Back in his room, Eric took a bath and was planning to go to sleep, when the phone suddenly rang. Calling him so late, it could only be Annie.


“Hey, Eric, were you sleeping ?” The lass asked with a tinge of excitement.


Eric sat on the bed drying his wet hair with a towel, he said: “No, I just showered, Annie did something good happen ?”


“Guess ?”

Eric quipped: “Oh, I know, you must be pregnant, don’t worry, I’ll take responsibility.”



Eric smiled: “Tell me ?”


“Well, I came out from the cinema earlier, and there was a five-year-old boy shouting that he wanted to see Kevin again, the parents refused, saying that they had just went to see him, and the result was that the kid lied on the ground and started to cry. Some people mistakenly thought that his parents were child-traffickers, the poor parents were beaten up, and several police cars came, it was really funny, haha.”


Aniston was just viewing it as a funny anecdote, but Eric could see the bigger picture. They chatted for a while before hanging up, and Eric lied on his bed, slightly excited.






When the parents of six children realized they couldn’t find him, the whole family had already flown to Hawaii. The boy’s parents had to give up on their vacation to go back to San Francisco, only to find out that the boy had made a mess of the house as he was prepared to battle the ‘robbers’ but was met with his anxious parents instead.





Columbia Pictures’ luck was indeed really good, but when he received the first week’s data from the box office, president Blount Cohen’s mood hit rock bottom, and his cup would also often fall out from his hands.


’s copyrights rather than signing that dog shit gambling agreement, then Columbia’s profits this year would have been in the hundreds of millions.


Blount Cohen had wanted to tear the agreement apart many times, however, the whole nation now knew about the bet, if he hastily tore up the contract, not only would Columbia have a difficult lawsuit on its hands, they would also become the laughing stock of the country. As the president, he himself would definitely become the scapegoat.


“No, we must find a way to recoup our losses, we must ……” While Blount Cohen kept muttering, an assistant knocked on his door and said: “Mr. Cohen, everyone is in attendance, the meeting can start.”

Blount Cohen rubbed his temples, rose and left for the conference room.




He sweated as he looked at Blount Cohen, although the final decision to accept the agreement was his boss’, but he had been the first to voice his consent at the original meeting. According to Blount Cohen’s headstrong character, nine times out of ten he would vent his anger on Lester.


“Mr. Cohen, according to the data department’s analysis, and in accordance to the gambling agreement, we can only get about 50 million $ out of the estimated 225 million $ of the North American box office.”


Blount Cohen took the analysis file, and looking at the red curve going down that represented Columbia’s profits, as well as the green one who was going all the way up representing Eric’s, his temples started to jump.


Bang –


Another one of Blount Cohen’s cup fell on the mahogany floor with a dull thud, everyone else in the room was slightly startled, they subconsciously looked down and became silent.


Under normal circumstances, making 50 million $ at the box office was enough to let those old foxes laugh out loud even in their dreams, after all, even for the six giants, the best yearly box office profit was about 200 million $.


However, when compared to the over 100 million $ that Eric might receive, Blount Cohen couldn’t bring himself to be excited in the slightest.
