In the 500-square-meter office, Zhang Hao was in pain.
Looking at the news on the computer monitor in front of him, he felt like he was suffocating.
The boss, oh, Zhu Tiezhu stood in front of Zhang Hao's desk with a look of self-blame.
"Tell me about it." Zhang Hao lay back on the boss's chair, raised his hand and rubbed his temples, "What's the news?"
Zhu Tiezhu: "Boss, there is good news and there is bad news."
Zhang Hao: "Let me tell you the bad news first."
Zhu Tiezhu: "The sniper plan failed. Xiao Hong became famous. I was stabbed in the back by Liu Yishou. Xiao Hong also stole 30 million from my company."
Zhang Hao sighed and opened his eyes: "Xiao Zhu, you have been with me for a long time, right?"
Zhu Tiezhu looked at Gong Jin and said, "Boss, it's been twenty years."
"Yeah." Zhang Hao nodded, "Tell me where you want to go. Sudan, Libya, Algeria, Ethiopia, Somalia, Uganda, Tsny, Kenya, Rwanda, Guinea, the two Congos, Angola, pick one, I'll let you
Prepare your boat tickets."
Zhu Tiezhu was anxious: "No, boss! There is good news!"
Zhang Hao said calmly: "Let's talk about it."
"Xiao Hong acted in Liu Yishou's film without any pay or dividends! The song he wrote was only 500,000 yuan! And according to internal information, he also received 800,000 yuan for "Yun Luo Hong Chen"! Although I bought him
The film cost 30 million, but it made back hundreds of millions! This wave is really not a loss!"
Zhang Hao: "..."
You rebellious kid exploited my son to earn his hard-earned money! And why did you come to take credit for me?!
What the hell kind of good news is this?
But... it seems that it is good news that my son was not so successful this time... right?
Zhang Hao's mood was very complicated.
There is both anger that his son was cheated by the capitalists, joy that his son was not very successful, and guilt for his son.
All in all, it's very complicated.
Zhu Tiezhu's mood was also very complicated.
How could I get the opposite result when I obviously did everything fine?
After thinking about it, I decided that I was operating on the premise that Xiao Hong's films were completely bad.
It turned out that the film they made was not a bad one.
Not only is it not bad, it is also very good.
The other thing is Liu Yishou. Didn’t he say that Xiaohong played a character who only appeared in a few episodes in his drama?
After thinking about it carefully, it seems that there is nothing wrong with what they said.
In "Blood Youth", Xiao Hong indeed only appeared in less than four episodes before taking his lunch and running away.
"Yunluo Hongchen" is indeed "a third-rate love story between the emperor who descended to earth and the empress who ran away on earth."
Except for this "third-rate" issue that needs to be discussed, there seems to be nothing wrong with the rest.
As expected of the boss's son, even his talents are equally outstanding.
This is where my emotions get complicated.
I am happy because I feel that my boss has a successor, but I am depressed because I feel that I might have to go back to Africa again...
But Zhang Hao let him go.
"You go back first."
After Zhu Tiezhu fled at the speed of light, he collapsed on the boss's chair.
What should I do tonight...
A few hours later——
"Hey, Lao Wei? You're going out to play skewers at night! What? No time? Are you afraid that your wife will go back to her parents' house? You are just soft! If your wife dares to make trouble, she deserves a beating! I won't even hesitate to blame you!"
"Hey, Lao Lin? Let's go out for a drink at night! We brothers haven't had a drink for a long time. What? You discovered another gold mine in Africa? Can't you come back now? Okay, okay, making money is the most important thing."
"Hey, brother Fang, do you want to go watch the game? Tonight's Beijing-Tianjin derby! What? You don't want to watch the game anymore?"
"Hey, no! I haven't said anything yet! Why are you afraid of your wife? I, Zhang Hao, am the kind of person who is afraid of his wife! I'm too lazy to talk nonsense to you!"
In the underground parking garage of an ordinary high-end residential complex, Zhang Hao, sitting on the red flag, put down the phone.
"Why are you always asking me to come out for dinner? Why is everything happening today? Is it such a coincidence?"
He was helpless.
He really didn't want to go home.
A few days ago, he confidently told his wife that "it's all technical adjustments," "My son's funds have been spent, and the modern plot will definitely stretch his legs," and "Don't panic, I think it's very stable."
As a result...I slapped myself in the face again.
But time waits for no one, and he will eventually go upstairs.
The tired pace shown by dragging a body that is not tired - this is to win sympathy.
But when she opened the door, Liu Yan was not sarcastic.
However, the few questions she asked made Zhang Hao soak the clothes on his back with cold sweat.
"Would you like to have barbecue? Have a drink? Or go watch a game?"
What the hell are these traitors... Cursing secretly in his heart, Zhang Hao put on a smile on his face: "Honey, I was wrong."
At this time, you cannot quibble, but decisively admit your mistake.
Next, it depends on how the wife responds.
If it's "something is wrong", it means she is angry.
if......
"It's okay, let's eat first."
Zhang Hao breathed a long sigh of relief, which meant everything was fine.
"Okay, wife!"
After eating and drinking, sit on the sofa and rest.
Liu Yan turned on the TV and directly found "The Red Dust" and started watching it from the first episode.
Cold sweat broke out on Zhang Hao's forehead again: "Honey, haven't you seen this before?"
"My son's first TV series, we need to savor it carefully." Liu Yan looked at the screen and said calmly, "Besides, I have paid so many VIP memberships for nothing, so there is no need to waste it."
Zhang Hao had nothing to say.
How about taking Zhu Tiezhu back to Africa?
If you give him the entire Somalia, can he still become the Pirate King?
After watching for half an hour, Liu Yan suddenly said: "His father, please find a time to call your son."
Zhang Hao was stunned: "Honey, is this going to be a showdown? It's not very good."
"It's not a showdown." Liu Yan pursed her lips at the TV, "My son's drama is really good. Maybe... he really likes this industry? I told you before that he didn't like it, but I was embarrassed to say it.
That’s all. I said I didn’t like it before, but I just thought we were an ordinary family and might not be able to support him entering this industry.
But now he is doing well, and I heard he has earned 800,000, right? So if he really likes it and can guarantee not to mess around with men and women, do we parents really want him to live according to our ideas?
Don’t forget what our father did at the beginning, and you don’t want your son to repeat the same path of being dominated by his parents.”
Zhang Hao fell silent.
Watching the TV series on TV, he fell into reflection.
Could it be that I really did something wrong?
In fact, this is the kind of life my son has chosen. There is no need to let him become an ordinary office worker according to his own ideas.
Isn't this a kind of freedom?
In essence, there is no difference between letting his son become an ordinary office worker and his father letting him inherit the family group.
It is parents who control their children's lives.
Zhang Hao suddenly became enlightened.
"Honey, you are right! Then I will call him before going to bed tonight!"
"Well, it's okay to reveal a little bit about our family background. Don't let your children put so much pressure on you. Our biggest wish as parents is to hope that our children will be well."
That night, in the study.
Zhang Hao smoked a cigarette for the first time in a long time.
It’s still the familiar Hongtashan which costs eight yuan a pack.
After smoking a cigarette, he also made a decision.
He dialed his son's phone number.
Soon, the call was connected there.
"Hey, Dad? Have you watched the news too? Your son and I are a celebrity now!"
Sure enough, my son likes this business and I can tell that he is very happy.
"Son, what do you think of being a director?"
Zhang Hong's voice came from over there: "A lot of female celebrities have called me recently, and I feel pretty good. By the way, Dad, I recently got a fitness card and am working on my waist strength. Do you want to have your grandchildren soon?"
"
Zhang Hao: "..."
Sure enough, the dirty entertainment industry will corrode him, so he should just go and become an ordinary office worker!
