Chapter 65 Regret
…
"That rich man from the United States is one of the most famous chefs in the United States. He has superb cooking skills and has written dozens of cookbooks. He owns 28 restaurants and has won 14 Michelin stars. He is also a host, and the various programs he hosts are popular in Europe and the United States."
"He originally wanted to travel around the world to find delicious food hidden in every corner of the world, and to do a food show at the same time. Therefore, he customized this off-road RV and put a lot of cooking-related equipment and supporting facilities in it, and he went a bit overboard in terms of safety."
"Not to mention the facilities and accessories related to cooking, how many rich people can afford an off-road RV mainly for cooking? And the more expensive defense facilities are useless. In a country with good public security, these defense facilities are not needed. And in those turbulent countries, who would buy such a comfortable off-road RV?"
"He himself is extremely boring. Apart from a TV and a set of speakers placed on the rooftop terrace, there are no other entertainment facilities in the car."
"He is also a mysophobe and specifically requested two bathrooms. I heard that he doesn't intend to let anyone touch the bathroom in his bedroom. Only the other bathroom is shared."
"In short, because of his special needs and personality, others were unwilling to take over the car, even though my friend kept lowering the price."
"That's also why his family and that rich guy don't want the car."
"So boss, just give him 7 million."
An off-road RV that costs 17 million can be bought for 7 million? The answer is... Of course it's not that simple.
If this off-road RV is really so cheap, and the 5 million deposit, freight and tariffs have all been paid, how can the rich man still afford the 7 million? Therefore, in addition to the fact that the car is too special and difficult to sell, Wang Daqing's friend has already recovered the 11 million cost, and the cost of going back will increase a lot, there must be a lot of favors involved - Wang Daqing's favors.
Don't forget, this is a bulletproof off-road RV, and it costs 17 million.
After thinking for a while, Xu Kai said, "I'm just starting out, so I'll give your friend 8 million first. Tell him that I'll make up for the money he didn't make later."
If someone else said this, Wang Daqing would definitely think that the other person was just saying it for show, but Xu Kai would not do that, especially not to his own people. Xu Kai said that he would make it up to his friend in the future, and he would definitely make it up to his friend.
This is one of the reasons why Wang Daqing was willing to recognize Xu Kai as his boss - Xu Kai never treated his people unfairly, and never made things difficult for his people.
"I'll give you another 200,000 yuan. You and Xiaobai should entertain your friend. After all, he has come to Dongzhou, and we have to show our hospitality."
"Okay."
Wang Daqing did not act pretentiously and went straight to call his friend over. Xu Kai completed the transaction of the off-road RV with the other party, making the off-road RV completely belong to Xu Kai.
but--
There is still a problem bothering Xu Kai at present - because the car is too big, he must have an A1 license to drive it, but Xu Kai doesn't even have a C license.
"We need to find a driver."
…
Wang Bin is not the knowledgeable Cui Min. He doesn't even need to go and see it in person. Just by listening to others talking about the general situation of Xu Kai's off-road RV, he can judge that Xu Kai's off-road RV must be worth no less than 10 million.
Xu Kai, who can even afford an off-road RV worth more than 10 million yuan, will definitely not compromise because of a film salary of more than 1 million yuan.
Moreover, Wang Bin also heard that Xu Kai became the male lead in "The Empress of China".
There were even rumors that Xu Kai had already started dating Zhu Bing.
Wang Bin didn't know whether they were dating or not, but he knew that Xu Kai and Zhu Bing must have a close relationship, otherwise, Zhu Bing would never have spent 16 million to invite Xu Kai, a man with no fame or traffic, to be his leading man.
In addition, it was Ji Zhaode who provoked Xu Kai first.
It seems that it is impossible to get Xu Kai to apologize to Ji Zhaode.
There was no other way, Wang Bin could only go to the hospital in person to comfort Ji Zhaode.
Upon learning that Wang Bin had arrived, Ji Zhaode pretended to be dead.
Wang Bin didn't care. He said to Qian Meijuan, who was taking care of Ji Zhaode, "I can't do anything about what Brother Zhaode asked Yu Qingyun to apologize to Brother Zhaode."
"If that's the case, then we at Zhaode will have no choice but to withdraw from "Escape," Qian Meijuan said with a serious face.
Qian Meijuan has the confidence to challenge Wang Bin.
Although Zhu Bing has a guest appearance, the drama "Escape" ultimately relies on Ji Zhaode's fame and popularity.
Let me put it this way, if Ji Zhaode did not act in "Escape", even though Xu Kai and Zhang Zhiwei's performances were very good, it would be useless. Neither the theater owners nor the audience would buy it. The pure newcomer Xu Kai and Zhang Zhiwei, who has just entered the ranks of second-rate stars, could not carry "Escape" at all, and Dong Ni, Pan Xiaowei, Hu Man and others were even worse.
You know, Ji Zhaode’s 15 million yuan salary was not received for free.
Therefore, Qian Meijuan concluded that Wang Bin would definitely compromise and help Ji Zhaode deal with Xu Kai.
"It's not that I don't want to help Brother Zhaode, but because Zhu Bing is protecting Yu Qingyun, with my limited power, I can't do anything to Yu Qingyun."
Wang Bin said frankly, "You all know who Zhu Bing is, without me having to tell you. If we anger her, not only will our film 'Escape' not be able to be released, but Brother Zhaode's career will also be greatly affected."
"Are you threatening us with Zhu Bing?"
"I'm just speaking the truth."
"I admit that we can't afford to offend Zhu Bing, but we can't just let this go, right? Look at the beating Yu Qingyun gave our Zhao De. His face is still swollen."
"I'm going to say something you may not like to hear. If Zhaode hadn't hit Yu Qingyun's brother first, Yu Qingyun wouldn't have been able to hit Zhaode so hard. You know, the fight between Zhaode and Yu Qingyun was inspired by the fight between Yuan Xiaoliang and Yu Qingyun during their audition, and Yuan Xiaoliang didn't even get hurt in that fight."
"We at Zhaode hope to take better-looking photos."
"Yu Qingyun also hopes that the photos will look better."
"So, you are going to side with Yu Qingyun?"
"Do you think I would like Yu Qingyun who doesn't even give me the slightest bit of respect?"
"That……"
Wang Bin interrupted Qian Meijuan who was still trying to pester her: "Let me be frank. With Zhu Bing protecting Yu Qingyun, we can't do anything to Yu Qingyun. And Brother Zhaode is unwilling to give up and insists on going on strike under such circumstances. Then we can only follow the contract and make public the whole truth to win sympathy and build momentum for Escape."
"Believe me, I don't want to take this step, so I hope you won't force me."
Seeing that Wang Bin was ready to fight to the death, Qian Meijuan was a little scared.
Not to mention, if Ji Zhaode really doesn't want to shoot the film, he will have to pay a high penalty for breach of contract.
They couldn't bear the fact that the crew of "Escape" revealed the truth of the matter.
You know, Ji Zhaode is an action star who is known to win the championship in Wulin Feng.
Ji Zhaodeli’s character is to have extremely strong practical ability.
If word got out that Ji Zhaode was beaten one-on-one by Xu Kai and sent to the hospital during filming, then Ji Zhaode's character might collapse.
If that happens, their losses will be immeasurable.
Seeing Qian Meijuan relaxed, Wang Bin said: "The crew is now filming someone else's drama, Brother Zhaode can rest for a few more days. When Brother Zhaode has rested, come back. Everyone is waiting for Brother Zhaode."
After saying this, Wang Bin stood up and left.
After Wang Bin walked out, Ji Zhaode slowly sat up and sighed heavily.
He regretted provoking Xu Kai! ...
