Chapter 150 Fight
When there is competition for resources between people, the relationship is usually not very good.
And the chocolate and Qingqing at this moment undoubtedly prove this statement.
Although this was the first time the two had met in real life, they had already been competing with each other for a long time.
Chocolate, needless to say, finally met a mentor and filmed the "hip-shaking dance," which went viral. It was thought to be the most phenomenal video of the year, but less than two months later, Qingqing's "hand gesture dance" emerged out of nowhere, and it was overshadowed by the other in terms of both performance and popularity.
Resources are limited, so when a social media influencer of similar size appears in the company, the resources allocated to you will definitely decrease.
In this situation, Chocolate really had no interest in playing the "you're nice to me, I'm nice to you" family game with Qingqing; the competitive spirit was practically written all over her face.
As for Qingqing, she was in no way inferior to her opponent in terms of momentum.
In her opinion, although Chocolate's "hip-shaking dance" is very popular, since it has been completely surpassed by her own "hand gesture dance," she should just obediently play second place.
Neither side was willing to back down, and for a moment, a faint smell of gunpowder filled the air around them.
Chen Yan naturally noticed the change in the environment, but he had no intention of trying to mitigate it.
In Chen Yan's view, as long as the competition doesn't escalate to the point of "qualifying," a suitable competitive atmosphere is actually beneficial...
On the other hand, Chen Yan's personality is inherently somewhat amusing. After confirming that the current level of competition between the two wouldn't cause him any loss of interest, he even had an idea...
"Let's fight! Let's fight!"
However, both women were clearly still rational at this moment. After greeting each other, they didn't say anything more.
At the same time, the two of them had the same idea—the advantage is in my hands!
'She's not exactly a stunning beauty,' Chocolate thought, increasingly convinced of her own advantage. After all, she was prettier than the other woman and possessed a unique, irreplaceable style. Although she was currently ahead of the competition, but…
It's not important how fast you go, it's important how far you go!
As for Qingqing, after seeing Chocolate's face, she did feel a little pressure because of his outstanding appearance. After all, he was very distinctive, and the fans of such internet celebrities with unique styles are often more loyal than those of other internet celebrities.
But she quickly overcame the pressure.
"So what if she's pretty? With beauty apps and makeup, the difference in appearance in videos will only be minimized or even eliminated. And that's proven in reality; her hip-shaking dance is no match for my hand gesture dance."
Qingqing felt that since she was the newcomer, she could still outshine Chocolate, so the gap would only widen in the future. She didn't need to feel pressured because of the other person's appearance.
Not only that, Qingqing felt she had one last trump card – she had a sexual relationship with Chen Yan.
This matter may seem insignificant, but at certain times it can have the effect of "the last straw that breaks the camel's back".
So, after a series of unspoken battles, both women unanimously concluded that they had the upper hand and that the other would eventually be surpassed by them.
Seeing that the two had no intention of continuing their fight, Chen Yan felt a little regretful.
"If we don't want to fight, then we don't have to. Let's finish filming the footage first." Chen Yan took a sip of water and said, "Qingqing, the problem has been pointed out. Now, film it again... Do you need some time to get into the swing of things?"
"No need, let's just go straight to the location and not waste everyone's time." Qingqing stood up and walked towards the filming location.
Seeing the other party's decisiveness, Chen Yan greeted the photographer, indicating that they could begin filming.
Qingqing placed her hands on her abdomen, swayed her waist slightly as she walked, and her high heels made a "clack-clack-clack" sound as they stepped on the ground.
Her alluring figure, mature and elegant gait, coupled with the crisp sound of her high heels... it was as if the high heels were stepping on the hearts of the audience.
Standing behind Chen Yan, Chocolate, after watching the whole thing, also showed an expression of "this kid is definitely a formidable opponent," and his original confidence of "the advantage is mine" diminished considerably.
However, Chen Yan frowned slightly. Although Qingqing's visual effects were quite good, Chen Yan still wanted to make the video shooting as perfect as possible.
Instead of correcting the shortcomings that Qingqing had previously pointed out, she also made mistakes in other areas.
……
Qingqing felt she had performed quite well and was about to ask Chen Yan for credit when she turned around and found Chen Yan frowning slightly. Her slightly smug mood suddenly turned into unease.
"Boss..." she walked over with small, hesitant steps, and asked anxiously, "Was that one time okay?"
As she spoke, her voice grew weaker and weaker, clearly having gotten the answer from Chen Yan's face.
"That won't work. Sit down, and let's watch the video we just filmed together." Chen Yan waved his hand, gesturing for Qingqing to sit next to him, and then pressed play.
“You haven’t fixed the shortcomings here… and here too… the waist twist you did just now was too exaggerated. You need to show a slightly alluring, hazy feeling, not that blatant seduction.”
Qingqing listened attentively, but as she listened, she found herself pressed against Chen Yan.
Chocolate, standing behind, naturally noticed this scene. At this moment, she stared at Chocolate with wide eyes and a slightly angry expression on her face.
Originally, she was quite happy to see Qingqing making so many mistakes pointed out by Chen Yan. After all, when there is competition between the two sides, the other party's mistakes mean that she is one step closer to success.
Although I know it's unlikely, what if Qingqing makes too many mistakes and Chen Yan becomes dissatisfied and then stops training her?
However, the moment their shoulders touched, Chocolate was completely stunned; she couldn't believe it was an unconscious result.
When Chen Yan reviewed the video with her before, the two of them could at least keep a fist's distance. How come when it came to Qingqing, the two of them were pressed together?
This is seduction, blatant seduction!
Chocolate felt as if the top two students in the school, whose total scores were no more than five points apart, had agreed to compare their total scores, but the other student, while taking the test, took out his phone and started taking pictures of the questions.
Even in direct competition, there's no absolute chance of winning. Now the opponent is resorting to underhanded tactics. How can we possibly win?
Although she thought, "If she can do it, then I can do it too," Chocolate simply couldn't bring herself to do such a thing. To actively seduce a boyfriend for resources while already having one was a breach of her moral boundaries.
Therefore, she could only vent all her dissatisfaction and anger on Qingqing.
'Shameless! The boss gave her a serious analysis, but she tried to seduce him for resources. She has no self-respect whatsoever.'
"If you don't focus on improving yourself and only know how to take shortcuts and crooked paths, no matter how fast you go, it's useless; you'll never go far."
'Does she think this will make the boss value her more? The boss will only think she's cheap. She doesn't even value herself, yet she expects others to.'
Chocolate cursed inwardly for a while, but as she cursed, she began to worry about herself.
After all, if the other person could use this move but she couldn't, it meant she was going to be a step behind... She was already somewhat inferior to the other person, and if she kept being a step behind, wouldn't the gap only widen? 'Besides, Chen Yan didn't push her away, which meant Chen Yan was susceptible to this tactic.' Chocolate bit her lip, suddenly feeling that she was getting further and further away from a bright future.
Now, both Qingqing and she have a clear idea in their minds: with Chen Yan's economic foundation and talent, he will definitely succeed in the future.
No, he has already succeeded, and he will only become more successful in the future.
So as long as you can become his most capable henchman, or... the most economically valuable internet celebrity, then you'll only be able to take off with your boss in the future.
When the wind lifts a person into the air, the closer you are to that person, the higher you will be lifted.
I finally found a prime spot, but it was snatched up by someone else in just two days.

……
In the next few rounds, Qingqing performed quite well, and her few mistakes were quickly corrected.
After the fifth attempt, Chen Yan finally saw the visual effect he wanted and nodded, "Okay, that's good."
Seeing Chen Yan finally nod, Qingqing's tense heart finally relaxed, and she couldn't help but cheer.
"You were in great form just now, keep it up," Chen Yan encouraged, then said, "That concludes today's task. Go home and get some rest."
"Can I stay a little longer?" Qingqing didn't show the excitement a working person would feel when they hear they're about to leave work. Instead, she looked at Chen Yan expectantly and said, "I feel like I can't get into the zone. I want to see how Chocolate Senior works."
"Chocolate senior..." Upon hearing this word, Chen Yan's cheek twitched slightly. He really couldn't understand how chocolate could be associated with the word "senior."
If we count the start dates, Qingqing seems to have started before Chocolate... but Chocolate is too unique, and if the hip-shaking dance isn't filmed soon, the original owner will suddenly appear out of nowhere, so Chen Yan has no choice but to cultivate Chocolate first.
Chen Yan neither agreed nor disagreed with Qingqing's request, leaving the choice to Chocolate.
"I don't care, you can ask Chocolate. I respect her choice."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qingqing turned to look at Chocolate standing behind her, put her hands together, and pleaded, "Chocolate, please, I want to learn some experience from you."
Chocolate pursed her lips and forced a smile. "Of course, but I also have many shortcomings, so I may not be able to help you much."
Chocolate felt that she said those words through gritted teeth. Qingqing wasn't learning from her at all; she was clearly there to provoke her and watch the show.
Taking a deep breath and forcibly calming herself down, Chocolate quickly stepped forward, walked to Chen Yan's side, and asked, "Boss, what are we filming today?"
"Did you learn those dance videos I sent you a few days ago?" Chen Yan didn't rush to answer, but asked a question first.
"Yes, I watched it, and I learned it all." Chocolate nodded quickly, trying to show that she was serious.
For some reason, Chocolate felt like a workhorse in the workplace, working hard and sacrificing her health to get promoted and receive a raise.
Qingqing is like a boss's secretary who takes crooked paths. Although she is not incompetent, she is just a babysitter and cannot create greater economic value, so she can receive the same treatment as her.
But Chocolate wasn't one to complain or blame others. She decided to perform well in the upcoming filming so that Chen Yan could see her attitude and effort.
“Okay, then we have the basics.” Chen Yan stood up. “I’ll demonstrate it in slow motion first, and you can learn from me.”
Chen Yan's latest creation is also a catchy dance. Although it can't compare to the popularity of the "hip-shaking dance" and the "duro dance," if filmed properly, getting two or three million likes is definitely not a problem.
The dance Chen Yan provided still gave Chocolate a strange feeling, but having learned from her previous experiences with the "hip-shaking dance" and the "duro dance," she no longer had any doubts about Chen Yan and simply followed along.
Anyway, anything made by the boss is bound to be of high quality.
This dance isn't very difficult; I became quite proficient after practicing it less than ten times.
Chocolate was satisfied with the simplicity of the dance; however, she was very unhappy about Qingqing and the boss sitting together watching her dance.
He stayed right next to Chen Yan the whole time, sitting and watching her dance... This was the attitude of seeking experience from a senior, but it was clearly a show of defiance.
'She's not even pretty, what's the point of pretending?' Chocolate took a deep breath, thinking to herself that if she didn't have a boyfriend, she would do the same thing as Qingqing and pin her down.
……
The first take is over.
"OK, let's review this." Chen Yan took the camera from the female photographer and waved at Chocolate. "You did a great job. With a few minor adjustments to your movements, you could have finished perfectly."
Hearing Chen Yan's praise, Chocolate glanced at Qingqing with a hint of smugness.
I performed very well on my first try, unlike some people who only know how to take shortcuts and can still find so many mistakes in such a simple action.
While thinking about it, Chocolate sat down next to Chen Yan.
Of course, she didn't sit as close as Qingqing; she still kept an arm's length distance from Chen Yan.
And so, the three of them sat on the bench, watching the video they had just filmed.
Chen Yan initially placed the camera between himself and Chocolate. Just as he was about to review the situation, he saw Qingqing peering over expectantly, craning her neck without saying a word, looking like she was determined to learn even if there were difficulties.
Chen Yan certainly didn't think Qingqing was studying; he could only say that Qingqing was a bit of a green tea bitch at heart.
but……
'Qingqing, you're such a good wingman.' Seeing Qingqing's expression, Chen Yan quickly came up with a plan, and then a barely perceptible smile appeared on his face.
(Please give me some votes, I don't want to fall out of the top 300)
