Chapter 135 Taking Away Her Opportunities Time and Time Again
Wendy had just returned to the country for career development, and despite not having any other work, she was able to secure the job of endorsing their game.
Wendy's financial backer, Mr. Frane, had long been a topic of discussion in the company. And today, the news that Jackson accompanied Wendy for the shoot had spread instantly.
Michael chuckled and said to Rose, "Ms. Sivan is truly talented. I didn't know she could dance as well. Let me consult with Mr. Frane."
Michael didn't dare to offend Wendy, but the new game was a major project.
The previous hit game from Digital Dreams Gaming used choreography from Light, which had a great effect. This time, Digital Dreams Gaming sincerely invited Master Light to participate.
Initially, he felt pity that Light rejected his invitation. However, to his surprise, she came. If Digital Dreams Gaming replaced her, not only was this inappropriate, but Michael also didn't believe in Wendy's abilities.
"Mr. Lee, isn't this unnecessary? Wendy is the future lady boss of Star Group. Would Mr. Frane doubt her abilities?"
Rose tried to dissuade Michael, but Michael insisted on consulting Jackson.
At that moment, Jackson had just come out of the meeting room after hearing the annual plan. Michael approached him with the matter, and Jackson's expression turned slightly serious.
"The smooth and attractive movements of game characters are crucial for the beauty of the game screen. Do I need to remind you of the importance of the original choreography? Can the dancers be easily replaced?" Jackson reprimanded Michael, who felt relieved internally.
Fortunately, Jackson was not swayed by beauty.
He quickly said, "Coincidentally, the dancer is currently in the motion capture room. Would you like to go and see her?"
Jackson nodded, and Michael hurriedly led the way.
Outside the motion capture room, Michael gently pushed the door open.
At a glance, Jackson saw a woman dancing in front of a black curtain, connected to equipment.
She performed dance moves, and the technical staff captured her movements and details to be synthesized, allowing the game character to mimic the same actions.
Lillian was focused, and the staff were busy with their tasks, unaware of the commotion outside.
Michael was about to speak up when Jackson raised his hand and closed the door directly.
Michael thought Jackson was satisfied and didn't want to disturb the progress inside, but to his surprise, Jackson spoke in a stern tone.
"Let Wendy try the original dance. If she is capable, sign her on."
Michael was stunned. How could Jackson suddenly change his mind?
However, Jackson had already stepped out, his face cold and his steps quick.
Lillian wanted to take his money and then divorce him!
Lillian was recording her dance when Michael suddenly walked in with others.
"Pause for a moment," Michael said.
Lillian stopped and looked over, only to see Wendy smiling and greeting everyone.
"I'm Wendy, and I'm here today to audition for the role of the original dancer. Please take care of me," Wendy said cheerfully.
Rose brought coffee and milk tea with her assistant, creating a lively atmosphere.
Shirley angrily approached Wendy and said, "This job belongs to Lillian. Stay out of it! With your uncoordinated limbs, are you trying to create a group of disabled game characters?"
Lillian had also removed the equipment connected to her body and walked over, looking at Michael.
"Michael, the collaboration was initiated by Digital Dreams Gaming. Were you dissatisfied with my dance just now?"
Michael looked embarrassed, and Wendy interjected with a smile.
"Lillian, stop making things difficult for others. Let me tell you the truth. This game company is under Star Group. Jackson has spoken and believes I am more suitable. He wants me to replace you, and Michael has no choice."
She was not afraid to tell Lillian, as it not only instigated a conflict between Lillian and Jackson but also put Michael in her debt.
Lillian clenched her fists tightly. When she was dancing just now, she vaguely seemed to have seen a man's figure flash by outside the door.
She thought she had imagined it, but it turned out to be real.
He took away her opportunities and creations time and time again, all for Wendy.
