Lu Jianhui is the boss of Rihui Film and Television Company. He is fat, bad-tempered, and very tactful. Dealing with him is a very depressing thing, but there is nothing I can do about it. He won’t clear the script for me.
I have to keep looking for him for money until he gives it to me.
I vigorously pushed open the frosted glass door of Lu Jianhui's office.
Lu Jianhui was lying leisurely on the cowhide boss chair, holding a cigar of unknown brand between his plump and oily lips. Seeing me walking in with an angry face, Lu Jianhui raised his thick eyelids unwillingly.
He stood up and exhaled a burst of blue smoke.
"Screenwriter Du, what's going on? Who made you angry this early in the morning?"
Seeing Lu Jianhui's appearance, I felt as if there was a fish bone stuck in my throat. I wanted to curse but couldn't.
"Boss Lu, I don't want to talk nonsense with you even though you know the truth. Your crew is about to finish filming, so you should give me the script fee!"
Lu Jianhui was unmoved at all. He held the cigar between his white radish-like fingers and flicked it gently on the carved glass ashtray on the sandalwood desk. The burnt ash fell into the ashtray with green smoke.
It shattered into ashes, and then a burst of choking smoke rose.
"Screenwriter Du is a sweetheart at first sight. Our company is also having difficulties. We agreed with you before that we would pay you the script fee once the production starts, but those bastards on the crew are so good at making money. It hasn't even been a month since the production started. One million
I spent all my budget. Screenwriter Du, you have to understand me. Screenwriter Du, you are a talent. The script is a rare good book. According to my many years of experience, this movie will definitely be a hit. When the time comes, your
The value cannot be compared to what it is now. Screenwriter Du needs to take a longer-term view, so why rush at this moment!"
Lu Jianhui raised his voice and struggled to move his fat body from the recliner. His huge face was like a basin filled with leftovers, and he was holding it naked in front of me. I couldn't help but feel nauseated.
The cowhide recliner made a squeaking sound, as if he was not satisfied with the oppression of the fat man sitting on him.
"Boss Lu, why are you kidding me like this? If I read it correctly, my tens of thousands of dollars in script fees can't buy a few cigars in your hands, right?"
"It was given as a gift by others. How can I bear to smoke this myself? Now I only work as a bus when I go out. The company's funds are really tight!"
"It seems that Boss Lu is determined not to pay me for the script? It's really impressive that such a big boss can also act rogue!"
Lu Jianhui's rogue appearance made me furious, but I couldn't think of a good way to treat him.
"I'm just saying this to give you face, screenwriter Du, don't be shameless!" Lu Jianhui's face changed immediately when he saw me scolding him. His face was still somewhat angry when he was angry.
Deterrence, if it were normal, I would not dare to scold Lu Jianhui, but these days I have become very angry and started to ignore him.
"We didn't sign a contract before, it was just a verbal agreement. It's useless even if you go to court to sue me! I advise you to just wait at home, otherwise, you won't even get a cent of the money!" Lu Jianhui
He snorted coldly and looked at me with a look of disdain that made me angry.
"You bastard, if you don't give me the money today, you won't be able to leave this office!" My heart skipped a beat, and I pointed at Lu Jianhui with a trembling finger and cursed.
"It's really shameful for you! Believe it or not, I asked the security guards to beat you up and throw you out. You don't know whether to live or die!" Lu Jianhui clapped his hands, and two tall and thick men rushed into the office. These two men were wearing uniforms.
There was a fierce expression on his face.
"Throw this reckless thing out of here!" Lu Jianhui pointed at me with a finger like a white radish, and the fat on his face shook.
When the two security guards heard Lu Jianhui's words, they immediately rolled up their sleeves and rushed towards me.
"Damn it, I'm going to fight you!" The clay figurine still has a bad temper. Although I have no money or power, I still have dignity. Lu Jianhui, this bastard, cheated me like this and even let his security guards beat me. I can't swallow it.
Immediately after taking this breath, he clenched his fists and started fighting with the two security guards.
Although I am not short, I unfortunately do not exercise regularly, so I am no match for these two tough security guards. In just ten seconds, I received several punches on my body, my face was in burning pain, and I spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Hit me, hit me hard! If anything happens, I will be responsible!" Lu Jianhui commanded from the side.
At this moment, the anger had reached the top of my head. I picked up the porcelain bottle behind me and threw it at the heads of the two security guards.
"What are you doing! Do you want to kill someone?" When the two security guards saw that I was risking my life with them, they immediately gave up. They took a few steps back and looked at me in horror.
"Quickly take the blue and white porcelain vase from his hand to me! I asked someone to buy it at the auction!" Lu Jianhui immediately panicked when he saw me holding the porcelain vase, and shouted to the two security guards with red eyes.
The two security guards did not dare to step forward easily and slowly surrounded me.
"Boss Lu, this bottle is very valuable, isn't it? Since you don't want to pay me for the script, it just so happens that I don't want it either!" I gave Lu Jianhui a meaningful smile.
When Lu Jianhui saw my expression, he immediately panicked and looked at me with gritted teeth, his little eyes blazing with anger as if he wanted to eat me.
"Hurry up and put that bottle away for me, otherwise..."
Before Lu Jianhui finished speaking, a crisp voice suddenly sounded in the office.
Looking at the debris on the ground, the anger in Lu Jianhui's eyes almost ignited the air in the room.
"Ah! Little bastard, I'm going to kill you!" Lu Jianhui picked up the huge ashtray on the table and threw it towards me.
The sound of the porcelain bottle breaking also woke me up from my anger. Looking at the fragments of the porcelain bottle scattered in front of me, I just smashed the porcelain bottle on impulse. Now that I calmed down, I began to regret it. Lu Jianhui looked nervous just now. This
The porcelain vase must be very valuable. Now I am a pauper who can't even pay the rent. I can't even afford a cigar smoked by Lu Jianhui, let alone lose this suspected antique porcelain vase.
The ashtray in Lu Jianhui's hand flew toward me, and I shrank back as much as I could. The light in the office suddenly dimmed, and I suddenly felt a biting chill on my back. It was noon in the summer.
The office door is also closed tightly. Where does this weird wind come from?
The fragments of porcelain bottles on the floor were also blown by the strange wind, causing them to vibrate on the ground, making a rattling sound. This wind was so strong and strange that I could hardly stand still. In desperation, I held on to the wall and managed to stand firm.
