King of Hollywood Chapter 39: It’s a pity you can’t do that
Chapter 39 is a pity that you can’t do that
Some of the noisy office just silenced after this sentence. After a while, the staff member who asked the earliest questioned Edward’s shoulder and sighed, "I hope not to have the worst."
"I hope." Edward smiled, somewhat helpless and accustomed, and then quickly left. "Today the new supervisor will host the meeting of the planning department for the first time, and I will know by then."
The so-called worst case is that the newly arrived Ms. Charlize, who got this job by going to bed with her boss, did not learn nothing, could not manage things or did nothing at all, so the power fell to "Mr. Bruto "In the hands. This title comes from the villain in Popeye, with a bearded face, arrogant arrogance, self-righteousness, and never put others in the eyes.
So, what kind of person would be called such a nickname? And even the staff with most non-planning departments agree with this title?
"How can they do this? How can Mr. Bentley do this! As the deputy director of the planning department, hasn't I been supporting the overall situation for more than a month? Isn't it that I am running the entire department?" Edward said. The "Mr. Bruto" was furious in his office at the moment. He didn't keep his beard and he was well-dressed. He looked very gentle, about thirty to forty, but his droopy eyes and thin lips made him appear. Come quite mean.
"Yes, of course, Mr. Fassbender, but who made that woman... the chairman of the board of directors of the head office... a mistress." The assistant was very careful to please, "I believe neither Mr. Bentley The board of directors still sees your achievements in the eyes, but... presumably this Miss Charlize wants to try some planning work, so Mr. Kewell will only... arrange this way."
"Stupid woman!" said a middle-aged man called Fassbender, scolding, "Who does she think she is? What does she think is planning work? It's good to go to bed with a man? Look at her Planning book!"
Fasbinder walking back and forth violently in the room suddenly came to the desk and threw a planning book into the air and slammed it around: "Look what this is shitless, Draft? Who would like to watch a draft of a group of inexplicable people bouncing on the stage! "Survivor" is really a real reality show! Does she think that she can have more than 50 million ratings by making a show?"
The assistant next to him lowered his head, his disdainful look flashed across the corner of his mouth, but the respect was restored immediately, and Fassbinder was still chattering.
"I really don’t understand what Mr. Kewell is thinking. He is a great director and has a genius creativity, but why would he meet such a requirement? Why not let her go to the movies?, the new Miracle Girl, how good I will gladly help Mr. Kewell to support her. "Fasbinder finally slowed his breath. Obviously, he is not a fool, and he knows who can attack and who cannot.
In fact, it is exactly the same. This "Mr. Bruto" is as irritable, arrogant and arrogant as the animated character-as a certain sentence says, there is a wrong name, no wrong The nickname-but always sitting in this position, which has nothing to do with his mastery of thinking about the boss, no matter where it is, this is the office culture.
Of course, his uncle also helped a lot, William? Arden, one of the few executive directors on the board of directors, serving as the vice president of the broadcaster, is Sean? Mr. Fassbinder's uncle of the distant house. It was precisely because of this uncle that Fassbender was able to enter, and it was also because this uncle, even if he had made several mistakes, was all turned into a big one.
Someone above, right or wrong, plus the ability to work well, so Fassbender always seemed arrogant and unpretentious, even the original department head, closed his eyes to him. eye. This kind of faction makes the staff very annoying, not only the staff of the planning department, but also the profession of the non-planning department. Given that he is not as bad as the big villain in Popeye, except for "Mr. Bruto". The number is on his head-although there are many arrogant villains such as animation, everyone agrees that rude Bruto is his prototype-showing how unpopular this guy is.
Mr. Fassbinder knows this nickname, but he is still proud of it, even privately publicizing: Yes, I am Bruto, but unfortunately you don’t have spinach or Popeye.
"Okay, get ready for a meeting." After venting, Fassbender finally calmed down, pulled the collar, and then restored his gentle appearance. "This is the new supervisor who came to the planning department. We can’t be late for the first meeting-everyone is ready, Jeff?"
"Yes, Mr. Fassbender, everyone has stated that they will support you." Assistant Jeff? Fairman remained the respectful look, and then sighed in his heart for the upcoming meeting.
"Very well, if the lady is interested, I don't mind respecting her on the surface, but if it's not interesting... that's okay, it's up to her to decide." Fassbinder sneered and waved out. Out of the office.
Soon, he came to the door of the conference room, and after knocking twice on the door symbolically, he walked in. The room where there was still a little discussion sound disappeared, and many people lowered their eyes. Go on, don't look at Spender.
"You are two minutes late, Mr. Sean." The young girl sitting at the top who was writing a picture on a document, looked up at him and said in a plain tone.
"Really? I'm so sorry, the clock in my office is probably a little slower." Fassbinder chuckled and sat down in the first position on her right hand. He did it on purpose. It’s just two minutes late. It’s really nothing, but so many people can just be late. If the other person is smart, he should know what he wants to express.
What a beautiful woman. Fassbinder thought about it while looking at Charlize. No wonder some people say that Director Miracle has a good vision, and that she has a better view of women. Below the black suit is a thin silk blouse, a short skirt to the knee plus translucent black silk and high heels, the facial features are very delicate, there is no expression on the face, the cold beauty is provocative and unbearable. Want to conquer her.
"Hopefully not next time." Charlize, who was still writing and drawing with his head down, said this.
This slightly commanding tone made Fassbender raise an eyebrow, but he didn't say anything, just snorted in his heart.
"Okay, since everyone is here, let’s start." Finally, the glamorous iceberg girl who wrote something put down her pen. "First introduce yourself, I am Charlize? Theron , The new director of the planning department, has been a secretary assistant for seven years beside Mr. Adrian?Kewell before taking over this position. I neither know nor want to know what you are thinking, I only hope that everyone can work hard. As a planning Departments, we need a wealth of imagination, and we also need the ability to turn imagination into reality. The planning department has created a lot of valuable things. I don’t think you want to see yourself doing nothing, right?"
Nothing new. Listening to Charlize's opening remarks, Fassbender gave her such a comment in her heart, and then underestimated the woman a bit.
"Very good, then let's proceed to the second issue," Charliez, who had not answered for a moment, spoke again, and the cold expression on his face had hardly changed, as if he didn't see the strange atmosphere in the conference room. "Regarding the planning book I gave to you, I believe everyone has read it. Does anyone have any questions?"
No one answered. Even if there were a few staff members looking around, they quickly recovered the appearance of drooping eyelids. Faced with this situation, Fassbinder was also a little dissatisfied, and immediately looked at the assistant sitting next to him.
A slight, undetectable bitter smile quickly from Jeff? Fairman scratched his face, and then he coughed softly: "Frankly, Miss Charlize, although I think the plan as a whole is very new, but in fact it is not too operable, the audience We like to stimulate drama, not just singing and dancing..."
“That’s why the planning book is handed over to everyone for reading,” Charlize said quickly. “No matter how broad a person’s perspective is, there are limits to genius, so we always need more. It’s also the reason why the planning department exists. It’s also the reason why the planning department exists. If you think it’s not exciting enough, Mr. Jeff, you can say what to do to attract the audience. If you just think it’s not enough to attract the audience, it’s not enough.”
"Um...this..." Fairman smiled bitterly, "About this, you can make an essay on the singer's...um... promotion, for example, you must upgrade because you cannot upgrade for various reasons, and you must also Invite some big-name celebrities to be judges... Frankly speaking, it requires a lot of investment. There are a lot of reality shows in the company, and no such big investment is needed."
"The front is very good, but the back is still very general," Charlize said unhurriedly. "How much does it need to invest? What is the specific situation of the prospect? Where can it cause losses?"
"This..." A fine sweat bead came from Fairman's head, and I didn't know how to answer for a while.
Fasbinder glanced at him with dissatisfaction, then scanned the staff who were sitting silently in their place, and then took over the topic: "No need, Miss Charlize, some creatives only A little glance is enough for us to draw conclusions. The problem with this program lies in two points. One is that the investment is too large, and the other is that the stage is too limited. If it is placed two or three years ago, it may be worth the company’s investment. It's late."
"Have you read my planning book in detail, Mr. Sean." Charlize didn't care about his remarks, but asked directly, and at the same time, her eyes also changed a little, and was cold. There was a little more sarcasm and mockery.
This makes Fassbender very upset. He thinks that his speech is already graceful enough. If the woman knows, she should follow it and announce the meeting. But she actually asked such questions and made such an expression. What did she want to do? Do you really think that you can really take the responsibility of the director of the planning department?
"I will not change my opinion," he said in an impatient tone, while waving his hand, as if catching a fly, "This plan is not bad, Miss Charlize, as For you who have no higher education, it is already very good to be able to do this, but I believe everyone here will agree with me."
After he finished, he glanced at the meeting room proudly. Although some people were exchanging their eyes and some people were moving slightly, no one said a word.
"You haven't answered my question, Mr. Sean." However, to many people's surprise, Charlize was not angry at all, and still asked in a cold, slightly ironic tone, "You detailed Have you seen my planning book?"
Is this woman an idiot? Fassbender was a little annoyed. Since he even said such words as "not highly educated," he basically broke his face, so he answered without hesitation: "No, no need."
"Then I can understand that you made this decision after not understanding and studying this planning book in detail, right?" The sarcasm is more obvious, especially with a kind of condescending The feeling, he couldn't help making Fassbinder's head bang, he almost blurted out: "Yes!"
Yes, that’s it, so what? He looked at Charlize with a sneer, a stern look. Many people lowered their heads again, not knowing if they were sorry for the new supervisor or mocking her overwhelming.
"So, from now on, you can stop working." Such a sentence immediately spit out from Charlize's mouth, and then turned her back to say hello to her secretary: "Eleanor, call to let Norman of the Security Department? Mr. Patrick brought a few people up."
Until this time, the people in the meeting room reacted and looked at Charlize sitting in shock.
"Are you an idiot?" Fassbinder blushed and glared angrily at Charlize, as if wishing to eat her, "Dismiss me? Who do you think you are?!"
This is a complete humiliation. Although she knows that she is not qualified to dismiss herself, in Fassbender’s opinion, to say something like this on this occasion is a challenge to him and naked humiliation! He must let this woman know that she has made him angry, she must pay the price! Only, will he have such an opportunity?
"Before I came, Mr. Adrian? Kewell, Mr. Claude? Ron Rees, Mr. Anthony? Des, Mr. William? Arden, and the board of directors have authorized me to take full power Handle the affairs of the Planning Department, including appointments and removals," Charlize said in a cold tone that has remained constant for thousands of years,
Suddenly, an inhalation sound rang unevenly, and everyone's eyes began to flicker. There is no need to lie to Charlie, or to tell such a lie that can be dismantled. Besides, among the few people she exemplified, the chairman of the board of directors, Adrian, can dismiss Fassbender as long as he expresses his support. , Not to mention William? Arden, the uncle of Farspind!
Fasbinder’s face was blue and red, and he stared at Charlize’s eyes round and shivering his lips for a long moment before speaking.
"You lie!" The voice seemed to squeeze out of his throat. He took a deep breath forcibly, and his forehead was straight, giving the illusion that it would break at any time.
"Anyone who has doubts can consult with them for verification." Charlize is still so breezy, in stark contrast to the angry Fassbender.
The staff present couldn’t help but feel some sympathy. No one expected that the chairman of the board of directors would support this woman to this point. Of course, it’s more gloating, and Mr. Bruto will finally have this time. .
At this time, the knock on the door rang, and then Norman, the head of the security department? Patrick appeared at the door of the meeting room with two security guards: "Is there anything you want, Miss Charlize?"
"Sean? Mr. Fassbender is no longer an employee of the company. Let the two security guards accompany him to pack things." Charlize said casually, as if Fassbender was just a trivial little character.
Patrick hesitated, but then made a gesture to the security guard behind him. A white man and a black man came behind Fassbender one after another and made a gesture of invitation together. This is the case for American companies. Once the employee is fired, he is immediately ordered to pack and leave, and the bodyguard must also be supervised, on the grounds that he is afraid of the dismissed employee's dissatisfaction and secretly causing damage. There is no one-month notice here, and then leave Enough time to let the dismissed person find a job.
Fassbender touched his teeth hard, breathed heavily, and finally stood up with a trembling moment.
"You bitch, but only accompany the man to bed before climbing to this position, what other ability do you have besides this!" he said with a defiant vicious curse.
"It's a pity you can't do that." Charlize said lightly.
Suddenly, Fassbinder seemed to be pinched in his throat, blushing and unable to speak anymore. The people around him all had a weird complexion. They seemed to want to laugh but didn’t dare to laugh. In the end, he had some Stumbled out.
"Did anyone else read my plan book in detail?" After the poor former deputy director left, Charlize threw out the previous question again, and the atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly became solemn and dull, present. All of the staff started to get up carefully~IndoMTL.com~ Just know that few of them have said good things to the new supervisor just now.
However, Charlize said nothing, but waited patiently. After a while, a clerk raised his hand hesitantly.
"Edward? Hubble." Charlize nodded. "Is there any?"
Another clerk raised his hand slowly.
"Julie Anne? Harrington, great," Charliz nodded again, "is there any?"
No one raised his hand this time, so after ten minutes, the new supervisor closed the folder in front of him: "So, today’s meeting is over. Please remember to read the plan book in detail. In addition, Edward, Julie Anne and Jeff came to my office."
Everyone here breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked enviously and jealously at the three people named, especially Jeff? Fairman, you know he is Fassbinder's assistant! Look again at the always indifferent, orderly packing up his things and calmly leaving the conference room, as if everything is under control, like an iceberg as unattainable Charlize? Theron, people involuntarily came up with a word: Queen!
