So, now hearing Selena Kensington actively bring up the matter of the new script, Asa Carter is delighted.
Asa Carter suppressed the joy in his heart and asked calmly, "What kind of story does Director Kensington’s new script want to present?"
Even though Asa Carter is eager to collaborate with Selena Kensington, he is also worried that some of their ideas and concepts might not align.
And the probing question Selena Kensington just asked him also stems from this concern.
Fortunately, as of now, the two seem to be quite in sync.
Then what remains is the matter of what kind of story the new script will present. And whether this story can pique both their interests.
"Beauty Painting."
Selena Kensington casually shared her thoughts.
Asa Carter looked over with a puzzled gaze.
Selena Kensington smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, "There’s a city named Bellara. In the city, there’s a Beauty Painting, where the city’s beauties are ranked. They cannot know the outside world and must use various means to compete and become the top-ranked beauty to leave Bellara."
"...And then?"
Asa Carter couldn’t help but ask further.
Even Sloane Hawthorne beside them was intrigued, his gaze fixed tightly on Selena Kensington.
Selena Kensington chuckled softly with an enigmatic expression, "This is just my initial idea. If Director Carter is interested, I think we can collaborate and explore. With my vision and overall perspective, combined with Director Carter’s subtle handling, I believe this show’s results won’t disappoint you."
Selena Kensington was clearly inviting Asa Carter to collaborate.
When she first conceived this idea, she planned to bring out Stardust Entertainment’s current main stars, and then blend them into one show.
And thus, she came up with the concept of Beauty Painting.
Felicity Dalton’s sophistication, Sloane Hawthorne’s husky voice and maturity beyond his years, Annelise Mayfield’s lively charm, Vivian Sutton’s elegant straightforwardness...
Their four personalities are each different, or rather, each have their own characteristics.
Therefore, if they are blended into one show and all become protagonists, it would surprise the outside world.
When Selena Kensington first revealed her concept, Asa Carter was already interested.
He gently rubbed his fingers and said, "From what Director Kensington means, it seems like he wants to add elements of suspense to the new show."
In order to vie for the top position in the Beauty Painting, the beauties in the city naturally use all sorts of tactics, even taking down competitors...
These add elements of suspense to the new script.
Selena Kensington smiled naturally, "Isn’t this Director Carter’s expertise?"
Besides being adept at subtle handling, Asa Carter is also perfect at managing suspense genres.
Upon hearing Selena Kensington’s words, Asa Carter’s hesitation completely vanished from his heart.
He extended his hand, "Pleasure to collaborate, Director Kensington."
Selena Kensington reached out her hand too and softly said, "Pleasure to collaborate."
Thus, the two quickly finalized the collaboration.
However, since Selena Kensington is currently pregnant, there naturally couldn’t be any major movements.
So, the two delayed the announcement and start of filming until after Selena Kensington gives birth, which is in the latter half of the year.
And the approval and project establishment matters were entrusted to Asa Carter.
Of course, the main investor of this new script remains Stardust Entertainment.
Due to Selena Kensington’s position, Asa Carter was not worried about the investors causing trouble, and thus agreed readily.
Next to them, Sloane Hawthorne watched Selena Kensington and Asa Carter talking harmoniously, seemingly deciding on a new script, and obediently listened from the side without interruption.
When Selena Kensington and Asa Carter finished, they turned to find Sloane Hawthorne attentively listening like a good student.
She smiled, "Interested?"
Although the new script’s protagonists were largely decided, Selena Kensington still wanted to ask for the personal opinions.
She wasn’t worried about scheduling conflicts, after all, her brother is Stardust’s big boss—how could there not be room for her schedule?
Regarding pulling strings and leveraging background, Selena Kensington did it with peace of mind.
Since these are indeed what she possesses, why shouldn’t she utilize them?
Selena Kensington’s concern was whether there was interest in the new script.
Felicity Dalton had already agreed with her, leaving only three people.
Sloane Hawthorne’s eyes lit up at Selena Kensington’s words. He nodded, "Interested." After saying these three words, he paused, "This collaboration with Director Carter felt like experiencing another person’s life—innovative and thrilling. So, I’d quite like to explore more new roles."
Selena Kensington curved her lips and said, "As you wish."
After chatting for a while, "Desire Gorge" began screening.
After watching, Selena Kensington once again sighed that choosing to collaborate with Asa Carter was the right decision.
Asa Carter’s handling of certain aspects and creating suspense for the audience truly left her amazed.
After the viewing ended, it was quite late.
Asa Carter had originally arranged for a dinner with the production crew after the movie ended but, due to Selena Kensington’s condition, she didn’t join them.
She returned to the Norwood Family with Sterling Norwood.
On the way.
Selena Kensington sat in the passenger seat and adjusted her seatbelt.
"Does Cousin also know about your matters?"
Selena Kensington was referring to Sterling Norwood being a descendant of the Fell Bloodline.
Sterling Norwood nodded slightly, "The Empire and Norwood Family have rules. Each term’s Empire leader and Celestial Division leader are personnel liaising between The Empire and descendants of the Fell Bloodline or the Clan of Celestial Masters."
"The rise and fall of The Empire are inseparable from the influence of the Dragon Vein suppressed by the Norwood Family, so they wouldn’t do anything to us. Instead, sometimes, we even need to collaborate." frёeωebɳovel.com
Thus, Sterling Norwood would communicate with Silas Sinclair regarding such matters.
Due to the special nature of the Fell Bloodline descendants, The Empire cannot overtly take action. Hence, they can only give Norwood Family immense privileges to take direct action.
This is why Norwood Family could openly set up a large training camp behind Mount Serpentis to train their Hidden Guard.
In this world, light and dark go hand in hand.
With light, darkness follows like a shadow.
Therefore, to maintain the existence of light, The Empire has to rely on Norwood Family to sustain the current peace behind the scenes.
Norwood Family, equivalent to The Empire’s hidden executors in the dark.
Therefore, even with the change of dynasties, Norwood Family has always existed, steadfast and unyielding.
Selena Kensington nodded and asked no further questions.
She glanced at the scenery outside, frowning slightly.
This didn’t seem to be the road back to Norwood Family.
Selena Kensington remembered there were two crossroads on the way back to Norwood Family, one road leading to Mount Serpentis where Norwood Family is located.
