7: Su Zhihe
Qin Qingâs work was done step-by-step. He stayed in the training room every day, watched the four boys train, and either contacted the various instructors or did other trivial tasks.
Because the training room is upstairs and is separated from other departments of the company, Qin Qing has little contact with other colleagues.
Heâs part of the companyâs administrative unit, so he can contact the personnel and management of the same department, which is the department of the glasses man.
The one who has recently had the most contact with Qin Qing was a small HR girl.
She came upstairs whenever she wasnât busy with work, brought snacks, and chatted.
Qin Qing heard a lot of company gossip from her.
For example, the big boss of the company is not actually Manager Yuan, but someone else. Because of something at home, Manager Yuan is in charge of the company and he has not come to the company much in the past six months.
However, Manager Yuanâs business ability is average. He has only produced one Internet celebrity so far, and there is no news about the TV series they participated in.
The Internet celebrity also seemed to have a somewhat ambiguous relationship with Manager Yuan. He threw all the resources that the company had on them, but the results were lackluster. To date, the Internet celebrity is still an Internet celebrity.
There has also been a large personnel turnover in the company for more than a month, and many people have resigned to find other places. As for the four trainees, the little hr girl sighed: âThe big boss is actually very concerned. He wants to debut a male group, but Manager Yuan is not taking it seriously. â
Standing at the door of the training room while eating snacks, she kindly advised Qin Qing: âI think you have to be prepared too. If youâve got some work experience, you can find an opportunity to change jobs. â
Qin Qing said: His probation period is not over.
However, Qin Qingâs mentality has always been very good. It is common for small companies in the circle to disappear the next year. He has no diploma and no work experience. It is impossible to find a stable large company as soon as he gets out.
If this company is really gone, then heâll look for something else again.
There are not a lot of other things in B city, but there are a lot of job opportunities. He has hands and feet, and a stable mentality. He can always find a suitable job.
So itâs time to go to work and eat.
However, the companyâs recent restless atmosphere has floated from downstairs to upstairs.
On this day, one of the four boys directly asked Qin Qing: âAssistant Qin, the company is not very good? â
What Qin Qing heard was all gossip, and he couldnât determine if it was true or not: âI donât know either. â
He didnât know and the boys were a little anxious.
Among the four of them, the longest one at the company had been there for a year.
In the beginning, it sounded good to be a trainee and wait to debut. When you debut, you can have a job, and when you work, you can have an income.
But what if the company fails, what should they do?
There was a low mood in the training room. The four boys stopped training and sat on the ground, hugging their legs with their arms.
Qin Qing looked at them and said nothing.
Guan Yiyun shook his legs, not caring: âIâve seen whatâs going on. This broken company will end sooner or later. If itâs really over, you can come with me. I have a place to put you. â
After speaking, he looked at Qin Qing: âAnd you too. â
Qin Qing lightly chuckled but said nothing.
After getting off work that day, Qin Qing sent the four boys back to the apartment.
When walking on the road, Guan Yiyun carried a bag with one hand, threw it on his shoulder, and caught up with Qin Qing: âHey, Iâm serious. If this broken company is not working anymore, Come with me. I really have a place. Iâm not lying to you or braggingâ
Qin Qing glanced sideways at him: âI can find a job by myself. â
Guan Yiyun: âYou donât believe me? â
Qin Qing seriously replied: âI believe you. â
Guan Yiyun straightened up and said quickly: âIf you believe me, then just follow me. â
Qin Qing felt that he needed to speak more bluntly: âMaster Guan, we have only known each other for half a month.â
Guan Yiyun was stunned: âW-what? What did you call me? â
I called you Master Guan.
He is indeed a young master.
This was what Qin Qing discovered when he came here a week ago.
Although Guan Yiyun likes to apply for pocket money and spends extravagantly, he never takes it for nothing, and always pays it back in a few days.
Obviously, there is financial support at home.
There are also the clothes.
He said that they were counterfeit goods from stalls and were bought from the night market, but Qin Qing recognized them all at a glance. They were all real.
A T-shirt can cost tens of thousands, and a pair of socks must be hundreds of yuan. There are also shoes, which look like ordinary Adidas and Nike but are all limited editions, and he has several pairs which equates to tens of thousands of yuan.
Not to mention luxury brand jewelry like necklaces and rings.
Qin Qing had noticed this a while ago but he kept silent and didnât expose it.
Guan Yiyun quickly realized that Qin Qing was not joking or poking fun. He should have really noticed it.
Guan Yiyun was very curious, and chased after him to ask, âHow do you know? â
He was selected through a company interview. He didnât use a relationship and didnât find anyone to come forward for him. Neither the boss nor Manager Yuan knew of his background. So how could Qin Qing, a new assistant know?
Qin Qing: âI can see it. â
Guan Yiyun asked, âWhat else do you see? â
âI can see that you donât like to pay attention to the side when you walkâ
Qin Qing stretched out his hand and grabbed the young boy who almost ran a red light, âBe careful of the cars.â â
Guan Yiyun looked at Qin Qing and secretly thought that this assistant brother was quite interesting. He was very appealing to him.
So that night, Guan Yiyun mentioned the new assistant in his chat with his brother.
Guan Yiyun: I donât know how he can see it.
Guan Yiyun: Iâve been here for months, but no one else has found out, just him.
Guan Yiyun: He is observate and talented.
Guan Yiyun: This kind of person lives in the basement and eats boiled rice, which is simply a waste.
Su Zhihe: Letâs talk about something else.
Guan Yiyun recognized his brotherâs suggestion and sent over a secretly taken photo of Qin Qingâs side face stored in his phone album.
Guan Yiyun: How is it? Isnât it handsome?
Su Zhihe: Who?
Guan Yiyun: The new assistant
On the other end of the phone, Su Zhihe sat in the back of a car and looked at his cousin Guan Yiyunâs reply with a speechless expression.
As a trainee, canât he understand peopleâs words anymore?
You ask him to talk about something else and donât always mention the new assistant, and this was his âsomething elseâ?
In the co-driver seat, Agent Xiang Xun, heard a slight snort and turned his head to look back: âWhat happened to your brother again? â
Itâs an everyday conversation: Then the company still hasnât fallen yet?
Su Zhihe just flew back to B City today after participating in a brandâs activities for two days in other places. He was about to arrive at his home.
The place where he lives is in Shang Linglong, very close to Guan Yiyun.
Xiang Xun thought of what happened to Guan Yiyun and asked a few more questions. Su Zhihe was too lazy to talk about this rebellious cousin and only replied, âItâs nothing. â
Xiang Xun: âYouâre back. Do you want to pick him up? â
Su Zhihe put away his mobile phone and closed his eyes: âWhat pick up. Let him stay with his new assistant. â
As Su Zhiheâs agent, Xiang Xun has always been aware of the situation on Guan Yiyunâs side. Knowing that the kid disobediently ran out and signed with a little-known broken company. He knew that the assistants arranged by that broken company have always been despised by the kid.
Xiang Xun sincerely advised: âDonât let him go too much. He is so old, he should be more serious. In the future, if he really wants to be an artist, an assistant and agent are important. He canât just kick them away if he doesnât like it.â
Being adaptable is the most important thing.
But this time Xiang Xun misunderstood. Young Master Guan didnât dislike the new assistant. On the contrary, he liked it very much that he not only had to mention it while chatting but took full-body photos.
Su Zhihe sneered in his heart: Too Idle.
The car got off the highway and drove straight down to Shang Linglong.
When they were about to enter the community, there were several cars in front, and one of them was a visitor. They were slow to register and blocked the security gate for a few minutes.
The driveway was blocked but the pedestrian lane was not. A boy carrying a bag of fruit walked under the fence in the area and towards the iron gate door.
Su Zhihe was sitting in the car and looked sideways. Through the tinted glass, he saw the man.
With just one glance, Su Zhihe recognized him. And after glancing a few more times, Guan Yiyunâs recent small talk began to echo in his ears.
ââGot a new assistant.
ââItâs a pity.
ââToo poor. living in a basement room. Canât even afford to eat, so can only eat rice soaked in cold water.
At the same time, the new assistant who heâd just seen in the photo swiped the resident card and entered the community.
Su Zhi He withdrew his gaze and secretly wondered if Shang Ling Long was no good to have been categorized as a basement, or if a certain stupid brother had been taken as a fool.
When the car drove into the community, Su Zhihe saw the assistant enter a certain building from a distance.
âIf I remember correctly, thatâs the most high-end building in the community.â Su Zhihe suddenly said.
Xiang Xun subconsciously looked at the building: âOh, you mean building 8. Ah yes, the Lou Wang. My connections couldnât even help you grab it back then.â
Su Zhihe whispered, âA fool. â
Xiang Xun: âHuh? â
Su Zhihe picked up the phone again: âI didnât say you. â
In the apartmentâ¦â¦
Guan Yiyun received a new message from his brother.
Su Zhihe: Whatâs the name of the new assistant?
Why do you suddenly ask for a name?
Guan Yiyun: Qin Qing.
Su Zhihe: Where does he live?
How would he know where he lives.
But Guan Yiyun could guess: Tongshen New Village, maybe. What happened?
Su Zhihe stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of his residence and glanced in the direction of Building 8 to confirm whether this stupid brother really didnât know.
Now it seems that not knowing is true, but stupidity is also true.
Not only stupid but also naive.
Guan Yiyun chatted about the assistant again: Brother, have you seen the photo? Isnâtvery handsome?
Su Zhihe pulled back the previous chat history and glanced at the photos. It was true.
Guan Yiyun: He is also very young, only eighteen.
Su Zhihe looked at building 8, then at the chat history on the phone. He pressed and held the voice button to record a voice note.
Su Zhihe: âItâs an assistant, why be so detailed? It is not as though he wants to do anything with me.â
The voice note was sent but there was no reply for a while.
Ten minutes later, Guan Yiyun who seemed to have returned to his senses, and also sent a voice note: âBrother! Are you sick? I just want to introduce him to you as an assistant!â
Another one: âYou old man! You canât even spare an eighteen-year-old!? â
Su Zhihe originally wanted to remind this stupid brother not to believe just about anything, but Guan Yiyun sent him two voices, so Su Zhihe simply pressed the black screen and didnât talk nonsense with him.
Forget it if you want to die outside.
Who would have thought that Guan Yiyun seemed to have discovered an interesting new topic and was addicted to talking about his new assistant.
Guan Yiyun: Qin Qing brought us breakfast: omelet, and look, he added ham and eggs.
Guan Yiyun: We are out to play ball.
Attached is a photo of Qin Qing taking a shot.
Guan Yiyun: Assistant Qin invited us to drink Coke.
Guan Yiyun: I want to send a pair of shoes, but Xiao Qin didnât want them. Sad. I guess He saw that the shoes were a bit expensive and refused to accept them.
Guan Yiyun: This broken company seems to be really broken. Many people downstairs have left. Xiao Qin is quite calm. After taking this monthâs salary, he is going to invite us to a barbecue.
Guan Yiyun: Look! Barbecue!
Guan Yiyun: Look! Xiao Qin changed to a white T-shirt.
In the photo, the young man has a very white complexion and a handsome appearance. Wearing a short-sleeved round-neck white T-shirt, he looked quiet and gentle while holding barbecue tongs.
In fact, the picture is a little fuzzy; it looked like it was casually taken with a cell phone, and directly sent after shooting.
Sent it for you to see if itâs okay. Who doesnât have a stupid brother who talks a lot of bullshit? The problem is that Su Zhihe is gay.
Su Zhihe: is there any more?
Guan Yiyun took time to reply while eating meat:?
Su Zhihe: Photo.
Guan Yiyun didnât even think about it. He picked up his mobile phone, pointed the camera at Qin Qing, and clicked away.
As a result, Qin Qing noticed during the shooting and raised his gaze.
So in the pile of photos sent to Su Zhihe, Qin Qingâs face was clearly shown in several of them.
And the eyes that looked through the screen were clear and clean, like a clear spring of water.
Su Zhihe raised his mobile phone looked at those pictures for a few minutes.
After looking at it, he put down his phone and breathed silently.
Eighteen?
Thatâs fine.
Qin Qing doesnât know about any of this.
Guan Yiyun likes to take pictures. He used his mobile phone to take pictures with him while eating barbecue. Qin Qing thought he was just taking pictures of his daily life and wanted to go back to post them to his circle of friends at night, so he didnât care.
What he has been more concerned about recently, is how long C-Entertainment can last.
According to his own ideas, itâs better to stay for a full year. After one year of work experience, it will be much more convenient to find a job after leaving the company.
But it seems that a year is a little difficult.
First, the company has lost a lot of people one after another, and half of the company is almost empty.
The second is that the internet celebrity is said to have completed their contract.
Qin Qing doesnât understand how there is a brokerage company that only signs artists for one year these days, but looking at Manager Yuanâs posture of taking the internet celebrity to start another platform. Iâm afraid this company is really going to be over.
The end is near, so Qin Qing took the time to update his resume.
Unlike other employees of the company, who are already looking for another job, and have been complaining.
Not only did Qin Qing not complain, but he also seriously asked Guan Yiyun if he could really take the other three away and set them up. He was seriously considering a way out for the four of them after the company collapsed.
Guan Yiyun has this ability, but still asked, âIf I canât do it, will you still make arrangements for us?â
Qin Qing: âI can give you some suggestions. â
The so-called suggestion is the backup plan: Starting from now, find all the ways to contact other companies. You can sign directly. Donât worry about the breach of contract. For a company that is not going to last, they have no time to care about other things like the trainees.
If you canât sign for a company, go to interviews for all the activities you can find, and make your debut as soon as possible, and get connected to proper acting jobs.
If that doesnât work, then settle for the next best thing and find other jobs. Behind the scenes, photography, and even singing in bars are fine.
You must not wait. If you wait, you will waste yourself to death. You must seize opportunities as soon as possible. Grasp more than one. Only then can it be possible to accumulate something and catch a good deal one day.
Guan Yiyun admired Qin Qing even more now. He felt that this assistant was practical and realistic and he didnât patronize or ignore them.
After relaying those suggestions to his brother, Su Zhihe was surprised and asked, âHe said all that? â
Guan Yiyun: âYes, Xiao Qin is awesome.â He said again, âHe is young, but he really knows a lot. Observant, strong, and thoughtful, he doesnât look like a newcomer at all.â
Guan Yiyun: âMaybe he was born suitable for this kind of job.â
Guan Yiyun: âBut itâs a pity. I asked him to follow me, but he didnât want to. Such a good assistant is about to go soon. â
Go away?
How can that work
After Guan Yiyun had fooled around in the company for half a year, Su Zhihe finally seriously asked: âWhat is the name of your company?â
Guan Yiyun: âC-Entertainment, didnât you know? Why?â
Su Zhihe said in a leisurely tone: âTell your assistant, thereâs no need to go. â
Guan Yiyun blurted out: âYou donât want to buy this broken company, do you? â After shouting, he was moved, âFor me?â â
Su Zhihe: âDonât be silly. â
Guan Yiyun: âThen for whom are you doing it?â.
Su Zhihe was generous and didnât hide it: âYou see, your brother is in his early thirties. He has been busy with work for so many years, and his personal problems have not been solved. He is still single. â
âYouâ¦â Guan Yiyun reacted and was shocked: âBrother, you arenât! â
Su Zhiheâs tone was firm and as arrogant as it has always been: âEighteen is a bit small, but Iâll try my best to overcome it. Itâs not impossible. â
Guan Yiyun: â? ï¼ ï¼ ï¼ ï¼ ï¼ ï¼ ï¼ ï¼ ï¼ â
