278: Don't doubt the vision of the rich

Perhaps the advertisements Wan Yuanliang and his friends posted in several group chats had started to work.

Not long after Feng Zhiquan left, the shop finally welcomed its first customer.

Since Yu Jinle had worked part-time at a milk tea shop, she managed to attend to the customer quite methodically.

Ye Su stayed in the shop for a while, and after confirming that Yu Jinle could handle it without getting flustered, he said goodbye to her and left the Secondhand Shop.

Before leaving, he sent Yu Jinle a red envelope of two hundred yuan, telling her to treat herself to a good meal for her first day of work.

Knowing that her old classmate was no longer the same as he used to be, Yu Jinle didn't stand on ceremony with Ye Su. With a "Thank you, Boss," she clicked on the red envelope Ye Su had sent.

After leaving the Secondhand Shop, Ye Su didn't choose to go back to the dorm to eat with his three dudes, but instead returned home.

After ordering takeout for himself, Ye Su got on the Strong Gymnastic Bicycle and began today's workout.

"Ding!"

"Congratulations to the Host for successfully triggering the Beneficial to the Body skill, obtaining 1 point of Physique attribute reward!"

"Done."

After today's Physique reward was credited, Ye Su pressed the brake button, got off the gymnastic bicycle, and immediately checked today's workout time:

"21 minutes, that's two minutes more than yesterday."

After three days of data collection, Ye Su had basically confirmed that as his Physique attribute increased, the difficulty of triggering Beneficial to the Body each time was slightly higher than the last.

He had been busy all morning, and then exercised for another twenty minutes after returning.

After verifying his hypothesis, Ye Su went to the bathroom and took a comfortable daytime shower.

After finishing his takeout, he stayed in the room alone until past one o'clock, then drove back to school for class.

"Industrial and Commercial Bank of China: Your card ending in 9539 received a transfer of 305,200 yuan on June 4th at 10:08, and the current balance is 1,928,419 yuan."

When the fifth period ended, Ye Su's phone received another bank transfer text message.

"305,000, this must be the money from selling the gold bars. I was just complaining about the bank being slow with the transfer this morning; I didn't expect the money to arrive this afternoon."

He had earned 580,000 from selling fish in the morning, received 305,000 from selling the gold bars in the afternoon, and the Working Cat had also brought in 25,000.

In one day, Ye Su's situation-based income had reached 910,000, just one step away from breaking the one million mark.

To truly achieve a daily income of one million solely through intelligence, he would have to wait for the level five intelligence, or for the game Firing at Spectres and the short drama "After Rebirth, I Chose to Become the Empress Myself" to be released together.

"If I can guess the Lucky Dice right tonight, today's income will really take off!"

For several days prior, he hadn't been able to win the Lucky Dice.

But thinking about the 910,000 in intelligence income today, Ye Su started to think that he might have an explosion of luck and guess the Lucky Dice numbers correctly for the second time.

With a daily income of 1.82 million, he could pay for an Audi RS Q8 in full. Just thinking about it made Ye Su feel excited.

"It's broad daylight, and you've got a lecherous grin on your face. Isn't that inappropriate?"

"Lecherous grin my ass. Your own mind is dirty, so you think everyone is grinning lecherously!"

Hearing Lin Jingjie's roast, Ye Su retorted, then hurriedly practiced some facial expression management, no longer letting himself smile unconsciously.

But once he thought about the 900,000 extra in his card today, Ye Su couldn't keep the corners of his mouth from curling up.

...

After finishing the fifth and sixth period classes, Ye Su hurried straight to the building where Chen Xinyi's company was located.

After picking up Chen Xinyi, Ye Su followed the audition address sent by Mr. Wang and sped all the way to the Bay Area Film and Television City, where the temporary audition spot was at the Guang Yu Theater.

Although it was just a short drama with an initial investment of less than one million, there were quite a few people here to audition today.

It was already past four o'clock when they arrived.

But when the two of them walked into the audition spot, they still saw six or seven people sitting on the temporarily placed chairs in the room, waiting to audition.

When the two entered the door, the eyes of everyone else in the room all turned towards them.

There was no helping it.

People who could do this line of work didn't look too bad.

But just looking at the "appearance" of these two who had just walked in, they indeed had an innate advantage over the others.

No matter which role they were auditioning for, these two were their biggest competitors!

Ye Su and Chen Xinyi were also coming to this kind of occasion for the first time and had no experience with it, so they had to find a seat in the corner first before sending a message to Mr. Wang to say that they had arrived outside.

Mr. Wang, who was in the middle of auditioning actors in the room, received Ye Su's message, greeted his colleague, and took the opportunity after an actor finished their audition to get up and leave the audition room.

"Hmm..."

After exiting, Mr. Wang scanned the room, spotted Ye Su sitting in the corner, and nodded to him.

Only then did Mr. Wang notice Chen Xinyi, who was sitting right next to Ye Su, almost pressed against him.

"Damn."

You can indeed doubt the character of the wealthy, but you cannot doubt their taste.

This girlfriend really has nothing to complain about in terms of external conditions!

Mr. Wang had been a producer in the short drama industry for two years. Although they were all small-budget projects, he had handled dozens of short dramas and had seen quite a few beautiful actresses.

But among the actresses in short dramas, there were only a few who were truly beautiful and distinctive, and could be remembered at a glance.

As a small producer, Mr. Wang hadn't had the chance to film those actresses.

So, among the dozens of short dramas he had handled, Chen Xinyi could be considered the one with the best external conditions in his memory.

Most importantly, Mr. Wang took a few simple glances and didn't find any traces of cosmetic adjustments on Chen Xinyi's face.

This was also the issue Mr. Wang was most worried about after hearing Ye Su say yesterday that Chen Xinyi was an internet celebrity who made videos.

Nowadays, cosmetic adjustments are rampant among beauty influencers, and the doctors they find aren't as good as those used by celebrities, so it's very easy for the audience to tell.

It's fine to have these people film modern dramas.

But once they film period dramas, arrow-like noses and chins, or a raised head revealing nostrils barely larger than pinholes, will instantly make the audience lose immersion.

Short dramas belong to fast-food consumption.

If the audience finds it off-putting at first glance, they will just swipe up, and the money spent on traffic will go down the drain.

Looking at Chen Xinyi's face now, as long as her acting skills in the upcoming audition are passable, Mr. Wang is ready to make the call for the director to have Chen Xinyi star in this short drama.

"Next."

Although he took a liking to Chen Xinyi at first sight, Mr. Wang didn't let her cut in line; he still followed the normal procedure and called the next actor in for an audition.

Ye Su didn't take himself too seriously just because he was the investor, nor did he feel that there was any problem with Mr. Wang doing this.

Besides Chen Xinyi, Mr. Wang must have contacted other actresses for auditions.

If Chen Xinyi didn't follow the procedure and cut in line as soon as she arrived, it would clearly signal that she was a nepotism hire. If she were selected by the director in the end, it would somewhat imply that it had been decided beforehand.

How would the other actresses called in by Mr. Wang for auditions feel about that?
