Chapter 178 The trump card

I walked around and couldn't find any other door to enter.

Suri was lying in the car wanting to wait for the paparazzi reporters to leave, but due to lack of sleep, she accidentally fell asleep.

When he was woken up by Jiang Jiaya.

It was already past eleven o'clock at noon. Yuko Hoshino opened the door and returned to the car, saying worriedly:

"There were too many people for interviews, and many of the competitors had pretty good conditions, so I had no choice but to come up with a trump card. The three judges were all in a good mood, but I don't know what the final result will be."

Suri, sleepy-eyed, told her:

"This is just like an exam. Now that it's over, don't think about it anymore. What's your trump card? Playing the racist card? Or moving out the Victoria's Secret CEO?"

Hoshino Yuko hesitated and hesitated, and finally only replied:

"It's okay. Let's go find a restaurant first. I drank some water in the morning and am now so hungry that I could eat a whole cow."

Seeing her changing the topic so abruptly, Su Rui became more interested and brought the topic back again, saying:

"Don't try to fool around. What happened during the interview? If I look for it, I can even find your interview video. Don't force me to call you."

Gritting his teeth, Hoshino Yuko knew that he was really capable of doing such an immoral thing, so he leaned into Suri's ear and whispered something.

Suri was immediately stunned and said in surprise: "You can actually dance hula?!"

"You're going to die. Keep your voice down. Many people in Hawaii know it, and it's not difficult to learn."

Hoshino Yuko was quite embarrassed and said:

"When I was in middle school, in order to enrich my extracurricular activities and apply for a good high school, I also participated in school anniversary activities. Because of my beauty, I became the lead dancer, and a dozen people danced hula on the stage together."

"A few days ago, the interview consultant told me that I should try my best to show my uniqueness. It is easier to get high scores if you have personal characteristics. My waistcoat line is perfect, and it can be shown through hula dancing, which makes people think that I am more interesting."

Suri winked and said to her:

"Next time, remember to jump and show it to me. Now I want to find your interview video even more. I feel that the Victoria's Secret talent show should be more interesting, and maybe a variety show can be produced specifically."

He has been obsessed with variety shows recently and has already found someone to plan an outdoor variety show of the wilderness survival type.

This is because compared to filming TV series, filming outdoor variety shows is cheaper, and it can also have the effect of attracting viewers to recharge their memberships.

If all of them rely on self-produced TV series to drive the growth of Netflix entertainment users, then the cost will obviously be too high.

As the head of the content production department, Suri needs to be smart about her budget.

Find a way to use the funds on hand to attract as many active users as possible. The better the company performs, the more valuable it will be during Series A financing. It is in his interest to release a small amount of equity and get more financing.

Therefore, he also plans to squeeze out part of the budget for purchasing junk copyrights to film variety shows. As long as "The Walking Dead" can get off to a good start, Suri believes that Reed Hastings of the parent company will also support spending the money on "The Walking Dead" first. On the blade.

Hoshino Yuko couldn't hold it in at this time and complained:

"There was someone weird this morning, asking me how I could get to know you. There was a former acquaintance who originally thought she had a good personality, but she unexpectedly said bad things about me in the bathroom."

As early as when she was in elementary school, Suri had discovered that American girls were fighting among themselves, which was much more powerful than in the Mainland.

When he was in college at Stanford, as long as he got close to any girl, she would be ostracized by the sorority, and some girls would even fight for him.

Some time ago.

He just took Yuko Hoshino to walk the red carpet of the Victoria's Secret Party, which meant he had access to many Victoria's Secret executives.

Girls spread information very quickly. When they find out that Hoshino Yuko has a better chance of being selected this time, they will inevitably join forces to exclude her.

Suri only comforted and said:

"We have a saying, "The devil in the temple is big in the wind, and the bastard in Chi Qian is too many." It tells us not to deal with narrow-minded people. No one can be welcomed by everyone. One of the costs of being a star is that he will be criticized by all kinds of people. Speech attacks, I have long learned not to care about those, and only be friends with people I can talk to."

After discussion.

Decided to go to Chinatown on the Lower East Side of Manhattan for lunch.

I happened to park my car in front of a relatively large roast duck restaurant. I looked around and didn't find anything else I wanted to eat, so I walked straight into the store.

I can only say that the various decorations are more in line with foreigners' imagination of China.

Su Rui always felt that the pursuit of classicism was forced, and various combinations seemed nondescript. For example, red Spring Festival couplets were pasted on the bright red wall, and Chinese knots were hung next to them. There was no sense of beauty at all.

Just as he was about to sit down and order, Su Rui saw a waiter walking into the back kitchen holding a large plate of frozen roast duck. The brown duck skin had obviously been roasted.

Probably leftover ducks from yesterday's sale.

Although it can be eaten, freshly baked roast duck is more delicious. If the frozen roast duck is thawed, the taste will inevitably change and it will lose its soul.

So looking for a reason, he took Hoshino Yuko and others to run away.

Then I found a home-cooked restaurant that seemed to be doing a good business, and ordered shredded pork with garlic sprouts, mapo tofu, oyster mushroom and pork slices soup, spicy chicken, etc. in the private room, a total of six dishes and one soup.

The waitress in charge of taking orders, who looked to be at most twenty years old, obviously recognized Suri and whispered as she put away the menu:

"I just saw you on TV last time. You sang very well. My sister has your album."

Suri smiled and asked, "Thank you. I see there are not many people on the streets in Chinatown. Like Los Angeles, have all the young people moved away?"

The waitress was a little nervous and replied:

"Well, many people move to Flushing, Queens, where the rent is relatively cheap. The rent in Manhattan is too expensive. My monthly after-tax salary is only 2,000 US dollars, and renting a house costs 1,000 yuan. With four of my friends, Individually sharing, two people living in one room.”

There are advantages to working in a restaurant. At least you don’t have to spend extra money to eat.

No matter how much you save, up to a few hundred dollars a month, you may be in vain if you get sick.

Even after experiencing the collapse of the subprime mortgage crisis, the average house price in remote suburbs of New York is about 300,000 US dollars. Buying a house is definitely not something you have to think about, it is just making do.

If you open your mouth to comfort, it will inevitably appear a bit hypocritical. Suri told:

"Don't let anyone come in and disturb us. I'll give you a little extra tip later. Say hello to the chef. Don't make the food too spicy."

After the waiter left, Jiang Jiaya said:

"Many people who were around the same age as us when we were young are still living in Chinatown. Their wages are probably about the same as here, and life is very hard. Since you moved to Beverly Hills, you have become a legend in Chinatown, Los Angeles, and people often talk about you. "

Suri said calmly:

"It's just acquaintance. There are not many people who are really close to me. Recently, people often want to use their connections to work on my Lanai Island. I am afraid of trouble, so I only agree to let you be my assistant. The annual salary will be directly to 2 150,000 U.S. dollars, do you think you are so proud that you shouldn’t treat me to a meal to repay me?”

Jiang Jiaya waved her hand and said with a smile:

"No problem, this table only costs one hundred and eighty yuan, no one can take it from me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Su Rui talking to himself:

"Suddenly I'm thirsty. I'll order a bottle of Lafite to moisten my mouth. There should be a dry goods store selling bird's nest nearby. I'll stew it in a pot and apply it as a full-body mask."

Jiang Jiaya's eyes twitched and she said hurriedly: "As I didn't say, whoever uses the chopsticks will pay. I'm not hungry yet."
