NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 178: Superfluous (1st update)
Chapter 178 Superfluous (1st update)
Captain Shu was already waiting at the door. When he saw someone, he greeted him enthusiastically. He held An Zhixia's hand tightly with both hands, "Comrade Xiao An, I finally see you. When I heard Hongye talking about you, I thought It's an exaggeration. I didn't expect that you are really beautiful in person. None of the girls in my group can compare with you.
More importantly, you are so talented, and the programs you write are deeply loved by employees in various units. The leaders have to praise the screenwriter every time! "
An Zhixia smiled and said, "Hello, Commander Shu."
“Hey, okay, let’s go inside and sit down,” Captain Shu said, dragging An Zhixia into the office, pouring tea for her personally, and sitting across from her. "Comrade Xiao An, do you have business to do when you come to Kyoto?" Then he touched his cheek with some embarrassment, "Well, Comrade Xiao An, did you receive the letter I wrote to you before? Everyone and the leaders are very fond of us. The performance troupe has high hopes for me to produce new shows and then go on tour in Kyoto and even surrounding areas.
Look, the price I gave you is not low. We don’t have any new programs for the Spring Festival yet, and the Lantern Festival is coming soon..."
An Zhixia was not polite and said directly: "Captain Shu, this matter is not urgent. My brother and I have returned to the city and live in Dongcheng District. I am here to discuss the program with you. By the way, are you still recruiting people?" ?"
"It's good to go back to the city. I'll go and identify you some other day. We can also live as distant relatives." Captain Shu smiled broadly. "Our regiment is in urgent need of programs. To be honest, the stories Comrade Xiao An gave us are novel. , interesting, and particularly touching and educational. Every aspect is handled in a detailed and reasonable manner. The plot is not arranged to impress and educate, but to express the plot to the extreme to highlight the emotion and education.
Leaders all say that adults should watch more programs like this, as even children can benefit a lot.
However, Comrade Xiaoan, are you asking about recruiting people? who is it? Our performance troupe is large, and occasionally there are one or two vacancies. It is true that we are targeted early on, and it is difficult for me to arrange it for a while. Even my niece is still waiting in line for the temporary worker position. "
An Zhixia raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "This person is also known to Captain Shu. He is Comrade Fang Hongye, my current sister-in-law. My brother and I have returned to the city, and my sister-in-law is still at home, so I came to ask and see. Is there any suitable job for my sister-in-law?
Since there is no vacancy in your group, I will go to other places and ask again. "
Upon hearing this, Captain Shu quickly said: "It's Hongye. She is also a beautiful and talented girl. She is very adaptable and has better conditions than many people in our group. However, she entered the industry a little late and her basic skills are still lacking. , you have to learn it again little by little.
Well, if Comrade Xiao An and Hongye don't mind, and are willing to endure hardship, I can ask someone to get a spot in our art troupe, and I can still transfer your sister-in-law's household registration.
However, I will also explain the pros and cons to you clearly.
The competition pressure in the cultural troupe is extremely high. There is a two-year new student period. If Hongye performs well, he can stay and become a full-time employee, and be provided with an iron rice bowl. The salary and benefits are particularly good. At that time, I transferred her to my regiment to take care of her. This was a change within the system and it was easy to operate.
However, Hongye was overtaken by others and if he did not meet the standard for regularization, he would be demobilized and his household registration would be returned to his place of origin. "
"If I'm not wrong, the benefits for new trainees are better than those for temporary workers, right? Why doesn't Captain Shu's niece give it a try?" An Zhixia asked generously with a smile.
Captain Shu choked up and said coquettishly: "Comrade Xiao An, I can arrange for my niece with average qualifications to join the art troupe for training, but she will not be able to endure hardships, and she will never be able to climb among the outstanding girls with her ability. Come out. Am I going to go through the back door and ask someone to let her pass? Those girls who were eliminated will be the first to be unwilling and drag me down from this seat."
An Zhiqiu squinted and looked at Captain Shu's expression carefully. He was an actor and had studied various subtle expressions and movements of people thousands of times. He could be said to be a walking psychological tester. Otherwise, she would not be able to rely on this sensitivity to get important information from the other party's words and expressions, and thus peel off the cocoons and get to the truth.
"Is that just that? Captain Shu has been in this system for a long time, right? And you and your family's plan to let your niece enter the system definitely did not arise in the past two years. A person who has received professional training since childhood Even if a girl lacks appearance, as long as she is not deformed and ugly, she can definitely be evaluated as a beautiful and elegant girl by virtue of her dress and elegant posture. Why can't she crush the new students and stand out among them with her basic skills?
After all, a stage play is not like a TV drama. People wear so much makeup that the original appearance of the actors cannot be distinguished off the stage. "
Every time An Zhixia said a word, Captain Shu felt a little pressure. Sure enough, the girl who wrote such a popular program is not an ordinary person. And she regretted a little, why did she drag out her niece when she was so good?
"Comrade Xiao An, you may think that I am a big leader who is in charge of 1,800 little girls, right? But in Kyoto, the leader is so inconspicuous that he grabs a lot of them. Just talking about our Yongyi Performance Troupe, There are more than twenty group leaders, large and small!
There must be hundreds if not thousands of performance troupes of the same size in Kyoto.
As a small group leader, my abilities are limited. Which of those new students has no background? Everyone is taller than me. Except for good seedlings like Hong Ye, who will not be buried, others..."
Before Commander Shu could finish speaking, An Zhixia said calmly: "I understand what Commander Shu meant. What's a delaying strategy? Stabilize our sister-in-law first, and then we'll see if we have any value in two years."
"Hey, Comrade Xiao An, what you said is wrong. I really think about you. My ability is indeed limited. Let's wait for two years and let your sister-in-law come over and then we can discuss it in the long term." Captain Shu said in a panic. .
An Zhixia's eyes were filled with a faint smile, "That's not right. According to what you said, the students in the art troupe have already been confirmed by virtue of their backgrounds. Why recruit so many foils? Is it a waste of national resources? ? Or is there something else hidden?" Her voice suddenly turned cold, "Captain Shu, you'd better be more open about your words and deeds. Since I can promote you from the deputy team, I can easily step you down or even be kicked out.
I hope that our cooperation will be win-win, rather than tipping the balance to one side because of your greed. I'm afraid that the weight will crush you to death in the end! "
Captain Shu shuddered when she was told this, but then her face became stern.
