Chapter 443: Trapped in the Hotel
I originally planned to call it a day in the evening and rush back to the hotel in the city after finishing work, but no one expected the weather to become so bad.
A sandstorm trapped the crew in the desert hotel.
Everyone waited in the lobby of the desert hotel for the dust to pass.
Gradually, everyone felt tired and hungry.
But the crew didn't bring enough supplies at all.
Some people shouted sleepy, others shouted hungry.
Another person asked: "This is a hotel, why can't we go to the room to rest?" I really want to eat something, take a good shower, and get some sleep. ”
The person who said this probably didn't know how expensive a night in a desert hotel was.
"Let's come and see!"
I don't know who shouted that, which caught everyone's attention.
The person who shouted was holding a box of instant noodles in his hand.
The box of instant noodles was probably taken down from the hotel counter.
He pointed out the price sticker on the instant noodle box to everyone, looking like he was making a fuss.
"A box of instant noodles, 500 pieces! One, ten, hundred... it! I thought I was dazzled! A box of instant noodles sells for 500 yuan, how dark is this store?! ”
"I asked just now, turn on the water at their place, and ask for five yuan a cup!"
"A bottle of mineral water sells for two pieces outside, and it costs 50 here!"
More and more people are complaining about the prices that the store sets for the goods.
"Then I want to ask, how much does it cost to stay here for one night?"
"Nine thousand eight! All the rooms here are the same, and there are no private suites. Nine thousand eight is not the price of the room, it is calculated according to the head! ”
As soon as they heard this, everyone complained louder.
He Tang seemed to be surprised, "Now you should know why I asked everyone to gather in the hall, and I repeatedly asked you not to touch the things in this store casually, and don't run around casually." If so many of us stay here for one night, it will cost hundreds of thousands! Comrades, hundreds of thousands! Any idea what the concept is? This is Teacher Jane's salary!! ”
Some people didn't expect, "I'll go, is Teacher Xiao Jane's salary so low?" I thought it started with a few million! ”
"At the level of Teacher Xiao Jian, such a salary is really a conscience price in the industry. In order not to participate in any follow-up promotional activities of the new drama, he really kept his salary very low and very low. He Tang explained two sentences, and suddenly said very happily, "Fortunately, Teacher Xiao Jian didn't come with us." ”
Otherwise, Jianyan would have been trapped here with them.
Suddenly, someone said: "I'm afraid that Teacher Jian's situation is not much better than ours." Didn't Teacher Jane say last night that she and her little assistant were going to pick up stones on the Gobi Desert today? If they're stuck outside, they're in trouble. We finally have a place to avoid it. ”
"It's fine." Ji Yang said, "People have a lot of fun in the mall." There is food and drink that has been more moisturized than ours. ”
He Tang was extremely ashamed: "I'm sorry for everyone..."
He had never been to the north before, so he didn't know how bad the dust would be this season.
"If everyone is thirsty and hungry, we will divide all the food and drink we have in our hands now, and carry this for a while. The dust may soon pass. ”
"The weather forecast says that this dust may not stop until tomorrow night! We shouldn't be stuck here all day! ”
As soon as I heard that the dust would not stop for a while, more and more people panicked in their hearts.
The things they brought together were not enough for so many people to eat in one meal.
Although they have a ready-made shelter at the moment, the prices here are unbelievably high, and they really can't afford it.
The manager of the desert hotel suddenly appeared, and when he saw so many people in the crew crowded in the lobby of the hotel, he suddenly put on a weird face: "Why haven't you left yet?" I'll tell you beforehand, even if you don't stay, you'll have to pay for staying here for one night! ”
It may be that due to the bad weather, everyone's mood is not very good.
Therefore, after the lobby manager finished speaking, someone immediately came up: "We didn't stay in the room, why are we in the hall?" Do you still want to collect money?! ”
"Isn't this place where you stay without a bed, so it's not a room! How narrow is your definition of a room! If you don't want to give money, then I advise you to leave as soon as possible! Our contract is clearly stipulated, and you only have the right to use this place at that fixed time every day. It's almost past that time slot! I'll come back later, if I see that you guys are still not leaving, I will take pictures of all of you and post them on the Internet, and let netizens comment on them! ”
The lobby manager spoke very politely.
Of course, not all the people in the crew are vegetarians.
"Shoot it! Send it! I'm afraid no one will know about your black shop! ”
"That's it! Expose your black shop! ”
The lobby manager did not panic at all, was not afraid at all, and his attitude and momentum became more and more arrogant:
"Come on, come on, see who of us is afraid of! Our shop has been open here for so many years, but it is protected by the local area! Don't think that you don't have to lie down, you can stand in our hotel for free! He took out his phone and looked at the time, "There are still more than forty minutes, so let's take it as an hour!" I'll come back in an hour. If only I could see that you were still here, three thousand for one person! If you don't pay, you will get out of here! ”
There are 3,000 people per person, and there are almost 50 people on the crew's side.
If everyone pays it, it will be hundreds of thousands!
In New Taipei, this is a down payment for a house!
After the manager left a message, he went back to the house to have fun.
Mingwan proposed: "Director He, why don't we send someone to negotiate with the person just now." In any case, the prices here are really outrageous. It costs nine thousand eight to stay one night, and it costs three thousand to stay like this, which is obviously killing people! ”
At this time, everyone has a fire in their hearts.
Ji Yang was fine before, but now the phone is out of battery. He wasn't in a good mood either.
He Tang called a female assistant director to negotiate with the manager.
As a result, the two came back in disgrace.
The lobby manager was not at all approachable.
Someone was so angry that he took pictures of all the goods and prices in the cabinet of the desert hotel.
"I must expose their black shop!"
"It's useless..."He Tang said helplessly, "Do you think no one has exposed it?" Hey, I really regret it, for hundreds of thousands of dollars a night, I can choose a good location in this kind of place to build a similar studio..."
"What's the use of saying such things now, it's better to think of a way, what to do next!" The female assistant director who went with him to lobby the manager before said that she could hear that she was very angry at the moment.
She was in front of the manager just now, and I was afraid that she was not less angry.
He Tang forced himself to calm down.
But even if he calmed down, he couldn't think of a solution to the current predicament.
The sky outside was already dark.
In this case, everyone forced their way into the dust, and the danger index was even higher.
Now we can only hope that the dust will pass as soon as possible.
A few people were lying by the window, watching the bad weather outside.
It was pitch black outside, and nothing could be seen.
Only the whirring wind can be heard.
Yang Hao sent the power bank to Ji Yang, "Teacher Ji, do you want to eat something?" ”
At this time, Yang Hao blamed himself for being intimate. He should have brought something to eat.
However, he decided that even if he was here to pay out of his own pocket, he would also fill Teacher Ji's stomach.
He can still afford instant noodles for 500 yuan.
It should be regarded as atonement for his carelessness.
Ji Yang took the power bank, and then shook his head at Yang Hao, "I'm not hungry." ”
He wasn't in the mood to eat either.
An hour passed quickly.
The manager reappears in the lobby.
"It's time!" He still spoke in such a weird manner, "Everyone, please, either transfer money to me or go out through that door." ”
Three thousand per person!
It's really reluctant!
The manager has already taken out the collection code.
In the crew, there are really people who are hesitant to go over and transfer money to that person.
At this time, if there is a person who goes to transfer money, there will definitely be a second, a third-
There was a small logistics in the crew, and he asked He Tang secretly: "Director He, will the crew reimburse you for the consumption here tonight?" ”
He Tang replied to him coldly: "What do you say!" ”
"Hey! Oops! The man lying by the window suddenly shouted, "There's light outside!" It seems to be - car! There's a car coming! It seems that there is more than one! ”
At this time, who would come to such a ghost place?
The lobby manager, who also seemed to be puzzled, leaned on the side of the bed and looked out for a while.
I really saw the lights flashing.
The light from the headlights is very intense.
Obviously, the car outside is almost at the door of the hotel.
"It can't be like us, because of the dust, you can't leave, right?"
"Silly you! Didn't you see that other people's car, running in the dust! It was a special sand jeep, not to mention shockproof, and the base was very stable! How could it be that you can't get away because of this level of sand! ”
"Seven, eight, nine... Ten cars! ”
Ten sand jeeps, parked in a row in front of the Desert Hotel, very close to the gate.
One after another, people got out of the car.
There was a knock on the door of the hotel.
"Stand back—" He Tang beckoned everyone and went to open the door with another man.
There was so much wind and dust outside, once the door was opened, it was difficult to close it again unless several people worked together.
The door of the hotel opened, and seven or eight people poured in at a hula.
Each of them wore a face cover, a windproof hat and goggles.
At the head was a tall man.
The figure is a little familiar.
There was also a woman next to him who had no figure to pick.
The man took off his scarf and revealed his true form.
Only then did everyone see his strengths-
It turned out to be Xue Rui!
Wouldn't the woman next to him be—
In short!?
When she took off her scarf and goggles, the eyes of the people in front of her couldn't help but widen.
In a nutshell, really!
Ji Yang lined up and stepped forward, gave Xue Rui a big hug, hugged Xue Rui and immediately let go, and then hugged Jian Yan.
"I knew you wouldn't leave me alone~"
In order to divert everyone's attention from Ji Yang and Jian Yan, Xue Rui said: "I borrowed ten cars from my comrades-in-arms, and I couldn't take so many people away at once, so I could only grieve everyone to stay here tonight." ”
Before anyone in the crew could react, the lobby manager popped up: "You have to pay for living here!" ”
Xue Rui looked to his side.
The man beside him, without waiting for him to look over, strode up to the lobby manager, and without saying a word, raised his hand and called him a mouth!
"Pay the money! Pay the money! Pay the money! As soon as he said that, he started to hit it.
The lobby manager was stunned.
He could not see the man who had beaten him, but he could hear his voice.
"Yao... Mr. Yao! ”
The Mr. Yao in his mouth is a leader of the local corps stationed in New Taipei.
This is a big heavyweight.
Even the mayor of New Taipei City had to bow his head in front of him.
The people on the black and white sides know her to everyone.
He would never have thought that the people in this crew could invite Mr. Yao!
What she didn't expect was that the person who invited Mr. Yao was just the bodyguard of a supporting actress in the crew of "Xianlu"!
The manager was beaten, but instead of complaining, he licked his face and smiled, "Mr. Yao, why did you come here in person, just make a call." ”
"How much money do you?" Mr. Yao asked with a cold face.
"No, no, normal trading!" For fear that Mr. Yao would not believe it, the manager repeatedly emphasized, "Really! It's really a normal transaction! I rented the place to them and the price was absolutely reasonable and fair! I really didn't lie to anyone! ”
"You didn't lie to people, so how did you entertain people! This kind of weather makes people crowd here! "Mr. Yao felt that his face was going to be lost by this guy who saw the money!
Especially in front of his old comrades-in-arms!
It seems that the grandson of the old chief is in this crew!
Mr. Yao was angry, and slapped the manager again.
The manager was suddenly enlightened by this slap, "Mr. Yao! I'm going to arrange accommodation for everyone! ”
If he doesn't find something to do for himself, I really don't know how many slaps he will have to take from Mr. Yao!
He used to say to the crew: "Upstairs and downstairs rooms, you can live as you like." Feel free to live Ha~ Eat as much as you like. ”
His attitude at the moment is completely different from before.
Someone paid attention to the question: "Do you still collect money?" ”
"Don't take it, don't take it!" How dare he! "It's free! Gratis! For Mr. Yao's sake, it's all free! ”
Is Mr. Yao so face-saving?!
Mr. Yao asked his men to move the supplies out.
Among the supplies, there are actually two live sheep!
After arranging everything properly, Mr. Yao ran to Xue Rui to ask for credit: "Old Xue, what's the matter, is it okay?" ”
"New Taipei has you in charge, why is it still so messy?" Xue Rui didn't mean to blame Mr. Yao when he said this. He still knows a little about the situation in New Taipei.
It's okay in the city, but after leaving the city, security can't be guaranteed.
It was because he understood that when he learned that the crew was trapped in this desert hotel, he felt that something might be going to happen, so he decided to discuss a solution with Jian Yan.
If it weren't for the old chief's grandson in the crew, he really didn't want to care about this idle business.
To put it bluntly, the rest of the crew is stained with Ji Yang's light.
Although he was the one who was troubled, Mr. Yao was still very embarrassed.
"Lao Xue, it's not like you don't know, the people here are poor and poor, rich and rich, and the polarization is too serious. The people here are all poor and afraid! Xiao Cui's shop, I know it's a little dark..."
"Dark? It's more than a little bit dark, okay! The prices here are generally a hundred times higher than those outside, okay! "Someone in the crew complained to Mr. Yao.
Ordinary people want to talk to Mr. Yao in this tone, and Mr. Yao has already slapped the lobby manager surnamed Cui.
But who let the person who spoke be the companion of an old comrade-in-arms!
Mr. Yao saved a little face, but Xue Rui glared at the person who spoke unceremoniously.
"Can't even say thank you!"
What a help to a bunch of white-eyed wolves!
It's better to leave them to fend for themselves!
