Chapter 1797 Mr. Sage
Nicole nodded and reached out to shake Fabian’s hand.
She knew that she should be courteous and forgive Fabian, who admitted his fault.
Nicole then smiled at Harvey, who looked stunned. “Mr. Sage?”
She heard that after Harvey’s net worth soared, he did not make any unreasonable demands with Falcon Entertainment. Instead, he proposed a one-year betting agreement.
Harvey intended to use $500 million to purchase shares of Falcon Entertainment.
Not much, just ten percent.
Nicole had to admit that Harvey was really a very smart person.
An actor only had limited years in their prime. Those who were too popular when they were young would not be able to stand starring in older roles after their youth was gone.
This was also cruel to the fans of the big screen and would easily cause the actors’ popularity to fade away.
Thus, actors would turn behind the scenes, as investors, producers, and so on.
There were also many actors who started their own companies and studios to train newcomers.
Harvey had a long-term vision. He did not choose to go out on his own but intended to stay bolted together with Falcon Entertainment.
There were many who wanted shares in Falcon Entertainment, but Kai was stubborn, and no one could do anything about it.
The reason why Harvey was so obsessed with Falcon Entertainment was that he was aware of the human resources behind it.
Kai, the founder of Falcon Entertainment, was the Third Young Master of Stanton Corporation, which meant that Stanton Corporation was their backer.
Relationships in the entertainment circle were intertwined and complex. If one could occupy a seat in Falcon Entertainment, then they were considered to have a strong foothold in the industry.
Actors were always on the lookout to maintain their persona and deal with blackmail, and many fell from glory in a second.
However, being a boss was different. A boss had the right to speak and could take more initiative.
Dominic and Kai discussed it. Harvey stated very generous conditions. Not to mention, Harvey did not ask for much. Besides, he might not win the bet either.
Thus, Kai agreed.
In less than a year, Harvey won the bet by making $500 million after taxes.
This was considered shocking for the entire entertainment industry. Within that year, Harvey shot a lot of films that became very popular. Their ratings also broke records.
Now, Harvey became the hottest A-list actor based on his skills, and his net worth grew exponentially. However, after the bet, Harvey chose to keep a low profile and accepted good scripts based on his acting skills.
Therefore, it was not at all exaggerated for Nicole to address Harvey formally as “Mr. Sage”.
An opportunity would not prevent others from excelling, just like Harvey.
When Harvey saw Nicole, he froze for a moment and walked over with a hint of joy in his eyes.
“Ms. Stanton, did you come to visit the set?”
Julie, who was on the side, spoke up first.
“She just heard that you both are starring in this show and insisted on coming over to check it out. It’s just as well that you guys walked in. But don’t tell anyone about her visit. She has to keep a low profile recently.”
Harvey nodded. Fabian was unable to hide the twinkle in his eyes. “Then, canlinvite Ms. Stantont o join us for dinner?”
Nicole glanced at Fabian and refused with a light smile.
“I have a meeting nearby, so I won’t eat with you guys. Besides, the food on the set isn’t great.”
Nicole blinked her eyes and said half-jokingly.
Such a refusal would not make people feel embarrassed at all.
Fabian bowed his head and smiled. “Then we can go next time. We do have to make up for a few scenes later.”
Julie asked, “There are plenty of opportunities for that. You guys should hurry up and remove your makeup.”
Fabian nodded and glanced at Harvey, then slowly left.
Harvey did not follow Fabian and stood there, looking at Nicole. His smile was light and not offensive.
“Ms. Stanton, I heard from Mr. Young that you haven’t been to the office lately?”
