087 How can I trust him to take care of my money?
Zhou Wangce was completely stunned.
"You are always afraid that Zhou Chenxi will make a little mistake and be hurt a little, so that he has not been able to grow up from his mistakes. You deprive him of the opportunity to make mistakes, and you make him very afraid of making mistakes, but people are bound to make mistakes, and people grow up from the experience of making mistakes. And Zhou Chenxi, who lacked this kind of exercise, could only choose to escape in the end. ā
"The reason why the last movie was so miserable was precisely because Zhou Chenxi couldn't solve any problems he encountered during the filming of the movie. But he doesn't want to ask you for advice, because you will only reprimand him, blame him for not being able to do such a trivial thing, and then take care of it for him. He hates you so much that even if the problems are stacked one after the other, he just chooses to run away, turn a blind eye, pretend that the problem doesn't exist, and won't find a way to solve it. So the end result, you see it too. ā
"With an investment of 750 million, the box office is less than 30 million. This is the biggest mistake Zhou Chenxi made in his life. Mr. Zhou, now you should know, right? When the child is young, you don't let him make mistakes, you protect him, but can you protect him for a lifetime? He will always grow up and will always be out of your control. And at that time, the mistake he made was not a small mistake, but a big mistake, a big mistake that you couldn't hold. ā
"If a child makes a mistake, at most he will break a vase or paint a wall in his house, and then he will steal some money from the family, and that's it. He is still young, he can't make big mistakes, he can only make small mistakes. At this time, if you can guide him correctly, Zhou Chenxi will not be reduced to today's situation where the mud can't support the wall. ā
"So, Mr. Zhou, back to what you most want to discuss with me, about sponsorship. ā
Shen Xiao suddenly changed her words, she picked up the hot black tea on the table, and took a sip gently-
"I can give you a clear answer, if Zhou Chenxi is the producer or director of this film, he will definitely mess things up. He is still a little baby who can't put on clothes when it's cold, and he can't even take care of his own health, how can you make me believe that he can take care of the entire crew, and even take care of the hundreds of millions I handed over to him?"
Shen Xiao put the cup down and looked at Zhou Wangce coldly: "Mr. Zhou, no one's money is blown by the wind." Now, the decision-making power is in Zhou Chenxi's hands. He's willing to step down as an editor, and I'll still sponsor the film. But if he doesn't want to...... Then Mr. Zhou, don't blame me for being ruthless. I'm a businessman, I'm not a babysitter. I'm not obligated to throw my own money at your brother. He's your brother, not mine. I don't care about his life, and I don't care what his dreams are. I only care about my money. ā
After that, Shen Xiao patted the non-existent dust on his legs and said with a smile: "The words have been spoken, then I'll go out first." Mr. Zhou, you are at your own convenience. ā
As soon as Shen Xiao was about to stand up, Zhou Wangce called out to her: "Mr. Shen, please wait a minute!"
Shen Xiao paused and sat back on the sofa.
"Mr. Zhou, is there anything else you want to say?"
"Mr. Shen, I, I probably understand what we did wrong. Zhou Wangce looked at Shen Xiao pleadingly: "I can see that you have studied this aspect, do you think Chenxi can still be saved? Or do you need us to do something so that Chenxi will go on the right track......?" Can you show me the way?"
Shen Xiao was silent for a moment and said, "Zhou Chenxi is almost thirty years old. Once a person is over the age of 12, the core things have all been decided, and it is difficult to make major changes later. So I can't promise you that he'll be able to change it. ā
"That means there is a way, right?!" Zhou Wangce's eyes lit up: "Mr. Shen, no matter how difficult it is, we will work hard, just tell me, how can we correct the situation of Chenxi?"
āā¦ā¦ Leave him alone. ā
"What?"
"You have to tell Zhou Chenxi clearly and make him convinced: from today on, his life will be borne by himself, and you will not do anything for him. Whether he can get sponsorship or not is his business. Whether he can realize his dream or not is his business, and it has nothing to do with you. ā
Zhou Wangce blinked, and blinked again.
"This ...... I can do that. But to do so...... Is that okay?"
"To change Zhou Chenxi, you must first change yourself. You can't worry about him anymore. You have to do it, even if you see a pit in front of you, even if you see Zhou Chenxi and are about to fall into it immediately, you can't pull him. The most you can tell him is: there's a pit ahead. As for whether he listens or not, that's his business. Even if he falls into the pit and breaks his leg, you don't want to save him, let him find a way to climb out on his own, you know?"
āā¦ā¦ IāI'll try ......"
"If you can do it, of course your parents...... If you can do what I said, don't nag Zhou Chenxi, and let him make mistakes, then he may still be saved. But that also depends on whether he has the will to stand up. If a person's bones are not hard enough and he can't stand up on his own, it is useless for others to be in a hurry to find a way. ā
Shen Xiao said, sighed, and stood up.
"Mr. Zhou, I've finished what I need to say. I'll go out first, think about what to do yourself. ā
Shen Xiao opened the door and strode out of the lounge.
Zhou Wangce sat in the empty lounge in a daze, as if his soul was out of his body.
He felt like he had to think about it......
Think about it......
ā»āāā»
After ending the memories of 1 hour ago, Zhou Wangce woke up from his contemplation, looked to his side again, and found that Shen Xiao was gone.
The audition restarted, and Shen Xiao went to the stage to watch.
Zhou Wangce wanted to follow, but when he saw Zhou Chenxi sitting on the edge of the stage, and saw the solemnity and sorrow on his younger brother's face, he hesitated for a long time, and did not follow after all.
He turned around and walked straight out of the studio.
This was not the place he was supposed to be.
It's time for him to go back to the Chu Zhan Group and do what he should do.
āā
The auditions in the afternoon didn't go too well.
Because Zhou Chenxi has been thinking about sponsorship, the arrangement is not good, the topics that the actors get are not suitable for them, and the role arrangements are all weird, which makes people scratch their heads.
Zhou Chenxi completely lost his morning level.
This made many people involuntarily speculate about what his brother said to him behind that curtain that would make him lose his soul so much.
And Shen Xiao and Chu Yunji, who knew the inside story, looked like old gods were there, as if nothing had happened.
So the afternoon audition ended in a mess.
