An hour later, Li Dong returned to the office after the meeting.
Li Dong was stunned the moment he entered the office.
Is this really my office?
Looking back at the door, Li Dong's face darkened. "Chen Ke, come in!"
Chen Ke entered the door cautiously and asked, "General Manager Li, are you looking for me?"
"What do you think?"
Li Dong pointed at the messy office. "Didn't I ask you to look after her before I left? What's going on? "
Chen Ke wanted to cry but had no tears. "Manager Li, I really can't stand it anymore. Miss Hu sat in the office for a while. She felt that the office was too stifling and insisted on getting someone to rearrange it. You were in a meeting at that time, so I didn't want to disturb you. So … "
"So I can have a party in my office now?"
Li Dong snorted and looked at the workers who were arranging the balloon ribbons. He waved his hand. "Get them to remove the ribbons. What are they doing? People will laugh at them if they see it!"
Chen Ke stole a glance at him and whispered, "General Manager Li, I think it's fine. Why don't you leave the flower pots behind?"
Li Dong looked at the few pots of flowers in the office. It seemed that they were more pleasing to the eye, and there was more vitality in the office. He nodded and said, "Leave the flowers. Remove the other things for me. By the way, where's Hu Xiaorui? "
"Miss Hu …"
Chen Ke looked around the office and said, "She should be in the break room. She didn't go out. I'm watching outside."
Li Dong rubbed his head and said as he walked, "Get these people to clean up first. I'll go in and take a look. Next time, don't touch my office without my permission. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
Li Dong didn't say anything else and entered the break room in the office.
Because Li Dong had been in the company for a long time, his break room was quite luxurious. It was spacious and sunny.
When he entered the room, Hu Xiaorui was lying on the sofa, reading a book.
Li Dong coughed softly. Hu Xiaorui turned back to look at him, then continued to read.
Li Dong was a little speechless. "Xiaorui, what are you doing? I just left for a while, and you made a mess in the office."
Hu Xiaorui came back to her senses and immediately got up. She said excitedly, "Don't I look much better? You're too depressed. It's not good at all. I'll help you redecorate it. I'm paying for it myself. Aren't you touched? "
"Touched my ass!"
Li Dong was speechless. "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. What were you looking at just now?"
"Storybooks."
"Storybook? You brought it here? "
"No, it's in your office."
Li Dong was confused. There was a storybook in his office?
He took a look. When he saw what Hu Xiaorui was reading, Li Dong slapped his forehead and said, "Damn, I almost messed things up. Fortunately, you found it."
Hu Xiaorui was not reading a storybook, but the script for "Blessed Ears" that Zhang Meng had left behind.
Li Dong had almost forgotten about it as he had been too busy for the past few days.
Zhang Meng was still waiting for a reply in Pingchuan. If Hu Xiaorui had not found the script, Li Dong would have forgotten about it.
Seeing Hu Xiaorui reading it seriously, Li Dong laughed and said, "How is this a storybook? Don't you understand the script? It's used in movies."
Hu Xiaorui said with some contempt, "Do you think I'm stupid? How can I not know this is a script? So what if it's a script? A script is also a story. Why can't I understand it? "
"I …"
Li Dong said with a headache, "Forget it, it's useless to talk about this with you. A girl like you probably can't do anything other than reading stories."
Hu Xiaorui pouted and said angrily, "You're looking down on me! You're the one pretending to know. Isn't watching a movie to watch a story? If the story isn't well written, who would watch it? How dare you look down on me. I'm not looking down on you, but you're looking down on me. I'm angry! "
"I'm not looking down on you …"
"You're just looking down on me!" Hu Xiaorui said angrily.
"I'm really not!"
"I am!"
Li Dong realized that he could not talk things out with this girl. He said with some frustration, "Fine, fine, fine. It's my fault. Let's not argue about this."
"It's your fault to begin with!" Hu Xiaorui said with some pride, "I'm a genius girl. I'm much smarter than you. If anyone is to be looked down on, it should be me looking down on you."
Li Dong's face darkened as he said with a dark expression, "Can you be a little more shameless?"
Genius girl? This girl was really becoming more and more narcissistic.
Hu Xiaorui mumbled, "It's not like I said it. Everyone else said it, alright?"
"Who has such bad taste?" Li Dong teased. Hu Xiaorui continued, "Many people. My parents, and my uncle all said the same thing. My classmates and teachers also said the same thing. I'm a genius girl to begin with. "
"Fine, you really took it seriously." Li Dong laughed. He felt that this girl was really naive.
She was praised because of her family background. Only this girl still remembered it in her heart.
Seeing that she was looked down upon by Li Dong several times, Hu Xiaorui was a little angry. She said with grievance, "It's true! When I was in school, I was always first in the class. It was the same when I was in the juvenile class. In the college, I was always first! I only got second once. That was because I was sick and didn't do well. "
"Really?" Li Dong laughed, "Just you …."
Halfway through his sentence, Li Dong suddenly reacted and said, "Wait, what's the junior class?"
"Juvenile class is juvenile class." Hu Xiaorui pouted.
Li Dong said with slight hesitation, "Ke Da juvenile class?"
"Yes."
"You're a university student?"
Hu Xiaorui glared at him without saying anything.
Li Dong, on the other hand, was stunned. After a long while, he said, "Aren't you a dropout? Ke Da juvenile class …. "
Ke Da juvenile class's reputation was not small. Maybe Ke Da could not compare to the two high schools in Beijing, or even some other high schools.
But the members of Ke Da juvenile class, no one could deny that they were geniuses.
These genius boys and girls, if they did not enter Ke Da juvenile class and took the college entrance exam, they might not be 100% sure that they would be able to pass the two high schools, but they would definitely pass half of it.
In the past, Li Dong had always thought that Hu Xiaorui had dropped out of school. After all, Hu Xiaorui was still young. From the time Li Dong knew her, Hu Xiaorui had been fooling around outside all day.
In addition, Hu Xiaorui had some small mental problems. Li Dong had never mentioned this before. But today, Li Dong finally knew that this girl was actually a genius in studies.
Seeing him in a daze, Hu Xiaorui said with some pride, "Now you know how amazing I am! Do you think I'm as stupid as you? I entered the juvenile class when I was 16 years old. I graduated from university the year before last. At that time, you had just entered university. Really embarrassing! "
Li Dong smiled bitterly. This slap to the face, he had no way to refute it.
If he had not been reborn, he would not even be able to get into Jiangzhou University. How could he refute it?
Seeing Li Dong's hurt expression, Hu Xiaorui giggled, "Li Dong, don't be sad. Although you're a bit stupid, I won't look down on you."
Li Dong said unhappily, "Go to hell. How am I stupid? Jiangzhou University is also a key university. I'm also a top student. Don't look down on me. "
Hu Xiaorui giggled again. After a while, Hu Xiaorui said, "Li Dong, are you going to make a movie?"
Li Dong looked at the script in her hand and shook his head, "I had thought about it before, but I've been busy recently. I can't be bothered to do it."
When he accepted the script for Blessed with Ears, Li Dong was really prepared to invest in it.
It was not to make money. It was mainly to get some information and make some connections. It was to pave the way for Far away to enter the film and television industry in the future.
However, he was busy now. Li Dong decided to put it aside.
It was not a famous movie anyway. Zhang Meng was not a famous director. He was not even a director now. It did not matter if he invested or not.
Hearing Li Dong say this, Hu Xiaorui quickly said, "Don't. I want to see how movies are made. Li Dong, are you short of money? If you don't, I can pay for it. Let's make a movie for fun, okay? "
"You'll pay?" Li Dong looked at her and said, "You can pay for it. You can invest it yourself. Why are you asking me? It's a low-budget movie anyway. You don't lack money. "
A few million was nothing to Hu Xiaorui.
Hu Ming really granted his precious daughter's request. Not to mention a few million, even tens of millions would not be a problem.
Hu Xiaorui shook her head and said, "It's not about money. It's boring for me to play alone. Li Dong, let's do it together?"
"Play …"
Li Dong smiled bitterly, but Hu Xiaorui was right. For her, investing in movies was probably just for fun.
Unlike Li Dong, everything he did was to make money. He prioritized benefits.
Even if he invested in a movie, the first thing that Li Dong thought about was whether it could make money. As for playing, Li Dong really didn't think about it.
Seeing that Hu Xiaorui seemed to be interested, Li Dong thought about it and said, "If you really want to play, then play. But I don't have much time to ask about the movie. You can't just leave it at that time. It's an investment of a few million. Lass, don't treat money like it's nothing. "
Li Dong didn't really care about the few million. He just wanted to find something for Hu Xiaorui to do.
Now that Zhou Lele and Zhang Lanyu were not in Pingchuan, he didn't know when they would return.
If he couldn't find them, Hu Xiaorui said that Li Dong was her only friend in Pingchuan. She would definitely come to trouble him in the future.
Li Dong was busy during this period and didn't have much time to fool around with this lass. He might as well send her to trouble other people.
Hearing that Li Dong agreed, Hu Xiaorui hurriedly said, "Okay, I definitely won't quit. I, Hu Xiaorui, am not that kind of person!"
Li Dong rolled his eyes. You are not that kind of person. Which thing can you do till the end?
It was the same with the Dessert House. He asked her to help him keep an eye on it, and she came back.
Investing in a movie now was just a temporary interest for her. When she lost interest, she would surely quit.
But Li Dong was used to it. He said perfunctorily, "Then it's settled. I will talk to the director tomorrow. You can start work after the discussion."
"Okay!"
Hu Xiaorui agreed readily. Li Dong only hoped that this lass could maintain her interest until Zhang Lanyu and the rest came back.
