A... small thing? Eric dragged the girl to his thigh and pinched the baby's face lightly: Did something go wrong?

How is it possible, I won't cause trouble! Drew immediately denied: It's like this, in order to buy the copyright of this movie, didn't I find a filmmaker.

Oh, Eric immediately understood: You promised the other party a benefit, but you have no ability to fulfill it, and this benefit must be related to me, right?

Eric, you are so smart! The girl shrank in Eric's arms and raised her face in admiration.

Okay, stop pretending, and explain honestly! Eric couldn't help knocking on the door of Ya's head with a sullen face, which caused another struggle and protest.

Actually, it's nothing, Xiao Nizi gave Eric a dose of vaccination before she said, When I was looking for an agent, a guy named Lawrence Bender happened to be taking his friends at a party. Come up to me, hold a script, and say they want me to pass it on to you, they want you to invest.

They can't get in touch with me, it's nothing to find you, that's a good explanation. But why would the other party want to invest in me? There are so many film companies, the other party's first choice should be the six major film companies, even if it is not the six, the other two Third-tier film companies should also be the first choice, right?

Drew put his arms around Eric's neck and smiled: Because you are rich, the newspapers are now full of news that you have received hundreds of millions of dollars.

Eric shrugged: The share of Home Alone is running out. Even if you get the share of Fengyue, if you want to acquire a film company to establish a channel, it will definitely be spent soon. The share of Dark War I have to save it to pay tax next year, but I have to pay 35% of the income tax. After all, I don’t have much cash. Oh, I just realized that one year is a waste of money. There's no money left in the field.

The girl patted on the shoulder playfully: Don't worry, Mr. Billionaire, if you have no money, I will support you.

If only a woman told me that in my last life, Eric sighed with a smile: Okay, let's move on to your topic, what's that guy's name?

Lawrence Bender, the reason why he wants to invest in you is because they are both very young, and even if the script is good, those film companies will not trust him and his friends to make the film, after all, as long as It’s a more formal movie, and it’s a million-dollar investment, no matter how small. So, you get the idea.”

Then you agreed, and let him be your agent... Is he capable of being your agent? Eric thought of another question.

That guy is very smart. He even started a film company with his friends. You know, it's the kind of shell company that paid a registration fee to apply for it. There is nothing. There are many film companies like Hollywood. He made a very low-budget film, he was the producer himself, and the friend was the director and screenwriter, but after the production was completed, the negatives were burnt due to a fire.”

What a pity, Lawrence Bender... um, wait, Lawrence Bender? Eric suddenly raised his voice.

Huh? Drew nodded, not knowing why.

Eric put the girl down from his knees,

Pointing to the coffee table: Spell me his name?

Although Drew was a little confused, he still walked to the coffee table, reached out and dipped some water in the teacup, thought for a moment, and then wrote two words on the coffee table with some uncertainty: Should... it should be like this, right? After writing, the little girl turned her head and asked Ai Rui uncertainly.

Eric covered his forehead, replaced the subtitle O in 'Laorence' with a W to become 'Lawrence', and knocked on the head of the cute girl at the same time: I really want to know that you do everything in school. What's wrong, you can't spell such a simple name, oh, by the way, I paid such a large sponsorship fee to send you to school, and I have never seen your transcript. I'll take a look next time. .

Hey, don't you need this? The girl grinned with a small mouth, as if she was ready to run away at any time.

Eric didn't pursue it any further. Looking at the name on the coffee table, it was exactly the same as the name in his memory. The reason why Eric didn't reflect when Drew just mentioned it was because he read English names in his previous life. , is generally pronounced in Chinese, and Drew's accent is completely different from the English that Eric learned in his previous life, so he didn't react.

Drew, what's the name of Lawrence Bender's? Eric asked again.

The girl scratched her head, tilted her head and thought for a while: It seems like... maybe... what is it called Quentin Tarantino, Drew asked when he saw Eric's expression changed obviously. : Eric, don't you know them?

Eric calmed down and didn't let the girl see any more abnormalities. He quickly thought of an excuse, nodded and admitted: I heard that, I just said that when you said your name, there was a feeling of deja vu. It seems that when I was chatting with people, I listened to it as a funny thing, it was these two unlucky bastards who made a movie together, and the filming was completed, and the negatives were all burned.

Eric didn't mention who to talk to, and what he said was very vague, so the girl went back to find someone to verify, but the girl obviously didn't have any doubts, and she believed it after hearing Eric's explanation.

So, you're saying they want me to invest in their film and leave you the script? Eric asked.

Drew shook his head: No, I didn't ask for it, and they didn't take the initiative to give it. I wanted to tell you about this first. If you don't agree, I'll just send them off.

This is not good. Since we have promised, we can't be so condescending. We will definitely expand the production business in the future. Although they are still two little people, it will definitely have a little impact if you spread the word about your dealings with them. , Eric sat back on the sofa again and said, Just tomorrow, at noon tomorrow, you take them to the set of Friends, there is an hour lunch break between the noon shooting, let them bring the script, and I will take a look.

Eric, isn't this too much trouble, what are you doing with them, I think it's a waste of time, that... Kun... Quentin Tarantino is only in his twenties, what good script can he write? , Which famous Hollywood screenwriter is not in his 40s, why don't I ask you to take a look at the script?

Eric smiled: Have you forgotten, I'm not yet twenty years old?

Hehe, I think you are at least forty years old, the girl said as she leaned over to Eric.

This intuition... is too accurate!

Eric touched Xiao Nizi's hair, but he was relieved quickly. With such a shrewd temper of the girl, he got along day and night, and it was not surprising to find that this problem of his mental age.

Okay, that's it, bring them over tomorrow, but don't be late, you know, I'm very busy.

Well, Drew responded, and quickly rubbed against Eric like a spoiled child: Well, Eric, I'm done with this, is there a reward?

Eric patted the girl's back: Yes, I helped you become a film company, but you are not yet an adult, so I temporarily put it in my name, and I will transfer it to you when you are eighteen years old. As for The copyright of Golden Jade League purchased should be placed under the name of this company.

Wow, tell me, what's your name? The girl's eyes were bright.

Flower-Films.

Uh... such a rustic name, can you change it?

Rustic?

Eric stared at the girl's baby face. This is the name you gave yourself in the previous life: How can it be rustic, let me hear it?

Drew put his head on Eric's chest, and after thinking for a while, he raised his head a little frustratedly: Then... let's take Huahua Pictures first.

Eric smiled and rubbed the girl's head: Okay, it's so late, go to sleep.

The girl grabbed Eric's arm to stop him from standing up: No, no, don't worry, Eric, there is still a month left in the summer vacation. Give me something to do sooner, such as buying another movie copyright. ?

Well...let me think about it, I'll make a list for you tomorrow, go to bed earlier now, Eric said.

Don't perfunctory me, I will do it tomorrow! The girl insisted.

No problem, I'll definitely give it to you tomorrow. Eric got up and walked to the stairs. Instead of going directly to the bedroom, he walked into the study and saw the girl following, Eric said, Don't disturb me. I am, you go to bed first, you always stay up all night be careful you will become ugly before the age of 30.

Humph! The girl frowned and turned to the bedroom unwillingly.

Eric was at the lower left in front of the desk, found a notebook and spread it in front of him, picked up a pen, and remembered what had just happened, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He never thought that Quentin Tarantino, who was known as a 'ghost' in his previous life, would come up to him. Although Lawrence Bender is not as famous as Quentin, the two are actually old partners. A series of Quentin movies are produced by Lawrence Bender.

However, since two guys who should have become famous two years later came together because of their butterfly effect, I wonder if the famous Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction in their previous lives will still appear. After all, the butterfly effect The influence of the movie is really big, maybe it's just a thought, and Quentin missed the idea of ​​these two movies. At the same time, Eric is also curious about what script Quentin will come up with tomorrow.
