Chapter 331 Male Lead With 100 Million Fans
“Hello, Ms. Lorimer. I'm Marc Warburg!"Vivian was discussing the ten web blockbusters with the director when she heard an unexpected voice. Vivian turned around and saw a young, handsome young man looking at her. Since Vivian was not interested in movie stars, she did not know who Marc was "Ms. Lorimer, This is Marc Warburg, the male lead of our ten web blockbusters!" Rodney Gill, the chairman of Tension Pictures quickly introduced Marc to Vivian."Ms. Lorimer, nice to meet you!" Marc reached out and tried to shake Vivian's hand."Are you the male lead? Nice to meet you!" Vivian nodded, but she did not reach out. She smiled and said, "I'm very sorry. I am married. I dislike having physical contact with other men apart from my husband."Marc was a little disappointed when he heard Vivian was married. However, the idea of sleeping with a married woman excited Marc because they were experienced.Marc's rise to fame as a trainee actor in only three years was closely related to the

Chapter 332 Marc's Scheme
Everyone was surprised. Jenn had actually scolded Vivian, the president, in public.The director was shocked and reprimanded her with a stern face, "How rude! She is Ms. Lorimer, the president of the company!""Exactly!" Marc was annoyed at Jenn for disturbing him and agreed with the director. "Jenn, where is your professionalism as an actor? Don't you know you should be polite when you're speaking to the boss?"Jenn felt aggrieved when she saw so many people taking Vivian's side. Although Jenn was the female lead, she still needed to obey Marc.After all, she was already 30 years old. An actress who was older than 30 would seldom get an opportunity to be the female lead. The opportunity to become a female lead for someone like Jenn was close to none. If she had an opportunity to act, it would be a mature female role.Besides, the market was full of young and famous actresses waiting to become the female lead. That was why Jenn kept quiet when she was reprimanded by the director a

Chapter 333 False Information
Marc stood in front of the door and blocked Vivian's way.At the same time, he also tried showing off his biceps while saying confidently, "Ms. Lorimer, I'm giving you a chance tonight to sleep with me! This is a rare opportunity. You'd better take it."When Marc did this in the past, even young female entrepreneurs would be charmed let alone those old and ugly rich women. So, Marc was sure that Vivian would also do the same."Marc, what is the meaning of this?" Marc did not expect Vivian to be shocked.However, Vivian's reaction interested Marc even more. This was way more fun compared to the other ladies who were easily hooked. Marc preferred someone who would put up a fight."Ms. Lorimer, stop pretending!" Marc chuckled and said, "We both know why you are here. Let's not make it obvious.""I'm here to hear your ideas about our company's development!" Vivian frowned. She looked around and saw no one except for Marc's manager, Lila Cooper. So, Vivian asked her, "Didn't you say y

Chapter 334 Why Pay to Watch a Bad Film?
Vivian was dumbfounded when she heard Lila's answer."Lila, how could you lie?" Vivian asked anxiously. "That was not what happened!""That is exactly what happened!" Lila said firmly. "Ms. Lorimer, I remember you coming into the room and posing seductively while trying to create sexual tension. You even asked me to leave just for the purpose of seducing Marc!""Ms. Lorimer, did you hear that?" Jenn asked angrily. "What do you have to say for yourself?""All of you are falsely accusing me!" Vivian was angry."Hey, Ms. Lorimer, that's something I don't want to hear!" Marc said arrogantly. "You did something so immoral and disgraceful, but you said we were the ones who accused you. What you did affects my reputation. I want you to make a public apology.""Yes!" Jenn echoed Marc's request. "You must apologize to Marc in public!"Although Jenn knew this incident probably happened because of Marc's misbehavior, Marc was still the only thing on her mind. So, she would side with Marc r

Chapter 335 Graduates of Northfort Film Academy
After all, changing the lead actor and actress of a single film was serious enough, let alone ten films.Besides, the marketing was already done. Changing the male and female leads would greatly impact the box office reception.So, Vivian shook her head and thought Marcus' idea was too naive."Finding actors is very easy," Marcus smiled and said. "Phisteele Corporation has been recruiting graduates from Northfort Film Academy. I have been appointed as the person in charge of the recruitment.""What?" Vivian was confused. "Aren't you the head of the security department? When did you start doing recruitment?""I did it to help your buddy, Jill!" Marcus smirked and added, "Similar to Tension Inc., Phisteele Corporation is also going to venture into the entertainment industry to support Tension Pictures. However, Jill was busy and couldn't find a suitable candidate. So, she got me to help her out."Marcus sounded like he still had a grudge against Jill for sending him to be in charge

Chapter 336 In Cahoots
Bray and Dale started laying their plans after returning from Prudence County. After all, Zenith, who'd been living in seclusion for the past 50 years, had agreed to make an appearance. He would even deal with Phisteele Corporation personally!With such a powerful force backing them up, Bray and Dale couldn't just laze around. That was why they got to work immediately upon returning to Northfort.Before Zenith arrived in Northfort, they wouldn't dare lay a finger on Phisteele Corporation. Instead, they set their sights on Tension Incorporated, which Phisteele Corporation had invested in. It was partly also because Vivian was the chairman of Tension Inc.They vowed to take over Tension Inc.'s entertainment wing. Because of this, Marc Warburg, who had millions of fans, caught their attention.In the private room of a high-end restaurant, Dale shook his head, pretending to look sorry on Marc's behalf. He said, "You have millions of fans, Marc, and you're the hottest celebrity right no

Chapter 337 Going on Strike
Rodney glanced at the students behind Vivian. In terms of their looks alone, they weren't half bad. The guys were handsome, and the ladies were pretty. It just so happened the ten films still needed some actors for the side characters."Alright, then." Rodney nodded. "I guess that's all we can do for now. But I do have to ask you to bear with Marc, Ms. Lorimer. He is our male lead, after all.""I'll deal with Marc," Vivian said. "We can't delay the filming, so have the director assign these students some roles."And so, Rodney brought the students to the director. The director decided to do as Vivian said and proceed to film the scenes with the side characters.The students had strong foundations in acting, and this was their first time meeting a director with the caliber to shoot ten films at the same time. They were all excited and gave their best during the filming.They generally managed to complete the filming for their scenes with a single take. This pleased the director."

Chapter 338 Vivian Has a Bold Idea
When Jenn saw the look Marc secretly gave her, she understood that he was about to cause a scene. So, she stepped forward and said, "You guys are so unprofessional to disrespect Marc like this. I'm disappointed in you, so I'm gonna join Marc on strike!"When the rest of the actors who'd been present at the dinner with Bray and Dale saw this, they immediately understood what was happening. They quickly agreed with Marc and Jenn, claiming that they, too, were going on strike.The director was stunned by this. If one or two actors were to go on strike, the filming could still go on. But now that they were all going on strike together, he couldn't help thinking it was a premeditated move.They had ten films to film. What the hell was he going to film if he didn't have any actors?The director panicked. He said appeasingly, "This is all a misunderstanding, Marc! How about I have these students apologize to you? I'm sure we can settle this the easy way. You're the male lead for ten films

Chapter 339 Changing the Lead Actors
After all, Courtney and Gareth had both come from the country, and their families were middle-class at best. Their parents had saved every nickel and penny to get them through Northfort Film Academy.This was all in the hopes that they would one day become famous and change their fates.To them, getting the chance to replace Marc and Jenn as the leads in ten films was an incredible way to kick off their careers.Because of the sudden change in lead actors, all the scenes that had been filmed earlier had to be scrapped and refilmed. Fortunately, Marc wasn't the best actor. In fact, he was terrible. The director didn't feel bad about scrapping everything he'd filmed at all.With Courtney and Gareth now taking on the lead roles, filming went exceedingly well. Firstly, they were both rookies and naturally went along with everything the director said.Secondly, they'd both been professionally trained and had plenty of theoretical knowledge. They quickly adapted to their characters.Th

Chapter 340 Poaching
Tension Pictures was releasing ten films, and Forme Entertainment was doing the same. Was Dale joking?After all, film production was something that burned holes in one's pocket. Aside from finding the right actors, one also had to make sure they had the right director and a good script. No film would succeed without any of these."So, you've already been wanting to enter the film industry, Mr. Coleman. We'll gladly lend Forme Entertainment a hand!" Marc said. He was excited at the mere thought of Dale promising to pay him 100 million dollars for every film he was in.Ten films meant he'd be earning a billion dollars! Certain films didn't even generate that much revenue.Jenn and the other actors were also quick to volunteer themselves."Yes, you're right." Dale nodded. "Forme Entertainment is ready to make its entrance into the film industry. It's too bad this is only the first step. I may have found the perfect actors, but that's far from enough."We don't even have the scripts
