Chapter 36: Burning with Rage
Chen Jingming couldn't laugh or cry at what I said, and asked me again, so he said to me in a soft tone for a while: "I'm also annoyed that GUCCI temporarily changed the shooting date, but what can I do?" There are many shopping malls where people can choose to set up cabinets, but it is too difficult for us to find the eighth international first-line brand...... Alas! People always have to follow the form...... Zhaoyang, if you want to go higher and farther on the road of the workplace, you must learn the words patience and compromise and keep it firmly in your heart. β
Chen Jingming said this, I am embarrassed to continue to be popular, in fact, he is still a good boss, in the company for more than two years, he has taken a lot of care for me, but I am not very motivated.
I don't want Chen Jingming to be embarrassed, he has his difficulties, and I know the stakes of this matter, I was silent for a long time, and I said to him: "I'll contact her, but the day after tomorrow is the 10th, the time is so tight, can I coordinate the schedule again, I really can't guarantee it this time." β
Chen Jingming rubbed his temples tiredly and said: "Try your best to communicate, tell her: If she can participate in the filming on the 10th, I am personally willing to compensate her with three times the labor cost." β
I was silent again, deeply aware of Chen Jingming's difficulty, this incident, the company's senior management must have exerted a lot of pressure on him, he is different from me, after all, he has achieved this position, and I am at the grassroots level anyway, and it is a big deal to change the company if I am uncomfortable...... Perhaps his helplessness and compromise are the embodiment of the cruelty of the workplace.
β¦β¦
Leaving Chen Jingming's office, I dialed Le Yao's phone in the midst of complicated feelings.
Le Yao didn't seem to have gotten up yet, and after dialing for a long time, she answered the phone in a hazy tone: "Hey, Zhaoyang, why are you calling me now?" β
"Are you still asleep?"
"Well, there were two night scenes last night, and I filmed almost all night, so sleepy!" Le Yao said and yawned again and asked, "Is there something wrong with you calling me?" β
I was a little embarrassed to speak, and I was silent for a long time before I said: "The shooting plan on GUCCI's side has been adjusted, and it has been advanced to the 10th, that is, the day after tomorrow, can you coordinate it again?" β
Le Yao on the other end of the phone was silent, and the silence was enough to prove how difficult it was for her, because she had applied for leave on the 15th with the crew before, so the crew must have adjusted her play, and this adjustment will involve many other actors.
"I'll go to the director now, can I coordinate it, I'll notify you as soon as possible." Le Yao said to me.
"Well, I'm really embarrassed this time!"
Le Yao smiled and said, "What are you talking about, if you can coordinate it, you have to come to Hengdian to pick me up this afternoon, it's too boring to take the train!" β
"No problem."
"Well, then you wait for my news."
After ending the call with Le Yao, I immediately went to the bathroom to smoke a cigarette, feeling panicked in my heart, I knew how bad it was for Le Yao to be a newcomer, and repeatedly asked the crew, but she still agreed to me so readily, I really hope not to cause her any trouble.
At about noon, when I was eating, my mobile phone vibrated and I looked at the text message from Le Yao.
"Zhaoyang, the crew has approved the leave, a total of 3 days, come and pick me up." A smiley face is attached to the text.
I took a deep breath, my nervousness finally eased, and then I sent a message back to Le Yao, and this afternoon I will rush to Hengdian to pick up Le Yao back to Suzhou.
β¦β¦
I went to Chen Jingming's office again to report the situation to him, and he was as relieved as I was, and immediately gave me his car keys, and gave me 2,000 yuan in cash, asking me to invite Le Yao to a meal in Hengdian on his behalf, and then he would entertain him alone when Le Yao returned to Suzhou.
Chen Jingming also told me that the vice president of GUCCI in China will also come to Suzhou on the day of the shooting of the promotional poster to officially sign a contract with our department store to set up a counter, which means that the GUCCI investment promotion plan that the planning department and the investment promotion department have been busy for several months has finally been completed, and the Polaroid department store has officially reached the standard of top department store B, and for me personally, I have been promoted to the head of the planning and copywriting team.
I hope this time it is really a complete and there will be no more accidents.
β¦β¦
After coming out of the office, I immediately drove Chen Jingming's Audi A4 to Hengdian, and when I arrived, it was already more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
The autumn wind blew away the dusk, the sky was completely dark, Le Yao had not yet come out of the set, lit a cigarette, and I habitually looked at the exit of the scenic spot for a while.
Le Yao finally appeared in the light at the exit, her steps were very slow, her right hand covering her cheek, I couldn't quite see her expression clearly.
I got up and walked over to her, and she looked at me, but she wasn't as affectionate as she had been.
I smiled and asked, "Do you have a toothache, why are you covering your face?" β
Le Yao was silent and continued to walk forward, such an abnormal behavior made me full of doubts.
I immediately followed her and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you, let me see your face." β
"It's fine." Le Yao quickened her pace, but her voice was already choked.
I grabbed her, and then forcibly removed her hand covering her cheek, and was shocked for a moment, only to see several bright red fingerprints on her fair face.
I was furious: "Which fool hit you, I'll fucking kill him." As I spoke, I walked towards the entrance of the scenic spot.
Le Yao grabbed me dead behind him: "Zhaoyang, don't go." β
"You get up, I don't smoke him (her), I'm sorry for you." I couldn't control my anger, and I vaguely realized that Le Yao's beating must have something to do with this incident.
After Le Yao was thrown away by me, she sat on the ground and hugged my legs, crying and said, "Zhaoyang, I beg you, don't make trouble...... It didn't do me any good...... There are a lot of people here, so let's go back to the hotel and say. β
I tried my best to control myself, looking at the eyes that had been cast at us around me and gradually calmed down, at this time I ran in and made things bigger than to make Le Yao worse, unless she didn't care about anything and gave up this play, obviously this was completely impossible for her, and at this moment, for Le Yao, all I could do was to be patient.
I helped Le Yao up from the ground, and there was a convulsion in my heart that I couldn't vent my anger, I took out a tissue to help Le Yao wipe away her tears, and said in a soft tone as much as possible: "Let's go back to the hotel first, but you have to make things clear." β
Le Yao nodded, gently grabbed my arm, and walked towards the parking place.
β¦β¦
In the hotel room, Le Yao sat next to me, I used an ice pack to help her cover the red place, my heart was still on fire, I gritted my teeth and asked Le Yao, "Which fool hit you?" Isn't it your director? β
Le Yao shook her head, tears fell down her cheeks again, and she was silent for a long time before she said to me: "It's an actress in our crew...... She said that I was a vixen and hooked the acting, so the director took such good care of me, and helped me arrange the schedule twice, but they didn't have to rest, but I ......"
Le Yao didn't continue, she couldn't cry anymore, and my heart was like being twisted by a knife, I was right, it was indeed my matter that caused Le Yao this trouble, I can't wait to find that actress to help Le Yao slap her back.
"Do they usually bully you like that?"
Le Yao nodded and said, "This circle is very complicated, I'm just a newcomer who just graduated from school, it's normal, Zhaoyang, you don't have to be angry for me." β
"Who's that actress?" I asked with a frown, still wanting to help Le Yao ask for an explanation.
Le Yao shook her head desperately, refusing to sue me if she was alive or dead.
There were bursts of grievance in my heart that I couldn't vent, and I resented myself for letting Le Yao suffer so much grievance.
Le Yao seemed to see through my thoughts, and comforted me softly: "Don't think about it, her beating me will only make me work harder, I will definitely go higher and farther than her, maybe I will have to thank her for this slap I gave me today in the future!" β
I gritted my teeth and sighed, and remembered what Chen Jingming said to me in the morning, yes! Whether in the workplace or in the entertainment industry, we must learn to be patient and compromise, because we who are struggling at the bottom have no capital and rights, if we are impulsive, if we can't restrain ourselves, we can only pay a greater price, so Le Yao desperately stopped me from helping her to explain.
But because of our humility, do we have to live so undignified? Isn't there really a crystal clear "city in the sky" in this world? Can't we go back to the empty city where humanity was first placed?
Who's going to give me the answers?
