HUFT Chapter 35
by VolareChapter 35
Chi Nan wanted to learn more about Uncle Fu, so he wanted to search online for information about the entertainment industry. Uncle Fu was in the circle, and if he wanted to be close to him, he would probably have to enter the entertainment industry. But Chi Nan didn’t really want to, so he just wanted to see if there were any job postings.
Chi Nan scrolled through the page with his mouse. Zhang Fang came over, took a look, and started chatting with Chi Nan.
“Nan Nan, have you finally decided to break into the entertainment industry?”
Zhang Fang’s expression was incredulous. You know, Chi Nan’s face, even without makeup, could easily beat a whole series of young idols in the entertainment industry.
“No, I just want to take a look, see if I can find a job in the entertainment industry.”
Chi Nan looked for half an hour and didn’t find any good jobs. Various reasons limited him.
“Are you interested in being an assistant? My uncle has a show that’s hiring.”
Jiang Chen, who was in the dorm, heard Chi Nan’s words and pointed out a clear path for him.
“What kind of show is it exactly?”
“It seems to be a variety show that’s being recorded during the summer vacation. They’re recruiting assistants recently. If you need it, I can help you ask.”
While speaking, Jiang Chen had already started looking for his uncle’s contact information. He briefly communicated with his uncle, explained Chi Nan’s situation, and found out more about the variety show before hanging up the phone.
“My uncle said that there are currently two positions, one is an assistant to the variety show, which is to take care of the team when they’re not filming, and the other is a regular person. This variety show will invite regular people to participate. See which one you want to go to.”
Chi Nan thought for a moment. He wanted to be closer to Uncle Fu, but that didn’t mean he wanted to show his face in front of the public. He just wanted to familiarize himself with his work, so Chi Nan said assistant.
Jiang Chen nodded after listening.
“The competition for assistants isn’t as great, but the competition for regular people is even greater. My uncle sent me the phone number of the person in charge of personnel. Contact that person when you go for the interview. I’ll send it to you now.”
Chi Nan also asked if it would interfere with classes.
“No, you’re basically an intern. I told my uncle that it’s only during the summer vacation, and the variety show should be finished filming by then.”
Hearing Jiang Chen’s words, Chi Nan was finally relieved. What he wanted was a job for around the summer vacation that would allow him to learn about the industry without interfering with his studies. Chi Nan added the personnel’s phone number, and the two agreed on a time to meet. It just so happened that Chi Nan and his classmates were about to have a vacation.
Chi Nan glanced at the time. It was three o’clock in the afternoon. Uncle Fu was going to pick him up later. Newly dating couples seemed to like being together all the time. Uncle Fu said that he had an interview today, and if he didn’t have classes in the afternoon, he could come and watch. Chi Nan didn’t have classes in the afternoon, so he went to the recording site as Uncle Fu’s assistant.
Chi Nan got in the car and sat in the back with Uncle Fu. Little Zhu sat behind the two of them to connect with Uncle Fu on work-related content.
“Brother Fu, I’ve made it clear to them what should and shouldn’t be asked. This is the interview draft, take a look.”
Little Zhu handed the printed draft to Fu Chaoyun. Fu Chaoyun felt the little kid’s gaze while reading.
“Interested?”
Chi Nan nodded. Then Fu Chaoyun moved the hand holding the draft towards Chi Nan, so Chi Nan could see the content on it, which was almost all interview questions and procedures.
Chi Nan glanced at the draft, glanced at Uncle Fu, and then leaned back, started to exchange experiences with Little Zhu, and asked what an assistant needed to do.
“I’ve been with Brother Fu for a long time, and there are fewer requirements. Usually, it’s just helping Brother Fu drive the car, sending things, and so on. Brother Fu doesn’t like to have people around him, otherwise, he wouldn’t only have me as an assistant.”
Little Zhu secretly told Chi Nan. Little Zhu still had a pretty good impression of this future boss’s wife. He didn’t have any airs. Some celebrities’ partners treated assistants like they were serving ancestors, and simply didn’t treat assistants like human beings. It wasn’t like Chi Nan at all.
“Then does Uncle Fu have any other things he likes or especially dislikes?”
Chi Nan asked Little Zhu again. Actually, Chi Nan wasn’t very familiar with Little Zhu, but when Fu Chaoyun was busy, Little Zhu would often tell him, afraid that Chi Nan wouldn’t know. Gradually, Chi Nan and this assistant, Little Zhu, became familiar. Chi Nan initially called Little Zhu “Brother Zhu”, but Little Zhu felt like he was being called “Brother Pig”, so he asked Chi Nan to call him Little Zhu.
“Do you two need to lower your voices a bit more? I’m looking at the draft, I’m not deaf.”
Fu Chaoyun closed the draft and handed it to Little Zhu. Little Zhu took it tremblingly.
“Why not just ask me directly, why do you have to ask him?”
Fu Chaoyun leaned forward slightly, getting a little closer to Chi Nan, and asked Chi Nan with a sense of oppression.
“I wanted to ask about assistant things, you’re not an assistant.”
“No need to ask him, ask me.”
Fu Chaoyun’s words were very arrogant, and there was a little bit of jealousy in them. He glanced at Little Zhu sideways. Little Zhu felt that if that look could kill, their Brother Fu would have cut Little Zhu into a thousand pieces just now with that one look back. So Little Zhu shrank back and didn’t say anything, not even daring to let his eyes wander, afraid of seeing something he shouldn’t see.
“Uncle Fu, are you jealous?”
Chi Nan noticed something was wrong, and then felt that Uncle Fu was probably jealous. How could he be so childish at his age, even more childish than him? Chi Nan looked at Uncle Fu with a bit of teasing.
“Who said that? I would be jealous of you? You’re just a kid, how much are you worth to make me jealous?”
Fu Chaoyun changed his posture to cover up his embarrassment. The fact that he was jealous was discovered, and he was even laughed at by the kid.
“Then I’ll continue talking to Little Zhu.”
Chi Nan wanted to tease Fu Chaoyun. Usually, Fu Chaoyun made fun of him, but today he wanted to do the opposite. After Chi Nan finished speaking, he saw that Fu Chaoyun didn’t react, and even wanted to get up and sit with Little Zhu in the back. As a result, as soon as he got up, Fu Chaoyun put his arm around his waist and pulled him onto his lap.
“Don’t talk to him.”
Fu Chaoyun said to Chi Nan. Chi Nan sat on Fu Chaoyun’s lap with his legs to one side. The main thing was that he was already nineteen, not a child. Even if it was initially meant as a joke, it definitely wasn’t like this. What’s more, there was someone in the back. Chi Nan was thin-skinned and didn’t know that the consequence of his joke would be being pulled onto someone’s lap. If he had known it would be like this, he would never have joked with Uncle Fu.
“Let me down quickly, Little Zhu is still in the back.”
Chi Nan spoke softly, but the space in the car was so small. Even if he spoke softly, he would still be heard. Chi Nan was a little embarrassed here, unaware of Little Zhu’s inner activity. When he first felt Brother Fu’s gaze, he shrank into a turtle. Later, when he heard that the boss’s wife wanted to sit with him, Little Zhu prayed to heaven in his heart, hoping that he wouldn’t be fired. He didn’t even open his eyes to what happened later, and kept his head down with his eyes closed, afraid of seeing something he shouldn’t see, and being dug out his eyes by the emperor.
