Chapter 330: Not Going to Reason Anymore#

My payment, Eric, is 20 dollars, Ivanka said confidently, and Lolitas enthusiastic expression made everyone laugh.

Eric also laughed and reached into his pocket for his wallet, curiously asking, Eni, what do you need the money for?

I dont like my dad anymore, Ive decided not to spend his money anymore and I want to be independent, Ivanka said firmly.

Donald Trump, who had been standing next to them the whole time, awkwardly covered his forehead but still had a smile on his face.

Eric looked at Donald Trump and covered the wallet he had just taken out, asking again, But your dad pays for your tuition and living expenses, right?

I checked, its my dads obligation as a father, but other than that, I dont want to spend his money anymore. Look, I bought this bunny doll with the money I earned from cleaning my room, Ivanka said with a serious expression. Her cute and serious expression made her big s.h.i.+ny eyes fixedly stare at Erics wallet, as if she was afraid he would back out of the deal.

Eric looked in his wallet and pulled out a $100 bill, handing it over. Take it, the extra is your reward for your excellent performance just now.

Dont treat me like a child, Dad did that to me too. I dont want it. 20 dollars is 20 dollars, Ivanka insisted.

The crowd watching the scene finally burst into laughter.

Okay, okay, Eric chuckled and shook his head, flipping open his wallet to look for change, but found that he only had a stack of hundred-dollar bills. Eni, I dont have any change, what should I do?

Although the people around them probably had a $20 bill, Eric still showed his wallet to Ivanka, wanting to tease the little girl again.

Ivanka leaned over and looked at Erics wallet seriously. Suddenly, she froze. As Donald Trumps daughter, she had always lived a worry-free life. Whenever she wanted something, someone would buy it for her, so she rarely dealt with money matters.

However, after her parents sudden divorce, Ivanka began to think about earning money on her own. Now facing such a complicated issue that she had never experienced before, she didnt know how to handle it. Therefore, the little girl instinctively looked towards her father.

Inny, if you want me to help, youll have to pay a consultation fee of $20, Donald Trump said in an official tone with a serious face.

Ivanka glared at her father angrily and then looked at Eric. Twenty dollars, Ivanka repeated and then stared at Eric without blinking. It was obvious that the young girl was not willing to compromise.

Eric saw the a.s.sistant director gesturing to him that the next scene was ready, so he didnt have time to joke with Ivanka any further. He handed her a $100 bill and said, Here, take this. The remaining $80 can be considered as an advance payment for your appearance fee. You can guest star in my movie four times in the future.

Ivanka was about to return the money to Eric, but when she heard what he said, she tilted her head and thought for a moment. She realized that this was actually a good idea, and most importantly, Eric didnt charge her a consultation fee like her despicable father did. She nodded in agreement and said, No problem, but I can only guest star four times.

Of course, Eric nodded and looked at Ivankas cute appearance. He inexplicably thought of an old man who always appeared mysteriously in superhero movies. It would be interesting if there was a little girl who always appeared with a stuffed toy in his movie, wouldnt it?

After the filming resumed, Donald Trump took his daughter and left tactfully. The outdoor scenes were almost done, and Eric started shooting the most important indoor scenes.

The filming location for Sam and Mollys home was an apartment building in the SoHo district of Manhattan, New York. SoHo was originally an old industrial district in New York. Due to the decline of New Yorks manufacturing industry, many factories and apartments were left vacant for a period of time. Because of the cheap rent, many artists and creators of various types who came to New York to pursue their dreams gathered here, renting cheap factories as their studios. With decades of development, the SoHo district gradually became synonymous with contemporary art, and the concept of SoHo spread throughout the world with the development of the times.

In Ghost, Molly is an artist. Therefore, it is very fitting for the two to live here as it corresponds with their roles in the story.

Because of watching the news about a plane crash on TV, Sams somewhat pessimistic words caused Molly to have insomnia. Therefore, the girl got up alone and started working on ceramics, and Sam, who woke up in a daze, discovered that his lover had left and came to Mollys studio.

Soon, it also created the most cla.s.sic scene in Ghost movie.

I want this scene to have a more theatrical effect when filming. The most important thing is the lighting. This scene is probably divided into two parts. The first part is the pottery scene. Here, as you can see, although there is a light, I dont need it to be used in the shot. What I need is a top light effect. As for the second part, I need high-contrast lighting, Eric said as he walked around the room with the lighting crew, and the lighting crew nodded repeatedly to show that they understood.

After explaining everything, Eric walked over to Nicolas Cage and Bridget Fonda, who were preparing for the scene. Cage was chatting casually with Fonda, and it was apparent that the relations.h.i.+p between the two was somewhat intimate. In fact, this was precisely the effect Eric needed. As a touching love movie, if the male and female protagonists dont have chemistry, unless both actors acting skills reach a certain level, it will be a disaster for the film.

Therefore, although Bridget Fonda was very beautiful, Eric did not make a move as he used to. He needed the female lead to maintain the chemistry with the male lead.

When it came to movies and women, Eric has always been able to distinguish the main and the secondary. In Erics mind, the film has always been the most important thing. This is the foundation of his standing in Hollywood. As long as he can achieve enough success in the film industry, pursuing women will be an easy task.

Seeing Eric coming over, the two who were chatting couldnt help but want to stand up.

Its okay, sit down, Eric waved his hand, pulled a chair and sat opposite the two, and casually asked, What were you just talking about?

The two glanced at each other, and Bridget spoke up, Cage asked if I wanted to go see a famous British theater group performing Hamlet on Broadway tomorrow night.
