The richest man in Xihong City, I am Wang Duoyu
Chapter 172
Chapter 172
"Sister Hua, Mr. Lu's motorcade is here. Let's go downstairs to the reception later."
In a standard room on the second floor of the hotel, a woman with a slightly chubby face and curly hair flattered a middle-aged woman who was playing with her mobile phone on the bed.
"Oh? Which one are we going to appear on?"
Hearing that it was finally time to go to the reception, Li Hua, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't help being elated. She dropped the phone in her hand and asked excitedly.
The manager, who was still smiling, immediately turned bitter when he heard the sequence of appearances, and smiled awkwardly.
Seeing the appearance of her manager, Li Hua suddenly had a bad feeling, a trace of anger rose in her heart, and she asked in a trembling voice:
"Tell me quickly, which one will appear?"
"the fifth!"
"What? I'm the fifth one to appear? Is he crazy? He looks down on me so much?"
Hearing that she was the fifth to appear on the stage, Li Hua couldn't suppress the spark of anger rising in her heart.
The order of appearances reflects the organizer's importance to them in a certain procedure. This is an unspoken rule in the circle.
Now that he has placed himself in the fifth place, so far ahead, doesn't that prove that he is dispensable in the other party's eyes?
Thinking of this, the anger in her heart became more violent.
"Which number is Lu Shu playing?"
Li Hua's eyes were blazing, he looked at the manager, and asked every word.
Lu Shu was her old opponent.
Since their debut, the two have been competing, and they basically don't appear at the same time on weekdays.
But this time Wang Duoyu offered too much, which made her reluctant to refuse.
Of course, Lu Shu couldn't bear to refuse.
Therefore, two people who are usually incompatible with each other appeared at an event for the first time.
Thinking of Lu Shu, Li Hua's already gloomy face became even more gloomy.
The agent knew the character of his boss, and when he was inquiring about the news, he also inquired about the other party's good order of appearance.
But precisely because he knew the order of appearance, the agent became even more angry.
Hearing Li Hua ask about Lu Shu, a trace of anger appeared on the manager's face, and he said indignantly:
"I don't know how the organizer did it, but it actually ranked Lu Shu in the eighth place, three sequences behind us."
"What? She is later than me? Three places later?"
Upon hearing this, Li Hua's voice suddenly rose, sharp and piercing.At the same time, the whole person jumped up from the bed, jumping three feet away.
She can tolerate other things for the sake of money, but now, she really can't bear it.
Not only could she not bear it, but the anger in her heart was getting bigger and bigger.
The whole person is like a volcano, which may erupt at any time.
Seeing her boss's appearance, the agent shrank her neck subconsciously and hid behind her. She knew her boss's temper very well.
If it erupts, my body will not be able to resist it.
Sure enough, Li Hua grabbed the pillow in his hand and threw it directly at the manager, but the other party dodged it.
Li Hua, who originally just wanted to vent a little, saw that the manager dared to hide the pillow she threw, and the temper that had just been relieved surged up again.
This time, she couldn't control her emotions anymore.
New hatred and old hatred came to my heart together.
When you see something, just grab it and throw it over.
It doesn’t matter what it is.
The manager was also dumbfounded when he saw a bunch of things flying towards him.
But the movement was not slow, a huge energy surged out of the obese body, and he dodged past again with ease.
When she hid, there was a sudden "bang" sound behind her.
The two looked at the past at the same time.
Li Hua's phone fell to the ground feebly, and at the same time, the screen of the phone was already torn apart.
"My cell phone!"
Li Hua yelled, but she didn't care about being angry anymore.
She just bought this mobile phone. Although the price is just a drop in the bucket for her, it is still a headache!
More importantly, there are many contact information of big bosses in the mobile phone. If the mobile phone is damaged and lost, that is the real loss.
Li Hua hurriedly ran down from the bed with disheveled hair, pushed her manager away, and ran towards her mobile phone.
It's a pity that bad things always come in pairs.
When she threw something too hard just now, the phone hit the wall, and it was directly cracked. When she picked up the broken body of the phone, the screen was completely cracked, and the phone couldn't be opened at all.
"I"
For a moment, Li Hua's chest couldn't stop churning, as if endless anger was accumulating in her heart, she turned her head, stared at her manager, and let out a cold voice:
"Why did you escape just now?"
The agent's heart trembled when he heard Li Hua's words.
If you didn't dodge your fierce look just now, the phone hit me on the head, and now it's not the phone that cracked, but my own head.
But these words obviously cannot be said to the furious Li Hua, lest they add fuel to the fire.
The manager skillfully started his own play-by-play tactics, lowered his head in silence, as if obediently admitting his mistake.
She is too skilled at this tactic.
Ever since Li Hua forced out several managers, and when she was forced by the company to act as Li Hua's manager, she learned to pretend to be stupid without a teacher.
As long as she can pretend to be stupid and escape this period of time, Li Hua's temper will naturally recover.
Sure enough, seeing the manager lower his eyebrows and express his obedience to himself.
The anger in Li Hua's heart also gradually disappeared, and the depression dissipated.
Only at this time, she will feel that she is superior to others.
"Forget it, you find someone to repair the phone and try to restore the data inside."
Li Hua waved his hand weakly, handed his mobile phone to the manager, and instructed carefully.
But at the end, he threatened softly: "By the way, don't leak the contents of the phone, but if I find out that there is information leaked, be careful of your dog head."
"Understood. Absolutely nothing can go wrong."
The manager's head lowered even more, and he almost bowed 180 degrees.
"Just now you said that I was the fifth to go to the venue? You called Lu Ziqiao and said that I would not go, unless my order of appearance was moved to the back."
There was a dangerous look in Li Hua's eyes, and she leaned close to the manager's ear and whispered instructions.
The agent nodded quickly, indicating that he understood.
Then he was about to take out his mobile phone and go out to contact Lu Ziqiao.
But Li Hua called out again:
"Don't go, just call here and turn on the speakerphone. I want to hear what he has to say."
Hearing Li Hua's request, a trace of fear and anxiety flashed in the manager's eyes.
She was afraid that once what Lu Ziqiao said made Li Hua dissatisfied in the slightest, the other party might pick up things and throw them around.
This kind of thing has happened not once or twice.
The company also talked with Li Hua many times, but the other party never changed.
After all, Li Hua is the first-line star in the company, and in this small company, she is the absolute first sister.
Therefore, even if she has a bad temper, the company tolerated the other party's various shortcomings, patiently served her, and searched for new actresses along the way.
Li Hua's status will only decrease when a new actress successfully grows up to be the company's first sister.
Before that, her position was as stable as Mount Tai.
"Sister Hua, why don't I go out and fight, so I won't disturb your rest."
The assistant looked at Li Hua with pleading eyes, looking forward to it.
Who knows what Li Hua will do.
He didn't want his head to become like a mobile phone, torn apart.
But obviously Li Hua didn't give her a chance to refuse.
He snorted again, prolonged his voice, and said only one word, "Huh?"
Immediately, the manager was so frightened that his gallbladder was broken, and he didn't dare to make the slightest move.
The fierce light in Li Hua's eyes was too captivating.
At this moment, the manager also had a flash of the idea of leaving.
Although he earns more than a starlet by Li Hua's side, it's too dangerous.
Now she is afraid that she will have her life to earn money, and she will die to spend it.
Under Li Hua's threatening gaze, the manager tremblingly took out his mobile phone and called Lu Ziqiao again.
"toot toot"
After a beep sounded, Lu Ziqiao on the other end of the phone picked up the phone impatiently, and asked loudly:
"Hey, who is it?"
So annoying.
Everyone called themselves, and in just a short while, Lu Ziqiao was so irritated by everyone.
Even when he saw a call from an unfamiliar number, his temper immediately exploded.
Anyway, I don't plan to join the entertainment industry, who cares about you broken stars.
If he had known that he would be so tired and busy, Lu Ziqiao would never have raised his hand and explained his dream to Wang Duoyu.
Originally, I just wanted to have a party, but who ever wanted to make it so big, and my boss was not very reliable, so I was exhausted, and I didn't have time to brag with beautiful women.
You must know the purpose of your party, precisely because there are many beauties at the party, so that you can hunt for beauty!
"Mr. Lu, I'm Sister Hua's manager."
"Sister Hua? Who is Sister Hua? Speak quickly if you have something to say, and let go if you have to fart."
Faced with Li Hua's agent's arrogance, Lu Ziqiao directly responded in a rude manner.
There are too many celebrities here today, Li Hua is not a superstar, Lu Ziqiao almost forgot about this character.
Now I still talk to myself about Sister Hua, who knows who it is.
After all, the word flower is relatively common in Chinese names.
Hearing Lu Ziqiao's answer on the phone, Li Hua's eyes instantly widened to their maximum size, and his mouth opened wide, with shock written all over his face.
How many years!
From his debut to now, after so many years, someone dared to talk to him like that.
At this moment, Li Hua even had the idea of throwing away the phone.
She thought so, and she was going to put it into practice.
But when she just picked up the phone, the manager who had been prepared hastily covered her phone with her hand, and looked at Li Hua eagerly.
"Sister Hua, this is my phone."
The manager said aggrievedly, his eyes seemed to be filled with tears.
The ferocious expression on Li Hua's face froze for a moment, and she gave her manager an angry look, and said embarrassingly:
"I know, and I won't do anything with it. Besides, it's really bad. I'll just pay you one, and it's not worth much."
Where Li Hua couldn't see, the manager curled his lips secretly, obviously not believing what Li Hua said at all.
Fortunately, after the interruption just now, Li Hua really gave up the idea of smashing her mobile phone, which made her secretly relieved.
But thinking of the culprit of all this, the manager was also out of breath.
Although in front of Li Hua, he bowed his knees.
But he also developed an air of arrogance in front of others.
When participating in activities in the past, as long as Li Hua's name was mentioned, the other party would give Li Hua a face and hold her comfortably without looking at the monk's face or the Buddha's face.
I didn't expect to encounter a hard stubble today.
After all, he was horrified and frightened.
Meeting such an unscrupulous person as Lu Ziqiao, she could only consider herself unlucky.
But obviously she didn't have this kind of cognition. When Lu Ziqiao directly said that she didn't know Sister Hua on the phone, she also became angry and said directly to Lu Ziqiao on the other end of the phone:
"Mr. Lu, you really are a noble person who forgets things so much. Have you forgotten? Our sister Hua is a first-line star that you hired at a high price. We will participate in the performance tomorrow night."
"High price? Tell me how much it is, and I'll see if I have an impression."
Lu Ziqiao didn't follow the routine and asked her to tell the price she gave to the other party to see if she could remember it.
If it really costs more money, then I must remember it.
"Hehe, Mr. Lu, the appearance fee for Sister Hua's acupuncture is 100 million. Do you have any impression?"
The agent specially emphasized the number of 100 million, obviously to remind Lu Ziqiao to recall.
If the other party really forgot, it would be too embarrassing.
"100 million? Damn, how much did I think, don't bother me with such a small number, I'll hang up first, and ask my assistant if you need something, don't bother me, who has time to bother you little stars."
When the other party said that it was a one million appearance fee, Lu Ziqiao suddenly lost interest, and had no idea of continuing the conversation, so he hung up the phone directly.
Listening to the "beep" sound from the other end of the phone, the manager and Li Hua looked at each other, neither of them knew what to say.
100 million appearance fee, how little is this price?
Some of them couldn't imagine how much other people's appearance fees were.
And the two of them knew very well that the 100 million was a completely false price.
If it was Li Hua's peak period, it would indeed be worth the price.
But now she doesn't know where she has gone, and the market price for her is generally 30 to 50.
But when Lu Ziqiao sent someone to ask for a quotation, they also routinely quoted 100 million.
Asking prices all over the place, pay back the money on the spot.
If you ask for 100 million directly, and then slowly grind it out with the other party, won't the price of 50 be revealed?
But who would have thought that the organizer of this event didn't even bring any bargainers. After asking about the price, they directly paid 100 million, and the money was paid on the same day. This made them excited for a long time. .
I didn't want to fight, but in the eyes of the other party, this 100 million is just a small and dispensable number.
