316 Determined To Give It A Try First!
Benson felt extremely bitter as he watched Hui Xin run away.
The reason why he wanted Kou Zhiyuan to suggest the “internet celebrity route” was to give trainees like Hui Xin more job opportunities.
This was because the trainee system of Morris Corporation was very tough. The company only provided three meals for more than 10 hours of training a day. The trainees had to pay for their own accommodation.
They could not do other work because of the heavy Practice Quests, which resulted in no income.
There were too many trainees like Hui Xin who came from poor families.
They signed with Morris with the dream of becoming a big star and squeezed into cheap and narrow rental houses. They relied on their families to give them money to live. They were tight on food and clothes.
Benson had seen girls faint from hunger in the practice room more than once. When those girls woke up, they always said that it was to lose weight.
As a bystander, he could not bear to see such harsh living conditions.
Not long ago, Hui Xin came to look for him with a box of snacks.
Benson had some impression of Hui Xin because Hui Xin was the most hardworking girl in the training room on the second floor. Moreover, her family conditions were not good. He heard that she only slept for four hours a day. She attended classes during the day and went to the restaurant to work at night.
Hui Xin came to look for Benson because he hoped that Benson could introduce her to some work. The small income from working at mealtimes could no longer support Hui Xin’s family’s expenses.
She felt that she had the ability to earn some extra money after practicing for five years.
Benson watched as Hui Xin confidently displayed her dance. She was like a little sparrow in the forest, energetic and Infestive. He had mixed feelings.
The company had an unspoken mutual understanding that the trainees on the second floor had almost no chance of debuting. Unless they were outstanding and could be promoted to the sixth floor’s training room, they could only endure it.
Hui Xin worked for five years but still stayed on the second floor, which meant that she lacked something. Whether it was luck or strength depended on what Kou Zhiyuan said.
Even if there was a job for the trainees, it would be for the trainees on the sixth floor and not the second floor.
Benson hesitated for a moment but did not say anything in the end. He only said that he would help ask.
After that, Hui Xin went back and thought that she could not debut because of her appearance. That was why she used all her money for the double eyelids surgery.
Benson had originally hoped that the company could use the Internet celebrity industry and let trainees like Huixin earn some extra money. Unexpectedly, he was rejected so readily.
He did not know if he should tell Hui Xin that spending time in Morris was just wasting her youth. She might as well change companies.
Thinking of this, Benson thought of Yang Tianzhen and the new company he had recently joined.
Kou Zhiyuan seemed to have targeted them and signed many trainees back to make things difficult for them.
For some reason, Benson had another thought. “They should have an easier time if they go to Manager Yang’s company.”
Benson slapped himself when he realized that his mind was starting to spin.
If he really did such a thing, with Kou Zhiyuan’s petty nature, he would definitely ban him!
“No, no!”
Benson warned himself not to let one’s imagination run wild as he took out his phone. His sliding finger stopped at Yang Tianzhen’s phone number.
They had a good relationship previously. If it was just to find a part-time job for Hui Xin, Yang Tianzhen would probably agree…
Benson swallowed, feeling conflicted.
He thought of Hui Xin’s expectant smile, as if it overlapped with his young self.
In the past, when he stepped into the entertainment industry, he was like her, filled with anticipation for the future. He fantasized about making famous celebrities, winning all kinds of big awards, and sending money home to let his old parents live a better life.
Looking at the corridor where Hui Xin left, Benson felt like he was seeing Hui Xin’s father lying on the hospital bed and his younger sister who was studying hard.
“I’m really obsessed. It’s not my family’s business. Why do you care about this!” Benson put his phone into his pocket as if he had made up his mind.
After taking two steps, he stopped and took out his phone again. However, he was not looking for Yang Tianzhen. Instead, he dialed Hui Xin’s number.
“I have something to tell you. Wait for me at the cafe across the street.” Benson added, “I’ll pay for the coffee.”
After hanging up the phone, he looked at the black screen in a daze, revealing a conflicted face.
If he wanted to live well, he had to throw away his conscience.
This was the experience Benson had obtained after entering this industry. Take Kou Zhiyuan for example. He did not care about the lives of the trainees and even wanted to extort a sum of money from them before they broke the contract. He was doing very well, so much so that he squeezed the founder of the company away.
Benson also wanted to throw away his conscience so that he would not be troubled by these unrelated matters.
“Damn it, let’s settle her part-time job first. After that I’ll eat my conscience!” Benson made up his mind and hurriedly went downstairs and ran out of the office building.
…
Farmer’s small garden.
Tang Jin was scrolling through the comments under the video.
“Big Sister Xiaochun’s cooking looks so delicious. I want to join in too with my own chopsticks.”
“Anyone who could marry a girl like Xiao Chun must have saved the Milky Way in their previous lives.”
“Little Sister Jin seems to be eating so well. I really want to feed her!”
“Hehehe, only children make choices. Even an adult like me wants it.”
“It’s worth it even if I die to eat the delicacies in the video!”
The netizens were quite obsessed with their videos. The videos were liked by more than 200,000 people every time, and there were unanimous good reviews below. There was even a fan group called “Food Match”.
Tang Jin looked at the good reviews and felt that it was unreal.
She was really famous!
Just as she was in a daze, the familiar private car stopped at the door.
Luo Feng carried a box into the small courtyard.
“Boss is here.” The makeup artist hurriedly went up to him and took the box. She realized that there was a small snack inside.
The makeup artist looked at Luo Feng gratefully.
The boss was too good! Not only did he give them a high salary and a free creative environment, but he also brought snacks to visit them from time to time. They were too happy as employees!
“The boss is here. The boss brought benefits again!” The makeup artist shouted loudly, and everyone ran out of the room.
“Long live the boss!”
“Boss is too good!”
“I love you to death, Boss!”
The staff of the Agricultural Garden had also evolved to be the same as the employees of Good Me. They rushed forward and divided the goods in a few seconds.
Tang Jin snatched more and specially ran to Luo Feng’s side and smiled. “Boss, look at how much I snatched! I’ll give you half.”
“I specially brought them for you. Don’t worry about me,” Luo Feng said.
Tang Jin did not stand on the ceremony. She opened a bag and stuffed it into her mouth. Her cheeks were bulging as she said with surprise in her eyes, “It’s so delicious!”
“Delicious? That’s recognized by our gourmet.” Luo Feng nodded seriously. “Then we have to give this preserved meat a few scenes in the video filmed today.”
“What do you mean?” Tang Jin did not understand.
This was her first time participating in a video shoot, so it was normal for her not to understand. However, the others had experience and immediately understood—the boss had received an advertisement!
