Huayu: Starting from an Unemployed Male Model

"There's something else I want to tell you." Yang Chaoyue glanced up and secretly observed Wei Jun's expression.

"Speak up, if it's just nonsense, save your breath." As Yang Chaoyue spent more and more time by Wei Jun's side, he discovered another characteristic of this little girl: she was a chatterbox, talking a lot of nonsense, and chattering away all day long.

Seeing that Wei Jun had no expression and was just scrolling through his phone, Yang Chaoyue boldly said, "I've landed a business deal for our studio."

Wei Jun paused, his hand still on his phone. He turned to look at Yang Chaoyue, scrutinizing her from head to toe, his tone full of doubt: "Are you sure? Are you sure you're really talking to a business partner, and not being scammed?"

Wei Jun had to be careful. Even celebrities can be taken advantage of by certain companies or brands. They would use tactics such as assessing a celebrity's character, professional skills, and commercial value to get you to wear their products or even shoot promotional videos for them, and then eliminate you for failing the assessment.

This kind of freebie-getting tactic is commonplace in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Being taken advantage of by a brand is relatively mild; the worst thing is being scammed by a fraudster, and the scams can be more numerous and severe.

Scammers will create the persona of a senior manager or partner to trick you into investing in or joining their company. Once you've invested, they'll find various reasons to "lose" your money, thus encouraging you to invest more. When the amount grows large enough, they may even abscond with the funds.

It's because celebrities make money quickly, but they are limited by their education and their awareness of the challenges of their future careers, so they are eager to make money in order to avoid being eliminated from the industry in the future.

Yang Chaoyue immediately straightened up, raised her small head, and stared intently at Wei Jun: "Of course I'm sure. We met at the event just now. If you don't believe me, I'll show you his business card."

Yang Chaoyue took out a business card and an empty bottle of beverage from her backpack: "This is the manager's business card and his company's products."

Wei Jun took the business card, looked at the information on it, and then looked at the half-empty bottle of beverage, somewhat incredulous.

Minute Maid is a beverage brand owned by Coca-Cola.

"How did you pull that?" Wei Jun asked curiously. Did Yang Chaoyue have that ability?

"I didn't pull it. They were having an event next door, and I just went over to buy a drink," Yang Chaoyue scratched her head. "After drinking it, I just said it was delicious."

Wei Jun, looking utterly bewildered, asked, "And then?"

"Then a middle-aged man with a protruding belly came over to chat with me. He said he was the brand manager of Minute Maid and said that the way I looked while drinking the beverage was very youthful and cute, which matched the tone of their new fruit foam series. He asked me to take a picture."

"At first I thought the guy below me was lying and trying to hit on me, a young and beautiful girl, and I was about to leave when he pulled out his work ID and called over an employee to verify his identity."

Yang Chaoyue unscrewed the Minute Maid bottle and took a small sip, her cherry lips pouting, and continued chatting: "I believe him, but I refused his invitation to film a gay movie."

"Why?" Wei Jun was genuinely shocked this time. This little brat actually refused?

Filming a pornographic film would get you on TV, making you famous and rich. Only a fool would refuse such an offer, except for Yang Chaoyue, who is incredibly lucky.

"I know I'm not cut out for this. I'm afraid if I film it, there won't be any response, and the sales will be poor. Wouldn't that be letting people down?" Yang Chaoyue shook her head, her expression somewhat naive.

"So I recommended you to him, and listed the mobile phone and clothing brands you had previously endorsed, all of which sold out."

"He listened to your presentation and saw your event. He thinks you have a good image and professional skills, and he's interested in you. I estimate he'll call our studio after his event today."

Wei Jun's expression was complicated, but he couldn't help giving her a thumbs up.

Wei Jun wasn't very nice to Yang Chaoyue. Their relationship was usually just that of superior and subordinate. Although he never lost his temper with her, he also never treated her well or offered her any warmth. At most, he would just listen to her nagging.

Yang Chaoyue treated this boss quite well. She did her job meticulously and often cared about the boss's physical and mental health. This time, she turned down a job that could have brought her fame and fortune and instead recommended her boss to him.

Even if the collaboration doesn't ultimately succeed, Wei Jun will still appreciate her kindness.

Yang Chaoyue is such an exceptional employee; she truly deserves to be the boss's good assistant and Wei Jun's lucky charm.

"If the collaboration is successful in the end, I'll give you a project bonus." Wei Jun promised, "If your employees are all bringing you work, and you don't give them project bonuses, who will work hard for you in the future?"

"Thank you, boss. You're the most handsome boss in the world." Yang Chaoyue grinned, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth.

Wei Jun called his agent, Yang Hua, and told her the whole story.

Yang Hua listened to the phone in silence for a moment, then burst into laughter, praising his own good judgment and Yang Chaoyue's good character and outstanding work. He suggested that if the cooperation with Minute Maid was successful, he would give her a project bonus and a large red envelope at the end of the year.

Wei Jun agreed to everything. After ending the call, he saw Yang Chaoyue next to him drinking Minute Maid, scrolling through her phone, and laughing heartily. He shook his head and chuckled.

What a lucky koi!
