Chapter 322: Not good at it.

"Eric, look, the situation is not what you think, Carol Bugay, Natasha Kinsky, Isabel. Yupel, Isabel Ajani, the European first-line actress either refuses The invitation is either very interesting to this story, but I hope that you can try to delete the passionate drama." In the office, Jeffrey handed a stack of emails to Eric.
Eric took it and looked at the other person's receipt in silence. After a while, he shook his head and smiled: "It seems that I think it is too simple."
"Of course, it is very difficult to want a good acting actress to star in "Instinct". Even these European actresses, although they are indeed acceptable, but if they are interested If Hollywood develops, it will not be easy to pick up such a movie, otherwise it will have a great impact on their image in Hollywood. If there is no intention to come to Hollywood, let alone, your taste is not in accordance with the rules. Most of the European actresses in the literary film."
"Right," Eric suddenly looked down at several emails in his hand: "Carol Bugay’s agent wrote back that the other party is very interested in the movie. You can contact us to see if you can She flew to Los Angeles to talk."
Jeffrey looked at Carol Buga's information and smiled: "Eric, the image of the French actress is indeed the best match with Catherine Cuume's setting, but the other party just took it in March this year. The best actress in the French Caesar Award, I think it is even harder to convince."
"Then pack and bind, I plan to have a movie heroine who can let her try it, and it is also a big production, the investment will not be less than 60 million US dollars."
"How come I don't know," Jeffrey came to the mood: "Let's talk about it?"
Eric smiled and shook his head: "This is confidential first, and it is not necessarily my next movie. I have already asked Stan to prepare "Jurassic Park" while doing the special effects of "Ghosts". The pre-technical development was made, so my specific work schedule has not been fixed after "Ghosts are gone", maybe I will start preparing for Jurassic Park. Or maybe I will shoot some other simple special effects. The film, accumulated experience."
"Well, then I won't ask," Jeffrey said. "However, Disney is very dissatisfied with the progress of "The Ghosts Are Not Ghosted." He hopes that you can start shooting as soon as possible."
"They don't know the speed of my film, although the film will use special effects. But it's not too complicated special effects. I will shoot the parts that need special effects first, and hand them over to Stan. They will do it later, one month. No, it will be completed in mid-June according to the plan, and there will be nearly one month of publicity time, enough."
"I told them this too," Jeffrey smiled and said: "However, Eric. I think we still have to prepare for the alternative. Many local second and third-line actresses have submitted information. You may wish to pick it out. I think there are still many good ones."
"When I left, I handed them the information. I chose to arrange a simple audition," Eric said.
The two are talking, and Jeffrey’s assistant knocked on the door:
Mr. Hansen, Mr. Williams, Mr. Roger Spottlewood and Mr. Don Johnson arrived.

"Let's go," Jeffrey told Eric: "The director and the actor have now been finalized."
Eric and Jeffrey came to a small meeting room, and the three people in the room quickly stood up. Eric saw Melanie Griffith appear here. Somewhat surprised, but soon relieved. Melanie Griffith is the wife of Don Johnson.
To be honest, Don Johnson has always been a TV actor. The fame is far from her wife Melanie Griffith. It is estimated that Melanie Griffith came together to cheer her husband. The two have only been married for more than a year, and the marriage is still in the honeymoon period.
Eric also chose Don Johnson as the actor of Instinct because of a movie in memory. As for the original Michael Douglas, Eric felt that the other person was too old, although the acting was good, but Eric I always feel that the other side's momentum is weaker, and I have not fully demonstrated Nick's hot temper.
With the couple holding their hands, Eric suddenly remembered another person. According to the time, Eric’s rebirth should not affect the appearance of this person, that is, Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith. Sri Lanka's daughter, Dakota Johnson, parallel time and space, Dakota Johnson starred in a well-known movie called "Fifty Shades of Grey", speaking, Melanie Griffith family also It is barely a Hollywood film family, but it is far less influential than the Coppola family or the Fonda family.
"Mr. Williams, is there any problem?" Don Johnson saw Eric, looking at both of them with great interest, asked curiously.
"Oh, sorry, I suddenly remembered something."
Eric smiled and turned to another person, Roger Spottywood, a 40-year-old middle-aged man with a thin face and eyes. The most famous movie of the past life should be "The Empire of 007".
But now, although Roger Spottywood is already forty-five years old, but as a director, he has been ignorant. There is no such a good movie. After Jeffrey recommended it to him, Eric deliberately looked for the other movie. It was found that the other party was very good at this kind of drama of "Instinct". More importantly, Roger Spottywood was not only cheap, but also did not require the final editing rights, so Eric quickly determined.
After the chill, the three men sat down.
"Mr. Spottywood, you have been studying the script for a few days. Let me talk about your thoughts on this movie."
"Of course, Mr. Williams," Roger Sporwood nodded. "I think that "Instinct" is on the surface of a process of detecting a murderous murder, but it is actually depicting one. A primitive desire to look forward to, a wild passion, can be seen from the script, as the inspector Nick is actually a kind of person with the murderer Catherine Cuume. They have the most hidden in their hearts. The original tendency to destruction, so Nick was in the process of undercover. He was excited to kill the innocent tourists. Moreover, after the rock singer was killed, Nick determined that Catherine Cuume was the real murderer. After the interrogation, Nick was inspired by Catherine Cuume, and the deep desires of the heart were provoked, and then there was the rudeness to Beth..."
Although Roger Sporwood has been a director for ten years, he has been working hard. However, the understanding of this script has been greatly improved, and several people in the conference room have nodded.
Eric also realized. Roger Spottlewood estimates that Jonathan Demi, like the original Jonathan Demi, made a name for himself with Eric's "Small Island Cry" and is now a Hollywood frontline director. It is estimated that Roger Spottlewood also wants to seize this opportunity, although the script of "Instinct" is very different from other Eric's other screenplays, but after all, it is a script written by Eric himself, which will cause controversy in the future. Then the firepower must be on Eric. As long as the film is successful, his director can go further.
Several people have been discussing all afternoon, about all aspects of the film "Instinct". After work, Eric returned to Sharp Point Estate with a thick stack of alternate actress files.
Pushing the door into the villa, a petite figure greeted him.
"Hey. Vicky, when did you come back?" Eric asked the girl and kissed him.
"The plane at 10:30 in the morning feels really bad. I don't want to sit on the plane for a long time." Virginia complained about Eric's arm and went to Europe to attend a film awards ceremony. The other party originally wanted to invite Eric, but Eric didn't make time to say it. If he is personally present, he will definitely be exhausted. And Jonathan Demi is nervously filming "The Silent Lamb" and finally can only let Virginia run.
"Actually, I hate to take long-distance flights. The experience of going to Venice was very bad," Eric said with a smile. "Since I am back, I will stay here. It’s just that I have to go to New York in a few days. You help. I am looking at home."
"I won't help you to look after the house," the girl said in a strange way. "Yes, in the afternoon, a man named Michael Kraus sent a sample of your new book. I have read it, the story is written. It’s wonderful, it’s just a little short.

Vegniya said, leaving for a while, and after a while came a hardcover edition of the book, Eric deliberately explained the cover design, the green digital stream with the words 'Matrix'.
Eric looked at the cover and nodded: "Yes, I can't think of publishing it so soon."
Going to the lobby sofa and sitting down, Eric turned and looked up.
Vigny took Eric's coat and office bag lightly and took it. He came over and sat down next to the man. Eric naturally took advantage of Virginia's waist.
Virginia was giggling a few times, then lying on the sofa, leaning on Eric's thighs, feeling a pair of big hands drilling into the neckline and gently kneading, and soon the face was reddish and the chest undulations accelerated slightly.
"Are your next movie fixed?" Eric asked casually.
"Not yet, I have received a lot of scripts, all of which are horror movies. "Small Island Cry" has just passed. If I continue to play horror movies, it will be difficult to transform in the future, so I want to try other types."
The girl said, she opened the book in front of her, and her eyes stared at Eric.
"Well, I will pay attention to you," Eric said casually.
"Well, or else, can you write a script for me?"
Eric smiled and squeezed on the girl's face: "It's greedy, "Instinct" can't you play?"
Vigania happened to have seen the script of "Instinct", and stunned Eric with a glance and provoked: "You let me play me."
Eric pretended to turn Virginia over and slammed a few times on the girl's buttocks, and Virginia was soft on Eric's legs.
"Okay, get up," Eric said helplessly.
"It hurts, you are really hateful, not at all considerate." Virginia twisted her cheeks and complained a few words, but quickly climbed up.
"I don't have a script that is suitable for you for the time being, so try to let Kapoor help you pick it up, or find something to help me to see it," Eric explained, seeing the girl nod. I continued: "Yes. Help me bring the bag I just got, I still have some things to deal with."
"Now it's off work," the girl said. Still got up and took the briefcase.
Eric took a stack of actress's files and put them on their laps, flipping them one by one, picking out a good one from time to time.
"What are these doing?" Virginia looked up curiously with a copy of the information. Asked.
"A list of "instinct" actresses," Eric said: "The first-line actress in Europe has almost refused. The first-line actress in Hollywood will basically not pick up. I can only pick from the second and third lines. ""
"In fact, many acting actors in the second and third actor are still good."
"This is of course, of course, but I don't have time to pick pearls in the sand now. Of course, the first-line actors who can use insurance should try to use them as much as possible. There is also a certain guarantee on the box office."
Vignia sighed softly and soon felt that she was lucky enough: "Eric, then you are busy, I am going to dinner, what do you want to eat?"
"Anyway, you look at it," Eric said without raising his head.
The girl knew that Eric was telling the truth. Eric was always not picky about the food, so she stood up and walked to the kitchen.
Eric has just picked half. The phone behind him rang, and Eric got up and took the cordless phone and pressed the answer button. There was a voice from Jeffrey: "Jeffrey. Is there anything?"
"..."
On the other end of the phone, Jeffrey said for a while, Eric thought for a moment and said, "Well, just talk on the phone. You hand over the phone number from me to Carroll Buga."
"..."
"No problem, then I hang up." Eric pressed the hang up button, placed the cordless phone on the coffee table in front of him, and continued to pick up the list of actresses in front of him.
After more than ten minutes, the phone ringing again. Eric picked it up and there was a female voice with a somewhat unstandard English pronunciation: "Hello. Mr. Williams, I am Carroll Bugue."
......
After half an hour. Vegniya came out of the kitchen and shouted Eric to eat. Seeing Eric’s hand still holding the phone, walking around in the open space above the floor-to-ceiling window, dancing and saying something, she didn’t dare to bother.
After a little while, Virginia saw Eric hanging up the phone and threw the cordless phone on the sofa. The whole person looked very tired and fled toward the sofa.
The girl went to Eric and asked thoughtfully: "What happened?"
"Nothing, I was invited by a French actress, Carol Buga, who wanted to play the "Instinct", but she refused."
Virginia wants to sneak a few words in schadenfreude. I don’t think there is an actor that Eric can’t invite. However, looking at Eric’s screaming look on the sofa, he quickly kept his emotions and advised: "Then slowly choose, anyway, no one is willing to play. Um... Carol Bugay, the spokesperson of Chanel No. 5 in previous years?"
"Yes, I also starred in the girl," Eric nodded.
"I think of it a bit. It is said that it is a very individual woman. After she played the girl, she didn't want to continue to be a vase, and she went back to France to play a literary film."
"Don't say her, refuse, refuse," Eric lost. Anyway, most movies in Hollywood are like this. When the casting is over, the twists and turns are constant, even Steven Spielberg or James Cameron. No exception, remember that Cameron spent several months before convincing Fox to agree to let Leonardo star in Jack of Titanic.
"So, let's eat first," said Virginia.
Eric nodded and stood up and walked toward the restaurant.
Already at ten o'clock in the middle of the night, Virginia was wearing pajamas, holding a pillow in her arms and leaning on the big bed, watching Eric still walking around the list in her hand.
"...I don't care about this. I didn't arrange enough time for them tomorrow morning. If they can't come, they can only say regret... I will set the heroine of "Instinct" tomorrow... Yes, On the spot, an hour ago in New York, I called again. Royce had been waiting in New York for a week, and the two protagonists had passed. I couldn’t waste any more time. Just like this, I hung up."
I breathed a sigh of relief. Eric took the line and placed the phone on the bedside of the bed, only to be tired and fell on the bed. Reaching out to Virginia's soft body, greedily sniffing the body fragrance of the girl. The irritability in my heart suddenly dissipated a lot.
Virginia's little hand gently massaged the temple for Eric, whispered: "Eric, must be so anxious? You are already so good, why bother to make yourself so tired."
"These were originally plans for the first half of the year, but unfortunately because of the incident at the beginning of the year, it was wasted for more than three months, and now it will become like this," Eric explained. The tone is a bit weak: "I always feel that time is too tight and I want to do too much."
"I wish I could help you, but I don't know anything," Virginia said softly.
Eric laughed and tightened the girl's waist and limbs: "In fact, you can help me, be my big pillow, I like to sleep with a woman."
"Just holding sleep?" the girl said in a sigh of relief. She reached out and pressed the light in the bedroom. The room suddenly dimmed because the soundproofing was very good. Although there is wind outside, there will be no sound of the waves coming, and there is silence around.
"Yeah. Just holding asleep," Eric said, the girl was in her arms, her head leaning against Virginia's full chest and saying, unconsciously, the eyelids had begun to fight and soon fell asleep.
The girl squatted for a while, only a little pity to pull the quilt to cover the two.
......
In the firefly's audition room, a woman wearing a simple coat sat down on a chair and lifted her legs with ease. Taking care of himself from the pocket, the face is always faint. Indifferent smile.
"You can't smoke here, Miss Chu Mei." The assistant behind the camera said to the opening of the line.
The girl's style squinted at the assistant's position and said, "What are you going to do, sue me for smoking?"
After the girl finished, she took a sip of cigarettes and spit out a faint smoke.
After a brief silence, the assistant said again: "Can you tell me your relationship with Mr. Buzz?"
"I probably have been with him for more than a year. I like to do love with him. He is not afraid to make new attempts. I like that kind of man and can give me a lot of happiness," the girl snorted. The smoke, while unabashedly telling his own desires.
"Have you played s丨m?" the assistant asked again.
The girl still smiles: "You guessed it."
"Will you tie him up?"
"will not,"
"Have you ever tied him?"

No,
the girl once again denied:
Johnny likes to use his own hands, I like his hands.

After the girl finished the line, the assistant was about to continue, and Eric interrupted: "Okay, come here."
The girl sitting in the chair suddenly showed a disappointing look, and at the same time, there were some complaints in her heart. The fireflies gave too little preparation time. She received an audition invitation in the morning and rushed in, only less than an hour of preparation time.
However, although the heart complained, the girl did not dare to reveal it in front of the face-to-face youth. Otherwise, there is no hope at all: "Mr. Williams, I think, I can try again."

No,
Eric said.
Miss Nelson, although your shape is very suitable for the role of Catherine Cuume, but your performance makes me not see too much Catherine’s breath, you just showed too much convergence. It’s like walking carefully on a wooden bridge. I understand that this may be because you haven’t prepared enough time. But the most deadly point, I didn’t see the potential from you, one can release the kindness of Catherine. The potential of the field, so I can only say sorry."
Eric explained this patiently, and although the girl was still not reconciled, she did not ask for anything. After she got up and thanked her, she left the door and left.
After the girl left, Jeffrey couldn’t help but said: "Eric, I think, your mood is not right, you are too impatient. If we rest for half an hour, we also give those actresses More than half an hour of preparation time, there are only 11 people left now, and we have enough time to complete the audition."
Eric sighed and looked at the watch. It was indeed enough time. He had just eliminated eight auditors on the spot. If he continues this way, he will have nothing to gain today. The instinct heroine will continue to run aground.
"Notify them, rest for half an hour." Eric stood up and said to Jeffrey: "I am going out to breathe."
"Well, let's go." Jeffrey nodded.
Eric opened the door and the audition girls who were sitting on the corridor benches waited for him to come out. Involuntarily stood up.
"After half an hour of rest, you can go to the conference room over there and prepare," Eric said to the ladies and then walked to the other side of the corridor.
The remaining women glanced at each other, and several of them were eager to catch up, but in the end they did not move.
When I came to the bathroom at the end of the corridor, Eric just wanted to go in and wash her face, and a woman suddenly came out from the inside. Just hitting Eric, because it didn't stand still, fell to the ground, and Eric took a step back.
The girl was a little angry. After seeing Eric, she stood up in a panic: "i’m-sorry, Mr. Williams, I didn't mean it."
"It doesn't matter, I am not right," Eric shook his head. Looking at the girl with a very special eye opposite, said: "You call Joanna Pakula?"
The girl’s eyes lit up and she nodded quickly.
Yes. Mr. Williams, I don’t think you know me, right, audition over there...

"After half an hour of rest, you can prepare more," Eric said, his heart moving slightly, saying: "Miss Pacula, can you say it again?"
"What?" The girl heard the audition pause. There is no intention to go back, she is keenly aware that this is a good opportunity.
"Yes. Your first sentence."
Joanna Pakula thought about it, though it didn't know what it was. Still said: "i’m-sorry..."
"Yes, that's the sentence, say a few more times," Eric leaned against the corner of the wall, bowing his head and taking out the cigarette.
Joanna Pakula heard Eric let him apologize continuously, and suddenly felt a sigh of relief: "Mr. Williams, I just really didn't mean it."
"Wrong, not this sentence," Eric shook his head.
"i'm-sorry, i'm-sorry, i'm, sorry..." The girl clasped her small red purse in her hand and repeated it repeatedly. She felt that the young director was too embarrassed. I just accidentally bumped into him and just tossed myself. For a time, Joanna Pakula felt that today's role is definitely not with her, and she wants to brave the courage to go, but she still has a look of hope.
"Okay, stop," Eric finally interrupted the girl's repetition: "The accent is wrong, it's not good."
"..."
"I saw your information last night. Are you from Poland and used to be an actor in the Polish National Theatre?"
"Yes," the girl nodded.
"Why come to the United States, is the national theater a better third-rate actor than in Hollywood?"
Joanna Pakula was silent and said: "Because of political reasons..."
Eric nodded, no longer asked, he was not interested in political governance, carefully looked at Joanna Pakula in front of him, and the other side of the original instinct of the heroine Sharon Stone Years old, but compared to Sharon Stone, it is much older than the girl in front of it. It is said that the girl is now believed in her early twenties.
"I really can't see it, you are thirty-three years old," Eric said with emotion.
Joanna Pakula’s expression is a bit stunned, and women always don’t like to pay attention to their age.
Not to mention the feelings of these years, I feel a little sad. In 1980, she was under house arrest because of Poland’s political turmoil. She was once under house arrest and finally immigrated to the United States. The man who helped her immigrate did not care for her. Instead, I got married with another woman.
In the past few years, she wandered in Hollywood alone, feeling like a lonely ghost. Although she starred in the heroine in a low-cost horror movie last year, the movie only got more than one million pity. The box office did not bring any improvement to her career.
Joanna Pakula is more and more sad, the more she wants to be more sad, the man in front of her eyes, just plainly his fault, and she has to apologize repeatedly. It’s really awful, and the girl suddenly feels that the whole world is bullying her. Unconsciously, the eyes are full of tears.
"Amount, what's wrong with you," Eric saw Joanna Pakula shed tears, and suddenly felt helpless. He touched his pocket and finally found a paper towel and handed it over: "Don't cry." ""
The girl wiped her eyes with the paper towel, but the more she rubbed it, the more she felt so sad that she couldn’t help but choked: "You guys, the wicked Americans, who sent me to the United States, didn’t care, you...you It’s also a jerk. I just accidentally bumped into you. You just like that, bullying me, you bastards, bullying me.

Eric raised his hand in a panic, and saw the girl lingering with a less standard accent. Finally, she gradually became impatient and raised her voice: "Okay, stop."
The girl’s voice was stagnation, she touched her tears, and she woke up a little. She suddenly realized what she was doing now, and soon regretted it. This time the opportunity was completely ruined.
When the girl stopped crying, Eric asked: "Yes, I didn't look carefully last night. How do you want to play this movie?"
"what?"
"I mean, "Instinct,"" Eric continued.
"What happened then," Joanna Pakula asked softly in confusion.
Eric thought for a moment and said, "I don't want you to star in this movie. You should go to the mainstream movies. Since you can enter the Polish National Theatre, there must be no problem in acting."
"Do you think I don't want to play mainstream movies?" Joanna Pakula said: "But, where do I have such an opportunity, I have participated in many auditions, and once I have succeeded, they can always find various Every reason refuses me, and I can’t compete with local actors."
Eric thought for a moment and said, "Let's do it, you don't participate in the audition today." (To be continued)
