Chapter 538: awkward

Chapter 538
Thinking of Rachel telling herself to take the initiative, Caroline took a deep breath and patted the stack of newspapers in her hand before I opened Eric with the spare room card that Ellensey had just given her. The door of the gram suite.
It’s already at 8:30 in the morning. Carolyn’s translation as Eric last night, and he attended a cocktail party. Of course, she didn’t drink any wine, but Eric could not stop the enthusiasm of the host family. There are so many, so I haven't gotten up until now.
Caroline had breakfast, walked back to a nearby park, and just met Allen’s newspaper ready to wake up Eric. Allen had a very good impression of this girl who politely said hello to him. He also knew that Caroline likes Eric and offered to give the girl a chance.
Pushing open the door of the deluxe suite, Caroline's small head went into the room and glanced at it. He found that no one in the living room had walked in. Put the newspaper in his hand on the coffee table, Caroline walked to the door of the bedroom, and reached out and tapped a few times.
"Slightly wait."
There was a voice in the bedroom immediately, and the girl was shocked. Before she could respond, the bedroom door was suddenly pulled open. Then, a man and a woman stayed there.
Eric just woke up and thought that Allen was outside, just remembering that one thing was forgotten yesterday, and he planned to let the assistant call Los Angeles and didn't want to open the door.
Caroline never had the experience of getting a man to get up. Whenever he thought that Eric would only run in a boxer, he would open the door for himself. The girl was originally a little petite. After opening the door, the eyes first fell on the muscle line of Eric's bodybuilding body, then fell, and then screamed and turned around. Both hands couldn't help but hold on to her hot face.
Eric, who was also a bit worried, was awakened by the girl's squeaky voice. She saw Caroline turning around and covering her face with a cute look. She couldn't help but smile and turned to pick up her clothes and put it on her body. "It’s cheaper to run in the early morning. Oh, I can eat a big loss now, I just don’t know if I can make it back.

Carolyn slammed her feet and knew that Eric was joking, but couldn’t help but argue: "I don't, I just... I just came to send you the newspaper."
Eric listened to Caroline's voice with a vibrato. I knew that the girl was tender and didn't dare to continue to tease. She dressed the clothes in threes and twos and said, "Okay, you can turn around."
Caroline originally wanted to escape. However, she knows that her face must be covered with a red cloth. If she goes out, she must be laughed and killed, so she resists the urge to escape, but she hears Eric’s words. The girl is not willing to turn around, still carrying Eric Road: "Eric, you should go to wash first. I will call you for breakfast."
"Okay, thank you," Eric did not refuse. Walk towards the bathroom.
After more than ten minutes, Eric walked out of the bedroom again. Caroline’s figure had disappeared without a trace. Eric shook his head with a smile and felt a little emotion in Hollywood. He could never see such simple and shy in Hollywood. Girl's.
Come to Europe again. Eric made a call to London in accordance with the original agreement. I didn't expect Caroline to come over that day. Eric certainly understands the girl’s thoughts on herself. However, the deeper the innocent personality of Caroline. The more Eric feels, perhaps the girl should continue to return to her original life track. The Vanity Fair in Hollywood is definitely not suitable for girls who have no idea. Bringing her in will only hurt her.
Thinking about these things, Eric thought that Caroline didn't help her to call for breakfast. She was planning to pick up the phone and let the restaurant send some breakfast. The hotel's waiter rang the doorbell.
The German premiere of Jurassic Park was held a few days ago, but the premiere of Paris will take place on July 14th, and Eric will continue to visit Berlin’s corners during the day. In the evening, you can't hide all kinds of invitations.
Germany is the most developed country in Europe. Its economic strength was once equal to Japan after the war. If it were not the impact of the Cold War, Germany’s economic strength would definitely not be much worse than Japan’s second largest economy, Japan. However, even so, the German national strength of this era is still the strongest in Europe, and the gross national product is even worth the second and third total of the two countries in Britain and France.
The economic development means that there is a lot of money in hand. Although the Germans do not have the security sense of the Japanese to deal with the industry, they are also very keen on investing abroad. And because of the special tax policy stimulus and the rapid development of Hollywood, investing in Hollywood movies is one of the most popular investment methods in Germany.
In order to stimulate the development of the film, the German government has stipulated that the German investment in the film does not need to pay taxes, and Germany's personal income tax is as high as 51%, that is, if you earn 1 million a year, if you do not invest. You need to pay 510,000 personal income tax, but if you invest this money in film production, this 1 million does not need to pay personal income tax, which is equivalent to investors investing 510,000 tax. And if the 1 million in the movie doubled the profit and became 2 million US dollars, then after paying the personal income tax, the remaining money is basically equal to the exemption of the original personal income tax, and even if it is the money It has not doubled, but it has earned a large part, which is equivalent to exempting a part of the tax to a certain extent.
With this in mind, although the risk of film investment is very large, there are still many German investors who have thrown large sums of money into Hollywood. This year's summer record, the two films "Kuanling Xiongfeng" and "The Last Action Hero", most of the production funds come from the German film fund.
Strictly speaking, the firefly's "Jurassic Park" has intensified the loss of these two major productions to a certain extent. Schwarzenegger's "Recent Action Heroes" is basically crushed by "Jurassic Park". In the past, when Eric arrived in Berlin, he was still eagerly sought after by many German film companies and film funds, and experienced the failure of "The Bear King" and "The Last Action Hero". The Germans are also smarter. They understand that simply inviting big stars to make blockbusters is not so safe. It is the safest to find the right investment target. Now, in the Jurassic Park, the global crazy refreshing of the box office record, Firefly Film is definitely the most suitable investment target.
These days in Erik in Berlin. Most of the invitations received were from lobbyists of some German film foundations. At the same time, he also began to consider this issue. At present, the average budget cost of each major movie of Hollywood studios is still around 30 million US dollars, and the budget is not too high. The average film company produces 20 movies per year. The required cash flow for the production of fireflies can be easily digested. At present, Firefly Pictures rarely introduces external film production funds.
However, with the advent of the big filmmaking era, the average of the budget for each movie in the future is likely to easily break through the $100 million mark. Although Eric is still very confident, the fireflies at that time can also withstand such huge capital needs. Quantity, but it is not cost-effective to do so. Eric’s understanding of Hollywood over the years. He understands that Hollywood's biggest advantage is to use other people's money to make movies and earn their own profits. Because the risk of film investment is very high, in general, Hollywood's external investors don't make as much money as they think. The money invested in Hollywood can generate 10% to 15% of profits every year, which is already very rich. The rate of return is gone.
of course. Because other film companies don't have Eric's golden finger, movie investment always has a profit, so they can leave most of their profits to themselves with the clever rules of Hollywood. And pass more losses to outside investors. But this rule is not so try for fireflies. Others make movies in gambling, but Eric, who can see through the dice, is not. Take the recent Jurassic Park. If you have a global box office of $1 billion in movies, you have introduced external investment. When you finally tell the investors that the business has not made money, the investors will not make a fuss. strange.
After all. Most movies in Hollywood now introduce a lot of investor-produced project operation mechanism to reduce investment risks. but. For fireflies, this risk is much smaller in front of Eric. Completely within the firefighter's own tolerance, this time to operate in accordance with the rules of Hollywood, it is not to share the risk, but to share the profits.
Until breakfast was finished, Eric did not figure out what a more feasible operation plan, and a simple breakfast did not know how to eat more than nine o'clock.
Today is just Monday, the weekend of the Jurassic Park's new weekend box office is not out of the firefly statistics department's forecast, and the "World of Earth crash" three days of the first weekend performance is much better than Eric's imagination, got it More than 47 million US dollars in the North American box office, it is expected that the first week of the box office is likely to exceed 70 million, directly to the cost line, and Pixar's 3d animated film "Bug Crisis" North American total box office is also broken.
When the newspaper was about to be turned over, the doorbell rang again and Eric opened the door, this time it was Allen.
"You came just right. A few days ago, I asked Disney to collect some information from potential computer animation studios. You took the time to help me ask, see how they are prepared. If it is good, send me a copy of the information. ""
"I know, is there anything else?" Allen nodded and remembered.
Eric shook his head and suddenly said: "And, don't let Caroline do this kind of thing, her personality is too shy, just a little embarrassed."
Allen seemed to know something. He smiled a little and said: "I am sorry, Eric, I didn't think so much."
"Right, what are you coming over?"
"Miss Wilson asked me to ask you, I can't go out to play today," Alan's face was more ridiculous.
Eric looked at his watch and nodded, "Okay, I will pass."
"She is waiting for you downstairs," Allen said at last, and turned and left.
Eric had already set the itinerary today. He decided to go to the Museum Island in Berlin to take a look and return to the bedroom to change a pair of shoes. Simply clean up and Eric walked out of the room.
Sitting in the downstairs hall of the hotel, looking at a magazine, Caroline came to the face as usual, but when I saw Eric, the girl’s face couldn’t help but redeem, let Eric produce one. The urge to pinch, to be honest, this thought has been hovering more than once in his mind.
"Let's go," although Eric's thoughts were evil, Eric did not show it. After politely greeting the girl, she took her out.
Berlin at this time was not too prosperous because the Cold War was divided into East and West Berlin. At that time, most of Berlin was controlled by the Soviet Union, and the German capital moved to Bonn in the west. However, after the merger of East and West Germany in 1990, everyone unanimously decided to move the capital back to Berlin again, and with the strong economic strength accumulated by West Germany, Berlin's infrastructure construction is very rapid.
Berlin's public transport system is very developed, or the entire German public transport system is very developed, two people did not drive, and walked toward the subway station, Eric also simply took two bodyguards to follow, and soon took the subway To the famous Museum Island in Berlin.
The egg still couldn't help but redden, let Eric produce an impulse to pinch, and to be honest, this thought has been hovering more than once in his mind.
