Chapter 403 Emrys Declines The Offer
Emrys didn't particularly enjoy the feeling of being watched.
Despite being Emerentius and an Empyrean Lord, he seldom mentioned these two identities to others. He feared that if the public became aware of them, it would disrupt his peaceful life.
At home, there were many beautiful sisters waiting for him to guide... Ahem, waiting for him to take care of them. These leisurely days were something Emrys was quite content with.
If he were to enter the entertainment industry like Sierra, he would be hounded by the paparazzi all day long in the event he became famous.
Emrys had heard from Cordelia a long time ago that ever since Sierra became a big star, she had to return home in secret. She even had to buy a house in Summerbank, fearing that she might lead the paparazzi to her home and disrupt the lives of her other sisters.
Therefore, in order to avoid the predicament of having a home he couldn't return to, Emrys decisively rejected Seth's request.
Seth lamented, "Since you have no intention of venturing into the entertainment industry, Mr. Lund, I cannot force you. However, I still hope that you will give it some serious thought. Whenever you come around to the idea, feel free to call me. I will, without a doubt, tailor a script for you at the earliest opportunity."
As he spoke, Seth handed Emrys a business card.
It was evident that Seth truly admired Emrys. Otherwise, he wouldn't have proposed tailoring a drama specifically for him, allowing a newcomer to take the lead role. This was a move that entailed significant risk, but Seth believed it was worth a try.
"When the day comes that I've figured it out and can't hold back my desire for acting, I'll follow in Sierra's footsteps."
As Emrys spoke, he still reached out to accept the business card handed over by Seth. It was a matter of courtesy after all.
For a newcomer to land the leading male role in their first drama, there are typically only two scenarios. The first was that they had substantial support from a powerful patron. The second was that they possessed an exceptionally outstanding image and demeanor, perfectly aligning with the character of the male protagonist in the drama.
Emrys was slotted in by the investors and was also Sierra's younger brother, which meant that he certainly had a powerful patron. However, the reason Seth took a liking to him was definitely not because of his background. What Seth was truly captivated by was Emrys' personal charm.
When Seth announced his intention to promote Emrys to the leading male role, all the surrounding actors, whether they were extras or in supporting male and female roles, couldn't help but look on with eyes filled with envy. This was indeed what they had always dreamed of.
Everyone had witnessed Seth's capabilities. The number of newcomers he had propelled to fame was countless. Being discovered by him was like winning the lottery.
This was clearly a golden opportunity to skyrocket to success.
However, Emrys had declined the offer in a decisive manner, an action that made the crowd feel bitter.
What was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them was discarded like a worthless object by Emrys. The disparity between individuals was simply inconceivable.
There were many routes that lead to success, but some had a better head start than others.
This was the reality, an exceptionally brutal one.
At first, everyone was filled with resentment. They resented why such an opportunity didn't fall upon them. They resented Emrys for having such a golden opportunity, yet not cherishing it. However, once they calmed down, they quickly came to terms with it.
The opportunity did not fall upon them not because of others, but due to their own mediocrity. If one failed to stand out in life, one could blame no one but oneself.
As for Emrys giving up the opportunity to play the lead role, it was because, to him, the opportunity meant nothing at all.
Everyone had already witnessed Emrys' skills and realized that he was a martial artist. The strength of a martial artist was evident. There was no need for him to act in order to gain recognition. Moreover, they had heard it loud and clear earlier, Emrys was Sierra's younger brother.
Given Sierra's status in the entertainment industry, the influence of her patron was truly astonishing. Emrys didn't need to do anything except revel in her glory. After all, wouldn't it be amazing to be a major player behind the scenes? Even the most stunning celebrities ultimately found themselves fawning over the influential figures working behind the scenes.
