Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Matthew followed David Heyman and walked out of the audition room without thinking. But as soon as he walked to the door, Francis Lawrence's voice came from behind.

"Matthew Horner!"

Hearing this voice, Matthew looked back and Francis Lawrence stood there, staring at him with his eyes tightly, and asked, "What did you do?"

Francis Lawrence frowned. Yesterday, Aziva Gossman's attitude was very clear. Today, if there was no Matthew Horner behind it, he would not believe anything.

Matthew shrugged slightly, calmly nonsense, "It's simple, I told Aziva Gossman that if he didn't use Alexandra Dadario, I'll quit the crew."

"You..." Francis Lawrence was speechless for a moment.

"Don't think it's unfair." Matthew said lightly, "The reality is that I'm more important to the crew than you!"

These words obviously hurt Frances Lawrence, his voice was low, "Not necessarily!"

Matthew spread his hands and said, "Isn't it? After you left yesterday, I went to Aziva Gosman and told him that either Alexandra Dadario should be enabled or I quit the project, and he immediately made a choice."

Francis Lawrence took a step forward and his tone became aggressive, "You're just an actor!"

"Yes." Matthew could also hear from his tone that Francis Lawrence, like most Hollywood directors, has a huge psychological advantage for actors. He doesn't find it strange. After all, the director is in a relatively upstream position in the industry. He also said, "The director is far more important to a film project than an actor, but it is not suitable for you and me."

After saying that, he no longer paid attention to Francis Lawrence, turned around and left the audition room directly.

He shook his head and walked towards the exit of the corridor. Perhaps Francis Lawrence was stimulated by his turn and it would be even more difficult for him to accept the current result. It might be even more difficult for him to find Aziva Gossman.

Francis Lawrence didn't believe the reasons David Heyman and Aziva Gossman said at all. He wanted to discuss with Aziva Gossman. After saying these words to Matthew Horner, he could no longer bear it. He immediately left the audition room and strode to an office door. After knocking, he pushed open the office door without waiting for the response inside.

Aziva Gosman stayed alone in the office and saw Francis Lawrence and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

Although Francis Lawrence was a little impulsive, he didn't feel dizzy. He quickly closed the office door and said, "Aziva, I stick to my point of view. Alexandra Dadario is not suitable for the role of Anne!"

Aziva Gosman shook his head, "I have made a decision."

Francis Lawrence frowned and said, "Alexandra Dadario does not meet my shooting requirements at all, and her acting skills simply do not meet my shooting standards."

"Then change your standards." Aziva Gossman said directly, "I will change the script and character settings appropriately. Alexandra Dadario has no problem playing this role."

"Sorry." Francis Lawrence insisted on his opinion, "I can't shoot if that happens."

Aziva Gosman looked over and asked, "What do you mean?"

Francis Lawrence could not explain to Paula Patton for the result now, and his brows became even tighter.

Aziva Gosman waved his hand and said, "This matter is decided so much, needless to say."

Francis Lawrence had no intention of leaving, and was silent for a few seconds, and said, "If Alexandra Dadario played Anne, I would not be able to shoot normally. She could not meet my requirements at all. I would not be able to direct this project."

He has been in the group since March and has been involved in the film preparation for nearly two months, and he considers himself one of the most core members of the project.

As soon as these words were spoken, Aziva Gosman couldn't help but be stunned. Of course he understood the meaning of Francis Lawrence's words.

He thought for a while and asked, "If I insist on using Alexandra Dadario, you're going to quit the crew?"

Speaking of this, Francis Lawrence no longer circled and said directly, "When I signed the contract, the agreement formulated by the crew included an exit mechanism."

Aziva Gossman naturally remembers that he was not particularly relieved at the time, Francis Lawrence, a young director, specially added a clause to the contract. If the two parties have differences in their creative concepts, the crew only needs to pay him $500,000 to dismiss Francis Lawrence. Francis Lawrence can also resign from the crew, but there is no remuneration for voluntarily resigning, and all his work results involving the project belong to the crew.

The reason for joining this clause is because of the unsuccessful box office of "Hell Detective". In case Francis Lawrence does not meet the requirements, he can fire Francis Lawrence's squid at any time.

"Francis!" Aziva Gosman looked at him and said, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Francis Lawrence had no intention of giving in at all, "I stick to my philosophy!"

If Francis Lawrence is indispensable to the crew, Aziva Gossman would definitely compromise, but he never wanted to let go.

Aziva Gossman is not a well-known gold medal producer like Jerry Brookheimer, but looking at Hollywood, he is also one of the best first-line producers. He has to surpass the Oscar Little Golden Man in terms of screenwriters, and he has a very high opinion of himself.

Just as he has always insisted that Matthew is the first and not a must-have for the male lead of the project "I am Legend", in Aziva Gossman's heart, the core of this project is only him, the screenwriter and producer, and nothing else.

"Francis." Aziva Gossman's voice eased a lot, and he once again said to Francis Lawrence. "This kind of decision should be cautious."

"This does not match my philosophy." Francis Lawrence thought of Paula Patton, and the box office of "The Detective of Hell" without heavyweight black characters, and said without hesitation. "I quit the crew and no longer serve as the director of "I am a Legend."

His meaning is very clear. As a director who insists on it, he took the initiative to fire the crew, rather than the crew who took the initiative to fire him. There is a fundamental difference between the two.

Aziva Gosman frowned. Although this was not the result he wanted, he didn't want to persuade him to stay. There were too many projects to change directors in Hollywood in the middle. Not to mention that the crew of "I Am a Legend" was just preparing for the early stage, there are many examples of changing directors during the filming stage.

In his mind, this project could be without Matthew Horner, director Francis Lawrence, or even the producer and distribution party Warner Bros., and he could find other companies.

Only he himself is truly indispensable.

Looking at Francis Lawrence, Aziva Gosman couldn't help but think of Matthew Horner. This director was obviously more persistent and principled than Matthew Horner.

Of course, Matthew Horner knows the value of compromise and is smarter.

Aziva Gosman nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I will notify the crew's legal department to negotiate with your agency about the termination."

Francis Lawrence said nothing more and turned away from Aziva Gosman's office.

Aziva Gossman didn't look at Francis Lawrence again, and his head quickly turned, and the names of directors began to appear in his mind, and then he decided which one was suitable to take over the director's position of Francis Lawrence.

For him, for the project "I am a Legend", from this moment on, Francis Lawrence has become a thing of the past.

The crew will not stagnate because of the departure of a director. In fact, all the preliminary preparations are under his control. Even if Matthew Horner and Francis Lawrence leave the crew together, the project can still be carried out.

The office door was pushed open from outside again, David Heyman walked in, Aziva Gosman glanced at him and said, "You are here just right, I'm going to find you, Francis Lawrence is going to quit the crew, let's discuss the candidate for the new director..."

At the door of Warner Studios, Francis Lawrence had just gotten into the business car when he received a call from Paula Patton.

"Hi, my dear." Paula Patton said with a laugh, "Is the crew officially confirmed?"

Francis Lawrence's face was gloomy, but he was relatively calm. He said, "I'm sure..."

"Great!" Paula Patton interrupted him directly on the phone and said, "When will the crew start negotiations? The agency is ready."

"Sorry, my dear." Francis Lawrence said as simply as possible, "The person who passed the audition in the end was not you, but Alexandra Dadario."

Paula Patton on the other side of the phone almost shouted, "What? Alexandra Dadario passed the audition? How could this happen? Didn't you say..."

Francis Lawrence interrupted her and said, "Things changed unexpectedly. Matthew Horner didn't know what he did, so he changed his mind."

"Didn't you fight for me?" Paula Patton's words were a little doubtful.

"I have it." Francis Lawrence decided, "to help you fight, I quit the director of this project..."

The other side of the phone suddenly became quiet, and he said again, "Let's talk in detail when we meet."
