Chapter 209: The Magician is Absent

Got it, today is the mayor's wife's birthday!

The mayor finally found a little time to celebrate his wife's birthday, and he didn't want to be disturbed.

Because the mayor's wife likes to be lively, she heard that there is a free show at the downtown sports center, so she booked a place as low-key as possible.

However, the media moved when they heard the news, and this made the battle quite big. Secretary Ding came over in advance, just to discuss with the organizer and arrange a position for the mayor and the mayor's wife that is not easy to be disturbed by media reporters.

At the same time, Zhou Tong and Secretary Ding went to the side to talk about the topic of mobilizing donations.

10 million is not a small amount, the company previously invested 20 million for the uninhabited island landscape, and then threw this money to spend is not small.

But Ren Bufan knows that the 10 million is worth spent, and Zhou Tong has her reasons for doing things.

First, the multimedia is there, and it takes the initiative to donate money to support the municipal government and serve the citizens, which can create a good image of a large company. Second, build a good relationship with the municipal government, let the municipal government know that the company fully supports the municipal work and leave a good impression. In the future, tangible or intangible benefits will be harvested, and the total value will definitely exceed 10 million!

On top of that, today itself is a promotional evening for the company. If this 10 million is thrown out, it will detonate various media, and the publicity effect will instantly reach 100 times, 1,000 times or even more!

And now the company just needs popularity, needs more players, 10 million invested in, and the feedback is not as simple as 10 million!

In the end, it is Zhou Tong, she can always think very deeply.

Ren Bufan himself couldn't think of this immediately, and he didn't notice it until she brought it up, so he had to admire her cleverness.

Of course, it takes a boss with a certain amount of measurement and wisdom to tolerate such subordinates, and if they are other people, their subordinates make the decision to donate 10 million privately, and they will definitely not accept it without consulting themselves in advance.

It's no wonder that Zhou Tong couldn't stay in the previous company, even if she did the right thing, she was completely in the interests of the company, and she was really in the middle of things, not necessarily every leader could think about the pros and cons with Ren Bufan in such an instant, and fully support her decision.

Zhou Tong is resolute and resolute, and he will not let go of the opportunity when he seizes it. Secretary Ding was attracted by her donation proposal, and during this time, the municipal funds were indeed spent quickly, and the Ministry of Finance was under great pressure. But what should be done must not be stopped, otherwise it will affect the people of the city.

During this time, the mayor has been trying to find a way to apply to the above to speed up the appropriation, or discuss with the bank what way to borrow some money first, but there has been no progress. It's really when someone sends a pillow when I'm sleepy, of course Secretary Ding attaches importance to it.

After serious discussions, the two sides finally reached a consensus to share some information with each other.

After arranging the exclusive box location for the mayor and the mayor's wife in the evening, which is not easy to be disturbed by the media, Ren Bufan and Zhou Tong sent Secretary Ding and other city government staff away.

"Mr. Ren, there can't be any mistakes in today's performance party!" Looking back, Zhou Tong said seriously, "We must do it well and get it done! I will keep an eye on all the next links, and it would be best if you could help!"

"This is a must!" Ren Bufan also knew the importance, "What do you need me to do, I must fully cooperate!"

"Don't you blame me for donating 10 million without authorization?" Zhou Tong stared at him, "Our company's liquidity will be reduced by half this month, and many plans will be restricted." ”

"The 10 million is worth it, I won't say anything!" Ren Bufan said with a smile, "Besides, the company's affairs are all your headaches anyway, and the limited plan is also something you need to consider, I just look at the results anyway." The result is good, the process doesn't matter!"

"Thank you Mr. Ren for your trust in me!" Zhou Tong was a little moved.

"Let's hurry up and do all the details of the party carefully!"

"Okay, Mr. Ren!"

The two of them began to check the equipment, stage, lighting, and hygiene of the site to ensure that there were no problems. After that, it's important for the actors, and you have to make sure that they rehearse smoothly and don't go wrong during the performance.

The others were okay, but the choir and the students of the conservatory all arrived early and all hurried to the rehearsal, but the magician Mr. Yang Jie never appeared.

Zhou Tong got the news and hurriedly reported to Ren Bufan.

"Contact us immediately to find out what the situation is!"

"The staff has made several phone calls, but no one answered!" Zhou Tong replied, "Could it be that there is something to do temporarily, and the mobile phone is not around?"

"Then fight again, until someone picks up!" Ren Bufan said seriously, "Even if the time is quite free, everyone else is already rehearsing, if he comes late, what if there is a problem with the show at that time?"

"Yes!" Zhou Tong instructed the staff to continue trying to contact Yang Jie.

Half an hour, an hour...... Time passed minute by minute, and at about 15 o'clock in the afternoon, the staff finally got through to the phone of the magician Yang Jie, and only said a few words, and his face was a little solemn.

"What's going on?" Ren Bufan paid special attention to this matter, and immediately came over to ask, "Is it that the magician is not here temporarily?"

"Report to Mr. Ren!" The staff shook his head and replied after hanging up the phone, "Mr. Yang seems to have had a heart attack suddenly and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment." When he called, his family followed him to the emergency room. Fortunately, the people are fine, but they can't come over to perform! The family members only answered the phone when they came home, and they kept saying sorry to us!"

"So that's the case?" Ren Bufan nodded, and hurriedly asked Zhou Tong next to him, "Is there any backup candidate?"

"We have a few magicians in Wuzhou City, but I haven't been in touch before, so I don't know if I can invite them temporarily. Zhou Tong replied, "I'll send someone to contact me immediately!"

The staff were busy and quickly asked for the contact information of several other magicians.

Time flew by until around 16:30, when I finally contacted one of them and quickly asked if I could come and perform.

Ren Bufan stared at the staff the whole time, and when he saw that his face was not good, he immediately asked, "What do you say?"

"Mr. Ren," the staff covered the phone and looked up to reply, "We contacted the magician Jiang You, but he offered 4 times the appearance fee before he was willing to come over on the grounds that he currently had a trip......!"

"How much?" Ren Bufan asked.

"He said it was worth 10,000 yuan a game!" the staff smiled bitterly, "but as far as we know, it's impossible!"

"Mr. Yang is only asking for 300 yuan a game," Zhou Tong whispered in his ear, this person obviously opened his mouth!

"A well-known magician only asks for 300 yuan a game, and he dares to ask for 10,000?" Ren Bufan was speechless.

"Mr. Ren, he said that he is worth 10,000 yuan, 4 times the appearance fee!" Zhou Tong reminded.

"40,000? How dare you mention it!" Ren Bufan frowned, "Have you contacted other magicians?"

"Can't be contacted!" the staff shook their heads, "Mr. Ren, we don't have much time, what should we do?"

"Money is not a problem, but he is simply slaughtering us like pigs when he bids like this!" Ren Bufan felt unhappy, "Isn't it unpleasant to invite him here?

"I heard that it's good, but this person's reputation may be worse!" the staff replied.

"Mr. Ren, if we agree, it will be disrespectful to Mr. Yang!" Zhou Tong reminded in a low voice, "And today's party is to enhance the company's image, and invite a magician with a bad reputation, maybe it will have the opposite effect." In addition, Mr. Yang had a heart attack and temporarily found someone to replace him, if it is really known, we will give Mr. Yang 300 yuan for a game, but spend 40,000 yuan to hire a magician who is not as good as him, and I don't know that Mr. Yang is angry with us for a heart attack. You also know that the media likes to chase after the wind and add fuel to the fire. ”

"Well, you're right!" Ren Bufan nodded.

"Why don't we change the program temporarily?" Zhou Tong said softly, "Let the students of Wuzhou Conservatory of Music perform one more time instead of magic show!"

"But we've been advertising for a day, and the citizens who are going to participate probably know that there is a magic show, and maybe a lot of people are coming for it. Ren Bufan said worriedly, "Also, Secretary Ding seemed to have said that the mayor's wife also likes magic shows?"

"Well, we might be a little pressed for time," Zhou Tong looked at his watch, "I don't know if we can contact other magicians yet." You can't just find someone to fill up the numbers, right?"

"Mr. Ren, Manager Zhou, why don't you spend some money to invite this Jiang You over first?" the staff interjected.

Ren Bufan and Zhou Tong glanced at each other, and then pointed directly at the staff: "Hang up the phone, let him stay cool!"

When the boss spoke, the staff naturally had no objections, and immediately hung up the phone and waited for instructions.

"You guys try to contact other people first and see if you can just find a suitable one!" Ren Bufan said, then turned to Zhou Tong, "Let's study and study again, is there any alternative to solve this problem!"

"Mr. Ren, if we really can't find a magician, we can only change the show temporarily!" Zhou Tong replied, "Although it will have a certain impact, it is better than doing nothing! The show needs a rehearsal, and we have to decide as soon as possible." It is best to contact the magician to temporarily replace Mr. Yang, and the less famous one can also be, and the impact is at least controllable. I still have to prepare with both hands, or I will ask the teachers of the Wuzhou Conservatory of Music first to see if their students can perform an extra performance. ”

"Hurry up!" Ren Bufan took this matter quite seriously, there must be no problems with this party, otherwise it would be harmful to the company! Why is it that the magic teacher and student are sick at this time? It's really a headache!

Ren Bufan had a headache, and Zhou Tong also had a headache: "Okay, Mr. Ren, I'll try to find a way to adjust it." ”
