Starting a second career in the entertainment industry

Chapter 94 Why is there never enough money?

The filming of this variety show started at 8 am and ended at 10 pm. Wenrou got up at 5 am, and after more than ten hours, she must be very tired.

Seeing that Wenrou looked a little depressed, Sun Yunyan knew that she was really tired. Being on a variety show is not as easy as it seems, especially Korean variety shows. One has to pay attention to the performance, jokes, and character setting in the show.

Regarding the issue of character setting, Wenrou once discussed it with her agent. The company had no opinion on it. After all, she has a backer. As long as Wenrou doesn't do anything earth-shattering, the company will not make any requirements on it. In short, they don't want you to be too popular, as long as you don't cause trouble.

If she can become popular and bring profits to the company, that would be even better. If not, the company is also prepared for the day when the little princess gives up being a star.

Hearing this, Wenrou felt embarrassed and indescribably depressed. She used to envy others who could rely on connections, but one day she also became the kind of person with a backer and felt indescribably depressed. Okay, then she would know.

Being in the entertainment industry, it is not good to be too real to the outside world. Being too hypocritical will make people bored. Sometimes fans only want to see the side they want to see. She can be very down-to-earth and very real in certain occasions, but not too real or too down-to-earth. After all, there is a distance between idols and fans. Of course, she will definitely not commit suicide. Protecting her reputation is a basic operation for entertainers in the entertainment industry.

She was able to do it in her previous life, so she can't give up her original intention after living again.

Sun Yunyan nodded: "I didn't expect that you would understand so much after just entering the entertainment industry. I feel relieved. I don't know why our company has requirements for artists' academic qualifications. At least reading can make people wise. Of course, I don't discriminate against those with low academic qualifications. Don't look at me like that."

"I'm like, Sister Yunyan, academic qualifications are a matter of personal opinion. I actually have a bit of an academic qualification complex, but we just need to be clear about it."

"OK."

·····

Sun Yunyan: "Get in the car. You've been running all day and it must be tiring. Do you want something to eat in the evening? I won't say anything to you today."

Wenrou waved her hand: "If you say that, I won't dare eat anything too greasy. If I indulge myself for a while, I will suffer later. But I am really hungry. Let's go back and cook some noodles. I'll show you my cooking skills."

Sun Yunyan agreed very much: "Sure, let's go buy some vegetables by the way."

Wenrou: "Okay. I need to buy some. There's no vegetables in the refrigerator."

Sun Yunyan drove the car rented by Wenrou to the supermarket.

"These vegetables and fruits are so expensive. If your family wasn't wealthy and I didn't have a subsidy from work, I think I would become poor sooner or later." Looking at the prices in front of her, Sun Yunyan wanted to cover her wallet.

Fortunately, she now lives in Wenrou's house, otherwise it would be another expensive expense. The company's overseas business trips are difficult to cover. However, since she eats and lives in her own artist's home, Sun Yunyan is not so shameless, so she wants to buy some fruits that Wenrou likes to eat.

"Yes, it's really expensive. I just have to thank my parents. They came to Korea to buy me a house and gave me some money. Now my expenses are still greater than my income, so I can only rely on them."

Sun Yunyan: "There's nothing I can do about it. You're still young. Many people your age are still in their sophomore year. You can earn money on your own, which is already amazing. Besides, your parents' money is for their children, right? Don't think too much. Just tell me what fruit you want to eat. I'll buy it for you today."

“I want to eat both jackfruit and durian.”

"You can only choose one. These two are too high in calories. You want to eat both, so why don't you go to heaven? Then I will buy some apples and peaches. These fruits are low in calories." Sun Yunyan stopped Wenrou's gentle and naive thoughts.

"Okay, then I'll go buy some vegetables and beef or something nearby."

"Okay, let's go."

No matter what time it is, Wenrou likes to go shopping in the supermarket, and she is very happy even if she doesn’t buy anything.

With money in hand, shopping becomes a pleasure.

Every time Wenrou's parents or Wen Chen came to Korea, they would give Wenrou a sum of money. Although her parents gave more and Wen Chen gave less, Wen Chen was unemployed and the money he had was also the various red envelopes he had received over the years. After going to college, Wen Chen started to get in touch with Wen Kangan's industries and the money he had started to increase.

Wenrou didn't want it at first, but Wen Chen regarded himself as an older brother and said that it was nothing to spend money on his sister. He said that Wenrou earned too little in Korea and might only be able to earn money when she became a top star. You know, Wenrou has been quite good at spending money since she was a child. So every time she came to Korea, Wen Chen was not stingy in transferring money to Wenrou.

Wenrou was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. This brother who was only a few minutes younger than her was really considerate. He was no worse than other people's brothers.

She will definitely spend money on her brother in the future and buy him nice jewelry and clothes. Boys should also dress up beautifully, otherwise it would be a waste of his handsome face.

There is no announcement tomorrow, so she decided to buy a car. After all, it is inconvenient to rent a car all the time.

Hmm... Wenrou thought of this and opened her phone to check the money in WeChat and Alipay. It was good, there was still enough money after buying the car.

The last time her parents came to Korea, they gave her a total of one million. Together with the red envelopes she received, the money in her wealth management app and Yu'e Bao is almost two million. The daily interest is nearly 5. Together with the WeChat change and some money in the card, the total is three million. This money is enough to last for a while.

Wait, Wenrou seemed to remember that she needed to decorate a gym and buy some fitness equipment. Buying a car, eh, forget it, otherwise it would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and it would feel like there wasn't much left.

It’s better to continue renting a car. It’s more economical. She can buy a car when she has more income. That’s the decision.

Wenrou roughly calculated some of the future expenses and felt that she should be more restrained. Although she felt that she had some money now, it still didn't feel like it was enough to spend.

In her previous life, she earned quite a lot during the years she worked at a financial company, but the pressure was great, and she had to arrange for social events and so on. She spent almost all of her tens of thousands of dollars in salary, and later she even spent beyond her means. Only after she quit her job at the financial company did she start to be frugal.

The endorsement money I received a few days ago will not arrive until next month. By then, the company’s share and taxes will be paid, and the money I will get will not be much, roughly around 50.

Then, regarding today’s variety show announcement, the income share after tax is negligible, probably less than her one-day interest.

Hey, come on, gentleness.
