"Where are you? I came to you, I couldn't tell you on the phone. Su Xiaoyu said on the phone.

"I'm in the company."

"You send me the address, and I'll be right over."

"Liu Xiaofei is talking about cooperation with Ah Piao, aren't you coming?"

"Since she's here, it couldn't be better." Su Xiaoyu is still worried that he can't find a chance to talk to Liu Xiaofei, since they are here, then take this opportunity to have a good talk.

Hanging up the phone, it didn't take long for Su Xiaoyu to arrive at the branch set up by Xun Yaozhihua in Los Angeles, USA.

Not long after Xun Yaohua's current activities in the United States began, he only rented a small office in the office building. The only employees in the company's Los Angeles branch are Xiao Wang, the secretary, Tang Mei, who was abandoned in New York and took a vacation by the way, and Yao Yue, the assistant who has not yet come to work. Including Ah Piao, there are only four people working here, which is particularly cold compared to the situation in the Chinese headquarters.

After Su Xiaoyu arrived, Ah Piao was meeting Liu Xiaofei, and he had no time to receive him, so he could only receive him in person by Zhao Ruozhi.

"Why is this place so deserted?"

Zhao Ruozhi made a cup of tea for Su Xiaoyu and said: "Coming to the United States to develop is just an experiment, if you don't have a good work, you can pat your ass and leave, and you don't need to pack too much and leave immediately." ”

"I've never seen such a casual company of yours." Su Xiaoyu took a sip of tea and frowned, obviously not used to drinking tea.

"Naturally, a small company like ours can't get into the eyes of your boss Su, and I don't know what you fancy to give me so much investment."

"You just treat me as an idle person who has nothing to do, and you want to come to the entertainment industry to have fun."

"Why me?"

"Remember when you promised me to show me your movie?" The gray-green eyes looked at Zhao Ruozhi's eyes seriously, and said, "Then I'll invest in the movie starring you, what's wrong?" ”

"That's not what I meant."

"Then what do you mean by sending?"

"I can't agree to your conditions."

"And what kind of conditions can you agree to?" Su Xiaoyu put down the teacup, clasped his hands to his chest, leaned back in the chair, and looked at Zhao Ruozhi.

"Give you commissions, shares, these can be."

"You know I'm not short of money."

"I know." This is also the problem that Zhao Ruozhi is most distressed about. Su Xiaoyu is not short of money at all, all he lacks is the fun that "playing" brings him.

"You just can't let him go." Su Xiaoyu narrowed his eyes and observed Zhao Ruozhi's reaction.

Zhao Ruozhi lowered his head, his face was a little ugly: "Since you all know, why do you still force me?" Whether I choose Liu Xiaofei to cooperate or choose to cooperate with you, I must face similar problems. You don't give me time to think at all, even if I don't agree, Ah Piao will help me sign the contract. ”

"You mean, it's not up to you to decide?"

"I just didn't want to make that decision. To be honest, I don't want to accept your investment or Liu Xiaofei's investment. ”

Su Xiaoyu suddenly burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at?"

"If I tell you that Liu Xiaofei's boss is Zhou Yi, will you still consider cooperating with IR?"

Zhao Ruozhi's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it: "Is IR film and television Zhouyi?" ”

"Liu Xiaofei is just a part-time worker, it's not Liu Xiaofei who wants to cooperate with you, it's Zhou Yi." Su Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel funny when he saw Zhao Ruozhi's surprised appearance: "You haven't even understood the background of IR, how dare you cooperate with them?" Anyway, my background can be found on Google, and the authenticity is absolutely guaranteed. ”

Zhao Ruozhi suddenly felt that he was really ridiculous, and he still couldn't get around Zhou Yi's name when he turned around.

"How's it going?" Su Xiaoyu's gray-green eyes were clear and bright, and he didn't seem to have anything to hide.

"I ...... I'm still the same sentence, I can't agree to your conditions. ”

Su Xiaoyu shook his head and said with a smile: "Are my conditions excessive? ”

"It's not that your conditions are excessive, it's my own problem."

"It was Zhou Yi who dumped you, why did you punish yourself in the end? That's not right. ”

"Tell me, then, what's right and what's wrong?"

"Agree to my request, and I'll help you out."

"I can't do it." Zhao Ruozhi put his fingers in his hair in distress and stared at the floor sullenly, thinking of Zhou Yi, there seemed to be thousands of ants crawling in his brain, and it was extremely chaotic.

Just when she was so distressed that she was about to cry, a pair of powerful arms grabbed Zhao Ruozhi.

"It's going to be fine." Su Xiaoyu's voice was low, and every word was extremely powerful in Zhao Ruozhi's heart.

Zhao Ruozhi buried his head and didn't speak.

"Are you crying?"

"Not really." Zhao Ruozhi rubbed his eyes, wanting to cover up.

Su Xiaoyu grabbed Zhao Ruozhi's hand rubbing his eyes: "Don't rub it, the eye makeup is spent." He carefully helped Zhao Ruozhi wipe off the blurred eye makeup.

The skin of the man's fingertips gently touched the soft skin at the corners of his eyes, which made Zhao Ruozhi feel a different feeling in his heart, but this feeling was fleeting, and he wanted to catch it again but couldn't catch it, leaving only a barren place.

Suddenly there was the sound of a glass breaking next door.

"What's going on next door?" Su Xiaoyu asked Zhao Ruozhi.

"Liu Xiaofei is next door to the boss to discuss the details of the contract."

"Did the talk fall apart?" A wicked smile appeared on Su Xiaoyu's face.

"You go and take a look, I don't want to see Liu Xiaofei anyway."

"The master won't take me there, why am I embarrassed to go by myself?"

Su Xiaoyu took Zhao Ruozhi's hand as he spoke, and came to Ah Piao's office next door.

I saw ceramic shards scattered all over the floor, and it seemed that the only ornamental vase in Ah Piao's office had been sacrificed.

Su Xiaoyu greeted Liu Xiaofei and Ah Piao with a smile: "Hello! Meet again. ”

Zhao Ruozhi stood behind Su Xiaoyu and didn't want to see Liu Xiaofei.

Su Xiaoyu glanced at the vase fragments on the ground and said regretfully: "It's a pity for this antique vase." ”

Liu Xiaofei looked at Su Xiaoyu suspiciously: "What antique vase?" ”

"I said that this vase that was broken by you is an antique vase from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and it is priceless."

"This vase was bought by Ah Piao from Chinatown for ten dollars." Zhao Ruozhi reminded Su Xiaoyu in a whisper behind him.

Su Xiaoyu's face did not change, and he still looked heartbroken and regretful. Zhao Ruozhi had to sigh in his heart, it's a pity that this person doesn't want to be an actor, but it's a pity.

"What the hell do you want to do?" Zhao Ruozhi asked Su Xiaoyu, but Su Xiaoyu did not answer him.

Liu Xiaofei looked at Ah Piao, and then at Su Xiaoyu, slightly embarrassed: "I didn't know that this vase was a cultural relic...... Boss Fu, I'm really sorry. ”

Before Ah Piao could speak, he was preempted by Su Xiaoyu: "Do you think Boss Fu will accept your apology?" ”

"This is a matter between me and Boss Fu, what are you making a fuss about?" Liu Xiaofei looked at Su Xiaoyu irritably, complaining in her heart that he didn't come early or late, but he came at this time.

"Boss Su is also here, let's sit down first." Ah Piao beckoned Su Xiaoyu to sit down, and called the secretary to make tea for Su Xiaoyu.

"I just came to ask how the cooperation between Boss Fu and Boss Liu went."

Liu Xiaofei slandered in her heart, do you have to mention this matter at this time? Originally, the cooperation was not very smooth, and Ah Piao was in trouble everywhere in the details of the contract. Now Su Xiaoyu has come to intervene again, which has increased the difficulty of negotiation.

"There are still some details that we can't agree on, but they are generally certain." Piao responded.

"Then congratulations to Boss Liu." Su Xiaoyu was still wearing a mask and saying polite words, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Boss Su is here today to ......," Ah Piao asked.

"Won't Katy come in and sit? If you don't come to our cooperation, there is no way to talk about it. Su Xiaoyu saw that Zhao Ruozhi was leaving, so he immediately stopped her.

Zhao Ruozhi had no choice but to reluctantly walk into the office, deliberately stay away from Su Xiaoyu, and sit down next to Ah Piao. After she sat down, she whispered in Ah Piao's ear: "Don't easily agree to any request made by Su Xiaoyu. ”

"I see."

"Why did Liu Xiaofei drop the vase just now?"

"It's not about cooperation." Ah Piao gave Zhao Ruozhi a look to reassure her.

Zhao Ruozhi nodded, indicating understanding.

"Boss Fu, I have to leave beforehand."

Seeing that Liu Xiaofei was in a hurry to leave, Su Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Is Boss Liu in such a hurry to leave?" ”

"We're pretty much done, I have something else to do, let's go first."

"Don't you wait for me to finish before leaving? Maybe you'll have to make another trip. Su Xiaoyu looked at Liu Xiaofei with a smile, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"What do you want to say?"

"This investment, we are half of us, okay?"

"What did you say?" Ah Piao looked at Su Xiaoyu in surprise, he didn't expect him to make such a request.

"I said invest one and a half. Pay Boss you to pay, Boss Liu and I pay, it's good for everyone. ”

"Didn't you always want to poach people and dominate the family?" Liu Xiaofei's eyes narrowed, like a poisonous snake.

"It's not interesting for my family to be dominant, I have money, it doesn't matter if it's a loss or a gain, as long as everyone has fun, there's no need to be so stiff."

When Liu Xiaofei heard Su Xiaoyu say this, she originally planned to leave, but now she sat down instead. While fiddling with her earrings, she thought and said, "Your Boss Su may not be here to make money, but it is impossible for our company not to make money, and please Boss Su not to embarrass us too much." ”

"You mean I deliberately made it difficult for you?" Su Xiaoyu asked rhetorically: "Does Boss Fu think my proposal can be considered?" ”

"It depends on what Katy means." Ah Piao didn't dare to make a decision for Zhao Ruozhi, because Su Xiaoyu suddenly proposed this new plan, Ah Piao didn't have time to discuss it with Zhao Ruozhi.

Zhao Ruozhi said: "I originally wanted to consider your previous proposal, but now I have changed the plan, how can I believe you?" ”

Su Xiaoyu said: "Since this is the case, then when I didn't say that I wanted to cooperate with Boss Liu, Katy, you can contact me directly after you think about it." After speaking, he left Ah Piao's office under Liu Xiao's surprised gaze.

"Boss Fu...... When do you think our contract will be signed? ”

Zhao Ruozhi rushed in front of Ah Piao and spoke: "Let's ask Miss Liu to go back first, I will think about the signing of the contract." ”

The meaning of sending off the guest was already very obvious, Liu Xiaofei didn't say anything, so she could only leave.
