46 Sofia Coppola (1/2)
The obvious lie earns you another punch, harder this time.
”Alright. Are we all going to stand here, watching me being her punching bag or are we going to watch the movie?”
You question while rubbing your arm.
The gesture earns chuckles from the guys and some sympathy from the girls, including Jennifer.
Sofia, on the other hand, smirks devilishly.
Despite her size, her punches really hurt. You can fathom why since the System measures her Strength at 13.5 – as much as an athletic.
The highest Strength value you have ever seen is 22.9, just shy of 23.
That number belongs to a huge body builder, showing off to girls at the beach.
The guy must be on a lot of steroid to have that much strength.
Attributes like Strength, Endurance, and Dexterity is the easiest to increase through physical trainings and supplements. It mainly takes time.
You group them all as physical type, including Constitution, which is hardest to train physically.
This is because Constitution relates to the longevity and vitality of a person.
Those with a very high Constitution value will rarely get sick or ill.
They can take a lot of physical beating as well.
As for Sofia, her Constitution is also very high. It is sitting nicely at 15 points.
Hence, that explains why she has never been sick in bed for more than a single day.
It also explains why fighting with her is pointless.
You first met Sofia from way back.
It was during your childhood.
But unlike you, Sofia has many opportunities in life.
She became an actress when she was just an infant, playing the baptism scene of the critical acclaimed movie The Godfather – a movie directed by her father.
Since then, Sofia has acted in many more movies directed by her father.
The public and critics didn't like that because it is evidently nepotism. A lot of negative reviews is also attributed to this fact.
You couldn't blame them.
To be honest, her acting skill is subpar.
It is rated at C-minus by the System.
Even if that is the case, Sofia becomes a well-known celebrity before she was even twenty thanked to her family connection.
Noted that you use the word ”celebrity” here instead of star.
Stars are those with talents.
Celebrities are those that is famous for one thing or another.
As for idols, they are in a category of their own.
You have a grand plan to create idols, using everything you have learned from your previous life.
You just need some funding to get started.
Alright, a lot of funding.
It is very expensive to train an idol, but that is for another time.
Right now, you are interested in raising one star – Jennifer Aniston.
The world is unfair.
You already know that.
Everyone agreed to your suggestion as the movie should be starting soon. However, before everyone did, another round of introduction was in order.
”This is Jennifer Aniston. She is an actress like you. She got just the right look and ability to be casted as the main heroine for my movie.”
You decide to introduce Jennifer to Sofia.
”Nice to meet you, Miss Coppola. My name is Jennifer Aniston.”
Jennifer takes the cue.
Sofia scans Jennifer up and down, making the latter feels rather embarrassed.
”Nice to meet you too.”
Sofia returns the greeting before turning her attention back to you. She wraps her hands around your arm and use your shoulder as support.
Everyone takes note of this, some more than others.
Nothing can compare to a woman's jealousy.
Well, two women's jealousy is greater than one.
”Seriously. How did you become a director? You can tell me, pretty please?”
You roll your eyes, knowing that Sofia will pester you until you give her a straight answer.
”I got it because I wrote the screenplay, and uncle George believes that only the person who write the script can truly direct the movie and bringing the script to life, alright?”
