Shi Xirou came to the practice room. Even though the air conditioner was on, the trainees were sweating on their faces as they practiced their dance steps non-stop.
"Pause for a moment, I have something to tell you."
The trainees lined up obediently and looked at Shi Xirou nervously.
"Your senior sisters will finish recording tomorrow morning. I plan to invite them to be your resident guests for the month-end evaluation."
Zhuo Yang was surprised and said, "There are also resident guests? Isn't the end-of-month evaluation held in the practice room?"
Shi Xirou smiled wickedly, "Of course not. I forgot to tell you that I've reserved the basement theater at the Performing Arts Center for this month-end evaluation. I'll invite your parents and some of your fans on the Phoenix app today. They'll give you grades and write reviews."
Xia Weiqing: "Boss, I heard that the theater can accommodate more than 2,000 people. Is it going to be full?"
Wei Jibei: "That's a lot of people, isn't it?"
"A lot? I don't think so. If you succeed, you'll meet more people in the future. Wouldn't that make you afraid to step onto the stage?"
"... Dare, Boss, this is too sudden. We, I'm afraid of making mistakes."
"If you're afraid of making mistakes, practice hard these next few days!" Li Anni came over and said, "I think the boss's decision is a good one. Let's see what happens when you're at your most nervous."
"The original plan for the 26th remains unchanged after the month-end review. The performance will be from 6 to 8 pm. We won't be filling the seats, and we're only inviting 1,000 fans." Shi Xirou hesitated slightly when she said this. "I think 1,000 fans should be able to come."
Guo Zixi: "Yes, just based on Senior Sister's 20 million fans, I'm afraid we'll have to fight for a spot."
"Indeed, in addition to your group dance and individual talent shows, the performance will include an opening performance with your senior sisters, and your senior sister will perform the closing."
Li Anni agreed: "Well, the boss means that everyone here is a fan of my senior sister, so we should at least give them something good to watch. We can't let them come in vain."
Zhuo Yang: "Teacher, what you said is really hurtful."
Shi Xirou's eyes curved into crescents. "Yes, you guys should work harder and not hold your senior sisters back. Sister Annie, come with me and have a quick meeting with Ma Bu."
As the two bosses walked away, all sorts of strange noises rang out from the practice room. Zhuo Yang grabbed his hair and collapsed, saying, "It's over! I'm even more stressed!"
Feng Guankai looked pessimistic: "I heard that the senior sisters can learn the movements of a song in less than five minutes. Will we be laughed at for being so slow?"
Gan Lanzhao: "I'm starting to get nervous."
Xiao Yu: "Me too. I'm so afraid that fans will give me low scores. I don't want to leave. The company's conditions are too good. I can't be eliminated."
Xie Yanzhi: "If you're eliminated, you can't eat in the cafeteria. I heard Uncle Li calling someone yesterday. It seems that the cafeteria is having an all-beef feast today. No other meat dishes will be ordered. Just fruit and some vegetables."
Zhuo Yang: "Fuck, I'm going to die of starvation today!"
Feng Guankai: "There are still more than ten minutes to eat, huhuhuhu."
Wei Jibei: ...
Look, do these people look like they are under too much pressure?
——
In the cafeteria on the seventh floor, Zhang Yiwei was the first to enjoy the all-meat feast.
When Bai Yang mocked him for staying in the bushes to recuperate after giving birth, Shi Xirou assigned him a task: to move several boxes of Warcraft meat and smoked chicken. After that, he stopped playing games and took up a knife to work part-time as a laborer.
Spicy and fragrant boiled beef slices, incredibly tender beef scrambled eggs, vibrant tomato and potato beef stew, incredibly delicious stir-fried beef with pickled mustard greens, sweet and refreshing loofah, beef, and mushroom soup, cumin beef skewers sprinkled with sesame seeds...
Tears streamed down the employees' faces. They hadn't even had a full breakfast just for this bite of lunch.
"The boss said that before leaving get off work, everyone should go to the cafeteria to get a steak and take it home for the elderly and children to try."
"Alas!"
Yao Liqin looked at the cheering people in front of him with sarcasm and a hint of pity. It's just a steak. I've never eaten it before. Is it that exaggerated? Does this company only recruit employees with histrionic personalities?
Also, those are celebrities, right? Is there no one to care if they eat so much?
There were two strangers following Manager Qi. It seemed like they were sent by a large company.
A few employees who had just finished serving food didn't miss Yao Liqin's gaze, their faces falling. What did that fat, big-eared guy mean? Did he look down on us? Furious, they chose to be angry and cowardly, rolling their eyes at the empty space.
Yao Liqin added a mental note about Fire Phoenix: "It's mismanaged. If they don't control their artists' diets and teach them how to manage their expressions, this company won't last long."
After he tasted the braised beef, Yao Liqin's expression became strange. Qi Xuan asked him sinisterly, "Manager Yao, is this dish not to your liking?"
Yao Liqin swallowed the meat with difficulty and shook his head: "No, it's quite delicious."
He unnaturally picked up his phone and sent a message to Ren Xinghe, who was leisurely eating next to him. "Mr. Ren, don't eat anymore! I suspect there's poppy in these dishes! It's addictive! Let's find a reason to go back."
Ren Xinghe's phone vibrated, and after seeing the message, he seriously wondered if Yao Liqin had a mental problem. Just as he chose to read the message without replying, Shi Xirou, who had just finished discussing the performance, came into the cafeteria.
Seeing Shi Xirou carrying the dishes to another corner, Ren Xinghe said to Qi Xuan, "Excuse me, I want to talk to your Director Shi about some private matters." After that, he picked up his phone and left with the cutlery.
Qi Xuan, who understood the subtext, took a big sip of soup in anger. Yao Liqin seemed to be hesitant to speak, staring at the dish in front of him with complicated eyes.
Qi Xuan took out his anger on him and showed the payment code. "Manager Yao, our company advocates thrift and diligence. Wasting food will result in a fine of 5,000 yuan."
