Producer Li bitterly smiled. "I don't think she can do it."
Director Jackson: "How would you know if you don't try? Didn't you tell her that I invited her? I, the famous director Jackson, invited her! "
Producer Li didn't want to disobey this famous director, so he could only say, "Okay, I'll try."
As he spoke, he stood up and walked to an empty seat between Lin Chuxue and the other two. He coughed and said, "Excuse me, Miss Lin, I'm the director of Jingke Film Company. My last name is Li, and this is my business card. I have a female lead in a blockbuster that might be suitable for you."
"I'm sorry, I've already retired from the film industry. I don't want to participate in movies anymore." Lin Chuxue directly interrupted him.
"Miss Lin, I know how difficult it is for an artist to make a comeback. You've seen how easy it is to make money in the entertainment industry nowadays, especially in the mainland market. Many old artists are begging to come back to make money. With your talent, all you need is a blockbuster movie with a good reputation to return to the industry. You can make three times more money than before, so why not?"
"Mr. Li, I don't think you understand what I mean. I don't want to shoot any more movies." Lin Chuxue firmly rejected him.
Producer Li felt that maybe he didn't say it clearly, so Lin Chuxue didn't hear him clearly, but he still smacked his lips and said, "Do you know about the great director Jackson? He's the director of this 100 million USD movie, and he's also the one who sincerely invited you to act in it! "
As he spoke, Producer Li pointed at Jackson on the other side of the judges' table. When that guy saw Lin Chuxue turn around, he even waved at her with a frivolous look in his eyes.
Auntie Lan suppressed her anger. "Are you deaf or retarded? You can't hear me, right? Miss Lin said she doesn't want to act, so get out of here. "
Producer Li: "We're paying the female lead 20 million! Think about it, the key is that this movie can bring you at least a few hundred million worth of contracts and advertising contracts. I know that Miss Lin's salary at her peak was only 10 million. Think about it. "
Lin Chuxue was about to refuse, but Director Jackson already walked over. He directly moved a seat and said straightforwardly, "Okay, Miss Lin, right? Don't beat around the bush, I know you're here for this role. I don't think it's a coincidence that you're here. Everyone knows that we're here for this role, so I'm guessing you must have planned to come here and pretend to be here. To be honest, we're all in the same industry. I've seen female artists in Hollywood that are more scheming than you. They would do anything to get a role, just to get it. I can say that you have successfully attracted my attention. Let, let's talk.'t.
He was afraid that Lin Chuxue couldn't understand English, so he asked Producer Li to translate for her.
"Jackson'm": Li't't't't't.
At ''t't't't' I't't't't't't ''t't' ''t' '''t't't ''t't't't't't't't, didn' know.
At least, she didn't want to hear it!
Manman knew that Director Jackson misunderstood Lin Chuxue. She also understood English, and she also understood what the director was trying to say. However, she knew that this was a coincidence because Auntie Lan needed to help her check on Lin Chuxue's body condition. She didn't appear here for the role.
So, in order not to offend Director Jackson, she smiled and said, "I think Mr. Jackson, you misunderstood."
Jackson waved his hand. "You said it's not good to be too honest, right? Come, Miss Lin, let's go backstage and talk. I know what you need, I can give it to you. I can tell you right now, you are my female lead! "
He poked Producer Li and said, "Tell her, tell her, don't pretend. If you don't know, it'll be hard for us to continue."
He had no reason to suspect that Lin Chuxue's appearance wasn't intentional. He had seen too many female stars in Hollywood that would try everything to get close to him. This was how the industry worked. He didn't believe that a female artist wouldn't know that she was here for the audition. Her motive was obvious.
If there weren't so many people here, Lin Chuxue would have already beaten this Jackson to the ground!
She suppressed her anger, but she gritted her teeth and said to Jackson in English, "You don't need to translate for me, I understand. Now, I'm warning you, apologize for what you said, or else I'll send you a lawyer's letter."
Jackson was stunned for a moment, but then he laughed. "That's even better. Since you can speak English, then you don't need to find a dubber. Although my words are harsh, you can understand me, which means you're a good person. 30 million! This is the salary I gave you on my own initiative! It's definitely the highest salary for a female artist in the country. "
Manman felt that if she didn't support Lin Chuxue now, they wouldn't be friends, so she directly said, "Mr. Jackson, this is China, please don't use your standards for Hollywood. Not everyone is the kind of person you say they are. You really owe my friend an apology!"
"In this industry, it's the right thing for a celebrity to be supported by a director. There's no need for me to apologize to a female artist who needs me to make her famous. We're both taking what we need. There's no point in pretending anymore." Jackson was a little impatient. He put his hands on his hips and said, "I'll ask you one last time. Are you willing or not?"
Lin Chuxue: "I have to ask my auntie."
Jackson shrugged with a 'I guessed it right' expression. "Hurry up, I don't have much time."
Lin Chuxue looked at Auntie Lan's confused face and asked, "Auntie, do you not understand English?"
Auntie Lan nodded. "That's right. I'm from a clan, and I've been serving the Chinese my whole life. That's why I didn't learn English."
Lin Chuxue lightly smiled, glanced at Jackson, and then said to Auntie Lan, "There's a guy here who thinks he's a big director and thinks I'm a female artist from the past. He wants to set rules for me. What do you think I should do?"
When Auntie Lan heard that, her eyes widened and her killing intent rose!
It was killing intent!
She was not angry. She took off her high heels and threw them at Jackson's head!
"Ah!" Jackson's head was directly smashed by Auntie Lan's high heels, and blood flowed out. He screamed in pain on the spot, and everyone at the scene panicked.
Producer Li was also stunned. He quickly supported Jackson and roared at Lin Chuxue and the others, "What is the meaning of this?"
Lin Chuxue faintly smiled. "I'm sorry, this is my reply. Mr. Jackson, if you want to sue, you're welcome to do so. My identity and name are very easy to find. If I, Lin Chuxue, was a pushover, then I wouldn't have been my husband's wife."
After saying that, Lin Chuxue turned around and walked away.
She didn't even care about the screaming Jackson.
After every two steps, Lin Chuxue thought of something and turned around to remind Jackson, "Oh right, don't go and find out who my husband is. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't dare to find trouble with me. Today, these high heels are a small gift for you for disrespecting me with your mouth. If you still want to find trouble with me, I'm more than happy to welcome it. I don't cause trouble, but that doesn't mean I'm afraid of trouble. "
