Chapter 946: Sorry, I'm leaving
"You've got a way!" Leila gave him an angry look.
"I'll let you change places, but you don't want to!"
"Do you know how much more budget will be made by changing places?" If you change it casually, what you will change is not tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but tens of millions of dollars! Could it be that her money is blown by the wind?
Xiao Xiao shrugged: "Then I can't help it." In short, I have already told you the gravity of the matter, as long as Roy and Leonardo step off the plane and stand on South African soil, their safety will not be guaranteed! ”
Leila frowned and told him to go back and prepare first, and then fell into deep thought.
If things turned out to be as he said, she wouldn't be able to guarantee everyone's safety, even if she brought a lot of bodyguards. She would rather not make that movie than joke about their safety.
So she had to figure it out.
Leila didn't doubt Xiao Xi's words. She knew he wouldn't coax himself in such a place. It wasn't that she believed in his loyalty to her, but she knew it wouldn't do him any good.
In this world where interests are at the forefront, she has long understood that no one will do anything that is not beneficial. Even if a mentally ill person hurts others for no reason, isn't it for the pleasure of his own heart?
And her ability to see people is not random, from the fact that Xiao Xiao can see through no matter what she looks like, no matter how seamless her makeup is, you can see how powerful her ability to recognize people is.
In fact, she was not so powerful in her previous life, and her sixth sense may be much stronger in this life, what is a person's heart, what is in her heart, and whether her eyes are kind or malicious, she can always tell at a glance. I don't know if it's her golden finger?
To find out more, she called both Roy and Leonardo over in a phone call.
"I want to know what the hell you've encountered in South Africa. After the two arrived, Leila reminded them in a serious tone not to try to fool her.
Roy was stunned at first, but she didn't expect her to suddenly ask about the incident after so long. With her character, she has never been a person who can turn over old accounts, so why did she suddenly talk about it?
"Is something wrong?" was the only possibility he could think of.
Leila didn't answer, but a pair of ice-blue eyes roamed the faces of the two: "Answer my words first." ”
Leonardo felt a little chilly in his back, and his whole body was frozen when he was stared at by her eyes, as if he had been pierced by an ice arrow. Anyway, it didn't have anything to do with him last time......
So he cheekily took a half step back, and then pretended to be "I'm a little grass, none of you can see me", trying to hide himself behind Roy.
He's smart, and Layla definitely cares more about Roy's situation between him and Roy. It's not just the relationship between them, but also because the diamond matter has a direct connection with him, and you should be able to get first-hand information from him.
In this way, Lyra's cold swishing eyes were all on Roy alone.
However, the ice-like eyes in Leonardo's eyes turned into concern for himself in Roy's eyes, and the "beauty" in his heart immediately rose several sweetnesses.
"Actually......" He knew she must have brought it up again because of what had happened, but he still didn't want her to know about his situation. Even if it had been so long, he didn't want her to feel afraid, and he didn't want her to worry about her safety every time she went out.
He understands the feeling of caring for a person too well, and he can't let her do this. But he wouldn't make up some lies to fool her, so he decided to tell some of the downplayed episodes lightly in a less frightening way.
"At that time, I went to several countries and didn't find a diamond that I was satisfied with, so Leo said that he knew someone in South Africa, so I went with him to see it. Then, with the help of an intermediary, I finally bought a satisfactory one from a person. It's just that I didn't expect that person to steal it, and then it was discovered. It's still time for Xiao Xiao to appear, otherwise we may really be in big trouble. ”
If Leila hadn't heard the real version of what happened from Xiao Xiao before, she might have really been fooled by him by just listening to his bland narration.
Did he lie? No, he was telling the truth, but there were some things that were not said, and some things were handled by art.
How could Leila not know what he meant by saying this?
"You're really ......" She stood up and took two steps, paused, and took two more steps before looking at him and Leonardo, who was hiding behind and pretending to be dead, "Leo, have you forgotten where the movie is set this time?"
"Isn't it in South Africa?" Before the words fell, he had already jumped up, and he didn't care about pretending to be dead, and his face suddenly changed color: "Oh, Shet! Do you want to go back to that hellish place?"
The corners of Leila's eyes twitched, you haven't even studied where to shoot, and you dare to say that you have been studying the script for several years?
"That's right! that's the place you managed to leave. You don't need me to remind you of what you were doing there, do you? Are you sure you'll be able to make the film smoothly after you get on the land over there? You should know that it's impossible for the film to be made within a few months. And we won't be a few people in the past, there are so many people up and down the crew, do you want them to go on adventures with you?"
"I'm sorry, Leo, I'm quitting this shoot. And I would advise you that it would be better not to set foot on that land again. "Leila knows that there are many other parts of the world that are full of dangers, even in the United States. But here she can still use money to solve everything, and rushing out money in that country will only make things worse.
"Then how can it be done!" Leonardo was directly anxious: "Leila, we have all agreed, signed a contract, and revised the script together, we have a very happy cooperation, how can we back down for such a small thing?"
Leila shook her head, "I can't gamble with the lives of those under me. Yes, I love the story of "Blood Diamond" and am very optimistic about it, but that is not a reason for me to have to shoot it, and it is not a reason for me to put the crew in danger. ”
And the most important thing she didn't say was that if she went, Roy would definitely follow. She can't test the security of that country with his security! She doesn't know much about South Africa, she only knows that they will be doing well in the future. But she won't forget that it's still 2008, and she doesn't know whether that country has become "very good" or not.
