chapter 36 furious

Kyle was dumbfounded by what I said, and he asked me for help. He said to me in a soft tone for a while: "I am also very annoyed when I change the shooting date temporarily, but I can't break up with them no matter what I do. People can choose to set up There are many shopping malls, but it is too difficult for us to find the eighth international first-line brand. Maxwell, who always has to follow the trend, wants to go higher and further in the workplace. The four words of patience and compromise, You must learn it and keep it in your heart.” When Kyle said this, I was embarrassed to continue to be angry. In fact, he was a pretty good boss. He had taken good care of me in the past two years in the company, but I was not very motivated. I don’t want to embarrass Kyle. He has his own difficulties. I also know the stakes of this matter. After being silent for a long time, I said to him: "I will contact her, but the day after tomorrow is the 10th. Time is so tight, can you If we coordinate the release date again, I really can’t guarantee it this time.” Kyle rubbed his temples tiredly and said, "Try your best to communicate and tell her: If she can participate in the filming on the 10th, I am personally willing to compensate her with three times the labor cost." I fell silent again, deeply aware of Kyle's difficulty. The company's senior management must have put a lot of pressure on him in this incident. He is different from me. After all, he has already achieved this position, and I am at the grassroots level anyway. If he feels uncomfortable, the worst he can do is find another company. Perhaps his helplessness and compromise are a reflection of the cruelty of the workplace. After leaving Kyle's office, I dialed Maya's phone with mixed emotions. Maya seemed to have not gotten up yet. After a long time, she answered the phone in a hazy voice: "Hey, Maxwell, why are you calling me now?" "Are you still asleep?" "Well, there were two night scenes last night and they took nearly an entire night to shoot. I was so sleepy."Maya said and yawned again and asked, "Are you okay with calling me?" I was a little embarrassed to say it, and after being silent for a long time, I said: "The shooting plan over there has been adjusted. It has been moved forward to the 10th, which is the day after tomorrow. Can you coordinate the time again?" Maya was silent on the other end of the phone, and the silence was enough to prove how difficult this was for her, because she had already applied for leave on the 15th with the crew, so the crew must have made some adjustments to her scene. The adjustment will involve many other actors. If we make adjustments at this time, other actors must have great opinions. "I'm going to find the director now. If we can coordinate it, I'll let you know as soon as possible."Maya said to me. "Well, I'm really embarrassed this time." Maya smiled and said: "What are you talking about? If we can coordinate, you have to come to Hengdian to pick me up this afternoon. Taking the train is too boring." "no problem." "Well, then you wait for my news." After finishing the call with Maya, I immediately went to the bathroom to smoke a cigarette. I felt congested and panicked. I knew how bad it would be for Maya, as a newcomer, to make requests to the crew over and over again, but she was still so cheerful. I agreed, and I really hope it won't cause her any trouble. Around noon, while I was eating, my phone vibrated and I checked it was a text message from Maya. "Maxwell, the crew has approved the leave. It will last for 3 days. Please come and pick me up." A smiley face was added to the text. I took a deep breath, and my nervousness finally eased a little, and then I sent a message back to Maya. This afternoon I would rush to Hengdian to pick up Maya back to Suzhou. I went to Kyle's office again to report the situation to him. He was as relieved as I was. He immediately gave me his car keys and gave me 2,000 yuan in cash, asking me to go to the office on his behalf first. Hengdian invited Maya to have a meal, and he would treat Maya alone when she returned to Suzhou. Kyle also told me: The vice president of i's China area will also come to Suzhou on the day of shooting the promotional posters to formally sign a contract with our department store to set up counters. This means that the planning department and investment promotion department have been busy for several days. The i-investment plan of the month was finally completed, and Boli Department Store has officially reached the standard of category B, a top department store. For me personally, I got an opportunity to be promoted to the leader of the planning and copywriting team. I hope this time is really perfect and nothing will happen again. After coming out of the office, I immediately drove Kyle's Audi A4 to Hengdian. When I arrived, it was already around 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Instead of looking for a hotel, I went directly to the scenic spot where Maya was filming. She and I We made an appointment to wait outside the scenic area for her to finish filming this afternoon's scene. The autumn wind blew away the dusk, and the sky was completely dark. Before Maya came out of the set and lit a cigarette, I habitually looked at the exit of the scenic spot and lost my mind. Maya finally appeared under the lights at the exit. She walked very slowly and covered her cheek with her right hand. I couldn't quite see her expression clearly. I stood up and walked towards her. She looked at me, but she didn't behave as intimately as before. I smiled and asked: "Do you have a toothache? Why are you covering your face?" Maya remained silent and continued walking forward. Such abnormal behavior made me full of doubts. I immediately followed her and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Let me see your face." "It's okay."Maya quickened his pace, but his voice was choked with sobs. I grabbed her and then forcibly removed her hand covering her cheek. I was shocked when I saw several bright red fingerprints on her fair face. I was furious: "If any idiot hits you, I'll fucking kill him." I said and walked towards the entrance of the scenic spot. Maya grabbed me tightly from behind: "Maxwell, don't go." "Get out of here, I won't fucking slap her, I'm sorry for you." I could no longer control my anger, and I vaguely realized that Maya beating must be related to this incident. After Maya was thrown away by me, she sat on the ground and hugged my legs tightly, crying and saying: "Maxwell, I beg you, don't make trouble. It's not good for me at all. There are not many people here. Let's go back to the hotel and talk." " I tried my best to control myself and gradually calmed down as I looked at the glances that had been directed at us. At this time, I ran in and made the matter worse, which would only make Maya worse. Unless she didn't care about anything and gave up the drama, obviously this It's completely impossible for her. At this moment, for Maya, all I can do is be patient. I helped Maya up from the ground, feeling convulsions of anger that could not be vented in my heart. I took out a tissue to help Maya wipe away her tears. I tried to speak as softly as possible: "Let's go back to the hotel first, but you have to tell the truth." clear." Maya nodded, gently took my arm and walked towards the parking place. In the hotel room, Maya sat next to me. I used an ice pack to help her cover the bruised area. My heart was still filled with anger. I gritted my teeth and asked Maya, "Which idiot hit you?" You director" Maya shook her head, tears fell down her cheeks again, and she was silent for a long time before she said to me: "It was an actress in our crew. She said that I was a vixen who seduced the director, so the director took care of me like this and helped me twice. The schedule was arranged so that they didn’t even have time to rest, but I” Maya didn't say any more and was already bursting into tears, and my heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife. I guessed it was right. It was indeed my matter that caused Maya this trouble. I wish I could find that actress to help Maya right now. Slap him back. "Do they usually bully you like this?" Maya nodded and said, "This world is very complicated. I'm just a newcomer who just graduated from school. It's normal. Maxwell, you don't have to be angry on my behalf." "Who is that actress?" I asked with a frown, still wanting to help Maya get an explanation. Maya shook her head desperately and refused to tell me life or death. Waves of grievances that I couldn't vent welled up in my heart, and I even resented myself for causing Maya to suffer such great grievances. Maya seemed to see through my thoughts and comforted me softly: "Don't think about it. Her hitting me will only make me work harder. I will definitely go higher and further than her. Maybe I will have to thank her in the future." Here’s the slap you gave me today.” I gritted my teeth and sighed, and remembered what Kyle said to me in the morning. Yes, whether in the workplace or in the entertainment industry, we must learn to be patient and compromise, because we who are struggling at the bottom do not have the capital and rights to attack. If Impulsiveness, if you cannot learn to restrain it, you will only pay a greater price, so Maya tried her best to stop me from asking for an explanation for her. However, because of our humbleness, do we have to live without dignity? Is there really no crystal clear "city in the sky" in this world? Can we not return to the In Empty City where human nature was originally? Who the hell is going to give me the answer?
