Hollywood Zenith

" It was fun! I wish brother was there." Hannah said first. She did make a fuss about it, but Samuel was resolute; it was their family time. His being there would only make things difficult for Aaron, who had extensively prepared for this trip.

" I was surprised why few people showed up at the entrance but when I heard you sent them. I allowed them to take up around the park." Aaron said.

" I just mentioned about you guys. It was them that insisted on it."

" Nonetheless, it helped a lot. Thanks, son." Carol said while rubbing Samuel\'s head. He was much taller than they first met, but she still treated him like a little kid.

" Brother, I have a lot of things to tell you. Look here I also won this as a prize." She wanted to share her experience, but Samuel could see that wandering around for three days took a toll on their bodies.

" Why don\'t you show it to me later? Tonight we have to go to the party right? It would be good to rest."

" Ok, but tomorrow you have to listen to me!"

" alright, alright. I promise. You should also take some rest. I have told them to prepare everything." Samuel motioned toward a few attendants who were waiting at a distance.

Rothschild family had several properties around this area. Beverly Hills, considered a luxury area, was littered with mansions. It would be sinful if they didn\'t have a few compounds here.

" Ok, I will see you tonight."

It has already been a week since they came to Los Angeles, but today Samuel had to visit the crew who had arrived yesterday. The Studio arranged a pricey hotel for them because they had to protect their privacy. Emma and Rupert were also staying there with other fellow actors and actresses.

" Boss, They are here." Steve called out to him.

" Ok let\'s head out."

" It was good that Steve was acting normal again. His sense of duty is broken." Samuel thought. Steve was like a madman for a few weeks; he doubted everything and everyone and followed a strict protocol. It took great convincing from David and his other team member to calm him down.

He noticed a girl standing next to his car.

" Marilyn, I told you to stay here. We have plenty of rooms."

" It is fine. Just thinking about staying with \'others\' gives me chills." She mentioned other Rothschild family members and the Morgan family who were temporarily staying here.

" Ok, if it gets too bothersome, you can tell me."

" Ok boss."

Marilyn had changed a lot; she was personally mentored by Abigail and was beginning to evolve. With a few more years of experience, Samuel was certain he could leave the head of the foundation post to her. It was only a thought at present.

Upon reaching the hotel, Samuel saw Director Columbus again. Columbus was all smiles; everything was going smoothly; how could he not be happy?

The promotion of the film went very smoothly. For this preview, almost all famous Hollywood film critics were invited. For the teaser, reviews from the audience were surprisingly high. They praised the special effects which took blood and sweat to produce.

They went above and beyond and invested heavily. It was not surprising to see the fruit of their labour.

The advancement of movies in other regions is also going very smoothly, so smoothly that Columbus did not expect it.

Europa, Asia Pacific, South America, and North America were all given exclusive slots simultaneously, which is also a precedent. The movie was bound to leave a mark.

Columbus also said that it was all thanks to Samuel. Most theatre groups had given enough face to the Rothschild consortium, which could be seen from the film placement rate of each country.

As soon as Samuel came up, Columbus gave him a warm hug. It was his chicken that laid golden eggs!

Samuel felt weird chills, like someone was eyeing him, but he failed to notice that person. In fact, Columbus didn\'t know the whole situation. The Rothschild family intervened because King Robert was eager to show his existence and nothing more. It was only parental love!

This time for the premiere, all the main actors were present.

Samuel, Emma and Rupert were the main trios for the movie they could never miss. Tom as Harry\'s adversary, Alan as Severus Snape, Richard as Professor Dumbledore and many other Hollywood actors attended.

At noon, all the people gathered in the restaurant of hotel. The Studio also sent a high-level executive to oversee everything. They were tasked with working with the theatre to make the premier a success.

For everyone, tonight\'s premiere and box office numbers were synonymous. At this moment, the studio\'s senior management was still a little nervous. After all, the company could be said to give everything for this movie.

"Everyone, to the popularity of "Harry Potter", let\'s toast!" Columbus stood in the lead, full of spirits.

"For Harry Potter!"

"Harry Potter will win."

"To victory!"

Various auspicious words flooded the restaurant. All the actors were very excited. No one knew "Harry Potter" better than them.

However, today, everyone was very restrained. After all, the evening was the premiere. There was no excessive drinking; they had to be satisfied with rinsing their mouth with alcohol. Even the Director and Producer duo, who loved wine, only drank a glass.

In the afternoon, Samuel, along with others, stayed in the suite. The crew prepared tonight\'s clothing for them. Columbus was also there, casually shifting through various suits.

"Director, I heard you brought some set props, what are you going to do with it?" Samuel asked about what the crew was talking about. The director brought magic wands used on the set for some reason.

"After the premier is over, I plan to auction it off." Columbus shrugged. This was not his idea; the Studio decided on it.

Taking advantage of the popularity, it suited them best to sell it for a high price.

"What? Don\'t auction it, I will accept it. It is a good momento." Samuel really took a fancy to this these props. After all, it was more valuable for him as it was his first movie.

"This, I will discuss with Studio but don\'t get your hopes up. I know you will tuck it away but selling it to the public will add to movie\'s popularity." He couldn\'t make a guarantee, but if Samuel requested it personally, it could sway the Studio\'s decision.

Samuel\'s offer was already very sincere. He was willing to spend enormous amounts of money on a piece of wood.

" Ok, we should discuss it later. You have to do light makeup and some touches because you will be on everyone\'s radar tonight."

" Alright."
