Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
Some people around laughed. The Fatty of a Producer from Fox just said in the introduction: "Eric, I also have a few script there, or I will send it to Cliff Peak Manor tomorrow, you can help to see, these The project is still under consideration. If you can pick one, Heroine will set this Miss Connelly. "
Fatty ’s words have just been finished. Other people who were originally lively are keenly aware that this is a very good opportunity. Although it is not an easy task to let Eric write script in person, let Eric help select script, only Need to pay a Heroine, this is a very profitable thing.
"Eric, here I am ..."
"Eric, I will make people tomorrow ..."
Aware of this, several executives around Producer immediately put down their restraints and offered to recommend it.
"How could you guys do this," Amy Pascal squeezed aside complained helplessly.
Notice that many people on party looked over curiously. Eric gestured around and made a mute gesture. The few in front were smart people. Knowing that the matter spread, they would have little chance. , Shut their mouths in a very interesting way.
"So, you can send script to me to see, but if you let me help you choose, I need to account for 30% of the investment. Of course, I only invest, not intervene in other things."
A few people looked at each other and nodded at the same time. Eric participated in the investment. In the future, this gimmick can be used to promote it. As an investor, you ca n’t say anything about hanging an executive producer.
Eric quickly saw through the minds of several people and immediately said: "I will invest in the name of Jenny. Let me say it first. The production of the film has nothing to do with me. You cannot use my name for publicity."
After a short period of hesitation, everyone agreed quickly. Eric was personally responsible for selecting script and participated in the investment of the film. Also let her woman sit Heroine, which fully shows his affirmation of this movie. If you mess up in the end, you can only find the reason for yourself.
After discussing this matter, Eric quickly tentatively asked again: "Yes, which script was cut off last time, what is the reason. I do n’t believe it is because I said a few more words. ? "
Everyone looked at Jennifer Connelly in unison, and the girl shrank her neck innocently, not understanding what happened.
Amy Pascal smiled and said: "Eric, you do n’t need to think about quibbling, although there are some other factors. But those items were cut off because of you."
Eric spreads hands: "Well, what other factors are you talking about?"
Amy Pascal said: "Reducing production, I don't know what other Film Studio plans are, but Columbia has decided to reduce production, Pat, what about you?"
"This is also ours, but it has not been determined yet. Mr. Ross thinks it is unlikely to fight."
"I think there is a high possibility of fighting."
Eric interrupted: "Sorry, everyone, can you explain?"
Amy saw the expression of Eric. Say: "Eric, if you pay attention to the latest international news, you should find that the situation in the Middle East is very tense, and the federal government may use force against Iraq. The time should be within the next year, if that's the case. Public attention It will definitely focus on the war, and it is imperative to reduce production of Film Studio. "
Eric was shocked.
Gulf War!
This important time is almost forgotten.
Seeing Eric suddenly dazed. Amy asked with concern: "Eric, are you okay. In fact, war may not necessarily be able to fight. After so many wars, the anti-war sentiment of the people is still very high, and it is impossible for the Bush administration to force the war completely regardless of public opinion Of. "
"I'm fine, sorry, lost in company," Eric grinned reluctantly, pulled Jennifer Connelly beside him, and the two walked out of the crowd.
"Eric, what's wrong?"
Eric continued to walk out with the girl and said, "Jenny, we have to go back, I suddenly remembered something very important."
Jennifer Connelly nodded obediently, followed Eric to leave some people, the two quickly left Hilton Hotel.
Back to Cliff Peak Manor, Eric confessed that the girl went to bed by herself, then found newspaper in recent days, and went directly to the study.
It took an hour or two to read in detail the international news that was all swept away several times. Sure enough, during this time, 《The New York Times》, "The Washington Post" and other newspapers have many more news in the Middle East. Eric also Can roughly figure out a context.
The matter is very simple. Iraq and Iran fought the Iran-Iraq War for eight years, and it did not stop until the second half of 1988. The war ended with both defeats and injuries. At the same time, Iraq ’s debt was high, and it owed several 10 billion USD loans to Middle Eastern countries Among them, Kuwait is the only country in which Iraq owes 14billion USD.
This money is definitely not in Iraq. In the end, Iraq arbitrarily requested Kuwait to waive the arrears on the grounds that their war with Iran contributed to the entire Arab country.
Of course, Kuwait could not agree. Finally, the two parties started negotiations, and now the negotiations have entered the final stage.
Of course, this is just what we know now.
According to the memory brought by previous life, the negotiations finally broke down, and the ensuing invasion of Kuwait by Iraq. Saddam occupied Kuwait in just eight hours and declared Kuwait as the 19th in Iraq. In a province, the time should be August 2, 1990, and there is only more than one month left. Now, half a year after Kuwait ’s occupation, on January 17, 1991, the Gulf War broke out. The joint * led by the US military was only used 42 days to conquer Kuwait.
During the Gulf War of previous life, Eric has already entered junior high school. Although it is no longer as ignorant as a child, it is not as concerned about current affairs as when it was in college. Most of the information about this war is only after school, and occasionally As adults watch a few pieces of news, or from other people's discussions, this part of the memory seems very fragmented.
However, as long as you remember some of the main dates, it is enough. Although there is more space in this butterfly, he believes that with his current strength, he certainly cannot affect the course of this war. Then, according to his memory, he can get the maximum benefit from this war as much as possible. (To be continued)
