"I need a few months to finish my existing business." Carolyn has almost no hesitation. As Eric said, everyone can see the current development potential of Firefly. A small accounting transaction Between the Boss and the chief financial officer of a large company, smart people know which one to choose.

"Of course, no problem." Eric said, the company's several departments are now operated by Robert, Eric does not have the right person, so it did not say anything. However, Eric has to pay more attention to the company's finances, and it is the best choice to insert the Carloyn Elliot that is relatively familiar with himself into this seat. As for Robert Shay, Eric believes that as long as he is smart enough, he will not object to his decision.

The two chatted for a while and walked to the office together under the notice of the staff.

The meeting is not long. The issues discussed are roughly the financial issues of Firefly and the new line, as well as the development plan for next year. When Carloyn Elliot reported Firefly finance, Robert Shay's face was very exciting, because the new line released six or seven movies including "Menggui Street 5" this year, but the total revenue was not as good as "Home Alone" first part. And according to the prior contract, although Robert Shay owns 15% of Firefly, it can only listen to Carolyn's profit data, but can't get a penny from it.

During the period, Eric also announced that it will appoint Carloyn Elliot as the company's financial controller. Although Robert Shay is difficult to conceal, it did not refute.

The meeting opened for an entire afternoon. After the meeting, Eric stopped the Robert Shay who wanted to leave and asked, "Robert. How are you preparing for the release of the" An Affair to Remember "videotape?"

"I have customized the first batch of 100,000 cassette tapes, Eric, do you really think that" An Affair to Remember "can be re-sold by the influence of" Sleepless in Seattle "?" Robert Shay asked doubtfully.

Eric definitely nodded: "Of course. There are too few Robert and 100,000 boxes. The first batch must at least make 300,000 boxes, you should try to pay attention to this matter."

Robert Shay shook his head like a rattle: "Eric, this is too risky, I think 100,000 boxes are enough, and this has already spent 1 million, we will definitely have to pay a sum of money in the future to promote .If the video tape is really hot, we can just let the factory catch up. "

"In case it can't catch up," Eric asked in return: "Robert. Believe me, make 300,000 box and then lay out the goods, tell those dealers, you can sell first and then pay. Make sure that the channels we can reach have" "An Affair to Remember" videotape. "

"This ..." Robert is still a bit hesitant. In his opinion, an old movie 30 many years ago, after the stimulation of "Sleepless in Seattle", it was already very good to be able to sell 100,000 boxes, but Eric directly let him produce The 300,000 box also uses such sales methods, which seems to Robert to be similar to throwing money directly into the water.

Eric thought about it. Say: "Robert, will you listen to me this time? If it turns out that I was wrong, then I will not intervene in anything in the company's business for a year."

Robert immediately moved when he heard Eric say this. What he was most afraid of was that Eric was a finger-pointer about the company's management. Out of prejudice in terms of age, Robert didn't feel that Eric had any talents in managing Film Studio. It was only through the success of several movies that it now possesses its current wealth and status. In this case, it should be honest to film, rather than talking about the company's business, but to his frustration, Eric owns 85% of the company's shares.

There is a promise of Eric, even verbally. Robert Shay feels that he can also gamble, and the cost of 300,000 cassette tapes is only 3 million. In exchange for his “absolute control” of Firefly for a year, it seems to be very worthwhile in Robert: “Okay. Eric, I will implement it as soon as possible according to your plan.”

Eric watched Robert Shay leave and smiled, thinking that this method might continue, using such a ‘bait’ to drive Robert to do things according to his own will.

Cleaned up, Eric left the office and was ready to drive home. Just out of the office building, a white woman with a 30 age of brown hair came over in two steps to stop him.

When Eric stopped, the woman introduced earnestly: "Mr. Williams, this is Shalisa.Cody, do you remember me? We have seen it."

Eric has almost forgotten the Shalisa.Cody that had a side in New York. However, he cannot fail to know the man behind this woman, Brad Pitt.

It's just that, compared to the eagerness of Shalisa.Cody, Brad Pitt is much embarrassing. It seems that he must be against manager's initiative to find the door.

"Hello, Ms. Cody, and see you again." Eric smiled and shook hands with each other. He thought this matter was quite interesting. He thought he would never see Brad Pitt again after that.

Shalisa.Cody saw Eric think of herself, and suddenly smiled on her face, I have to say that this woman is really very well maintained, Eric ca n’t determine how old the other is.

"Mr. Williams, remember your original invitation? I have taken my team to join uta."

Eric recalled it, remembering that there was indeed such a thing, he saw Shalisa can take the initiative to apology with Brad Pitt, feel that this woman is very human, so he casually said, but, Eric looked at the front The two of them still asked, "When did it happen?"

"One ... a week ago," Shalisa replied, and after seeing that Eric showed no other look, the woman quickly said again: "Mr. Williams, can you invite you to dinner?"

Eric looked at Shalisa.Cody and glanced at the Brad Pitt behind the woman who was barely smiling politely, and soon remembered that the other party found her purpose: "Ms. Cody, Mr. Pitt will not be the audition for the actor" X-Files " Is that right? "

Seeing that something was broken by Eric, Shalisa.Cody smiled a little awkwardly, and then said: "Mr. Williams, Brad audition in the afternoon, but unfortunately you just were n’t there in the afternoon. So I came here in person and wanted to talk to you . "

"Well," Eric glanced at the Brad Pitt behind the woman: "Mr. Pitt, you do n’t have to go, go back and wait for the news."

When Brad Pitt heard this sentence, his face suddenly became a little embarrassed. Shalisa.Cody realized that Eric still didn't like the Brad behind him, so he had a look at the man standing behind him.

"Then ... I'll go back first," Brad Pitt finally said at this time: "Mr. Williams, then ... bye."

Eric just nodded slightly towards the other party, and when Brad Pitt drove away alone, Eric opened its door. To Shalisa.Cody, "Ms. Cody, please get in the car."

"Oh, thank you," the woman quickly got into the co-pilot.

In a restaurant, after ordering, Shalisa.Cody said anxiously: "Mr. Williams, in fact, Pete ’s acting is very good. If you do n’t believe it, you can go and watch Pete ’s videotape for the audition of X-Files. He just never had What a good opportunity you encounter. "

Of course, Eric knows that Brad Pitt has a good acting skill, and the other party has won more performance awards and nominations than Tom Cruise. However, how is this, Hollywood outstanding performance but countless people can not count, but there are only so many opportunities.

However, looking at the woman in front of me, Eric's mouth has a playful smile: "Ms. Cody, do you only have Brad Pitt and Actor?"

Shalisa.Cody do n’t know why Eric suddenly asked, but still shook his head: "No, there are four or five."

Eric shrugged: "Oh, then you are really good enough for Brad."

Shalisa.Cody's face suddenly turned slightly red. Of course she heard the voiceover of Eric. However, there is nothing difficult about manager and her Actor. She also heard that a 40-50 years old music Producer personally The twelve-year-old girl brought a lot of red and taught her to become his wife. The girl seemed to be Celine or something.

Adjusted the mentality, Shalisa.Cody tone with a light request: "Mr. Williams, can you give Pete a chance? He will certainly not let you down."

Eric is looking at the woman in front of her, and he is also thinking quickly. With this hard manager to help Brad Pitt Zhang Luo, although the other party is 26 years old, but the male Actor, especially the handsome male Actor, the shelf life is quite long, then Brad Pitt is still very soon Maybe Hollywood is in the early stages, which is something that Eric is very reluctant to see.

In this case, handing over the actor "X-Files" to Brad Pitt will do him no harm. Because "X-Files", like 《Friends》, is a TV series with a very fixed character image. After ten seasons and eight seasons, Actor is almost impossible to change the screen image, and the possibility of re-entering the big screen is even more slim. The six leading actors of previous life 《Friends》 successfully transformed the big screen, only Aniston. Moreover, the price paid by Aniston is also very large. In order to transform to the big screen, in order not to make the audience think of ‘Rachel. Green’, many of the characters received by Aniston are very bad.

Although I made a decision in my heart, Eric is still quite kind. After thinking about it for a while, I directly reminded Shalisa.Cody: "Ms. Cody, you have to think about it. Once you let Mr. Pitt take over the role of the actor of" X-Files " , His screen image is likely to be finalized, and it is very difficult to transform in the future. Because this TV series actor must sign at least five seasons of contracts "(to be continued)
