Olivia Jenkins had a stern look on her face as she asked in a cold voice,
“How did you get these recordings?”
Benjamin Johnson took a sip of his drink before speaking slowly, “Yesterday, I arrived before you guys, and I rented a boat to sail across the lake. At that time, I was dressed casually and didn’t shave my beard. They might have mistaken me for the boatman, so they got on the boat. When I heard their conversation, I didn’t kick them out, and they gave me two hundred in cash.”
The frown on Olivia’s face remained, but her eyes lit up with a fierce flame, “So it was the ‘Wind Like Love Song’ producers who were up to no good. Shameless!”
“I did some research, ‘Wind Like Love Song’ just started filming three days ago. If David Jefferson can’t clear his name after this incident and even gets banned because of it, the production team can sue him for compensation and terminate the contract.
If the compensation is adequate, the production team won’t be at a loss. In fact, they’ll gain sympathy and act as a form of advertisement, attracting public attention.”
“There must be something fishy going on. Such a risky move by the production team must have some substantial benefits behind it, or perhaps there are some unknown matters.”
“If you probe into this production team and the producers, there’s bound to be some rewards.”
Before, Benjamin Johnson was full of defiance. But now, he seemed a little different.
Still, Olivia held her reservations.
However, she sincerely hoped that Benjamin could let go of his past grudges and obsessions.
Upon returning to her room, Olivia immediately called Amanda.
“Amanda, can you remember anything significant occurring between you and the ‘Wind Like Love Song’ production team?”
Amanda considered for a moment before answering, “Something unpleasant did happen when we were discussing the collaboration. The producers of ‘Wind Like Love Song’ thought David Jefferson’s asking price was too high.
The price we asked for was reasonable. Given David Jefferson’s popularity, it couldn’t possibly be much less than the talentless lead actress. We didn’t back down and were prepared to work on another drama instead. Eventually, the production team approached us for negotiation and we signed the contract.”
“Afterward, did the production team mention anything else? Were there any other issues?”
“When we were determining the stylistic design, I thought David Jefferson’s design looked a bit vulgar. I was furious and had a heated argument with the director. At that point, it almost led to the cancellation of the contract. Only after the producer apologized to us did we continue with the filming. Then suddenly the day before yesterday, they announced a suspension in filming.
