System in Hollywood

"Come with me for a moment."

"Yes, Mr. Anderson." Martina Garcia clearly recognized Wayne.

This made Wayne gain a deeper understanding of her character and intentions.

Moments later, under the gaze of countless curious and envious eyes, they walked to a corner.

"You came alone last night, right? I saw you. You signed on as an extra in Paris, didn't you?" Wayne observed her for a moment before smiling and asking.

"Yes, Mr. Anderson."

"I remember the crew reimbursed your travel and accommodation expenses, and if you saved money, you could have taken the $100 compensation the crew offered. Why didn't you take the compensation?" Wayne asked again.

For someone like Martina Garcia, a regular extra, the pay was much lower than that of Eva Green—just $150 a day.

That amount of money wasn't even enough for round-trip tickets and lodging.

So, there was only one reason why Martina Garcia still insisted on coming.

"I know, sir. In fact, the two friends I was with advised me to take the compensation and terminate the contract. After all, $100 is not a small amount for temporary actors like us. But I didn't want to miss this opportunity. I don't want to just be an extra, and I don't want to stay in France. I want to go to Hollywood, I want to be a star!" Martina Garcia took a deep breath and said sincerely.

And becoming a big star in Hollywood is almost the ultimate dream of every girl entering this industry worldwide in this era.

"You're very honest, Martina, and I like honest and beautiful girls like you." Wayne smiled slightly and continued, "I can take you to Hollywood, and even help you become a big star. But in return, you'll need to offer me your body until I get bored of it. If you agree, wait for me here after the shoot."

Wayne handed her a room key card as he spoke.

His blunt words were like the devil's whispers, filled with temptation, and Martina Garcia couldn't help but feel moved.

She had looked into Wayne's background.

He was not only an up-and-coming Hollywood B-list star but also owned a medium-sized production company.

Such a person could definitely be a huge help to her career.

This was why she had insisted on taking a chance, and now that the opportunity was right in front of her, how could she refuse?

"Should I play coy?" Martina thought to herself.

But then she remembered that Wayne had just said he liked her honesty, so she decided not to pretend. Excitedly, she took the key card, gripping it tightly in her hand as if holding the key to her destiny.

Luckily, her role in this movie was just an insignificant extra, so her unsettled mood didn't affect the shooting.

As soon as her scenes were done, Martina quickly changed clothes, took the key card, and, with a mix of nervousness, excitement, and anticipation, returned to the hotel.

When night fell and the day's shooting was finally over, Wayne returned to the hotel, only to find Martina, who had already showered and changed clothes, fast asleep on the bed.

Looking at the beautiful, mixed-race woman before him, who resembled a sleeping beauty, Wayne didn't waste any time and walked straight over.

"From now on, you're my woman." Wayne wrapped his arms around her smooth, silk-like body and declared in a domineering tone, leaving her no room to refuse.

Of course, Martina had no intention of refusing.

Wayne had good looks, a great body, and was excellent in bed, giving her immense pleasure during their intimate moments.

Plus, he was the owner of a production company, someone who could help her career and fulfill her dreams.

Except for the fact that Wayne had other women, everything else about him exceeded her ideal standards for the perfect prince charming.

But in the entertainment industry, it was normal for powerful men to have many women.

Moreover, she was from Colombia, and she was more open-minded about this than the average American girl.

"Just in time, my Hemera Productions is about to start filming a new movie with a budget of around $15 million. The female lead is a perfect fit for you," Wayne continued.

Before he could finish, Martina, who had been so tired she could barely keep her eyes open, suddenly sat up from his arms.

"A female lead in a $14 million movie?! Can I really do it?"

Martina's hoarse voice trembled slightly, and she sounded obviously anxious.

She wasn't pretending, nor was she just timid.

She had only played a few minor roles without any lines or solo shots, and suddenly being cast as the female lead in a movie with a budget of $14 million would make anyone nervous, even someone like Zhang Ziyi, who had gained some fame in Hollywood after "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

"In a couple of days, I'll have my assistant take you to America. She'll arrange a place for you to stay, and my agent will contact you to sign a contract and hire an acting coach to give you one-on-one lessons. You'll have about five days to prepare."

After a slight pause, Wayne smiled and continued, "Do you know how many actors there are in Hollywood? According to incomplete statistics, more than 200,000. Globally, even more."

"And how many actors get to star in a $14 million movie? Maybe less than 200."

"Are you willing to give up such an opportunity?"

The answer was, of course, no.

Martina's heart pounded wildly, but her mind became clear.

What good would it do to be nervous or anxious? The opportunity that countless actresses around the world dream of was now in front of her. She had to seize it, even if it killed her!

"Thank you, darling. You're so good to me!"

"This is nothing; I have an even better gift for you~"

Wayne, with a wicked smile, glanced at her alluring body. Seeing that she had regained some strength, he pulled her up again, giving her a gift worth millions.
