Chapter 95 Life is like a play, all depends on acting skills
The next day.
Lu Qi received a call from Solomon, asking him to come to the studio.
Lu Qi didn't think much about it, thinking that Solomon wanted to ask about Rocco, so he changed into a black suit and drove to Richard Noble Studios.
After parking the car and saying hello to the lady at the front desk, Lu Qi went straight to the chief production office on the third floor.
"Bang bang" twice, Solomon's hoarse voice came from behind the door:
"Please come in!"
Seeing Lu Qi pushing in the door and Solomon sitting in the office chair, a smile suddenly broke out on his face, he stood up and greeted him with open arms:
"Oh, my Knight of the Round Table, you are here!"
"Tell me, did you give those bastards a good beating?"
Hearing this, Lu Qi shrugged, smiled slightly, and said meaningfully: "Oh, you can rest assured, they will never bother you again, I promise!"
"Ha, of course I believe you, thank you, thank you!"
"My boy, if I had known you a few years ago, I wouldn't be in this mess."
"It's not too late."
"Hahaha, yes! You are right..."
While talking and laughing, Solomon happily patted Lu Qi on the back, pulled him to the seat in front of the desk, and said:
"Come, sit down, I'll show you something!"
Picking up the remote control on the table, Solomon faced the TV set aside and pressed the on/off button.
The next second, a picture popped up on the TV. On a dark background, there was a thank you subtitle similar to the ending of a movie.
What surprised Lu Qi was that it said "Assistant Producer - Alex Mars"!
"This is?!"
Lu Qi understood what this short thank you subtitle meant. He couldn't help but turn his head and look at Solomon who was filling two empty glasses.
Passing a glass filled with whiskey to Lu Qi, Solomon's weathered face was full of smiles:
"Hey, we made it! The movie is finished, and you, my kid, welcome to the entertainment industry!"
After saying that, the old man held the wine glass and motioned to Lu Qi.
Holding the wine glass and touching it lightly, Lu Qi did not drink immediately, but said:
"Mr. Richard, thank you very much. However, I think there is someone more qualified than me to put my name in the movie."
Hearing this, Solomon paused, blinked, and asked:
"Oh, who?"
"Michael."
Putting down the wine glass, Lu Qi said seriously:
"I don't deny that I put a lot of effort into this movie. However, Michael appears on the set every day. You should know that compared to me, he is the one who really loves this movie and has devoted a lot to this movie.
people."
"So, if possible, could you change my name to Michael's? He would be very happy."
Seeing that Lu Qi didn't look like he was faking it, Solomon had a straight face one second, and then suddenly burst into laughter the next second:
"Hahaha, Alex, I really saw the right person, you are a guy who values friendship!"
"Boy, although I'm not very good at it now, but at this age, I still understand a little bit about the ways of the world..."
Under Lu Qi's confused gaze, Solomon picked up the remote control again and pressed the play button on the TV.
The screen jumped, and the next thank-you subtitle clearly said "Assistant Producer" with the same position as Lu Qi!
However, in the name column, it says "Michael Di Santa"
In other words, Michael was also put on the list of producers by Solomon!
The surprise in his eyes had not subsided. Lu Qi couldn't help but look at the proud Solomon and asked:
"Does...Michael know this?"
"I don't know yet. Originally, I wanted to let him come over later and give him a surprise. It would be better for you to know the surprise first."
After a pause, Solomon pointed at Lu Qi, "Don't tell him in advance, I don't want to miss his truest reaction!"
With a slight smile, Lu Qi picked up the wine glass and gestured to Solomon:
"my pleasure!"
...
After solving the problem of Roko, Lu Qi was able to truly enter the entertainment industry, and his life could be described as a happy one.
With a beautiful celebrity girlfriend as your companion, a luxury car, a prosperous career, and brothers who have fun together, what is a winner in life! (tactical back-off)
However, there are always some bastards who can't see others having it easy and want to ruin everything.
And this person is none other than Devin Weston, who Lu Qi had already blacklisted!
When Lu Qi received a call from Solomon saying that De Fan came to the door with his assistant and planned to ask him to hand over the film samples, he felt very calm.
Because he had long expected this day...
When Lu Qi came to Solomon's office, Defan, who was sitting on the chair with his legs crossed, his eyes lit up and he immediately mocked:
"Oh, look who's here. Isn't this the janitor boy who runs errands for the big shot?"
"Why the hell are you here?"
The female assistant sitting on another seat with an indifferent expression said: "It's over, Mr. Mars."
"You did a great job, kid. Thanks to you, I kept this shit going long enough so I could get a big insurance payout when it was all over. I love you, even if you fucking
Rejected my offer..."
His expression darkened, and Lu Qi then asked:
"Where is Solomon?"
"He went to get some negatives, samples, or fucking raw films. The last dinosaur in the city is going to become a fossil."
Hearing this, Lu Qi frowned, put on an extremely serious look, and said in a deep voice: "What the hell are you talking about?"
Seeing Lu Qi's expression, De Fan seemed particularly happy. He stood up and pointed at Lu Qi, "Since you want to know so much, I will satisfy you."
"Listen, the movie is almost finished, so if everything is stopped now, then the investor...that is, me! can get a huge insurance payment!"
As he spoke, Lu Qi's eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper, while De Fan became more and more excited and started dancing:
"At the same time, I can use this money to get the other major shareholder, the idiot son of the old bastard, to agree to demolish this old ruin so that I can redevelop this area and build a mansion!"
"With the current economy, I don't have to pay taxes, the city will let me build a house, and I can even get those rebates!"
"This plan is really genius. It's all thanks to you and the sharp-eyed Jasmine who paid attention to the detailed terms of the insurance."
As soon as he finished speaking, Solomon, holding the movie sample, pushed the door in and said to Lu Qi angrily:
"Alex! They're messing with us!"
"These bastards who serve capitalism, wolves in rotten sheep's clothing!"
Facing Solomon's wrath, Defan and his female assistant Jasmine didn't care at all.
The **** Jasmine stood up, came to Solomon, stretched out her hand, "Don't take it so seriously, Mr. Richard."
Solomon held the baby's movie sample and shrank back, "Are you still human?"
Seeing that Solomon was not cooperating obediently, Defan on the side couldn't help but said:
"Listen, people used to like movies, but now what do they like? Taking selfies of themselves looking weird on their iFruit phone. So don't blame me. I'm very sad about this, but that's how evolution works, the weak are eliminated and the strong survive."
"Jasmine, bring the samples!"
Seeing Jasmine coming forward again, Solomon took half a step back and said in an aggrieved tone:
"Can't we come up with something that at least lets us finish this movie and then close this place down?"
"I'm afraid our schedule doesn't allow us to do this." As she spoke, Jasmine snatched the sample from Solomon's hand, "Goodbye, Mr. Richard."
After watching Jasmine leave with the samples, Solomon couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lu Qi, who was silent at the side, and said in a slightly pleading tone:
"Alex, can't you do something?"
Before Lu Qi could speak, Defan's annoying voice suddenly sounded:
"Oh, he can't do anything. He's just a small assistant producer and can't interfere in the decisions between shareholders."
"What's more, Jasmine will take this only copy of the movie to a safe and private place. No matter how hard you look for it, you won't be able to find it..."
Seeing Lu Qi's angry but helpless look, the proud look on De Fan's face became even stronger.
He walked up to Lu Qi, put on a condescending air, patted the non-existent dust on Lu Qi's shoulders, and then gloated:
"Tsk, tsk, tsk...boy, I told you a long time ago, don't play tricks with me, you can't fucking afford it!"
Chapter completed!
