I started by signing in to a billionaire sister

Chapter 406 The Value of Sound

When Wang Jia asked him so innocently, Chen Wei was slightly taken aback and looked at her.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Wang Jia felt uneasy and flustered under Chen Wei's gaze. She wanted to look away, but she was afraid that Chen Wei would think she was guilty.

She could only continue to stare at Chen Wei with feigned stubbornness.

"Nothing, I just think you're kind of cute," Chen Wei said with a faint smile, walking ahead as he explained. "This 'cake' isn't that kind of cake; it's the big cake of the market."

Little did he know that after all his explanations, Wang Jia had only taken in two words.

When Wang Jia finally realized what was happening, she anxiously looked around and saw that Chen Wei had already entered the elevator. He smiled mischievously and said, "If you don't come over soon, I'll have to make you climb the stairs."

Upon hearing this, Wang Jia hurriedly set off. Because she was wearing a pencil skirt and high heels, she couldn't walk at all and could only quicken her pace.

"Ah!" Unexpectedly, the heel of her high heel got stuck in the gap of the elevator door, causing her to lose her balance and fall towards Chen Wei.

"Watch out!" Seeing the situation, Chen Wei quickly reached out to support Wang Jia.

As they looked at each other, Wang Jia slowly spoke, "I never thought that such a melodramatic TV drama plot would actually happen in real life."

She originally said these things to ease the atmosphere and prevent it from becoming so awkward, but she felt that the atmosphere was becoming more and more awkward because of what she said.

This gaze seems to have nowhere to rest.

"As the saying goes, art comes from life." Chen Wei only let go of Wang Jianeng's hand after making sure she was steady. Then he squatted down and carefully took the high heel out of the elevator door through the gap, swinging it gently.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen." Wang Jia smiled slightly.

"You're welcome. But if you get injured and have to go to the hospital and take time off work, I'll be in a difficult position."

As they spoke, the elevator doors slowly closed.

"So, can I interpret this as Mr. Chen being concerned about me?" To say I'm not expecting anything would be a lie, though it's just a tiny bit.

"If you get injured and hospitalized, it will be difficult for me, the boss, to take charge." Chen Wei put it another way, which, in short, is a superior's concern for his subordinate.

"Okay," Wang Jia replied.

The elevator door opens.

"Alright, let's hurry up and go interview these rising stars." Chen Wei stepped out of the elevator first and gently patted Wang Jia on the shoulder.

Watching Chen Wei's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Wang Jia sighed, shrugged, and took a larger step before her foot landed.

"Chen Wei, look! It really is Chen Wei!"

"I never imagined that we would be able to commute to and from get off work with Chen Wei at his company. I feel so happy."

"More than that, I'm curious about how our voices could make us famous. Is it some new type of scam?"

"What fraud? They're so rich, what would they scam you out of? If they tried to scam you out of your money, they wouldn't get anything. If they tried to scam you out of your body, well... you should just give up."

"They're coming, keep your voice down!" my friend reminded me.

Everyone clearly understood how important it was to make a good impression on the boss, so they immediately ended the argument and began standing at attention.

"Everyone doesn't need to be so nervous. It would be bad if it affected your performance later. Relax, after all, I'm not some kind of monster," Chen Wei comforted them.

Upon hearing him say that, everyone began to take deep breaths and relax.

Chen Wei then seized the opportunity to speak, "Someone just asked, how does one become famous with their voice? That's a very good question. For some inanimate things, the voice is the key to giving them a soul. Take the simplest example..."

"Sister Jia, could you please turn off the curtains and all the lights for me? The darker the room, the better," Chen Wei instructed.

"Yes," Wang Jia replied and began to handle the matter.

Chen Wei then set up a stool, turned on his phone's light, placed it on the stool, and began to perform a simple scene with his fingers, using only his mouth to create all the sounds. As the curtains rose, Chen Wei turned off his phone's light, sat down on the stool, looked at the stunned students, and asked, "So now you understand what it means to give other things a soul with your voice, right? The value of sound is actually very high."

"Unfortunately, I'm uncultured; all I can do is say 'awesome'!"

"It's amazing! Even though it's just a simple shadow, the combination with the sound makes it feel completely different."

"So, sound really does have value!"

……

In the time that followed, Chen Wei continued to act as the interviewer, conducting the final round of eliminations, and naturally, fewer people stayed than left.

However, among those who remained, only those who reached a passing grade were qualified; none of them impressed Chen Wei.

Fortunately, there is room for improvement.

"Next, Ning Meng," Chen Wei called out the name as he turned the page.

"I'm here! I'm here!" a girl's voice rang out, waving her arms.

She wore a single ponytail, overalls, and a white t-shirt, with one strap dangling contrivedly from her elbow.

Chen Wei has no say in his personal fashion preferences.

However, he felt as if he had heard the voice somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place it.

"Introduce yourself in the sexiest voice you can think of," Chen Wei said, raising his hand.

"Okay! Cough cough cough." Ning Meng raised her hand to her throat, cleared her throat, and then said, "My name is Ning Meng. Ning is the Ning of tranquility, and Meng is the Meng of moon plus enlightenment. I'm an elf, you know."

"Hmm!" Chen Wei was taken aback. "Say it again."

"My name is Ning Meng..."

"Not that sentence, the last sentence, I am," Chen Wei pointed out.

“I’m an elf, you know?” Ning Meng repeated.

"Where did you learn that phrase?" Chen Wei asked.

"Don't novels always say that elves are very beautiful? I'm quite confident in my appearance."

Chen Wei wasn't interested in Ning Meng's confidence; he was excited but unsure if it was really as he thought. "Next, I'll say something, and you control your emotions and repeat after me."

"Okay." Although she didn't know what Chen Wei meant by doing this, Ning Meng was willing to give it a try in order to earn a living.

No, it's about striving to the very end!
"Hey, Shido, behind that arrogant smile, I also feel very lonely."

"Hey, Shido, behind that arrogant smile, I also feel lonely?"

Seeing Chen Wei's slightly disappointed expression, Ning Meng reached out her hand, "Try again!"

Her mind raced as she tried to understand the line and what emotion would best convey it.

I tried to understand it again and again, and finally chose the most suitable one.

"Hey, Shido, behind that arrogant smile... I also feel very lonely."

Ning Meng is really nervous right now; she's not sure if she's understood correctly.

"It's you!"
