Chapter 1613: It’ll Surely Be Wonderful
After they wrapped up, Director Martin looked for the scriptwriter. "Charles, please co to my room after you're done here! Bring the script!"
Charles, who was smoking at the mont, looked like he expected this and he flashed an OK sign.
…
In the hotel room, Martin was pacing back and forth. The second Charles entered, he went straight to the point. "Buddy, I want to add so scenes for Xi. What do you think?"
Charles gave Martin a high five and spoke in Mandarin to him, "Great minds think alike."
Martin shared his idea excitedly, "One action scene is too little! Xi moves really well and adds to the effect…"
Charles gave it so thought, then he interrupted, "But… Buddy, rember that if you add too many scenes, sothing's gotta give and you'll have to cut so others out!"
Movies had very strict restrictions in terms of timing; just one scene could cost a lot of money and any extra seconds were precious.
Martin was struggling because of this issue too, but he looked determined. "Charles, don't you think the marvelous nature here would pair better with Xi's strong classic Oriental vibe rather than so chilly special effects? I know that it's risky, but I believe in my judgnt!"
Charles shrugged. "Okay, if you insist but actually, I think so too! Alright, let's talk about the new scenes. How long do you want them to be?"
"Ten minutes! No… 15 minutes!" Martin exclaid in excitent.
Appearing for 15 minutes in a movie that was full of special effects added up to almost as much screen ti as the female secondary lead! Even one of the main casts, Tony, only had just above ten minutes of screen ti.
Charles then replied, "If that's the case, I suggest we add another romantic elent between her and Orlando…"
Before Charles could finish his sentence… Bang! A large-sized man charged in like a typhoon and hugged Charles. "Oh baby, I love you! You're my angel!"
Charles pushed him away helplessly. "Orlando, don't thank . I think Martin thought about it too. If not, he wouldn't have retained the scene where you made a mistake just now…"
Orlando was about to go and bear hug Martin but the man avoided him and looked gravely at him. "Orlando, I know that she's your type…"
Orlando interrupted him with a serious expression. "Oh no! My dear, she's not just my type! She's my queen!"
Martin was speechless for a few seconds before he reminded, "I have to warn you again. You know . No relationships between mbers of a film crew. Avoid any scandal! You'd better be careful!"
Orlando declared, "I swear to God! I'll only go for her after we're done filming!"
While Martin knew that Orlando was a flirt, he was relieved that Orlando still maintained that level of professionalism within him after all.
Since the director was not angry anymore, he nudged the scriptwriter who was more easygoing, grinning suggestively, "Hey, dear Charles, what do you think about adding a sex scene? It'll surely be wonderful!"
