Within a few days, Eric rushed to New York. The 65th Oscar Awards were held lively at the Los Angeles Music Center. "Schindler's List" became the biggest winner without dispute, with a total of 12 nominations. After winning eight small goldmen, Steven Speilberg finally won the honor of Oscar Best Director.

Since pretending to be a Universal Pictures employee and entering the Film Studio of Burbank, Steven Speilberg has been in the market for 25 years. Afterwards, he created a series of Box Office results with 《Jaws》, ET Alien and 《Indiana Jones》, which is Hollywood's most successful The commercial film Director enjoys a very high status in Hollywood, but now it is recognized by the film academy. On the little podium, tears were still excited.

Although it was near midnight in Eastern time at that time, the two women accompanied the Eric to watch the entire award ceremony. When they noticed the tearing action of Spielberg, Virginia whispered to Eric. In the future, he will get Oscar Director. .

Eric remembered how he had received the best adaptation script award with 《Scent of a Woman》 two years ago. At that time, he thought that as a person who revived his life, he would be very indifferent to the attribution of the award, but at the award ceremony. In an atmosphere of adrenaline surge, it is almost impossible to keep calm. However, Eric can be sure that if the Oscar best Director is really obtained in the future, the excitement will definitely be there, but the possibility of tears like Spielberg is unlikely, because Spielberg people still maintain a childlike innocence in middle age , Eric has long lost any childish heart.

Last year's "Twister" won the Best Visual Effects Award without surprise, Stan Winston was present to receive the award in person, because the absence of Eric Director and Heroine Joanna, plus no important nominations, except for a few of the best audio Apart from technicians and Stan Winston and others, the main members of the crew of "Twister" did not attend this Oscar. "Twister" won a technical award and it was better. Firefly Pictures's other shortlisted films went back empty-handed.

Therefore, intentionally or unintentionally. After the Oscar awards ceremony, in addition to congratulations to Spielberg, whose merits have finally been fulfilled more than 20 years later, many media have turned their attention to Firefly, criticizing Firefly Pictures films for being too commercial. Even with Disney, it has become profitable, only knowing that making commercial films of a profitable nature makes profits, and forgets to pursue the artistic and social factors of the film itself.

Eric basically glanced at these sour articles, and the bottom line is that Firefly Pictures's performance last year was too strong. The 27% North America annual total Box Office occupancy rate is more than the second and third places in the back combined. The other Film Studios feel like they are going to move around and it is not surprising. Thinking of the few films that have started the summer promotion, Eric thinks that after this year, the other six major groups are expected to get more popular, but they will definitely get used to this situation sooner or later.

After April, Virginia and Joanna have entered the due date, everyone in the small estate including Eric has become cautious, because the two women are pregnant with the child at the same time, although the possibility of the child being born at the same time is very likely low. Eric prepared two sets of identical delivery rooms in the villa, and even the doctor team prepared two shifts.

So until April 9, it should have been a normal Friday. Eric had lunch and went to the study room to process some documents from Los Angeles as usual. The Joanna sat in the shadow of Eric, holding a book in his hand and reading it quietly.

Facing the media criticizing Firefly Pictures for over-commercialization, although Firefly is very cold from top to bottom, no public response has been made no matter what the outside world said, but within Firefly. After several meetings and discussions, the management agreed that Oscar is an important part of Hollywood after all, even to maintain the public image. Firefly should not be overlooked too much. After several days of discussion, the management negotiated two options.

One is that Firefly sets up a special art film department, which invests or buys several art films for the Olympic Games every year. Another option is to acquire a second- and third-line Film Studio that specializes in art films, and Michael Lynn and others even have a target, Miramax.

Eric was not surprised to see the name. In the past few years, Miramax has only operated some of the best foreign language films and other peripheral awards, but in recent years, with Weinstein Brothers's experience in awards and public relations becoming more and more rich, almost every year, it attempts to get involved in the best movies, best Director and most Oscar core awards such as Jia male & female leads. And this year, although Miramax also faced losses due to its extensive expansion of production and distribution business, it had to choose the road of sale, but its operation "The Crying Game" still brought the best film, best Director and best for Miramax The nomination of three heavyweight Oscar awards for the actor, if not "Schindler's List" as expected, "The Crying Game" won one or two of these awards is not impossible.

However, seeing the documents in hand, Eric has no much interest in acquiring Miramax, perhaps because of the comments in the media during this time, Weinstein Brothers thought that Firefly ’s intention to acquire Miramax was more than several other competitors ’ Urgent ', so the price tag of 100 million USD was issued, and I hope to retain certain shares and maintain the independent operation of Miramax.

A few years ago, the reason why Eric chose Xinxian and Miramax two Film Studios to expand the acquisition of Firefly is mainly because the two Film Studios already have relatively mature distribution channels. Although the scale is small, as long as there are good The expansion of the movie is very rapid, and the new line is finally selected, mainly because the new line is larger.

Now, Eric has no thoughts about Miramax, and after seeing the conditions proposed by Weinstein Brothers, he is more interested and lacking. If after the acquisition of Miramax, if Weinstein Brothers is allowed to operate the Film Studio alone, with the two brothers unwilling to make the Olympic film, they will expand their Miramax. In the future, Firefly and Miramax will definitely repeat the same mistakes of Disney and Miramax in the original time and space. Sure thing.

Eric does not intend to drag these two brothers thinking about themselves into the Disney system to plug themselves.

Thinking about it, Eric decided to use the first set of plans.

Decided, Eric turned on the computer and started tapping his opinions on blank documents.

I just typed a few lines of text. The study door was abruptly knocked on by someone, and Eric frowned and did not respond, and a maid directly pushed the door probe in and said anxiously, "Mr. Williams. Madam's amniotic fluid broke." "

Eric suddenly stood up: "Did you call the doctor?"

"My wife just felt a little uncomfortable in the stomach. Ms. Paquin just came to check on her, and now my wife has been delivered to the delivery room."

Eric turned to the desk and walked out, took a few steps before turning to look at Joanna: "Joan, do you have any ..."

Joanna closed the book. With a smile, he stood up and said: "How can it be so clever, don't worry about me, go check it out."

"Then you have a good rest here, you don't have to go through it," Eric said, and walked out with the maid.

Going through the long corridor to the other room facing the south of the villa, Eric has heard Virginia's cry of pain outside, just about to push the door in, and another drag out Nurse holding a tray. Seeing Eric's move quickly pulled him: "Mr. Williams, you can't go in like this, you must put on sterile clothes first, Mary, help Mr. Williams get some clothes."

Eric agreed, changing clothes in a hurry before finally entering the delivery room.

This converted delivery room is no less than the high-end ward of any hospital. All equipment is brand new. Eric promised that the private doctor responsible for the two women would donate all the equipment in the delivery room after use. When the other side, the other side almost excitedly excited.

Virginia lying on the hospital bed saw Eric appear. Suddenly reached out a small hand: "Eric."

"I am here," Eric stepped forward to hold the woman's small hand and comforted it before looking at the middle-aged woman with a mask beside her: "Ms. Paquin. How about that?"

"Relax, Mr. Williams, there is no problem with me, and Eliza will come over later."

Elisa in the mouth of a middle-aged woman is a doctor from another team. Eric nodded, watching the busy appearance of the doctors and nurses, and no longer disturbed, quietly standing beside Virginia.

The time when a woman gave birth to her first child is always relatively long. Eric was originally prepared for this matter. However, Virginia began to toss until the early morning when the amniotic fluid broke in the afternoon, and the little guy was reluctant to come out.

The pale face of Virginia heard Eric whispering and discussed with the doctor. After twelve hours passed, when the little guy used caesarean section without movement, he immediately screamed: "Eric, I do n’t want a caesarean section, I heard that The child will be stupid. "

"Don't talk nonsense, how could it be silly, you lie down," Eric sat down next to the woman again, took her hand and calmed down quietly.

"Yes, yes, I don't want a caesarean section anyway."

Eric said a little helplessly: "Then you will work hard to quickly let the little guy out."

"Pain ..."

"Then caesarean section."

"Woo ... blame you."

"Yes yes, blame me, don't cry, relax, relax."

"I am hungry."

"Boiled porridge in the kitchen, I'll get it for you," Eric said, and hurried out of the delivery room.

The hostess was in labor, no one had a rest, the whole villa was brightly lit, Eric passed by the living room, Joanna whispered on the sofa accompanied by a maid, and saw Eric coming out, Joanna was busy Asked: "Eric, how is it going?"

Eric shook his head: "Dr. Paquin said that after twelve hours, if there is no movement, it is best to have a caesarean section. I help Vicky get some food, Joan, you should rest early."

"It's okay, I can't sleep either," Joanna shook her head gently, her hands gently touching her abdomen, perhaps under the influence of Virginia, she felt a little pain in her stomach, but it was just normal for many times in the past Phenomenon, in order not to worry about Eric, did not say it, continue: "Gina just asked if you want to eat, please go to the kitchen to get it."

While watching Eric get into the kitchen, she quickly took out a bowl, and the maid standing beside Joanna whispered: "Mr. Williams is really considerate."

"Yeah," Joanna said softly, feeling a tingling in the abdomen again, frowning slightly, reaching for the remote control beside him, trying to turn on the TV to divert his attention, and moved slightly Moving her body and touching the remote control, she also saw a faint water stain on the sofa.

The maid was just about to say something. She followed Joanna ’s staring gaze and suddenly covered her mouth and cried: "Oh, my oh God."

After saying this, the maid got up and ran nervously towards the delivery room.

The amniotic fluid of Joanna is also broken ... Eric who heard the news was almost at a loss, but the doctors were calmly divided into two small teams, guarding a person on one side.

For insurance purposes, Dr. Paquin suggested that Eric can contact one or two more doctors. Encountered such a coincidence, Eric no longer considered any confidential matters at all, and immediately agreed to the other party's suggestion. Dr. Paquin saw the consent of Eric and recommended his two peers to Eric.

The residents nearby had noticed this brightly lit manor. Two helicopters flew in and landed on the small manor. They were even more curious. Some people came over to ask, but they did n’t get an answer from the guard. .

Eric briefly talked with the doctor who had just arrived in a helicopter to see him and was a little surprised, and he got into the delivery room of Joanna.

After seeing Eric coming over, Joanna, who was slightly biting his lips, immediately stretched out his hand.

Seeing the man holding his small hand and comforting it quietly, Joanna kept crying quietly: "Eric ......"

"It's okay, it's okay, soon, rest assured." Eric comforted in a series, reaching out to wipe the corners of the eye for Joanna.

Joanna shook his head gently and said sadly and timidly: "No, Eric, I mean, I, my child is not called Hawaii." (To be continued.)
