[Although, wasn’t the mysterious prize already awarded to No.1 Homestay on Saturday evening? Why is there another one here?]
[Regardless, adding the mysterious prize wouldn’t help you win against No.3 Homestay /dog head.]
[No.3 Homestay is really strong. Qin Family, hurry and open a shop, it’ll definitely go viral!]
Gu Yiyi heard this and looked equally surprised, widening her eyes in disbelief.
"Why is it so little? Our business was clearly the best this episode, fully booked as soon as we opened?"
Director Chen was stumped for a moment, then after a pause, he replied, "Because the room prices were too low, and the price for one room didn’t even cover a day’s utilities, this episode was basically at a loss."
Gu Yiyi frowned unwillingly, "How is that possible..."
[...Isn’t this obvious? Still asking, running a homestay wastes a lot of water and electricity.]
[At the time, my little nephew and Momo both mentioned the prices were unreasonable, but no one listened. Is this the kind of business plan a genius from Jing University comes up with?]
[The worst dashing of Jing University’s reputation yet.]
"..." Director Chen was completely speechless. He continued, "So, this episode’s revenue ranking winner is No.3 Homestay. The program team, along with the locals, has prepared a mysterious reward for you—the promotional ambassador for Yufeng Mountain. Later, someone from the local TV station will take you to shoot a promotional video. Gu Zhi and Teacher Jiang, please be prepared."
Jiang Xiangwan was overjoyed when she heard this: "Promotional ambassador? Great! I finally get to be a city spokesperson!"
Gu Zhi was also quite surprised that it was a promotional ambassador role for Yufeng Mountain.
This kind of position, although not very exposed or popular, is a great opportunity to boost national recognition, which is invaluable for someone in the film industry.
Han Liheng was even more envious, his teeth itching, that the chance to boost awareness for free just fell into Jiang Xiangwan’s lap! Damn!
Gu Yiyi also gritted her teeth hard, unable to accept reality for a while.
She never expected this episode’s reward to be a city’s promotional ambassador.
If she had known earlier, she would’ve taken it more seriously...
Although her online popularity is already high, her recognition among ordinary folks and passersby is still lacking. A city promotional ambassador is undoubtedly the best chance.
And it just let Gu Zhi and Jiang Xiangwan snatch it away!
Gu Yiyi’s fingertips pinched her palm tightly, the more she thought, the more breathless she felt.
[Wow, it’s actually a city image promotional ambassador, the program team finally gave a decent reward!]
[Congrats to Zhi Zhi for becoming our Yufeng Mountain’s promotional ambassador, I’m so looking forward to the final promo video!]
[Speechless, an artist with bad records like Gu Zhi can also be a city promotional ambassador? Aren’t they afraid of tarnishing the place? This role was obviously more suited for our Yiyi.]
[Thank goodness it’s not Gu Yiyi, otherwise I wouldn’t go to Yufeng Mountain /dog head.]
Gu Wenxuan looked equally upset, as they lost again in this episode, earning even less than the previous one!
"Utilities are included in the profit, you guys didn’t say beforehand, how would I know?"
He glanced at Gu Yiyi and said in a deep voice, "This was your program team’s oversight, not Yiyi’s fault, the promotional ambassador opportunity should include Yiyi."
Director Chen was at a loss for words.
Qi Hengli, on the other hand, couldn’t help but point out, "Operation management naturally includes calculating utilities along with other expenses in profits, otherwise it’s easy to incur losses."
Gu Wenxuan sneered coldly at him, his tone frosty, "I’m not a business management student, how would I know these things?"
Qin Mo observed and slightly pursed his lips, "Apart from that, the pricing itself is the issue, it doesn’t match the cost and profit standards of a homestay, plus profits also include rent."
"Are you lecturing me?" Gu Wenxuan’s face immediately darkened, "Someone who doesn’t dare to reveal their college entrance exam scores, do you even have the right to speak?"
Qin Mo glanced at him and gave a faint smile, too lazy to argue.
[...Isn’t this common sense? Everyone would know, right?]
[/dog head Gu Family members really might not know, after all, they’re in a different element.]
[Haha, why doesn’t Gu Wenxuan consult his super smart older brother, who’s an economics and management genius with extensive experience managing multiple star hotels?]
[Because his older brother wouldn’t know either haha.]
The atmosphere instantly became a bit heavy. Director Chen, seeing this, quickly said, "There’s another announcement to make."
Once he said this, everyone turned their attention towards him.
Director Chen smiled faintly, glanced at Qin Mo, and said, "As everyone knows, it’s college entrance exam season right now. Yesterday’s exam scores went viral online, and we have a piece of good news to share with everyone."
"And that is—Gu Zhi’s younger brother, Qin Mo, participated in the college entrance exam as a sophomore and achieved an impressive total score of 742, making him our province’s top science student! Let’s congratulate Qin Mo!"
"Additionally, Qin Mo’s performance has been disclosed with permission from relevant authorities, so we urge everyone to handle our top science student’s news rationally and not overhype it."
"We hope Qin Mo will continue to strive for greater achievements in the future!"
[Damn! 742 points!? The province’s top science student? A sophomore!? Is this score real!!?]
[Oh my god, this score is incredible! As expected, everyone in the Qin Family is a genius!]
[Impossible, it’s fabricated, right?]
[? Can college entrance exam scores be made up, you think it’s your idol acting in a role?]
[Haha, just now Third Young Master Gu was mocking Momo for not daring to reveal his college entrance exam scores, I feel like I just heard the sound of face slapping.]
[Ahhh Momo is truly amazing, being a sophomore and taking the college entrance exam with such high scores! So talented and handsome, I can definitely wait for this younger brother!]
The people on the scene were even more shocked, even Qin Zheng was somewhat in disbelief.
He knew the youngest one’s academic performance was extraordinary, but 742 was too extraordinary!
Qi Hengli and Han Liheng were even more shocked, their mouths wide enough to fit a duck egg, unable to even imagine such a score!
"Damn, is it really 742? Such a high score, and you held back without saying anything until the program announced it!
If I scored 742 in my college entrance exam, even the dogs in our neighborhood wouldn’t be ignorant because of my poor promotion!"
"..." Qin Mo’s mouth twitched, "You got admitted without needing the test, that’s pretty good too."
Qi Hengli looked sincere, "Guess why I didn’t take the college entrance exam."
[Haha, that reason is quite genuine.]
Gu Wenxuan found this even more unbelievable, looking at Qin Mo with an icy glare.
"A score of 742? Are you sure it wasn’t faked?"
