Chapter 148
Love in the Limelight (Astrid and Elio)
Chapter 148 Carlos fired up the computer next to him, and spotted a contract from ForgeFire Games. When he saw the investment amount on the contract, his eyes lit up, âChad, weâre stoked to cooperate with your company, you can send someone over to sign the contract immediately.â
Chad replied, âOur branch office employees are already on their way!â
âBranch office?â Carlos asked surprised, âCan someone from the branch office sign this contract?â
Chad explained, âInvesting in your movie is just a kind of entertainment for our CEO. This kind of small investment of tens of millions can be signed by people in the branch. I have a meeting. I wish you a happy cooperation. Goodbye.â
Actually, the investment decision was all Chadâs call, because the Chief couldnât be bothered with money matters, so he just went ahead and invested.
He knew, any movie with the Chief in it was bound to be a hit, and he could make a tidy profit off of it.
âI...â Carlos was cut off midâsentence, Chad had already hung up.
A few tens of millions is small change?
Although Carlos saw the investment news on ForgeFire Gamesâs official Twitter, he still had his doubts. Was this investment just falling out of the sky?
With a skeptical mind, Carlos called for a break on set, planning to wait a few hours.
Three hours later, the branch office staff arrived on set, signing the investment contract with Carlos.
When Helena heard big shots were coming, she immediately prepared to greet them. Upon seeing the branch officeâs boss, she enthusiastically greeted, âOh my, Mr. Hector, I heard you were coming, I couldnât believe it. Are you here to invest in Mr. Carlosâs movie?â
Mr. Hector and Helena knew each other from before; Helena had tried to become a spokeswoman for Forge Fire Games, but failed due to image issues.
Mr. Hector looked at the woman in front of him, chuckled and said, âYes, Iâm here to invest in this movie, and to pay a visit to the, set.â

âVisiting class?â Helena smiled and said, âAre you here to see me?â
âThatâs none of your business.â After Mr. Hector finished speaking, then politely nodded to Carlos and left.
Helena stomped her foot in frustration, cursing as she left.
In the afternoon, they continued shooting the scene from the morning.
The set was ready, everyone was waiting for Helena, but she was still sleeping, taking forever to arrive.
And she wasnât even in costume when she did.
Carlos was fuming when he saw her, âHelena, didnât we agree to start shooting at 2:30? Everyoneâs been waiting for you, youâre not even picking up your phone, itâs 3:30 now!â
Helena yawned, and arrogantly said, âDirector, I canât play this scene, I need a standâin.â
âAnd from now on, I need a standâin for sunbathing scenes, I am afraid of getting sunburned.â
âI also need a standâin for water scenes, the water is too dirty.â
âOh, and scenes where itâs windy outside, Iâd rather shoot them indoors. After shooting, you can cut out the image and give it to the postâproduction team. Thatâs all I can think of for now, if you have any issues, you can talk to Mr. Dalton about it.â
Helena sat leisurely, legs crossed, holding a cigarette in her hand, âIâve already arranged for the standâin, you guys can take your time shooting. I didnât get a good nightâs sleep last night, I need to go back and catch up on some zâs.â
With that, Helena got up and left, completely disregarding the director.
Carlos was getting increasingly dissatisfied with Helenaâs behavior, so he said, âHelena, you want to use a standâin for all your scenes, yet you still want the pay of the second lead. Do you really think there is such a good thing in the world?â
