The dim spotlights were turned on again, Li Xiao stretched and stood up from the musty sofa chair.
In Li Xiao's opinion, this movie is quite average. There are blurry snowflakes in many places, the picture quality is not clear, the sound is very bad, and the overall welcome experience is quite poor.
If he hadn't been watching a movie with his teacher, he would have left angrily in the middle of the movie. However, thinking that this might be his first and last time watching a movie with his teacher, he immediately suppressed his dissatisfaction.
However, unlike Li Xiao, who was living like a year, the other two ladies in the cinema were reluctant to get up.
Li Xiao looked at the two people in front of him who were silently wiping away tears and the two people beside him who were silently dazed with strange looks in their eyes, and the corner of his mouth twitched unconsciously.
Romance movies are still popular among female audiences. People like me who only like to watch science fiction or action movies are really not interested in this kind of ancient romance movies. Besides, he has never experienced anything like separation and reunification, and he cannot fall in love again.
There is no such thing as empathy.
This is just like the protagonists in many novels, who are usually extremely handsome. After all, if they were not like this, it would be difficult for readers to have a sense of involvement.
Just when Li Xiao was hesitating whether to try to wake up the two female audience members who were deep in thought and recollection, the sound of rapid footsteps came from behind.
Li Xiao turned around and saw the conductor who came in. He had a nervous expression on his face and said urgently.
"Three of you, please leave as soon as you finish reading. The little boss suddenly said that he would bring someone over to measure the dimensions and prepare to find a new designer for decoration. You should get up quickly, otherwise the boss will know about me secretly hiding the film.
, I’m still thinking about continuing to work in his newly opened store.”
While talking, the conductor hurried in, holding something in his hand.
She walked up to Huang Yu and thrust the three movie tickets into Huang Yu's hand.
"Well, these are the last three movie tickets in our cinema, please take them."
"By the way, hurry up and go, our little boss will be here in a few minutes."
At this time, the conductor's face was full of anxiety, and he couldn't help but regret in his heart, how could he be soft-hearted and let these three people who had never met before go inside to watch the movie.
Fortunately, the little boss made a special call and asked him to close the door later.
Otherwise, if he suddenly appears and is caught on the spot, he will be doomed.
When Huang Yu heard what the other party said, he quickly woke up as if from a dream. The confusion disappeared from his face, and he showed a grateful look. He took the three handwritten movie tickets and quickly thanked him.
"Thank you! Sister, let's leave quickly."
As he spoke, he took out a red ticket from his bag and thrust it into the conductor's hand.
The conductor quickly declined
"Forget it, forget it, even if I invite you to watch this cinema, go quickly."
After saying that, he helped Huang Yu up and asked the others to leave early.
However, before they could leave the theater, a roar came from the direction of the entrance again.
"What's going on? Can anyone tell me what's going on? Isn't there no more film in the warehouse? Why is there another roll here?"
"Yan Sanhua, right? I remember when I asked you to check if there was any film in the warehouse a few days ago, you told me that you had taken it all out. So what happened to the roll on the projector now? You
This is theft!!!”
Everyone was startled and quickly looked back following the sound. A bald middle-aged man in his early 30s appeared in everyone's sight. Next to the bald middle-aged man was a fat man about the same age who was holding a folder.
The opposite is true for young people, around 30 years old.
Li Xiao secretly thought, "It's not good. I didn't expect to be caught red-handed."
This is troublesome. Theft can be a big or small thing.
He didn't know the approximate value of an old film like this. If it was less than 500 yuan, it would be easier to tell, or if the other party was willing to keep it privately, then it wouldn't be a big problem.
However, if the other party persists, it will be over.
Hearing the familiar voice of the little boss, Yan Sanhua, who was already panicked, turned pale with fright.
She is already in her 40s this year, and she originally thought that she would be able to reach retirement age by continuing to work in the new store opened by the small boss for a few years.
However, she didn't expect that such a thing would happen in the end. The regret in her heart could no longer be suppressed, and her eyes immediately turned red.
Just listen to the bald middle-aged man continue to point at Yan Sanhua and say
"I'm going to call the police right now and have the officers from the Security Department come and thoroughly check how many things you stole from our house."
Yan Sanhua's lips and calves are trembling a little. Although she admits that she likes fishing, sometimes she also likes to arrive late and leave early. Even when the movie theater is still busy, she often secretly sells tickets to scalpers, but she
I have always considered myself a good employee who is dedicated to his duties.
The sofa in the movie theater was broken, I replaced it myself, the floor tiles on the floor were broken, I found cement and repaired it myself, even if there were minor problems with the projector many times, I fixed them myself, and it never happened during the holidays.
During my break, I worked in movie theaters for more than 20 years.
You have worked hard for more than 20 years without any credit, and she really thinks it is not excessive at all to secretly hide a roll of film full of snowflakes.
However, she immediately regretted it. The market price of such an old film full of snowflakes was only five or six hundred yuan.
It would be even cheaper if it were sold as scrap, and no one would want it for a hundred or two hundred dollars.
How could I have been obsessed with it secretly in the first place, and why did I foolishly let these three people play it today?
Now she even wondered if these three guys had teamed up with the boss to trick her.
After all, the small boss had long wanted to fire him. If the big boss hadn't strongly opposed it, and once the other party fired him, he would have to make up for more than 20 months of salary. The small boss, who was stingy by nature, was completely unwilling to pay the money.
After all, I am going to retire in a few years. If I use two years of salary to fire myself, I might as well continue to support him and still use him as a human being.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have packed up my bags and left by now.
Now I'm in trouble. I've been caught and I don't know what will happen when the officers from the Security Department come.
There was despair in her eyes. She never expected that her last day in the cinema would be spent like this.
Before the bald middle-aged man's call was dialed, Li Xiao had already figured out a way to deal with it in the blink of an eye. He quickly stepped forward and said to the bald middle-aged man.
"Wait a minute, this Sister Yan Sanhua has not committed any theft."
The bald middle-aged man stopped what he was doing and looked Li Xiao up and down, with a look of disdain on his face.
"You mean it's not true? I also suspect that you are his accomplice. Why do you want to come into my cinema and steal something? I will ask the security department officers to arrest you later."
Li Xiao continued speaking calmly.
"First of all, I have no contact with this Ms. Zhang Sanhua before, and I don't know this Ms. Zhang Sanhua, so your slander against me is unfounded."
"Secondly, this roll of tape is still in the cinema and has not been taken out of the cinema. Moreover, the film is still playing, so the theft you mentioned cannot be established at all."
"And you said before that you asked Sister Yan Sanhua to search the warehouse to see if there are any remaining film films."
"But she was not asked to turn over the entire cinema to find out if there were other films in other parts of the cinema. The cinema is so large and has been in operation for such a long time. It is also very difficult to accidentally pile up a circle of film films in the corner.
Normal things.”
"Finally, customers suddenly came to the cinema and wanted to watch a movie. After our repeated requests, Sister Yan Sanhua, who loves her job and loves her job, searched for it and found the movie film that was stuffed in the utility room by someone."
"This allows the cinema to operate normally. Even if the security department officers come, I'm afraid there won't be any problems."
After saying that, he had a confident smile on his face, but in fact, he was panicking in his heart.
It seemed reasonable, but he really didn't know what would happen if he really pursued it. After all, he didn't have any experience in handling cases and he didn't know what judgment the guards in the security room would make.
Hearing Li Xiao's long list of excuses, the bald middle-aged man's face changed. He was thinking crazily in his mind whether the other party's words were valid or not. But then he thought about it. No matter whether they were valid or not, he would call the people from the Security Department over first.
What if I can successfully fire this guy without having to pay severance pay?
But more than two years' salary is enough for me to take care of several major health care treatments. How can I pay it to her for no reason?
Here he immediately stopped thinking and was about to pick up his cell phone and make a call.
Li Xiao felt anxious when he saw this scene. He actually failed to scare the other party, and the other party still wanted to call the police. Now he was in trouble. He really didn't have any confidence at all. What if he watched a movie and took away Yan Sanhua's sister?
If your job is gone, the sin will be huge.
The squad leader who had been silent stood up and said to the bald middle-aged man calmly.
"I heard from Sister Yan Sanhua, do you intend to transform the old cinema here into a new Internet cafe or shopping mall?"
The bald middle-aged man stopped dialing the keys and looked up and down again at the person who appeared in front of him.
He is not a guy without discernment. After all, his father was able to open a movie theater decades ago, and even after the movie theater ran out of business, he could unconditionally support the people in the movie theater, purely for his own thoughts.
It is conceivable that his family environment is also quite good. After all, if the family environment is poor, it is impossible to leave such a large cinema and not operate it well.
Therefore, the bald middle-aged man has actually seen a lot of big shots, including rich and powerful people, black people, white people, and white people. He has seen them all.
So he could tell at a glance that the girl who appeared in front of him was a little different from the boy before.
The temperament of the other party is very similar to that of some wealthy second-generation or even third-generation daughters, and the temperament is much stronger than those wealthy daughters.
Temperament is something you can't see or touch, but you can feel it vaguely if you see it too much. It's like a hunting dog. Maybe it hasn't seen a lion since it was born, but the moment it meets a lion, its hairs...
They will all stand upright, which is crushed by the momentum from those in high positions.
The bald middle-aged man took half a step back, and then he felt that even if the other person was a wealthy daughter, it had nothing to do with him, so he quickly stopped taking a step back.
But his tone was a little weaker, he frowned and asked
"Yes, I have this plan, but I don't know what you want to do?"
He didn't quite understand what kind of medicine this little girl was selling in her gourd.
Wanting to show a harmless smile, I shook my head
"It's nothing expensive, it's just that my family owns several properties near here, and I also opened a small shop in the Thirteen Bowl Food Street in front."
"So we still have a little understanding of the planning here. The place we are currently in is an area to be redeveloped."
"Although the household heads in urban villages do not fully agree, the number of signed consent forms has reached 70%, which means it has entered the stage of pending review."
"The superiors will directly send people down to go door to door to solicit opinions from the remaining 30% of property owners. Of course, the remaining people can still choose not to agree."
"But regardless of whether you agree or not, the buildings in the urban village will be in a closed stage."
"In other words, no matter how much approval or reconstruction is required, there is no way to pass the application. You can renovate the original building, but you cannot change the structure."
"You can't increase the floor area, add floors, or even change the interior room structure."
At first, no one understood what the squad leader was talking about and why he suddenly got involved in the transformation of urban villages.
However, when the monitor came to the end, everyone suddenly realized, and the bald middle-aged man's face changed wildly. He quickly looked at the fat man next to him with a big belly and asked in surprise.
"Wen Tao, is what she said true?"
The fat man named Wen Tao also took a breath, slapped his forehead and said quickly.
"Oh, yes, I almost fucking forgot about this. The main reason is that you have been doing demolition here for too long and it has never been completed."
"I forgot that this place has become a closed area. You want me to help you renovate the walls, knock out these floor tiles, and rebuild it. It's okay. If you want to tear it all down, building an Internet cafe is probably not realistic."
"
"If you can't pass the approval, as soon as you start to remove it, someone will come down and put a seal on you."
Hearing Wen Tao's confirmation, the bald middle-aged man took a deep breath.
But he quickly realized that he was originally talking about calling the police, but why did he get involved in the issue of urban villages that cannot be demolished?
I thought that this shabby movie theater couldn't be demolished and money had to be put into it every day. Even if no money was put in it, it would just sit here empty.
The bald middle-aged man became even more angry and said in a bad tone
"It has nothing to do with you whether it should be demolished or not. Now I have to call the police, and you just wait to go to jail."
The monitor didn't bother him to make a call. Instead, he picked up his cell phone and said softly.
"I am Chang Hong Group, the second daughter of Chang Wanhao. Originally, I was very interested in acquiring your cinema, which doesn't have much customer traffic. After all, you can't make money if you open it. If you don't open it, it will remain vacant.
No compensation for demolition.”
"After all, my father and some other friends account for half of the remaining 30% of properties in urban villages that are unwilling to be relocated, which means that more than 15% of the properties are in our hands."
"If my father and his friends are not willing to demolish, the consent rate here will never exceed 95%. If the consent rate is not 95%, it means that this place will never be demolished."
"So now do you plan to own a cinema that cannot be operated, or do you plan to sell it at a market premium of 15%?"
The balding middle-aged man never expected that this seemingly gentle and peaceful girl in front of him would suddenly become so powerful.
He was so frightened that he took four or five steps back before stopping on the wall. Before he could speak, the fat man named Wen Tao frowned, looked at the monitor up and down, and then he exclaimed.
"It turns out it's really Miss Chang. I'm honored to meet you. I, Zhuo Wentao, are a lower-level supplier. I had the honor to meet the second lady once at the Changhong Group's annual meeting last year. It's just that the lights here were too dim. Just now
It was really rude to fail to recognize the second young lady all of a sudden."
As he spoke, he quickly wiped his hands on his pants and shook hands with the squad leader.
Seeing his old friend and confirming his identity, the bald middle-aged man's expression kept changing.
His original plan was very good. It was very close to the city center and there was a large commercial supermarket across the road. It would be great to open an Internet cafe business less than 10 minutes away. Besides, there were so many young people nearby.
As a migrant worker, if you are bored after work, you will definitely come here to surf the Internet and relax, so you will definitely earn a lot of income here.
However, I didn’t expect that such a genius idea would be aborted before it even started.
The bald middle-aged man couldn't help feeling a little. This was just jealousy of talent. He was born at the wrong time and there was no room for his business genius to develop.
The bald middle-aged man saw his brother standing next to the domineering girl and flattering her with a look of shamelessness, and he became very angry. He was considered his good brother after all.
The decades-old friendship was actually not worthy of a little girl, but she immediately thought of the little girl's identity and raised the Changhong Group, and he was somewhat relieved.
After all, other people's families are not comparable to their own small businesses. If you are a small shrimp, then the other person is a big whale.
After he quickly discussed it with his good brothers, and with Zhuo Wentao's strong instigation, the bald middle-aged man decided to sell the Shijing Road Cinema to the squad leader at a premium of 15%.
After all, what the squad leader said is very reasonable. If the other party doesn't sell it, then this cinema will die in his own hands.
Moreover, expropriation is still far away, and this cinema is different from other self-built houses.
Even if others don't demolish it, they can use it for other purposes, such as renting it out for people to live in, or opening some convenience stores, but he can't do that here.
Apart from opening a movie theater, this structure cannot do anything else.
