A mont that deserved celebration. Two awards were won by La La Land, Best Director Award and Best Actress Award. These two awards were both important honors in the industry.
Gaining this recognition would give Brianna and Fremont a massive boost to their careers. Their salaries would undoubtedly increase.
These awards might look simple, but the importance they carried in the industry couldn't be asured by money.
Winning an award at the Academy Awards ant that your na would be forever rembered in history. Whenever people thought about the best actresses or the best directors, Brianna and Fremont would beco part of the conversation.
One thing was clear, there would be a party for the cast and crew mbers of La La Land tonight. Champagne would pop... and probably so drugs as well.
The last segnt of the show was the Best Picture Award. The movie that won Best Picture was Million Dollar Baby.
With that, the show ended, and the credits rolled.
"They're going to have a party tonight," Kazir thought.
"They sure are."
"Well, they won two important awards, so they're going to celebrate. I'm sure Fremont and Brianna won't act cheap tonight. They'll go all out and spend a lot of money."
Having experienced this kind of celebration, Kazir had an idea of what would happen tonight... a lot of people would get drunk.
"We can also celebrate their success in our own way," Scarlett teased.
"Oh sure, we will."
"Yeah, we will."
Scarlett, who was sitting on Kazir's lap, purred and leaned closer, sniffing Kazir's neck. She tried to kiss his neck, but a phone rang and disturbed their peace.
It was Kazir's phone.
"..."
The two were silent for a second. Kazir sighed and put down the beer. He reached for his phone and answered the call.
"Salvatore? Ah, yeah, it depends. I'll answer you later," Kazir said with a bitter smile.
"What did he say?"
"He invited to go to the party."
"You're the scriptwriter, so I'm not surprised he invited you… So, what's your decision?"
"Salvatore or Brianna will probably call you later."
"You didn't answer my question," she said firmly, pressing her weight down on his lap, obviously teasing him.
"Above that..."
Scarlett giggled because she could tell Kazir was conflicted.
"I'll tell you this, if you don't make a move tonight, I'll hate you. So make sure you don't regret your decision," she said with a seductive smile.
"I think we should turn off our phones."
"Good idea."
Scarlett yelped playfully as Kazir carried her to the bedroom.
Well, let's just say that they didn't get much rest when the sunshine ca around.

Vance Goodhood. He was a stockbroker who worked for Goldman Sachs.
After working in the stock industry for years, he was confident enough to say that he knew how to be a millionaire. To be fair, he was indeed a millionaire.
In his opinion, the best way to beco a millionaire in this industry was to not be greedy. You had to understand when to pull out your investnt. The second important factor was to understand the stocks you were buying. Other than that, don't be stupid.
Vance was going to et one of his most important clients. In fact, this client had helped him further his career at Goldman Sachs.
When Grey Pictures and 20th Century Fox had their agreent, Goldman Sachs had played a part in that $3 billion worth of transactions between the two studios. Of course, Goldman Sachs made money, and so did Vance.
Because of that, Vance was noticed by upper managent, which gave him a better position.
"Kazir, these are the docunts."
Vance passed a thick stack of papers to Kazir.
Kazir yawned and rubbed his eyes. He stretched his arms, which had been hugging a soft, tiny waist earlier. He glanced at the docunts and shook his head.
He had no patience nor intention to read docunts that weren't related to movies.
"Vance, this docunt is too thick for to read. Can you tell the important contents instead?"
"Of course."
Vance wasn't surprised. Most of his clients preferred it this way. His clients were rich, and they usually handed these docunts to their financial advisors and accountants to calculate the numbers.
(Note: I have no idea what I'm writing. I'm not rich, so I don't know how they settle their finances. Heck, I don't even know how they calculate their taxes. They probably hire people.)
Vance started explaining.
"So basically, my stocks are worth more than $4.3 billion now?"
"That's correct. These past few years, you've invested in Amazon, Apple, eBay, and Google. Furthermore, you're one of the shareholders of Facebook. Facebook's valuation this year is $180 million."
In addition to that, Kazir also invested in Nvidia, Intel, and Microsoft. He had also been buying public shares of 20th Century Fox. Kazir was the second individual shareholder of 20th Century Fox, the first being Rupert Murdoch.
It was an understatent to say that Kazir was rich. He was wealthy. His descendants would have a great life for three to five generations... unless so of them screwed up and squandered everything.
"...Wow."
That was the best response Kazir could give. He hadn't expected that he would reach this point in life. He was damn wealthy.
He wasn't poor in his past life, since he had residual inco from his movies and had also inherited money from his father. But this amount, $4.3 billion, was sothing that had always been out of reach.
