Capítulo 158: MHS - Chapter 156

"No, I am telling you. We won't be able to grow if we keep investing in small-time projects like this. We have to take a bigger step and make a whole movie instead of just continuously investing in small time short films."

Jimmy said, trying to make his point.

Jaidyn shook his head as he said.

"Jimmy, you're a genius through and through, and I really appreciate your talent. But you don't understand the business world well enough yet. It's all about profits, be it big or small. Only a privileged man can take high risks for high rewards, but Jixar isn't that big yet. We need to go one step at a time to slowly rake in the profits while slowly expanding ourselves. If we go according to your plan, the company will shut down in no time."

He tried to make him understand. Jaidyn wasn't a bad guy, but he wasn't good enough to take loss slaps on his face without retorting. To him, Jimmy was a bright kid, intelligent and talented in his own field, but he had yet to learn much about business.

"No, you must try to understand. I don't want to be a small-time entrepreneur my whole life. And it's not possible to become successful without risks in life."

Jimmy retorted again. He wanted to become the head of one of the biggest animation studios in America but it wasn't possible with the amount of investment Jixar was making. They needed to enter the big leagues, and for that they needed big capital and investment.

'Sigh. At this rate, it's better to sell my shares to someone than to handle this headache everyday.'

Jaidyn thought. He was tired of listening to this kid's ambitious talks without him paying attention to his own circumstances.

In a famous morning show in America, called 'Morning Americans', Leo was currently sitting on the set's sofa with a man and woman accompanying him.

The man's name was Marlo and the woman's name was Camilla. They were a duo who hosted 'Morning Americans'.

Currently, they were asking a few interview questions to Leo, that they had prepared beforehand.

"Tell us, Leo. Both of us, and I am sure the whole of America is very curious as to how Will ends up picking talents like you. Where does he even find you and what process did you go through to be selected for the movie."

Camilla asked, and the cameras zoomed on Leo's face. Leo had already gotten too used to the spotlight and hence, he wasn't nervous at all.

He laughed as he said.

"Trust me you don't want to know that."

His laugh alone could gather the admirations of many. His boyish charms were playing their part in making the audience even more engaged in the show.

"Oh, then you should surely tell us. Everyone likes a good laugh."

Marlo laughed as he said that. He was a black guy but he was a native American.

"Well, Will had come for some photoshoots and when he was out for a walk, I ended up stalking him. I mean, I knew it wasn't the right way to approach someone and I didn't even realise I was stalking him. To me, I was just following my favourite idol and trying to make an impression on him. Although the stalking didn't last long as I was caught. Will told me not to do it again and then asked why I was following him.

I told him that I just unconsciously ended up following him after seeing him and that I am also an aspiring actor. I don't know what he saw in me. He brought me back to his hotel, then to Dream Vision, where he took my audition and said that although I needed a bit of work, everything else was fine. After that, fate did its part and here I am. Haha."

Marlo and Camilla both had dumbstruck expressions on their faces. Marlo stared at Leo, then at the camera, and he did a few times before both Marlo and Camilla couldn't control their laughter. They laughed out loud and the audience followed.

"Like. Bro, what the heck?! Is this really how Will finds talented superstars? A stalker? Seriously? Hahaha. I can't!"

Leo chuckled seeing their reactions. After all, it was just as absurd to him as it was to them.

After they had calmed down, Marlo looked at the camera as he said.

"So ladies and gentlemen, now you know how to get selected in Will's movies. You just need to stalk him until he notices you. On a serious note, don't try that, it's a criminal offense. You would find yourself in prison before even getting a chance to audition. DTA hirings are always notified on the website, and Natalie Bergmann was hired from there too. So go with the traditional way. This whole ordeal of stalking is Leo's special. Don't try it in real life."

Everyone again let out a chuckle after that.

"What about your experience of working with Will? How was everyone at the set during the time of the shooting?"

Marlo asked and Leo happily replied.

"As it was my first ever movie, and that too as a lead role. I have to say I was very excited. Rather, I was too excited that I almost ruined some of the scenes. Will has that mentoring charm to him and believe it or not, Will is the best actor I've seen till now, even if counting all the movies I have seen. Everybody respects him on the set and nobody dares to ruin a scene, unless they want to see Will's 'director side'.

Also, Robert is very nice. He taught me every time I failed at something and he was very patient with me. He treated me like a younger brother and we even went out to eat ice-creams together. All in all, the shooting was very fun and memorable and it taught me many things that I had yet to learn about life."

Leo reminisced about the past and how happy he was, a genuine nostalgic expression forming on his face, enhancing his charms by two-folds, which the cameraman didn't forget to capture.

"That sounds really nice. Well, it's as expected of Will, of course his team and ways are different than the norms. Can you tell us anything about [GTA: Vice City]? Do you have any part in the game? And what about your next projects? Have you signed any other movies yet?"

Camilla asked as Leo shook his head.

"I haven't been informed of any such thing yet. And the story in [GTA: Vice City] is about the young Tommy Vercetti, so it would be weird if Mario, who was a kid at that time, would have any significant role. As for your other question, no. I still haven't taken up any roles on future projects for now."

"Ah well, thank you for coming to our show and maintaining such a good chat with us. I am sure you've successfully charmed the hearts of many girls in the audience."

Marlo said as Camilla followed after him and they ended the show together.

Exhausted, Leo finally came backstage, where his agent, Anderson Palmer, was waiting for him.

"Are you alright?"

Anderson asked and Leo nodded his head.

"Are there any more shows and interviews to attend?"

Leo asked, clearly tired.

"Apparently, yes. There are two more shows. And one of them is Tuffin's show, so there's no way you can miss out on it."

Anderson declared. He was a new employee and was only 23-years-old, almost the same age as Will. He was a fan of Will and was from the same film school Will came from. After joining DTA, he eventually worked his way into becoming the agent of the rookie star, Leo.

"Okay okay. I really wanna end this all and get back to preparing for new movies. Sigh. Is there any news about what roles I am going to get next?"

Leo asked, a bit of hope reflecting in his eyes. Anderson didn't wait any longer and replied.

"Yep, I just got a call from Jennifer. She said that Will has prepared a few movies for you to sign already."

After the ordeal with Marvel comics, Will left details and everything else to Amanda, after all, Marvel was going to be integrated with Dream Vision.

Will was currently in his office, typing down his plans for the future on his laptop. He wanted to expand Dream Vision since his goal was to become one of the big 6 and eventually even surpass them at some point, so an expansion was necessary.

On the laptop, he was noting down points like getting his own distribution channel, which was very important since his Dream Vision Studio was well established in the market, and he can't always depend on others for distribution.

The second thing was to acquire an animation studio, and merge it with the VFX department that he would obtain from Mega works. Thirdly, and lastly one of the most pressing matters right now. He had to set his foot in the series industry and get established there.

It was too big of a market to lose out on, not to mention that later on, there can be a lot of series on Netflix that can dominate the entire entertainment industry.

Will was already a big earner in the movie market and every movie by Dream Vision was marketed well and had the brand named 'Will Evans' behind them, which made them a hit at the box office.

But the series market was very different and the only way for Will to enter it as a big player was through Netflix.

Thinking about this, Will decided to make his next big move.
