Chapter 397: 397: Impressive Events
“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.”
Olivia Jenkins looked at Benjamin Johnson, “Thank you!”
Benjamin Johnson shrugged it off with a casual smile, “Don’t mention it, consider it as repayment.”
“One thing at a time, don’t get me wrong.”
The smile on Benjamin Johnson’s face faded, his tone becoming slightly serious, “Once, you were a doctor. You must know many experts from various fields. Can you introduce a doctor to me?”
Olivia Jenkins trembled slightly, took out her phone, found a professor on WeChat, and pushed it over.
“He’s a professor I met at medical school. At that time, this professor sincerely invited me to take his course. Although I didn’t take his course in the end, we had a lot of discussions, and our relationship is quite good. He should be able to help you.”
Benjamin Johnson nodded, “I will definitely contact him. If you need help, you can also come to me.”
“Adam Howard and Martin Wallace are helping me, don’t bother yourself with it.”
Benjamin Johnson stood up, seeming much more relaxed, “I’ve already eaten. You eat slowly. I’m going to take a walk and enjoy the night view of Cross City.”
Olivia watched as Benjamin walked off.
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.
