Chapter 508: SCRIPT READING (I)

ASTRID and Ellis walked inside the building of Streamline Film. It's the production company that would produce [Serendipitous Summer]. They mainly produced movies that were based on novels or comics. In short, it's a production company known for their love action films.

They couldn't be said to be on par with the huge production companies that were considered true giants in the industry, but they had a good reputation and track record. Film they produced seldom flopped to the point that it couldn't even reach the breakeven point. Although it's also true that their films didn't usually become super box office hit.

In simpler term, the result of their movies was always neither super bad nor super good. They could be said to be super above average.

But that wasn't really what's important to Astrid. It's more important to him that the production company was clean. And when he meant 'clean', he meant no corruption and no hocus pocus happening behind the scene. Thankfully, Streamline Film fit the bill.

With a good production crew, he could focus more on filming. Which would then result in a much better performance. Not to mention a good environment for everyone to film.

Of course, unexpected incidents could still occur. But at least, the very basic was ensured. This was his first leading role and movie, after all. He wanted to make sure that things would proceed as smoothly as possible.

When they entered the building, an AI robot led them to a conference room where the script reading would happen. As soon as they walked inside, Astrid was surprised to see that there was already someone there.

One should know that he and Ellis left his apartment building very early. Even if he's one of the leading role in this movie, he's still a rookie, so it's only right to arrive first. Besides, because of the [Star List], there might be some who would openly show their dissatisfaction to him. So, he should not show anything that could easily be picked on by the others.

But obviously, someone had arrived here faster than him. And it's even someone he knew very well.

It was none other than Snow.

Snow also saw him. His cold expression quickly cracked and a small smile appeared on his face. Astrid wanted to quickly go to the other, but he refrained from doing so. There were already production staffs there. So, he should greet them first.

He first gave a small wave to Snow. Then he walked around the room, greeting all the staffs with a smile. Telling them 'good morning' and 'good work today'. The staffs seemed to be very surprised by this, seeing as how they didn't immediately respond to him. Astrid didn't mind and just continued to where Snow was seating.

Ellis, who was following behind Astrid, was also quite surprised seeing the other greeting the staffs. This was not something they talked about before going here. It might just come off naturally for him. Or, it was a calculated action to gain the goodwill of the staffs. Either way, it was a good move.

What Ellis didn't know was Astrid just did it out of habit. He was used to greeting the staffs in his past life. Since he started at the very bottom of the industry, with no advantages, whatsoever, showing a good attitude to everyone he worked with regardless of their job description. That's how he survived the grueling world of the entertainment industry.

Of course, that didn't mean that he was just a kind pushover who would just let everything slide for the sake of 'world peace'. If he had to fight back, he would. And if his 'enemy' was someone he couldn't easily touch, he would find a roundabout way to do that.

That habit had continued on in this life.

Well, being polite was just basic human decency. Aside from that, even if he had experienced some annoying things after he officially started his career as an actor in this era, they were situations that were resolved rather quickly. Mostly with the help of his number one fan.

He didn't mind that, though. For him, it's not a blow to his pride or a sign that he couldn't fight his own battles. He had fought enough battles in his past life, from childhood to adulthood, until he reached a point where he could confidently say that he succeeded in life. Only for everything to be ruined by those damn grapes.

But at least he was reincarnated in this life in a loving family. His parents and brother gave the love he hadn't experienced in his past life in a thousandth fold.

That's why he didn't mind Wulfric taking care of those things for him. For one, it saved him the trouble of doing it himself, and two, he liked the feeling of being taken care of.

Thankfully enough, Wulfric didn't go too far in his methods. Maybe because the other knew, deep down, that he wouldn't appreciate it.

When his thoughts veered towards Wulfric, he couldn't help but sigh. It had already been three weeks since the other left the capital. And although they had been in constant contact, there were moments when he truly missed the other's presence beside him.

Astrid shook his head. This was hardly the time to think about that. He should focus on today's script reading instead of thinking about these things.

He finally arrived where Snow was sitting. He first greeted the other and then asked, "I didn't expect you to come so early. Have you been here for a while now?"

Snow shook his head. "No, I arrived just a few minutes before you. It's better to be early than to be late, right?"

Astrid chuckled. "True. But where's your manager?"

Snow was assigned to an agent who was currently handling five artists. In cases like that, a dedicated manager would be assigned to the artist to take care of them. Astrid didn't have to worry about such things, since he was the only artist being handled by Ellis.

But before Snow could respond, the door to the conference room suddenly opened and a young woman with a cold expression walked in.
