When Connie approached with a refreshing smell, Alfred's lips lifted slightly.
"Ignore him, Mr. Heron continues." Connie forced a smile at Javion and gestured for him to continue. Javion glanced at Alfred, and he was relieved to see that he was in a good mood.
He had long heard that Alfred's temper was bad, and now he knew it. Would he be that difficult when filming? The director secretly complained in his heart.
He looked at Connie seriously, "It's not impossible to shoot in groups, but one thing, FY Entertainment wanted to add more parts to their artists."
Connie glanced at screenwriter Rose sharply. "What's the meaning?"
As we all know, the time in a movie was fixed. If they asked for more, other artists' part would inevitably be reduced. In other words, the supporting roles wanted to steal the main role's part. Then why didn't call it Story of The Supporting Roles?
Javion sighed and took out his phone to show Connie. "Harleen is on the hot search, and it's positive. Her agency thinks this is a good opportunity, so they use her to negotiate with our crew."
"What positive?" When Connie heard this, she took the phone and swiped it.
It turned out that Harleen sent his neighbor's aunt to the hospital to see a doctor, which was posted on the Internet, attracting a lot of attention, and then many neighbors praised Harleen. After a few visits, it became a hot search, and many passers-by clicked in and found that Harleen looked pretty good. In addition, she was very nice to the people, and her previous experience was very inspiring. Everyone thought she was a down-to-earth star, and many people expressed their goodwill toward her.
Harleen's Twitter followers soared by 2 million, making her popular.
Harleen hadn't made a statement, but her agency called Javion to make a request.
Harleen's acting skills were good, and her image was good. If she acted in other people's plays, she could make a lot of money for the company. But in The Twins crew, people with discerning eyes knew that this movie was for artists of SFLE Media, and they would not give Harleen too many highlights. In addition, when she signed the contract before, Harleen still earned less remuneration. The termination fee was not much, and this loss could be made up for by taking other dramas.
The attitude of FY Entertainment was tough for a while.
Connie laughed. "FY Entertainment is crazy about money, right?"
She was a rookie who has just gained some popularity, and her agency would pull her back. If the news of adding a role to the scene spread, she would be a little popular.
Javion tapped his fingers on the table, "If there is enough time, it'll be okay to cancel the contract." But now that the filming was about to start, where could he find a suitable second female lead?
If it spread out and Lottie was labeled with a bad name, that'd be not a good thing.
The most important thing was that Javion was quite satisfied with Harleen, and he was down-to-earth, without the impetuousness of a new actor. After understanding what the agency was doing, he apologized, saying that her part of the remuneration could be waived just for getting her a chance to act.
Javion was prone to soft-hearted, and it was not easy for him to see Harleen as a little girl, so he told Rose about it. Rose thought about it and said that she could add more scenes to Harleen without cutting out the main role.
Javion breathed a sigh of relief. It happened that Connie called, and he wanted to talk to Connie about this extra drama in person.
Connie frowned, feeling that things weren't easy.
Before she could refuse, Alfred next to him said directly, "There's no reason for that. The script was set a long time ago. To accommodate the change, other artist companies will follow suit and negotiate with the crew after the artist becomes popular. Javion, what kind of prestige do you have as a director in the crew?"
After Javion heard it, his heart skipped a beat.
He couldn't help muttering, "Do I still have prestige in front of you?"
Besides, Lottie and Natalia, one was the investor's wife and the other was the investor's niece-in-law, were people who he couldn't afford to offend. Not to mention Lottie and Natalia were both popular right now, plus Quy and Alfred were hard to deal with.
