Chapter 78 Feeding
"Sister Shuyi, why are you here for an interview?"
"You are Sister Yun now, so there will be no problem with the interview."
"That's right."
There were nearly thirty people present. At first glance, Cheng Shuyi saw that they were all beautiful but unfamiliar faces. She had not yet graduated from college and had only been in the circle for a short time, so she didn't know many people. However, that didn't stop others who recognized her from coming over and getting close to her.
While it's unclear whether Yunyi has signed anyone else, this particular person is essentially a Yunyi employee. Flattering them a bit more often is always a good idea; it might just lead to a meteoric rise. Therefore, within minutes of Cheng Shuyi sitting down, people were constantly accosting her, praising her with unrealistic accolades.
Trying hard to maintain a smile, Cheng Shuyi was trying to please everyone at first and said a few perfunctory words. But in the end, there were so many people talking that she didn't know any of them. She didn't even want to say polite words and just hoped to get rid of these people.
Just as he was frowning impatiently, Zhou Yu'an, who had just gone to the bathroom, pushed the door open and came back. Seeing Cheng Shuyi hugged in a ball with a fake smile, he raised his eyebrows and then sat down in the empty seat next to him.
"I'm sorry, I hope everyone can do well. Thank you, thank you, please make way." Cheng Shuyi finally found an excuse to stand up and change seats to sit next to Zhou Yu'an, talking in a low voice. The three people in a row looked like friends who already knew each other, so even if the others wanted to come forward, they had to stop reluctantly for the time being.
"Why do they come to talk to you for no reason?" Zhou Yu'an asked while lowering her head to talk to Cheng Shuyi to help her out.
"Ah?" Cheng Shuyi blinked. This question was strange. She didn't mean to brag, but she already had traffic and had signed a contract with Yunyi. It was normal for people who wanted to interview her to get close to her. However, it was difficult for her to explain this.
"Shuyi is very popular now, so it's normal for her to come and talk to him. If no one came, I would doubt Yunyi's current competitiveness." A girl sitting on the other side of Zhou Yuan said with a smile. Seeing Cheng Shuyi looking over, she greeted him, "Hello."
Unlike the fawning and flattering people just now, it was a gentle greeting, like meeting a friend.
"He Shu, the female lead in my last play, is also here for the interview today. This is my college classmate, Cheng Shuyi." Zhou Yu'an introduced the two of them, one on the left and one on the right.
"Hmm? Is it Cheng Shuyi? When she debuted, she changed her name to Shuyi, without the surname?"
Cheng Shuyi smiled and said, "A two-character name is better."
Zhou Yu'an looked around and asked hesitantly, "Do you know each other? Have you worked together before?"
Cheng Shuyi is his classmate, so they are naturally familiar with each other. Why does He Shu also seem to know her?
"No, didn't you see Cheng's promotional video? It's starring Shuyi." Seeing Zhou Yu'an's expression, He Shu knew he hadn't seen it. He said in surprise, "You didn't even watch it? That was directed by Director Jiang! Great, now you don't even support Director Jiang."
"Wait a minute, you know each other," Cheng Shuyi was about to call me sister, but then changed her address, "You know Director Jiang?"
"Our last drama, The Little Mermaid, was directed by Director Jiang."
The three of them looked at each other and burst out laughing. They all said that the entertainment industry is a circle. This was too much of a coincidence. The leading actors of Jiang Yiyu's previous and subsequent works gathered together in this interview break room today.
"I didn't know you were filming Director Jiang's drama before." She had asked Sister Jiang a few questions when she was filming the web drama. She had originally wanted to visit the set, but then she met Du Yisang and didn't have the time to go. She never knew that the male lead was actually her classmate Zhou Yu'an. She remembered that Sister Jiang had said before that she would introduce her to some potential artists, and she should be referring to Zhou Yu'an and He Shu.
"We're currently filming a short film for our club. I haven't had time to see the promotional video yet, and I didn't know you were in it." Zhou Yu'an shook his head. "What a coincidence."
After getting to know each other again, and feeling the familiarity of being Jiang Yiyun's subordinate, He Shu curiously asked, "You've already filmed a promotional video for Cheng Corporation, do you still need to come for an interview? Do you have to go through the motions?"
"You have to come. I even got my resume." Cheng Shuyi shook the paper in his hand.
"I don't know what the interviewer will ask about later." He Shu said with some worry, "It must be very demanding. I lost a lot of weight the week before this interview and ate salad every day. I must go out for a good meal after the interview."
"Trust me, both of you will be fine." Cheng Shuyi vowed.
"I'll go first. I'll tell you what the test is after the interview." While they were chatting, many people had already arrived. Everyone who returned to the lounge after the interview had a serious expression on their face. For a moment, it was hard to tell the depth of their expressions. Zhou Yu'an took a sip of water to moisten his throat. "It's just the things you need to learn to be an artist, and then ask about your personal life and background."
"Yunyi will have several big-budget dramas coming up, and some of this group of newly signed artists will definitely be squeezed in. Maybe they will be given scripts to try out for a role." Cheng Shuyi narrowed his eyes.
He Shu looked at her in surprise, and said thoughtfully: "That makes sense. It's like an audition. No wonder you want to come too."
Cheng Shuyi smiled and said, "I wish good luck to all three of us."
"Sister, how come it's such a coincidence that Zhou Yu'an is the male lead in your last play?" Before the morning shows were over, Cheng Shuyi, who had slipped away early, rushed to Yujiangyuan to get a free meal. Although her brother disliked her, for the sake of Jiang Yiyu's face, he had to let Cheng Shuyi rush in like crazy and chatter around Jiang Yiyu like a little bird.
Cheng Shuze brought all the dishes, leaving only a few bowls. Jiang Yiyu was about to take them when Cheng Shuyi snatched them away. She didn't look at all leisurely like she had just seen her brother, the CEO, sitting on the side and watching while he was in the kitchen.
"Sister, let me do it, let me do it." Cheng Shuyi said eagerly.
"He's your college classmate?" Jiang Yiyun was also a little surprised. "I hadn't heard of him before. I even recommended him for an interview at Yunyi."
I am a junior at the Academy of Performing Arts, and I am in the same class as Shuyi. I didn’t expect that we were actually classmates.
"Thank goodness you asked him to come, sister. I was planning to sign him." Cheng Shuyi danced and talked excitedly about how Yunyi Film and Television would produce several popular young actors and actresses in the next five years. Jiang Yiyu listened to her with a smile.
Mr. Cheng, who was ignored the whole time, peeled shrimps for Jiang Yiyu with a cold face. Jiang Yiyu couldn't eat so many, so she picked up the fresh Argentine red shrimps with shells peeled and heads and tails removed from the bowl and fed them to Cheng Shuyi. Cheng Shuyi didn't mind and came over to eat happily with a shameless face. Cheng Shuze gave her a sharp look.
"Cheng Shuyi, don't you have hands? Why do you need someone to feed you?"
Cheng Shuyi rolled his eyes while holding a shrimp in his mouth and muttered, "You're jealous because you can't eat the shrimp that Sister Jiang peeled for you."
"...Are you blind? I peeled the ones you're eating. Just eat them if I tell you to." Cheng Shuze said disdainfully, "If you want to eat them, peel them yourself."
"No, you're asking me to choose for myself, you're definitely trying to poison me."
Cheng Shuze: “…”
He should have put the medicine in a separate dish when he was cooking.
"Stop arguing and drink the soup." Jiang Yiyu served each of them a bowl of beef spine soup to put an end to the quarrel between the two people.
Cheng Shuze took the bowl and then ruthlessly ordered him to leave: "After you finish your meal, get out."
After dinner, Cheng Shuyi originally wanted to stay a while longer, but the upcoming interview in the afternoon forced her to rush back to Yunyi immediately. After hurriedly touching up her makeup, she didn't even have time to eat the cream-soaked strawberries she had just eaten after dinner.
But this time, as soon as Cheng Shuyi entered the company, she saw the woman she hated the most, Du Yisang.
"You came for an interview too?" Du Yisang looked Cheng Shuyi up and down with disdain. Perhaps because he had been scolded by his agent, he didn't yell this time. However, his eyes were filled with resentment and malice when he looked at Cheng Shuyi. He leaned close to Cheng Shuyi and said with gritted teeth, "Don't think you can be proud now just because you hooked up with Mr. Cheng. Wait until you get into the company and see what happens."
She was just suffering from not being able to see Mr. Cheng. After joining Yunyi, the probability of meeting Mr. Cheng would be higher. Then she would not let this bitch do whatever he wanted.
She had almost finished her talk with Yunyi before, and she came here today just to go through the process and sign the contract. It goes without saying who will be more valued in the company after she becomes more famous. Once this bitch no longer has Mr. Cheng's special treatment, kicking her out will be as simple as snapping a finger.
Based on Cheng Shuyi's previous instructions, no one dared to leak the information. Du Yisang was now completely unaware that the situation inside Yunyi had changed. The person she offended was actually the daughter of the Cheng family, whom she could not afford to offend.
"Let's wait and see. You have to wait until you get into the company before you can wait and see. Otherwise, where can I go to see you?" Cheng Shuyi retorted without hesitation. Holding her bag, she pushed away Du Yisang who was blocking the road and left leisurely.
"What a joke! You think I can't get into Yunyi? Don't think that just because Mr. Cheng is kind enough to give you some sweet treats, you think you're really worthless. Stop dreaming! How can you call the shots at Yunyi? Stop right there!"
Hearing the scolding behind Du Yisang, Cheng Shuyi curled the corners of his lips.
Ah... Yunyi seems to be able to call the shots now.
After turning the corner, Cheng Shuyi took out the orange work ID from her bag and hung it around her neck. Then she pushed open the door of the interview room. There was a row of five stools inside. The four interviewers had already arrived and were preparing for the interview that would begin in the afternoon. The chair in the middle, representing the main interviewer, had been empty since this morning.
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, several people in the room looked up and greeted Cheng Shuyi when they saw him.
"Mr. Cheng, will you come for the interview this afternoon?"
Their current boss went on an incognito visit this morning, and even came around pretending to be an ordinary interviewee. He should be sitting here this afternoon, screening people according to the normal process.
"Um."
Cheng Shuyi pulled out a chair and sat down in the middle. "We really need to screen the people in the afternoon session. Let's get started."
