Chapter 253 Fueled by resentment, Henri was determined to deal with Rose and Thomas slowly.
As for Mr. Witt, he was just a director of a commercial film, but he had won the grand prize! What right did he have to talk to her like this? In a rage, Henri picked up the phone and called all the people in the film circle he knew.

Mr. Witt's film can not proceed.
In fact, this script was quite good. He had thought highly of it in private. Otherwise, he would not have taken the initiative to accept this film.
But since Rose and Mr. Witt were so insensible, this movie could not be continued.
As Henri laughed, he winced from the pain in his bruised face.
Thinking of last night's humiliation, a trace of hatred flashed across his eyes.
While Rose and Mr. Witt were indeed infuriating, the one he despised the most was Thomas, How dare a mere stagehand treat him like that.
Last night, he was tied up all over. If he hadn't tried his best to get the phone and find someone to save him, he would have frozen to death in the room yesterday.
Thinking of the feeling of humiliation, Henri gnashed his teeth.
He would definitely make Thomas pay the price.

Next, he had to take good care of his nose. When it recovered, he could cout to work again.

In the beginning, Mr. Witt had been looking for all kinds of movie stars.
However, these people all tactfully refused him.
take Mr. Witt had no choice but to take a step back and find smale actors who had not won the award but were still quite capable.
But these people also refused him one after another.
When he was rejected again, Mr. Witt couldn't help asking why.
The man had cooperated with Mr. Witt before. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, “Mr. Witt, did your cooperation with the best actor Henri end unpleasantly?” Mr. Witt was stunned for a moment and then cto his senses. “It's him?” “Henri has been spreading the news everywhere that the female lead of this movie is a newcomer with poor acting skills. This movie must be a bad one. The actors with ambition naturally won't accept this movie.” “It's true that the female lead is a newcomer, but she’s very smart, and her acting skills are not bad at all,” Mr. Witt said angrily.
“Don’t you know what kind of person | am? Can | use a newcomer who doesn’t know anything?” The actor said, “Well, yes, you can.” Mr. Witt was speechless.
It seemed he did have a history of questionable casting choices.
3/6 OyeTalk INSTALL Chapter 253 After all, in commercial films, box office success, and acting skills don’t always correlate.
Sometimes, for the sake of attracting more investment, he had indeed cast actors pushed by investors.
But Love In Bitter Winter was different from his previous commercial films.
It was a project he had poured years of effort into, and he would never mess it up.
He knew this, but others didn't believe it.
Mr. Witt felt a surge of frustration. Had he known it would cto this, he wouldn't have made those compromises for financial gain in the past.
Clearing his throat, Mr. Witt said, “That was the past. I've changed now. | promise you, this film is not a flop.” The actor replied, “Mr. Witt, | personally believe you and would like to take the role.” “Then take it,” Mr. Witt said excitedly.
“But with Henri's backing company also involved, they've said that anyone who takes this role won't get to work with their artists in the future.” the actor sighed. “Mr. Witt, I'd like to help you, but | also need to make a living.” Mr. Witt understood and replied somberly, “I get it, | won't make it hard for you.” The actor breathed a sigh of relief. “Mr. Witt, it's good that you can understand.” Mr. Witt hung up the phone expressionlessly.

But how n many newbies in the world could amaze him with a single glance like Rose? If there was no other way, he might really have to give up.
