Chapter 147 (Part One)
When Eric entered the gate, the reporters tried to follow him, but they were stopped by a group of security guards. The security guards pushed them out of the gate and then closed the door.
All the noise and commotion outside the door had been blocked, but when they thought of the sensational scene just now, they were still scared. They thought there were so many people, so crazy a group of people, who were even willing to die for the news. If one of them broke in, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Eric ignored the amazed looks of the crowd and walked towards the director and Melissa. The Woody and other people who was standing behind him also looked nervous. Woody solemnly told some matters with Eric's assistant, which was obviously a tough task for him. He spoke while walking. Finally, he followed Eric and walked towards director Li. Before Eric could reach director Li's side, Woody come up and said to director Li, "Director, can we hold a press conference first?"
However, director Li was in shock with saying, "Ah!".
Woody jumped to his feet and said, "Hey, it's just a press conference. Don't you see that the reporters outside are in a mess? How can they act in this way?" Woody looked like a girl, but everyone was used to his behaviors and didn't say anything.
But director Li didn't look good. When he invited Eric in the first place, he thought he had been lucky. But he didn't expect that so many things would happen within just two days, which could possibly hinder the progress of his filming. He had to know a large crew to delay the schedule of shooting and a lot of money would be spent. However, such a serious matter was not within his control, so he didn't contradict him. He only thought quietly, thinking about how to make the best choice.
But right at this moment, Eric took off his sunglasses and said, "No need for that. It will take a long time for you to hold a press conference. Besides, it's a mess outside and I'm afraid it's not easy for you to hold it. Just wait for the company's arrangement!"Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Woody was furious and shouted, "What?" Don't you know how powerful the media is? If you delay for a little longer, they will make up countless versions to speculate about you. Now, everyone is saying that you have been secretly married to Melissa and you may have a baby with her in a few hours. Don't you know how much these rumors have hurt your image? "It will cost millions even if you lose your reputation. In the future, who dares to hire you for a movie?"
At that moment, Zack just came over. He was very happy to hear such an interesting thing. He patted Woody on the shoulder and said, "Dear agent, you're always not a wise man. How can you be afraid of those journalists? If they want to tell something, just let them tell it. It's not true. Later you can clarify it!" You are so capable but you can't even handle this crisis for public relations? "Then you are sorry for being called a top agent in the entertainment circle!"
Woody's face turned red and scolded Zack, "Don't try to fight with me. I won't buy it!" If you make the news popular for your artists' benefit, of course you will be happy! "But our Eric is different. She almost killed us all!" Woody pointed at Melissa and yelled at Zack, "Take care of your actor and don't try to use any dirty means to get what you want!" I, Woody, am not that easy to deal with. The image of Eric is more important than my life now. Do you know what the top managers have said this morning?"
"What did they say?" Zack was so pissed off at Woody's words that he asked him deliberately when he knew that he was mad. In fact, Zack had long disliked Woody. That Woody could be so arrogant just because he trained Eric under his training. He really thought he was great and looked down upon his peers!
"Why should I tell you?" Woody then yelled at Zack. It seemed that he was so angry that he even blushed.
Eric was fed up with the argument and frowned with saying, "Enough!" It was in the workplace. What are you arguing? Woody, just wait for the company's plan. Everything will be done soon. Don't worry. "It's no use arguing here now. The press conference is to be held. And anxiety is of no use."
"I'm not in a hurry? Who is in a hurry? Should I wait until it's in chaos?" "Eric, you are such a stubborn man. You would not even make any trouble if I didn't backed you up. Don't talk you are a superstar, but do you know more about this entertainment circle than I do?" Woody shouted back at Eric.
Eric didn't know how to respond. He didn't want to argue with him anymore. After all, he had been fed up with visiting the company this morning. To appease his anger, he reached out his hand and said, "Okay. Since you are so anxious, why don't you go and tell the reporters what happened? I won't show up until the company has planned it. Don't bother me with other things."
Woody was pissed off again. He pointed at Eric and scolded him. But Eric ignored him and said to the director, "Director, let's continue filming. This matter won't affect the progress of the whole crew and I can guarantee that it will also bring you strong audience rating!"
Director Li smiled awkwardly and said, "That is true……" "That's because you, You, Eric, are there!" But the director still wanted to calm this thing down as soon as possible. He didn't want to bear being broken doors by reporters every day, and if so, it would not affect the progress of the filming. He couldn't afford to stop filming and hold a press conference like what Woody had said.
Woody scolded him for a while. Seeing that Eric ignored him, he got angry and walked out to face the reporters. Eric didn't want to talk to him either. He did whatever he liked. He didn't care even if he was drowned in the reporters' saliva. He followed the stylist into the room to put on makeup. Before he left, he nodded at Melissa and said, "Don't worry."
