Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Do you want to help James?" Steven asked.

"Logically speaking, my relationship with James is not that good, but it happened that the director of "God of War" humiliated me on one occasion, and he gave me ten dollars, and I have kept this ten dollars. Chen Zhao said: "Besides, isn't this the Chinese New Year? I want to make some extra money."

Steven felt comfortable hearing these words.

Chen Zhao said that his relationship with James is not that good.

He helped himself, which meant that he had a very good relationship with himself.

"Are you still planning to use that lucky gold coin?" Steven asked.

"right."

"You said that this lucky gold coin can only be used once. It's better to keep this lucky gold coin. Our new movie will start shooting soon, and you have a part in this movie."

"I still have it." Chen Zhao said, "Don't worry, you will definitely not forget our movie."

"Now that you have decided, I will call James over."

"Okay, call him over."

After a while James came.

"Hi, Mr. Chen, Mr. Steven, Merry Christmas."

James is not in a good mental state.

He looks somewhat similar to the original Steven.

Chen Zhao and Steven looked at each other.

"James, your new movie will be released soon."

"Well, yes." James nodded, with a bit of bitterness on his face.

"How's it going? Do you have any expectations for the box office of this movie?" Steven asked.

"Mr. Steven, aren't you kidding me?" James smiled bitterly.

"Don't think about the unpleasantness. We called you here just because we wanted to drink." Steven said.

"Mr. Steven, I... I have to go back and watch the re-edited version. The new edited version of the film will be sent to theaters tomorrow."

"You drink with us, and I'll help you edit." Steven said.

James was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Steven, are you serious?"

"Of course, I'm not kidding."

"Then...can I put your name on it?"

"Okay." Steven nodded.

James was about to fly.

Even if Steven is not a director, but just an editor, he still has a huge impact on the film.

Moreover, Steven's previous film "The Wild One" was also edited by Steven himself.

It was precisely because he edited it himself that this god-like film was created.

"However, there are only three days left before the release, and the film will be sent to theaters the day after tomorrow at the latest. You want to edit it, are you able to make it in time?"

"Don't you believe me?" Steven said.

"I believe it, I believe it."

For James, this is a good thing that comes from heaven.

Chen Zhao and Steven got James drunk directly, and then Chen Zhao took out a lucky gold coin.

Chen Zhao grabbed James' finger and pricked it directly.

Drop a drop of blood on the gold coin.

"Is this done?"

"It's not like you've never used it before, yet you're asking such a layman question."

"Well, this guy is really cheap."

Steven stuffed the lucky gold coin into James' pocket.

Chen Zhao went on to give gifts again, so Chen Zhao didn't have to worry about it in the future.

…

"Mr. Steven, I heard that you are the editor of the new Christmas movie "Animal Supermarket"?"

"Yes, what's the problem?"

"But Director James should be your assistant director. Now he has become the chief director and you have become his editor. Do you think he has this qualification?"

"Boy, this has nothing to do with qualifications. James is my friend. He is a very talented guy, so I will help him if I can." Steven said calmly.

"But I heard that this movie is only a small- and medium-sized investment movie. Aren't you afraid of affecting your reputation?"

"I'm Steven, why should I be afraid? And I don't think James will fail, and I don't think I will fail."

"Mr. Steven, I have no intention of doubting your accomplishments in film, but after all, this film was not directed by you. Do you think an editing right can have any impact on the film?"

"First of all, James is a good movie, so I took this job. If I thought it was a piece of shit, if I thought the movie was hopeless, then I wouldn't take the job."

…

Sonnenfeld hugged Salad and watched Steven's interview on TV.

"Dear, Mr. Steven is now editing "Animal Supermarket", will it affect the box office of "God of War"?" Sara asked worriedly.

"Salad, you still don't understand movies. Steven is too arrogant. He is a human, not a god." Sonnenfeld said with a smile, disapproval written all over his face: "The movie "Animal Supermarket" will become a stain on him. , he will be dragged down by this movie and it will become a disgrace to him."

"Just watch how "God of War" killed "Animal Supermarket"." Sonnenfeld said proudly.

If it were a movie directed by Steven, of course he wouldn't dare to make such big claims.

But Steven is only responsible for editing.

And if a movie needs to be edited, the problem cannot be solved in three to five days.

It took a month or two to watch the film over and over again, and then tinker with it, until finally the film was ready for the audience to see in the cinema.

The news that Sonnenfeld received was that Steven was called in at a critical moment two days ago and accepted the editing job.

In his opinion, Steven did not accept this job to help edit James' "Animal Supermarket".

Just let James borrow his name and his box office appeal.

"That's fine. Taking this opportunity, as long as my movie is a success, I will send some manuscripts to the media, so that everyone will think that I beat Steven at the box office, and then I will direct the next movie. , my remuneration can be doubled several times." Sonnenfeld said with bright eyes.

"Then the heroine in your next movie will be me, right?"

"Of course, baby, I will tailor a script for you, and you will become a star that attracts everyone's attention, the darling of those international fashion brands."

"Great, I knew you were good to me." Sarah said happily: "You are much better than that good-for-nothing James."

"which aspect?"

"Any aspect." Sarah had already turned over and pressed on Sonnenfeld's body.

Suddenly they saw a man walking with a big black dog, and the two immediately recognized the man as Chen Zhao.

"It's so unlucky to meet this Asian here." Sonnenfeld looked disdainful.

As for what Chen Zhao said to him that day, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Chen Zhao said with a smile on his face: "Isn't this a great director? Do you live here?"

Chen Zhao raised his head and glanced at the villa in front of him. Sonnenfeld looked disgusted: "Damn it, what's going on with the property in this community? Why do everyone come in? I should go to the property management to complain."
