Chapter 58

"Who is it? Who is the bastard trying to disrupt our shooting schedule?"

Kazir sat down after today's shooting was over. Reese Witherspoon sat next to him, reading the script to make sure she wouldn't make any mistakes tomorrow.

Her character (Jade) in the movie was an escort who had a baby. The real reason why she got the role was simple, she was beautiful, sexy and her smile was charming... She also had a relationship with Kazir.

"I think it's going to be okay. You just need to calm down."

Reese smiled and placed the script on the table. Then she held Kazir's hand to ease his frustration.

"We're two days behind schedule because of the Children's Association. They are demanding something outrageous! Why are they asking for vegetable dishes when the baby can't even eat them? It's insane!"

Kazir grumbled. They didn't agree to any of their outrageous requests that had nothing to do with the baby. But it still annoyed him because they were making a scene. They tried to slow down the shooting.

Fortunately, there was only one last scene with the baby tomorrow. Once everything was over, Kazir could pick up the pace.

"Relax. A director like you should be calm."

"I am calm."

"I know, but you have to be calmer."

Reese Witherspoon was actually amused by Kazir's reaction. She thought the man was a calm person, always calculating everything. But when it came to making his movie, Kazir was always serious and nervous.

'I can't believe he acts like that when we're alone... It's kinda cute.'

She giggled. At least she realized that Kazir was not a perfect person.

He is mature and childish at the same time.

"How about this," Reese leaned closer and kissed his neck. "Let's go to a casino and relax. Then we can go back to your room and have some fun."

Kazir looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and kissed her forehead.

"Fine... But I have never gambled in my life."

"There is a first time for everyone. Besides, we will have fun. But I remind you never to get addicted to this kind of thing, gambling is bad."

"I understand."

"Now... How about a quickie?"

There was no eternal enemy. Everyone was willing to cooperate as long as there were benefits. Kazir understood this very well.

[Okay.]

These companies were smart. They would never do anything out of line.

He understood it very well.

Even Warner Bros and 20th Century Fox would sabotage him if they didn't work with him.

20th Century Fox was hoping that Kazir would direct Napoleon Dynamite II. So they would never join to cause trouble.

'As for Warner Bros, the answer was obvious. They would never sabotage their own project. 35 million dollars is too big to fuck around with. '

Just as Salvatore promised, the film companies stopped interfering with his movie after Salvatore said that Kazir was trying to sell a script.

The title of the script had an experimental name: Teddy Bear.

Salvatore gave them 2/3 part of the script and Paramount and Miramax contacted him. They were interested in the movie and wanted Kazir to direct it. However, they were still not willing to put up any money to buy the project.

Like 20th Century Fox, the other companies were waiting to see the results of The Hangover.

If the movie was successful... Then there would be another competition to buy his script.

Se7en and Napoleon Dynamite were huge successes, so they were confident in Kazir's creativity at the least.

'It was as simple as that. I don't want to antagonize any movie company. It's not the best thing to do in this exclusive industry.'

The shooting that day was very simple, and the Children's Association kept their mouths shut. As if they were normal people who hadn't caused any trouble in the past few days.

The scenes with the baby ended after seven days and Kazir sighed with relief. At least they finished the scenes within the planned schedule.

'All because the Children's Association didn't make a fuss.'

Since then, the movie had begun to pick up speed. Their plan for the next week was to shoot all the scenes with Mike Tyson and the tiger.

'That's right. The tiger we're hiring is Mike Tyson's tiger.'

Mike had just gotten out of prison, and Kazir was actually afraid to meet the legendary boxer. Maybe because he knew how dangerous the young Mike Tyson was.
