Chapter 170 Grab Roles
Justin was very satisfied with Arya’s confidence.
His prediction was very accurate. When his car stopped at the entrance of the production team, he ran into Maria and Clara. They smiled and walked out, followed by an assistant director.
It seemed that they had a very harmonious conversation.
Justin asked Arya to stay in the car first. Then he walked over and asked, “Is it settled?”
“Of course, our Clara is young and beautiful. She is the most powerful one among the new generation stars. This role belongs to her. We are just here to familiarize ourselves with the filming environment. We will be joining the production team soon.”
Maria smiled complacently and looked at Justin’s car. She noticed there was someone in the car.
“Don’t tell me you are here also to bring an artist to the audition. You don’t have any artist that you can take care of…”
She had already investigated it thoroughly. Justin’s return this time had already ended the contract with the overseas company. All the artists in his hand had also stayed in the original company. It could be said that… he was now an empty commander. Who could he use to fight her?
“Looks like you have been doing well in these few years.”
Maria looked away and her expression was very unnatural.
“You stepped on my fame and used the methods I taught you to deal with me. You are indeed very suitable for this line of work.”
“I don’t understand what you are saying! Clara still has many works. Let’s go.”
Maria was just about to life her feet and walk out, when she was stopped by Justin. “Just wait and see! I will let you have the taste of failure.”
Especially someone like Maria who was scheming and playing tricks, once she failed it would be bottomless abyss.
Seeing them leave in panic, Justin’s eyes darkened. He opened the car door. “Let’s go. Maria has seen the director. We might be in danger.”
In this industry, speed and rules had to be taken care of.
If the director was very satisfied with Clara before they left, it would be very difficult for Arya to get this role.
“Do you know that Maria wants to sign Naomi?” Justin suddenly asked.
Arya frowned. “I heard. But Director Carter seemed to have rejected it.” After all, the Aorai had already signed her, so how could they sign Naomi?
“But I got the news that Maria did not give up and continued to meet Naomi privately. I guess she will soon establish her own family. At that time, Naomi will make use of your reputation.”
“So we cannot fail this battle.”
Arya’s bright eyes were filled with coldness. She knew what to do.
As soon as they expressed their purpose of coming, they were stopped by the director’s assistant.
“This role has already been decided. You guys should go back.” His words were considered as polite.
Justin asked. “We are all here. Can we meet Director Clerk?”
“Director Clerk is very busy.” The assistant was getting impatient. He picked up the phone, ignored them and left.
Arya looked at him indifferently.
“After a few years, I did not expect this circle to still be like this!” Justin scratched his head and dialed a number. “Jaycee, it’s me. I want to ask where Director Clerk is now.”
After talking to him for a while, Justin gave Arya a look and led her inside.
Ten minutes later, they saw Director Clerk in a lounge.
After Director Clerk saw Maria, he decided to use Maria. So he hid here. He did not want to be found by other managers. He did not expect Justin to find him!
He coughed, looked at Justin and then looked at Arya.
“I know why you come. To be honest, Arya is stronger than Clara, but the age setting of this character is more suitable for Clara. I also agreed to Maria. You guys all are managers of the Aorai. This… You guys can go back and negotiate.”
Director Clerk’s words were unclear. He did not say it was okay, nor did he say it was not okay.
He did not want to offend anyone.
“Director Clerk, Arya will make this movie even more beautiful. You should know her strength. Instead of using a newcomer like Clara, Arya can attract more audiences!”
Director Clerk looked hesitant.
“Actually, Arya has already signed a contract with Aorai. In the future, her scenes and exposure will not be lower than Clara’s. So, you should consider it again!”
Director Clerk thought about it but still hesitated and refused, “I have already signed a contract with Maria. If you guys had come earlier, I would not have signed it. There is no other way, we can only cooperate in the future.”
Justin tried to persuade Director Clerk again, but the later still shook his head.
“Seeing that we used to work together often in the past, Director Clerk give us a chance.”
“Arya really wants to play your part.”
Justin did everything he could do. Arya could tell that he really wanted to help her.
“Alright then. I promise you. I will think about it again. After all, Clara also has an advantage.” Director Clerk let of a breath. In fact, it was all because Justin.
“Great! Director Clerk, I will have to trouble to keep the matter of Arya signing a contract with the Aorai a secret. We are preparing a grand signing ceremony for her. At that time, her value will definitely soar…”
He was hinting to Director Clark that he should not miss this opportunity.
When they left, Director Clark dialed Maria’s number, “Justin came to find me just now. What’s the matter with Aorai?”
“Him?”
“He wants that role too.” Director Clerk did not mention Arya’s name. After all, this was Aorai’s own family matter.
“You are not going to agree with him, are you? Director Clerk, we have known each other for so many years. You promised me first!” Maria started to play relationship card.
Director Clerk could only say. “I will use Clara. Don’t worry.”
Maria thought proudly. So what if Justin came back? He could not return to his peak state.
But Maria missed out a thing.
Behind Arya, there was the most powerful man in the entertainment empire helping her.
When the Dahua General Secretariat received the news, it immediately reported it to Allen. After receiving the order, Martin brought two people from the Public Relation Department and rushed to the Director Clerk.
“Director, Dahua’s President’s secretary, Martin Knight is here!”
“What? Immediately let him in!”
Director Clerk immediately went out to welcome Martin. He was very warm to Martin. “Secretary Knight, why are you here?”
The subsidiary of Dahua was one of the investors of the production team. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Martin was used to their attitude. He knew it was urgent, so he immediately opened his mouth. “Is there another guest character in the production team waiting to be decided? Do you have a suitable candidate?”
Director Clerk immediately understood what Martin meant.
“There is indeed a candidate. We will temporarily appoint a new member of Aorai, Clara. However, if Director Jones wants to let the Dahua’s artist participate in the movie, our production will welcome him
very much.”
The Dahua’s artists were all very skilled. If they joined, he would not be afraid that the Aorai would cause trouble for him.
