Chapter 514: Feng Daran's phone call
Chuck's words actually represent the voices of the crew, and Nickerson understands and understands their thoughts. If it were him, he would do the same, after all, before the contract was officially signed, they all had the right to know what their salary was, so Nickerson also decided to get to the bottom of it.
"I can understand, huh, Chuck? Your name is Chuck? Nickerson said slowly, thinking about how to talk to him about it.
"Yes, sir!" Chuck looked at Nickerson with some nervousness.
Nickerson nodded and smiled, "Relax, young man, what you said is not wrong at all, I can sue you for your salary, and I don't need you to keep it a secret, I just want you to know how we will treat our crew." Well, you're going to get this figure, seventy-five thousand dollars, which is not a low salary! ”
"Yes, sir, that's not low." Chuck's face turned red, yes, where is the average crew member treated like this? The salaries of the best regional crew members in the United States now are only about $50,000.
"Yes, seventy-five thousand dollars a year, I'll write it into the contract, don't worry about that, but ...... I still have to remind you or the other crew members, I think they asked you to come, it's okay, help me sue them, the corresponding salary must abide by the corresponding rules, the contract is very clear, I don't want anyone to be able to break it! Once they violated, I promise, he will be kicked off the yacht! ”
Nickerson nodded with satisfaction as he listened to his words with Chuck's serious expression.
"You know, with such an annual salary, you want to find an experienced crew member. It was an easy thing to do, and I think a lot of people would fight to do it. Do you understand what I mean? ”
"Yes, sir. I understand! Chuck smiled, such a good salary, a fool can do those stupid things, not to mention that the terms formulated are not harsh, he has seen a much harsher contract, and the salary is not at the same level, so his expression is full of joy.
"Nope. You should call me Captain now! Nickerson smiled and nodded, "You're good to go!" So be it! ”
"Yes Captain!" Chuck grinned and gave Nexon an American military salute before leaving the captain's office happily. Soon after he left, cheers rang out from the deck, and it was clear that the crew outside were also impressed by the paycheck.
Harsh conditions are not a problem. Such a salary. Still working on a yacht, relatively speaking, it is much more comfortable, and they are really happy for this generous employer.
Zhen Fan didn't care about these things, and these things shouldn't be his worries. Nickerson talked to him on the phone and told him that he didn't have to go to Long Beach tomorrow, he would drive the yacht to Los Angeles, find a dock to dock, and then Zhen Fan could board the ship directly from Los Angeles. You can go wherever you want.
"Helena, help me inform Anne that tomorrow we will go to sea." Zhen Fan said to Helena, who was learning to cook Chinese food. "Let's go to sea."
"Zhen, I'm afraid it's not good!" Helena raised her objection, "It's all working hours now, and it's a matter of integrity to postpone work for no reason." I think I'm supposed to go on a day off so Claire has time, right? Helena looked at Zhen Fan with some embarrassment.
That's the way it is, now there are three days left before Friday's time, Zhen Fan patted his head in annoyance, obviously he only cares about his own feelings, he is a free person, not restricted by working hours, and it is not realistic to invite those guys from the team to eat, drink and have fun, they have their own things.
Maybe he should also find something to do, he always stays at home like this, and he is comfortable, but he is always idle, so he also regrets his original decision. But he doesn't want to trouble Sampson, Tang Shaoyang and Mia now, because their work is already on the right track, and if he intervenes, it may bring them some trouble, and it is naturally a good thing to sit and collect money, but it is not necessarily a good thing to be too idle.
"You can plan a trip around the world!" Helena seemed to see through Zhen Fan's thoughts, and said very demagogically, "Drive your yacht and take a trip around the world, I believe it will be a very good experience." ”
I have to say that Helena's words made Zhen Fan very tempted, and Christine is coming back soon, driving her own yacht and sailing around the world with her lover, which will be a great experience.
"I'll think about it!" Zhen Fan nodded.
At this time, the mobile phone rang, Helena took it from the table and saw that it was the number of someone she didn't know, so she handed the phone to Zhen Fan: "I don't know who it is, it says ...... Feng, who is that? ”
"A friend of China!" Zhen Fan turned out to be a mobile phone, and he was a little puzzled in his heart, why did Feng Daran remember to call himself? Because he has been separated from Feng Daran for a long time, he usually just sends an email to greet him, and he doesn't know what's going on when he calls today.
"Director Feng, hello, I haven't seen each other for a long time, I really miss it!" Zhen Fan laughed and said, "Okay, I know you won't call me for no reason, let's say, what's the matter?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I arrived in Los Angeles last night, and I remembered your old friend, so I couldn't help but call you, do you have time? Can we meet? The sound of Feng Daran laughing came from there.
"No problem, I have time to meet, I have an idea, do you want to listen to Director Feng?" Zhen Fan said.
"Say, I'm listening!" Feng Daran hurriedly said.
"Well, I bought a yacht and I'm going to be coming to Los Angeles tomorrow from Long Beach, and I'm going to sign contracts for those hired employees, so ...... I'll go to your hotel tomorrow first, and then we'll go to the dock in Los Angeles together, and we'll go fishing together! What do you think? ”
"That's great, I've always wanted to fish in the waters of Los Angeles, I didn't expect you to really enjoy it, dude, okay, no problem, but...... I have a few companions here, would you like to bring them along? They are all well-known actors and producers in China, and they have come to negotiate film cooperation projects with me this time. That's right...... I heard"
"No problem, by the way, Liu Yifei seems to have arrived in Los Angeles too, do you want to contact us? I saw you had a great time talking last time. What do you think? ”
Liu Yifei? Zhen Fan hasn't seen her for a long time, the last time they met was because of when they bought gifts, and since that time, they haven't met her again, and they haven't even had a phone call or text message.
"No problem at all, I haven't seen her in a long time, you call the shots!" Zhen Fan agreed. The two of them chatted a few more words, and then said goodbye. When I hung up the phone, I saw Helena looking at her with a smile.
"Do you understand Chinese?" Zhen Fan looked at her smile. I couldn't help but ask.
"I don't understand!" Helena smiled and said, "But knowing that you must have made arrangements tomorrow, are you going out on a yacht with your friends?" ”
"Of course, that's right. A friend of mine came from China. So I wanted to invite him to the yacht! Zhen Fan smiled, "So...... I would like to invite you along. ”
"Can I go and study Chinese medicine with Mia tomorrow?" Helena actually shook her head, "Although we can talk about it every day when she gets off work, but ...... After all, this takes up a lot of her rest time. I didn't want to delay her too much, so I wanted to go to the clinic to help out so that I could have more learning opportunities! ”
"Well, that's up to you." Zhen Fan is not reluctant, and it is also a very important thing for Helena to learn Chinese medicine as well as possible. In this way, I can open a clinic again, for the future to open a pharmaceutical company. It will be of great help, "By the way, in two years, I will open a separate clinic for you, so ...... You're going to do the best work! ”
"Really?" Helena exclaimed in surprise.
"Of course, when did I lie to you?" Zhen Fan shrugged his shoulders, "I've always thought about it like this, since you decided to study medicine with me to learn Chinese Taoism, I've thought about it like this." ”
"Thank you, Zhen!" Helena couldn't help but be excited, ran over, hugged Zhen Fan and kissed Zhen Fan's face, and then wiped the lipstick marks off Zhen Fan's face with a smile, "Don't let Mia see it!" ”
"What's the matter with Mia?" Zhen Fan just felt Helena's chest squeezing on his chest, and as soon as he touched it, he heard Helena's words.
"You know, even a blind man can see what Mia is thinking. Only you can't see it, can you? Examine! Helena winked at Zhen Fan slyly and laughed, "I'm going to clean up the study, and when Olivia comes home, I have to give her a tidy study."
As she spoke, Helena twisted her waist and quickly slipped into the study, not giving Zhen Fan a chance to defend herself at all, leaving Zhen Fan alone in the hall with a helpless wry smile.
In the afternoon, Mia came home from work, and Zhen Fan also asked the same thing, inviting her to participate in tomorrow's yacht going out to sea for fishing, but Mia was also refused. Now he was left alone, depressed, and went to bed at nine o'clock in the evening.
Early the next morning, it was Helena who made breakfast, obviously her skills were not as good as Olivia, let alone Mia, and the noodles she learned to cook by Olivia had become rice cereal, looking at the masterpiece on the table, her face was red, and she looked at Zhen Fan and Mia embarrassedly.
"Anyone would do this for the first time!" Mia comforted her.
"This is the third time!" Helena said embarrassedly, "I secretly learned to do it in books, and I have done it twice, and this is the third time!" I didn't expect it to be like this, I knew that if I wasn't too stupid, or that Chinese food was too complicated! ”
This is a self-justification. Zhen Fan smiled dumbly and smiled at Helena: "Chinese food has always been very simple. ”
"Zhen, don't be kidding." Mia glared at Zhen Fan dissatisfied, and then comforted Helena and smiled, "You know him, that's it, he's a good person!" ”
Helena looked at Mia in surprise, then laughed, "You think I'm angry?" No, how could I? He is my master, I have to listen to him unconditionally, even if he deliberately makes things difficult, I have to listen, this is the rule of Chinese master and apprentice, I know, I have seen movies. ”
Zhen Fan felt speechless, the movie really teaches bad guys. However, he still looked like he was eating with relish, so as to comfort Helena's heart and give her the confidence to try a few more times. (To be continued......)
