After Jiang Shunan died, he discovered that the world he lived in was actually an old-fashioned abusive novel. His child, Jiang Yunnuo, turned out to be the protagonist (shou) of the abusive novel....
Chapter 11 Genius Nuonuo Jiang Shunian and Jiang Yunnuo officially join "Treasure..."
Jiang Shunian was caught off guard by this huge surprise and was a little slow to react.
But Jiang Yunuo, who was in his arms, held up a lollipop and peeked out to examine it carefully: "Baby Travel Plan, Uncle, does 'baby' refer to a little child?"
Pei Qingyi looked at Nuonuo in surprise: "You can read?"
"I know a few," Jiang Yunnuo said, a little shy but also a little proud, "but not many, and I still need to continue learning."
Pei Qingyi's gaze towards Jiang Yunnuo brightened. In his opinion, this child had great potential to become a sensation. Putting aside everything else, her appearance alone was enough to attract attention. Moreover, she could recognize characters at the age of three, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a child prodigy.
He simply spoke directly to Jiang Yunuo: "This variety show requires you and your father to participate together. You will travel to various places and experience different customs and cultures. Are you interested?"
Jiang Yunnuo frowned, trying hard to understand Pei Qingyi's meaning. She was overjoyed when she heard that she could participate with her father, but she quickly calmed down and asked cautiously, "Uncle, do we need to pay to participate in this trip?"
He traveled with his father before, which required money.
Although he really wanted to travel with his dad, he didn't want to spend the money.
Pei Qingyi was amused by Nuonuo's childlike words: "You don't need to pay money, on the contrary, you can make money."
make money?
Jiang Yunnuo's little ears perked up, and her eyes sparkled: "Can I make money too?"
"Of course, you will also receive compensation if you participate in this program."
Jiang Yunnuo was even happier, looking up at his father with a face full of anticipation. He wanted to go!
As Jiang Shunian listened to their conversation, he pondered whether or not to accept the variety show offer.
The last time Nuonuo unexpectedly trended on social media, it was taken down in time, and most of the comments were from his fans who were defending him. Jiang Shunian didn't see many negative comments, but he was unsure whether Nuonuo would face malicious attacks if he were to be exposed to the public.
After all, in the first season last year, there was a child who was a bit spoiled at first, and as a result, he was criticized by netizens for a long time. Later, the production team changed the editing style, and the public opinion turned around.
Therefore, if you participate, the production team needs to treat you fairly and not edit the footage haphazardly, turning you into a control group.
Although this variety show is very much needed for him and is a great opportunity for exposure, everything should prioritize Nuonuo's physical and mental health.
Jiang Shunian did not agree immediately, but asked, "President Pei, can I discuss this with Nuonuo and then give you an answer?"
"sure."
After coming out, Nuonuo asked Jiang Shunian in confusion, "Dad, why didn't you agree to Uncle's request? I want to earn money to support you."
Nono's wish is simple: to be with her father and work hard to earn money.
Jiang Shunian knew that Nuonuo was a precocious and sensible child, so he spoke in a consultative tone: "Nuonuo, if you participate in a variety show, it's like showing your life to others. Some people will like you, and some people will dislike you, and some might even say bad things about you. Can you handle that?"
Nono blinked and asked Jiang Shunian, "Will Dad dislike me because they say bad things about me?"
"How could that be? Daddy will always love you the most, no matter what Nuonuo is like, Daddy will always love you."
Nono is the love of his life, without exception.
Jiang Yunnuo smiled happily, her eyes crinkling: "Me too, I love Dad the most! Dad, let's participate! It's okay if people don't like me, let's make money first."
Jiang Shunian: "..."
He began to suspect that his eagerness to make money had misled Nuonuo, causing him to develop in the direction of greed.
Because of Nuonuo's insistence, Jiang Shunian finally accepted the variety show and signed a contract with Huazhen Media, also receiving an A-level contract.
Furthermore, Pei Qingyi also signed Nuonuo, but under Jiang Shunian's guardianship. The terms are very lenient, which makes it easier for her to sign with the program team.
And so, he and Nono became colleagues.
Because Pei Qingyi just took over Huazhen, she had previously fired many agents, resulting in a shortage of manpower. Pei Qingyi has arranged for people to train and discover new agents. For the time being, Yu Yanchen and Jiang Shunian are under the same agent named Zhao Yuanzhou. His abilities and resources are not outstanding, but he is honest and respects the artists' ideas. At the same time, he can also help the artists make accurate choices.
Zhao Yuanzhou is nearly forty years old this year, but he is rather thin and wears black-rimmed glasses. He looks more like a university professor than an agent.
He met with Jiang Shunian, and the two discussed the current situation and future development plans. Since Jiang Shunian was going to participate in a variety show, Zhao Yuanzhou suggested waiting until the show aired to see how Jiang Shunian's popularity changed, so that she would have more opportunities to take on roles.
This aligns with Jiang Shunian's thinking.
"We also need to assign you an assistant. Do you have a suitable one?" Zhao Yuanzhou asked.
Jiang Shunian shook his head. He was an orphan, unlike Yu Yanchen who had a cousin.
Four years ago, he also had an assistant, but that assistant colluded with his agent to betray him, and he had long since deleted those people's contact information.
"Then the company will arrange it. Would you prefer a male or female assistant?"
"The female assistant, I suppose."
Jiang Shunian felt that girls would be more gentle and considerate, and he needed such an assistant while taking care of Nuonuo.
Zhao Yuanzhou agreed.
The company also provides accommodation, which Jiang Shunian can choose for herself. Without hesitation, Jiang Shunian chose the same neighborhood as Yu Yanchen.
The community offers excellent privacy and is not in a remote location. There is also a well-known international school nearby, where students can study from kindergarten to high school. If they need to apply to universities abroad, they can also get internal recommendations.
The tuition is naturally expensive, at 300,000 yuan a year. Without a source of income, Jiang Shunian's savings would only be enough to cover one year's tuition.
But as parents, they want to give their children the best. Jiang Shunian decided that he must work hard to take on acting roles and earn more money to send Nuonuo to the best schools.
For the next two weeks, Jiang Shunian was busy moving. He quickly booked a place to live, which happened to be right downstairs from Yu Yanchen's apartment, which was very convenient.
An assistant has also been found. She is a young woman named Li Hehe who just graduated from university. She majored in foreign languages. Because she didn't study hard enough, she couldn't find a good job, so she switched careers to become a celebrity assistant.
She was plump and cute, with a bright smile and a somewhat lively personality. Her eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Shunian: "Brother Jiang, is your appearance even real?!"
Upon seeing Jiang Yunnuo again, they exclaimed that they were completely charmed by her.
After carefully examining her eyes and confirming that they were pure and honest and that she genuinely liked Nuonuo, Jiang Shunian made the decision.
Nono also likes this new older sister very much.
Li Hehe doesn't have much work right now, since Jiang Shunian can cook, and Jiang Shunian doesn't have any other work at the company. She's just waiting for them to finish their discussions so she can start filming a variety show, so they gave her a break.
The little girl happily ran off after saying that she would be available anytime, even on her days off.
Filming for "Nine Heavens Palace" has been completed and is now in post-production. It is expected to air at the end of the year. On the other hand, the approval process for "Starlight for You" is simple. It is a modern drama and does not require any special effects. It is expected to be broadcast on the platform in about two or three months.
This drama is very novel, with a subject matter that has never been seen before. It is highly regarded by investors, and a broadcast schedule has been arranged for it to air during the summer.
Once everything was settled, the agent also sent word that Hua Zhen had almost finished negotiating with the TV station, and all Jiang Shunian needed to do was bring Nuonuo to meet with the production team in advance to sign the contract.
Because of the show's huge success last year, the production team is planning to continue it this year. All preparations are in place, and only the selection of celebrities and children remains.
Jiang Shunian and Nuonuo wore matching outfits and went to the TV station with Zhao Yuanzhou.
Nuonuo didn't let Jiang Shunian carry her. Like a little gas cylinder, she followed closely beside him, curiously looking around at her surroundings, but she didn't make people feel disgusted; she was just cute.
Xie Hualiang, the chief producer and director of the "Baby Travel Plan" program, smiled as soon as he saw Nuonuo: "Teacher Jiang's child is so good-looking."
Her face was fair and tender, and her eyes were big, especially the color of her pupils, which even had a golden hue under the light, like a comic book effect. She was mysterious and beautiful, a typical baby with striking features, and very visually impactful.
Jiang Yunnuo knew this was a compliment, and softly replied, "Thank you, Uncle."
The director said there were many reasons why the show became popular in the first episode. One was that the fathers' approach to raising their children was simply to keep them alive, and their rough handling of the children created many laughs. The other was the children's personalities. In the previous episode, some children had fiery personalities and were naturally funny, while others were spoiled but very polite.
Children can't establish a persona, so sexual homosexuality should be avoided from the very beginning.
Otherwise, the resulting footage will either be either extremely lively and chaotic or completely quiet and uneventful, failing to achieve the desired effect.
Nono has a quiet and sensible personality, and there just happened to be no one with this personality in this episode.
Xie Hualiang asked Nuonuo what special skills she had and what she had learned. Jiang Shunian immediately became nervous. Oh no! He felt that Nuonuo was still too young and it was not suitable for her to learn a lot of things too early, which would reduce her playtime. So he did not enroll her in any extracurricular classes. And he really did not know the level of Nuonuo's self-study ability!
Jiang Shunian clenched his fist nervously, thinking that even if his son just recited a random ancient poem, it would still be amazing.
To everyone's surprise, Nono replied, "Uncle Director, I know some foreign languages."
Xie Hualiang became interested and asked with a smile, "Could you demonstrate?"
Then Jiang Shunian was shocked to see that his daughter Nuonuo spoke fluent and standard English.
Moreover, Jiang Shunian didn't fully understand, only knowing that the boy had probably given a self-introduction.
After finishing her explanation, Nono said somewhat shyly, "Uncle Director, I don't know many Chinese characters because some strokes are quite complicated, but English is simpler, so I've learned more of it."
Jiang Shunian: "..."
He vaguely remembered that when Nuonuo was one or two years old, she liked to watch cartoons, both foreign and domestic ones. She would watch the foreign ones in their original language. Among the pile of learning materials he bought for Nuonuo was a reading pen.
It's confirmed. Nono's intelligence definitely didn't come from him; it must have come from his other father.
Nono's intelligence is also reflected in the book. If it weren't for the scumbag Qin Lang, Nono should have been admitted to a top university, instead of only receiving an ordinary key university admission letter because of his trickery.
Perhaps the author felt that it was more interesting to torment the privileged.
Jiang Shunian lowered his eyes, concealing the hatred within them.
After exchanging a few words with Nuonuo in English, Xie Hualiang's smile deepened, and he praised Jiang Shunian: "Teacher Jiang is very good at educating children. Our filming plan happens to include going abroad, and Nuonuo will definitely shine there."
Jiang Shunian smiled somewhat guiltily, not daring to admit that Nuonuo had taught herself everything and that he couldn't teach her anything.
Unexpectedly, this wonderful misunderstanding led Xie Hualiang to later go live and ask Jiang Shunian and Jiang Yunuo to communicate in English. As a result, Jiang Shunian couldn't understand what Nuonuo was saying and needed Nuonuo to translate for him and teach him how to answer. The huge contrast was hilarious, and Jiang Shunian almost became a comedian.
In short, after the interview, Jiang Shunian and Jiang Yunnuo officially joined the "Baby Travel Plan", and the first episode of filming began ten days later.
