"Eric, this is really amazing." On the co-pilot, Drew fiddled with a t-shirt-style dress, and was amazed.

Because of vomiting last night, the clothes on Drew were dirty, and the two rushed to the crew again, so the Eric got a good idea, remembering the way previous life wife converted his big men ’s t-shirt into a skirt. Not difficult.

So now I have the dress of Drew, a dress made of a sky blue t-shirt, and a Eric brown belt with three fingers wide around his waist. This dress is very novel and avant-garde in this era, so I arrived at the crew. Just got off the bus, many people couldn't help but turn their attention to Drew.

Of course, my eyes are also meaningful, because Drew comes with Eric.

"Hey, Eric, you are so empathetic and do not fall in love so quickly. See how tender and considerate you are to Annie the other day. I thought you would be a good man?" After discussing the shoots plan for the day, Penny · Marshall said this to Eric in the spare time, but she did not have many surprises in her tone. In this circle, this kind of thing is too normal.

"Penny, I still like Annie, as for Drew, it just happened."

Penny · Marshall teased: "Is the dress on her body also a coincidence? Well, Eric, I just do n’t bother to care about the things of you young people, but you should pay attention to the size, Drew is only 13 years old after all, um , You understand. "

"Thank you for your reminder, Penny." Eric sees that Penny · Marshall has already identified this matter, and can only say a frustration to end this topic.

In the following month, nothing special happened. The shoots of "17 Again" was still proceeding quickly and orderly. Drew changed from tempting Eric to red fruit. When Aniston appeared in the crew, he also discovered this very easily.

So when the two girls appeared in the crew at the same time, the open fights around Eric became the flavoring agent for all crew members in the process of nervous shoots. All **** men are envious of Eric, and even the young people who play the bad boy Stan, and also found an opportunity to ask Eric for his girl-picking methods. Eric also talked to him with interest, and froze the kid for a while. .

But soon the things that made Eric cry and laugh happened. Other young people in the crew began to spread his cheating secrets of picking girls, and even accidentally reached the ears of Drew. The little girl was tired of Eric in the gap between shoots, half ridiculed and half grumbled. "It turns out that you got me that way. You big **** who is playing with girls. What's even more abominable is that you don't want to be responsible for getting someone's heart. You thief, give me my heart back!"

Aniston's rough diet and weight-loss plan is still in progress, but after eating so much suffering, the effect is not obvious. The girl only lost less than five pounds in a month. Eric is even more worried about this. Some things originally wanted to wait until the end of shoots.

Things are always full of accidents. Finally, at the time of shoots, Aniston fainted because of the low blood sugar caused by hunger. Eric accompanied the hanging bottle for a night. The next day Eric happened to have no drama, so he took Aniston to the fitness consultant introduced by Susan · Sarandon.

It is a high-quality fitness club. The main service object is the actress of Hollywood. When the two people entered, they also met Sigourney · Weaver, which just happened to go out of the club. The world-famous 《Alien》 series Heroine. One of the goddesses of previous life, in the somewhat snack-like eyes of Aniston, Eric walked forward and asked for a signature.

The fitness consultant is a Russian woman who ca n’t see her age at all, and her name is very long, just let Eric call her Natasha. Seeing Natasha for the first time, Eric noticed Aniston ’s deep envy for the devil ’s figure of Natasha, and could only gently hold the Aniston’s small hand, and persuaded in her ear: "Relax, baby, one day, your The figure will be better than her. "

After doing some understanding of Aniston, Natasha patiently explained the huge harm of weight loss in Aniston some time ago, and then took her to do some tests and spent a whole morning to do a full job for Aniston There are more than ten pages of slimming plan.

When the two left, they deeply realized the meaning of the high-end two words in this club, that is one word: expensive! When paying, Aniston insisted on paying the bill by herself. As a result, she directly swiped her business card into a negative number. Fortunately, Aniston will soon get the reward of "17 Again". Although not much, it can solve her financial crisis.

At the end of October, shoots of "17 Again" was finally coming to an end. At the same time, post-production work and publicity had begun one after another. Eric happened to be on newspaper and could already see the lace news about "17 Again". After ending his drama, Drew unexpectedly asked everyone to enter a drug addiction treatment center to get rid of drug addiction. The girl who fell out took the initiative to rehabilitate herself. How could such an inspirational story not be used for publicity.

So, under the planning of Fox propaganda department, this change of Drew was fully attributed to "17 Again". On newspaper, Drew was originally addicted to drug addiction because of losing himself after becoming famous. During the process of shoots "17 Again", Drew gradually began to re-reflect in the warm and motivating theme of the film, and realized the true meaning of life, and found the direction of life again, so Make up my mind to make a new start. The article was written in the light of everything, as if everything was seen by the reporter. If it were not for the truth, Eric thought he would believe it.

Another propaganda direction of the film is his 18-year-old screenwriter and actor. After newspaper general Eric wrote "17 Again" script, from the delivery of script to the end of the Fox wisdom eye and the process of writing the ups and downs, it has created a lively image of the five good young people who will never give up for their ideals.

At the same time, through the producers James · Brooks and Director Penny · Marshall's positive evaluation of his performance level, the side highlights how talented he is for the first time in the new film.

Of course, there is definitely some controversy. Some newspaper soon questioned the screenwriter level of the 18-year-old Eric, and even concluded that the movie "17 Again" is just a rough 20th Century Fox after the success of "Big". Follow the trend. The budget of 20 million USD is likely to be lost.

This prediction is not unfounded. In 1985, the sci-fi comedy "Back to the Future" produced by Universal won 200 million USD Box Office. After successfully winning the North America Box Office championship that year, other Film Studios including Universal themselves, and produced several movies of the same type following the trend. The exceptions are all on the street, which can be seen from the Box Office ranking in 1986.

As for the disputes on newspaper, as long as they are within the control of their public opinion, 20th Century Fox is still very happy to see. A film ’s one-sided praise and one-sided negative reviews will not produce good results. Instead, it is in the proper dispute. In order to maximize the interest of the audience.

At the same time, Eric's novel "Jurassic Park" also gained a lot of benefits in this propaganda wave. Originally, after the novel was launched, Micheal Klaus did all he could to do a lot of promotional work as he promised, the first week of the novel Has sold more than 20,000 copies, which is quite a good result for a newcomer. In the next few weeks, with the follow-up of the promotion and the good reputation of this novel slowly fermenting, the weekly sales are also slowing down. During the step up, although it has not reached the stunning level, it also meets the psychological expectations of Eric.

After the publicity plan for the "17 Again" movie was launched, it was a matter of course that "Jurassic Park" became one of the important publicity points. This makes Michael · Claus ecstatic, even if a media group only produces one-tenth or less of its publicity resources, the impact is not comparable to that of his little Publishing House, which has fewer than ten employees. .

So, the book sales of "Jurassic Park" directly ushered in a round of growth. The gradual exposure of "17 Again" made people full of curiosity about Eric, a young man who almost created a miracle that his peers could not create.

Unfortunately, "17 Again" only exposed some stills and the lace news of the crew. Although the people can guess the content of some movies through the movie name, they are only guesses after all, so the people naturally pass on all their curiosity. To the novel "Jurassic Park".

In the first week of October, the sales of the novel directly broke 100,000 copies, more than the total sales of the previous weeks, and successfully ranked eighth in the 《The New York Times》 bestseller list, although the ranking is not high However, if you compare them, people will find that almost all the top and bottom of the list "Jurassic Park" are the works of those well-known authors. Of the top ten, only "Jurassic Park" belongs to the new book.

......

Because there are several night scenes today, Eric went home at more than ten in the evening.

The car just walked not far from the house door. Eric saw the courtyard door of the neighbors ’Langkeers’ house being pushed open. A small figure came out of the door, turned the door closed, and ran not far away Under the street light, he turned around boringly.

"Hey, little Stu, sneaking out of the house is not something a good boy should do." Eric is curious why the youngest neighbor's youngest child, Stewart · Lunkel, is so late and will leave the yard alone. He came out and stopped and asked.

"Come on, Eric, do you think it ’s the parents’ job to quarrel in the face of a seven-year-old kid? "Stewart replied to his yard.

Eric was a little surprised. The little guy was able to argue with himself so logically and clearly. I really do n’t remember this little guy so smart in memory. Slightly close to the ear, in the house of Runkel's house, the quarrel of the Runkels passed.

"So, what are you doing again?" Withdrawing attention, Eric continued to ask.

Stewart leaned on the street lamp next to him with his arms folded, a little adult looks like: "I'm pretending to run away from home."

"Pretend?"

"Yeah, so they wo n’t quarrel after they find that I am gone."

Eric also felt that the couple quarreled in front of their children, so they said: "So, little guy, how about sitting at my house for a while, it's dangerous for you to stay here late at night alone."

"Okay, thank you, Eric."

Eric stops car, opens the door and leads the little guy into the living room.
