Chapter 19 - Job Hunting (1)
Su Ran didn’t pay too much attention to this little incident that took place in front of the bar.
After she had returned home, Su Ran pulled out her cellphone and broke the 10-minute recording into 10 separate files and sent them to a few different studios separately. She also packaged them up together and sent them to Shengding Entertainment’s public email.
Shengding Entertainment was the biggest entertainment company right now and also the company of Lu Boyang, the second male lead.
In the original novel, this evildoer second male lead, with his playboyish front was actually a faithful person. He had attracted his fair share of fans amongst the readers.
At the end of the novel, the female lead must end up with the male lead. As for Lu Boyang, he smiled and congratulated the female lead. He never got married.
Even though some readers felt that they have spotted some sweetness in a conversation between the second male lead and the female lead’s 16-year-old daughter, Su Ran believed they were more like interaction between an uncle and his niece.
Su Ran would feel very odd if there was anything beyond that. After all, the age gap between the two is quite noticeable.
Back to where we were.
Shengding started out as the second male lead’s toy company. Later on, probably because female lead had got together with male lead, and he had lost the love of his life, he had dedicated all his energy in his business and brought his company to the top of its industry.
There were a couple reasons why Su Ran had picked Shengding: 1) as one of the second male lead’s fans, she naturally has a warm and fuzzy feeling toward his company; and 2) according to the forums that she has visited, Shengding was the most generous in the industry when it came to paying creators for their products.
A year or so ago, Shengding had paid as much as $50 million to purchase a book’s IP.
Su Ran did not spend too much time on the webpage after she sent out her package.
For a big company like Shengding, their public account probably received more emails a day than certain complain hotlines. She’d be lucky if her email was even read and definitely wouldn’t hear back from them any time soon.
Ergo, Su Ran still needed to take care of her most immediate need right now.
After the original owner had completely ruined her own reputation and was banished from her family, she had lost contact with all her not-so-real friends in the past. On top of that, due to the nature of her “career”, she didn’t have much of a social life. The only social app that she has was a WeChat that she browsed from time to time.
Using the original owner’s cellphone number, Su Ran registered for accounts with a few common social apps as well as a few more trustworthy-looking forums and informational sites. She responded to a few hiring ads and also left her own work experience and contact information.
Su Ran received her first WeChat friend’s request shortly.
Confirmation message: Are you applying for a position as a piano instructor?
Su Ran clicked on “Accept”.
[Crazy Zhou]: Hi, I saw your message in the forum. Are you looking for piano lesson gigs?
[su]: That’s me.
[Crazy Zhou]: Are you local in City Bei?
[su]: Yes.
[Crazy Zhou]: Have you passed level 8 in your piano competency?
Ugh….
She had joined many competitions and played plenty of performances. The only thing she didn’t have was piano competency examinations.
[su]: What are the songs required for level 8 competency?
[Crazy Zhou]: Something along the line of Czemy, Mendelssohn, etc.
[su]: What about level 10?
[Crazy Zhou]: Etude in F minor, Sonata in B major quartet…
[su] That’s not a problem.
[Crazy Zhou]: Really?
[Crazy Zhou]: That’s awesome!
[Crazy Zhou]: I have a part time job teaching piano lessons at someone’s house on Saturdays and Sundays, two hours a day. Something came up and I won’t be able to go for a while so I need someone to go for me. Don’t worry, they will pay you directly.
[su]: When do I start?
[Crazy Zhou]: Can you start this Saturday?
[su]: Sure.
Now that she had quit her job, she has truly become a jobless bum.
