Stunned and flattered, Rachel nodded at him with a smile, saying, "I didn't expect you to be the director
of the movie? Last time, I won an award because of 'Life in the Republic of China'. Thank you for your
guidance."
With a rattled wave of his hand, Bob said, "You worked so hard that you deserve it! I did nothing. You
don't have to thank me. You can show your gratitude to Mr. Clark!"
Rachel turned to Clark, but the latter didn't even look up at her. It seemed that he was waiting for her to
speak first.
"Thank you," Rachel said in an different tone.
When everyone was seated, Rachel was surprised to see Michelle Li was also here. She was just a
supporting actress of the movie.
However, as soon as Michelle saw Rachel looking at her, she immediately nodded and warmly greeted
her.
They were not sitting next to each other, so Rachel couldn't get close to her. Therefore, Rachel could
only smile to her.
The producer of the investment company raised his glass and propose a toast to Clark first. "Thank Mr.
Clark for his cooperation. He has invested 300 million dollars this time!"
When the words came out, everyone was shocked!
Most actresses, however, were looking at him feverishly and trying their best to suppress their desire.
Rachel was a little surprised as well. Clark said he wouldn't invest in the movie. But now, it turned out
that he had invested in it and she just knew before the shooting day.
Clark then raised his glass, slightly clinked it against the producer's and drank it up!
"Wow! Mr. Clark is not only handsome, but also so charming when he drinks. No wonder he is the
superior CEO!"
"If I had such a powerful husband, I would die without regret!"
Several female stars dressed enchantingly were whispering to each other in private. Even though they
spoke in a very low voice, Rachel still heard them with keen sense.
As a matter of fact, a gorgeous man like Clark was hard to get. Every woman would be attracted by his
conditions. Even though he was cold and distant with a stiff face, it was undeniable that he was a
fascinating man and could hardly be forgotten.
Turning to his good-looking side face, Rachel's heart was thumping wildly.
After a while, Bob started to introduce everyone present.
"This is the heroine of the play, Rachel Yan!"
"Well, this is the leading man, Liam Zheng!"
"Supporting actress, Olivia Lin."
"Supporting actor, James He!"
After introducing the actors and actresses to each other, Bob let them move freely.
Liam Zheng raised his glass and said to her, "Miss Rachel, I hope we will have a good cooperation!"
With politeness, Rachel responded, "Wish us a pleasant cooperation!"
"Miss Rachel is so young. I heard that you filmed an international movie half a year ago, right?" Liam
asked, trying to talk to Rachel.
With a nod, Rachel said, "Yes, this movie has been released abroad, and the comments are not bad."
"It seems that you have already booked the award for next year," Liam flattered.
Rachel shook her head and laughed, saying, "I am flattered. But it's hard for us to obtain an
international award. I don't think I can."
Liam agreed with her and said, "You're right. The entertainment circle is full of competition."
When Bob saw that leading actor and leading actress seemed to get along well, he was relieved.
In one movie, if the hero and heroine didn't get along well and didn't act with each other tacitly, the
movie would be over.
Bob was quite satisfied with the result, but the face of Clark, who was sitting beside him, darkened.
Bob seemed to sense the sign of the cold air around him. Subconsciously, he glanced at Clark and
understood everything immediately.
He hurriedly interrupted Liam's and lyndsy's chat and said, "You two will cooperate in the movie as the
heroine and the hero. When you are free, you should discuss the script and improve your
understanding of the character..."
Upon hearing this, Liam gave an apologetic smile to Rachel and said, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said
those nonsense. But what do you think about the script of 'Light of Peace?'"
After thinking for a while, Rachel replied, "The core of the script mainly tells that in a turbulent war time,
the hero and the heroine represent different groups and go all out in the pursuit of peace. The hero's
life focus is to participate in the civil war, so his will to defeat all difficulties should be especially firm..."
Liam was deeply touched by Rachel's thoughts and understanding about "Light of Peace".
In addition to him, everyone present which was supposed to be noisy gradually calmed down and went
back to their seats to listen to Rachel introducing the script.
Under everyone's gaze and under the encouragement of Bob, Rachel boldly spoke out some doubts
and ideas about the script, which were very detailed and practical, deepened everyone's understanding
of the script.
Even Clark turned his head to look at her calmly.
Her face lit up, and her understanding of the script astonished Bob and embarrassed all the actors and
actresses present.
Rachel was so familiar with this script. No wonder she could take the leading actress role in so many
movies even though she was a new actress.
However, one of the actresses looked at Rachel with intense hatred. She was Emma Li.
Emma Li and Nancy had a good relationship and they often contacted each other on Weibo.
Nancy had always spoken ill of Rachel in front of her. As time went by, she regarded Rachel as a
affected and hypocritical woman.
Now, she was not reconciled to see that Rachel stole the limelight from the whole table.
"Miss Rachel must have done a lot of research and preparations in private, right? That's why you are
so insightful. It's eye opening for all of us here." Emma's provocative remark made everyone look at
her.
Her face was half smiling and indifferent.
Everyone in the entertainment circle was smart. Hearing her words, they could more or less guess that
she didn't like Rachel.
Knowing what she really meant, Rachel smiled calmly and said, "Miss Emma, what's your opinion?
Since you are here, you must have prepared yourself before coming here, right?"
Emma Li was stunned. She just wanted to embarrass Rachel. She didn't expect the latter to ask her
opinions?
She was embarrassed, but she didn't want to be defeated in such a situation!
Thus, she cleared her throat and said, "The theme of 'Light of Peace' is peace, so you have to
understand why a person so eager for peace, and what is the reason and motive, so that they can
perform well."
Michelle Li couldn't help bursting into laughter.
"Emma, what you said is also nonsense. Who doesn't understand that? Do we need you to teach us?"
Michelle said sarcastically.
Bob took a cold glance at Emma Li, stating, "It seems that you are the one who need to prepare
yourself for your character!"
Emma Li was stunned. She felt she was right. Why was everyone looking at her like this?
In fact, she didn't listen to Rachel's speech carefully just now, so she had no idea what she was talking
about had already been mentioned by Rachel and Rachel had given a very good advice.
Emma was embarrassed in front of everyone and became more resentful of Rachel.
Although this episode had passed, Emma was a grudge holder. In her heart, she would not let go of
what happened between her and her Rachel!
Clark took a cold glance at Emma, making her shiver!
With a disapproving look, Bob thought, 'This female star is too clumsy! The reason Rachel is the
leading actress must be that she is good at acting.
Emma can be acting in the movie is because she has a rich father. But she seems to have low EQ and
IQ.'
Bob began to worry about the following shooting.
