Chapter 633 Why Do You Say It Again?
In a simple office inside the Firefly Studios studio in Los Angeles.
Cindy Crawford felt that her thoughts just now were asking for trouble. Her agent, Jeremy, was carefully reading a copy of her supermodels, Linda Evangelinsta and Christie During. The same endorsement contract was signed, and the hateful man opposite who seemed to have nothing to do kept looking at her with interest. If this look is full of infatuation, covetousness and even undisguised ** like other men, she will not feel anything, and may even be a little complacent. However, this man's eyes didn't look like he was looking at a beautiful woman at all, more like he was admiring a beautiful pet.
The office door was knocked lightly, and after getting permission, a staff member brought in Cindy Crawford's clothes.
Cindy Crawford didn't even want to find a room to replace the Neiyi suit she just put on in the office. She put the black long skirt on her body in the office. She finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat back on the chair, slightly dissatisfied. Eric stared at the opposite.
Eric showed a faint smile and said softly: "It's better to wear clothes."
"Mr. Williams," Cindy Crawford finally couldn't help it, and countered, "Are you talking about a... Barbie?"
Eric shook his head and said, "Of course not, you are much prettier than Barbie. Oh, but I know a girl who looks just like a real Barbie, and people can't help but want to be there. Pinch your little face."
Cindy Crawford noticed that when Eric said these words, the corner of Eric's mouth suddenly showed a soft and even doting smile, and a trace of jealousy appeared. In front of such a beautiful woman, this hateful guy can still think of other women so fascinatedly. , and the expression is so gentle, it is simply unreasonable.
Thinking of the recent situation again, the resentment and grievances in Cindy Crawford's heart poured out again. Said: "Mr. Williams, I am twenty-eight years old this year."
Eric is not stingy with the compliments that are unique to Westerners, saying: "Compared to others, your maintenance is really good. I believe you will still be so bright and attractive in ten years."
Although I couldn't hear much sincerity in Eric's tone, Cindy Crawford felt a lot more comfortable, but her tone seemed more resentful: "But as a model, after the age of 30, you will no longer be able to interact with the new generation. It took me half a year. I barely got a chance in Hollywood, just to continue my career. Why do you have to embarrass a little woman like me?"
Eric smiled and said, "Do you also think I deliberately messed up your character?"
Cindy Crawford did not answer,
But made a look of it, isn't it?
Eric said: "This thing does have something to do with me, but I didn't mess with your character, but that movie project went wrong. And, if everything goes according to the established trajectory, that movie will become your in Hollywood. The beginning will be the end.”
Cindy Crawford thought of Joe Silver's gloomy face that night. Suddenly I understood what Eric said.
However, she also quickly caught another loophole and said, "The role that originally belonged to me fell into the hands of Claudia Schiffer, how do you explain this, don't you worry that this film will become a Laudia Schiffer's Hollywood terminus?"
"This matter is an emergency. That guy Joe Silver wants to pull me into the game through Claudia," Eric said without denying his relationship with Claudia, "I didn't know in advance. I don't plan to intervene afterwards. As for the impact, it's just for you. Not to mention that Joe Silver will definitely adjust the project, even if Claudia fails. You think I will let her Was it affected?"
Cindy Crawford felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart, moved her lips, but said nothing.
Jeremy, who had been sitting beside him and listened secretly, finally breathed a sigh of relief, a little fortunate that Eric didn't mind Cindy Crawford's little provocation.
He also understood at this time. The whole thing Cindy Crawford played is a little bug who was accidentally trampled to death by passers-by. Cindy Crawford's accusation against Eric was like a bug's relatives suing passersby for murder. , which not only will not attract the attention of passers-by, but will make people feel ridiculous and absurd.
After the two were quiet, Jeremy was about to do his job as an agent to discuss the contract with Eric, but thought of what had just happened. He suddenly felt that perhaps it would be more appropriate for Cindy Crawford to speak on her own, because beauty always has more tolerance.
While Cindy Crawford has a higher public profile than Linda Evangelinsta and Kristy Turrington, Jeremy has little to say about the deal being treated the same as the other two Dissatisfied, he just pushed the contract to Cindy Crawford and pointed to one of the clauses that he felt necessary to bargain.
Seeing the gestures of the two of them, Eric took the initiative to say, "If you need to discuss privately, I can avoid it."
"No need," Cindy Crawford quickly raised her head and said to Eric: "Mr. Williams, we have no objection to this contract, but is the five-year contract too long? Some?"
Eric said: "If you think it's long, we can sign for two years."
Cindy Crawford and Jeremy suddenly looked at each other, they almost thought they heard it wrong, it was too good to talk.
However, Eric didn't let them 'disappointed', and quickly said: "However, before making a decision, you can look at the first page of the contract... It should be the seventh page, I don't remember which one it is, The contract states that Party A will use its own media resources to help its spokespersons increase their personal fame and public influence. However, if you are unwilling to sign a five-year contract, neither LTD nor Firefly will be able to use too many resources Leaning on you, not only that, we will also train your successor from now on, and pour the media resources that originally belonged to you on her. After your contract expires, that girl can directly take your place. "
The channels through which models want to build and maintain their own fame are actually very narrow. Except for those who go out of their way to have scandals with movie stars, singers or football stars, the more orthodox way is to continuously land on magazine covers in various ways, so people also It is always seen that some supermodel profiles will always add a qualification that has been on the covers of many well-known magazines.
Jeremy just noticed the contract that Eric said. It's just because this clause seems too general and doesn't give any specific promises at all, so he didn't pay attention, at this time. Hearing Eric specifically mentioning the inherent connection between this clause and the five-year contract, the two suddenly realized the gold content of this seemingly inconspicuous contract.
Firefly, a huge media group involved in all aspects of mainstream media such as movies and TV, possesses media resources that are definitely not comparable to simple print media. The impact is absolutely no less than being on 100 magazines. The more famous the model is, the higher the endorsement fee from the merchant. In the contract given by Eric, although it stipulates that the endorsement work related to Wei Mi must be the first priority at all times, but Except for Neiyi brands in the same industry, they are not prohibited from accepting endorsement contracts for other products. Then, if Firefly gives them media resources in accordance with the contract, Cindy Crawford believes that her endorsement value on any brand in the future will definitely be a lot higher than before.
Although his heart was already moving, Cindy Crawford wisely asked: "Mr. Williams, about this clause. Can you be more specific?"
"Specifically, such as movie roles, cameo opportunities in TV dramas, invitations for talk show guests, exclusive interviews in traditional paper media, publicity in online media, etc., even if you write a book on beauty and maintenance, as long as you like it. It's not too bad, Firefly can help you contact publishing and marketing. Because the future popularity of your five main spokespersons also means the exposure of the Victoria's Secret brand, so you can rest assured. Firefly will never begrudge these resources," Dayton After a while, Eric looked at Cindy Crawford's glamorous face again and said, "Actually. Now there is a very good opportunity. If you can't miss the time, I can recommend you to try it. The 17th Bond girl character of 007, although the previous Bond girls in the 007 series were all vases, the character in this one is very different from the previous one, and it will definitely bring a good reputation to the actor."
Eric is talking about the villain Bond girl played by Famke Janssen in the previous life "Goldeneye". The wildness and rebelliousness, bloodthirsty and madness of the Russian-American female agent left a very deep impression on the audience, and also allowed Famke Janssen to open up the situation in Hollywood. Compared to the unlucky vase female character in "Fighting **", this villain Bond girl is definitely 100 times stronger, but now Famke Janssen has started filming the fifth "X-Files" and can't squeeze out the schedule, Eric can only let MGM pick the right candidates.
Cindy Crawford was just about to try to get Eric to refine these promises into a specific contract. Hearing his last sentence, his eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Mr. Williams, I can participate in the show while I'm in it. While preparing for the catwalk, you have just seen my steps, I believe that I definitely don't need to undergo a long preparation training like those little rookies, right?"
Saying that, the girl also threw a charming and charming look at Eric.
Eric shook his head unmoved: "No, you can only choose one."
"Then I..."
"And only the first option can be selected."
Cindy Crawford was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that she could only choose the former. The loss flashed in her eyes, but the girl still complained unwillingly: "Mr. Williams, you are really inhumane."
The girl's smooth and easy style changes made Eric once again have the idea of destroying demons and demons.
Well, why say it again?
With a light cough, putting aside these messy thoughts, Eric said, "If there are no other questions, I will contact Miss Emily Brighton, and you can sign the contract tomorrow."
Cindy Crawford wanted to say something, but was stopped by Eric waving.
"Miss Crawford, I know what you're trying to say. This clause on the promise of media resources is indeed a bit general, but you should be aware that even if I remove this clause, few would refuse this contract, five years. Although the endorsement fee of 10 million US dollars per time is not the highest and the workload is a bit large, there are not many people who are worth more than this figure in the entire model circle. As long as everyone can cooperate happily. I will definitely not be stingy to give you more in the future. Much reward."
After Eric finished speaking, Cindy Crawford wisely chose to stop and said, "Then, I have no problem. Mr. Williams."
"Okay, then tell me about my request," Eric glanced at Cindy Crawford again and asked, "How much do you weigh now?"
Cindy Crawford was suddenly a little embarrassed because she was busy with her entry into Hollywood for the past six months. She is no longer as cautious about her body control as she used to be. After hesitating, the girl answered honestly: "136 pounds."
136 pounds is equivalent to 61 kilograms, which is not overweight for Cindy Crawford, who is nearly 1.8 meters tall.
However, Eric remembered Cindy Crawford's figure in Nei's body just now, shook his head and said, "In two months, I want to see the beautiful vest line, is that okay?"
Cindy Crawford said in her heart that I can answer or not, but this little thought just swirled in her mind, and she changed her posture in a charming way. Showing the curves of his body, he nodded amusedly: "Of course there is no problem, Mr. Williams, but I already have a vest line, maybe you didn't notice it just now."
Eric smiled and nodded playfully: "It doesn't matter, there will definitely be a chance next time."
Of course, it's not that Eric can't hear some hints in the girl's tone, but he is more used to hunting now, rather than being a prey.
Cindy Crawford found that she couldn't make Eric take the initiative to send out a date invitation with such an obvious hint, and continued politely with a shy expression, and agreed a signing time. Take the agent and leave unhappy.
...
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Kelly Haynes pushed open the door and walked into Eric's office in the studio, and found that there was a black piano inside. Eric, who was sitting next to the piano, was playing a song fascinatedly. Unfamiliar tune.
Although the syllables under Eric's fingertips are slightly jerky. But the sad and lazy melody still has a kind of contagious power of gathering and not dispersing, which makes people unconsciously feel a sense of despair that is almost tearful.
Kelly, who was holding a few thick documents, leaned against the door in a daze, staring at the focused back.
You are already so good, so dazzling, so powerful, what else can cause your inner loneliness?
The piano sound suddenly stopped. Eric picked up the pencil and was about to add something to the unfinished score. He felt the breath behind him, turned his head, and found Kelly standing there with tears in her eyes, with a motherly pity in her expression.
Eric quickly got up and came to Kelly's side, took the thick stack of documents and threw them aside, hugged the woman in his arms, and said softly, "Why are you crying?"
Kelly, who was leaning on Eric's arms, suddenly felt a little girl-like shyness, shook her head and whispered: "No, I just... I brought the report you asked for, and a special one sent by Mr. Buffett. letter."
Eric recalled Kelly's expression just now, and suddenly smiled: "Have you been here for a while?"
Kelly nodded and said, "I knocked on the door, but you didn't hear it."
Eric almost understood what was going on, shook his head and said, "It seems that I really failed."
Kelly didn't understand what Eric was talking about, but Eric had already taken her little hand, came to sit on the bench of the piano plate, and said, "Come and see the new song I wrote, can you play the piano? ?"
"Um."
Kelly nodded, took over Eric and just completed a small part of the score and swept it again, her slender fingers couldn't help but put it on the keys, and the tune just played again without hindrance.
Eric could hear instantly that Kelly's piano level could definitely beat him by ten blocks, and said, "I would have called you over if I knew it earlier, and I wouldn't have written it so painfully."
Kelly picked up the pencil, corrected a few small mistakes in Eric's score, and asked softly, "Why did you write such a sad song?"
"The background song written for the big show, but your reaction is not what I want, so I just said that I failed," Eric stroked his fingers lightly on the keys and said, "This song is to express It's not sadness, but a sense of disillusionment after the ideal is broken. In the story, the high-spirited young man chased half his life for the illusory dream in his heart, became famous, and suddenly looked back, only to realize that things were different from others, and the luxurious life was not his What I want is that the girl of the year is no longer an angel in the imagination, but she doesn't want to wake up, so she sinks in the glitz, sinks, and then dies."
Kelly looked at Eric's profile in a trance and murmured, "The Great Gatsby?"
"Yeah," Eric leaned over with a smile, kissed Kelly's lips lightly, and said half-truly, "Can you not be so smart, it will make me very stressed."
With infatuation and admiration in her eyes, Kelly said, "Who can be as smart as you? I have studied piano for so many years, but I will never be able to write such a piece."
"Don't worship me, it will make me feel like a liar."
"You've deceived everything from me," Kelly blurted out, but then regretted it, her face was ruddy, her eyes were dodging, and she said quietly, "Then, what's the name of this song?"
""Fenghua Zhengmao"."
Eric put half of the score on the shelf and said, "You play it, and I'll sing it to you."
The slow tune sounded again, Eric sang lightly after pondering for a while. Although the slightly hoarse male voice could not match the innocence and desolation of Lana Del Rey, it had a different kind of decadence.
