BXBX NOVEL Chapter 45: The Commercial
Although Arnold\'s attention wasn\'t focused on the room\'s appearance, he was directly looking at Matthew as he approached him from the entrance door.
"Good day, Max Fury! It\'s so good to see you!" Matthew whispered as he stood up from the couch he was sitting, on and walked towards Arnold.
"It\'s my pleasure, Matthew Bridges. I have heard about your wonderful performance in Legacy Pro Wrestling. It\'s awesome," Arnold smiled and said.
"Hey, common. There\'s no way my news could be higher than yours. You are trending everywhere due to your incredible performance!" Matthew said, stopping Arnold from flattering him.
"Why not take a seat?" Matthew sat and said. Arnold only nodded and sat down on the couch facing Matthew oppositely. "Well... Have you been told about the rewards we could have if there are good sales?"
Matthew asked.
"Of course, yeah. I am aware of them," Arnold replied casually.
Then suddenly, Matthew stood up from the couch he was sitting on and approached Arnold. His face was suddenly turning cold and grim, with a glint of uncertainty enveloping his eyes.
"What do you think, Max? How is it possible for the company to sell a million tires in a month?! How is it even possible to get five million sales in three months when we aren\'t top wrestlers yet?" Matthew was visibly panicking.
At that moment, his expression almost made Arnold burst into laughter, but he held on to himself and maintained a serious look on his face.
"Uh... Actually. It doesn\'t only depend on our popularity to achieve that. If the quality of the tires is good, then that should add to its exposure."
"We can\'t just rely only on our fame. Trust me, even if we are the best stars in the top shows, there wouldn\'t be a huge sale if the quality is bad," Arnold explained.
"But... That\'s not what I mean," Matthew objected frustratingly.
"I know what you mean," and sighed softly. "You and I know that Horny Tyres are one of the best tire production companies in Illinois. With our little fame around the city and the quality they can offer, I believe we can achieve that goal..."
"We could even surpass them," Arnold spoke with a smile of belief.
Suddenly, he was feeling this flow of success, driving his mind far from doubt. This was the first time Arnold had felt his mind in a calm cage of certainty. Somehow, he find himself believing that they could even surpass the goal in double fold.
Perhaps... More and more.
Matthew could not help but nod as he saw the confident look on Arnold\'s face. While he felt his heart beating hard, fearing that he could see a golden opportunity fade in his eyes, Max Fury was smiling and had some beliefs in his mind.
At that point, Matthew, the twenty-seven-year-old man with short black hair and dark eyes, decided to stop doubting. He guessed it could happen if he kept having doubts... At least, if he tried to cause some waves of certainty into his mind, it would be better than having a gradually shattering heart even before the commencing of the commercial.
After a few hours, some company officials met them in the room and informed them about the completed preparation of the commercial.
Arnold and Matthew stood up and left for the space area which would be used for the commercial shooting. As it was a tire production company\'s commercial, they would need a car and a wide space with road lanes.
Fortunately, the company already got all these prepared and taken care of. Arnold and Matthew only needed to act as the advertising characters and that\'s all.
Before they commenced the commercial, they were given what to say and do. Unfortunately for Arnold, he couldn\'t drive a car and was to sit next to Matthew in the front.
Fortunately, Matthew was someone who came from a middle-class family. His father had a Mercedes Benz car and had taught him how to drive.
The commercial would be a scene where the Range Rover Evoque and Vogue would be using a different tire. While on a long journey, the tire would suddenly get faulty, leaving them frustrated. However, Arnold would then bring out the new Horny Tyre for Range Rover Evoque and Vogue from the boot, and hand it over to Matthew, who would be acting as the owner of the car.
It didn\'t take long before they were done with the preparation and practices of their roles. Soon, the commercial began and it only took a few hours before all things were done.
Arnold repeated his dialogue only once, but Matthew who turned out not to be bold enough repeated his dialogue and acting combined seven times.
Thanks to the fact that there were directors... It helped them not to slack too much. With everything done after a while, Arnold and Matthew returned to the room prepared for them to rest.
The management sent some pictures of welfare officials to deliver lunch to them. Matthew\'s face seemed to have gained some life after Arnold\'s advice, and he was visibly having a good time after the shooting.
This time, Arnold sighed and spoke.
"Please, friend. I want you to teach me how to drive a car," Arnold said politely and pleasingly.
Matthew raised his head, well, the smile on his face was never evicted, keeping Arnold\'s mind at rest.
"Sure, I will reach. Before we leave!" He said excitedly as if he was going to gain benefits from it.
"You know, we are friends. So why should I refuse?"
Hearing this, Arnold became excited.
