Chapter 154: What is Charity?
"Neither will I." Zhang Yang saw Lu Mengxuan's stern pretty face, and also knew that this bell tone was out of place, so he hurriedly answered the phone after answering.
"Zhang Yang, what time is it, are you still coming?" On the other end of the phone, Feng Yanran's anxious and annoyed voice came.
"Go, I'll be there soon."
"My friends have arrived, so I'm waiting for you." After a slight pause on the other end of the phone, he said, "Lu Mengxuan is not here to shoot, have you talked about it?" β
"What are you talking about?"
Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, quickly covered his mobile phone and continued: "You ask your classmates, how much does it cost to invite a person?" β
He tried his best to be ambiguous in his words, at least not related to the shooting, so as not to stimulate Lu Mengxuan.
And try not to delay things, because the Three Kingdoms Invitational Tournament will start tomorrow, and he also wants to get things done today.
If the promotional video is played synchronously, the effect will be better.
"Don't hang up the phone."
Feng Yanran asked a man on the other end of the phone and said, "If you have a relationship, it's about 600,000." β
"Isn't it cheaper?"
Zhang Yang was a little surprised, it would cost 600,000 yuan to shoot a promotional video, isn't this a money grab? Although the promotional video is fifteen minutes, it is mainly enterprise-oriented
This actor will show up for a few minutes at most, and he actually asks for so much money?
"This is already the price of favors."
"I'll think about it and call you later." After speaking, Zhang Yang was afraid of extraneous branches, so he immediately hung up the phone.
Under the deliberate consideration, the dialogue was perfect and ingenious, without revealing the slightest flaw, and his heart could not help but be full of pride.
"Work-study? Which company do you work with? Lu Mengxuan asked curiously.
"At the Haitian Group."
"Dude, are you in Haitian Group? Do you know Zhang Yang? β
The driver, driving with one hand, asked with an expectant look on his side.
"It's an acquaintance, what's wrong?"
Zhang Yang didn't know how to answer, after all, he didn't know the purpose of the driver, who knew if it was a good thing or a bad thing?
"What does he look like? The newspaper said that it can be suspended, what is the youngest executive manager in Huaxia? also said that he made a decision to sponsor 50 million for the Three Kingdoms Invitational Tournament, is it really fake? β
The taxi industry loves to inquire about gossip, and if you know the inside story, chatting with customers is very good.
Seeing that Zhang Yang didn't answer, the driver continued: "Don't be embarrassed, you know that this matter is unreliable, your company must have issued a gag order, not to let you employees talk nonsense, it is pure hype." β
"This ......" Zhang Yang was speechless, not knowing how to answer.
"Was it Feng Yanran, the school flower of your school, who called you just now? She is also a department manager at Haitian Group? β
"How do you know?"
"She's just studying in your school, and she's so beautiful, it's not news for a long time."
"Well, she's as pretty as you are." Zhang Yang didn't forget to take the opportunity to praise her.
He was so satisfied with this compliment that he felt that it was the most suitable thing for him to say after his clever brain was working fast.
The beauty of the two people has their own characteristics, Lu Mengxuan is sunshine, Feng Yanran is atmospheric, and each has its own merits.
"Did she graduate from Harvard University?"
"Well, it seems to be."
"The endorsement fee of 600,000 is indeed a bit high."
"Not really! Just a few minutes of footage actually cost 600,000 yuan, and said that it was a human price, and she must have eaten a kickback from her friend. β
At the mention of money, Zhang Yang was a little indignant, and at the same time, he thought that this person was actually Feng Yanran's friend, maybe he had some bad intentions towards Feng Yanran, and his heart was full of disgust.
After answering, he was stunned and looked at Lu Mengxuan blankly.
"The Zhang Yang that the driver said just now is you, right?"
"Sort of! I'm not so sure either. Zhang Yang began to feel weak and replied a little incoherently.
"Dude, are you Zhang Yang?"
The driver's eyes were full of surprise, but he didn't expect that he pulled a guest and was still a news figure.
"Big brother, don't you ask? You drive well, nothing does anything to you. β
Zhang Yang pleaded with a man with a wry smile for the first time, and he already faintly felt the prelude to the storm.
"Well, okay, can we take a photo when we get out of the car?"
"Can I offset the taxi fare?"
β¦β¦
The driver didn't say anything more, laughed a few times, turned around and started to drive with peace of mind.
Zhang Yang suddenly had a doubt, his handsome and handsome face couldn't offset the taxi fare of more than ten yuan?
"The executive manager of a listed group company who made a sponsorship fee of 50 million yuan borrowed 5,000 yuan from me?"
With a self-deprecating smile on her face, Lu Mengxuan stretched out her little hand and pulled Zhang Yang's collar and looked at the brand of the suit.
continued: "A man in a suit of more than 20,000 yuan was so embarrassed that he only took out a few dozen yuan to give to the pair of beggars on the flyover? You're too picky, aren't you? β
Her words made Zhang Yang begin to regret it, he thought that he would go to the company today and dress more formally, but he didn't expect her to grab the handle.
"50 million is from the company, and the suit is the company's tooling, and I really don't have any money." Zhang Yang hurriedly explained, but he also felt that no one believed such an explanation.
"You're really good at acting."
β¦β¦
"I hate hypocritical men the most." Lu Mengxuan's eyes flashed with ruthlessness that was completely different from the sunny face.
"Me too." Zhang Yang replied blankly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
When Zhang Yang was still in a daze, Lu Mengxuan suddenly made a move, and a storm of punches and feet fell on him.
It is undeniable that the body coordination of girls who have practiced hip-hop dance is good, and such a small space in the back seat of a taxi can be used with both fists and feet, and the movements are extremely chic.
Zhang Yang held his head in his hands, leaned on the car door pitifully, and let her vent wantonly.
"Stop." Lu Mengxuan was out of breath and shouted angrily.
Chirping!
The driver seemed to be stunned by her fierce scene, and as soon as the words fell, he stomped on the brakes and made a screeching sound.
Fortunately, the car is still driving on the wide road in the suburbs, and there are not many vehicles, otherwise this will definitely cause a rear-end accident.
Lu Mengxuan pulled the car door and walked out.
"Hey, listen to me."
Zhang Yang hurriedly got out of the car and chased after her, grabbing her slender arm.
"Explain what? Charity is a miasma of hypocritical rich people like you, and no one believes it anymore. β
Lu Mengxuan shook off his arm and shouted excitedly.
"Am I hypocritical?"
Zhang Yang grabbed her arm again and said loudly: "What is charity?" How to do charity without money? Is it just your salary? How many children can you save? β
Since she is angry with herself for charity, then use charity to theorize with her.
Zhang Yang is still very confident in his crooked eloquence.
"yes, I don't have as much money as you."
Sure enough, these words had an effect, Lu Mengxuan suddenly stopped, turned around and continued to shout angrily: "What's the use of having money? Show off your wealth every day, buy a jade bracelet of 180,000 yuan, do you know how many children you can save? β
"It's because I can afford to buy 180,000 jade bracelets that I have more money to do charity."
"Shit, you're so brazen, you can make a decision for 50 million as a sponsorship, why don't you make a decision to do charity?"
Lu Mengxuan's foul words came out, showing the anger in his heart, and his distorted pretty face said with disdain and contempt.
"Do you think the company is owned by your family?"
Zhang Yang ignored her attitude and continued: "The 50 million sponsorship of the Three Kingdoms Invitational Tournament is to promote the company, and to put it bluntly, it is also to make money and invest in charity? That's throwing money out for nothing, which boss is willing to agree? β
After a pause, not giving her any chance to contradict herself, she continued, "You think you're doing charity? Buy some coloring books and small toys every day to fool those seriously ill children, so that they can be happy for a short time, and then they will be satisfied? β
"So what? At least I've done my best? β
Lu Mengxuan's angry voice had lowered a lot, and it also let Zhang Yang know that his words had an effect.
For an angry girl, sometimes the more you please and coax her, it is not necessarily useful, but it makes her feel that she is at a loss.
It's better to be angrier than her, which means that she is more wronged in her heart.
"What's the use of trying your best? Can you make a difference for these children? Can you even stop Xinxin's death? β
Zhang Yang pretended to sneer and continued: "You can't, you can't change anything at all, do you know why?" β
"Why?" Lu Mengxuan asked.
After asking, I immediately realized that I was too stupid and naΓ―ve to ask this question.
"It's because you don't have any money."
Zhang Yang said extremely simply, and his eyes were full of tenderness in an instant and continued: "These children need the best medical treatment, do you think they will be ridiculed and discriminated against when they live, but do they die with dignity?" β
His words we've completely shortened the distance with Lu Mengxuan, and it can be said that we are on the same front with her in an instant.
"But many of them are incurable, and living is a kind of torture and pain for them." Lu Mengxuan was already in tears, and his words began to sob.
"We give these children the best medical conditions, which may not save their lives, but it is a respect for life, for these young hearts, for human dignity."
Zhang Yang's words were sonorous and powerful, and he believed that they were enough to shock anyone.
After a pause, he continued: "I know that I deceived you, this is because of my ignorance, after knowing you, I only knew that there are so many poor children, and I have already made up my mind to do charity with you in the orphanage just now. β
"You ......" Lu Mengxuan's face showed doubt.
"This is a bank card, there are 500,000 in it, you can use it to treat the child."
Zhang Yang was really generous this time, and he was really moved by this girl, thinking that his life experience was abandoned by his parents because of the serious illness that the master said, and his heart was also sad.
So making such a move is not impulsive.
"Would you be so generous? It can't be an empty card, right? β
Lu Mengxuan's anger calmed down a lot, although it was questioning, but there was also a mocking tone in his words.
