Chapter 400: The Beloved Villain's Daughter (7)
Anyway, the production team didn't require them to do any of their tasks, and the production team was so unscrupulous that they kept the wages very low. So the parents discussed it and decided to find some easy things to do and take their kids with them to prepare for street performances. After all, they are artists, and they have their own specialties. They can sing, dance, and act, so they can definitely earn a living.
The director initially didn't want to agree, but then faced threats from the parents and ultimately gave in.
"You can perform for money, but there are conditions."
Actress Lin: "What are the conditions?"
Director: "You can't let anyone discover your identities as artists. Otherwise, if someone finds out, you'll be fined ten dollars, and so on."
Parents: "..."
Looking at the director: Are you the devil?
However, they were eventually forced to accept this, and then discussed how to make a living by performing.
This definitely won't work in this village.
So he spent money to take a bus to the small town, and then began to disguise himself. The production team switched to smaller cameras to avoid being noticed by the audience, which garnered positive feedback from viewers. After all, this was to create a more authentic show effect.
After that, everyone split into groups and began their own money-making journey.
Ruan Zhu asked Gu Qian, "I heard you can play the piano? Then let's go find a place with a piano."
However, there was only one piano shop in the town, so Ruan Zhu went to talk to the owner. In order to avoid being recognized by the owner, Ruan Zhu disguised himself by making his hair a little longer and putting on a rough-looking makeup. After all, he looked like a delicate idol, so the contrast was huge and he was sure to fool everyone.
This was clearly a success.
The shop owner didn't recognize them. "You said you wanted to borrow a piano because you're looking for work? Can you play it?"
Ruan Zhu: "I only know a little bit, but Xiao Gu Qian knows a lot. He's really good at it. Why don't you try it out first, boss?"
The boss looked at Gu Qian, but Gu Qian was not intimidated.
"Okay, you give it a try. I'll see how you do. But the pay here isn't very high. If you pass, it'll be two hundred yuan a day."
Ruan Zhu: "Okay, let's give it a try."
Gu Qian led Wen Wan to a chair and sat her down. Then he began to play the piano. It must be said that the boss was very satisfied with the first note and immediately agreed to let Gu Qian stay and play the piano.
Ruan Zhu then asked, "Do you still need cleaners? Or do you need a singer? I can sing pretty well, how about adding me?"
"Singing? We don't hire singers here."
Wen Wan pulled the shop owner aside and said, "But my brother sings so well, he can attract a lot of customers."
"Then sing it for us first."
So Ruan Zhu sang a song to the accompaniment of Gu Qian's piano playing, and was eventually accepted.
Wen Wan was extremely satisfied. She held a small cake in her hand. Ruan Zhu and Gu Qian were in charge of making money, while she was in charge of being cute.
As soon as a customer was attracted inside, Wen Wan would run over and sweetly greet them, "Beautiful sister, welcome!"
And you know what? It worked pretty well. After all, who can resist a cute kid who calls you "pretty sister"? Nobody, nobody can resist such a naturally adorable creature.
As a result, the number of customers in the store increased significantly that day. Although not everyone can afford a piano, they all came to take a look or listen to one.
On that day, two pianos were actually sold.
This was already a big deal for the boss, so when it came time to settle wages, he was exceptionally generous, giving out 500 yuan. 400 yuan was for Ruan Zhu and Gu Qian's wages, and 100 yuan was for Wen Wan's hard work.
I earned five hundred in one day, which is much more than what I would earn from being exploited by the director. I'm sure I'll be able to eat and drink well for the next few days without having to worry about food.
The other groups also gained something.
Although there were occasional unexpected incidents, overall we still made a profit.
The director was initially worried that the show wouldn't be very popular, but when he checked the backend data, he found that the show was incredibly popular, reaching a new peak. In particular, the segment where Gu Qian played the piano, Ruan Zhu sang, and Ruan Ruan acted cute was the peak of the live stream's popularity.
Moreover, it also trended on several high-ranking searches, and the show's popularity soared rapidly.
The director was very satisfied, so he changed the program's plan.
This is, after all, a children's variety show. Perhaps viewers prefer to watch heartwarming family moments rather than scenes of exhausting work.
That evening, everyone had a big meal after returning home, which completely relieved all their fatigue.
For the next few days, it was the same: adults took their children to the town to perform, experience various aspects of life, and earn money along the way.
There was no abuse of the guests, and no children crying or arguing, but the show's data kept rising, and even the ratings were very high. Last season was the peak, and the director was already under a lot of pressure. If he just copied the previous season, what would be the point of making the show? But to innovate would be extremely risky, and he didn't have much information.
This time it worked really well, the effect was truly remarkable.
So when the first episode ended, the director was very happy and even gave everyone some perks, treating them to a lobster feast, which made the parents and children very happy.
...
When they got home, Gu's parents held Wen Wan in their arms and were very satisfied with how much weight she had gained.
"Very good, Qianqian did a great job this time, taking good care of his younger sister."
Gu Qian: "I told you I would take care of Ruan Ruan, so please stop treating me like a child."
Mother Gu: "Alright, from now on I'll treat you like a big kid, okay?"
The production team created an official account for each child.
The mother took photos of her two children and uploaded them, attracting many followers. However, no one paid attention to the rest of the family. Once the task was completed, they never went online to check again.
Afterwards, Wen Wan went to kindergarten, and Gu Qian also started school. He was too smart and kept skipping grades. If it weren't for the fact that Gu Qian's parents wanted him to have a complete childhood, he would have even skipped the entire elementary school.
Wen Wan exclaimed: As expected of the male lead, this is the standard aura of an overpowered male lead!
A top student—no, this should be called a genius.
Wen Wan was a formidable leader in the kindergarten, managing to keep all the other children in line. She even became a little star in the kindergarten after appearing on television.
"Ruanruan, you're on TV? Tiantian wants to be on TV too."
"Ruan Ruan, have you turned into a princess now?"
Wen Wan smiled and said, "Yes, Ruan Ruan is very well-behaved. She hasn't cried for so many days, which is why Ruan Ruan became a princess and went on TV so that everyone could see her."
Then she continued, "You too, as long as you behave, you'll be on TV too."
As a result, this class, which originally had the youngest children, was always difficult to manage.
As a result of Wen Wan's words, each child became more obedient than the last.
The kindergarten teachers had no choice but to give Wen Wan a little red flower and praise her to her parents repeatedly.
