To Li Yi's surprise, several friends hurriedly followed behind. It turned out that their friends had just received the news and knew that there was an obvious problem with the cinema's sound system.
They came to the back of the stage of the cinema and saw dozens of people already handling the iron box with switches installed.
It turns out that there are various switches inside the box, which seems very complicated.
The switch of the audio system should also be inside the box. If you want to solve the problem, you must first find the switch of the audio system and then find the problem area.
Li Yi, who was standing nearby, was thinking about various problems in his mind. Because he was getting more and more anxious, his expression was mixed with unnatural things.
Li Yi thought to himself: "As long as it can be repaired quickly! In order to hold our press conference, I would even be willing to be stabbed twice and then lie in the hospital for two months..."
Although the staff were repairing the broken sound system, Li Yi and his friends were still anxious and kept looking around.
For these workers, even if the entire sound system is scrapped, they will not suffer any terrible losses, because they are just workers. If necessary, they can leave the cinema happily and then Find a better job elsewhere.
"Masters, when can you complete the repair work? I'm really in a hurry."
"Actually, we are also very anxious, but I want to tell you that when faced with certain problems, being anxious has no effect. It can only speed up the heartbeat, and it is unlikely to have any other good effects."
Li Yi then said to them: "Is this okay? As long as you solve the problem within half an hour and get the sound system back to normal, I will happily give you 50,000 yuan in cash and invite you to the restaurant. drink wine!"
The person in charge said from the side: "We are the staff here, and we must understand your current mood, but let me tell you, repairing the sound system will definitely take time. Even if Monkey King comes here, he cannot solve the problem quickly!"
Mr. Xing said next to him: "So how long will it take you to complete the repair work? At least we have to know it, right?"
"Then I can't answer accurately, because the situation may be very complicated. If we are lucky, we should be able to solve the problem within half an hour. If we are unlucky... the repair work may not be completed until tomorrow."
"Oh my God! Do we really have to postpone it until tomorrow? This is very scary for us! There are many VIPs in the hall, some of them are big brothers in the entertainment industry, but... let them feel disappointed, it is very Terrible thing!"
One master said: "We admit that it is terrible, but... we have no good way, we can only do things according to reason. Of course we must work hard to not cause any trouble or loss to you."
After hearing this, Li Yi turned his eyes to the person in charge next to him and found that the person in charge was also looking at him, and his expression did not look relaxed.
Because he felt pain, Li Yi sighed hard. After hearing the sound of sighing, Mr. Xing and Uncle Da who were standing next to him also showed painful expressions on their faces, as if they had encountered the most terrifying thing in the world.
It is a normal reaction to worry that the distinguished guests in the hall will be dissatisfied. Li Yi is like this, and so are several of his friends.
Li Yi thought about it and could only hate that he was not prepared enough. Why would he want to cooperate with such a broken cinema?
Li Yi stood nearby anxiously and checked his watch again, finding that there were only ten minutes left before the scheduled opening time.
If the press conference really cannot be held in a timely and normal manner, the consequences may be dire.
Not only the loss of reputation, they may also lose various other things.
How can those friends who work in the entertainment industry not value their own reputation?
Because he felt that being anxious would have no good effect, Li Yi persuaded himself not to be anxious, but he was still anxious to death.
This is true, but it does not prove that Li Yi's psychological quality is not strong enough.
After Li Yi walked out of the backstage of the cinema, he walked in the direction of the office area.
Li Yi felt that although the repairmen there seemed very cooperative and worked very hard, he still had to find the leader, tell him the important truth, and then seek help.
After arriving at the office area of the cinema, Li Yi walked forward anxiously. After searching for a while, he found the dean's office.
After walking into the office, Li Yi saw this middle-aged man in a suit sitting inside, looking at him with his eyes.
"You are the star named Li Yi, right? What's wrong?" the dean said to Li Yi steadily.
Li Yi smiled and said: "Hello! We are the organizers of this press conference, which means that whether the press conference is successful or not is our biggest concern! Of course we don't want to let ourselves suffer losses, so..."
The dean said kindly: "Actually, we also have this mentality, but let me tell you, everything takes time. Even if our masters work very hard and always try their best to help you, they may not be able to solve the problem. This is
Normal.”
"I admit it's normal, but... can you go there and give on-site command? With the dean's help, those masters may work harder to solve the problem as soon as possible. I'm really anxious!
You should be able to understand!"
"I do understand! If those masters don't listen to us leaders, it will be very strange. We may also fire the disobedient masters... But you have to understand that if the emperor's son wants to eat fish without bones, then which minister can
Can you help me?"
Because he felt that the dean's words were reasonable, Li Yi also showed a smile on his face.
The smile was mixed with pain, which made the dean secretly feel embarrassed.
Li Yi said: "Is this okay? As long as you ensure that the press conference goes ahead as planned, I...I will discuss it carefully with my friends and give you an extra five hundred thousand in cash! Please consider it, Dean! Is it too much?
Isn’t making money a good thing? I’m afraid there are no people in the world who regard money as dirt!”
"It makes sense! Frankly speaking, if I do what you want, there will be no problem!"
"That's great! I promise to give you an extra five hundred thousand in cash when I check out! You are the dean and the leader who is in charge here, so you should be able to help us!"
After the director showed a natural smile, he continued: "Then let me start to introduce the situation. There are a total of two sound systems on the stage of our cinema. This was already designed during the construction. What I mean is
………”
"Maybe I have figured it out! What the dean means is that if there is a problem with the first sound system, we can temporarily use the second sound system. If it is used normally, there should be no problem!"
The dean said: "That's what I mean! But... I also want to tell you the relevant issues so that you can think carefully and then make the right decision."
"What is the problem? Dean, please tell me directly! I am an easy talker!"
After the dean nodded lightly, he said to Li Yi: "Then let me tell you directly. The second set of sound systems has not been used for a long time. It is not that it cannot serve you now. The key is that the second set of sound systems
There are also problems with the system. If problems occur again during use, it may be scrapped!"
Li Yi said: "If it is really scrapped, what will be the terrible consequences?"
The dean continued: "I can elaborate. The cost of each sound system is at least 20 million yuan. If it is really scrapped, it will be equivalent to an economic loss of 20 million yuan for us. How much is 20 million yuan?
?You can think about the relevant reasons."
Li Yi could indeed understand but didn't know what to say.
"After the second sound system is scrapped, who are we going to ask for damages? So I want to tell you clearly that we can do this, but we cannot do it easily."
Li Yi suddenly made a decision and said stubbornly: "But I still hope you will use the second sound system! As long as there is little possibility of problems, we must insist on such a request."
"The possibility of a problem is indeed small, but...if such a problem does occur, what should we do?"
"Then I will happily take all the responsibilities and compensate all the losses to your cinema! Is it straightforward enough for me to make peace? Please consider it, the director, and make it convenient for us!"
The dean was not surprised and continued: "Since you even said such a thing, I should no longer object! In order to properly protect the interests of both of us, I have a request now."
"What is the request? Just tell me directly!"
The director said: "My request is that we must sign the contract immediately! After completing the contract signing, I can greet our staff at any time and let them use the second sound system of the cinema directly!"
Li Yi, who was extremely anxious, checked his watch again, and then said to the dean: "Signing a reasonable contract is obviously troublesome, so what I mean is that the process can be simplified! I mean what I say, if the second sound system
If it is really scrapped, I can compensate all the losses to your cinema!"
"But I still have to sign the contract properly! Please cooperate and don't make me feel embarrassed!"
Li Yi was speechless, "Isn't my reputation worth these two sentences?"
The dean said kindly: "Since you have said this, I should completely believe you. I also know that you are heroes and heroes who make a living in the entertainment industry. It seems that you are able to afford it even with such a small amount of money."
.If you really want to keep your words, then..."
Li Yi said painfully: "The dean doesn't need to explain it so complicatedly! Who doesn't understand these principles? Please take action promptly, greet the staff, and ask them to start using the second sound system immediately!"
The dean said nothing more and just nodded to Li Yi.
After seeing the dean walking outside, Li Yi felt like he had been saved and immediately followed him.
They hurriedly walked out of the dean's office and walked towards the stage.
As he walked forward, Li Yi could think of all kinds of questions.
If it really breaks down, although I have the ability to compensate, I may not be willing to do so...
The dean took Li Yi to the place where the masters worked and saw many masters busy here.
When the person in charge saw the dean, he immediately walked up to him and greeted him with a smile on his face.
The dean asked questions in front of the person in charge, and he quickly understood the situation here.
What the person in charge means is that the masters have rich experience and it will definitely take time to repair the sound system. Although there is no big problem, it will definitely take time.
This is the crux of the problem. They need enough time to repair the sound system, but Li Yi and his friends want to hold a press conference for the King of Comedy here, so they cannot delay it at will.
When Li Yi and his friends were discussing in the corner, they would always turn their attention to the masters of the dean.
Mr. Xing also expressed his thoughts and believed that mistakes cannot be made in press conferences. If various mistakes do occur, then the reputation of himself and his friends will be affected, and even his reputation in the entertainment industry will be affected.
The smell is terrible.
Among those friends who are big stars in the entertainment industry, who doesn’t value their reputation? In many cases, reputation is also a rare asset.
Star Master felt a little painful and said to everyone irritably: "I'm such a damn thing, why didn't I think of such trouble in time? If I had known that there was going to be a problem with the sound system here, I... I should have chosen another venue!"
"
"It makes sense! If we want to hold such an event, we can do it in any movie theater. Why do we have to choose this weak movie theater?" Reba said next to him.
"Since we have already encountered such a disaster, let's be prepared to be unlucky to the end! Complaining in vain will not do any good." Uncle Wu Tat said next to him.
Li Yi said painfully: "I just did the work in front of the dean, and the result was not a complete failure. What the dean means is that if the sound system is not repaired in time, then the dean can help us find a way to directly
Use a second sound system."
"This must be a good thing! Why didn't you tell everyone earlier?" Xingye said.
"Because this is what happened just now, so... I mean, this can solve some problems, but it's still a risky move."
"Why do you say that? Can you tell us the truth?"
Li Yi continued: "Because this cinema is large and complex, it has various auxiliary functions. What the director means is that there are two sets of sound systems here. If there is a problem with the first set, you can use the second one."
set......"
Everyone understood what Li Yi meant, but not completely because Li Yi didn't finish what he said.
After seeing everyone looking at him, Li Yi continued: "The dean just made it very clear that the second sound system is not widely used. If it suddenly starts to be used, then... all kinds of terrible things may happen.
problem."
"What is the problem?" Reba said.
"The most terrifying problem is that the second sound system may be completely scrapped. This is a cinema, and many of the equipment are expensive. If the second sound system is indeed scrapped, it will be a serious economic loss."
Mr. Xing said next to him: "It seems that I have understood. If the second sound system is scrapped, the dean may hold us responsible and even ask us to compensate him for all the losses. Who is willing to let himself bear huge losses?"
What about the economic losses? This situation is obviously normal."
Li Yi continued: "It seems that everyone has understood it, and I think it's good. I just spoke in front of the dean. If there is a problem with the second sound system, I can only hand over the money to the dean honestly.
"
Uncle Da was a little angry: "This old guy, it's good that we didn't ask them to compensate for the loss, but they still want us to compensate!"
