Chapter 1417


    Chapter 1417 Overly Inexperienced


    Charlotte wasn''t afraid of infuriating him. She sipped some coffee and continued, “From my perspective


    as an audience member, I prefer those shots that are suggestive but not explicit, the ones that tantalize


    and tease me.”


    Working as a director, Kieron had even won the Best Director award. With just one sentence, Charlotte


    knew exactly what he meant.


    “Indeed, movies nowadays are quite different from those in the past...”


    Kieron stroked his chin in thought. “Our female audience enjoys the subtle charm of a veiled beauty,


    but the male audience prefers more exciting plots. The investors are also quite satisfied with the script.”


    Thergest investor in this movie was Rising Cloud Pictures, who had the right to interfere with the


    script. They could also pass on a director''s casting choice if they weren''t satisfied.


    The script that satisfied the biggest investor was not something that Kieron could change as he


    pleased.


    Charlotte saw that he was unwilling to back down, so she politely said, “Mr. Zuniga, if I weren''t sincere,


    I wouldn''t have personally sent Scarlette to the screen test when you first sent the invitation. She has a


    great image, and the intimate scene could bring her tremendous exposure, even skyrocketing her


    career. Who wouldn''t want to seize such a great opportunity? However, Scarlette must maintain her


    image since she has signed a contract with Ophelia Cosmetics. She cannot ept roles with such


    explicit scenes during her endorsement period.”


    Hearing that, Kieron narrowed his eyes slowly. “You mean, if we don''t remove the intimate scenes, she


    won''t take this role?”


    “I''m sorry, but yes. After all, Ophelia Cosmetics'' penalty fee is too high, and we can''t afford to pay it.”


    Charlotte picked up the coffee pot and filled Kieron''s cup.


    She put on a humble stance. “Mr. Zuniga, I don''t mean to upset you, but I''m just an employee following


    my superior''s orders... How about this? We will take on another film with you after Scarlette''s contract


    expires with Ophelia Cosmetics. You can have four or even five intimate scenes, no problem.”


    “You sure know how to entice people, girl.” Kieron could see what Charlotte was thinking. “Once


    Scarlette''s contract with Ophelia Cosmetics expires, you''ll find another excuse to brush me off.”


    Moreover, three years was such a long time. By then, Scarlette might have grown tired of the industry


    and announced her retirement.


    Charlotte said earnestly, “I wouldn''t dare to deceive you. I''m being sincere. We can sign a contract if


    you''re worried that I might make empty promises.”


    Kieron merely snorted and asked, “The traditional gown that Scarlette wore at the charity dinner, did


    you prepare it for her?”


    “Yes, I did.” Charlotte also knew what was on Kieron''s mind.


    However, she didn''t say anything, waiting for Kieron to speak.


    Then, Kieron said, “Ms. Joule''s craftsmanship in making traditional gowns is considered second to


    none in the industry. No one dares to im they''re better. I wanted to coborate with her for myst


    film, but she was too arrogant. I sent several people to negotiate with her, but none could persuade her.


    Otherwise, that movie might have won an award.”


    As he spoke, he looked at Charlotte. “If you can convince Ms. Joule to help me with the makeup and


    costumes for this movie, I''ll remove all the intimate scenes.”


    “You''ve already said that she''s prideful. I don''t think I can persuade her.” Charlottezily leaned back in


    her chair. “Isn''t Jerry''s girlfriend jealous because of the intimate scenes in his new movie? Even if I


    don''te to you, you will still remove those intimate scenes to keep him as the male lead.”


    “That''s not necessarily the case,” Kieron said meaningfully. “I originally had someone else in mind for


    the male lead in this movie, but you came the other night and rmended Jerry. Didn''t you say you


    rarely meet with him? Why are you so concerned about the artists under other agents?”


    Caught off guard, Charlotte cursed silently in her heart.


    She was scared of arousing suspicion, so she imed she had nothing to do with Jerry. However, she


    didn''t expect to fall into his trap when he questioned her, giving him the leverage he needed.


    In the end, Charlotte reached an agreement with Kieron, assuring him that she would invite Le to be


    the costume designer for his film.


    Moreover, herment about a suggestive scene gave Kieron quite a bit of inspiration. Hence, he


    sketched out a storyboard on the notebook he always carried with him. After finishing, he handed it to


    Charlotte for her to review.


    Charlotte was momentarily speechless.


    She guessed that Kieron was not satisfied with those few intimate scenes, but it was difficult for him to

    confront the investors directly. Today, she happened to give him an excuse.


    Compared to him, she was still overly inexperienced in this field.
