When Marina said that, the bald director looked a little displeased.
His face darkened as he stared at Marina and said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, "You'd better think this through. You know what the domestic film and television industry is like right now. I don't need to tell you how hard it is to get acting opportunities. If you miss this chance, you'll regret it!"
Marina wanted nothing more than to pick up the coffee cup in front of her and splash its contents all over the bald man's face, but reason told her she couldn't do that...
She still had to make a living in this circle. If she truly offended major figures like directors and producers, she would never have a chance to rise again.
Just as she was considering how to politely decline the evening's invitation without offending the bald director, her phone rang.
She glanced at the screen and saw that it was her agent.
Her agent should have accompanied Marina to meet the bald director, but before they left, the agent had called to say something urgent had come up and told Marina to go alone.
Now that she was suddenly calling, Marina had no idea what it was about.
After answering, Marina had barely greeted her with, "Alyo...," before she could ask what was going on, her agent's excited voice cut her off.
"Marina! This is huge! You're going to make it big!"
Her agent's excitement left Marina bewildered. She asked blankly, "What huge news? How come I don't know anything about it?"
"You know about NTV Television Station's mega-series with an investment of five hundred million US dollars, right?" her agent asked.
Of course she knew. As someone in the entertainment industry, who hadn't heard about that series lately...
