Chapter 259: My Cat Can Do a Backflip! Interviewing the Cosplayers!
The car pulled up steadily in front of the police station. After Yuan Sisi got in, she leaned against the back of the seat, looking a bit listless.
Feng Hua slowly started the car. Su Yang patted Yuan Sisi's head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's that Gu Zhijie matter!" Yuan Sisi said with some anger, "That damn liar, he swindled several women!"
"How so?"
It turned out that after the police investigated Gu Zhijie, they discovered he had no experience studying abroad.
He had never been an executive at a securities firm either.
He definitely hadn't started any investment company; even his luxury car was a rental!
He was just a vagrant who was dating three women at the same time.
A thirty-three-year-old teacher, a thirty-one-year-old single mother.
And a young girl who worked at a nightclub!
The police did a brief investigation into the female teacher and quickly found that Gu Zhijie, under the pretext of investment, had not only defrauded her of over four hundred thousand yuan but also swindled her friends, relatives, and several students' parents, totaling more than 1.5 million yuan!
The single mother's situation was similar; he used the excuse of cash flow problems!
During the interrogation today, the female teacher and the single mother were still speaking up for Gu Zhijie, questioning if the police had made a mistake and even claiming they would file a complaint... and expose them online!
"Three of them?"
"It's five!" Yuan Sisi said with a cold face, "He confessed to two more!"
"So you were the sixth?"
Yuan Sisi couldn't help but pinch Su Yang. Su Yang immediately counterattacked, smoothly pulling her into his arms.
Yuan Sisi glanced at the rearview mirror and, noticing the driver wasn't looking at her, obediently leaned into Su Yang's embrace.
She said with some lingering fear, "Boss, if you hadn't reminded me, maybe I would have been scammed too!"
"You're so smart, you would have definitely exposed him soon!"
"You just know how to coax me!"
After waiting for about ten minutes, the car turned into a secluded alley in the old urban area.
Then it entered a parking area filled with many cars.
Vans, small trucks, Mercedes, Audis, and BBDs were all there!
Su Yang led Yuan Sisi a few steps straight ahead, turned a corner, and saw a Douhua Pig Trotter shop.
It was only just past five o'clock, and the shop was already one-third full!
Several tables were set up directly on the open ground outside, and two tables of guests had already started eating.
Yuan Sisi said in surprise, "You can even find such a hidden shop?"
"A friend brought me here!"
"Male or female?"
"A man, of course!"
Su Yang could only say "sorry" to Huang Quan in his mind!
"Can we drink?" Yuan Sisi asked as she sat down, "I want to have some beer!"
She was in a bad mood today.
"Sure, I'll drink with you!"
In the height of summer, drinking a little beer didn't matter.
They found a table outside and sat down.
Su Yang ordered directly; there wasn't much to choose from.
This shop's specialty was Douhua Pig Trotters.
Soon, the Douhua Pig Trotters were served. Yuan Sisi stared at the trotters, smelling the aroma, and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
The pig trotters were stewed until they were soft and glutinous, tasting rich but not greasy.
The tender douhua emitted a fresh fragrance, and paired with the chili dipping sauce, Su Yang ate with great delight.
Yuan Sisi also tucked her hair back and nibbled on the pig trotters in small bites, occasionally clinking glasses with him!
By the end of the meal, Yuan Sisi felt quite full, and her head was a bit buzzed from the alcohol.
The two of them went for a stroll in a nearby park. Seeing couples embracing and kissing intimately, Yuan Sisi also took Su Yang's arm, and Su Yang smoothly led her into a small grove of trees.
"Do you want to come over to my place to play?"
In the car, Su Yang held Yuan Sisi and spoke softly into her ear.
Looking at the mischievous smile on Su Yang's face, Yuan Sisi asked knowingly, "What do you want to do?"
"My cat can do a backflip?"
"Really?"
"Of course it's real!"
Yuan Sisi smoothed her hair, her large watery eyes looking at Su Yang, the corners of her lips curling up slightly as she said, "I don't believe you!"
"Come to my house and see, then you'll believe it!"
"You think I'd believe that?"
"If you don't believe it, then forget it!"
Su Yang was quite blunt.
For some reason, Yuan Sisi actually felt a bit disappointed!
She almost had the urge to agree to Su Yang, but her remaining bit of reason held her back!
After dropping Yuan Sisi off at her doorstep and waiting for her to get out, Su Yang waved coolly and drove away.
Returning home, Su Yang, feeling a bit frustrated, stood on the balcony. Looking toward that small villa, he called Qin Shuang: "Sister Shuang, I want to pet the cat!"
On Saturday, Su Yang arrived at Spark Media on time to interview Jiang Yan's group of friends.
As soon as he entered the main entrance of Spark Media, Su Yang saw a group of young ladies lined up from the meeting room door all the way to the reception area...
Most of these girls were quite good-looking and had dressed up meticulously.
Their outfits were also very revealing!
Either hot pants or short skirts... arms, thighs, and belly buttons were shown wherever possible!
Every single one was dressed to the nines!
A photographer was carrying a camera, the lens sweeping past these girls.
These girls were quite bold, not showing the slightest bit of stage fright in front of the camera.
Many would actively strike poses or give a wink!
Being cosplayers, none of them were afraid of the camera; many of them also worked part-time as commercial models!
A tall beauty over 1.75 meters tall saw Su Yang, and her eyes couldn't help but light up: "Hello, handsome!"
"Hello!"
The beauty asked curiously, "Are you here for an interview too?"
Su Yang said softly, "I'm here to give you the interview!"
"This is the Boss!"
Jiang Yan quickly walked out of the meeting room and said.
The group of girls instantly looked at Su Yang in surprise, and then they hurriedly greeted him:
"Hello, Boss!"
"Hello, Boss!"
"..."
"Mm!"
Su Yang nodded with a serious face, putting on a 'do not approach' stance.
The sense of authority he had gradually cultivated, which was becoming stronger and stronger, was increasingly obvious!
It caused all the girls on the scene to become nervous and uneasy.
Su Yang said casually, "Prepare yourselves well!"
Then he looked at Jiang Yan, frowned, and asked, "Why haven't the number tags been handed out yet?"
Jiang Yan hurriedly said, "I'll hand them out right away!"
"Good!" Su Yang turned back to the cosplayers and said, "The interviews will begin promptly at nine-thirty!"
After saying that, he strode toward the office.
It wasn't that he didn't want to appear more "kind."
But facing a group of women, a group of women who thought highly of their own looks, it was better to maintain a certain distance!
As soon as Su Yang disappeared around the corner of the corridor, the dozens of female cosplayers started chattering:
"So cold!"
"So cool!"
"No wonder there are rumors outside saying the boss of Spark Media is a super handsome guy!"
"I feel like I'm in love!"
"I used to think idol dramas were lies, that real-life bosses were all old geezers in their seventies or eighties, or greasy middle-aged men... Now I think idol dramas must be based on reality!"
"Yes, yes, yes! He's exactly like the overbearing presidents in books!"
"The overbearing presidents in idol dramas aren't even as good-looking as him!"
"..."
Jiang Yan looked at this group of chirping, infatuated women and felt a headache!
If she had known, she wouldn't have let these women come!
Fortunately, the three male cosplayers were still relatively normal... Wait, handsome guy, what kind of look is that in your eyes?
At nine-thirty, Su Yang took two interviewers to the meeting room.
The group of cosplayers automatically dispersed, clearing a path!
Entering the office, Su Yang sat in the main seat and flipped through the profiles of the fifty-seven cosplayers.
The two interviewers didn't hesitate and directly began the interviews.
Before the interviews, Su Yang had talked with them; they would conduct the interviews according to the normal process.
Su Yang, on the other hand, would make additions or deletions to the list after the interviews were over!
These cosplayers were all very well-prepared.
Some showed their educational backgrounds, some showed photos of their cosplay outfits, some showed their video account followers, and some showed their various talents!
Were these displays useful?
Of course they were useful; this time, Su Yang's requirements for the cosplayers weren't high.
Su Yang didn't really expect to pick out a cosplayer with the potential for a million followers!
So, education, appearance, video account management, and talents were all bonus points!
Su Yang didn't have much work today, so he followed the process.
Those with too low a morality attribute, he passed over directly.
Because he wasn't clear about what professions these cosplayers had been in.
Unless their potential was truly high, Su Yang would consider relaxing his requirements slightly!
It was only when the male cosplayers appeared that he would take a slightly closer look.
After all, there was still a pecking order in the cosplay circle, and male cosplayers were relatively rare!
He hadn't noticed them at all just now!
The first was a handsome boy with delicate, feminine features... What does that look in his eyes mean?
Su Yang used Business Deduction briefly and then directly crossed out the name across from him.
The second male cosplayer directly displayed his terrifying muscles, making both interviewers unable to hide their shock!
"Do you know the dangers of steroid hormone drugs?"
This was the first time Su Yang had spoken since the interviews began.
"I built this all myself through training; I haven't used drugs!"
"Mm!"
Su Yang nodded without making any further comment.
However, after this person left, he directly marked an X under the name!
Whether or not someone was on gear, could he, a gym owner, not tell?
When the third male cosplayer, Xin Yunbo, appeared, Su Yang's eyes lit up; he was truly quite handsome!
His temperament was indeed a bit feminine, but not in a way that was off-putting.
He also showed his cosplay photos; his ancient costume temperament was quite good.
Especially when playing a Buddha, he really had a kind of non-male, non-female Buddhist nature!
Su Yang deduced slightly and couldn't help but feel happy.
This Jiang Yan was actually quite reliable!
Not long after, Su Yang also saw Meng Yana, the girl who had once cosplayed as Nahida alongside Jiang Yan at a comic convention.
Su Yang used Business Deduction a bit and found that she was also quite promising.
However, when she showed her short video account, Su Yang understood.
She already had seven hundred thousand followers on Douyin.
Her account on Bilibili wasn't being managed poorly at all either!
Su Yang immediately decided to sign her. It was fine to give her a bit more base salary or a signing fee; her foundation was right there!
In the afternoon, Su Yang checked with the interviewers and ultimately selected six decent cosplayers.
Among them were naturally Xin Yunbo and Meng Yana!
To be honest, being able to sign two cosplayers with the potential for a million followers was a bit of a pleasant surprise for him!
Jiang Yan had done a very good job this time!
Of course, this was also certainly due to the greatly increased fame of Spark Media!
Returning to the office, Su Yang asked Jiang Yuzhen, "Has Manager Qian been notified?"
Jiang Yuzhen nodded: "He's been notified!"
"Then let's head back to the headquarters!"
"Okay, Boss!"
Contacting Fengyuan was, of course, to have them spend money.
Now it was time for them to fight the vanguard battle!
