Chapter 34 Chapter 34 Update
Wei Jiao parked the car and hurried over to meet Yan Su.
When she walked to Yan Su, she quickly glanced at the male guests and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Noticing that the production crew had already started filming, Wei Jiao lowered her voice and whispered in Yan Su's ear, "It's a dating show, as expected. These old men all have tall and straight figures and good looks. They manage their bodies better than many male celebrities in the domestic entertainment industry. They look very energetic."
Yan Su nodded, this was indeed true.
These old men are already at this age, and their looks are definitely the best among their peers. It can be inferred that they must have been handsome guys when they were young.
The key issue now is that these old men don’t seem to be very “content”.
"By the way," Wei Jiao turned her gaze away from the old men, "Susu, I'm planning to hire you an assistant."
Yan Su's originally nonchalant expression suddenly changed when she heard this, and her eyelids twitched several times.
Hiring an assistant? You can't just hire someone casually.
Being an assistant is not free. You have to pay a salary and buy five insurances, one fund, two funds and three funds for them. She herself doesn't have these things.
Yan Su said seriously, "Sister Wei, you always told me that the entertainment industry is a place of fame and fortune, easily blinding people's eyes and minds. You told me to be down-to-earth and not rush things. I think that makes a lot of sense and have always regarded those words as my motto in life. I'm just a supporting actor now, I don't need an assistant at all."
The main reason is that she still owes the bank a debt of 8.88 million, and is currently working part-time as a chef for the young master, so she has no money to hire an assistant.
Although there is a bank card that is supposedly made of pure gold with 1 billion yuan in deposits, she can't remember the password... She can't bear to think about it, as it makes her heart ache.
She couldn't afford an assistant anyway.
Wei Jiao's face was filled with relief, and she patted her head twice. "It's great that you remembered my words and took one step at a time. In this impetuous world, you really can't rush. You have to hold steady and persevere."
Yan Su thought she had convinced Wei Jiao, and a smile immediately appeared on her face.
Wei Jiao: "But..."
The smile on Yan Su's face immediately disappeared.
As soon as the word "but" came out, she knew something bad was going to happen.
"Things are different now," Wei Jiao said earnestly. "It's important to keep your feet on the ground, but the situation has changed. You also need to quickly adjust your mindset and adapt to the new situation."
Yan Su: “…”
What was different? What new situation? She didn't feel anything was different.
Wei Jiao: "You're no longer the obscure little extra you were five years ago. You've played a supporting female role in Director Chen's latest masterpiece, 'The Iron-Blooded Warrior: White Rose in Fire'. You were trending on social media two weeks ago, and your fan base increased by over a million. As a result, you've landed an endorsement deal, and you're currently participating in a variety show on Orange TV."
"Suah," Wei Jiao held her hand. "You are no longer the little confused person who played the corpse. You are destined to be a rising star of tomorrow."
Yan Su: “…”
A supporting actress in a silly TV series, a spokesperson for health products for the elderly, and a guest on a dating variety show for middle-aged and elderly people... Which tomorrow's superstar would have such an experience?
Wei Jiao made the final decision: "So, you must hire an assistant. You can't do without an assistant in your current position."
Status? What status? She was just a nobody, and she had to work part-time to make money.
Yan Su's heart bleeds when she thinks about having to pay for an assistant out of her own pocket.
Wei Jiao touched Dandan and Guaibao's heads and said, "With an assistant, I can help take care of the children."
When Yan Su heard this, the heartache she felt finally eased a little.
The next few minutes.
Wei Jiao discussed with Yan Su the topic of "what kind of assistant should I hire".
It was called a discussion, but in fact it was just Wei Jiao muttering unilaterally.
When Yan Su thought about having to spend money to hire an assistant, she sighed silently in her heart for the 180th time.
When Yan Su found that Wei Jiao's words were getting more and more outrageous and she even wanted to hire two assistants, her heart skipped a beat and she couldn't help it. Just as she was about to speak, she caught a glimpse of two cars driving towards them, and the one in front was a Rolls-Royce.
Two cars stopped in front of the crowd.
First, the door of the car behind opened and ten people got out, five of them holding white umbrellas and five of them carrying the same baskets.
They all walked to the side of the luxury car and stood in two rows.
The luxury car driver bent slightly and opened the door.
With a "swish" sound.
The five people holding umbrellas standing next to the luxury car opened their umbrellas at the same time.
The other five people reached into the basket, grabbed a handful of pink petals and scattered them into the sky.
Ten people shouted in unison: "Princess Wei Yan, please get off the car."
As soon as they finished shouting, an old lady wearing a pink skirt, pink high heels, a pink gauze hat on her head and delicate makeup got out of the car.
Seeing this scene, Yan Su's toes had their own ideas and began to dig frantically.
Wei Jiao said with envy, "This is even more impressive than a star like you. The production team is really good at it. The amateurs they invited look impressive."
Yan Su: “…”
How could this be so simple? Thinking about this, she looked at the five uncles.
The old man in the suit still raised his head slightly to look at the sky, posing with the look of a noble and cold old boss who didn't want to pay any attention to ordinary people.
The old man, dressed in white, still had a red face and sweat on his forehead. He looked very stiff and kept muttering to himself.
The old man carrying the sack was still standing next to the crew members, staring intently at the drink bottles in their hands.
The old man with a buzz cut was still on the phone, saying, "If she doesn't like a man like me who is family-oriented, dedicated and hardworking, then it must be her problem. She needs to reflect on it."
The old man in the flowered shirt followed his mother closely, asking, "Mom, can I sit down?"
The little princess's aunt made such a big noise, but the five old men didn't even glance at her.
“Ding ding ding.”
“Ding ding ding.”
Before Yan Su could finish picking her feet from the embarrassment caused by the little princess aunt, she heard the sound of a whistle again.
She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged woman in very simple clothes driving a tricycle, with a taxi following not far behind her.
The woman driving the tricycle got off and scanned the five elderly male guests with a searchlight-like gaze. Then she turned to the production staff member beside her and said, "We agreed beforehand that if you want to marry me, you have to buy a house in Yanjing for each of my two younger brothers, and find them jobs that are low-work, high-paying, and close to home."
Staff: “…”
Yan Su looked at the five uncles.
Well, the uncles still didn’t react. Those who were posing were posing, and those who were following their mothers were following their mothers.
As the tricycle-driving auntie finished her words, the door of the taxi behind her opened, and a woman in a white dress, who looked to be in her early 30s, came down pushing a suitcase.
Her eyes were red and swollen, and after walking a few steps, she grabbed a passing staff member and said, "Can I really marry a husband who lives a hundred years by participating in this program? I don't want money or a house, I just hope he can live a hundred years."
Staff: “…”
Yan Su continued to look at the five uncles.
Well, the old men still do what they are supposed to do, without even raising a hair.
Another minute passed and the last old lady came over.
She was driving a small electric scooter, her hair was a little messy, and she was wearing the work clothes of a restaurant waitress. It was obvious that she came in a hurry.
She was in an unusually good spirit, her eyes full of joy, and she said softly, "I'm sorry, I was too busy at work and came late."
Of the four amateur female guests invited by the program team, only the last one looked very normal. Fortunately, not all of them were wiped out, as there was still one normal guest.
Yan Su looked at the old men out of habit.
The four uncles remained indifferent and remained true to their original intentions, only one uncle's expression changed.
He is a cold and noble old boss with a slicked-back hair, wearing a suit, leather shoes and a tie, and always posing and looking at the sky.
When the last middle-aged lady appeared, the old boss's gaze turned towards her in an instant.
Yan Su didn't know how to describe the look in the old boss's eyes; it was truly too complicated.
One part coldness, two parts anger, three parts depression, and four parts helplessness... the old boss's eyes can't contain such a variety of emotions.
"Okay, everyone come here!"
A young man shouted with a small loudspeaker.
Yan Su and the others walked over, and other elderly guests also gathered together.
The variety show director said: "Hello everyone, I am Niu Chen, the director of Orange TV's new middle-aged and elderly love variety show "Heartbeat Only for You". Welcome everyone to join our big family. I hope we can get along well in the future."
As soon as he finished speaking, applause broke out in the audience.
A staff member came forward and stuffed an envelope into each guest's hand.
When this person walked up to Yan Su, he quickly looked up at her, then took the envelope at the bottom and stuffed it into her hand.
Yan Su naturally noticed the man's actions but she didn't care, mainly because she didn't want to waste her brain thinking about the other person's abnormal behavior.
Director Niu Chen continued, "The envelopes in your hands contain your room's key cards. Go back to your rooms and pack your luggage. We'll film a small get-together discussion in half an hour."
Yan Su opened the envelope and saw the door card inside with 601 written on it.
She immediately took her two children, packed her suitcase and left with Wei Jiao.
When Yan Su found her room, she discovered that the other guests lived on the third to fifth floors, and she was the only one living on the sixth floor.
She thought of the employee's small movements when distributing the envelopes just now, and knew that there was something fishy.
It doesn't matter.
Yan Su carried the two cubs around the room, and the three of them were very satisfied.
This is a small suite of 60 square meters, with a master bedroom, a study, and a large enough living room.
The luggage was almost packed. Wei Jiao said, "Hurry up and join the filming of the program. I'll take care of Dandan and Guaibao."
Yan Su touched the two babies' heads, gave each of them a kiss, and went out with her small backpack on her back.
…
When Yan Su arrived at the shooting location, she saw many elderly men and women already sitting on chairs next to the long square table.
She hurried over and picked an empty seat to sit down.
Less than five minutes after Yan Su arrived, the others arrived one after another.
Variety show director Niu Chen first said some polite words as an opening remark, and then asked everyone to briefly introduce themselves so that they could get to know each other.
"Let me go first."
A soft and weak voice sounded.
Yan Su looked over.
The person who spoke was the woman sitting on her left, who looked to be in her early 30s.
"Hello everyone, my name is Liu Yinyin, and I'm 45 years old."
As Liu Yinyin spoke, she looked directly at the five old men opposite her without any hesitation.
"The reason I participated in this program was because the production team told me that I could find my ideal partner here."
As Liu Yinyin spoke, she looked at the old men opposite her twice.
"My requirements for my future husband are very simple. As long as he is healthy and lives a long life, it doesn't matter whether he has money or not."
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Yinyin's tears suddenly fell, and she said in a very sad tone: "My life is so miserable."
Yan Su shuddered in fear at her voice.
Liu Yinyin tearfully said, "I've been married four times before, and all four husbands died of illness. My first husband left me two houses in Beijing and two houses in Shanghai. My second husband left me 20 million in cash. My third husband left me two houses in Beijing and 300 million in cash. My fourth husband left me a financial management fund that gets 30 million in dividends from the bank every year. They're all gone, so what's the point of all these cold houses and money? I've had a miserable life."
Yan Su: “…”
Good boy, she got a critical hit right from the start. Can this dating show still be recorded properly?
