Baidai can't get so much cash, even if it was the $1.2 billion that sold Viking Records last year, we have all reinvested and returned it to shareholders."

"If EMI releases plans to invest in Fireflyer, I think any financial institution will be happy to provide you with this financing. EMI is currently only 830 million US dollars in debt, counting this $1.6 billion, your debt ratio It will not exceed 25%, and most of the risks of this company are affordable."

"Well, Eric, but I still have to say that the conditions you gave are too harsh and there is no room for change. Even if I am willing to agree, the board will not be able to agree in a short time."

"This is not my problem," Eric shrugged. "But what you said is actually quite right. Firefly Electronics only needs to draw a large record company in the short term. So if EMI is long Hesitant, other record companies have promised, and you will always miss this opportunity. Even if you cooperate in the future, Fireflyer will not give up the shares again."

"Don't you be afraid that EMI will fall to other digital music player camps?"

"I don't think there is any digital music sales platform that can surpass the Yahoo Music Store. If you do that, you will lose only yourself."

After that, Eric waved to the waiter to start serving.

During the meal, Colin Sosgate repeatedly asked Eric for some details, had lunch, and sent Colin Sosgate, which was already 1:30 pm.

The casting of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has been launched in London, and Eric will go to the Firefly Group London branch in the afternoon to check the progress of the project. In addition, we have to rush to the pine forest studio, "Bond 19" has been turned on, the crew was recently stationed in the pine forest studio.

Two identical black Land Rover SUVs have been waiting for the Royal Garden Hotel downstairs. Meyer holds a stack of documents standing by the car and sees Eric walking with Bobby Devay. The two pulled the door open.

Originally intended to send Bobby Devay home, but can not help the girl's pitiful pleading, anyway, it is not too much work that needs to be kept secret, Eric will bring the girl together.

Since the film copyright was directly obtained at the beginning, although the film project was publicly announced last month, the company has been polishing the script of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" for the past two years. The film director also directly determines the original version of the gram. Rees Columbus.

Therefore, the main job of the "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" crew is the casting. If all goes well, the film will be launched in September of the second half of the year and will be released at the end of next year.

The Firefly Group's UK headquarters is located in the Mayfair area on the east side of Hyde Park, not far from the Royal College of Art, and occupies a six-storey building with a classic European style.

In order to give the film ahead of time, the main actors of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" adopted a form of public recruitment to the whole of England.

Since the announcement at the end of last month, this incident has also become the most popular event in the UK in the recent period. In just one month, the crew has received more than 20,000 documents. If the application time has not expired, this figure Obviously it will increase.

Although it was a weekend, Eric came to the branch headquarters with Meyer and the little tail like Bobby Devai, which is still a busy scene.

The crew publicized the role selection without any restrictions, but in fact, if you really read more than 20,000 pieces of information, the selection team will definitely collapse. Therefore, the first round of selection will basically erase those images that are obviously inconsistent or have no performance experience on the resume. Some of the better children will be specially marked.

Compared to the small actors, the selection of adult actors is much smoother, and several roles have been determined.

Determined the director and the script, Eric did not even interpret the meaning of the casting, but also too lazy to look for the original version of the little actor, there are J.K. Rowling and Chris Columbus and other masters personally check, I want to definitely find the most Suitable for three-person roles.

After spending more than two hours at the branch headquarters, Eric hurried away and rushed to the pine forest studio on the outskirts of London.

Because it was the weekend, the "Bond 19" crew did not shoot today. Barbara Brockley personally received Eric, and watched the filming progress together. Eric was in Barbara Brockley at night. At the invitation, I attended a party hosted by the other party.

Back in the city of London, time has passed ten o'clock in the middle of the night.

Like breaking into a completely new world, Bobby Devay is in a faint excitement all day long.

Therefore, although it is already late at night, the girl is not at all sleepy.

The car came to the Belgrade district where the girl’s home was located. It was parked in front of the last house. The driver pulled the door open from the outside. Eric handed a handbag to the girl and said, “Okay, go back. Good night."

Bobby Devay is no longer wearing the long hoodie in the morning. It is a small dress with a beautiful pale yellow Chanel trench coat. It is in the branch headquarters during the day. And when I was at the Brockley House Party in the evening, Eric told him to send it. After all, the weather in London was really unbearable, and Eric could not always wear his clothes to girls.

After taking the tote bag with his hoodie, Bobby Devay pulled La Eric's hand and said, "Eric, can you come in and sit down?"

Eric smiled and shook his head: "I am sleepy, just want to go home and go to sleep."

"Don't be like this, Eric," Bobby Devay was awkwardly and directly put Eric Carat up, and counted down: "You refuse to find a girl who can't find a girlfriend."

So Bala, Bobby Devay has pulled Eric to the steps, reached out and pressed the doorbell, and the other hand still pulled Eric, as if he was worried that he would run away.

The door opened very quickly. A 30-year-old maid opened the door and saw Bobby Devai. She immediately picked it up: "Miss, you are finally back, the lady just called back and asked, and , Hey, Wei, Mr. Williams, good evening."

Eric nodded to each other: "Hello."

"This is Luo Wei," Bobby Devay introduced casually, and took Eric to go inside. After a few steps, he turned back and said to the maid named Luo Wei: "You first Go to sleep, and don't talk in front of my mother."

"Okay, okay, miss," the maid nodded in some hesitation, but turned to her room.

Bobby Devay happily pulled Eric to the second floor and went to a girly bedroom, let Eric sit next to her dressing table and the girl drilled into the dressing room next to it. After three or two, I changed to the long hoodie in the morning, and then ran down the stairs. After a while, I ran up with a pot of coffee.

Eric sat back in the chair and leaned against the dressing table. She looked at the girl's busy appearance with great interest. She took a sip of the coffee she had handed over and smiled. "So so diligent, say good first, but tomorrow can't let again." You followed me."

When Bobby Devay handed the coffee, he retired to the side of the bed and sat down with his hands on his sides. He looked at Eric on both sides of the curtain: "I didn't think so, I am very happy today."

Eric nodded and sent the cup to his mouth and slowly drank the coffee.

Bobby Devay waited for a while and took the initiative to say: "Eric, why don't you talk?"

"Tired, I didn't think about the little girl."

Bobby Diwai laughed and said, "It turned out that you were deliberately yelling at me during the day."

"Yeah," Eric knocked his left hand on the dressing table next to him and said, "This is my day's ‘labor results’.”

"Oh, Mr. Williams, you have already seen it through me."

Eric was not responding. He drank most of the coffee in the cup and placed it next to him. "So, go to bed early, I should go back."

Bobby Devay flashed his eyes and came over before Eric got up, gently pushing the man, sitting directly on Eric's lap, licking his neck and squatting on the man's lips. Then, and then separated, the face has become blushing, but still boldly said: "Eric, I want to do it with you, can we do it?"

"Okay," Eric nodded, holding the girl's waist around her hands and not letting her move. She smiled: "First talk about what you will be?"

The girl’s face has turned into a red apple, and she is dissatisfied: “You are really a bad guy, and of course you are taking the initiative.”

"So, ask you a question, from small to large, what is the most painful situation you have experienced?"

"When I was a child, my finger was caught by the door once," the girl said, laughing again. "Eric, you want to scare me, right? I am not afraid. Some of my good friends have done it. They It’s not as painful as I thought.”

"I don't mean this," Eric reached out and stroked the girl's belly. "If we do, your stomach is likely to grow up. Then you have to run around with a ball." Ten months, the last thing is the most terrible thing. I will expand the pain you got caught in the door ten times. After ten hours, a little guy will run out of your stomach, even in the process. You are likely to die by pain."

Bobby Devay’s eyes flashed a trace of fear, but immediately he said in a tone: “You are scaring me, Eric, you certainly will not allow this to happen, right?”

"Yeah," Eric got up and picked up the girl's light body and placed it on the small bed next to him. "So, let's sleep, come to the premiere of Iron Man the day after tomorrow, bring you Little friend."

Bobby Devay was just a girl’s whim, and Eric’s snoring and 'intimidation’ were not so persistent, lying on the bed, but still holding the man’s hand: “Eric, Can you wait for me to fall asleep and leave?"

Eric laughed: "I am not considerate, I am very tired."

"I am a girl," Bobby Devay said, raising his mouth. "The boy certainly has to relocate the girl."

"Well, then wait another five minutes. After five minutes you can't sleep, I'm leaving."

"I usually take half an hour to fall asleep."

"It takes so long, what are you thinking about for half an hour?"

"Last night, I was thinking, I will not call you after I wake up this morning, will you forget me? Also, what to wear, whether to wear makeup, I have been learning makeup recently, everyone Said that I am very talented, I think that when I grow up, I may also be able to create a brand of my own cosmetics."

Eric was sitting on the edge of the bed, letting the girl hold her own hand and smashing it. Maybe it was tired during the day, just over ten minutes, the girl was already asleep.

Helping her cover the quilt, Eric left the girl bedroom lightly.

There was a wall lamp in the living room downstairs, and Eric walked down the stairs, and the maid appeared in front of her.

"Mr. Williams, are you leaving?"

"Yeah, Bobby has fallen asleep. In addition, help me to ask the Devay couple."

"Ok."

The maid nodded and diligently led Eric to the door, helped him open the door, watched Eric get on the side of the road, and watched the two SUVs turn around and disappeared on the street before they took the apartment's brown red. The wooden gate is closed.

It’s already eleven o'clock to return to Kensington Gardens Street.

Eric didn't have much sleepiness. The female assistant stayed in the villa for one night last night. Today she moved to the Royal Garden Hotel in the street. There is only Eric alone in the villa.

Silently rushing a pot of coffee, Eric went to the upstairs study and began to read some of the legal documents he had asked from the Firefly Group's chief legal counsel, Edward Lewis, during the recent days.

After carefully reading all the documents, Eric repeatedly thought about it for a while, got up and took a DV from the bookcase, got it up next to the study sofa, tested the shooting angle, and started recording a video file.

After more than half an hour of video recording, Eric took out a pre-prepared laptop, copied the video files into the computer's hard drive, and encrypted it with Steve Mitnick's encryption software.

After doing all this, look at the time, it is already four o'clock in the morning.

Although London is in a high latitude in the summer, the sky outside the window is still dark. Only when looking up, the sky above London is a pale white because of the city lights.

After deleting the original file in the DV, Eric physically destroyed the memory card in the DV and confirmed that it was impossible to be restored. Only then locked the laptop into the safe and quietly left the study.

Going into the bathroom and taking a shower, lying down on the big bed in the bedroom, I suddenly remembered half an hour before bedtime by Bobby Diwai.

Inexplicably, I began to ponder what I should think about in the past half an hour. However, the heavy exhaustion still screamed in the air, and my thoughts did not focus on any thoughts, and I fell asleep without knowing it.
