Chapter 832: Chapter 307: Funny Female Celebrity (3)

The bragging has begun.

Wang Zuoyun was still basking in the joy of the reunion with old classmates after many years, completely unaware that the other party had started the bragging.

"So much! Wow, being a celebrity really earns a lot! I saw online that some stars earn 2.08 million a day, which I didn’t believe at first. But now it seems, even if it’s not that much, it’s not far off. Compared to this, studying all these years doesn’t seem as good as being an actor," Wang Zuoyun said with a smile.

However, Wang Zuoyun was not envious of her; she was just shocked that actors could really earn this much.

With a beaming face, Zhang Xiaoyun felt a lot more comfortable.

"Hmm! So what if you have good grades? What’s the use of a Ph.D. then? Isn’t it just over ten thousand a month? Any random film I act in pays enough for you to work for tens of years!" Zhang Xiaoyun thought to herself.

At this moment, she turned her gaze to Yang Chen, who was playing on his phone with his head down.

This guy is quite handsome, pity he’s just a delivery boy.

Zhang Xiaoyun said with a smile, "Your boyfriend is really handsome. But you, a Ph.D., why would you find a delivery boy as your boyfriend?"

Wang Zuoyun hurriedly explained, "No, no, don’t misunderstand, he’s not my boyfriend..."

"I’d love for him to be my boyfriend, but he always thinks I’m going to cut out his kidney," Wang Zuoyun thought to herself.

Zhang Xiaoyun had an expression of ’I know everything’, saying, "We’re old classmates, no need to be shy to admit it. Though he’s just a delivery boy, he’s handsome. Dating doesn’t necessarily mean marriage, of course, you want someone good-looking, at least it’s nice to look at."

Wang Zuoyun quickly explained, "No, I..."

Zhang Xiaoyun immediately interrupted, "I know, I know..."

Wang Zuoyun, feeling helpless, said, "What do you even know?"

Yang Chen couldn’t take it anymore and said, "Shouldn’t we order food first and then chat? If not, you old classmates chat away. I won’t disturb you. I have to go drive afterward."

Zhang Xiaoyun immediately asked, "Handsome guy, you drive too?"

Yang Chen: "Hmm."

Zhang Xiaoyun: "Tsk tsk tsk... Look, look at this hardworking young man. He drives and delivers food, truly diligent. Xiaoyun, I really envy you for finding such a handsome and hardworking boyfriend. I can’t compare; my boyfriend isn’t handsome and lacks diligence. He just sits in the office making calls and reviewing documents all day. Sigh..."

It was only then that Wang Zuoyun realized that Zhang Xiaoyun had been bragging to her all along.

"Haha... So, what does your boyfriend do?" Wang Zuoyun asked coldly.

Zhang Xiaoyun immediately put on a proud face and said, "He’s the Content Department manager at New Power Media, named Wang Heng. I’m a signed artist with New Power Media, and with his help, my career is getting better and better. So, a woman still needs to find a man who can help her as a partner."

New Power Media is a 100% subsidiary of Kanwen Group, and Penguin Technology holds 60% equity in Kanwen Group. Yang Chen is the second-largest shareholder of Penguin Technology, so he can indirectly influence New Power Media’s operational decisions through his equity in Penguin Technology.

Just a Content Department manager, isn’t it just a phone call from Yang Chen for appointment or dismissal?

Is this worth bragging about?

Really boring. Yang Chen stood up and said, "You guys chat, I’m leaving."

Zhang Xiaoyun quickly said, "Don’t! We’ll order food right away; eat first before you go driving. Xiaoyun, we hardly meet, don’t be so thoughtless."

Wang Zuoyun grabbed Yang Chen’s arm and said, "We’ll order food soon, let’s eat a bit and then go. Please."

"I won’t eat, you guys go ahead!" Yang Chen firmly refused and then left.

Continuing to stay would mean listening to Zhang Xiaoyun brag some more.

Once Yang Chen left, Wang Zuoyun couldn’t stay either; she came out tonight originally to treat Yang Chen to dinner to express gratitude.

"Xiaoyun, I’m leaving now. Let’s meet up next time when we have time," Wang Zuoyun said and hurried out with her bag.

Thrilled, Zhang Xiaoyun shouted loudly, "Come on, eat before you leave! Walk slow, don’t fall. Haha..."

Watching Wang Zuoyun rush away, Zhang Xiaoyun stood up excitedly and said, "Satisfying! Revenge achieved! What’s good about having good grades? With a Ph.D., don’t you still earn just over ten thousand a month? I can randomly shoot a few movies a year, and it’s enough for you to earn a lifetime!"

Actually, this is also considered the sadness of this era, where the social status of celebrities is absurdly high and their income even more unreasonable.

Researchers drive social progress, yet their income doesn’t even reach the stars’ fractions; it’s truly unreasonable and unfair.

Wang Zuoyun caught up with Yang Chen and said, "Yang Chen, I’m sorry. Had I known she’d be like this, I definitely wouldn’t have agreed to eat with her."

Yang Chen replied with a smile, "It’s okay, it’s not your fault. Some people finally get a chance to shine, they’ll surely find ways to show off a bit. Let’s go, let’s eat something simple."

Wang Zuoyun nodded and, with Yang Chen, found a steak house, each ordered a set meal, ate, and then both went home.

Lying in bed, Yang Chen sent Yang Dami’s poster to her.

Yang Chen: "Miss Yang, this series of posters is shot beautifully. Are you busy with schedules now?"

Soon, Yang Dami replied with a voice message.

"Thanks, Brother Chen, for the compliment. I currently have three films in shooting, five films in negotiations, and a few variety shows and commercials. Nothing else. Brother Chen, do you have anything? If you do, just say. I’ll definitely prioritize your matters."
