Gossip King - Chapter 47
Chapter 47 This Is a Career, Not a Job
“Gao Leng, fatty, buckle your seat belts. You may get angry later.” The old man turned his head and instructed.
When the people in the van saw the three middle fingers sticking out, the horn sounded heaven-shaking and they were infuriated.
There weren’t many cars on the road. Old Diao stepped on the accelerator all the way and turned into an old street. The two lanes of the old street were very fast and the van bit hard.
Suddenly, the old man’s eyes darkened, the accelerator loosened, and the speed of the car slowed down a little.
When the van saw that his speed was slow, it overtook him arrogantly. In just a few seconds, the van was blocked in front of the old crane.
“F*ck, this driver is so awesome! What are we going to do? He’s blocked.” Fatty’s voice was filled with anger and disappointment.
Why did he lose? However, on second thought, Old Diao was an old driver, and so was his opponent. They were all filmed with him. If he got on the bar, it was possible for him to lose.
“Hehe, goodbye, silly hat.” Seeing the van overtake him, Old Diao blocked the road and waved his hand.
And then backed up at lightning speed.
Although this old street was a two-lane street, there were even some private cars and motorcycles parked illegally on the road.
The steering wheel of the old crane was so fast that it was like flowing clouds and flowing water. It quickly retreated like a straight line. In less than a minute, it left the old street and turned, disappearing without a trace.
“Ha! Old crane, your reversing skill is too awesome! I think they haven’t reacted for a long time before you left the old street.” Gao Leng praised sincerely.
“Back then, when I entered the magazine, I was bored and compared to other drivers. There were piles on the ground. We drove around the piles. Whoever drives for a short period of time, they drove along. I drove backwards and won steadily. This grandson wants to explode my chrysanthemum with this little skill? Too naive.”
At this point, Old Diao couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
“However, Old Diao, they asked you for Ah Ke’s address. How much did they give you?” Fatty asked curiously.
“80,000.” The old man said excitedly, “Bah, my business is worth 80,000 yuan? They underestimate me too much. To underestimate me, they have to play with them.”
Old Xuan had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and when he said this, he was even more heroic, as if he was not just doing the work of a low-level driver of a magazine, but also the work of a mayor.
However, strangely enough, the light in his eyes did not make people laugh, instead, they began to admire him.
So many elites in magazines look down on it, and the old man sees it as a career, not just a job.
Career, is worth fighting for a lifetime, and work is just for a living.
Therefore, he did a little more every day to help the reporters see if there was any electricity on the machine. When the reporters were free, he went to the side to see how to operate the machine. When he was free, he would memorize the phone number, the driver’s license plate of the star, and the recent complicated and changeable circle of friends of the star.
As time went on, everyone liked to call old cranes.
However, after coming into contact with Gao Leng, Old Hanging loved to shoot with him. Gao Leng was different from the others. Although he was a graduate student from a famous university and had another apartment in the city, Gao Leng had never looked down on the old hanging man in his heart. This was something that could be seen from the old hanging man with rich social experience.
Just because they liked to call old cranes didn’t mean that they felt that they were good and respected him so they had to cooperate with him. Instead, it was because he had done more than others. To put it bluntly, he was easy to command.
And Gao Leng had never ordered him to do so. Even if he went to the orphanage today to take charge of his own affairs, he had failed. Gao Leng’s cold eyes didn’t even have the slightest bit of complaint.
Not to mention complaining, until now, he hadn’t even said a single word of no.
It touched Old Diao.
Old Hanging couldn’t understand why Gao Leng didn’t treat him with the slightest bit of superiority, but Gao Leng himself understood. Before he was reborn, he was also the lowest level person. He didn’t go to university because he wasn’t smart, but because he didn’t have money.
As for Old Diao, it wasn’t because he wasn’t smart or hard-working, but because of the cruelty of reality. Therefore, apart from admiring Old Diao, Gao Leng also admired him in his heart. Naturally, he didn’t have the slightest intention of manipulating him.
Nowadays, Gao Leng’s favorable impression of him increased even more with the domineering appearance of Old Diao. This kind of serious and unmoved person with dreams was worth communicating with.
“Yes, this is a career, not a job.” Gaoleng nodded in agreement. He turned around and said seriously, “Old Diao, we brothers, if you do well, we will make this business bigger.”
“Old Diao, eighty thousand. I’m not underestimating you, but this is eighty thousand! It’s really rare for you not to be tempted. This is equivalent to a year’s salary, right?” Fatty was filled with admiration.
‘”How can I not be tempted? Eighty thousand? I’ve worked so hard for twelve months, only seventy to eighty thousand. Seventy to eighty thousand can do so many things. I can repair my hometown’s house and buy a car. Let alone my two children, I really need a car to drive them to and from school.”
Old Diao paused, his eyes slightly narrowed, and the corner of his mouth curled into a smile. This was a smile that could only be seen in the face of life’s setbacks but still love.
“But for the sake of a better future, I won’t ruin my career like this.”
The old man’s words paused word by word, and when he recalled it in the car, it also fell into Gao Leng’s heart.
Fatty, who hadn’t experienced any setbacks since childhood, wasn’t deeply moved by Old Diao’s words. What he was most concerned about was the 80,000 yuan.
So he closed his eyes and thought, “If they give me 80,000 yuan, I won’t do it. If they give me 800,000 yuan …” Then, he shook his head decisively and said, “What does labor want money for?”
“I’ll give you a girl.” The old man joked.
“Girl? No, I also have backbone!”
“36D, Tong Yan, 165 tall, long hair, pure Japanese bloodline, good job.” Gaoleng added.
Fatty’s eyes went straight when he heard this. He patted his chest and said, “Japanese girl! Of course you want to eat! Then send a fake address! I’m so cheap, I’m so angry with them. Only after following Brother Gao did I call for work to start. It’s hard for me to betray Brother Gao! Don’t you know that when those younger sisters from the Copywriting Group saw me last time they went to fetch the documents, they called me admiration!”
“What do you admire?” The old hanging was a little funny.
“My headlines! This is the second one. I think after this case, I have to stay away from the copywriting team. Those little girls have to swallow me alive! Just their burning gazes last time …” Fatty shook his head, unable to extricate himself from his YY.
He had already forgotten that Gao Leng was the one who left with him the last time he took the documents. He wasn’t the one who was looking at them.
“I’ve said it for a long time. Didn’t you betray me for the sake of a girl?” Gaoleng was right.
The car echoed with laughter as it sped toward Ah Ke’s house.
