"So it's only 6 months? How about we make it official, no expiration date?"
Cameron Diaz crossed her legs and looked at Kazir Grey and his agent. Giving her best smile.
Even Salvatore Barlowe was wiping his sweat. He had just learned that Kazir was involved in a scandal. His last scandal almost gave him a heart attack. He didn't want to experience that again. Thankfully, this kind of scandal was quite tame but it could still affect the release of John Wick.
"Miss Cameron, I think keeping it within 6 months is the best choice."
Salvatore looked at Kazir Grey who was standing next to him. Kazir nodded and agreed.
"Aww, what a waste."
Inside the Paramount headquarters, the two sides decided to sign a contract. Kazir Grey and Cameron Diaz didn't have a problem with forming a relationship, but they both have their own opinions.
Kazir Grey has to make sure that John Wick does not suffer from this scandal. So instead of denying the relationship and causing trouble, he might as well join the hype.
As for Cameron Diaz, she wanted a longer duration because her two movies were already released this year. Her next project would be released in November next year. The 6 months contract would be useless for Cameron Diaz and she could not use it as a means of promotion. So she was hoping for at least a year or more.
However, Kazir's side was adamant to keep it within 6 months. He could extend the contract but that would be another story.[Not connected to the story. Anyway, I only post my novels on Webnovel, ScribbleHub, RoyalRoad and Questionable Questing, where you can read them for free. So if you're reading this on another site, it means this novel is being pirated.]
"If I don't make money on this contract, I have no reason to sign it."
Cameron Diaz had a high opinion of Kazir Grey. And frankly, she wanted to have a relationship with him. But it was clear that Kazir didn't want a serious relationship.
"..."
Kazir was silent for a few seconds.
"So you expect me to accept this contract without getting anything in return? Extend the relationship for a year and I will agree."
Cameron Diaz smiled sweetly. In a way, what happened was not her problem. She didn't have a movie at the moment, so the scandal wouldn't jeopardize her. But for Kazir it was different. John Wick was scheduled to be released next week. The ticket sales of the first week were important to determine the strength of John Wick at the box office.
Well, Cameron Diaz liked Kazir, so she was going to sign the contract, but it was going to be a one-year contract.
"What do you think, Kazir? I'm fine with a year, we can live in a single house if you want."
Kazir Grey thought seriously.
'I guess I don't have a choice but to use this method.'
He sighed and leaned back in his chair.
"A role. I can give you a role in my movie."
"Hm? And what kind of role? For the record, I won't accept a small role. It should be an important role."
"I have the script here."
Kazir Grey handed her a hardcopy of the script.
"The Bourne Identity? I think I heard that title somewhere. Is it a novel?"
Cameron asked him.
"That's right. I bought the movie adaptation of The Bourne Identity."
"But I thought you preferred to film original screenplays."
"I never said that."
He could not recall an interview where he said that. Perhaps people just thought of it naturally.
"Well, all your movies are based on original screenplays. So I thought you didn't like adaptations."
She began to skim the script. Her agent looked at the script and was skeptical.
'It's based on a novel, so it has a good chance of being a box office hit.'
"What's my role?"
"You will be Marie Kreutz."
"Hm, I see I have many scenes and lines. I'm interested."
Cameron Diaz didn't have any movies coming out before November 1999. She knew that Kazir Grey had a fast shooting schedule. It wouldn't be a problem if she took two to three months to join the shoot of The Bourne Identity.
Charlie's Angels would be released in 2000 and it was not urgent. So far, she was just training for the role.
Anyway, Cameron was sold on the idea of working with a successful director like Kazir Grey.
'Fufu, I can use this opportunity to seduce Kazir. How fun.'
She looked at Kazir. In fact, this man might be the best she ever met.
Cameron Diaz looked at her agent and nodded. Her agent didn't have a problem. Director Grey had the best filmography of the last three years. The agent liked that Cameron Diaz had an interaction with him.
"Okay, I agree. As for the salary, let our agents negotiate that."
"I understand."
The two shook hands and signed a 6-month relationship contract. Of course, they listed their conditions, likes, and dislikes.
This kind of promotion was never old.
This was still a speculation but rumors said that Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson became a couple to promote Twilight. This was also the same with Tom Holland and Zendaya to promote Spider-Man. Even Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield for the same reason. Of course, this was nothing but rumors and no one could prove it.
Sometimes relationship gossip was the best way to get media attention.
Since Kazir and Cameron agreed to work together, Paramount found the best way to promote John Wick.
A Viacom-owned newspaper announced that Cameron Diaz and Kazir Grey were actually dating! The other media followed and reported the news, especially CBS, which was owned by Viacom.
"Director Grey! Director Grey! Can you please tell us about your relationship with Cameron Diaz?"
A Viacom reporter blocked Kazir's path. A camera followed Kazir as he walked out the exit. Note that this was staged.
"If you're talking about my relationship with Cam, that's right, we're dating. But we don't like to show it to the public."
"When did you start dating?"
"That's private information."
Kazir reached the exit.
"Director Grey! Director Grey, one more question, please."
"I'm sorry, I don't have time for this."
A car pulled up in front of Kazir. He opened the door and got in.
"Hi, honey~"
"Hm." Kazir nodded.
The reporter was stunned when he saw Cameron Diaz in the driver's seat!
Kazir and Cameron kissed before they left the scene.
It was all recorded! That night, Kazir Grey and Cameron Diaz were all over the news.
Of course, John Wick was also being promoted. When people heard about Kazir Grey or Cameron Diaz, they always heard about the movie John Wick.
