Meizong Wealth Life

Chapter 128 Being interviewed in advance
Charlie was so frightened that he quickly looked away, silently praying in his heart not to smile at him!

He was afraid that he would have nightmares at night!

Betty had already recognized Charlie as one of the finalists she had selected. When she saw him deliberately turning his face away, the smile on his face froze.

hateful!

Another guy who judges people by their appearance.

On the other side, the first thing Alan saw was Hilda who came in with Betty. Her beautiful face and sexy figure instantly caught Alan's attention.

Even though there is a sexier and hotter Gloria standing next to him, after some contact on the plane, Allen has understood that even a playboy like Charlie is in the hands of Gloria, and a woman of this level is not him. Achievable.

At the moment, Hilda was completely obsessed with Allen's aesthetics, so that from the moment she entered the elevator, Allen's heart began to beat wildly.

Just as he was thinking about how to strike up a conversation, a voice that Alan least wanted to hear rang out from beside him at an inappropriate time.

It's Charlie!
This guy also saw Hilda.

"Hi, are you also here for the TV shopping host interview?"

Charlie would not be as hesitant as Ellen when greeting a beautiful woman.

In fact, after looking past Betty, Charlie spotted Hilda and Joey standing next to Betty.

Joey's face was too young, and she looked nervous. Charlie guessed at a glance that she might be underage.

Although Charlie is a scumbag, he also knows that girls of any age should not be flirted with casually.

In contrast, Hilda, who has a more mature face and sexy clothes, became Charlie's number one target.

Hilda originally wanted to thank Charlie for stopping the elevator for them like Betty did, but after seeing Charlie ignore Betty's reaction of smiling at him, her impression of Charlie suddenly changed.

Coupled with the iconic scumbag smile on Charlie's lips at this moment, Hilda, who was often approached by various men, was extremely familiar to her, so she decided to "rectify" this bastard.

"Yes, we are all here to apply for positions. Is this beautiful lady behind you your friend?"

Judging from Hilda's rich experience in dealing with scumbags, a "bee" like Charlie will take the initiative to stick to Gloria as long as she is a beautiful woman. Charlie must have been attentive to Gloria with such a hot figure, so she will go to Charlie. Take eye drops.

Charlie was about to answer when Gloria spoke first.

"No, no, we met on the plane. We happened to be applying for TV shopping host positions, so we took a taxi here together. My name is Gloria. I'm glad to meet you."

Gloria first reached out to Betty, who was ignored by Charlie, followed closely by Hilda and Joey.

This move immediately won the favor of Betty, Hilda, and Joey.

Seeing the four women starting a lively conversation, with no one else able to get a word in, Charlie realized that he had just made a mistake.

He should not discriminate against the ugly Betty.

As an experienced Neptune, Charlie knows well not to rush into action when meeting a beautiful woman, maybe her best friend is even more beautiful.

Now Charlie felt the need to add one more.

Don’t rush to reject an ugly girl when you meet her. Is it possible that some of her friends are pretty?
The best example is right now.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.

Until the elevator arrived at the interview floor, Charlie didn't find a chance to interrupt.

Not to mention Allen on the side.

However, Charlie and Allen heard a lot of useful information from the conversations between the four women.

The most important one is Betty's identity.

This ugly girl in Charlie's eyes made him miss her for the second time.

Who would have thought that she would be the host of this interview.

Until he walked out of the elevator and sat down in a large conference room-like room, Charlie still had an expression of disbelief on his face.

In the end, Allen poked Charlie with his hand, and Charlie came back to his senses.

"I thought about it carefully just now. Otherwise, I should do this interview myself. I can tell the interviewer that I accidentally got the wrong photo on my resume."

Before he finished speaking, Charlie said directly.

"To shut up!"

Allen was anxious.

"You already offended the interview host as soon as you entered the elevator. In this case, what do you think the probability is that you can pass the interview?"

Charlie turned back and looked at Allen seriously.

"You also said that she is just the interview host, not the interviewer. Her job is just to bring the interviewer into the room and then announce the start and end."

Before Allen could refute, Charlie had already changed the topic to the other interviewers in the room.

"Do you see anything in these people?"

Allen looked around blankly.

There seemed to be more than 30 interviewers sitting in the room. Apart from Gloria, Hilda and Joey whom I met in the elevator, there was only one girl with big eyes and blond hair who caught the eye.

Charlie had just had a bad meal at Hilda's place, and immediately set his sights on other girls. Even Allen couldn't stand this behavior.

Just as he was about to scold Charlie, something came out of his mouth.

"You've discovered it, right? There are definitely no more than ten female interviewers in this room."

Allen was taken aback.

So?

"So I guess the female host being recruited this time may have already been selected, and the interview is just a formality."

Charlie said very firmly.

Allen blinked hard, but still didn't understand what it meant.

Charlie had no choice but to further explain to Allen:
"The host role that Gloria applied for was not announced in the newspaper at all, so she must be one of the default candidates."

Allen nodded subconsciously, he agreed with this.

Charlie continued:
"And Hilda, she is Betty's sister. Betty can't let her sister come to an interview with no chance at all, so I guess Hilda's competitors may be the remaining women in their 40s."

Allen didn't understand this.

Why are Hilda's competitors all middle-aged women who are more than ten years older than her, instead of Joey and another girl whose name is unknown yet.

"Because those two girls are also among the designated candidates!"

Charlie answered directly.

Allen had an expression of unknown shock on his face, turned to Charlie and asked:

"How did you know?"

"Of course I guessed."

"..."

"Okay, that's not the point. What we need to pay most attention to now are the male interviewers, because they are our competitors."

After Charlie whispered this, Allen glanced around and found that the male interviewers around him hardly talked to each other.

It seems that Charlie has hit the mark again.

Charlie's voice continued to ring in his ears.

"You can ignore those old guys because they are not competing for the same role as us. You only need to focus on those guys in their 40s who look very popular with women."

Alan soon noticed the people Charlie was talking about. Judging by their appearance, they all looked threatening.

"Now do you still think it would be better for you to attend the interview yourself rather than for me to attend it for you?"

Allen was stunned when he heard this.

What do you mean, you say I'm ugly?
Charlie patted Alan on the shoulder and told him not to lose heart.Betty and Hilda can be biological sisters, so it is understandable that he and Alan have such a big difference in appearance.

Before Allen could recover from the shock of Charlie's appearance, another man came into the room.

He has curly hair, is tall and thin, and looks even worse than Allen.

"How do you explain this? It's impossible for him to compete with those old men for the same role, right?"

Alan asked in a low voice.

Charlie was also a little confused.

There happened to be an empty seat next to the two of them. When the man who looked a little shabby saw it, he walked straight towards this side.

As soon as he sat down, he gave his hand to Alan and Charlie in a friendly manner.

"Hello, my name is Walter."

Allen and Charlie shook hands with Walter respectively.

Seeing that Walter was not as wary as other interviewers, Charlie began to talk to him.

The two had just started chatting when the door to the room was suddenly pushed open.

Betty walked in holding a folder, adjusted her glasses and opened the folder in her hand.

"Interviewer No. 1, Gloria Delgado."

Gloria immediately stood up from her seat.

Betty nodded at Gloria.

"Okay, please come with me."

As soon as the two left the room, Walter couldn't help but tilt his head and whispered to Charlie proudly.

"Did you see the girl with glasses?"

Charlie pretended not to recognize Betty.

"Why, you know her?"

Walter shrugged.

"She's my girlfriend."

Wang Defa!
Charlie's eyes widened.

Walter was very satisfied with Charlie's expression, and then told Charlie an even more shocking news.

"My girlfriend is Jamie Dutton's assistant. You must have heard of that name, right?"

This time, before Charlie could speak, Alan on the side spoke first.

"Really? My son likes Jamie Dutton's novels very much, and he has always wanted to get an autographed copy of the novel."

Walter glanced at Allen.

"Man, I have to say that you found the right person this time. I have helped no less than ten friends get Jamie Dutton's autograph. Of course, you know it is not free."

Before Allen could ask how much, Charlie suddenly interrupted:
"You mean Jamie Dutton is today's interviewer?"

Walter was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he had accidentally let something slip.

"Forehead……"

Charlie took out his wallet on the spot and took out two hundred dollars.

"Then you must know who the other interviewers are, right?"

Walter looked around vigilantly to make sure no one noticed the conversation here, and then quickly took the two Franklins and stuffed them into his pocket.

"Michael Ovitz, the former founder of CAA, that's all Betty told me."

Great gift crab!
Charlie cursed secretly.

When Alan saw Charlie's frown, he immediately asked him what was wrong.

Charlie turned his head and whispered a few words in Allen's ear.

what?
Alan looked at Charlie with wide eyes.

The agency that Charlie signed with when he entered the industry was CAA, but he was later poached by CAA's competitor WMA.

The key thing is that this incident happened when Ovitz was in charge of CAA. Because of this incident, Charlie was once on CAA's client blacklist.

After Ovitz left CAA, Charlie jumped ship again and re-signed with CAA.

However, at this time, CAA had parted ways with Ovitz. Not only did it reject Ovitz's request to return, but it also joined forces with other agencies to suppress Ovitz after Ovitz took over.

Although the battle at the brokerage company level has little to do with Charlie.

But the terrible thing is that Ovitz knows Charlie, so Charlie's plan to pretend to be Allen for the interview was ruined.

Just as Charlie began to work hard to find a solution, the first interview in the next room had ended.

"Miss Delgado, congratulations on passing the interview. Someone will contact your agent later."

Jamie and Ovitz both stood up from their seats and shook hands with Gloria.

Betty stepped forward and took Gloria away from the other door.

Before interviewer No. 2 came in, Ovitz opened the interviewer information at the back.

I just wanted to take a casual look, but when I reached the end of the page, a photo of a male interviewer suddenly came into view.

Ovitz adjusted his glasses to make sure he wasn't dazzled.

What is this guy?
Looking down at the other party's information, Ovitz couldn't help but frown.

What is this mess?

Jamie's voice sounded at the right time.

"Is there any problem with the interviewer's information?"

Ovitz handed the entire folder to Jamie.

Jamie glanced at the photo on the page and had the same reaction as Ovitz.

How did this guy get here?

This subtle change in expression did not escape Ovitz's eyes. He was a little surprised that Jamie also knew this guy.

Jamie quickly glanced at the information under the photo, further confirming his thoughts.

"Shouldn't this man be called Charlie Harper? I remember he seemed to be a pretty famous musician."

Ovitz nodded and said:
"Yes, this guy is very good at writing advertising jingles."

Ovitz briefly introduced Charlie's experience in the industry, and did not mention the old story of Charlie's betrayal of CAA.

As far as Ovitz was concerned, that was in the past.

But Jamie was very interested in Charlie pretending to be someone else and appeared at the interview, and immediately proposed to advance Charlie's interview so that Ovitz could meet his old friend first.

A few minutes later, Betty walked into the room where the interviewers were with a strange look on her face.

As interviewee No. 2, Joey was about to stand up from his seat, but then Betty suddenly spoke:
"Interviewer No. 28, Mr. Alan Harper!"

Charlie and Alan stood up from their seats at the same time.

Under the threat of Charlie's gaze, Allen had no choice but to sit down.

Betty looked at Charlie expressionlessly and said calmly:

"For some reasons, your interview has been advanced. Please come with me."
