Chapter 1090 1190. Value

In the office, Nie Wei got a bottle of orange juice for Zhou Duoduo, poured out the cold tea, and made a new pot of tea for herself.

"How have you been practicing recently?" Nie Wei asked Zhou Duoduo while making tea.

"What else can we do? I'm tired. Besides, we have to spare an hour every day to practice slogans and self-introductions, as well as some sitting and standing postures. We even have to learn to start dancing in high heels. Why don't we let it go? Wearing socks, you can see my toes and ankles are all raw.”

As she spoke, Zhou Duoduo easily raised her foot to move her foot towards Nie Wei, but as soon as she reached halfway, Nie Wei slapped her away with a disgusting palm.

"Get your stinky feet off."

"My feet don't stink. There's no smell at all. If you don't believe it, just smell it." Zhou Duoduo first put her feet up and smelled it to confirm if there was any smell. Then she reached out to Nie Wei to smell it. Nie Wei was watching the whole process. The corners of his eyes were drawn out.

"I think the etiquette teacher in the company is still too tolerant. He should be more strict. At least he should correct your problem of smelly feet."

"Tch, I told you that my feet don't smell bad, but there is a girl with beautiful feet in our group who does. Every time we go to take a shower after dance practice, we have to hold our breath for thirty seconds, which is the short time it takes for her to take off her shoes. The smell is so strong, you don’t know, her feet are sweaty, even smoking when she takes off her shoes, just like your boiling teapot, exuding a smell visible to the naked eye, the smell is so sour and refreshing. , you won’t forget it once you smell it.”

Zhou Duoduo described the scene and taste vividly, but Nie Wei couldn't bear to look directly at his freshly boiled pot of tea.

"Okay, no need to say it, I can already feel the sour feeling you said." Nie Wei stretched out her hand to stop Zhou Duoduo from continuing, but then she said seriously: "Don't say such words in the future. Don't tell anyone, even behind your back. Girls' foot odor is not a glorious thing. If you gossip like this behind your back, if it reaches the ears of your teammates, it may be buried. The rift in friendship."

"Don't worry, I told you, brother, that I won't talk nonsense about others." Zhou Duoduo was not impatient when faced with Nie Wei's instructions and answered seriously.

Nie Wei smiled helplessly and added: "You don't have to tell me anymore. Do you think I'm too idle? Do you want to hear your story about your teammates' stinky feet?"

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, go back to practice. I heard from Peng Yan that you were ranked third from the bottom of the group in the last vocal exam."

"Who is Peng Yan?" Zhou Duoduo was stunned.

"That's your LEO director." Nie Wei replied.

"Ah, how could he still make a snitch?" When Zhou Duoduo heard that he was the director of LEO, he seemed to be stimulated and went crazy.

After all, she has been extremely good since she was a child, and she is at the forefront of the class every time she takes exams. But sometimes, no matter how diligent or smart she is, she can't compete with talent.

And Zhou Duoduo just happens to be the type with little singing talent.

Although after a long period of instruction from a professional vocal teacher, Zhou Duoduo has mastered the idea of ​​using her breath instead of her voice, and she can also control the rhythm. However, her voice is innate and cannot be changed. Her voice is destined to make her unable to sing. No amount of skill can make up for the kind of songs that touch people's hearts.

Just like some people, even if they don’t learn anything, their singing sounds good to others. But for people with no talent like Zhou Duoduo, it’s useless no matter how well they learn. In terms of vocal range, Zhou Duoduo is superior. If she doesn't go down or lower down, she just can't reach some vocal ranges. This is what ordinary people call a broken voice.

Zhou Duoduo has such a broken voice. Among ordinary people, she might be able to stand out with her good skills, but in front of her equally skilled and talented teammates, her vocal performance is not good enough.

So even if she got a B grade in the previous exam, she would still be ranked in the middle or top among the nearly 200 trainees at Huayi, but in the new girl group that is about to be formed, she will be one of the bottom.

Fortunately, the girl group has never been a team that only looks at a single talent. Zhou Duoduo is not good at singing, but she has a good sense of rhythm and can be said to rap. In addition, Zhou Duoduo’s dancing talent is even talked about by teachers. , has been confirmed to be one of the lead dancers of the company's new girl group.

She is also blessed with her height and figure, and her bodybuilding teachers praise her, saying that even if Zhou Duoduo doesn't join a girl group and instead becomes a model, she will most likely become a supermodel.

Girl groups are originally a group that shows off their personal charm to attract fans, so professional skills are actually just the basics. The singing and dancing of girl groups have never been very difficult. It is just about coordination and good looks.

On the contrary, the most important thing is that the personal charm of the members can capture the hearts of the audience.

Nie Wei still remembers that on the eve of traveling to this time and space, there was a newly launched rocket in the original time and space. There was a little koi in a certain group with extremely poor business skills, but she was very popular. She was even the third member of the team. A member who breaks the circle.

And all this is caused by her strong personal charm.

Many people said that she was not worthy of being a member of that team. Nie Wei felt that this idea was wrong. On the contrary, Nie Wei felt that the team was so lucky to have such a charismatic member.

Because she is a powerful tool to break the circle, she can let more passers-by know about this group, and although her shining point is not in singing and dancing, it is in variety shows, film and television, etc. These places are also where she shows herself and the team. Place can also bring popularity to the team.

I would like to ask, are such members really unqualified?

"This is what I asked for. Why isn't my brother allowed to know about my dear sister's study status?"

"But I'm under a lot of pressure when you're like this." Zhou Duoduo replied dejectedly.

Sometimes she thinks it's good to have such a brother, but sometimes it's not so good. Just like the situation now, it's like her relatives were the principal when she was in school. As a result, no matter what trouble she makes in school, they can't escape their eyes. It feels like being monitored all the time.

"Okay, don't worry, I just ask occasionally, and your performance is actually good. In terms of vocal music, you are limited by your talent. Just maintain your current level and learn more about other things, such as variety shows and acting skills. Yes, when you debut in the future, even if I want to help you as your brother, I still need you to be really capable, don’t you think so?"

"Brother, I remembered what you said. Didn't you say that you would take our group to participate in "Infinite Challenge" after I debut? You even created a special episode just for our group."

"Brother, you haven't forgotten, have you?" Zhou Duoduo raised her eyebrows and asked as she looked at Nie Wei's distressed look at her clothes.

How could you forget? Don't worry, I will arrange your debut. "Nie Wei really doesn't remember whether he said this or not, but now that Zhou Duoduo has spoken, he will naturally recognize it.

Zhou Duoduo was extremely happy and said quickly: "A gentleman!"

"It's hard to chase a horse." Nie Wei stretched out his hand and high-fived Zhou Duoduo to agree on this matter.

On the other hand, Wang Zimu received a call from Liu Yi. After learning that Wang Zimu had successfully joined Huayi, he also congratulated him repeatedly.

"From now on, you will be from Huayi. If there are any good opportunities in the future, don't forget me." Liu Yi reminded Wang Zimu slightly in a joking tone.

"Brother Liu, don't worry. If I have a chance, I will definitely recommend you." Wang Zimu replied seriously, which made Liu Yi a little embarrassed.

He always felt that his newly recognized little brother was a bit naive. This kind of person was definitely as rare as a panda in the circle, but he may not be destined to be a national treasure like a panda. Instead, he would suffer a lot of criticism because of his innocence.

Therefore, Liu Yi felt that as the eldest brother, he had the obligation to remind his little brother.

"Zimu, if it's convenient, I can help you check the contract. Although I don't think a company as big as Huayi will dig holes in the contract for its employees, but what if it happens? And I will help you check the salary package when the time comes. It’s unreasonable, I have experience in this industry for so many years,” Liu Yi said.

Wang Zimu readily agreed, and the two agreed that after Wang Zimu got off work, Liu Yi would treat Wang Zimu to dinner to celebrate his successful entry into the company, and help him read the contract by the way.

After Wang Zimu returned to report, the senior supervisor did not arrange for him to join the crew immediately. Instead, he asked a staff member to take him around the company and familiarize him with the environment. This was also a process of showing off Huayi's strength.

"This is the leisure area of ​​our company. If you don't have any work tasks and don't want to go home early, you can come here to kill time, play board games with your colleagues, or play billiards or throw darts. There is even a Small bar, if you don’t need to drive you can go there and order drinks. ”

"This is the tea room. Let me tell you a secret. Mr. Nie and Mr. Wang both like to come here."

"This is the honor room. The trophies on this entire wall are all the honors Huayi has achieved over the years. Look here, Mr. Nie just won the Saturn Awards for Best Director, Best Soundtrack, and Best Actor at the beginning of the year. Here, there is also Sister Ziyi’s Best Actress trophy. Of course, these are reproduced by the company, but every trophy you see here is obtained by Chinese artists.”

"I think you will like this. This is the equipment room. Did you see the big guy in the corner? There are no more than five companies in the world that own this 3D camera. Many big Hollywood companies can only rent it. But these equipments at Huayi are not rented, but truly belong to us.”

Along the way, Wang Zimu could feel the pride of Huayi staff members who took him around all the time.

He felt the same way and felt that it was the right thing to work for such a company.

Especially the honor room with nearly a thousand trophies on display really shocked Wang Zimu, and the equipment room filled with photographic equipment made Wang Zimu feel that he was sitting in a well and looking at the sky. He actually thought that in the morning the vice president That building was Huayi's equipment room, but I didn't expect that Huayi's real equipment room contained much more equipment than that.

Wang Zimu was even lucky enough to experience the mechanical equipment that assists photography for a while. Wearing this mechanical equipment, not only can he control the camera to shoot 360 degrees without blind spots, but it is also as stable as Mount Tai, and the captured images do not shake at all.

Wearing this set of equipment, even a rookie photographer can, at least in terms of stability, be on par with the best photographers.

Of course, top photographers’ feeling for the lens cannot be achieved by machines.

But the stability alone is already impressive enough. You know, for photographers, the most basic thing is the word "steady". Only when the hands are steady can you talk about feeling. Otherwise, even if you have feeling, it's all over if the hands are not steady.

"You know, this equipment was invented by a photography equipment company under President Nie." The staff broke another piece of news that shocked Wang Zimu.

He thought that such a high-tech product would be invented by a certain American technology company, but he didn't expect it to be produced by Nie Wei's company.

After half a day of visiting, he just felt as if he had entered a new world.

He also deeply realized why people want to go to higher places, because the world you see is really different at different heights.

After the morning visit, the staff also took Wang Zimu to the cafeteria, applied for an employee meal card, and had lunch in the cafeteria.

Wang Zimu was surprised at the cheap price of the dishes in the employee cafeteria, which was almost half the price of those small restaurants outside. He was even more surprised at the deliciousness of the food in the cafeteria. After asking around, he found out that the chefs who cooked in this cafeteria were not simple.

"Can you make money from this?" Wang Zimu couldn't help but whispered after hearing this.

This made the staff member who took him on the tour laugh so hard that his stomach hurt.

"Our company has never thought of taking advantage of employees, so the food you eat now is so cheap because the price of the ingredients is so high, and the company even has a certain subsidy in it."

"So don't bring your previous thoughts from some small companies to our Huayi. The company will not be fussy about your food, clothing, housing and transportation, and will not take advantage of others. What it needs is to ensure that you have no worries about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and then create greater value for the company. Do you understand?"

Wang Zimu nodded thoughtfully.

In the afternoon, Wang Zimu was "summoned" by the senior manager again. In the office, the senior manager asked Wang Zimu about his impressions of the half-day tour.

What else can Wang Zimu say, except to admire.

"Do you have a place to stay in Kyoto? If not, you can live in the employee dormitory, two people in a room, with a small kitchen and bathroom, which is much better than many rented hotels." The senior manager was not surprised by Wang Zimu's reaction at all, and then asked Wang Zimu about his accommodation.

When he heard that there were dormitories to live in, Wang Zimu of course applied for them. However, just as he was about to speak, he asked about the rent of the dormitory with worry.

"Haha, the staff dormitory is free, and the company also subsidizes your water and electricity expenses, but there is a limit. If you use more than that every month, the excess will be deducted from your salary, but as long as it is normal use of water and electricity, it will not exceed the amount."

"Young man, you have to learn to adapt to being an employee of Huayi and enjoy Huayi's treatment, but don't take it for granted. There is no free lunch in this world. The company's treatment for you means that you have to perform better. Only those who can prove their value can continue to enjoy these generous treatments of the company." The senior manager said with a smile.

Thanks to the cow of the train, the fantasy park and 0773 for their generous rewards.
