Chapter 576 We Should Do It
"It wasn't until he said those words that I was impressed and realized he was indeed a great director in
Ambario. That's why I admire him."
Then Nathan repeated to Natalia the words that Sepp had said to him.
When Natalia heard it, she was also impressed.
It was hard to imagine that such words were said by such a young director.
Nathan said, "Over the years, our science fiction movies have been no match for those of other
countries, because we don't have state-of-the-art technologies or advanced ideas. He wants to be the
first director to break the barriers and show the kind of science fiction movies that we made to the
people from the other side of the planet. He wanted them to know that we too aspire to the universe
and can make good movies in this field."
The whole office fell silent after hearing what he said.
Natalia leaned back in her chair and was silent for a long time.
Nathan didn't rush her. He just put all the budget lists and a list of everything they needed in front of
her.
After a while, Natalia said, "You should go. I have to sleep on it."
After all, she had to invest a hundred million dollars and couldn't be sloppy.
Nathan knew it would be hard to convince Natalia right away, so he didn't push her. He stood up,
nodded, and turned to leave.
After Nathan left, Natalia went through the materials carefully.
It was two hours later when she finished reading.
Natalia stretched her body and walked around her office.
She had to say that from what she just read alone she could tell that Nathan was serious about this
project.
She didn't know if he was doing it for his friend's dying wish or if he really wanted to contribute to his
country's movie industry.
Anyway, she now thought it was a viable project.
Natalia thought about it and called Archie.
Archie was in a meeting at the headquarters of McCarthy Properties. When he received her call, he
raised his hand to stop his coworkers who were reporting data, stepped aside, and picked up his phone
in a soft voice, "Hey, Lia."
Natalia rubbed her forehead in her chair and said with a smile, "Am I interrupting your work?"
Archie said in front of the executives who were waiting for him to hang up and continue the meeting,
"No. I finished my work and was about to call you."
The executives were speechless.
Natalia smiled, "That's good. I'm a little hesitant about something and wanna know your opinions."
"Well, go ahead."
Natalia then told Archie about the project.
Archie didn't comment but asked her, "What do you think?"
Natalia hesitated and told him what was on her mind.
"It's risky, but if it does succeed, not only will we make a lot of profit, but it could very well be a
milestone in the history of science fiction movies."
Archie curled his lips slightly.
Then he said without hesitation, "Then let's do it."
"What?"
Natalia didn't expect him to agree so quickly and was surprised for a moment.
"Wait, did you get my point?"
Archie gave an extremely doting and confident smile.
"Yes, but since you said it might be great, we should do it."
"But what if it failed? It's a lot of money, and I don't think people have confidence in this subject
anymore, so very few people will invest in it. Annie International needs to cover everything."
Archie kept smiling as if he didn't even take it to heart.
"We have to do it just because it's too risky."
Natalia was a little confused and didn't understand what he meant.
Archie sighed.
"Didn't you say it would be a milestone in the history of science fiction movies? Who has the courage
and strength to do it except Annie International? If we are afraid of the risk, even if it has only a ten
percent chance of success, it can never work."
Natalia was shocked.
Archie continued, "Even if we lose, we tried and won't regret it. What do you think?"
There was silence on the other side of the phone.
After a while, he heard Natalia's voice.
She chuckled and said with mixed feelings.
"Archie, I really..." Natalia smiled and paused for a moment before saying, "I love you."
Archie squinted happily at her words.
In the meeting room, the executives who were waiting in their seats for their boss to hang up the phone
and continue the meeting didn't hear what Natalia said on the phone.
They just saw a weird and gentle smile on Archie's cold poker face.
...
They shuddered in unison.
Archie glanced back at them and said on the phone, "I gotta go."
Natalia nodded, "Well, then I'll do it?"
"It's up to you."
After hanging up the phone, Archie returned to the conference table and his gaze turned cold. He RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
looked at everyone and sat down.
The executive who was reporting just now immediately approached and continued to report.
They sat upright as if nothing had just happened, but they were all curious.
At the same time.
Natalia understood what Archie meant.
Yes, this project required a lot of money and was very risky. Annie International was the only one in the
industry that had the money and strength to do it right now.
If they succeeded, it would be a great step forward.
If they failed, they wouldn't regret it. Someone had to do it sooner or later.
If no one took the first step, no one else would dare to make a science fiction movie and the subject
would always be looked down upon in the country.
With that in mind, Natalia called Nathan and told him she wanted to talk to him and the screenwriter
tonight.
Nathan was overjoyed to hear it.
He had thought he would wait for a long time and might not get good news.
Unexpectedly, he received a call from Natalia so soon.
He asked in surprise on the other end of the line, "Really? We could really do this?"
Natalia smiled, "I'm not sure, but I'm interested, and I need to learn more about it."
