Chapter 289: Can\'t bite back

Michael Eisner was the main instigator of the recent turmoil according to Murdoch. Eric had no intention of compromising and decided that they should find a way to get the song "Rampant Melody" from Justice Brothers tomorrow. As for the rest, he had plenty of ideas for good movies in his mind.

It was a pity that Eric had planned to spend a year to create a special effects company to get familiar with movie special effects and prepare for the production of Jurassic Park.

Without a doubt, "Love Without End" was a perfect experimental object. The wall-passing and grim reaper special effects in the movie could give him some practice.

Without this movie, Eric\'s original plans would be disrupted.

"Alright, Eric, it\'s getting late now, so let\'s wrap up this meal," Mordoc suddenly said.

Eric didn\'t have much enthusiasm to chat further, so he called the waiter and handed over his credit card to settle the bill.

Mordoc stood up directly: "Eric, Liz has been staying in Beverly Hills recently, and I\'m getting a bit old, so I want to go home directly. Could you help me send her back?"

"Dad, I can go back by myself," Elizabeth said.

"You\'re a girl, what if you run into bad people? I\'m sure Eric won\'t mind sending you back, right, Eric?" Mordoc said with a smile, looking at Eric.

Eric looked at Elizabeth and said, "If Liz is willing, I\'m of course fine with it."

"That\'s it," said Murdoch, signaling to his assistants and bodyguards who had been waiting nearby, and he turned and left.

Since it was almost 10 o\'clock, there weren\'t many people left in the restaurant. Eric and Elizabeth were looking at each other.

"I don\'t need you to take me back, I\'ll go by myself," Elizabeth said stubbornly.

"Oh." Eric nodded and made a gesture of invitation.

Elizabeth, who had just stood up, glared at Eric unhappily. She reluctantly sat back down and said, "I\'ve never seen a guy without manners like you."

Eric laughed and settled the bill before standing up and saying to the ladies, "Okay, let\'s go."

Elizabeth reluctantly stood up and followed Eric into his car.

"Do you still stay with Jennifer?" Eric asked as he started the car.

"Yes, two of us live together to keep it lively. Besides, Jennifer is also my film company\'s partner, so it\'s easier to talk about business when we live together.", Elizabeth replied.

"By the way, I don\'t know what your film company is called?", Eric drove the car onto the highway and asked casually.

"TG Film Company.", Elizabeth said.

"What does TG stand for?"

Elizabeth opened her mouth to reply, but then realized if she explained, Eric would certainly ask who the three girls were, and Nicole would be exposed. Nicole had already insisted more than once that she and Julia keep things from Eric, and the girl felt she was more morally upright than her unscrupulous father, and wouldn\'t so easily betray her friends.

"TG is TG. Why ask so much!"

"Oh, okay," Eric graciously didn\'t probe too deeply. Changing the topic, he said: "By the way, about The Silence of the Lambs, did you not explain it to your dad?"

"Explain what?" Elizabeth was curious.

"For example, I\'m quite fond of this script and so on."

The girl blinked a few times: "My dad didn\'t ask".

"Guess when The Silence of the Lambs comes out, someone will regret not having dinner," Eric said with a laugh.

"Hmph, now that you mention it, you are really detestable. You secretly bought the rights to Golden Alliance from Fox beforehand. I heard that the sales of the movie videotapes have exceeded one million boxes. My dad called over and scolded Barry Dilers, and Fox had to fire some of their executives."

Eric shrugged: "It\'s business. Besides, you all bought it voluntarily, I didn\'t steal or rob it."

The woman was unhappy and said, "We haven\'t even signed a contract yet. Don\'t think I\'m going to give your small company permission to distribute \'The Silence of the Lambs\'."

Eric stopped the car in front of a red light and casually looked out the window. "Whatever you want, it might not even be a big seller. Who knows, you might be the one crying at the end of it."

"If it really turns out that way, I won\'t be the only one crying," Elizabeth said pointedly. Seeing Eric\'s noncommittal expression, the woman continued, "Firefly should handle the distribution in North America, but I want 35% of the earnings. I\'ll give Fox the rights overseas."

"20%," Eric immediately bargained with a smile.

The woman raised her fist and punched Eric\'s shoulder. "35%, or else I\'ll give it to Fox."

"How about 21%?"

"Get out of here!" the lady was just about to speak again when a silver convertible with its top down came roaring up behind Eric\'s car, and several young people inside were screaming, "Hey, the light\'s green, drive, drive!"

Eric glanced in his rearview mirror and stepped gently on the gas. As the silver convertible passed them, the young people shouted tauntingly towards Eric\'s car window, but Eric seemed to not notice and just continued to drive at his own speed. The convertible soon passed them, and Eric thought they would be gone, but it soon slowed down and began driving side-by-side with them.

"Hey, beautiful lady in the passenger seat, how about coming for a ride with us guys?" a young man with spiked hair called out to Elizabeth in the passenger seat.

Eric glanced out the car window, pressed the button and raised the window glass, Elizabeth followed suit, but her small mouth said mercilessly: "You are really too weak, the lady beside you was harassed and you don\'t even dare to fight back."

Eric glanced at the girl and said: "Will you bite back if you get bitten by a dog?"

"You... are really vulgar." Elizabeth angrily turned her head away and decided not to pay attention to Eric anymore.

Eric did not pay attention to them, and drove on with concentration. Although Eric had rolled up the car window, the few young men in the convertible still refused to leave. They sped up and slowed down, circling around Eric\'s car and making various provocations from time to time.

Eric glanced out the window and saw that it was not far from Elizabeth\'s house, so he decided to ignore them.
