Italian Restaurant‘s Boss Jeff found that Eric seems to have changed a person these days, and no longer stays in a daze, and the whole person becomes energetic. When entertaining guests, they are no longer as jerky as they used to be. Occasionally, there are a few harmless jokes with guests, and even once Jeff found that Eric actually used a somewhat hippy but not annoying tone, followed by a The single lady around 30 flirted and got a triple tip and an unobtrusive wink at checkout.
“Eric, did you encounter any good things, I found that you have recently been … abnormal?” After a break, Jeff finally couldn’t help but ask, he was still very concerned about the child left by his old friend Concerned.
“Is it obvious?” Eric froze and asked.
Jeff smiled and said: “Of course, it is written on your face.”
“Perhaps because I found the goal of struggle, you know, once a person has an ideal, the whole person will become very excited.”
“Oh, what ideals can you tell me?”
“Of course,” Eric replied: “I decided, I will make an Director in the future. Nà, I was recently writing my first script, and it will be finished in two days.”
“Guide … Director?” Jeff was a little surprised, and subconsciously wanted to persuade Eric not to be so high, but then remembered that the child had just got rid of the sorrow of his father ’s death, found a struggle goal, or swallowed his words .
The skin of Eric is filled with the soul of a middle-aged man. Jeff just moved his face slightly. Eric just knows wanted to say something, but smiled but did n’t care. After all, here is Hollywood, and there are tens of thousands of people who come here from all over the world to pursue the movie dream, but few have succeeded. It is normal for Jeff to have this idea.
“That … when you write script, you can show it to me. You know, I used to want to make a Actor back then, do n’t look at me like this,” Jeff patted his huge beer belly And then said: “I was very handsome back then. You know, I also participated in the audition of a small character in” The Godfather “, and in a blink of an eye, it has been so many years.”
Eric is a bit dumb, and I can’t think of Jeff still having such a past, but it was quickly relieved, but here is Hollywood, the world’s largest movie factory, nothing is impossible, Stallone has also shot “The Party at Kitty and Stud’s“.
“No problem, you can help me with some comments.” Eric replied, just let Jeff help yourself to see if there are any loopholes in that script.
Although Eric has tried to modify some of the script that appeared only after 1988, there is no guarantee that there will be no omissions. As an outsider, Jeff can easily find some outdated things in script.
The two chatted and laughed a few more times. Several guests walked into the restaurant, and Eric quickly stepped forward to greet the guests.
The day ’s work passed quickly, Eric returned home, hurriedly ate dinner, and began to be busy with the novels of “Jurassic Park” and script.
The “Jurassic Park” has basically been written, and it is now the final proofreading. Eric intends to take the time to make a few copies tomorrow and submit to several Publishing Houses. But script just wrote an outline and some notes that need to be modified. To complete these, for Eric with a complete image in mind, it only takes two nights to write script.
The next morning, Eric left home at more than seven in the morning and planned to copy and mail “Jurassic Park“. He had prepared some North America famous Publishing House submission addresses in advance. Of course, even these large Publishing House refused He will not be disappointed with the Eric manuscript. You know, North America has as many as tens of thousands of large and small Publishing House, and there is always one willing to publish this novel. Although “Jurassic Park” once reached the top of the 《The New York Times》 bestseller list, Eric does not care about the royalty of “Jurassic Park“, but just wants to hold the film and television copyright in the hands after the novel is published.
“Hello, what can I do for you?” Just walked into a printing shop, and a slightly thin black female clerk greeted warmly.
Eric took out the manuscript in the bag and said, “I want to make several copies of this manuscript.”
The black girl looked at the thick manuscript, her eyes lightened slightly, and the smile on her face was even brighter: “Sir, can I have a look?”
“No problem,” Eric passed on the manuscript.
The black girl did n’t pay attention to the content of the manuscript, but counted the next page skillfully: “It ’s probably more than three hundred pages, it ’s three hundred pages for you. For every copy 30 USD, sir, how many copies do you want? Copies? “
30 USD! Eric twitched slightly at the corner of his mouth, and sighed that it was expensive. He now has only a few hundred USD cash left, which is still in the case of a monthly salary advance.
After bargaining, the two agreed to make four copies of the price of one hundred USD. After paying the money, the black girl politely brewed a cup of coffee for Eric, and then took the book to start copying.
Eric bored a coffee cup and watched a black girl operate a copier. It was consider as finished secretly, and it took about half an hour to complete, without delaying work in the restaurant. Although the restaurant started to be really busy after ten o’clock, even if it was late, Jeff‘s character will not deduct his salary, but the friendship returns to the friendship, the work is work, Eric knows that it wants to maintain the relationship with Jeff and guard itself The duty is necessary.
After about ten minutes, the door of the printing shop dimmed slightly. Eric looked up and saw a brown-haired white man walking into the shop carrying a leather bag.
The man is about forty years old, less than one and seven meters tall, but he looks very strong, with a brown stubble in his chin, a tall nose bridge, wearing a pair of gold glasses, a forehead slightly bald, the whole person exudes a gentle book gas quality.
“Welcome, sir, could you wait a moment?”
The brown hair man nodded his head, politely greeted Eric, and sat down next to Eric. The black girl temporarily stopped her work and quickly poured a cup of coffee to the brown hair man: “Sir, it will be more than ten minutes, please drink a cup of coffee first.”
The brown hair man took the coffee and thanked him. He followed the black girl ’s figure and saw the thick stack of manuscripts. His expression moved slightly. There were only three people in the shop. The man could n’t help but look at Eric.
“Ask me to ask, is that your manuscript?”
Eric nodded and said: “Yes, a novel, I just finished writing, intend to copy several submissions.”
“You look like a high school student, but it’s really amazing, I can’t do this when you are as old as you.”
“Thank you, this is actually my first part novel, and I do n’t have much confidence.”
“No, believe yourself. Can I read your novel?” brown hair man said, took out a business card and handed it to Eric: “Just, I have a small Publishing House.” >
Eric took a look at the business card, Michael · Claus, Night Elf Publishing House Manager. Eric‘s eyebrows jumped, but fortunately not Michael · Crichton. Eric could n’t help vomiting Westerners ’lack of creativity in naming names. In memory, there are two classes in Eric high school called Jack and two called Jessica, and the scope is expanded to the whole school. Too. Even the son was born too lazy to pick up a new name, directly called Xiao Robert · Downey or something, the same is true!
Anyway, if I look at it and will not get pregnant, Eric takes the manuscript that has been copied and hands it to Michael · Claus. The other party took the manuscript, glanced at the title, and said casually: “” Jurassic Park “, a very interesting name.”
Eric smiled slightly and did not answer. Michael · Claus doesn’t say anything anymore, it looks like it’s turned over. With the deepening of reading, the casual expression of Michael gradually became more serious. Although he just praised Eric on his lips, he did not think that he could write any wonderful novel at the age of Eric. In his previous career experience, almost all of the authors of best-selling books are people full of life experience and rich knowledge accumulation.
After reading the manuscript quickly and carefully, Michael carefully sorted out some scattered manuscripts and looked up to Eric. His eyes were full of surprise, excitement, luck, and a few aspirations.
“Young man, can I know your name?”
“Eric Williams,” Eric is not hypocritical, he answered directly. With his rich experience of previous life, how can he not see what is contained in the expression of Michael at this time. Although there is no plan to hand over “Jurassic Park” to the small Publishing House, it does not prevent him from getting acquainted with Michael · Claus. In case “Jurassic Park” is really rejected by those well-known Publishing House, this is also an option.
