Hollywood What If Chapter 209
"Directrey, I promise you I have no bad iions. I just want to make sure that you are rexed." Franklin Maxwell realised that Directrey didn't like his preparation as they left the private room.
Directrey didn't eveer the room. After looking at the people in the room, the Diremediately annouhat he wao talk downstairs instead. Perhaps Kazir was just curious about the agent's iions.
"I know." Kazir nodded.
'Of course, if you try to bckmail me or release footage of me having fun with five women and two men, then your future in Hollywood is already over. Besides, a lot of directors will lose faith in the WMA if they find out that one of their agents bckmailed me.'
In this situation, Franklin Maxwell and the WMA were at a disadvantage. Kazir Grey was not the person he was five years ago. His es run deeper and many people would protect him. Even CAA would look after Kazir's welfare.
Kazir's talent was already proven and many people sidered him useful. On top of that, everyone knows that Kazir would never spend his time in a room with strangers. Unless he was drugged or kidnapped.
'If you try to make things difficult, Orndo Bloom will never get a ce to audition and your career as a will be over.'
Kazir was noowerful figure in Hollywood.
The WMA usually attacked him ily and their means were not that extreme, apart from the domestic violence allegations. They would never put themselves in a difficult position.
'Maybe I'm getting used to this life that I deduce the WMA's way of thinking... Money and power are scary things.'
Now that Carl Morin and Lawlor Dean had been thrown out of the WMA, Kazir uood that the grudge was basically over.
The two reached the ground floor and Kazir sat down at ay table. Franklin Maxwell followed suit and sat across him.
"Frankli me get this straight. I'm not the type to say yes just because there's some first css pussy in front of me. The people you sent into that room will never sway me. So let me ask you, why are you doing this?"
Knowing that Kazir Grey was serious, Franklin Maxwell swallowed hard and decided to speak. This was all or nothing.
"Directrey, I hope you return to the WMA and bey t."
'As expected...' Kazir leaned against the chair. It was obvious. This was not the first time a had tried to talk to him about ging agencies. He had turned down all their offers, even though some of them had good ditions.
But today Kazir was free and he was thinking about ging agencies... Or so.
"What will I get?" Kazir asked.
"Y- Yes." Franklin Maxwell got excited when he heard the director's answer. His face blushed slightly.
He had heard that Kazir Grey had been tacted by many agencies but had never accepted their offers. He expihat he was happy with the way CAA was helping him.
Franklin pulled an envelope from his suit. It was warm from his body heat...
The agent hahe tract to Kazir a him read it. Franklin wrote only the important things that Kazir could get if he signed a tract with the WMA. Of course, this tract was not official. Most of the time tracts were as thick as books because of all the cuses and ditions.
Franklin Maxwell only included the ditions that could attract Kazir.
Reading the tract, Kazir raised his eyebrows ahe first line.
'A 2% ission? Damn, that's basically a robbery, from them. Have I reached the point where I am on a par with Steven Spielberg and James Cameron in terms of importance?'
This kind of tract was usually for top directors like them.
The tract stated that Kazir Grey had full trol over his projed could hire whoever he wanted. However, they hoped that Directrey would prioritise WMA's ts first. A very typical dition.
Other than that, nothing really caught his attention. Kazir was not a fussy person and the ditions were within his expectations.
But when he read the st cuse, he couldn't help but smile.
Every week, the WMA will send one of their female ts to his apartment to serve Kazir.
'This is crazy... I don't even know if WMA is crazy enough to do this. But it's not impossible, they send a newbie actress who has no foundation in Hollywood and leave it at that.'
If he was right, that st cuse was added by Franklin Maxwell himself.
'I'm sure no actress would object to sleeping with a famous director like me. Especially if the actress is new in the business and o make es. '
Talent Agents... They were known for their thick faces and shameless behaviour. They would do anything to get a better deal. This time Franklin Maxwell used a dirty tribsp;
Kazir could only shake his head and ugh.
"Franklin, this tract roved by the WMA, right?"
"Of course, although I added a few ditions to make it better. Don't worry, I think the WMA will do anything to get you signed."
"Indeed."
This tract was indeed good. Unfortunately, Kazir was no fool.
If he signed a tract with WMA, then all the crew members and employees of Grey Pictures would be affected. Most of them were CAA ts. There was a ce that most of them would resign. Kazir didn't want to risk that.
"... Let me think about it. By the way, tell Orndo Bloom to get ready for his audition. The final round of auditions for the lead role will take p 12 days".
Kazir wao py a little with WMA and CAA. Although he already had an idea of the oute.
"Yes, director!"
Franklin Maxwell was delighted when he realized that Kazir was not against it. At least he had a ce to sign Directrey. If WMA heard that Kazir was ied iurning to his "roots", the agency would wele him with open arms.
A director who could make blockbuster after blockbuster would be accepted by any ageno matter what kind of person he was.

[Author's note: Kazir will meet a new person (female), one of the seven people who wore skimpy outfits. You decide who it will be, you have one day to choose because I will write tomorrow. Just vote for it in the poll I will post (Edit: The Patreon poll is already closed and the actress has already appeared in the chapters. This paragraph is basically useless but I didn't erase it just because.)].
[One more thing, do you want Kazir to ge from good to bad or bad to good? Readers have said that Kazir is too stable and b. This is a question I want to hear you answers. Feel free to ent].
