Chapter 261 Dignity
The director felt confused, but he could only bear it. More and more people came to inquire about the news of the TV series after Jonas spread the news.
Smart people all knew that it was a good chance, and Emily was not willing to let it go.
That day, she was so focused on Melinda and Jonas that she didn't know which director was their partner.
However, Emily was not afraid of that. Her only purpose was to be the heroine, no matter what price she had to pay. She felt happy as long as she could make Melinda feel sick
It was an exciting event in the entertainment circle. A lot of wine parties were held there.
Emily sneaked into these parties. In this party, the vice director who had been cooperating with Elmer for a long time who could talk to Elmer or let people make friends with Elmer.
He was likely to be the target of many people of tonight's party.
And Emily was the same. Today she was not as high-profile as before, but she was not bad. She was a woman who wanted to show her beauty all the time.
There were a lot of flattery around that person, and Emily couldn't squeeze in. She looked around, and many people said that Elmer would also come to the party tonight, but different from them.
Elmer was in a private room with several partners, so she couldn't see him outside.
However, Emily did not give up. She looked around from time to time. People came and went at the party. Everyone began to develop their social network with a smile.
There were too many people in the party. Whether they could get a role depended on their luck. They might as well take an opportunity to seek the future.
"Director Liu, long time no see." Emily finally found a chance and walked up to the director. Director Liu looked at Emily and knew everything clearly.
Many people came to see him tonight just to cotton up with him like Emily.
However, there was a slight difference between Emily and others' politeness. Even though this woman was so abject, the arrogance that did not suit her still existed.
Emily was wearing a black tight strapless long dress, showing her perfect body. Her makeup was retro, and her red lips seemed to be seductive.
No one would deny that Emily was a stunner.
Not only her look, but also her temper was so hot.
Of course, Director Liu heard all these from others. He knew that Emily disdained to cooperate with directors like him before, so she stressed a "vice" on purpose every time when they met.
But now, she had to turn to him for help. It sounded better.
"Isn't that Miss Bai? You look much prettier now." Director Liu was also a slid guy. No matter what he was thinking, a bright smile appeared on his face. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Emily was accustomed to these compliments, and she knew that he was just being polite, smiling.
"I'm wondering if Director Liu is available to have a talk with me." Emily came straight to the point, her eyes proud.
Director Liu was a sly fox. He was clear about Emily's purpose upon hearing it. He experienced such a situation tonight for many times and always refused with ease.
However, he was a little surprised by Emily. This was a popular TV play. But did she forget what happened in the past?
"Please go ahead, Miss Bai," Director Liu said. Emily pointed to a dark corridor not far away where no one would go due to the dim light.
Director Liu took a look, and then nodded, he was more curious about what attractive conditions Emily could give.
Emily followed Director Liu to a corner, and then showed her chips. At the sight of the key, Director Liu's eyes lit up. She was a person who had been shut out of the company, but this person had the greater attraction than anyone else.
"As the vice director of the TV series, isn't it normal to recommend an actress to the director? Director Liu, why do you care so much?" Emily saw that he was obviously interested, but still did not open his mouth, she could not help but feel a little anxious.
Director Liu calmed down. It was no big deal for him to recommend an actress. The most important thing was that Emily was quite confident in this role. He felt a little scared.
'If Emily blames on me once she doesn't get the role, my reputation will be ruined.'
"Miss Bai is such an excellent woman. You are qualified to take part in the audition," Director Liu said with a smile.
After all, he was a sly old fox. However, Emily could do nothing about it, and she did not speak ambiguously for fear he would not be willing to help.
"Everything will be fine as long as you let me meet the director," said Emily. Director Liu hesitantly said yes, but he didn't tell the specific time to meet Emily.
Not wanting to be tricked, Emily said directly, "I heard that Director Lin is here today."
Director Liu felt embarrassed to conceal the fact since he had received the bribes from her. Moreover, the news had been exposed.
"Yes, he is drinking with his friends in that room. I will take you with me later," Director Liu said. Emily smiled with satisfaction. This man finally began to do the right thing.
"It doesn't matter. How about we have dinner tomorrow night?" Emily said. She thought that his preparation was not enough tonight. Director Liu didn't say anything, but acquiesced in Emily's order. After all, he had received the bribes from her.
Tonight, a wise person would find that the atmosphere between Emily and Director Liu was very harmonious. Director Liu even introduced Emily to many people.
Now Emily had no more position in his career and Director Liu's flattery didn't do him any good. It was so obvious that they were scheming something.
Director Liu didn't want to have a long delay. He said to Director Lin about it and he would go to meet him with Emily after his friends left.
By that time, he would be totally drunk. Hence, something would be easily achieved. His plan was quite clever.
In the end, Emily did not choose to delay. The priority of this matter was to arrive first. If she was late for a day, her role would be taken away by others.
She heard that many people were thinking about it.
All cooperation in the entertainment field was business by table. Emily's drinking capacity was not bad, and she had made full preparations. Then she would drink wine to chat and naturally get the heroine.
Director Liu was just a bridge in the middle, so the result of their discussion had nothing to do with him.
Emily was also excited. She had spent a lot of price in exchange for this opportunity, and she must grasp it hard. She did not believe that she could not get this role with her own methods.
Thinking of this, Emily felt a little better. The party was still going on. She quietly left with Director Liu from a small door aside. The hotel was very large. They walked for a long time before they stopped in front of a box.
"Let's go. Director Lin is inside. I'm only responsible for the introduction. You can handle the rest." It was a hotel that thought highly of privacy. Emily walked into the box with her head down.
A man was lying on the sofa with a cigarette in his hand. The table hadn't been cleaned yet. Seeing the messy table, she could guess what had happened just now.
Director Liu came to Director Lin without any hesitation. He noticed that there was still a cup of tea on the table, smoke curling up, but the pleasant smell was concealed gradually.
"There are a lot of people today. Are you drunk?" He greeted Elmer warmly and asked. Elmer opened his eyes and squinted at him. He was supposed to let him drink for him today, but unexpectedly he escaped and went out for a banquet.
Emily was stunned when she saw Elmer.
She would never be unfamiliar with the person. She would never have thought that the director that Melinda was working with would be this person. If all the previous assumptions were not valid, then things might become troublesome.
Director Liu, who greeted with Elmer, didn't notice her unusual behavior. After a few words, he said naturally, "I've gained something at the cocktail party. I want to recommend a person to you."
While speaking, he moved aside so that Elmer could see Emily behind him. When their eyes met, Elmer's face changed and he gave a brittle laugh.
Emily couldn't help but clench her bag tightly. In her eyes, Elmer was just a shadow of her. She once tried hard but failed to hook up with him.
Why would Melinda cooperate with this man?
The more Emily thought about it, the more unwilling she was. Emily's face began to twist. Director Liu saw the bad look on Emily's face and looked at them perplexedly, wondering how to smooth it over.
"Your taste in casting is getting worse and worse. Which part of her is like the character? Do you want the novel's fans to laugh at you by recommending this kind of actress?" Elmer denied Emily directly. He thought that Emily was a perfect match for that evil role in the play.
But he didn't like this woman, so he was unwilling to give her even an unimportant role in the play.
Being humiliated like this, an unpleasant memory welled up in Emily's mind in an instant. Looking at him with a pale face, she was wondering whether to forget everything that had happened in the past in order to get the role.
However, it turned out that Emily thought too much. Elmer didn't give her the chance to say anything. He opened the door directly and asked a waiter to take her out.
"This is my box. How can anyone come in without my permission? Is this the attitude of service in your hotel?" Elmer's attitude made Emily feel awkward. Even Director Liu who had just recommended her began to feel awkward.
He didn't expect that Emily would offend him so much.
These men all attracted a lot of attention as they often showed up in the TV. However, when they saw Emily, they laughed more than before.
Last time when Emily hooked up with Elmer, he kicked her out. This time, he drove her out in front of a lot of people. Emily felt so humiliated that she left in disgrace.
