Chapter 156 Ambush from all sides
Perhaps Harry Smith is not keen enough in selecting works, but no one can deny that his abilities in other aspects are indeed outstanding.

In the blink of an eye, the thoughts in Harry's mind quickly unfolded.

He was 100% sure that he would have browsed through the list of thirty-six alternate actors and would not have reacted if he saw Anson's name.

His brain instantly grasped an idea. Although it was not clear enough and had no evidence, it was just a feeling, but Harry still turned to look at Edgar.

"It's you?"

Harry's final voice rose, full of doubts, speculations, intimidation, threats, oppression and other mixed emotions. In just one sentence, it caused ripples.

Edgar is not surprised that his little trick may be discovered. After all, everyone here is an experienced person who has used all the tricks that are not on the table. They are much more experienced than Edgar. They can see through the truth after calming down a little. .

What surprised him was that it was so fast?

Harry's words disrupted Edgar's position.

Before Edgar could respond, Harry turned to look at the other people in the conference room.

"This is Anson Wood, Darren Star's nephew/nephew. Not long ago, Darren approached me and hoped that I could sign him. I met him once."

"I am very sure and certain that his name is not included in the actor waiting list we submitted..."

hum.

The air vibrated slightly.

No one spoke, and no one was surprised. Such a method was just a splash in Vanity Fair, but all eyes were on Edgar——

Explore, consider, be vigilant, tease, appreciate.

The posture of a superior observing a juggler from a high position suddenly surrounded Edgar, and his sharp and hot gaze made his skin slightly hot.

At this time, Edgar stood firm and calmed down.

Maybe Harry has guessed the truth, maybe not yet; but it is no longer important now, because the real key in front of him is not here.

then.

"it's me."

Edgar interrupted Harry's words.

Harry:…

Obviously, Harry did not expect Edgar to interrupt him, nor did he expect that Edgar would look at the entire audience but ignore him.

At William Morris, such situations are rare.

Harry frowned and was about to continue speaking and regain control of the situation, but this time, Edgar took the lead.

"I secretly stuffed Anson's profile into a brown paper bag and mailed it to Sony Columbia."

the truth?

Edgar didn't mind, he would reveal it himself.

Without flinching, without being nervous, without being timid, Edgar raised his head, looked around confidently, and welcomed all the gazes calmly.

"I believe in Anson's potential, I believe Harry made a mistake in not signing Anson and I believe we should go all out to seize this opportunity."

——"Spider-Man", this is the most important thing.

While Harry was still struggling with the so-called "truth", Edgar had gone straight to the point. No one cared how Anson's introduction appeared in the brown paper bag. The only thing they needed to care about was whether William Morris could beat other competition. Opponents seize this opportunity.

If Anson fails, they can settle the score later.

But what if Anson succeeds?
Ambush from all sides, so what, Edgar relied on his courage and courage to fight his way out and gain a chance for himself.

All eyes were focused on Edgar.

Harry's breath was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't swallow it or spit it out. The whole thing was so sudden and unexpected, packed into just thirty seconds.

Harry, "You know this is against the rules, and you know you have no right to participate in these decisions..."

In fact, Harry was not alone.

The agents in front of me have all been through Edgar's situation. They have worked hard to get to where they are now, and they are not doing it just for others to mess with them.

A voice said, "That list is the result of our careful consideration."

Two voices said, "I don't think we should randomly choose an actor we don't understand." Three voices said, "There are rules here. If you don't like it, the door is there and you know how to leave."

In an instant, Edgar became the target of public criticism.

However, this was not beyond Edgar's expectations.

He will never be beaten passively.

Edgar firmly faced the provocative and critical eyes and threw a heavy blow, "Sony Colombia does not like your plan."

A slap in the face, loud.

Then, the conference room fell silent.

Edgar was not sluggish, but firmly grasped this rare pure time. Not only did he not flinch, but he took two steps forward slightly, exposing himself to everyone's view, so that they could see his expression and eyes clearly.

"Here's the thing, you can say no to my idea, you can say no to Ian Bryce's call, I can walk away right now."

"Believe me, I know where the company door is."

smile.

"But equally, other competitors know where our company's doors are. If Ian Bryce hadn't been able to get Anson from us, what do you think he would have done?"

"Of course, William Morris is a large company with endless resources; but you have come up with thirty-six candidates from your own resources, thirty-six candidates, as you say, thoughtfully and carefully selected. Alternates, do you think the second list can be better?"

"So, when Ian Bryce saw the second list - there was still no Anson, and then inadvertently, he thought of Anson again, what next?"

"I guess Ian Bryce should be able to find Anson's phone number, but I don't think it will be William Morris who stands in the middle to make the connections and start the investigation."

Take the initiative.

The smile was still on his lips, but his eyes were particularly bright, and Edgar also showed his confidence.

In the silence, Brian finally spoke, "The prerequisite for all this is based on Anson's specialness. Do you believe so much that he can get the role? Can you guarantee that Anson will stand out in the end?"

affim?

Or deny?

So, is Brian waiting for Edgar to issue a military order?

Edgar wasn't that stupid, "No."

He gave a negative answer.

"I have faith in Anson, 100 percent, but that's one thing; what happens after the audition is another thing and I can't guarantee that."

"For now, the only thing I know is that Ian Bryce needs Anson, and Anson is William Morris' only hope at the moment."

Be confident, but not blind.

Passionate, but not impulsive.

Even in the midst of chaos, Edgar remained clear-headed and firmly in control of the situation.

Brian looked at Edgar. Edgar did not avoid his gaze. His eyes were clear and bright, and time seemed to stand still for a short time.

One second? Or ten seconds?

Brian nodded slightly, "You take Anson and leave for New York immediately."

boom!
There was a great uproar.

"Brian?"

"This is a wrong decision."

"That's not how it should be."

But Brian ignored it at all. He raised his right hand and asked everyone to be quiet. "This is the final decision. The person Ian Bryce wants, we have no reason not to give him. The matter is decided like this, and the meeting is over."

After saying that, Brian turned around and left the meeting room without stopping, decisively making a final decision on the whole matter.

 Second update.
