Chapter 245 What Do You Think About Me?

Just when he was about to speak, he was suddenly interrupted by Eric. When the waiter finished serving the dishes, Donald Trump saw Eric looking strange on the opposite side, worried that the young man would say something so that he could not touch it. When the topic of mind came, Donald Trump hurriedly took the lead and said, "Eric, have you been to New York before?"

Eric nodded: "I've been here a few times."

"How does it feel here?" Donald pointed out.

Eric smiled and said the truth: "I don't feel it. The first few times I came here were rushed, and I was doing serious business."

Donald nodded, and then said: "You should walk around more and see more. A bustling world-class metropolis like New York is a paradise for people like us. By the way, have you ever thought about buying in New York? Real estate, you should know, prices have been cheap recently, and maybe in a year or two, New York prices will skyrocket again.”

Eric glanced suspiciously at Donald Trump. The real estate tycoon came to the door himself, wouldn't he be selling his house to himself, it's too ridiculous. Eric raised his wrist and looked at his watch, then said, "Mr. Trump, you should know that I don't have much time, so if there is anything, you can say it directly."

Donald Trump originally wanted to take a few minutes to guide him slowly,

Hearing Eric asking so straightforwardly, this real estate tycoon who has always been very gambling and resolute is also decisive. He put down the tableware in his hand, changed his sitting position, and said to Eric: "Eric, you are right. Interested in the real estate industry?"

Eric felt that he understood a little, but he didn't understand a little, so he could only continue to ask: "What do you mean?"

Donald Trump's tone was full of temptation: "I mean, do you want to invest in real estate? You have to know that now is a great opportunity to buy the bottom of the North American real estate industry. If you miss this time, maybe at least in Twenty years."

Eric doesn't know if the property tycoon did it on purpose or not, though. He really calculated in his mind, from now to the next subprime mortgage crisis in 2008. Isn't it twenty years.

Abandoning this somewhat inexplicable thought, Eric asked calmly: "Why me, Mr. Donald, if it's as you said, now is a great opportunity, then there should be a lot of bottom-hunting people, right?"

Donald Trump replied without hesitation: "Of course there are many people who want to buy the dip, but they don't have the advantage of you."

Eric smiled slightly and asked, "You mean my... funds?"

Donald Trump nodded solemnly: "Eric. I happened to see some news about you in the newspaper, so I couldn't help but take the liberty to visit. But this is also a great opportunity for you. .Your firefly company will generate a lot of profit this year, right? If you invest in real estate, I assure you, in a few years, the money will more than double in value, which is much less risky than investing in movies already."

Eric asked with interest: "Mr. Trump, if I decide to invest in real estate, do you have any good advice?"

Donald Trump was stunned for a moment, not expecting this young man to be so direct. But seeing the playful eyes of the other party clearly, a trace of embarrassment finally flashed across Donald Trump's face.

However, he quickly remembered his purpose this time. Throwing this emotion out of his mind, he said: "My real estate company just needed financing recently, but you should have also heard some recent economic conditions in our country, so it is not too easy to get a loan from the bank. And I happened to read something about you in the paper, Eric, what do you think?"

Eric shook his head: "Mr. Trump, I don't actually have much money in my hands. If you know me a little bit, you will find that almost all of the money I made this year has been spent."

"Isn't there... a few more movies at the end of the year?" Donald Trump said immediately: "Eric. At the end of the year, your company has five movies released, and all of them are very popular with distributors. At least It can also bring in a profit of 100 million dollars, right?"

"Sorry, Mr. Trump, I'm not interested in investing in real estate," Eric shook his head directly. Although Eric's knowledge in his previous life made Eric think that real estate is very profitable without even thinking about it, Eric is not interested in this industry. With a smear in the eyes, it is estimated that the investment of one or two hundred million US dollars will be a waste, and whether the capital can be recovered in the end is a question.

In contrast, Eric would rather invest in movies, after all, he knows all about the blockbuster movies over the years. Even if the money is too much to spend in the end, it must be invested in the industry that he is more familiar with, rather than the real estate that he does not know at all.

After Donald Trump was rejected by Eric, he was not discouraged at all, but he did not persuade him any more. He knew that as long as this young man had some sense, then he would talk badly about this meal, and the other party would not be able to. Promise yourself immediately. The most important thing now is to establish a long-term relationship with Eric first. He believes that with his communication skills, even if the age difference between the two parties is a little big, he can easily become friends with each other.

As a result, Donald Trump's expression became relaxed afterwards, and he said like a small talk: "Eric, I heard a few days ago that your "Home Alone 2" crew was talking to a hotel about wanting to shoot live, you see How about the Grand Hyatt on 42nd Avenue, that's my property, and I can let your crew in for free."

Eric refused: "No need, we have already negotiated with the Plaza Hotel next to Central Park, and the other party has also agreed to us to use it for free."

Donald Trump knew the grade of the Plaza Hotel, and asked in disbelief: "Free?"

Eric nodded, a little proud that he could make a five-star hotel free for the crew to use, and even the staff were willing to guest-star as extras, which was not an easy thing to do before.

And the reason for this is also due to the original "Pretty Girl in the Moon". The Wilshire Hotel in Los Angeles was used as the filming location for "Pretty Girl in the Moon". After the movie became popular, the hotel also became popular and even became As a scenic spot in Beverly Hills, many people who travel to Los Angeles during this period will go to the Wilshire Hotel to see it, and they will stay in if they can.

Although Donald Trump's Hyatt Regency Hotel on 42nd Avenue is of good grade, it has not yet reached the luxury level of the Plaza Hotel. Therefore, after hearing Eric say this, Donald Trump did not persuade him any further. After thinking for a while, Donald Trump then said again: "So, Eric, what do you think of me?"

"what?"

"I mean, do you think I can have a cameo role in your movie?"

Eric raised his eyebrows, remembered a certain passerby in "Home Alone 2", and asked, "Are you sure?"

Donald Trump saw that he had a door, and quickly said: "Of course, I have also made cameo roles in several TV series before. I think the movies must be similar, right?"

The reason why Donald Trump is so eager is not that he valued the opportunity to make a cameo. Even if he had such a hobby in the past, now that the company is in jeopardy, it is impossible for him to have any interest. This is just to keep in touch with Eric and continue to persuade Eric.

Now that it was delivered to the door, Eric nodded as a matter of course, but with a playful smile, he said, "If you want, of course it's fine."

...

After a pleasant lunch, Donald Trump quickly sent Eric back to the set.

"Everyone, everyone is paying attention, it's time to work, Ellen, where's Ellen?" Eric walked into the studio, picked up the loudspeaker and shouted.

The people who were still resting immediately gathered and started to work on their own posts.

"Mr. Williams, are you looking for me?" Allen asked as he got out of nowhere.

Eric nodded: "You don't have to be here in the afternoon, go and help me collect some information on the closure of Donald Trump's company."

"Who is Donald Trump?" Allen asked suspiciously.

Eric was too lazy to explain to him, and pointed to Elizabeth who came over: "You go and ask Liz, and give me the information at night."

"Oh," Allen nodded and walked towards Elizabeth.

Eric immediately began to instruct the crew to prepare for the scenes to be shot in the afternoon.

...

In the hotel where the crew stayed, this time the environment was countless times better than in Seattle.

The sound of the rushing water in the bathroom stopped for a while, and after a while, Eric walked out with a towel wrapped around his waist.

Nicole, who was lying on the big bed in a light blue nightdress and reading a magazine, got up when she heard the movement, and raised a document on the bedside table: "Alan just came here and brought this?"

Eric raised his eyebrows in surprise: "The door you opened?"

The girl nodded innocently: "I called you, but you didn't hear it, so I had to..."

Eric stared at the girl helplessly, and sighed, "Okay."

Ni can see that Eric didn't pursue it anymore, and secretly relieved once again. Very few people know about the relationship between her and Eric, not even Aniston. That little silly girl still thinks Eric selected her through the proper audition route.

However, although Nicole doesn't want outsiders to know about his relationship with Eric, those who should know, such as Jeffrey or Eric's assistant, or some other important people around Eric, still have to let them know. the other party knows. (To be continued)
