Chapter 334 Wei Sheng

As a staff member of the third team of the planning department of a medium-sized foreign trade company, 27-year-old Nan Dongjian packed up the things on his desk. After sorting all the documents, he looked at the table below, and then looked out the window at the already dark sky in his heart.

I couldn't help but sigh, it was another day of habitual overtime work.

The pressure and competition among Peninsula Company members in the workplace is really great, especially among the staff at the lower-level positions who are very involved in each other. Staying up late, working overtime, and being reprimanded by their superiors are all the norm.

Nan Dongjian, who was not originally from a prestigious university, has almost completely lost his former vigor and naivety in the past few years of work, and has devoted himself wholeheartedly to the small society of the workplace in his words and deeds.

It was already after get off work hours, and many people had already left. When Nan Dongjian packed up his things and was about to leave, a burst of laughter came from not far away, which attracted his attention.

Looking over there, I saw that a few female employees who had just joined the company were joking with a few male employees there. It was hard to hear what was said from a distance, but Nan Dongjian could probably guess some of it.

These girls, who have just joined the company, have been promoting a TV series called "Misheng" among familiar employees for the past few days. Nam Dongjian once heard them talk about it, and several of them seemed to be interested in it.

I am a fan of the artist Chi Jingyuan who plays the male lead in this TV series. In order to support my idol, I even work so hard to promote him in my workplace. I am really loyal to Aili.

In fact, some employees are quite disgusted with this kind of thing. After all, they have long passed the age of chasing stars and are still so busy at work every day. However, these female employees look young and beautiful after putting on makeup, which is not annoying.

I heard that one of them is a relative of the department head and has some background.

Moreover, they only introduced Amway to their colleagues in the same group, and others could only smile and let it go.

Nam Dong Gun looked there for a few times and shook his head. He left the office and went to the parking lot. He drove his Hyundai back to his apartment after stopping in traffic jams.

Thanks to the section chief who just organized a drinking session the day before yesterday, I need to take a break in the past two days, otherwise today I would have drank one, two or three games until I was unconscious before I could come back to rest.

He bought some miscellaneous noodles to fill his stomach. After washing his clothes, he sat on the sofa and felt a little bored. He turned on the TV and flipped through several channels but didn't see any TV series that he liked. After looking at the table below, Nan Dongjian's mind

Suddenly, I remembered the "Misheng" that Chi Jingyuan's fans in the company have been promoting at Amway these days.

Of course he has heard of the name Chi Jingyuan. After all, it has been really popular in the past two years. EXO and Chi Jingyuan are good common topics to talk to little girls, even if they are not interested in boy bands at all, like Nan

People like Dongjian sometimes go out to find out more.

He is completely indifferent to EXO, but he has watched some of the two TV series produced by Chi Kyung-won because they were so popular. However, from his perspective, he feels that "The Heirs", a drama that is popular all over Asia, is highly praised.

It's very ordinary, plots such as chaebol's Cinderella love are not to his liking at all, and his impression of this most popular idol actor can only be said to be either good or bad.

Jintu drama "Wei Sheng"? Workplace drama?

After thinking for a while, today happened to be the first broadcast on Friday. Anyway, he had nothing to do, so Nam Dong Gun simply changed the channel and watched it with a critical eye.

Thanks to the fact that he is also a tvN subscriber of cable TV.

Jintu Drama starts broadcasting every Friday and Saturday at 10 o'clock in the evening. It was already 9:50 when he sat here. He didn't wait two minutes after changing the channel. After a burst of commercials, it entered the broadcast time.

After a burst of pleasant BGM, an office scene and an overhead shot of Seoul's bustling traffic, the word "Misao" with a rain screen special effect appeared on the screen. "Misao" officially started broadcasting.

The melodious BGM is accompanied by the panning shot of the wilderness rock wall, and at the same time Chi Jingyuan's deep voice narration rings in the ears:

"The road is not walked out, but created in order to go out."

"A road that cannot be taken out is not a road."

With the scene of ruined walls, the right accompaniment and the calm and magnetic narration, an indescribable sense of desolation arose spontaneously at the beginning, but Nan Dongjian felt that this paragraph was very redundant and was deliberately confusing:

"Pretending."

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Keli, played by Chi Jingyuan, appeared in the camera. The screen slowly moved from behind to in front of him, giving him a close-up full-body close-up. He was wearing a straight suit, with a superior figure and special design.

With her forehead-baring make-up, the image of a confident workplace elite emerges vividly on the page. At the beginning, the male protagonist’s first appearance really makes people’s eyes shine.

Even though he couldn't stand it, Nan Dongjian, who was looking at his attitude, couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "This guy is really good-looking. No wonder there are many employees who graduated from universities who are his fans."

However, I soon became a little disdainful of this casting. I felt that it was just the old-fashioned omnipotent handsome guy protagonist from the Peninsula idol drama. Even if it is a workplace drama, it is just an idol drama wearing skin.

In the reality he knows, someone who is so good-looking will definitely be jealous of others in the workplace. If it is a girl, it may be an advantage, but if it is a man, it is really not necessarily the case.

Unless there are connections and background.

Although I complained a lot in my heart, the quality of the footage in this section really impressed Nam Dong-jian. He felt that the pictures and footage had the style and quality of a movie.

These are the scenes that Chi Jingyuan and the others shot in Jordan before. They placed the plots of the last two episodes in the first episode to arouse suspense.

The entire opening scene is to show the grown-up Zhang Keli's spirit and decisiveness and maturity in handling things from all aspects.

Although I watched it with a critical eye, Nan Dongjian quickly got involved in the tight and intense street chase scene at the beginning, watching Zhang Keli and Xu walking on the streets of Jordan’s old city with a very distinctive style.

It's about chasing each other, and the intense BGM really gives people the feeling of an action movie.

"Bang!" There was a loud noise, and Nan Dongjian was startled by the crashing car. Looking at Chi Jingyuan who staggered up after being hit, he was speechless and didn't know how to evaluate it.

He was really shocked by this sudden car crash.

Jordan's foreplay ended with Zhang Clay leaping off the roof of the building and entering the main episode of the first episode. Many viewers in front of the TV did not react for a moment.

After entering the main film, Zhang Keli, who was high-spirited, mature and reliable just now, was suddenly brought back to his original form. The first scene at the beginning showed him working part-time in a bathhouse and diligently cleaning windows.

After washing the glass, he quickly put on his uniform and ran to work as a chauffeur. While panting and running quickly on the street, he used his mobile phone to contact customers.

"Here, give it to you."

Before sending the drunk client to his home, I bent down and picked up the banknotes that the other party had thrown on the ground as if they were giving out alms. I found that it was a banknote with a face value of 50,000 Korean won and the other party gave him too much. I quickly chased after him and wanted to tell him, but the other party

He waved his hand casually and closed the door without looking, leaving Zhang Keli, who was left silent outside the door, looking at the money in his hand quietly, with a silent and complicated expression on his face.

A few simple plots show the family background and work character of the male protagonist Zhang Keli. Because the family is very difficult, he works various part-time jobs, including cleaning, driving, etc.

, very hard every day.

However, although Zhang Keli is a single-parent family, his family is very warm. His mother saw that her son was about to go to 'Quan International', a well-known comprehensive trading company, for an internship for some special reasons, but he did not have a new and close-fitting suit.

While cheering him on, I decided to buy a new suit for my son so that he could wear it more decently.

When he came to 'Quan International' as an intern, Zhang Keli was assigned to the third sales team. When he just joined the company, he sat there doing nothing, just like a visiting guest, with a dazed look on his face. However, he was soon noticed.

Jin Daming, the agent of the third sales team, called him up to the rooftop and started to check his bottom.

"Your name is Zhang..." Jin Daming knocked on the cigarette case on the rooftop and a cigarette popped out. He held it in his hand without lighting it, and without any intention of smoking, he put the cigarette case in and looked at the other person with a smile on his face.

asked without smiling.

"Zhang Keli, my name is Zhang Keli."

"how old are you?"

"26 years old."

"I think you stopped studying after passing the college entrance examination?"

"Yes." The smile that had appeared on Zhang Keli's face just now, played by Chi Jingyuan, suddenly froze, his eyes wandered, and he responded softly.

"Did you drop out of high school? Or just don't want to go to school, or something happened?"

"I didn't go to school..."

"Why?"

"..."

"Do you have any work experience?"

"..."

"Do you speak English or other foreign languages?"

"Won't……"

A few simple but straightforward questions revealed Zhang Keli's self-esteem layer by layer, leaving him not knowing how to answer, so he could only respond with silence.

With just a few words, Jin Daming figured out Zhang Keli's background. He immediately lost interest and casually greeted him before leaving.

Zhang Keli, on the other hand, squatted down, picked up the cigarette that had been thrown away without smoking it, and threw it into the trash can. He stood by the rooftop and looked quietly into the distance, but his heart was deeply filled with emotion because of his speechlessness just now.

self-reflection.

"What have I done in the past 26 years..."

Seeing this scene, Nan Dongjian, who had always had a condescending attitude before, suddenly felt a wave of excitement in his heart.

On the screen, Zhang Keli's shame, self-esteem, sadness and sadness were indescribably complex under Jin Daming's questioning. Although he was across the screen, he could clearly feel it in Chi Jingyuan's eyes.

Just a few glances and expressions, as well as a low-pitched self-torture, made Nan Dongjian instantly understand Zhang Keli's complex emotions at this time.

After being silent for a long time, he lowered his legs that had been crossed for some time, straightened his waist slightly, and continued to read more seriously.

Unknowingly, Nam Dong Gun really started to get involved in this TV series.

Competition among sales groups is fierce. In order to increase performance and busy work, each sales group is short of people. However, the shortages are employees with high education and strong work ability who can make a difference immediately.

An intern like Zhang Keli who has no experience, knows nothing, and has a high school degree is directly regarded as a burden and a connection, and no one takes him seriously.

It’s no wonder that others are like this. Everyone in the workplace needs to show their abilities and values, but Zhang Keli, who just broke in, is like a new-born ignorant child who doesn’t understand anything, whether it’s answering the phone, organizing things, etc.

He didn't know how to document or even copy materials at all. The look of confusion on his face seemed out of place with the busy environment around him.

It's as if he is just a superfluous person.

At the same time, the role of An Yingyi, played by Kang Sora, was transferred. She is also an intern who has just joined the company and is currently working in the second sales team. However, An Yingyi is skilled in business, fluent in foreign languages, and also very courageous and creative.

He handles work in an orderly manner, and he solved a big case not long after joining the company. He is the employee that all section chiefs want, and he is also the most eye-catching one among the interns.

Zhang Keli and An Yingyi formed a very sharp contrast, which more and more highlighted the loss and frustration of the male protagonist.
