Ninety-Eight: The End of a Hero
After school on this day, Su Zhen was still picked up by Ruolan by car, in fact, since Su Zhen came back, he changed from the habit of taking the school bus to school in the past, to be picked up by Ruolan, because Su Zhen was exposed from the identity of the Twilight author, and after showing his face on Oscar night, he became the star of the whole school, every day when he goes to school, he can find a large stack of love letters in the desk, and he is surrounded by a group of girls on the school bus after school, which makes Su Zhen a little annoyed, and it is a good thing that there are many girls, but too many sisters are troublesome, Especially with a bunch of women chattering in your ear all the time, it feels horrible.
As Su Zhen's girlfriend, Lux should have been annoyed or jealous about this, but in fact, Lux was not only not annoyed, but felt quite proud of it.
Su Zhen asked her, "Aren't you afraid that I will be robbed?" ”
Lux's answer is classic: "You've had a fine French dinner, would you still go for a hot dog on the side of the road?" ”
Su Zhen thought for a while, and replied seriously, "Occasionally, I will change the taste and taste it." ”
Lux raised her eyebrows, "Isn't that the end, both horizontally and vertically will come out to steal fish, I'm worried that it will be useful?" Besides, what rich man doesn't steal? Even a nice gentleman like Bill Gates has a mistress, let alone someone like you who often messes around in Hollywood, not to mention that I'm just your 'girlfriend'."
Su Zhen was speechless, of course he knew what Dao Lux said, the United States recently exposed two peach-colored door incidents, and the male protagonists of both incidents were surnamed Bill, one was the Bill Clinton zipper door incident that was the president of the United States at the time, and the other was Bill Gates, the richest man in the United States, just like Clinton almost lost his presidency, Bill Gates also paid a heavy price for his romance, and his mistress Stefani personally appeared in court to testify against Microsoft's monopoly, which almost led to the split of Microsoft Corporation, although the company was ultimately saved, But it also paid a heavy price of nearly $8 billion.
Su Zhen will never be in front of Lux again, and his relationship with Lux has not been hidden from Ruolan, as a life assistant, the time spent together in the future will naturally be very long, so it is inevitable that the other party will contact some of the privacy of his life, so Su Zhen does not hide it.
"Parking" Just as the car drove through the town, Su Zhen inadvertently swept the person who was munching on a hot dog on the side of the road, so he asked Ruolan to stop the car, Ruolan was a little strange, but she still complied.
The man was looking at a recruitment announcement on the front, Su Zhen walked up to the man and asked, "Are you looking for a job?" Aren't you a bank security guard? ”
The man turned around, it was Mark who was in the bank that made a big show and subdued the two gangsters that day, but he didn't have any image of Su Zhen, and asked suspiciously, "Are you?" ”
Su Zhen smiled, "You can call me Su, I was there on the day of the bank robbery, what's going on?" As he spoke, he gestured to the resume in his hand.
Mark sighed, "Hey, don't mention it, it's not that foolish hero."
It is said that after Mark was called to the manager's office by the manager that day, the manager handed him an envelope, and Mark's envelope was not the bonus he imagined, but a pink pinkslip, which literally means a pink note, and the pink note in the workplace in the United States only represents one meaning, a notice of dismissal.
Mark was a little incredulous, and after reading the contents of the paper, it was indeed a notice of dismissal.
"What is this for? Is it because of yesterday's incident? Mark asked the manager, who nodded.
Mark angrily asked, "I risked my life to subdue the bandits, and this is also the reason to fire me?" ”
The manager did not show any unusual emotions because of Mark's anger, but explained very calmly, "That's right, your work rules clearly state that in case of emergency, you should call the police in time, not be a hero, you have no responsibility and obligation to catch gangsters, what you have done has violated the bank's work rules, we must fire you."
Mark was very unconvinced, "But I not only caught the gangsters, but also protected the bank's property, so the bank didn't consider this?" ”
The manager shook his head, "You are wrong, the purpose of the gangster is to rob the money, let him rob it, and there will naturally be the police to solve the case and recover the money afterwards." And the bank is insured, except for the fact that the insurance company will accompany you, the bank will not have any loss, but what you have done has put all the customers in the hall in danger, can you guarantee that you will not miss? What if you miss and the gangsters shoot and commit murder? As long as any customer is shot by a gangster in this situation, the bank will be responsible for it, and will also face huge claims from the customer's family, if all this happens, do you think you helped the bank or hurt the bank? ”
Mark was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that there was such a doorway here, and his face suddenly turned red, yes, the United States is such a realistic country, although the American people greatly worship individual heroism, so they have created the most superheroes in the world. However, such a country that greatly admires individualistic heroes is extremely realistic in life, and neither official nor non-governmental organizations advocate the idea of individual heroism, and even the result of being a hero is often very tragic.
The manager looked at Mark's blushing face, shook his head, and said in a slow tone, "Of course, I can understand you personally, after all, your intentions are good, so I will intercede with you at the high-level meeting in the morning." Originally, according to the articles of association, the above was ready to fire you, but under my persuasion, I made a concession and fired you instead, so that you can also receive a severance pay, and you can also receive unemployment benefits from the government during the job search, I can only do this step for you, if you agree, go to the personnel department to go through the formalities, of course, you have to sign some documents to give up all attempts to sue the bank because you are dissatisfied with being fired, of course, you can also decide to sign these documents, in that case the bank will still fire you in accordance with the regulations, You also have the right to file a lawsuit in court, and you take the idea yourself. ”
Saying that, he stood up, walked up to Mark and patted him on the shoulder, "I personally suggest that you still accept the bank's conditions, after all, the bank has a good reason for firing you this time, even if you appeal, the chances of winning are not very good" and then left the office.
Although Mark was very angry in his heart, he also understood that the matter was irreparable, and after thinking for a long time, he had to reluctantly accept the bank's conditions and get up to go to the personnel department to go through the procedures.
"Do you think I'm doing something wrong?" When Mark told Su Zhen all the ins and outs, he asked Su Zhen.
Su Zhen didn't know how to answer, from a personal standpoint, he was on Mark's side, but if you think about it carefully, the bank is from the perspective of its own interests, and its approach is not wrong, so it is difficult to define whether this thing is right or wrong, if this is easy to do in China, Mark will definitely be erected as a heroic model, but unfortunately this is in the United States. After the worst, Su Zhen could only say, "Everything has two sides, as long as you feel that you have a clear conscience, then it's okay."
"Do you have a clear conscience?" Mark muttered, but then laughed at himself, "What's the use of having a clear conscience when you lose your job."
"So you don't have a job right now, do you?" Su Zhen asked. Seeing that the other party nodded, he said: "I need a driver and bodyguard, with an annual salary of 50,000 yuan, do you want to do it?" ”
