Chapter 112: Mischief
After Han Mo left, Yu Xiaoting and Zhuang Jingjing stood on both sides of Nan Yao.
The three of them huddled together, talking softly.
“Nan Yao, Xiaoting and I will be on your side. We will do whatever you say as long as we can be the intern hosts for ‘Dreams Come True’.” Zhuang Jingjing looked at Nan Yao with a simpering expression.
Yu Xiaoting quickly follow suit. “Nan Yao, we will be colleagues in the future, please take care of us newcomers.”
It was always right to butter up the young lady of the biggest shareholder in the broadcasting station.
The corners of Nan Yao’s lips could not help but lift up. She liked this feeling of having people looking up to her. From the corner of her eye, Nan Yao looked at Nan Zhi who was sitting at the corner writing up proposals and a look of disdain appeared on Nan Yao’s face.
It was not enough to rely on ability if one wanted to work in the broadcasting station. It was all about connections. Nan Zhi was bound to suffer from her arrogance and unwillingness to bow down to her.
“Well, let’s write the proposal first, and when the director comes later, we must perform well.”
Nan Yao had already spoken with the director of ‘Dreams Come True.’ He would choose her out of respect towards Nan Weiye.
As for Nan Zhi, Nan Yao would never allow her to get into the program ‘Dreams Come True.’
Nan Zhi took only fifteen minutes to write up the proposal. She put it away and went to the washroom.
When Nan Yao saw Nan Zhi leave, she tapped on the table and said quietly to Yu Xiaoting and Zhuang Jingjing, “If the two of you want to get in ‘Dreams Come True’, you have to make sure Nan Zhi does not get in.”
Zhuang Jingjing and Yu Xiaoting looked at each other and understood what Nan Yao meant. They followed Nan Zhi into the washroom after Nan Zhi went in.
Yu Xiaoting was not as bold as Zhuang Jingjing. “Jingjing, is it really okay for us to do this?”
Zhuang Jingjing glared at Yu Xiaoting. “It wasn’t easy for us to get this chance, if we don’t use some tricks, it may be either one of us who will be going to ‘Delicacy Wins The World’. The ratings for it are so bad it may even get cancelled, which program would still want us if we hosted such a lousy program?”
Yu Xiaoting felt that what Zhuang Jingjing said was right.
“Besides, we are just locking the door of the washroom, it’s nothing unlawful, what are you afraid of?”
Yu Xiaoting nodded, allowing herself to be persuaded.
The two of them locked the door to the washroom before Nan Zhi came out and put an ‘Under Maintenance’ sign in front of the door.
Nan Zhi came out of the cubicle, washed her hands and realized the door outside was locked. She pulled and twisted the door handle, but could not open it.
She realized immediately that something was amiss and her lips quirked into a cold scoff.
As she was not allowed to carry her cell phone during work, she could not contact anyone. She leaned against the doorframe. She was not angry, but instead, felt a sense of calmness.
…
In the conference room.
Liu Chengren, the director of ‘Dreams Come True’, and Zhang Yijun, the director of ‘Delicacy Wins The World’ , entered in tandem.
Liu Chengren was the broadcasting station’s most popular director. No matter where he went, he was accompanied by several assistants.
Zhang Yijun was his direct opposite. The ratings of the last season’s ‘Delicacy Wins The World’ were crushed to smithereens by ‘Dreams Come True’. The discrepancy was clear and more recently, the program would be recording a new season. There were already whispers around the grapevine that the station would stop this program if its ratings did not improve.
When Nan Yao, Yu Xiaoting and Zhuang Jingjing saw Director Liu Chengren, they greeted him warmly and expressed their admiration for him.
Their attitudes were evidently much colder when they saw Zhang Yijun coming in after Liu Chengren.
Zhang Yijun naturally felt the difference in respect levelled towards him. His status in the broadcasting was so low that even the newcomers looked down upon him.
