At this moment, Zack looked at Melissa with a stern expression in his eyes. He seemed to be thinking about something.
Seeing that Zack was stalling, Melissa became completely angry. She immediately threatened, "since you are so hesitant, I'll negotiate with other actresses. I believe that there are still a lot of people who are interested in the advertising besides you and Anna. At that time, I'll help other agent's artist, please don't say that I won't help you!"
When it came to competition, Zack became anxious. He immediately raised his hand and said, "Oh, wait! Did I say no? I just don't get it. Why did you willing to give up this advertisement? You said it is a great opportunity. Then why didn't you do it but used it to exchange for several supporting roles?"
"Nothing. I just don't want to rely on a man. I have my own ability. Why should I flatter a popular star? I don't want to be looked down upon in the future," Melissa replied coldly
Hearing this, Zack laughed at her in disdain. He looked at her with mockery and said, "sometimes I really don't know what to say to you. Why are you so spineless? How could a person keep his integrity as his meal? In this circle, many female stars serve the director and drink with them, and they even sleep with the investors in order to make money. However, you just want to have integrity. Sometimes, your integrity can't be eaten as a meal! "
Melissa sneered too, "You're right. Moral integrity doesn't mean living on air. But I think people should have the basic dignity and shouldn't lost it for fame and fortune. Will you agree to this deal or not? "
Zack seemed to be unable to control himself, so he raised his hand to make a surrender and said, "Okay, okay, I promise you! I promise you! I'll give you a few scripts to choose from. Since you're my artist, you can't be wronged."
When he said this, Melissa didn't know if it was true. Would he really realize his conscious that he wouldn't treat her badly and even asked her to choose the script?
But then Zack added, "at the same time, as your manager, I sincerely advise you that Anna is not as smart, beautiful and good at acting as you, but she is more sensible than you. She was asked to drink and she went for a big drink. She was favored by many big bosses, and you can never compete with her on this. If you really want to get along well in this circle, you can't live on your integrity! There is a saying that in the entertainment circle, men should be as shameless as dogs, and women should be as coquettish as hookers. Although this sentence is unpleasant to hear, it is reasonable. Think about it yourself. One day when you are enlightened, you may be famous! " After Zack finished speaking, he opened the door and went out. He closed the door, leaving Melissa alone in the office.
Shocked by his words, Melissa stood there still. Zack said that in their circle, people who wanted to be famous that men should be as shameless as dogs, and women should be as coquettish as hookers. Hearing this, she felt somehow sentimental.
