The whole birthday dinner was very lively. When Mr. Yuan and his wife were toasting everyone, Yan Xi held up the goblet and glanced around. Almost everyone had bright smiles on their faces, as if they were sincere with the host. Fun.
In the business field, it doesn't matter whether it is true or false, but everyone is a good person, and it is not easy for everyone to make friends with a smiling face. Yan Xi somewhat understands why her parents chose to divorce in the end. Her father is a philistine businessman, and her mother is an artist who likes quietness. The two finally let each other go, instead of torturing each other, it was the best choice.
When her father was young, he was also a very dazzling handsome guy, otherwise he would not have been able to catch up with her mother back then, but unfortunately, the years were ruthless, and the handsome guy became a big winter melon. Before her mother died of illness, she was still an elegant and delicate beauty. Even if she was not as beautiful as when she was young, the charm of her whole body was enough to make women feel heartbroken.
"Brother Song," a tall and thin man sitting next to Song Hai glanced at Yan Xi, "I heard that Ling Qianjin is a graduate student in media?"
"Yes," Song Hai said proudly, "I even won a scholarship in school."
"That's right, that's right," the tall and thin man thought for a while, "Our stage just happens to be launching a show recently, called "Things Around You". If Ling Qianjin is interested, she might as well be the host of this show." He is only the head of the local TV station in the imperial capital. A non-satellite TV station like them has low ratings. Only the local TV in the imperial capital can receive their channel. In addition, Internet TV is now popular, and there are hundreds of TV stations that can be found on any household's TV. Except for some nostalgic locals in the imperial capital who occasionally watch their channels, no one pays any attention.
Song Hai and their TV station used to have commercial cooperation. He still owes Song Hai several favors. Now that Yan Xi has a good image and a suitable professional, he wants to sell it well. Even if her hosting skills are as bad as scumbags, she's not afraid, no one is watching anyway.
"Yan Yan, this is Director Jin of the Eighth Station of the Imperial Capital, Dad's friend." Song Hai didn't agree immediately, and turned to introduce the tall and thin man to Yan Xi.
Song Hai said that the two were good friends, but Yan Xi could see that the friendship between the two might also involve interests. She smiled at Jin Taichang: "Thank you Uncle Jin, I will consider it carefully."
Imperial Capital 8... So there are so many local TV stations in Imperial Capital
"If a good niece is willing to come, she will help Uncle Jin a lot," Jin Tai said with a smile, "Now it's hard to find a host who has the ability and good looks. The good niece must give Uncle this face."
Jintai's long speech is very nice, but even if the Imperial Capital Eight is not famous and the ratings are poor, it is still a TV channel, and there are many people who want to enter.
"She's a little girl, what can I do for you? It's up to you to take care of me and guide me." Song Hai took over the words with a smile and chatted with Director Jin. When Yan Xi saw that the director Jin wanted to befriend her father, she didn't interrupt any more, bowed her head and ate in silence.
It is indeed a place where wealthy families hold birthday banquets, and the taste of the dishes is unforgettable.
After more than half of the meal was eaten, the host brought a cup over to make a toast and thank the guests for coming. Yan Xi thought that such a wealthy family would have a cold attitude towards their guests, but he did not expect to be very thoughtful in terms of etiquette.
Maybe the four members of the Yuan family didn't know any of them, but Yan Xi couldn't feel the slightest arrogance and disdain in them.
Yan Xi is among a group of successful people who can speak well. He just needs to keep smiling and hold up his wine glass. When she lowered her head to drink, she met the eyes of the eldest son of the original family, and the other party gave her a slight nod as a courtesy.
This calm and polite attitude is worthy of being a wealthy noble, and nodding can make people feel flattered.
Slightly dipping his lips with red wine, Yan Xi bent down and sat down when he saw that the Yuan family had already walked to the next table. Song Hai knew that her daughter didn't like the taste of wine, so she scooped a bowl of soup and put it in front of Yan Xi, asking her to suppress the taste of wine.
Yan Xi smiled at Song Hai, picked up the bowl and took a sip.
"What are you looking at?" Yuan Bo looked back when he saw that his brother didn't follow.
"It's alright," Yuan Yi looked back, his tone flat, "I just think a certain guest I haven't seen before is a little familiar."
"Maybe you've seen it somewhere before," Yuan Bo patted his shoulder, "Let's go."
Yuan Yi followed him silently, with drooping brows, so that the waiter who served the dishes couldn't help but avoid him, for fear of making this man angry.
At the end of the banquet, the two brothers from the original family saw off the guests at the entrance of the hotel, and were praised and blessed by countless people.
Yuan Yi took a deep breath impatiently, turned his head to look inside the door, and several people came out, so he stood up straight.
"Walk slowly." Yuan Yi forced a smile.
"Thank you for your hospitality," the middle-aged fat man walking in the front smiled beamingly, looking at him very pleased. Yuan Yi glanced at the young girl he was holding, "You're welcome."
It is enough to be the father of the woman next to him at this age.
The woman next to her raised her head and smiled at him, her eyebrows were almond-shaped, her nose was small and straight, and she looked a little pitiful. He remembered where he had seen the two of them, the last time he picked up a haute couture gift.
Old couple and young wife, a flower on cow dung is a pity.
As for whether the two are for money or for love, Yuan Yi doesn't care too much, the old husband and the young wife or the old wife and the young husband are all tricks that rich people play habitually, and he can't really feel too much emotion. Heart.
When the two of them went down the steps, Yuan Yi noticed that the fat man was carefully supporting the young woman, but he was very precious to her.
"Big Brother," Yuan Yi glanced at the time, "I'll leave it to you here."
Yuan Bo glanced at his watch and knew that it was almost time for his brother to go to bed, so he nodded and said, "Go back, the guests are almost gone anyway."
His younger brother has a quirk. He must go to bed before eleven o'clock at night, otherwise he will have a headache the next day, and his family has long been used to it.
After Yan Xi returned home, he deliberately turned on the TV that had been left out for a long time, and it took a long time to find the Imperial Capital Eight. At this time, a TV series that could not be named, and the male and female protagonists were not familiar at all, was on the TV. Halfway through, the advertisement suddenly popped up, and an exaggerated and harsh male voice kept circling.
"Good news, good news, there is a big sale of electrical appliances on the second floor of Hualai Plaza..."
With the layout style of the advertisement ten years ago, the dubbing of the advertisement fifteen years ago, and the slightly rough picture and the inattentive "consumer interview", Yan Xi began to wonder, does anyone really watch such a TV station
After this exaggerated advertisement ended, another advertisement popped up. This advertisement was actually a product of their company. The style of the painting was still indescribable, but the dubbing of the advertisement changed from an exaggerated male voice to a sharp female voice.
She can probably guess what kind of show style "Things Around You" is, and she can't run away from it.
"Yan Yan, do you want to be the host?" Song Hai pointed to the advertisement on the TV, "This TV station has the cheapest advertising fee, and I am familiar with the leaders of the station. If you go to work, no one will dare to. You are wronged."
Of course it's the cheapest, because it doesn't have much ratings at all, and it's not easy for someone to advertise their home.
Yan Xi has no intention of entering the entertainment industry. Her dream of becoming an astronomer has long since been shattered. Now she is idle and bored. It's not bad to go to a TV station where she can't hook up with the entertainment industry and has a relatively easy job, at least. Not too old.
Thinking of this, she agreed.
Song Hai mentioned Yan Xi's meaning to Director Jin, and Director Jin immediately invited her to a new colleague meeting and dinner, and also said that he would introduce her partner of the show team to her.
Imperial Capital 8 broadcasts TV dramas that few people watch most of the time. It broadcasts 40 minutes of noon news at noon, and broadcasts national-level news broadcasts at 7 o'clock in the evening. After the news broadcasts, it broadcasts the weather forecast of Imperial Capital Satellite Channel, and then continues to broadcast the TV series. , and stopped after one o'clock in the morning.
So the only program that really belongs to them is the 40-minute afternoon news. Now, because the head office proposed the innovation and reform of the TV station, Director Jin thought about it for a long time before adding a column "Things Around You", and the broadcast time was set at 8 o'clock in the evening.
"Director, is the host you invited really a graduate student from the Media Department of Haida?" The cameraman's expression was a little dignified. If this is the case, I am afraid that the host has the most say in their program.
"Not only a graduate student of Haida, but also the daughter of entrepreneur Song Hai," Director Jin reminded several people, "The little girl is still young, you seniors should be more tolerant, teach what you should teach, and don't hide your secrets."
"Director, you are too polite, we are all made up of wild idiots, and we can't compare to Song Qianjin," the column director said with a smile, "Don't worry, we are all at this age, and we will definitely not let young people The little girl was wronged."
For this reason, the head of the station said that none of them are stupid and know how to treat them.
"The family's surname is Yan Ke and not Song," Jin Taichi smiled, "The little girl takes her mother's surname."
Although the few people present were curious about why the entrepreneur daughter did not take his father's surname, they also knew that some things should not be too curious, and the curiosity was too heavy and boring.
Yan Xi came to the appointment place, which was a well-decorated hot pot town. As soon as he walked to the private room, he knocked on the door, and the door opened. The door was opened by a woman in her thirties.
"This is the host we've been waiting for for a long time?" The woman smiled brightly, "My name is Chen Pei, I'm the director of the show, you can just call me Sister Chen." After speaking, she turned to look Director Jin, "Director, where did you deceive the little girl with such a symbol?"
The rest of the people roared, saying that such an outstanding character must have been tricked by Director Jin.
Listening to the fancy boasting of these new colleagues, Yan Xi sighed silently, in this world, it is not easy to do anything, and these colleagues do not know how many brain cells it will take to praise her
Praise her dad and let her live a life with a backstage.
