Chapter 650 No Match
When Graciana approached, the clean and refreshing aura of her body followed.
The corners of Julian's mouth lifted slightly.
"Don't worry about him. Director, you can continue."
Graciana squeezed out a smile and motioned for Hudson to continue.
Hudson couldn't help looking at Julian a few more times. Seeing that he was in a good mood, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
He had long heard that Julian's temper was sometimes unpredictable. He had finally seen it this time.
Was this person difficult to deal with during the shoot in the future?
The director secretly complained in his heart, but he looked at Graciana seriously. "It's not impossible to divide them into groups to shoot, but the Dewfall International proposed to add more scenes for their actors."
Graciana suddenly looked at the screenwriter, Emanuel, and frowned slightly.
"What do you mean?"
As everyone knew, the duration of the movie was only that long. If Dewfall international wanted to add more scenes, the role of other artists would inevitably be reduced.
In other words, the supporting role wanted to steal the limelight of the leading role.
Then why was the movie called Twin Flowers? It should be called the Supporter movie!
Mr. Jones sighed deeply and took out his mobile phone to show it to Graciana.
"Haya is on hot searches, and it's a positive one. Her management company thinks this is a good opportunity, so they used her to negotiate with our crew to say that they want to add on more scenes."
"What hot search?"
Graciana took the phone and swiped it.
It turned out that the news of Haya sending her neighbor to the hospital had been posted online, attracting a lot of attention. Then, many neighbors praised Haya.
A lot of people searched for the news and found that Haya was quite good-looking.
In addition, she was very close to the people, and her previous experience was very inspirational. After a while, everyone felt that she was really a down to earth celebrity, and many people liked her.
Haya's Weibo fans soared to two million, turning her famous.
Before Haya could express her opinion, her management company jumped out and called Mr. Jones to make a request.
If they didn't add more scenes, the company would have to terminate the contract.
Haya's acting skills were good, and her personal image was also good. If she were to act in someone else's play, she could earn a lot of money for the company.
However, everyone in the crew knew that the movie was for the celebrities of Star-Moon Media. They would definitely not give Haya too many highlight shots. In addition, Haya was still a little transparent when she signed the contract, so her pay was not high.
They did not have to pay much after terminating the contract. Such a loss could be made up by taking on other plays.
Dewfall International's attitude was quite tough.
Graciana was so angry that she laughed.
"They've just entered the hot search and they've begun to float. Dewfall must be crazy for money."
Not to mention the fact that Haya didn't have a famous work right now, she was just a rookie who had just gained some fame. Her management company was going to drag her down. If news of her additional scene got out, all of her potential connections would be ruined.
Mr. Jones tapped his finger on the table. "If we still have enough time, it's fine if she wants to terminate the contract."
But now the filming was about to start. How could they find the suitable second female lead if the contract was terminated at this time?
It wouldn't be a good thing if news of this got out and Eliza was tied up with some bad label.
The most important thing was that Mr. Jones was actually quite satisfied with Haya. She was a very reliable person and did not have the impetuousness of a new actress. After understanding the actions of the management company, she especially called to apologize and said that she could not accept the portion of her salary. She would give it all to the management company and only asked Mr. Jones to give her a chance to act.
Hudson had always been soft-hearted. It wasn't easy for Haya as well, so he told Emanuel about it. Emanuel thought about it and said that she could film more shots for Haya without reducing the scenes of the leading role.
Only then did Hudson let out a sigh of relief. It happened that Graciana had called him. He wanted to talk about this story with her in person.
Graciana frowned and felt that things were not simple.
Before she could refuse, Julian said directly, "That won't work."
"The script has been set for a long time. In order to accommodate her, we changed the script. If other companies learned to negotiate with the crew after the artists became popular, Mr. Jones, what prestige do you have in the crew?"
After hearing this, Mr. Jones felt a stab in his heart.
He couldn't help murmuring, "Do I still have prestige in front of you?"
Besides, Eliza and Roseane, one was the wife of an investor, and the other was the nephew's wife of the investor. They were existences that he couldn't afford to offend.
Not to mention the fact that Eliza and Roseane were both in the prime of their lives, and that troublesome Sachin, as well as Mr. Benton in front of them.
In other people's crew, there were at most one or two big shots, but he had four big shots!
Hudson had given up hope a long time ago. All he needed to do in the crew was to not lose his dignity.
Hearing Mr. Jones's complaint, Julian didn't comment. He just reminded him, "This cannot be used as a precedent."
"But..."
Julian said, "Give me Haya's manager's phone number. I'll tell him personally."
"This..."
Hudson and Emanuel looked at each other, and the latter said, "Give it to him."
If he could avoid changing the script, Emanuel naturally did not want his script to be changed.
Hudson had no choice but to do as he was told.
After Julian got the number, he nodded to them and said, "I'll make a phone call first."
The butler pushed Julian to make a phone call, while the rest of them sat in the private room and looked at each other.
Graciana thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll tell Eliza."
She sent a message to Eliza, and the other side quickly replied.
[They can add scenes, but I will have to change the director.]
[Tell Hudson this.]
[I'm Beau.]
Three messages popped up in a row. Graciana was shocked after reading them, but then she felt comfortable.
She raised her eyebrows and handed the phone to Hudson.
Hudson didn't know what was going on. He took it and looked at it. There was no trace of blood on his face immediately.
"This..."
Graciana gave Hudson a meaningful look. "Do you want to offend Dewfall or Mr. Valentine? Mr. Jones, think about it carefully."
Hudson, "..."
Julian also came in and looked at Hudson with a poker face. "It's settled."
Hudson hurriedly looked at Julian. "What did you say?"
"It's nothing. I just said that if they dared to add scenes, I would make a public fuss. They don't want to see Haya's career ruined, so they chose to give in."
Hudson, "..."
For a moment, he was in a complicated mood.
After all, Julian had been in the circle for many years and had unimaginable connections and influence.
Dewfall International was obviously not a real fool. They were not stupid to offend the best actor and the people behind him.
Mr. Jones, who had been looked down upon, felt uncomfortable.
If they couldn't afford to offend Julian, they could make things difficult for him, the director, right?
Who were they looking down on?
Hudson was very depressed. He secretly decided that when the movie started filming, he would definitely establish his prestige!
