My Entertainment Circle

Myeongdong Haidilao, before hot pot became completely popular in Korea, the people who came to Haidilao to eat were basically Chinese people or Chinese students studying abroad.

In winter, shabu-shabu is undoubtedly the most delicious food in China. Whether it's hotpot in the north or hot pot in Yuzhou, these are very popular delicacies in China. Even Internet jokes say, ‘There’s no craving that a hot pot meal can’t satisfy. ’

When Zhang Ping'an entered Haidilao with three beauties, he saw the waiter inside performing a 'juggling' noodle-pulling show. I don’t know why I felt an indescribable feeling of intimacy when I saw a noodle shop in Seoul. And this guy who was doing a lot of 'juggling' seemed to have seen three beautiful little girls staring at him from the corner of his eye, so he caught them. When she performs hard while holding the noodles, she feels like she is dancing, um, enchanting!

After the four of them sat down, they did not choose the four-color soup base, but the Yuanyang pot base. Zhang Ping'an handed the menu to Zhou Xiaoqiong: "You order it, I don't know what you girls like to eat."

"Yeah." Zhou Xiaoqiong took the menu and began to outline the dishes to order, while Zhang Pingan looked around at the people in the store. On the hour for formal dining, there were still a few tables left in the restaurant that were not occupied. However, it looks like there will be a queue soon.

Fatty beef, tripe, luncheon meat, coriander balls, enoki mushrooms... and the coconut milk they want.

When they were ordering coconut milk, Zhang Ping'an said something like: "A group of guys with no ambitions are still thinking about what they can eat to supplement their health?"

Soon the dishes were on the table, the soup base was tumbling, and Zhang Ping'an greeted them to start. Chinese people don't have so many specialties when they get together. Zhang Ping'an ordered a bottle of 'Tsingtao Beer' and was drinking it. The only beer from China sold here was 'Tsingtao'.

Zhou Xiaoqiong handed the beef she had cooked to Zhang Ping'an: "Brother An, do you think it's different from the Chinese beef?"

Zhang Ping'an smiled and said "thank you", put the meat into his sesame oil dipping dish and wrapped it around it. When the coriander and garlic paste was mixed with the beef, he put it into his mouth: "Well, it's very good. In Chinese I asked for the mandarin duck soup base. You know we are from China and the taste is very authentic. Why are you staring at me?"

The three beauties finally got started. The charm of hot pot is endless, especially on this cold night. The three of them kept getting vegetables, and Zhang Ping'an also kept adding ingredients and meat for them, plate after plate. After all, that thin slice...

When Zhang Pingan ordered a second bottle of beer, Zhou Xiaoqiong finally spoke: "Brother An, this time our company's trainees signed up to participate in your variety show."

Zhang Ping'an smiled and nodded and said: "Didn't I tell you that when we met in Incheon last time? I saw you in the information sheet filled out for the program. After all, you are from China like me. At that time, I had more Pay close attention to your information.”

Zhou Xiaoqiong smiled and said: "This time the selection of the girl group is said to involve national participation? Is this true? What about the way to debut??"

Zhang Pingan told Zhou Xiaoqiong: "The way to debut is through nationwide SMS voting. The 11 trainees with the most votes will debut together, which is the so-called 'National Girl Group'. The starting point of this group can be said to be very It’s even higher than the girl groups of the three major agencies. However, the number of trainees participating this time is ‘101’!”

When Zhou Xiaoqiong heard that the number of participants was ‘101’, she curled her lips. Because there were so many people participating, and...she couldn't even be considered the top among the trainees in her company, not to mention that there were kids from outside agencies participating in the competition.

What is certain is that for this show, other companies outside will definitely bring out their best trainees to compete. After all, if they succeed, they will always be known as the "national girl group"!

One hundred members competing for eleven positions can be counted as a one-tenth competition rate. If the people from other companies are of the same level as the trainees from my own company,

Doesn't it mean that she has to fall outside the 20th or 30th place in the overall ranking?

Just when Zhou Xiaoqiong stopped her chopsticks to digest Zhang Pingan's words, Xiaoju and Yang Yueyue also looked at Zhang Pingan curiously and asked: "What does the national girl group mean?"

Zhang Ping'an smiled and said: "The Korean habit is that if everyone likes a certain person or a certain group, they are called 'nationals'. In the past, W.G was the group that sang "Nobody". In their team There is a girl named Ahn So-hee. She was called the "national girl" by fans because of her cuteness. Yoo Jae-seok and Kang Ho-dong were also called "national MCs" by Korean fans. 'It's because all the girl group members selected for this variety show are voted by the audience."

Listening to the voting, Xiao Ju muttered: "The audience voted? Isn't this the TV station that has the final say?"

If such a thing happened in China, it would still be very possible. After all... everyone knows it.

But Zhang Pingan laughed at this time: "Hahaha... Is what you said very possible?" When Zhang Pingan said this, Zhou Xiaoqiong who was sitting next to him raised his head and stared at Zhang Pingan attentively. Ping An, as if what Zhang Ping An is going to say next are some 'requirements'?

Who knew that Zhang Pingan would change the topic next: "But their group only has a validity period of two years. After two years, their group will be disbanded and they will return to their respective agencies. So whoever debuts this time will have a big impact on the TV station and me." There is not much benefit for the program producers, but we hope to get more votes.”

Of course Zhou Xiaoqiong also knows that the 'National Women's Group' only has a two-year statute of limitations, and they went here just to fight for this title. If they can get a name, the company will give them more resources in the future.

Zhou Xiaoqiong asked curiously: "Have any brokerage companies taken the initiative to contact you to 'help'?"

Zhang Ping'an said with a smile: "The people participating in this show this time are all small and medium-sized brokerage companies, and they have nothing to do with it. Even if they can come up with something, I and I will not like it. We might as well make it public, notarized, and treat these companies fairly." For this show, the members selected in this way are definitely the ones everyone loves.”

Yes, Zhang Pingan has trillions of won in assets, so it is almost unrealistic for those who want to open the door to Zhang Pingan's convenience by "stuffing red envelopes". The red envelope was given too little and Zhang Pingan was too lazy to look at it. The red envelope was given too much and small and medium-sized companies could not afford it.

"As for..." When Zhang Pingan said this word again, his eyes fell on Zhou Xiaoqiong. Despite her young age, Zhou Xiaoqiong nodded immediately at this moment and continued what Zhang Pingan said: "I understand, I won't embarrass you."

And when Zhou Xiaoqiong said this, she didn't know where she learned it, and she actually touched Zhang Pingan's feet under the table.

After Zhang Ping'an was kicked twice by Zhou Xiaoqiong, he just smiled faintly. He really didn't expect that she actually knew so much? I wonder if she saw it in a TV series or learned it from a Japanese variety show? Because Japanese women like to play this set under the table, especially in some social places. This was revealed in a Japanese variety show. A woman is calm on the surface, but small movements under the table can give men a good 'hint'.

It is true that Zhang Pingan received Zhou Xiaoqiong's hint, but she is still a minor at this time. Well, next month she will be an adult in China, and she will become an adult at the age of 18!

Originally, Zhang Ping'an wanted to say: "We are all from China, and I will definitely take care of you at some level. I will give you more shots during the editing of this show."

There is only so much fixed broadcast time in a program, so giving so many scenes can be said to be a lot of care, and there is no better way to take care of it than this. With more cameras, more viewers can see Zhou Xiaoqiong, which makes it easier for her to use her beauty to canvass votes.

But what I didn't expect was that she actually made a little move under the table? It is indeed very realistic. At the age of 18, she actually knows so much. It seems that the trainee life in the past few years has quickly made her lose her childishness.

Zhang Ping'an nodded calmly after being hinted by her little gesture, while Xiao Ju and Yang Yueyue, who were sitting next to him, really thought that Zhou Xiaoqiong chose 'fairness'.

We no longer talked about the draft during the rest of the meal. After the meal, of course it was Zhang Pingan who paid the bill. Although Zhou Xiaoqiong said that he invited everyone to treat, Zhang Pingan said domineeringly: "You are still using your family's money, what kind of treat is there? Wait until you make money."

...

After finishing the meal, Zhang Pingan sent them all back to the dormitory. Zhou Xiaoqiong was sent first, and Yang Yueyue was sent next. Although the back seat of the Rolls-Royce is a double seat, the three of them are relatively thin, so it doesn't matter if they are a little crowded, because Zhang Ping'an drank and asked for a driver.

After sending them back, Zhang Pingan asked the driver to drive the car downstairs to Girls' Generation dormitory.

After a while, Taeyeon came down from upstairs. She looked at Zhang Pingan sitting in the passenger seat. She stood next to the vehicle. When she was about to say something, she smelled Zhang Pingan and stretched out her hand to say no. The smell of spices and the breath he exhaled when he looked at her smiling smelled of alcohol. Taeyeon's eyes widened and she said, "You...drank and drove?"

Zhang Ping'an shook his head and said: "How is that possible? I called the driver, paid the money, and let him go first."

Taeyeon nodded, walked around and got into the driver's seat. She adjusted the seat and turned to look at Zhang Pingan: "Why did you remember to come here at this time?"

"I was having dinner with a few friends just now, and a kid who had just turned eighteen was doing little tricks for me under the table."

Zhang Ping'an didn't say who it was, he just said what happened to him.

When Taeyeon listened to the "eighteen-year-old" girl, she laughed and shook her head and said, "Don't underestimate today's young people. Their generation... is really much more open-minded than us."
