A moment that deserved a celebration. Two awards were won by La La Land, which were Best Director Award and Best Actress Award. These two awards were both important awards in the industry.
Gaining this recognition would give Brianna and Fremont a massive boost to their careers. Their salaries would undoubtedly increase.
These awards may look simple but the importance they carry in the industry couldn't be gauged by money.
Winning an award at the Academy Awards meant that your name would be forever remembered in history. Whenever people think about the best actresses or the best directors, Brianna and Fremont would become part of the conversation.
One thing was clear, there would be a party for the crew members and cast of La La Land tonight. Champagne would pop... And probably some drugs as well.
The last segment of the show was the Best Picture Award. The movie that won the Best Picture was Million Dollar Baby.
With that, the show ended and the credits scene rolled.
"They are going to have a party tonight." Kazir thought.
"They sure."
"Well, they won two important awards so they are going to celebrate. I'm sure Fremont and Brianna won't act cheap tonight. They will go all out and spend a lot of money."
Having experienced this kind of celebration, Kazir had an idea of what would happen tonight... A lot of people would go drunk.
"We can also celebrate their success in our own way." Scarlett teased.
"Oh sure, we will."
"Yeah, we will."
Scarlett, who was sitting in Kazir's lap, purred and leaned closer. Sniffing Kazir's neck. She tried to kiss his neck but a phone rang and disturbed their peace.
It was Kazir's phone.
"..."
The two were quiet for a second. Kazir sighed and put down the beer. He reached for his phone and answered the call.
"Salvatore? Ah, yeah, it depends. I'll answer you later." Kazir bitterly smiled.
"What did he say?"
"He invited me to go to the party."
"You are the scriptwriter so I'm not surprised why he invited you... So what's your decision?"
"Salvatore or Brianna will probably call you later."
"You didn't answer my question." She said firmly while putting her weight on his lap, obviously teasing him.
"Above that..."
Scarlett giggled because she could see that Kazir was conflicted.
"I'll tell you this. If you don't make a move tonight, I'll hate you. So make sure you don't regret your decision." She smiled seductively.
"I think we should turn off our phones."
"Good idea."
Scarlett yelped playfully as Kazir carried her to the bedroom.
Well, let's just say that they didn't have enough rest when the sunshine came around.

...
Vance Goodhood. He was a stockbroker who worked for Goldman Sachs.
After working in the stock industry for years, he was confident to say that he knew how to be a millionaire. To be fair, he was indeed a millionaire.
In his opinion, the best way to be a millionaire in this industry was to be greedy. You have to understand when to pull out your investment. The second important factor was to understand the stocks you were buying. Other than that, don't be stupid.
Vance was going to meet one of his most important clients. In fact, this client helped him further his career at Goldman Sachs.
When Grey Pictures and 20th Century Fox had an agreement, Goldman Sachs had a part in that $3 billion worth of transactions between the two studios. Of course, Goldman Sachs made money and so did Vince.
Because of that, Vince was noticed by the management, which gave him a better position.
"Director, these are the documents."
Vince passed a thick stack of paper to Kazir.
Kazir yawned and rubbed his eyes. He stretched his arms that were hugging a soft tiny waist earlier. He glanced at the document and shook his head.
He had no patience nor intention to read documents that were not related to movies.
"Vance, this document is too thick for me to read. Can you tell me the important contents of this document instead?"
"Of course."
Vance was not surprised. Most of his clients preferred this way. His clients were rich, and they usually gave this document to their financial advisor and accountant to calculate the numbers. (Note: I have no idea what I'm writing; I'm not rich, so I don't know how they settle their finances. Heck, I don't even know how they calculate their taxes. They probably hire people.)
Vance started explaining.
"So basically, my stocks are worth more than $4.3 billion now?"
"That's correct. These past few years, you invested in Amazon, Apple, eBay, and Google. Furthermore, you are one of the shareholders of Facebook. Facebook's evaluation this year is $180 million."
Other than that, Kazir also invested in Nvidia, Intel, and Microsoft. He was also buying public shares of 20th Century Fox. Kazir was the second individual who owned shares of 20th Century Fox, first was Rupert Murdoch.
It was an understatement to say that Kazir was rich. He was wealthy. His descendants would have a great life for three to five generations... Unless some of them fucked up and squandered that amount.
"... Wow."
That was the best thing that Kazir could say. He didn't expect that he would reach this point in his life. He was damn wealthy.
He was not poor in his past life since he had residual income from his movies and he also inherited money from his father. But this amount of $4.3 billion was usually something out of his reach.
