Chapter 279: Troublesome Characters
??“ By the way, how is the company doing during this time?" It had been a week or two since she came out, and she asked casually.
It's really a casual question, because it's too normal for her boss not to appear in the company for ten and a half days. But she's not her unreliable cheap father, and she doesn't get her time at work taken away by entertainment and fun.
Basically, when she doesn't go to the company, she's either writing scripts or making movies, in short, it's all about movies. It's not an exaggeration to say she's a workaholic.
The reason why she can leave the company to work with confidence is mainly because she knows the work ability of Louise and her subordinates, and believes that there will be no problems with the operation of the company entrusted to them.
What she didn't expect was that it was so casual to ask, but Louise was suffocated.
"What's the matter?" asked Layla in surprise without waiting for her answer.
Louise was a little entangled, it stands to reason that the boss is out on business, she shouldn't talk about the "family" things to give her a headache, but she is very worried that if something happens, she can't afford it.
"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that Roy introduced a friend to the company and hopes that someone from the brokerage department can sign him. ”
It dawned on Leila that Roy had really done what she had suggested.
"I know this, if it's not some troublesome person, let's sign Roy face. "As for whether it will become a star, it doesn't matter, anyway, there are so many movies that the company has started shooting at the same time, and the most important thing is all kinds of roles, are you afraid that you won't be able to give a job after signing it?
"Probably...... What a troublesome character......" Louise smiled wryly on the other end of the phone.
This made Layla even more surprised: "Who the hell did he introduce? Even you find it troublesome?" She knew Louise's abilities very well, and with her connections and abilities in Hollywood for so long, she felt that it was a trouble, how troublesome was she?
"That person you also know, it's the little Robert Downey who fought with Roy last time and entered the police station. Louise had a headache when she thought about it. Bringing such a badly criticized actor into the company, what did Roy think?
"Smack. "Layla's phone fell to the ground. When she hurriedly picked it up, she hurriedly confirmed: "You mean Robert Downey Jr.?
"That's him. Louise took her surprise as much as her own: "I don't deny that man is very talented, but his condition is terrible. Now no one in Hollywood wants to ask him to make movies anymore, and if we sign him, if he makes another incident, I am afraid that it will affect our company's reputation. ”
The company's development to the present can be called a miracle in Hollywood, watching it sink into the mud step by step, and watching it rise step by step, how can she be willing to let this place containing her own hard work be destroyed by a bad actor?
It takes a lot of things to get a good reputation, but a bad reputation is just a stain.
Leila pressed her hand to her chest, a little disbelieving in her good luck: "Has the company already signed him?"
"Not yet, Susan from the Brokers Department has submitted an application, and she thinks Robert Jr. is a worthy candidate. ”
This is also the reason why Louise is entangled, on the one hand, she herself recognizes Robert Jr.'s talent and thinks he has what it takes to become a superstar. But at the same time, his own problems are too many and too serious, so serious that he may die before he grows into a superstar. She can't do which company's future voice to bet on this person's future!
Lyra struggled to suppress her excitement, coughed lightly, and pretended to be calm, "Louise, I know you're worried. But you also have to trust the eyes of the people below. Now that Susan has approved of Robert Downey Jr. and is willing to sign him, let her do it. You must know that our company will get bigger and bigger in the future, and you can't keep an eye on everyone's work all the time. Give the people below more opportunities to call the shots, and you can also see what they really do. ”
Knowing where the future is going, she can naturally say this kind of words in a righteous way. If she were to be replaced by someone with the same conditions but she didn't know at all, she would be like Louise and wouldn't put that kind of person into her company.
But Louise didn't know what she really thought, and she was moved after listening to her words.
"I see. Leila, you're right, we have to give the people below enough freedom. She nodded, a warm feeling of relief rising in her heart. Seeing Reynolds's child grow up like this, she really died without regrets.
After ending the call with Louise, Layla couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart no matter what, and couldn't help but dial Roy's phone again.
As soon as the phone was connected, she shouted, "Roy!"
But what she didn't expect was a sexy and lazy woman's voice on the other end of the phone: "This is Roy's phone, he's not here now, who are you?"
"Where's Roy, and who are you?" the excitement in Lyra's heart suddenly swept away, and the corners of her mouth pursed out of excitement.
"He's in the bathroom, I'm his friend~"
Bathroom?friends?
Lyra's eyes narrowed dangerously. How familiar is the plot, is this a hint that she and Roy are close?
"Who are you talking to? Who's going to touch my phone!" Roy's angry voice faintly came from the other side of the phone, and then a scramble was heard. "I'm Roy Jixing, who is looking for me?"
"I'm Leila Moran. ”
Lyra's voice came to his ears without warning, causing Roy to almost throw his phone out. He cursed in his heart, what a terrible situation!
"Leila, listen to me, things are not what you think!"
"You say, I'm listening. Leila's voice was faint, without the slightest fluctuation, as if it was normal.
Roy's heart also cooled, and it occurred to him that he didn't seem to need to worry about her misunderstanding at all. How can a person who has no love for you at all care about what happened to him?
Thinking of this, he suddenly became disheartened, and he was not even in the mood to explain.
"Forget it, you don't care anyway. Is there anything you want me to do?"
Layla's eyes were half cold again, but her voice was still in that tone: "I just called back to the company, and I heard Louise say that you have introduced your friend to the company?"
"Yes, Susan is interested in him, and she must be negotiating a contract right now. ”
"Since Susan has taken a fancy to him, let him get rid of all his old bad habits. You know I'm not just a director, I'm also the boss of the company, and I can give him a chance, but I can't watch him lead the company into the maelstrom. As soon as I notice any signs of him coming back into prohibited stuff, don't blame me for kicking him out of the company!"
