Chapter 769 Relenting To The Director


    “Let''s take the gown she''s wearing right now as an example. Originally, the director wanted a higher


    slit—he wanted it all the way up to her upper thigh—but Evelyn refused to agree to that. There were


    two kiss scenes in the morning, too, but Evelyn was adamant not to film them either. The actor is


    currently in the break room, waiting to find out if the scriptwriter is going to make adjustments to the


    script,” Nikita continued.


    After listening to herints, Donald nced at her and asked, “Did you read the contract from


    Werner Brothers Studios?”


    “I did.”


    “Isn''t there a use in the contract stating that they would fully respect Ms. Shabelle''s wishes and


    keep her public image in mind during shooting?”


    Nikita was stumped by his words.


    “Yes, but no one in the entertainment industry can avoid kissing scenes,” she exined.


    In a less confident voice, she continued, “Mr. Campbell, Evelyn has the potential, but she''s a little


    too reserved, and that''s why she hasn''t been able to rise to fame.”


    As a professional manager, Nikita knew there was only one way for female artistes to be


    popr, and that was to expose their skin.


    That had been done since the seventies and eighties.


    Each of the women who skyrocketed to stardom made their way there by taking off their clothes.


    Every one of them had a sexy image.


    Their poprity was more important than the damage to their reputation and the ensuing public


    scrutiny that woulde after achieving fame.


    The more unblushing the attractive female artistes of the silver screen were, the richer the men they


    would end up marrying.


    Even though everyone knew that female artistes were only toys to wealthy men, they reckoned they


    should be fine as long as they had money.


    Everything else did not matter.


    That was what Nikita thought as well, so she felt that Evelyn would not go far in the entertainment


    industry with her current coy and innocent public image.


    As if Donald had read Nikita''s mind, he said to her, “I chose Evelyn over Zoey because a female


    artiste isn''t the only thing ourpany is cultivating. We''re also cultivating Dragon Fide


    Corporation''s spokesperson. If you can''t understand thepany''s strategy and why we''re trying to


    keep Evelyn''s innocent public image, then I don''t think you''re that suitable to be her assistant.”


    Nikita panicked in an instant.

    “I''m so sorry, Mr. Campbell. I''ve thought wrongly. I swear I''ll do my best to aid Ms. Shabelle from


    now on,” she said.


    Many people thought that being a manager of an artiste was a glorious job.


    However, there were risks involved.


    Most of the managers were at the bottom of the pyramid. They could not get any gigs for their


    artistes or provide them with any professional assistance.


    Before Nikita was assigned to Evelyn, she worked with an unpopr artiste for over four years.


    Throughout those years, thetter had never been on a proper variety show, let alone had a role in


    a film.


    Hence, there was no way Nikita was going to let go of the golden opportunity to rise to fame


    overnight when thepany finally transferred her to work with Evelyn, someone thepany


    ced much focus on.


    Knowing that his censure was effective, Donald stated unemotionally, “I''ve never been one who


    pays attention to what others say; I''ve always been one to pay attention to what others do.”
