Chapter 284 251, what a chaotic circle, but I like it! (Asking for monthly votes)

"What's the deal!"
"It's just the same, right?"
Xu Wenqian looked again at the two shopping bags, even the packaging boxes inside seemed to have no difference whatsoever.
She took the Patek Philippe shopping bag and returned upstairs.
At this time, Li Manni was in the lounge with a female writer named Ai Li, discussing a collaboration.
The other party's new book was about to be launched, and they were hoping for promotional support from Jiangcheng Newspaper Group, of course, for a fee.
Actually, such matters didn't require the best-selling author Ai Li to handle personally, but Since she was in Jiangcheng to discuss the rights development cooperation for her new book with Tianmei, she made the trip herself.
She and Li Manni got along quite well and quickly reached a consensus on their collaboration.
When Xu Wenqian returned, the two were no longer talking about work; they'd moved on to discussing their experiences with social media.
"Manni, this is from Mr. Yang," Xu Wenqian said, handing over the shopping bag in her left hand to Li Manni while Ai Li was taking a sip of coffee.
"Wow!"
"Patek Philippe, huh!" Ai Li set down her coffee cup and remarked.
"Ai Li, do you know about Patek Philippe?"
"I'm really curious, what's the difference between mine and Manni's?"
As she spoke, Xu Wenqian also placed her shopping bag on the table.
"I only know a little bit," Ai Li said with a smile and a nod. "But I need to see the actual watches."
"Ai Li, then please take a look..."
Xu Wenqian was intrigued, then she and Li Manni began to unpack the packaging together.
Upon seeing the different styles of two watches in the boxes, Xu Wenqian had already spotted the difference because Li Manni's watch looked glamorous, while hers seemed more ordinary.
"This is a Gondolo series pearl watch!" Ai Li exclaimed with a shocked expression upon seeing Li Manni's watch.
"Ai Li, is this watch very expensive?" Wenqian asked curiously.
"Of course, it's expensive, over two million!" Ai Li said, her face showing immense envy, and then turned to Li Manni, commenting, "Manni, it was your boyfriend who gave you this watch, right? He's really too generous!"
"No, not generous, it should be called lavish!"
Li Manni herself didn't expect a watch to be so expensive, but when Ai Li mentioned "boyfriend," her heart still raced; her brother-in-law's kindness to her was something no boyfriend could match!
Who else's boyfriend would give her a mansion, a luxury car, and arrange a job? Moreover, without his financial support in the early years, she might not have been able to attend Jiangcheng University, and her university life wouldn't have been so comfortable.
There was once a term, "child bride," and while she wasn't raised from a young age, her brother-in-law's influence had been present everywhere since her high school days.
"Ai Li, what about my watch?"
"How much is mine worth?"
Wenqian was now concerned about the value of her watch.
"Yours is a basic model, probably around two hundred thousand," Ai Li replied.
"What?"
"Two hundred thousand!"
If it hadn't been for the comparison with Li Manni's two-million-dollar watch, receiving a watch worth over two hundred thousand would surely have made Xu Wenqian scream with excitement.
But now, she felt an inexplicable sense of loss—truly, without comparison there's no harm.

No wonder Mr. Yang said it was better not to know!
Indeed, there would be a psychological gap!
Sigh~
I shouldn't compare myself with Manni; I should be thinking that Mr. Yang gave me a watch worth over two hundred thousand.
It's equivalent to my annual salary.
Right, I'll post on social media to show off!
I'll feel better then!
Xu Wenqian had a strong ability to self-regulate; she immediately took several glamorous photos of her Patek Philippe watch and posted them on social media: Hard work pays off, rewarded by the boss!
There's actually a skill to showing off on social media. If the picture can show impressive content, keep the text simple to highlight the picture. If the content shown by the picture is average then embellish it with good text.
However, truly impressive people often don't feel the need to show off on social media—they simply have no need to!
Tianmei Media.
Yang Hao had just arrived at the office when Feng Chong came looking for him with a big smile, "Mr. Yang, Xiong Xiaoyan wants to report on her work, do you have some time?
"Xiong Xiaoyan?"
Yang Hao found the name familiar, he thought for a moment, and quickly matched it with a female star from his memory.
Xiong Xiaoyan was known in the entertainment industry for her good figure, and her fans liked to call her "Bear."
Male fans, on the other hand, preferred to call her "big bear!"
Nothing else, just big!
"She wants to report work to me?"
Yang Hao glanced at Feng Chong, suspecting there was something fishy going on.
"Mr. Yang, about the three trainees you liked yesterday, I'm still negotiating. Xiong Xiaoyan happened to be at the company today, and she admires you quite a bit..." Feng Chong said, his eyebrows about to take off, implying something Yang Hao readily understood.
This was the unspoken rule of the entertainment industry!
To get good resources, one needs a backer, or at the very least, to sweet talk the boss!
What Yang Hao was unaware of was that all the female artists under Tianmei were looking for opportunities to latch onto him.
What's the use of impressing directors? Securing the boss could skyrocket one's career.
"Hmm, let her come over."
Yang Hao waved his hand lightly.
A little unspoken rule, what harm could it do to me!
Let the skewed practices of the entertainment industry blow in all they like; I want to see just how shameless these people can be!
"Alrighty!"
Feng Chong left with a grin, and moments later, there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in."
Without looking up, Yang Hao casually responded, his gaze shifting towards the door.
Then, Xiong Xiaoyan, the female star Yang Hao had only seen on television before, walked into his office.
She was wearing a tight red hip-hugging dress, her shapely thighs wrapped in the black pantyhose that men adore. She wasn't the extremely thin type, and could even be criticized for being slightly overweight on camera.
```
In fact, it's such figures that are the healthiest and the most enjoyable.
Those female stars who weigh only about a hundred pounds look terrifyingly skinny in real life, all bones, and let's not even talk about how they feel to touch.
"Mr. Yang, I never expected you to be so young~"
"So handsome!"
Xiong Xiaoyan closed the office door behind her and then began to coo her praises.
Her words weren't entirely flattery, though—while she had heard that the new boss was young, hearing and seeing were quite different matters.
Especially since the boss was actually quite handsome, not at all losing out to some of those popular "uncle-aged" male actors.
As for proactively coming here to kiss up, Xiong Xiaoyan initially had some resistance, as it was like opening a mystery box—what if the boss turned out to be ugly and greasy?
But now, she felt no burden at all and actually thought she'd gotten a great deal.
Even if this man had no power or influence, he'd be fine just as a card buddy!
"Director Feng mentioned you had some work to report to me?"
Yang Hao asked earnestly.
"Yes!"
Xiong Xiaoyan approached the desk with a sunny smile, and with a seductive smile, said, "Mr. Yang, I recently learned how to tie fishing knots with my tongue, want to give it a try?"
"That skillful?"
Yang Hao pretended to be surprised, but inwardly he was even more astonished.
He had thought that this female star would start with some preliminaries after her arrival.
He never expected her to be so direct.
Indeed, high-end social interactions are conducted in the most primal ways.
Like Director Dai, Chief Chen...
After Feng Chong left, Yang Hao had specially looked up information about this Xiong Xiaoyan online; she was also a well-known actress, having starred in many films and TV shows, one of her more popular roles being a virtuous and simple sister-in-law.
Yang Hao had seen that drama and had never imagined that the virtuous and simple sister-in-law in the series could be so sultry in real life!

She truly deserved to be an actress!
Such acting skills were incontestable!
Yang Hao silently marveled inwardly, but the actress Xiong Xiaoyan had already crawled under the desk and started to demonstrate her skills...
MD!
This is the entertainment circle!
Sure enough, this circle is really messy!
Hiss...
One second, Yang Hao was cursing, and the next second, he was thoroughly conquered by the actress's talent.
She was indeed a professional!
Nice~!
Ding!

Detected Xiong Xiaoyan meets the standard for conversion to a cannon cart.
[Yes][No] Convert?
After Xiong Xiaoyan finished her "work report," the voice of the System rang in Yang Hao's mind.
There's such a thing as a cannon cart, too?
Is there going to be a minion next?
Yang Hao looked down at the actress who was earnestly licking up some high-quality protein.
Her figure and looks were indeed good; her low score was probably due to her extensive experience.
After all, the entertainment industry is a big dye vat, where clean people like Xiao Yinqiu are rare.
But something is better than nothing!
A cannon cart is a cannon cart, at least it's not a free gig.
So, Yang Hao resolutely chose [Yes].
Ding!
Conversion successful.
Cannon cart Xiong Xiaoyan online!
Reward: Maintenance fund of five million for the cannon cart!
Friendly reminder: The cannon cart has a working mode, each refueling can last for a month of work, and every day it will randomly earn a certain amount of cash for the host!)
Ding!
Cannon cart refueled.
[Yes][No] Start work mode?
Huh??
Can this work??
Yang Hao's initial thought was just to experience the hidden rules of the entertainment circle.
He never expected a cannon cart to have this kind of function.
Refueling once to work for a month?
Earning money every day for him!!
This is no mere cannon cart!
It's more like a walking printing press.
If he cultivated a few more cannon carts, in the future, he might genuinely be able to lie back and relax.
Refuel once, work for a month, earn Gold Coins every day!
What is new energy?
Charging, hydrogenation—all pale in comparison.
This is the real new energy!
I shall name it: Super Protein!!
