America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM.

Chapter 302 300. Classmate Liu, how do you thank me?
"Eric, oh my god! I actually got a call yesterday afternoon."

As soon as the door was closed, Xiao Liu couldn't wait to throw himself into Eric's arms.

Well……

After a passionate kiss, Eric gently rubbed her little bunny and asked, "What was on the phone?"

"It was Yan Jing who called. The company wanted to terminate my contract without any additional conditions."

"My mother was very happy when she found out. She flew back overnight. It was afternoon when she arrived, so she signed it quickly to avoid any further complications."

"You got Chen Jinfei! You really got him!"

Eric laughed: "The facts are right in front of you, why don't you believe it?"

Since I met Todd Meister last week, he has been very efficient.

After a few days, Chen Jinfei couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to find Zhou Xiaopeng.

I sent a message to Eric through Lao Zhou, expressing my willingness to release the person and hoping that this would be the end of it. From now on, you go your way and I go mine, and we just pretend we don't know each other.

Old Zhou is an interesting person. Chen Jinfei didn't give him face last time, but he is showing off this time.

After delaying the other party for two days, Chen Jinfei initially demanded monetary compensation, but later he simply refused to ask for any compensation at all.

He must have been under pressure from his partners. It's not worth it for a woman.

"No, that's not what I meant. How could I not trust you? I'm just worried about whether he has made excessive demands."

"My mother said that Chen Jinfei was very determined and would not let me go even if I killed him. How did you do that?"

Eric tightened his fingers slightly and unhooked the bra through the clothes.

"Some people are conceited. If he made some requests when you first contacted him, it would be fine. It doesn't matter if you satisfy him. After all, he has spent a lot of money to support you."

"But it's too late now. Chen Jinfei is no longer qualified to make demands. I asked my friends to do something to his company."

"He was a coward, but it also shows that he is indeed an excellent businessman and has a clear mind when assessing the situation."

"Krystal, do you watch football?"

"Huh? Football? I hear some news occasionally, but I don't pay much attention to it." Liu Yifei was a little surprised as to why the topic suddenly got to football.

"If you watch football, you'll know that after scoring a goal, players often slide on the grass to celebrate."

"This is exactly what Chen Jinfei is doing now. He is so natural and transparent. He is eager to send you and your daughter away and cut off all ties with them."

Hahahaha...

When Xiao Liu heard this metaphor, a picture flashed through his mind and he couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh.

"I've gotten the job done for you. Your mother isn't here. How do you think you can repay me?" Eric asked, pinching her chin.

Liu Yifei had already made plans for the arrival of this day.

There was no struggle, no refusal, but she took the initiative to put her arms around Eric's neck.

The two kissed each other passionately, and at the same time, they took off their clothes one by one.

Eric kept going down. As the saying goes, the road is long and arduous, but I will search for it up and down.

"Have you finished watching Dragon Ball?"

"what?"

"Humph!"

"what!"

There is a secret sorrow and hidden hatred, at this time silence is better than words.

After a fierce battle, both of them fell into a deep sleep. After an unknown amount of time, a rapid phone call rang.

Liu Yifei opened her eyes and found that it was her mother calling.

"Xixi, the contract has been terminated. I just terminated the contract with Hongxingwu!" Liu Xiaoli could not hide her excitement on the phone.

"Great! I'm finally free! Eric, you're awesome, muah!"

Hearing this, Xiao Liu suddenly sucked Eric's face.

"Who? Eric? You're with him?"

"Yes, just be with me." Eric answered without hesitation. He was too lazy to pretend when the food was already in his mouth.

"You. You! It's up to you. I don't care!"

Doodle
After hanging up the phone, Liu Xiaoli finally understood. She couldn't prevent it, she couldn't prevent it at all. Her daughter's heart had already been stolen.

On the other hand, stimulated by the good news, the two people's interest was rekindled.

......................................................

In just over a month, "The Conjuring" and "Mean Girls" were all taken off the screen.

In the end, "The Conjuring" grossed $9670 million in North America, $1.21 million overseas, and over $2 million worldwide.

Compared with the cost of more than 1000 million, the exaggerated return rate of more than 20 times, it would be modest to say that it was a huge profit.

Then something funny happened. A lot of offers were handed to James Wan.

From the six major companies, major second-tier labels, third-tier small workshops, and even Lionsgate, which had been cheated, once again extended an olive branch.

As for the words that belittled and insulted him half a year ago because of "Dead Silence", no one would mention it again.

In Hollywood, the rule is simple: as long as you can help me make money, you are my dad.

Disney even offered a package of $1500 million plus dividends, hoping to bring James Wan over.

But after the failure of "Dead Silence", James Wan's thinking has become more mature. He still needs more time to grow. Besides, there are still many elements in the Conjuring universe that attract him. Cooperating with MGM is the best solution at the moment.

So he decisively rejected those lucrative offers and after a break, he started writing new scripts.

"Mean Girls" grossed $5100 million in North America and $1.03 million worldwide, barely breaking the $ million mark.

It was unlikely to break 100 million yuan originally, after all, the summer schedule is very tight. According to its box office performance, it should have been taken off the screen a week ago.

But in order to achieve a more impressive result, MGM still communicated with the theaters and let the movie be shown for an extra week, which achieved the goal. However, an extra week of showing the movie would cost an extra week, and although the box office might be better, the actual share of the money received would be less.

For this, Daddario was naturally grateful and could say that she was the heroine of the billion-dollar club in the future.

So with nibbling and biting, Eric unlocked several new positions.

At night, in the Olsen family's villa, or Eric's palace, everyone had their own room and keys were given to them after they all slept together.

Tonight is the Emmy Awards ceremony, the biggest event in the television industry, known as the Oscars of television.

Although this year's Emmy Awards are given to programs broadcast during prime time, Lionheart's routine of releasing all the episodes at once doesn't seem to fit the bill.

But to say that it is completely unrelated, it seems to make sense that it can be watched 24 hours a day, and prime time is of course included.

Besides, Lionheart Network has produced so many hits this year, and it would be difficult to explain to the audience if it pretended to be blind and ignored them.

"Come here quickly, it's about to begin!"

Elizabeth yelled at the top of her lungs, and then there was a crisp clattering sound, and Eric seemed to hear the sound of mahjong tiles falling to the ground.

"Too hot, baby! You actually flipped the table, I was about to lose!" Mary pointed at Gadot and yelled.

Gadot sat next to Eric with an innocent look on her face: "I didn't mean to do that. Elizabeth's voice was so sharp that it scared me."

"You obviously have bad cards, you did it on purpose, you must have done it on purpose!"

Eric grabbed the banana next to him and stuffed it into Mary's mouth: "Stop arguing, girls. Let's look forward to it. We can take home a few trophies this time."

At the Temple Theatre, the camera swept across the entire venue, where countless stars were sitting.

There are movie stars, TV stars, variety show masters, socialites, popular singers, and so on.

"Over there! I saw the House of Cards crew, Kevin Spacey was there."

"Next to them is the crew of Supernatural. Isn't that Crystal Liu? She seems to have been nominated as well."

"Why is American Horror Story scheduled so far away? Shouldn't everyone be sitting together?"

"I think the variety show has a high chance of winning an award, and 'The Voice' will definitely win an award, but I didn't see Michael, which was a bit disappointing."

"Celine Dion wasn't there either, luckily Janet Jackson and Jay-Z were there, at least there was something to watch. I wonder if they will perform."

"Have you noticed the big golden retriever? His show 'The Apprentice' has a high viewership rating, and he even said he could win an award, hahahaha."

"Hahaha, the big golden retriever is always outspoken, but I quite like reading his gossip about people, it's really hilarious."

Listening to the chattering of several people, Eric couldn't help but think to himself, now you think that the big golden retriever is like a comedian, but you don't know that he will be the president in the future, where can you go to reason?

On the TV screen, after an opening performance, several hosts came on stage, still using the same multi-host mode as last year.

They joked about interesting things and gossip that happened in the past year and told some harmless jokes, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams came up from backstage as award presenters. Their relationship has been made public and their popularity among young people has soared.

"Thank you to the Academy for allowing us to present the awards. All the nominees are our seniors, including the nominee for Best Actress in a Miniseries."

"Meryl Streep in Angels in America, Helen Mirren in Prime Suspect, Judy Davis in The Reagan, Glenn Close in The Lion in Winter and Emma Thompson in Angels in America."

That’s right, one drama has two nominations, which is not common, but the work is really excellent.

"Angels in America" ​​is HBO's trump card that has been produced with great investment this year, bringing together a number of movie stars including Al Pacino and Meryl Streep.

The script is solid, the plot is interesting, and it received a large number of nominations.

Fortunately, it is a mini-series and is not on the same track as Lionheart Network's drama, otherwise there would be trouble tonight.

There is no doubt that this award went to Aunt May, which was consistent with what the media predicted. Everyone was very convinced that she won the award.

Then the Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series was presented, which was won by Cynthia Nixon from Sex and the City.

"Sex and the City" has won numerous awards over the years and can be said to be the dominant show in the comedy Emmy Awards.

But it's over, and there won't be another season next year. The four main actors have also said that it's time to say goodbye to the audience. HBO's ace program has lost one.

John Turturro won the Best Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for his performance in "Monk," while Laura Linney won the Best Guest Actress in a Comedy Series for her performance in "Fragrant Works."

Sharon Stone then took the stage to present the Best Costume Design Award.

Theron leaned on Eric's shoulder to make herself more comfortable: "Finally, it's our show."

“Costume design has always been the most important part of film and television works. It makes the characters more three-dimensional and more convincing. It often requires a lot of research, and every participant deserves respect.”

"Nominees for Best Costume Design include Angels in America, The Lion in Winter, Miracles, House of Cards and Blackwater."

Sharon Stone opens the envelope: "The winner of the Emmy Award for Best Costume Design is Mike Wehden-Lyle from House of Cards."

"YES!" Elizabeth waved her fist excitedly, even more excited than the people at the scene.

The camera turned to each nominee, and everyone smiled and gave their blessings, and they did not look uncomfortable.

In fact, the costumes in "House of Cards" seem simple, and do not belong to the ancient, fantasy, or other genres that require sophisticated imagination.

But its characteristic is that it is absolutely real. The actors wear what the politicians in real life wear, and it is a completely one-to-one restoration.

The reason why the production cost of "House of Cards" is so high is that, in addition to the actors, the money spent is on costumes and props. Simply put, it was spent with money.

"The West Wing," also a political drama, is not so particular in this regard.

Mike Weidenlaer walked onto the stage and happily accepted the trophy: “I am very grateful to the Academy for giving me the award. This is the highest honor I have received in my career.”

"I have to thank MGM and director Eric Cooper for investing so much money in a drama. He is really courageous."

"I would also like to thank my friends on the set and my family. Thank you all for your support. Thank you!"

As Weidenlaer gave his speech, the camera turned to the crew and his wife, but Eric was the only one missing.

He won the Best Screenplay award last year, setting a new record, but he did not attend this year, which is somewhat regrettable.

But it doesn’t matter, because regret is coming again soon.

"Nominees for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series include Derema Tai (The Sopranos), Stockart Channing (The West Wing), Robin Weigert (Deadwood), Tyne Daly (The Outsiders), and Crystal Liu (Supernatural)."

“And the winner is”
