Chapter 347: Retaliation! (1)

Tap-tap-tap

Each click sounded like the beat of a drum that was pounding rhythmically on their heart.

“Good evening, Director Li.”

A familiar female voice rang in Li Jianyu’s ears.

He turned his face to the side and asked in shock, “Station Manager Ruan?”

It was Ruan Qing, the deputy station manager of Muyao TV where he used to work at.

Ruan Qing’s impeccable discernment and capabilities were unquestionable. Back in the day, Li Jianyu had come up with several variety show proposals and plans, but no one paid any attention to them at first. Later on, Ruan Qing managed to spot his works with her discerning eye and good judgment, thus giving him the chance to produce a few variety shows that ended up becoming hits.

“I’ve resigned.” Ruan Qing was dressed in a shirt and a long skirt, with a geometrical patterned silk scarf around her neck and exquisite makeup on her face. She exuded the elegance and charm of a mature woman.

Li Jianyu rubbed his hands somewhat helplessly and asked, “Is that so… I didn’t know you were coming today. What’s the matter?”

As a seasoned corporate slave, he still couldn’t help but be a little nervous in front of his former superior.

Ruan Qing chuckled and said, “I saw the recruitment notice for your program production team.”

Li Jianyu was dumbfounded.

Ruan Qing took out a document from her purse. “Here’s my resume.”

Li Jianyu was confused.

Flabbergasted, he looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.

…

In the glass floral room.

The warm colored glazed lights emitted several rays of radiant light.

In just a few minutes, Ruan Qing was successfully inducted into the production team of “Two Under One Roof”.

Li Jianyu accepted this reality in a trance.

He felt like he was truly worthy of being a corporate slave, and he would definitely garner a massive number of clicks if he were to post something in the discussion forums for corporate slaves.

That’s right, Ruan Qing joined the program planning team for “Two Under One Roof” and even rose by several ranks to be promoted to the leader.

Since the livestream was still going on, Li Jianyu explained, “When we wrap up later, I’ll have everyone come say hi to you.”

“Okay.” Ruan Qing switched into work mode in a matter of minutes. She took out her electronic tablet from her bag and showed Li Jianyu the PowerPoint presentation that she had made in advance before saying in a professional manner, “After some in-depth analysis, I’ve concluded that there are two reasons for the crisis that ‘Two Under One Roof’ is facing and the hate that its receiving today.”

“Firstly, while there are people who watch both livestreams and variety shows, these people don’t make up the majority of the audience. Currently, livestreams and variety shows are of equal significance in the country’s entertainment industry. The solution for this is simple, let Two Under One Roof be aired on national TV.”

Li Jianyu said with a bitter smile, “I’ve thought of that too but… we can’t just do that easily…”

Ruan Qing took a sip of coffee and said, “Director Li, please, is there a perfect promotion and wage increment scheme for our program team?”

Thinking that she was joking, Li Jianyu answered, “You’re now second-in-command of our program team, if I promote you any further, you’ll become the boss.”

Ruan Qing said, “I think I can handle it.”

Li Jianyu asked in confusion, “What will happen to me then?”

“I’ll call the shots, and you can be second-in-command.”

Li Jianyu said, “Ruan Qing, you’re really funny, hahahaha…” As he laughed, he sensed that something was amiss. He asked feebly, “You’re not serious about this…are you?”

Ruan Qing smiled.

With the broadcast of the TV version of “Eating Well for All Three Meals”, there were more and more comments on the Internet that were mocking “Two Under One Roof”.

—— [Tsk, tsk, the online premiere of ‘Eating Well for All Three Meals’ has already exceeded 80 million clicks~ Yet, ‘Two Under One Roof’ has garnered only 50 million. Hahaha skr~]

—— [When Shi Sui was still a newbie, he had spoken rudely to Zhuo Yi. A rude artist like him who doesn’t know to be polite to his seniors is bound to be boycotted sooner or later.]

—— [More than 10 million viewers for the livestream? I bet half of those viewers are bots. If it’s that impressive and popular, how can it still be only a web variety show?]
