Chapter Forty-Four
Li Nan shook her head, strongly disagreeing, and said, "Why would you want to be a tree? Trees can't move. They can only grow in one place for their entire lives, or if they're lucky, they might be transplanted to another place by humans."
But another possibility is that they would be cut down and burned as timber, or made into wooden furniture or disposable chopsticks. I've always felt that animals that can move are far more advanced than plants that cannot.
Being stuck in one place is extremely passive; you have no choice. If you want to go somewhere else, do you have the means to do so? No, you can only rely on the help of others.
Furthermore, if you have worms on your body, you can only get rid of them by relying on birds; you cannot kill the worms on your own. Your growth depends on the power of countless other beings.
I do agree with your idea of being a wolf. Wolves eat mutton, that's nothing. Humans eat mutton too, there's mutton soup, mutton stew, mutton skewers, whole roasted lamb, and so on. There are so many delicious dishes that can be made from sheep.
I think since wolves like to eat raw meat so much, they probably like the smell of it, unlike humans who need to use seasonings to remove the smell when cooking dishes made with mutton.
Otherwise, it would taste like mutton, which is very unpleasant. Human tastes and wolf tastes are completely different.
Xu Weiwei said seriously, "I don't think there's anything wrong with trees relying on other things. After all, as humans, we are powerless before the age of three. If we don't rely on external forces, it would be difficult for us to survive on our own."
In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with relying on others; on the contrary, it's a kind of luck. The way to spread love in this world is to continuously do good deeds.
You receive kindness, and then extend that kindness to others. Helping others within your means truly brings happiness.
As for wolves, I might have a bias towards them because I think they represent loyalty. In my opinion, wolves and dogs are completely different species.
Of course, wolves are very fierce carnivores, and there are even wolves that eat people, but in most cases, humans still have the ability to protect themselves.
After all, people in ancient times wore coats and clothes made of wolf skin, and people in modern times have also worn them. It's just that I've heard that wolf meat doesn't taste good. Of course, I've never eaten wolf.
Moreover, it is illegal to eat wild animals at will. Wild animals cannot be eaten indiscriminately. Domestic pigs, cattle and sheep have been vaccinated, and the viruses they carry are within a controllable range. If they contract serious infectious diseases, they will be disposed of through disease control and will not be eaten by humans.
Wild animals are different. They carry a lot of viruses and are not subject to inspection and control. If people eat them directly, they will also get those diseases, which will cause uncontrollable consequences.
Besides, how can the meat of wild animals taste as good as the meat of domesticated animals? Wild boar meat, for example, is terribly unpalatable; the fishy smell is impossible to completely remove, and adding more seasonings won't help.
But domesticated pigs, their pork is so delicious! Even with seasoning, it has no gamey smell. And the claim that wild pigs are more nutritious is utterly absurd; anyone who believes that will live a lifetime of misinformation.
Li Nan was quite speechless and said, "You're so knowledgeable about food? Wild boar meat? Do wild boars even exist now? This isn't ancient times; this happened so many years ago. How do you know? You haven't actually eaten wild boar meat, have you?"
Xu Weiwei said proudly, "Don't underestimate me. You know I'm a live streamer, mainly a food streamer. I travel all over the country, eating at various places. I chat with the owners of many old restaurants."
They used to cook with wild boar meat, and they complained to me that the gamey smell couldn't be removed, resulting in a poor taste that customers didn't like. They said it was better to use domesticated pork.
I have never eaten wild boar meat. After all, domesticated pork is readily available now and can be bought with money, no longer requiring ration coupons.
I don't need to suffer. Everyone says wild boar meat isn't tasty anymore, so why would I go looking for it to eat? That would be just plain stupid. I'm not that foolish.
Say no to wild game, starting with me. Domesticated animal meat is delicious, eat more, and love it!!!
Li Jiayi looked behind Lin Xiangshen countless times, but each time her hopes were dashed. This time, Xu Jia didn't come; she had thought her boss would.
After all, Xu Jia had always been Lin Xiangshen's personal assistant. Since Lin Xiangshen entered the entertainment industry, Xu Jia had been by his side and they had basically never been apart.
Why did they separate this time? She sensed something was amiss; something unusual was definitely going on. This didn't make sense. Besides, the boss's arrival was beneficial to her.
As an employee, no matter how much or how well you do your job, it can't compare to showing off in front of the boss. However, there is one point to note: relationships between people are still very much about fate and destiny.
Even if someone has exceptional personal abilities and achieves outstanding results for the company, they cannot be promoted or receive a raise if the boss doesn't approve.
Sometimes interviews are like this: it's not about who is the most outstanding, but who is the best at bluffing. Eloquence is still very important.
Like two milk tea shops, one of which has a particularly aloof staff who don't greet customers when they come in, while the other is very enthusiastic and will smile even if customers just come in to look around and don't buy anything.
The result was obvious: the former's business was struggling, while the latter's was booming. The key to doing business is to welcome customers. Even if they don't buy anything this time, a good attitude might get them to come back and buy next time.
Moreover, when people come in, their energy follows, creating a flow of energy. Business thrives on the movement of energy fields; it cannot be completely static.
On the surface, it might seem like you've been too hospitable to the person who didn't buy anything, and that you've gained nothing, or even lost out. But in reality, you've actually benefited, though you're unaware of it.
Some people with low moral character even criticize customers who come into the store but don't buy anything, saying things like, "Why are you even in the store if you don't have money?" They vent their frustrations with all sorts of nonsense.
Furthermore, if the staff in a store have unpleasant expressions, do you think that store can do well? Of course not.
The saying "good fortune brings wealth" implies that wealth and luck come one after another. When someone has wealth, their luck will inevitably be good as well. If someone has particularly bad luck, they will not have wealth but will instead lose it.
But don't worry if you lose money. Actually, it's a good thing. What you give up this time, you won't have to give up next time. If you hold on to what you should have given up, the losses later will be even greater.
Like the couple who were abused by the husband, who also cheated on her with another woman and wanted to divorce her and marry her. The woman disagreed with the divorce, partly because she couldn't bear to leave him, and partly because she felt she couldn't let the other woman have it.
Later, the man started smoking, drinking, and gambling, accumulating a large debt. Even when she wanted to break up with him, her husband wouldn't let her go and refused to divorce her.
Sometimes, the right timing is crucial; if you miss it, it becomes extremely difficult to do it again.
Nobody likes someone who's overly preachy, and for Li Jiayi, Xu Jia was the perfect boss, not to mention the high salary he paid her.
All her work arrangements were non-commanding; she made all the decisions. The only special request she made was regarding Lin Xiangshen's affairs, not her own.
Such a wonderful boss is rare; she's lucky to have found one. After all, she has a particularly short temper, likes to speak to her subordinates in a commanding tone, and has a very strong desire for control. She feels very uncomfortable if she feels out of control.
Logically speaking, with her personality, the employee turnover rate should be very high, but in reality, it isn't. She's the one who fires most people; no one chooses to leave voluntarily.
After all, she has a kind heart and is very honest. She won't do anything drastic behind someone's back. She just says what she thinks. If you offend her, she will definitely talk to you, but she won't retaliate.
Once you change, she won't say anything to you next time. And you won't need to go through all those tedious social activities, like meals and drinks; it's completely unnecessary.
Besides, a high-paying job is hard to find. Moreover, you might still encounter difficult bosses if you work for other companies or in other places.
When leaders criticize their employees for not performing well, they will inevitably reprimand them. But do employees want to be lectured like that? Of course not.
It's fair to say that such conflicts might arise no matter where you go, so it's better to just stay in your current position. After all, Li Jiayi's temper is sometimes acceptable.
She smiled and said, "Teachers, we're heading to the recording studio soon. I hope you can all hang in there. It might be a bit tough, as we'll be recording for seven consecutive days."
Our staff is divided into 35 groups, with five groups responsible for the entire process each day, rotating shifts so that everyone is not too tired.
After all, if photographers are too tired, it is easy for them to take bad photos. And the teachers have a harder time because there are no replacements and no rotation.
But don't worry, the production team won't deliberately exploit the teachers. The games they've designed are quite simple and not tiring at all.
The appeal of variety shows has always been the chemistry between the guests, not the difficulty of the tasks. No matter how difficult the tasks are designed, if the guests don't perform well, it's all for naught.
Originally, Li Jiayi wanted to continue recording in two separate sessions, but Lin Xiangshen disagreed with her idea and insisted on recording it all at once.
After all, his fans have been making a huge fuss online, all wanting to see him and want him to do something. In order to leave more time for interacting with fans, it would be better to start and end this variety show as soon as possible.
