Dragon, choose cultural victory to make money

Chapter 219 What is national is also global
"Why do you look unhappy?"

In the carriage, mother Susan excitedly asked Elsa, whose face was full of "tired, destroyed".

In her opinion, being able to participate in a magic show is the most glorious moment in her life so far.

The people in her hometown village could only huddle together to watch the magic video machine, and she was about to appear in it.

The popularity of magic cameras in the countryside is not as high as in the city. There are only three in the entire village.

Whoever owns the magic camera will become a celebrity in the village.

Thanks to her daughter, Susan also has one at home, which makes her the center of attention.

Until that hateful Mrs. Megan next door bought a larger Magic Video Camera.

Just buy it, why are you still yelling "the screen is too small to see clearly"?

Oh my god, I really want to see Megan's expression when she sees her appear in the magic camera.

"No, I'm very happy, very happy, this is really great." Elsa said like a dead fish.

She is so resistant to blind dates, not because of embarrassment, but mainly because she feels that once she is reduced to the stage of blind dates, she will really be "old".

It's not the kind of old that means you're old in terms of age, but the kind of old that means it's time for you to move into the family stage and everyone thinks you're an adult.

Although Aisha has been working for several years and is a capable assistant who can handle things on her own, she is still a child at heart.

"Smile. You're going to be on the Magic Vision. You'll look better if you smile."

Mother Susan held a small mirror and carefully checked her look.

Elsa was also annoyed when she thought about this.

The makeup team of the original group had designed her makeup and outfit, aiming for an urban, sophisticated woman.

She loves it.

But at the strong suggestion of my mother, the whole family changed into the ethnic style of their hometown.

Completed by Susan herself.

A white silk puff-sleeved top, a black velvet vest, and a long skirt embroidered with various floral patterns.

It seemed rustic to Elsa.

However, the styling team of the program is very satisfied with this. They very much welcome contestants from different nationalities to show off their distinctive costumes on the show.

That's what is said.

But Aisha always felt that the program team was taking advantage of the audience's curiosity and using them to create program effects.

Perhaps influenced by the discriminatory attitude towards outsiders in Shuangta City, she instinctively thought that things from her hometown were shameful.

The carriage slowly stopped, and the family got off and entered the studio with the camera following them throughout the process.

This carriage is certainly not for traveling.

It is just used to capture the players entering the venue.

When Drogo accepted a sponsorship advertisement for a carriage factory, Elsa was curious about how to insert the carriage advertisement in a program recorded on a small island.

I didn't expect it to be so plain and simple, just hard implantation.

"Oh, I guess you are Elsa's mother, Ms. Susan? This dress looks really good on you, it makes you look very young."

Elsa didn't expect that Drogo would be at the door, greeting the family.

"Hahaha," Susan's mother laughed her signature devilish laugh, "You are so good at talking."

Elsa made a face at Drogo from behind to express her mockery of his lying behavior.

But as soon as I finished mocking, I realized that compared to the old dragon Drogo, my mother was indeed young.

Honest Red Dragon!
"Thank you for taking care of our two children these days."

As Susan's mother spoke, she opened her bag and took out a bag of things.

"These are bird eggs that are unique to our area. They are perfect for making fried eggs. Let me give you a try."

"Mom?" Elsa looked at her mother in surprise as she took out a bag of bird eggs and gave it to her.

This is too embarrassing.

"Oh, thank you so much. I'll accept it. There will be preliminary interviews later and I have to be busy here. If there is anything, please let Aisha contact me directly. She has the contact information."

Drogo took the bird eggs, ending this social scene full of greasy adult atmosphere.

After Drogo left, Aisha complained, "Mom, why did you give him bird eggs? They are worthless."

She has a deep memory of those bird eggs. When she was a child, she rarely had meat to eat, so she relied on bird eggs to supplement her nutrition. Now that she has grown up, she feels sick when she sees them.

"It's because it's not worth much," Susan replied naturally. "Given your boss's wealth, he would only be interested in something worth a lot."

Aisha thought that if it was worth a little, he would be interested.

My mother continued, "So it's better to give something unusual to show your thoughtfulness. Learn from it. Although I have never worked in the workplace, it's actually similar to the favors in the village."

"Yes Yes Yes."

"I'm telling you the truth. Your boss is such a nice person. No, such a nice person. He even came out to greet the family of a small employee like you. If you are fired, you will regret it later."

"Him? So good Yilong?"

Elsa's voice rose several degrees.

"He's a mean-spirited person. He takes advantage of others' inability to beat him and mocks them. He also likes to cheat people, even stealing children's money. And, and..."

The more Elsa spoke, the less confident she became.

If you think about it carefully, she was clearly kidnapped, but she still gets a salary, annual salary increase, year-end bonus, various benefits from the group, frequent gifts, usually does not work overtime, and if she does, she must be paid overtime, forced to take paid leave, refuses to be overly competitive, and there is no work news during working hours unless it is particularly urgent.

It seems that he is indeed a very good dragon.

More human-like than other humanoid bosses.

I have worked here for so long that I have become accustomed to this kind of treatment and have forgotten that most jobs are not like this.

Yeah, why aren’t most jobs like this? Isn’t this how it should be?
The church said that we should rest on weekends, saying that the goddess spent several days creating new magic, leaving two days for rest.

Obviously, more and more things are being produced nowadays, so why is everyone’s life becoming more and more tiring?
Shouldn’t everyone’s life be easier?

In the end which part of the problem?

Elsa suddenly fell into thought.

It’s a brain-burning question.

To the extent that I was absent-minded during the early interview phase.

The executive director in charge of the interview tried hard to ask several questions to the boss' assistant, Miss Aisha, who was an important and powerful figure in the group but whom he had never realized.

The responses I got were all like "um", "ah", "ok", and "that's it".

The tone was still very cold.

The young executive director started to wonder if he had offended Elsa in some way and became extremely panic-stricken.

I’m worried that I’ll be fired tomorrow because I stepped into the studio with my left foot first.

Therefore, after the interview, I wanted to apologize to Aisha. Although I didn’t know what I did wrong, it was always right to apologize first.

I walked to Elsa timidly, but before I could say anything, I heard Elsa say, "Thinking so much, what does it have to do with you?"

Totally terrified.

Of course, Elsa was only talking to herself.

Questions like which link went wrong were beyond her ability to figure out.

All contestants and their relatives and friends participating in the show will be taken to a single room equipped with cameras and magic cameras.

As a second scene, shoot the reaction scene.

Mom Susan originally wanted to invite a lot of people to join the family and friends group, but since it was difficult for people from her hometown to come, she invited new friends she met in Shuangta City.

This plan was rejected by Aisha.

The reason is simple, this single room simply cannot accommodate so many people.

Elsa really couldn't understand how her mother could make so many friends in two weeks.

The neighbor's aunt is already on par with her sister. She has strong social skills.

Unlike Aisha, who has moved here for more than a year and has never spoken a word to her neighbors.

Even when I see my neighbors going out on their way to work in the morning, I will deliberately hide at home for a while to avoid the embarrassment of having nothing to talk about.

“Welcome everyone to Feilin Good Songs!”

The host's loud voice came from the magic camera.

Then there is a long introduction to the rules and thanks to various sponsors.

When watching variety shows at the recording site, the pace is much slower than when they are edited and broadcast.

Usually, one contestant's performance and the mentor's selection will take forty to fifty minutes.

Elsa had gone through this process several times and almost fell asleep while sitting on the sofa.

Yuno took out his notebook and started working directly.

He is worthy of being the famous king of the R&D department.

Although Zhuogo does not require overtime, he cannot stop some employees from working overtime.

At UNO, hobbies, ideals and work are combined into an amazing trinity.

In his opinion, he is not a fool, but a self-actualizer. Money is not important.

Mom and Dad, however, were very interested in the slow-paced broadcast.

Elsa suspected that they could both enjoy watching anything on the magic video machine.

"Sit up straight," the mother couldn't help but say when she saw Aisha's slumped look, "It would be embarrassing if people saw us like this."

“Don’t worry, they can’t see it. This is not a live broadcast and it will be edited later,” Aisha explained.

"If you lie like this, will there be too few scenes of our family in the official broadcast?"

What a tricky angle. Elsa was speechless. She actually hoped that she wouldn't appear in the final broadcast at all.

She knows what kind of people are on the Internet.

They have no regard for respect for others when they are having fun.

Given my mother's current look, with her rustic ethnic costume and slightly plump figure, she will definitely be laughed at once the show is broadcast.

She could imagine her mother's smile being made into emoticons and spread everywhere.

And the way folk songs are sung in their hometown.

To be honest, it is so rare and strange that many people cannot accept it.

The singer uses real voice to sing in the middle and low range, and falsetto to sing in the high range. The melody changes rapidly and continuously between the two ranges, and the real and false voices also keep switching, creating a cheerful and funny singing effect.

Cheerful and funny is a nice way of saying it, but a bad way of saying it might be that you are sick.

To be honest, it is a very difficult way to sing. My mother is the best folk singer in the village. She has been teaching Aisha since she was young, but she didn’t teach her clearly.

Just because something is difficult doesn’t mean that people will like it.

I'm afraid there will be a lot of people in the audience who dislike her, but now that promotion is a certainty, there is a high possibility that rumors will spread that it's an internal decision or a shady deal, and then it will be revealed that her daughter works for the Drogo Group.

It’s over.

Conspiracy theories' favorite setting.

This kind of rumor, which is both true and false and has a bit of darkness, is the rumor that spreads the fastest.

Because it sounds interesting and spreads hundreds of times better than the truth.

When the time comes to refute the rumor and say there is no shady deal, firstly, no one will believe it, and secondly, no one will listen.

Then it’s time for those people on the Internet who have nothing to do to show the beneficiaries of the shady dealings what aggressiveness means.

Or I should let my mother disconnect from the internet for a while after the show is broadcast, for fear that she won’t be able to bear it.

Elsa pondered.

From beginning to end, she never thought that her mother's performance could conquer the audience.

In her subconscious, the craftsmanship from her hometown is very rustic and not up to par.

The first few episodes of the program were specials on Shuangta City.

The contestants who appeared were all registered in Shuangta City.

Because this is the headquarters of the Drogo Group and the first place to come into contact with Magic Vision, the number of applicants is much higher than other areas, and it will take up several episodes of the show.

Of course, registering here does not necessarily mean that you are a native of Shuangta City.

The one who just finished her performance is a little girl who is an international student from the Roman Empire.

Aisha had heard of her. She was the first prize winner of the last campus singing competition in Repin.

He is very popular in the Repin Academy, ranking second.

Yes, there is a campus celebrity list in the Repin Forum, and Ms. Fulin has been ranked first for several months.

Who wouldn’t like a strong, beautiful and wealthy big sister?

But this little girl was unlucky because none of the four mentors turned around for her.

I can only regret leaving.

Before leaving, he was severely criticized by Ms. Rowling for various shortcomings.

I have to say that Ms. Rowling played the character very well, being the strict mentor.

It was a bit too good, and the little girl was criticized to the point of crying.

There are good reasons to suspect that Ms. Rowling is not playing a character;

If the plan involves scolding a player to tears, Djokovic, who is responsible for entertaining the atmosphere, should be the one to smooth things over.

However, a problem arose. Djokovic did not play his role well and he did not dare to come out to smooth things over when the Queen criticized him.

The show did not start off smoothly, with no one turning around for several contestants who came on stage in succession.

I don’t know if this was deliberately arranged by Drogo, creating the illusion that it is very difficult to pass the first round of this show.

The more this happened, the more worried Elsa became, because she knew her mother would definitely pass.

With such strict standards, an old lady with a strange singing style passed.

What is this called?
The shady deal is exposed.

As her mother's performance time drew closer, Aisha began to get nervous.

Even more nervous than the mother who was about to go on stage.

Susan was quite a big shot in her own right, commenting on the singers performing at a leisurely pace.

"You don't have enough breath. You're too thin. You should gain some weight. How can you sing well if you're so thin and weak?"

"Notice," the executive director opened the door to the small room, "it's your turn next."

"I can't wait any longer. Watch me make them all turn around for me."

The words were spoken with great vigor.

He turned to look at Elsa again.

"Do you want me to advance?"

"I……"

Aisha didn't expect her mother to ask this.

To be honest, now that my mother is on this show, I actually hope she can perform well.

Even though they occasionally quarreled and disliked each other, she was still their biological mother after all.

"hope."

"Okay, then I'll go and show them the music from the mountains."
