Chapter 157 – Inviting Hanks
Hearing Zhao Tinghai’s words, Ye Fei blushed.
“Uncle Zhao, what are you talking about? Bell is so young.
And how did it suddenly relate to me?”
Ye Fei rolled her eyes at Zhao Tinghai angrily and returned to the villa.
Seeing Ye Fei like this, Zhao Tinghai laughed and shook his head. Then, he got into the car and left the villa.
The night passed peacefully.
When Bell woke up again, he was already lying on the comfortable bed in Scarlett’s house.
As soon as he woke up, he smelled the fragrance of food.
He followed the smell.
Downstairs, Keira, Scarlett, Li Ziqi, and others were gathered around the table, except for Bell.
“Since you’re awake, wash up and join us.”
Hearing footsteps, Li Ziqi looked upstairs and saw that Bell was awake.
Breakfast was cooked by Li Ziqi herself, and it was mostly Chinese.
Bell had a satisfying meal after a long time.
Seeing Bell wolfing down the food, Li Ziqi smiled in satisfaction.
“I’m done eating.”
“Didn’t Scarlett Johansson call me earlier to say that the problem of my manager has not been resolved?
I’ll see if I can invite Hanks over. ”
“Have you really decided on Hanks? Aren’t you going to consider it?”
Scarlett looked at Bell and confirmed again.
Bell nodded.
“I’ve already decided on this.
“But if you have a better candidate, you can let them compete.”
Scarlett and the others looked at each other and said nothing.
After all, they were talking about the position of Bell’s manager who would have to follow Bell everywhere and also manage his videos.
If the choice was not according to Bell’s will, it was easy to have a conflict. It would not be worth it.
Although Hanks was a subordinate of their rival company, Bell, as the company’s main boss, insisted on recommending him. They had to give Hanks a chance.
After returning to his room, Bell calculated the time and confirmed that the other party should be resting. He called Hanks.
“Hello, Mr. Bell. I didn’t expect you to call me again.”
Hanks sounded surprised.
After all, the company had such a huge conflict with Bell before, Hanks had thought that the two sides would never interact again.
Unexpectedly, Bell took the initiative to call him.
When he had seen the phone number, Hanks was shocked. He thought that he had seen wrongly.
Only after confirming it repeatedly, he answered the call. Of course, he did not remain in the office, instead, he quietly found a secluded place.
Hearing Hanks’s nervous tone, Bell smiled. He could already guess what his expression looked like.
He must be hiding in a corner, carefully answering the call.
“Hehe, no need to be so surprised. Didn’t we have a good time working together?
How have you been? How’s work? ”
Bell asked casually.
Hanks sighed.
“Sigh, it’s not like you don’t know about the company’s situation. It’s just the same. After you left, I returned to my position as chief editor.”
Hanks naturally did not say anything bad about the company, but he sounded disappointed.
Chief editor’s position was much higher than the video editing position, but the problem was that he did not have high income support.
After all, he was already a middle-aged man who was close to forty years old. He was already past his age to try new endeavors.
He only wanted to support his family and earn money.
He had thought that Bell was his life’s opportunity. After all, Bell’s potential was very high.
Back then, Hanks had wanted to take a gamble and bet his life on Bell.
As long as Bell could make a name for himself, Hanks could also earn a lot in a few years and retire.
But this series of plans was finally broken by the company’s higher-ups.
Bell was indeed popular, and the kind that made people turn purple.
Not everyone could achieve 70 million fans. In fact, there were very few who could reach this level in the entire industry.
Bell was the only one in the wilderness survival theme.
But the key problem was that this had nothing to do with Hanks.
The company cut off all contact with Bell, and he chose to stay in the company.
Hanks could only feel vexed that he had missed the greatest opportunity of his life.
If he were given another chance, he would definitely choose to support Bell without hesitation, but it was too late to say anything now.
Bell’s company had already broken through the crisis, and their status in the industry was no longer the same as before.
It was not easy to enter Bell’s company, especially for someone like him who was in the enemy company.
Although Hanks had given Bell some hints, Hanks felt that these were not enough reasons for Bell to help him.
Bell also heard Hanks’s disappointed smile.
This was the effect he wanted.
“If you’re not busy, why don’t you come over to my place? Speaking of which, it’s been a while.”
Bell said calmly.
But the flat words made Hanks shiver.
What was going on? Was Bell inviting him?
No, no, it might just be a chat.
How could Bell lack employees with his reputation? Was there a need to invite him personally?
Hanks did not think he had that much prestige.
Hanks’s mind fell into chaos.
He forgot to reply to Bell.
Hearing no response from Hanks, Bell asked impatiently.
“How is it? Do you have time? If not, forget it.”
Although he had the intention to recruit Hanks, he could not force it. If the other party did not want it, Bell would naturally not insist on it.
Hanks reacted and quickly said.
“Oh, yes, yes. Sorry, I was a little dazed earlier.
I have time, I have time.”
“You decide the time. Where are you now, Bell? I’ll book a flight.”
After coming to his senses, Hanks was clearly very excited.
After obtaining a satisfying reply, Bell nodded and immediately informed Hanks of his location. He arranged the meeting to be next week.
Then, the two of them hung up.
