She became a heartthrob among internet celebrities.

Chapter 150 (Edited Version 2)

"It's time for us to watch the variety show with our viewers again! I'm quite excited." Dou Jinlin smiled and greeted the camera, then turned to Cui Ting, "Teacher Cui, based on the contestants' performances during the interviews in the previous episode, how do you think they did compared to when you were younger?"

"I can only say that the students have surpassed their teachers." Cui Ting laughed heartily. "Kids these days are much braver than I was back then. By the way, I heard that this season has footage of their first meeting?"

Bian Rong: Really? I think this would be really interesting!

Hoya turned to the side and replied, "Meetings are a good way to see the contestants' mental abilities. Being in a closed environment, in the same space as your superiors, and having to present yourself is actually a very stressful situation."

Xia Yang scratched his head: "Really? I never listen in meetings, but I'd be scared if my manager lectured me privately."

Lin Yinchuan: "I feel that the contestants should be able to perform well."

Xia Yang asked excitedly, "Then, brother, do you have anyone you particularly like?"

Lin Yinchuan shook his head: "I've only watched one episode, so I can't make any rash conclusions. Why don't you ask Teacher Cui, from a professional perspective, which contestant would stand out?"

"Are you all throwing the questions at me?" Cui Ting laughed. "I won't say anything. We'll find out as we continue."

The scene on the screen shifted from a clear blue sky to a well-decorated office building.

The screen displays: 10:00 AM

The five contestants, who were interning at the entertainment company, were already working non-stop.

"Xiao Yang, take a look at the promotional plan that Sister Wang has."

"Let's have another discussion about the proposal for which we had differing opinions last time."

"Have you arranged for someone to coordinate with them over there? Have you forgotten all the important points?"

Among the five contestants, some had their hands dancing across the keyboard, others were taking notes furiously while standing next to the leader, and still others were carrying various folders as they moved through the aisle.

Xia Yang leaned back, surprised, and asked, "Are they that busy?"

Lin Yinchuan glanced at him, seemingly puzzled, and asked, "Isn't your company this busy?"

Xia Yang's entertainment company is also doing well.

Xia Yang chuckled twice, "I'm usually out doing gigs and rarely stay at the company, so I don't know much about it."

Bian Rong sighed, "Entertainment companies are all this busy. Things will get better once we get through this."

Once you have a certain level of fame and status, you don't need to work so hard anymore.

Cui Ting disagreed, saying, "You have to pay the price to reap the rewards. That's true in any industry. I think the other five people won't be very free either. In finance and investment, it's hard to find time to eat. You're looking at projects, discussing them, and then rushing to the next meeting. It's basically non-stop work."

"That's terrifying!" Xia Yang's eyes widened. "It's almost as terrifying as us celebrities."

Not all celebrities are very busy. For example, some are not so popular anymore. Xia Yang, if you don't work harder...

—Lin Xiao, you...

—If it were 208 a day, I'd be willing to work non-stop. Once I've earned enough, I'll retire and enjoy life.

—You don't see that many celebrities going through contract lawsuits, do you? Don't be too optimistic.

—Ahhh, I'm not good enough, could I work as a cleaner at an entertainment company? I just saw my goddess on a TV show!

—Then I want to be an assistant!

Being an assistant isn't easy; what if you get disillusioned after getting close to your idol?

—The most ruthless thing is when fans turn against them and criticize them back.

The first half of the show mainly revolved around the five contestants from the entertainment company. Each of the five worked independently, taking charge of different tasks. Each person encountered different difficulties, leading to constant conflicts and even some who shed tears on set.

—Now I understand how tough it is to be in the entertainment industry. For ordinary people, it can be a shortcut to success, or it can be an insurmountable mountain in their entire lives.

—My heart aches for my little sister. Pat her head. Keep going after you've cried!

—Look at Huang, what he's doing has nothing to do with his major anymore, it's more like doing odd jobs. And the guy who wanted to be an assistant, is he still watching?

—I've given up. This is too annoying. I always end up taking the blame without even realizing it.

—That's how it is.

Cui Ting also didn't understand: "I don't really understand why the company puts these young people in these positions?"

“Maybe this is part of the workplace!” Bian Rong said with a touch of nostalgia. “Like me, I started as an extra and worked my way up step by step.”

"Then I can only look forward to what comes next, and hope that these children can grow up quickly and apply the knowledge they have learned."

Lin Yinchuan: "I'm curious about the other group's situation. Is it also a mess?"

As it turns out, no.

Because everyone at this investment bank was too busy, apart from the HR personnel initially taking the five of them to their workstations, the rest of the staff had almost no interaction with them.

After the five people sat down, they started to sit there bored and spaced out, occasionally chatting and laughing.

—Oh, is this really okay?

—The people here are very busy, they're already overwhelmed with their own problems, they simply don't have the time or energy to train newcomers.

—On the other hand, the busyness is so intense that they practically want to split the newcomers in two to make use of them.

—It's just that the nature of the work is different. If you let a newcomer do this kind of work, and they have no experience at all, it will be very troublesome if they make mistakes, and it may even lead to very serious consequences.

—Although, it's really peaceful and serene here; everyone seems to be getting along very well.

—I have a feeling something's going to happen.

Sure enough, the screen soon showed Qin Yijian appearing and giving a long talk to the five people.

So you absolutely must never let your boss see you slacking off.

—Ahhh, President Qin is so handsome!!!

Led by their assistant, Jiang Lai and her team quickly toured the entire office area, collected some office supplies and documents, and quietly began reading them at their desks.

Then, the assistant came out from the office area inside and said, "Jiang Lai, come in for a moment."

Bian Rong asked with great interest, "I can understand why she was the first person to be summoned by the big boss."

Huo Ya discussed with her: "Jiang Lai's greatest advantage is her face, but this will also be her obstacle."

Bian Rong agreed, saying, "I wonder what she went in for? Was she being reprimanded or given work instructions?"

Xia Yang: "It must be work, who would bear to scold her?"

—? ? ? ? Xia Yang, something's wrong with you.

—I'm speechless. You're recording a show, can't you at least use your brain before you speak?

—Jiang Lai is a fan of Lin Yinchuan, Yangyang, you have no chance, give up.

So why can't we go in and film it?

—A junior employee of the Qin Group explains: Our CEO Qin was purely forced to come to this program; it's perfectly normal that he didn't want to appear on screen.

When Jiang Lai came out of the office, she quickly grabbed her bag, said goodbye to the others, and said, "I'm going to a meeting, I'm leaving now!"

"Bye-bye!" "Take care on the road!"

The scene shifts to Jiang Lai, who is taking a taxi to the meeting location.

When she arrived at her destination, she still had plenty of time. After checking in, she found a seat and started chatting with the people around her.

"Which company do you work for, sister?"

"Sister, do you have a flowchart for today's meeting?"

"Sister, you know..."

The screen was filled with images of "older sister".

—That's hilarious! This girl has a sweet tongue. The guy next to her looks quite imposing, probably in his forties or fifties, and she calls him "sister." No wonder he told her everything.

—Her smile is so sweet!

—That's why it's so important to know how to get along with people in the workplace.

Bian Rong exclaimed, "She's a very smart girl."

“She knows how to use her strengths,” Hoya laughed, “and she knows where to draw the line.”

After the meeting, Jiang Lai not only added the woman next to her on WeChat, but also filled an entire page with notes, clearly understanding the policies outlined in the official documents.

After she took a taxi back, she immediately went into President Qin's office, gave a report, and then came out again.

"Jiang Lai, let's go to the cafeteria for lunch!" her friends called out to her.

"I'm coming!"

When the five of them arrived at the cafeteria, it was actually quite empty. Since they were interns and it was their first day, they were much earlier than the others. The cafeteria lady noticed that there was a camera following them and asked curiously, "Which celebrity is here?"

"No, we're filming a TV show!"

Upon hearing that it was a TV show being filmed, the cafeteria auntie stopped shaking and placed a full spoonful of meat on the plate.

—Hilarious! The cafeteria ladies are so relatable!

—The five of them had plenty of vegetables and meat; I'm so envious.

Where's my cafeteria lady? Come learn from her!

After finishing lunch, the group returned to their workstations and rested for a while. At 1 p.m., everyone was called to a meeting.

Qin Yijian, dressed in a black shirt, sat upright at the top, with a laptop in front of him and a projector on.

—This is where the feeling of a workplace reality show comes from.

—You mean this place looks more upscale, right?

Haha, pretty much.

"Let's get straight to the point. Today's topic is presenting the bid to our clients."

Xia Yang immediately looked at Cui Ting: "Teacher Cui, what is a 'statement standard'?"

"To answer in professional terms, a bid presentation refers to the process after submitting a bid, in which the bidder provides a brief explanation and description of the requirements for the subject matter in the bidding documents within the bid validity period, in accordance with the requirements of the bidding documents. The purpose is to more comprehensively and accurately demonstrate the bidder's technical and professional capabilities, and to better meet the needs of the bidding party."

"In simpler terms?" Dou Jinlin asked.

"When clients have needs, we communicate with them, offer assistance, and ultimately gain the opportunity to execute projects for them."

Qin Yijian in the video didn't speak, but watched her subordinates give a report. The five interns stared at each other intently.

The PPT provides a detailed introduction to a medical device company.

“This company recently applied for a new patent, which is very promising. Most people in the industry are optimistic about it,” Qin Yijian gave the order: “Your task is to complete a tender proposal with this as the target by 3 p.m. tomorrow.”

"Do you know how to write it?" Qin Yijian asked the five people.

"Huh?" Shao Yang hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are we going to do this right away?"

Qin Yijian stared at him: "Of course. Besides the five of you, everyone else attending the meeting here also needs to write it down."

Shaoyang seemed a little hesitant, but after a look from his friend, he said, "No problem."

Qin Yijian noticed Jiang Lai pulling on Shao Yang's clothes and frowned.

"Jiang Lai, tell me your thought process."

—Hilarious! It's like a hapless student getting called on in class.

—President Qin: You still have time for underhanded tactics? I think you've mastered them all.

—President Qin, you're scolding me!

—Which cage upstairs wasn't properly closed and let you escape?

Jiang Lai stood up: "I didn't know anything about this company before, so I think the first thing is to learn about the medical device industry, then collect information about this company, its development history, core patents, its advantages and highlights compared to its peers, whether they already have related business dealings with other companies, whether our company can gain an advantage, and finally, its subsequent..."

Qin Yijian leaned back in his chair, a smile playing on his lips, a hint of satisfaction in his expression. He looked at Jiang Lai and said, "Not bad, your ideas are mostly correct. I hope your assignment won't be too bad."

Jiang Lai smiled at him and said, "I will definitely work hard."

Cui Ting, watching from outside the screen, also showed a satisfied expression. "It's clear that Jiang Lai has a solid foundation and a clear way of thinking."

Lin Yinchuan: "She is the kind of person who will do everything seriously, but it seems that she is involved in too many aspects and likes too many things, so it is hard to say whether she will be loyal to a certain thing or person for a long time."

Hoya: "Really? I think this is normal for young people, because they're still in a period of confusion. That's just how it is at your twenties—exploring, trying, giving up, and persevering are all normal..."

-

This project proposal was really difficult to write. The office lights were still on past midnight.

Shao Yang peeked around, saying, "Those outside haven't left yet."

Jiang Lai looked at him with a pained expression and said, "I'm so sleepy."

"Me too."

"Why don't we go back?"

"Is it okay?" Jiang Lai slid her chair next to Shao Yang and whispered to him, "Caiwei and Zhihui plan to finish writing before they leave."

"I really can't take it anymore." Shao Yang looked like he was about to cry.

Jiang Lai patted him on the shoulder: "Good brother, me too!"

"Shall we go?" Shao Yang glanced at Du Heng: "Du Heng also said to leave after he's finished. With him by Caiwei's side, Caiwei and Zhihui should be fine. I'll go back to the dormitory with you."

Jiang Lai's eyes were swollen from sleep: "Okay, okay, it's settled then. Let's go!"

The two men told the other three that they had quietly taken their things and sneaked out.
