116 Expulsion from the road march
Chen Xize's itinerary to Los Angeles was full, and when he went to the studio to visit and study, he brought Chu Xiao and Liang Mu with him, and asked Su Wei to take Chu Xiao and Liang Mu around the rest of the time.
Su Wei and Chu Xiao are both fans of "La La Land", and when they came to Los Angeles, Su Wei specially arranged a "Philharmonic Tour" for Chu Xiao and Liang Mu according to the bridge in the movie. At Warner Bros. Studios in Hollywood, I visited the filming locations of "Friends", "The Big Bang Theory", and "Sisters in Bankruptcy".
Dinner went to TheSmokeHouse, Liang Mu also played piano music there, originally he learned the piano for the sake of Bo Girl's like, but he didn't expect to like it after practicing, practicing for more than ten years, and it was easy to come. The song "Miaand SebastiansTheme" attracted applause from everyone, and some customers even gave Liang Mu a tip.
Visiting the Griffith Observatory at night, overlooking the starry city, Su Wei said that she had stayed at Griffith Park overnight to find inspiration to write a script.
The Angel Railroad in downtown Los Angeles has been shut down due to safety hazards, but a small gondola is still available for visitors to view from the periphery. Opposite is the Central Market, which can be described as a paradise for foodies, and when you come here, you have to taste all kinds of Internet celebrity snacks.
At sunset, head to Hermosa Marina, stroll along the beach, and come to The Lighthouse Cafe, where you can order a cup of coffee or wine and listen to a live broadcast as if you were in a movie scene. Liang Mu is indeed a man who knows how to make women happy, he talks about wine, music, including Su Wei and Chu Xiao chatting about some niche movies, he can participate in the topic.
In the past few days of getting along, Chu Xiao has also changed his opinion of Liang Mu, he is not a pure playboy, but a man who knows how to enjoy life, and he has a lot of happiness when he travels with him.
On the day he returned to Shanghai, Su Wei also came to send it, Chu Xiao was a little reluctant, and hugged Su Wei for a while, like a lover who was inseparable. Su Wei always gave Chu Xiao an extremely down-to-earth feeling, and she couldn't say the reason specifically, this kind of "meeting Jun Chu is like returning to an old friend." Maybe it's fate, right?
Liang Mu also wanted to come up and hug him, but was held up by Su Wei's palm.
"You said that you, when you came out, you really got a girlfriend, your girlfriend Ganyu, aren't you jealous?"
At that time, Chu Xiao kept saying that Ganyu was his girlfriend in order to hide from Liang Mu, and he happened to be teasing him at this time.
Su Wei didn't pay attention to Liang Mu, and said to Chu Xiao: "WeChat contact." ”
"That's for sure, the new book is ready, but you have to show it to me as soon as possible."
Su Wei nodded and hugged Chu Xiao again.
The sun shines as brightly in California as it did when it came.
As soon as the security check passed, Liang Mu immediately reported the itinerary to Gu Ziyu, and he had successfully protected the flowers and was on the way home.
Gu Ziyu replied: I will pick you up at the airport then.
When they came, when they left, Chu Xiao didn't see Lu Zheng, so he asked Chen Xize if Lu Zheng didn't go back together.
"He was fired."
"Dismissal?" Chu Xiao was shocked, didn't he just want to fight for the budget, so he persuaded Chen Xize to expand his brokerage business, although he was selfish, he wouldn't be dismissed, right?
"I asked Su Wei to help check, and the price of the equipment purchased by Chenxi on behalf of Lu Zheng in the past few times was higher than the market price, although it was used for personnel technical training and entertainment expenses, but it still can't be said."
In this way, Lu Zheng took the kickback, which is a nail in the coffin.
"I still remember that you said before that with you, you will definitely control the crew expenses of "Assassination of Love"."
Chu Xiao nodded, at that time, she used this promise to win cooperation with Dawn Pictures.
"All expenses are going through in our crew before the internal financial calculations."
"There is indeed a lot of oil and water here, and in the past I turned a blind eye, after all, some hospitality expenses are necessary. But the crew expenses of "Assassination of Love" this time, which you gave me here, are quite different from what I saw inside the company, so I have to check it carefully. ”
Chu Xiao didn't fully understand, and asked, "You mean to say that the production expenses on Guangqi's side and Chenxi's expenses on Chenxi's side are not the same?" ”
Chen Xize acquiesced.
"In addition to the production fee, Dawn should also have a budget, such as project entertainment, if it is only a small amount, it is normal."
Chen Xize sneered: "The key is that the gap is too big. In addition to the production costs, there are also publicity and distribution fees and the like, and the miscellaneous things are counted together, I asked Song Chuchu to check it carefully, why can't it be done, this check, the problem is very big. ”
"The financial budget of the crew, the production company, and the producer, mainly these three links, of course, also includes the financial budget of the platform, I am staring at the crew, controlling the cost, the budget has more than two million remaining, and Guangqi's finances have also been transferred to the account of Dawn Pictures."
"This money went into the Dawn account and was counted as the publicity fee for "Assassination of Love".
"So it's an additional more than two million publicity fees?" That's fine.
"Lu Zheng is responsible for the procurement of materials for publicity, more than 10 million publicity and distribution fees, and now another 2 million has been added, he is spending a lot of money, "Assassination of Love" is about to be broadcast, and Lu Zheng has taken an urgent plan to apply for an additional budget."
Greedy demand brings with it an insatiable desire.
When Chu Xiao heard this, he understood it.
"Then you came to Los Angeles with Lu Zheng this time specifically to fire him?"
"He is a veteran-level employee of Dawn Pictures, and his dismissal is certain, but he still has to save face."
"Abuse of power for personal gain, this has already constituted the crime of embezzlement, and it will take five years to go in, let alone five years, right?" Chu Xiao shook his head and said, "Human nature is greedy." ”
"Dawn's internal audit, Kuang-Chi is also reforming internally, and it will be carefully investigated, and the projects you have done, including the funds that have been liquid in your hands in the past, should be ......"
"Of course there is no problem!" Chu Xiao glared at Chen Xize angrily, knowing that he was out of concern, but he shouldn't ask that, isn't this questioning her character?
"I didn't mean that, I know who you are, just to remind you that you have to be defenseless."
"I definitely don't have any problems." Chu Xiao patted his chest and said.
"But there must be something wrong with Mr. Zhang of Guangqi, one day the incident happens, I'm just afraid that he will implicate you."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of myself."
There is no doubt that Zhang Haojian has a problem. It's just the relationship between Zhang Haojian and Zhou Jialuo, I'm afraid that the company will be hollowed out by him, and Zhou Jialuo will have to turn a blind eye. Chen Xize didn't say these things to Chu Xiao, she said that she just wanted to work hard and stay away from workplace struggles.
Even so, there is no need to bother her with these troubles, besides, according to Chu Xiao's thoughts, she is about to leave Guangqi, and more things are better than less.
