It wasn't like the models had never seen anything more luxurious than Chen Zhao's house.
However, Chen Zhao's house wasn't just luxurious.
It was surrounded by mountains and rivers. The scenery was pleasant. The entire environment was setting off the house's comfort.
All the models looked at Fali enviously.
Everything about Chen Zhao was attracting them.
Young, rich, strong, and mysterious at the same time.
The models couldn't help but want to get close to Chen Zhao.
After entering the water, Lapore quickly recovered. She listened to James's order and dove down.
Like a mermaid, she swayed her body and her beautiful hair fluttered in the water. She didn't look messy at all.
Just then, a huge black shadow appeared in the water.
Raphael was startled. The shadow had a terrifying sense of oppression.
Lapore was about to escape when James's voice sounded in her earpiece.
"Don't panic. It's Amon. He's very friendly. Give me your hand."
It was a dreamy shot.
Lapore had never had such magical contact before.
Because of the light underwater, she couldn't see Amon's full face.
But even so, she could still feel Amon's huge body.
When her palm came into contact with Amon's head, the smooth touch made her forget her fear.
Just then, Amon swung his head and tail. A huge current rushed over and pushed Lapore to the surface.
Lapore floated up and the cameraman followed. He gestured at James on the deck.
"Okay, you can come up now," James said. "Change your clothes and do the next shot."
"Mr. James, do I still have more shots?"
"Don't you need them?"
"No, I'll be happy if you have more."
The second shot was next to the house. The other models were all jealous when they saw that Lapore had so many shots.
A promo was about five minutes long.
But there were more than ten models here. Each model was given less than 30 seconds.
Lapore, on the other hand, had almost a minute.
It was just to make her look better.
The other models seemed to have become supporting characters.
But she couldn't help it. She had someone to rely on.
Of course, for the promotional video, every model would be assigned a different time according to their ability and fame.
They couldn't really split the time equally.
It was impossible for Raphael to have a minute to himself. He would definitely shorten the time in the later stages.
However, even if it was shortened, Raphael had shot so many scenes that it would definitely take up a lot of time.
After the shooting of Lapour, it was time for the other models to shoot.
There was also the group shot of the models.
In front of the camera, the models were as radiant as spring sunshine.
Show the best side of yourself.
They knew how to present the most beautiful scene in front of the camera.
All their gestures were so pleasing to the eye.
"Darling, do you see that? They're making eyes at you. Those bitches." Fali nestled in Chen Zhao's arms.
Chen Zhao shrugged nonchalantly. "Why would I like those mediocre girls?"
"You men just like to say one thing and mean another."
The shooting of James and the model took the whole afternoon.
As the hosts, Chen Zhao and Fali also prepared some food for them.
Even under the setting sun, James did not forget to seize the opportunity to shoot a few sets of shots.
"James, won't you stay for dinner?"
"No, I still have something to do." Smiling, James shook his head. "I've taken up the whole afternoon. I should go too."
"Okay. Be careful on the way."
"Chen, do you want to make a guest appearance in my new movie?"
"I'll go if I have time." Chen Zhao hugged James. "Goodbye."
The models gathered behind James, their eyes filled with envy.
It was impossible for them to even appear in a scene in James' movie.
However, Chen Zhao could receive James' invitation.
That was the difference between people.
The bus slowly drove away from the mansion.
A model asked boldly, "Mr. James, do you have a new movie to shoot?"
"Yes," James answered indifferently. "I'm still casting."
The models' eyes lit up.
"Mr. James, do you need us for anything?"
"I'm not sure yet. The script isn't out yet." James would not agree easily.
James glanced at Raphael again.
Raphael, on the other hand, was a little distracted and didn't notice James' eyes.
"Mr. James, what does that Mr. Chen do? Is he also in Hollywood?"
"No, he's a university professor," James said. "Did you forget? He's Lapour's teacher."
"But he seems to be very rich."
"What's wrong with a capable person having money?" James said matter-of-factly.
A capable person having money. This was the logic of society.
"Lapour, are you interested in acting in my movie?"
Raphael was stunned for a moment, and all the models in the bus gasped. The atmosphere became quiet in an instant.
Everyone's mouths were agape as they looked at James in disbelief.
They did not expect James to invite Lapour so actively.
Even Lapour did not expect it herself.
"But … why? I'm not famous at all … and I've never filmed any roles before. I'm afraid … I can't do it. "
"Then you better find an actor training class," James said. James said, "My movie will start shooting in three months. I will reserve a main role for you."
"Because of my teacher?" Lapour asked hesitantly.
"Of course. I owe your teacher a huge favor," James said seriously.
"But … will the investor allow it?"
It was not that Lapour doubted James' ability, but in Hollywood, not everyone had the right to decide on a role.
Even the director had no right to decide on a main role alone.
Unless it was someone as famous as Steven.
No matter how successful James was, he was only a new director, or even a young one.
"The investor is PLM, and the CEO of PLM is a good friend of your teacher. If your teacher asks for it, he can even get the female lead, let alone the main role."
The other models gasped once again as they looked at Raphael with hatred in their eyes.
It would be great if they could have this opportunity.
Even if they knew that even without Lapour, this opportunity would not fall on their heads.
But they still could not help but envy and hate Lapour.
