Chapter 442 - 441: Third Female Lead
Director Simons acknowledging Bella Acker like this is already a form of affirmation.
If he wasn’t somewhat satisfied, regardless of his relationship with Archer Quinn and Cynthia Young, he would have directly given a negative answer.
After Bella finished her performance, she immediately collected her tears and politely nodded, "Director Simons, I’ve finished my performance."
Cynthia Young was also quite satisfied with Bella’s performance, and turned to look at Director Simons, waiting for him to speak.
Director Simons said, "I need to think it over, I can’t give you an answer right away."
Upon hearing this, Bella felt a slight disappointment in her heart, but she also understood that for a prestigious director like Simons, there are definitely standards when it comes to actor selection. Not to mention, she’s not a formally trained actress, there are definitely many areas in her acting that need improvement.
"Alright, thank you Director Simons for giving me this audition opportunity." Bella thanked sincerely.
Director Simons saw her honest, good student-like demeanor and laughed, "I didn’t know earlier you couldn’t drink. If I had known, I wouldn’t have made you drink those three glasses, you could have performed even better. But even now, your Spiritual Energy is quite impressive, you’re doing quite well among new actors."
"No problem at all, it’s because we were late." Bella waved her hand repeatedly, feeling quite happy to receive such a compliment from a famous director.
"Alright, go back and wait for the notice." Director Simons said as he turned his gaze towards Archer Quinn, "Now that business is done, we’re preparing to move to the next place, are you coming?"
Archer Quinn laughed and shook his head, "I have something to discuss with Bella, so I won’t be going."
Does this mean he’s taking Bella with him? This guy, is it really necessary to protect a new actress so fiercely?
Director Simons leaned closer to him and whispered, "What? Really caught your eye?"
Archer Quinn glanced at him, gave a low laugh, picked up his wine glass, and clinked it lightly with Simons’, saying, "Director Simons, are you becoming so gossipy because you don’t want to film movies anymore and plan to switch careers to become a paparazzo?"
"You brat, what’s wrong with asking? You’re not even revealing a bit." Director Simons said, "You’re hurrying back here eagerly, if she doesn’t even care, I bet you’ll regret it."
"I don’t know if I’ll regret it in the future, but since Director Simons mentioned it, I’ll call my agent and tell him not to negotiate the movie contract with you. Otherwise, Director Simons may lose interest in filmmaking and focus solely on gossiping about my love life." Archer Quinn shrugged with feigned regret.
"What? Your schedule is open?" Director Simons, upon hearing this, couldn’t care less about the gossip and immediately asked, "Can you free up three months to do the movie?"
Archer Quinn smiled, "For Director Simons’ movie, how could I possibly refuse?"
"Good lad, very considerate." Director Simons laughed heartily, "I’ll have the assistant director send the contract to your company. To be honest, aside from you, I can’t think of a more suitable candidate for the male lead. Your presence makes this movie halfway successful. Brother, thank you."
"Director Simons, you’re being too generous with your words. Though others might not know it, I certainly do." Archer Quinn chuckled, "Just the news of your movie auditions will attract plenty of excellent actors. It’s not like missing me will really make a difference."
"Heh." Director Simons grinned, "Because of your loyalty, I’ll make an exception this time. Let your little girlfriend take the role of the third female lead."
