Shen Zha was full of joy.
As a director, in order to understand the preferences of young people nowadays, he really enjoyed surfing the internet.
Recently, the ongoing saga between Jiang Ning and the Huo Family had been the talk of the town, and not only had he come across it, but he had also discovered a very important piece of information.
Jiang Ning had actually started working at Huo’s!
The long-standing conflict between Jiang Ning and the Huo Family was so well-known that even internet users on a 2g connection had heard about it, not to mention those with 5g.
But Jiang Ning, so full of pride, had actually agreed to work at Huo’s for that sky-high daily salary.
It was obvious... Jiang Ning was really broke recently!
And now, as soon as he saw the news that Huo Company might be sealed, Shen Zha immediately made a phone call.
He thought, since Huo’s could offer Jiang Ning an astronomical daily salary, so could he!
The sheer volume of traffic and popularity that Jiang Ning brought had given Shen Zha a taste of sweetness.
Not to mention anything else, just taking "Survive for 30 Days" alone, which set a viewership record and had such a gap in data from the second-ranked reality show that it left other shows in the dust.
Even now, countless netizens were still searching for topics related to Jiang Ning and "Survive for 30 Days" every day.
The new reality show that Shen Zha and Chen Yan were currently filming also enjoyed a high popularity, but compared to "Survive for 30 Days," it seemed a bit lacking, which was why Shen Zha persevered in calling Jiang Ning multiple times.
As long as there was a glimmer of hope, he had to get Jiang Ning over.
"How about it? Will you come?"
Shen Zha eagerly awaited Jiang Ning’s response.
He thought Jiang Ning was tempted and then heard her cold refusal on the phone, "No."
"Why?" Shen Zha was anxious.
He had just heard a hint of interest in Jiang Ning’s reply.
Shen Zha was so anxious he was scratching his head.
Not knowing what had displeased Jiang Ning, he could only quickly explain:
"This time, we absolutely won’t play pranks on the guests like the last time. The filming method is all clearly written in the contract."
"You can search the internet for our new show." Shen Zha told Jiang Ning the name of the program, then added, "We’ve already aired three episodes, and the response has been very good..."
Jiang Ning listened calmly until Shen Zha was almost at a loss for words, then she leisurely said, "Sounds like it might be good."
"Of course! All the guests who come to film with us are our most esteemed visitors!" Shen Zha hinted madly.
Jiang Ning chuckled, "Did you just say the payment is up to me to decide?"
Shen Zha came back to his senses, belatedly realizing the bold claim he had just made.
He clutched his little purse, with a resigned tone, "Yes, you name it!"
"Alright then." There was a hint of danger in Jiang Ning’s voice.
Through the sparkling clean window, reflecting off her fair face, emerged a grin like one might have when about to slaughter a pig.
Two minutes later, Jiang Ning spoke, "Pleasure doing business with you."
On the phone, Shen Zha, one hand clutching his leaking, patched-up wallet and the other over his heart, wore a face that looked like he was about to cry but not crying, "...Pleasure doing business with you."
As soon as the call ended, Shen Zha immediately turned to find Chen Yan.
He’d been slaughtered like a pig!
And it was he himself who had eagerly offered himself up for the slaughter!
Shen Zha felt so heartbroken he could barely breathe; he felt like he wouldn’t recover from this any time soon.
And now, he had to quickly draft a contract and hurry to sign it with Jiang Ning, transferring the deposit into her account, for fear that she might change her mind.
Always the hunter, today he was pecked by the geese.
Normally, it was always he who fooled others, but today he had taken a serious fall.
