Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 358 - 357: Below One Man, Above Ten Thousand Men
Chapter 358: Chapter 357: Below One Man, Above Ten Thousand Men
"Mr. Su, are you really not going to reconsider? I am very, very sincere,"
"Besides, it would be such a pity if your talent doesn’t get showcased."
"Mr. Su..."
Seeing Su Mu’s cold refusal, Wang Yiming still wanted to salvage the situation.
It wasn’t that ’Happy Sunday’ was truly short of people.
Honestly, Wang Yiming wasn’t worried about lacking stars to participate in ’Happy Sunday’ at all.
For Wang Yiming, it was just that Su Mu’s appeal was too stunning.
Wang Yiming felt that ’Happy Sunday’ really needed someone like Mr. Su, who was handsome and sang beautifully, to bolster the show’s talent and idol presence.
"Su Mu, I’ve brought over the person in charge of the talent show,"
Wang Yiming hadn’t finished speaking when a crisp female voice interrupted him.
Wang Yiming was somewhat displeased; his status within Xinghuan Entertainment was not low.
Who was this newcomer with such audacity?
Didn’t she see he was still talking with Mr. Su?
To interrupt him so directly?
Wang Yiming’s face fell as he turned around.
Wang Yiming wanted to show this newcomer that the great Wang Dao was in a very bad mood.
Not only had Mr. Su not accepted his invitation, but Wang Yiming couldn’t even make his last plea.
Wang Yiming felt a surge of anger and wanted to redirect it.
After all, Wang Yiming was used to throwing his weight around newcomers at Xinghuan Entertainment.
Wang Yiming knew he could curse at these newcomers without any problem.
Let alone just venting his discontent a little.
Mainly because Mr. Su was present, Wang Yiming didn’t want to appear unclassy.
Otherwise, Wang Yiming guessed he would have started cursing before he even turned his head.
It was thanks to Su Mu that Wang Yiming didn’t make that huge mistake.
When Wang Yiming saw the newcomer he was about to scold, his mouth hung open as if he’d forgotten to close it.
Wang Yiming had intended to maintain his image in front of Su Mu and had not planned to curse.
But Wang Yiming felt it was necessary to give a small lesson nonetheless.
Otherwise, these newcomers wouldn’t know who he was.
Only, Wang Yiming sadly realized he really couldn’t scold this "newcomer."
Not to mention, this girl who spoke was indeed the newest newcomer at Xinghuan Entertainment.
Because Xinghuan Entertainment hadn’t signed any new artists recently, nor had they trained any, especially not in the past few days.
So wasn’t He Qiya, who showed up at Xinghuan Entertainment yesterday, the newest of the newcomers?
He Qiya’s time at Xinghuan Entertainment hadn’t been long.
In fact, it was extremely short since she had only been there for an hour or two yesterday afternoon.
But Wang Yiming really didn’t have the guts to scold such a new newcomer.
Aside from anything else, the fact that He Qiya was the only daughter of He Yuguang, the chairman of Xinghuan Entertainment, was enough to keep Wang Yiming’s mouth firmly shut.
The big boss’s daughter, it wasn’t just about interrupting a sentence of his.
Even if she told him to shut up directly, Wang Yiming knew he couldn’t say a word in protest.
This had nothing to do with experience.
With He Qiya, it was purely a matter of hierarchy.
Even if He Qiya held no position at Xinghuan Entertainment.
But at her whim, the Miss could pick and choose any position beneath the chairman.
That’s really just one step below the top and above tens of thousands.
Not to mention, He Qiya is also the sole heir to He Yuguang.
The significance is indeed too heavy.
So heavy that Wang Yiming’s complexion changed and changed again, yet he couldn’t squeeze out a word.
"Look quick, I told you there’ll be a good show once Wang Dao encounters Miss He, didn’t I?"
"Did you see how furious Wang Dao was just now? Now he’s turned into a little lamb. Isn’t his face-changing act a bit too rapid?"
"What do you know, is Miss He someone Wang Dao can afford to offend? She’s the gold master."
"Miss He still doesn’t know about Wang Dao pestering that handsome guy to join the Happy Sunday show; if she finds out, who knows how she’ll teach Wang Dao a lesson."
"I notice you have quite an issue with Wang Dao, huh? Is it because he didn’t give you the time of day when you tried to butter him up last time?"
"What are you talking about? When have I ever tried to butter anyone up? Sounds like you’re talking about yourself."
"Those who wish to know must first not do it themselves. Do you think your little acts are unknown to others?"
"What nonsense are you spouting? I think you’re just jealous that the company signed me first."
"All right, all right, the young missy is about to come over. If you keep bickering like this, do you want to be kicked out of Xinghuan Entertainment?"
Because of these two people breaking character, the crowd that came to see the drama nearly turned into the "main characters" themselves.
Some couldn’t stand it and whispered a reminder.
Typically, such incidents are very common in the entertainment industry, and people usually don’t take what they hear at face value.
Let alone stepping in to say something.
If someone made a fuss over small rivalries and jealousies, it would be nothing more than a joke to others.
Nobody would actually step forward to say anything, let alone "kindly" stop the verbal altercation.
The problem was that these two had picked the wrong time to do battle.
If the arguing continued, it could be overheard by the young missy or that Wang Dao.
Then, everyone would be driven away from the site.
That would mean forfeiting any chance to get an extra look at the handsome guy.
Considering the gravity of the issue, someone reminded the two girls, whose faces had turned beet red.
All birds of a feather, none of them wanting to climb up by their own effort, just looking for shortcuts.
In everyone else’s eyes, both girls weren’t seen as anything good.
Of course, the circle they were in was just that peculiar.
Those who harbored such intentions were a dime a dozen.
But as long as no one knew or, to put it another way, as long as it wasn’t made public, everyone believed they were the ones with integrity.
Why was this self-deceiving idea so prevalent?
The two girls who were on the verge of entering battle mode were promptly deflated after being reminded by someone nearby.
The young missy had almost reached the handsome guy, which meant she wasn’t far from where they were.
If the two started quarreling now, they were sure to be heard by the young missy.
Not to say that would affect the young missy and the handsome guy.
If the young missy overheard their argument and felt that they brought a bad influence to Xinghuan Entertainment, she might fire them on the spot.
Wouldn’t that be even more of a loss?
Realizing this, the pair, of course, knew what was more important.
They glared at each other and, knowing the score, postponed their showdown.
However, the message in their eyes was clear: this isn’t over, we’ll settle the score when we have time.
He Qiya, with an air of a strong woman in her thirties, walked over accompanied by a beautiful woman exuding a similar aura.
Because He Qiya’s eyes were only for Su Mu, she didn’t notice the noticeably larger audience gathered on the side.
As He Qiya walked towards Su Mu, she also noticed that besides Su Mu and Four Eyes, a new man had joined them.
Because the man had his back to He Qiya, she couldn’t initially determine his identity.
Not until He Qiya spoke up and the man turned around did she finally ascertain who the man was.
Wang Yiming, a very famous director of entertainment shows at Xinghuan Entertainment.
As for what specific entertainment show it was.
He Qiya didn’t care, plus there was limited time yesterday, so she didn’t know the details very well.
Anyway, He Qiya had seen this Director Wang when she followed her mother to Xinghuan Entertainment yesterday.
He Qiya knew that this Director Wang must also hold a certain status at Xinghuan Entertainment.
Otherwise, just being a director and not part of the management.
In theory, He Qiya should not have met Wang Yiming yesterday.
With so many directors at Xinghuan Entertainment, if He Qiya had to meet each one of them.
Yesterday, she and her mother would probably have been busy all afternoon.
But no matter how high Wang Yiming’s status was among directors.
In front of He Qiya, Wang Yiming was just an employee of Xinghuan Entertainment after all.
It’s just that his position was a bit special.
He Qiya saw Wang Yiming, but she didn’t need to greet him at all.
She briskly walked up to Su Mu in three steps instead of two.
If it weren’t for the high heels she was wearing, He Qiya would’ve wanted to run to Su Mu’s side.
"Su Mu, I’ve asked around, and there indeed was an audition program for the most graceful girls yesterday."
"The girls participating in this audition program are generally between fifteen and twenty years old, and they should match the traits that Four Eyes described."
The slight delay He Qiya experienced was because she first wanted to understand the situation broadly.
If there hadn’t been an audition program for girls yesterday.
Or if there had been one, but it didn’t quite align with the identity Four Eyes was looking for in the girl in the background.
Then He Qiya felt there was no need to bring the person in charge over.
Because that would just waste Su Mu’s time.
He Qiya wanted to spend more time with Su Mu, but not all of it on helping Four Eyes find someone.
Helping Four Eyes look for someone certainly required his participation.
There is wisdom in the counsel of many.
But since this wasn’t a matter of studying, He Qiya felt that just she and Su Mu together was perfect.
Having an additional Four Eyes was somewhat superfluous.
Not to mention, there weren’t just an extra Four Eyes at Xinghuan Entertainment.
There were many employees at Xinghuan Entertainment.
Although it’s not likely for them to stay with Su Mu and He Qiya like Four Eyes did.
But basically, everyone’s gaze was revolving around Su Mu and He Qiya.
He Qiya always felt a bit uneasy.
He Qiya still remembered how yesterday she had invited Su Mu for a meal, and Su Mu said they could discuss it another time.
He Qiya thought today was a perfect opportunity.
As long as she helped Four Eyes find his girl in the background quickly,
Or the information about the girl.
Then wouldn’t Su Mu have the rest of his time freed up?
Isn’t He Qiya’s idea of inviting Su Mu to lunch as a way to thank him going to be realized?
"Are there really audition programs for girls?"
Upon hearing that his girl in the background might be found, Four Eyes clearly became very excited.
Four Eyes felt that Su Mu really was his lucky star.
Just look at how Su Mu came to Xinghuan Entertainment to scout for talent, and sure enough, there seemed to be some promising leads.
At this moment, Four Eyes seemed to have already envisioned the scene of him holding hands with the girl in the background.
The joy written all over Four Eyes’ face said it all.
"The Most Graceful Girl talent show?"
"I was a judge on that talent show yesterday, Miss He can come to me directly if she has any questions."
Although Wang Yiming was interrupted,
because of He Qiya’s status, Wang Yiming had no complaints in his heart.
After all, once Miss He was done with her business, he could just persuade the handsome guy again.
Wang Yiming felt that such a great opportunity for fame and profit should not be refused by the handsome guy.
After all, which young person nowadays doesn’t want to become famous, and who doesn’t want to be wealthy?
Although from Mr. Su’s attire, Wang Yiming knew this Mr. Su wouldn’t care about such a small amount of money.
But apart from money, there was fame.
Isn’t becoming famous something that is quite prestigious for a young person?
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many young boys and girls waiting to sign contracts to become stars.
Anyway, Wang Yiming thought there still might be a chance for this to work out.
Wang Yiming didn’t want to give up on an opportunity that was very beneficial to both himself and Happy Sunday.
So at this time, Wang Yiming was seeking to make his presence felt.
Wang Yiming didn’t want to become invisible just because the young lady had appeared.
Fortunately, the heavens hadn’t completely abandoned Wang Yiming.
Finally, Wang Yiming found a great chance to make his presence felt.
The Most Graceful Girl talent show?
Wang Yiming said he had wasted a whole afternoon yesterday, and it wasn’t completely useless.
At least at this time, Wang Yiming could start speaking in front of Miss He and Mr. Su, right?
"Do you know Su Mu?"
He Qiya furrowed her brows, it’s impossible for her not to have noticed Wang Yiming, given his large presence.
It’s just that He Qiya deliberately ignored the existence of everyone else except Su Mu.
Now that Wang Yiming had approached on his own, it would be difficult for He Qiya to ignore him even if she wanted to.
However, He Qiya was not interested in Wang Yiming’s claim that he was a judge of The Most Graceful Girl talent show.
He Qiya had already brought over the person in charge of The Most Graceful Girl talent show.
If she wanted to find someone, it would definitely be more useful to find the person in charge than a judge.
He Qiya noticed that Wang Yiming had been circling around Su Mu for a while now.
Seeing that Wang Yiming had no intention of leaving, He Qiya asked such a question.
Unless Wang Yiming knew Su Mu, He Qiya couldn’t understand why Wang Yiming refused to leave.
"I know Mr. Su, but Mr. Su doesn’t know me."
Wang Yiming felt he had been watching Mr. Su’s videos for a while now.
As far as Wang Yiming was concerned, recognizing Mr. Su in person at first glance was as good as knowing Mr. Su, wasn’t it?
Therefore, Wang Yiming thought it wasn’t too much to say so.
But in the presence of the person concerned, Wang Yiming was too embarrassed to go too far.
Wang Yiming was very clear that Su Mu did not know him.
Even after Wang Yiming introduced himself, he didn’t see any response from Mr. Su.
