Sheng Mingzhi learnt a trick from Lu Jiayan.

Next time Little Wang puts him on a variety show, if he asks for a childhood photo, he'll throw in an ultrasound too.

Unlike Zero.

Sheng Mingzhi's birthday came at seven o'clock in the morning.

The team arrived home around 8.30am, before Sheng Mingzhi had even woken up and Lu Jiayan had dug him out from under the covers to wash up.

Instead, the phones had started buzzing and vibrating, and those rich kids who usually knew each other but didn't, some of whom hadn't even said a word to each other, were sending birthday wishes on WeChat.

A row of gifts from luxury brands have been sent to Villa XiShan in accordance with the procedures.

By 10 o'clock, Sheng Mingzhi's look was finished.

Every year his birthday is like a big social event.

From the opening of the eyes to the closing of the eyes, the whole day lasts.

It doesn't stop for a moment.

This year was no exception.

Sheng Xue's health improved a little and he returned home the day before his birthday.

The last time the two siblings saw each other was on Old Lu's 80th birthday.

When he met Sheng Mingzhi, Sheng Xue had accumulated a bucketful of gossip and grievances and dragged him around for an hour or two.

During the day we spent time at the Sheng family, and in the evening we went to the Prce yacht.

As night falls, the yachts are illuminated and sail slowly out of the harbour, ending with a spectacular fireworks display.

For a whole day, the extravagance of YunJing's upper class, the paper and the gold, was evident.

Sheng Mingzhi is so tired that his bones are falling apart.

When it was close to zero, I picked out a few photos and tweeted them perfunctorily.

The number one trending topic on Weibo is #SongYi's birthday.

Seeing this name again, Sheng Mingzhi's mood was very calm, if not unsettling.

He used to hate Song Yi, but not because Lu Jiayan's attitude towards him was so hot and cold that he had little confidence.

It wasn't until the last time he beat Song Yi up and learned from Lu Jiayan about his attitude that Sheng Mingzhi suddenly straightened up and became fearless.

Besides, it's not like he's some kind of inner-entertainment fuck-up king.

As long as Song Yi doesn't mess with him, he doesn't want to lower himself to his knees.

After a while of searching, there were a bunch of celebrities who wished Song Yi a happy birthday.

Unlike Sheng Mingzhi, an 18th-tier inner-city orphan, Song Yi's connections are clearly much better than his.

Cutting back to his Twitter feed, the only people who are persistent with him are the anti-fans.

"Two birthday blogs a day, cheating on well wishes?"

"How come you have the same birthday as Song Yi, look at them and look at you."

"The #Sheng Mingzhi Inner Entertainment Orphan lives up to its name."

"Where are your birthday benefits? Don't try to muddle through."

"How much did it cost to rent the yacht, tell me straight away, I'll see when you're broke."

......

He didn't even bother to dislike it.

Sheng Xue chose two photos, took him by the arm and asked him which one looked better.

One is a photo of her at a Parisian celebrity gala a few days ago, and one is with Sheng Mingzhi.

In the photo, Sheng Mingzhi and she are still clearly visible as twins.

The beautiful fox eyes are the same, Sheng Xue is more flirtatious and innocent, while Sheng Mingzhi is more handsome.

Both are okay.

After receiving a positive response, Sheng Xue posted the photo to INS.

But then she thought about her brother's fishy career and asked softly, "Can I send you a picture?"

Sheng Mingzhi gave her a quizzical look, "Why not?"

Sheng Xue was defeated for a moment: "Aren't you and Brother Lu in a secret marriage? Will it affect your career if I expose your identity in this way?"

So simple, so naive.

Sheng Mingzhi The corners of his mouth twitched as the young master felt a rare twinge of guilt, thinking that only his silly white sister in the world would make a career out of this profession.

"No need." Sheng Mingzhi replied.

In the past, he didn't want to go public in the entertainment industry because he wanted to be a good friend to his father, and he wanted to do whatever Sheng Yuan wouldn't let him do.

Secondly, it is still because the business association with Lu Jiayan is so plastic and excessive that he simply does not have the courage to bear the cost of going public.

He is.

Fear that Lu Jiayan thinks he is a nuisance.

But not now.

Ever since Lu Jiayan said he was chasing him, Sheng Mingzhi's unbridled, larger-than-life personality has taken over.

There's even a bit of a desire to test the waters at Lu Jiayan's bottom.

Let's see if he really doesn't mind showbiz or if he doesn't.

Sheng Xue hesitated for a moment and, just to be on the safe side, chose a picture of Sheng Mingzhi with her head down, smiling and intimate as she rests on her brother's shoulder.

Below the photograph is a small line of English text.

-Happy birthday, dearest other me in the world [eoji's face]

Unlike Sheng Mingzhi, who is a high-profile person who dislikes the sky and the earth.

Sheng Xue is a standard celebrity with an extremely low profile but strong presence, living in seclusion and spending a lot of time abroad, with no social media presence in China and basically only posting her life on INS.

Despite this low profile, MingChen's status as the youngest princess of the bank has kept her in the limelight.

Not long after the photo was sent out, it was carried by some rich white girl's daily account on Weibo in China.

Happy birthday to the big girl (cake) from the INS just posted by Princess MingChen

About a dozen comments.

"Happy Birthday~"

"Nima, she is really beautiful and purely natural, can I look like this in my next life (puppy hugging legs and shedding tears)"

"MU, it's only other people's twenties birthday is going to a celebrity ball, my twenties birthday is staying up late writing my dissertation (tears)"

"I haven't seen her update for a while, but who's the guy in her picture?"

"A brother, right? I was under the impression that the little princess had a brother of similar age?"

"Laughing at how the guy with his head down looks a bit like Sheng Mingzhi (sorry for the moon bashing, will delete if inappropriate)"

......

After his twenty-third birthday, Sheng Mingzhi's life was back on track.

The day after his birthday, something came up at the Group's branch in France that required Lu Jiayan's personal attention.

This trip was a week long.

Sheng Mingzhi was bored in China and had to harass Lu Jiayan on WeChat.

It didn't take long for the recording of the second installment of I'm an Intern to be brought up on a daily basis.

After the first episode was aired, with the support of Jia Sheng's father, the marketing campaign swept through the internet like it was nothing but money.

Combined with the explosive editing and genuine content, it bagged the number one rating on the night it was broadcast.

The heat is on, and apart from Yu Jie, who was dropped halfway through the show, several of the guests in the show have more or less reaped the benefits.

Su Yang, who has been a rich kid since he entered the entertainment industry, has been the biggest fan of the show, and the internship has completely sucked in a wave of new fans after the broadcast. In the programme, he wore clothes costing tens of thousands of dollars, wore a watch costing hundreds of thousands of dollars, drove a car costing a million or so dollars, and then hurried to his workstation with a school bag on his back.

Contemporary internet users love nothing more than to play the role of a pig and eat a tiger persona.

Su Yang's team seized on this point and quickly teamed up with the show to set Su Yang up as a low-key mixed-ring rich kid, with a vague hint of a group favourite.

In addition to this, there is also a graduate student in finance at YunJing University who has become a major Internet sensation.

Once the heat is on, the weight of the guests joining the second edition is even greater in comparison.

Among them are Xu Coral, a well-known and popular flower, and a popular idol from a certain talent show.

After the first recording session, Sheng Mingzhi became familiar with the group.

He just always seemed a bit of a highbrow because of his cold and detached personality.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the taping, except for a slight situation before it started.

Just as everyone was getting ready, Su Yang was late, arriving two hours later.

It's better not to ask, but when you do, it means that your brother is popular, with a busy schedule and lots of announcements.

Not even an apology for being late.

At the second taping, Su Yang passed the test and entered the official internship.

He was assigned to the same department as Sheng Mingzhi and Xiao Jia.

Xiao Jia had been waiting for two hours and was already a bit impatient, rolling her eyes and spitting, "What kind of busy schedule is this?

And I don't know if it was just him.

After the morning had passed, he could clearly sense that Su Yang was inexplicably hostile towards Sheng Mingzhi, for example, when talking to everyone, he always deliberately ignored Sheng Mingzhi, the most outrageous time was when he clearly invited everyone to have coffee, but "accidentally" forgot to mention Mr. Sheng. Mr. Sheng.

Once or twice is fine, more times than not everyone notices.

It's not really hard to understand.

It's normal for Su Yang to be hostile towards Sheng Mingzhi, as the two are clearly in conflict with each other's personas.

In the first season, no one noticed Su Yang because she was not in the same group and Yu Jie was more at odds with Sheng Mingzhi.

But in the second season Su Yang and Sheng Mingzhi were brought together and it became clear that the two had inexplicably similar personas.

All are young lords with arrogant personalities.

No one is to be messed with.

Su Yang is not short of money, and Sheng Mingzhi wears expensive clothes for the recording of the show.

The bracelet I saw him wearing this morning was understated and luxurious, and those who knew what they were looking at knew it was a private order from a major brand.

Unfortunately, Su Yang was wearing a similar bracelet this morning.

Su Yang's bracelet is a little less impressive.

Can he not be hostile to Sheng Mingzhi.

So Xiao Jia had a hunch from the start that Sheng Mingzhi might have a fight with Su Yang.

But I didn't expect the conflict to erupt so quickly.

In the afternoon, Su Yang wanted to go out for dinner but didn't finish her work, so she threw it to Sheng Mingzhi and asked him to help her sort it out before she left.

It's really just a passing thing to pack a few files.

Su Yang was the group's favourite in the show. She was used to relying on her seniors before, and now that she has become popular, she doesn't take the others seriously.

Born into a wealthy family, he was used to being waited on, and he didn't speak very politely to an eighteenth-string grouch like Sheng Mingzhi.

But as we all know, the world has not yet seen the birth of anyone who would dare to teach Sheng Mingzhi, the little ancestor, to do anything.

So halfway through dinner, the group leader was called back in a frenzy.

Su Yang realised that Sheng Mingzhi hadn't helped him at all and had left before the job was done, let alone before it was time to eat.

He was scolded severely.

The team leader was relentless: "I don't care if you're here to record the show, it's your job and you have to finish it, the workplace is a battlefield, not a playground."

The directing team filmed this footage without any reservations.

The young master, Su Yang, who has been spoiled by everyone, is holding back tears, and I feel sorry for him.

So at the evening taping, Su Yang approached Sheng Mingzhi and asked him why he wasn't helping her with the paperwork.

Sheng Mingzhi, puzzled by his question, said frankly, "Why should I help you. I'm your father?"

Su Yang's eyes widened: "Just a little tidying up, it's a passing task, it won't take you much time, if you had done it for me, would I have needed to be scolded so badly?"

"Oh. None of my business." Sheng Mingzhi didn't bother: "It's not like I'm being scolded."

"I find you to be a really selfish person." Su Yang, seeing his nonchalant attitude, raised her voice: "A favour won't kill you!"

"I don't want to help. Is there a problem?" Sheng Mingzhi sneered, "Or how about you don't even take part in the show, and I'll record your footage for you too?"

"You!"

"All right. Don't argue."

Yu Shaoyang came out to round things up, and despite his young age, his character was unexpectedly stable.

The two of them have a good relationship.

Sheng Mingzhi was only noticed yesterday, for no other reason.

This Yu Shaoyang looks quite similar to Lu Jiayan in some ways, especially in the side.

"Jan, let me help you next time."

After persuading Su Yang, Yu Shaoyang spoke to Sheng Mingzhi: "Mr. Sheng, don't be angry either."

Sheng Mingzhi said coldly, "What do I have to be angry about?"

--then came home at night and rolled around in bed in anger.

Super, class, raw and angry!!!

Su Yang, where did this cunt come from!

Shen Ling has long been annoyed with Su Yang, who is a rich kid in the world.

How dare you claim to be a second generation rich man from YunJing, who has never even met Sheng Mingzhi?

Shen Ling is a socialite in YunJing's top celebrity circles, and those who have met her are basically the richest heirs.

Su Yang was a person she had never heard of until she popped up.

Su family to have heard of, the star city side of the mine up a mob, no two drops of ink in the stomach to try to squeeze into the capital circle, after more than a decade of efforts to get on the number.

Not to mention the fact that Su Yang is only the illegitimate son of the Su family.

Bullying comes to Sheng Mingzhi's head.

Cannot be tolerated.

Shen Ling's mouth crackled with gibberish.

[You think you're rich just because you carry a Hermes bag?

[Free to cure the brain to think about what it is in the entertainment circle grass rich second generation persona is not afraid to turn over the car?

[His own father has to kiss my ass when he sees me what kind of a bastard is this?

[Okay baby don't get upset it's not worth it to get upset about stupid people!

......

Not only does he spout off to Shen Ling about Su Yang, a living prince carrier, but he also spouts off to Lu Jiayan.

Sheng Mingzhi uses euphemisms only when dealing with Lu Jiayan.

After posting everything from this afternoon.

Sheng Mingzhi looked at his chat box with Lu Jiayan, which looked like he was writing a one-sided mini-essay, and suddenly felt a bit vain.

etc.

Lu Jiayan doesn't think he's grumpy after all that he's spouted, does he?

Wanted to withdraw.

What's going on.

It's been over two minutes since the message was sent and it can't be withdrawn!

Mr. Sheng, Jr. regretted it.

So while Lu Jiayan was still typing, he made a quick phone call.

The other person picked up his call as if he had just finished work, and there was some weariness in his tone.

In this way, Sheng Mingzhi regretted even more the large paragraph he had sent him.

"What's wrong?"

After a few seconds, Sheng Mingzhi opened his mouth, "That is. Those WeChat messages I just sent you, can you pretend that you didn't see them."

Lu Jiayan raised an eyebrow: "But I've already finished reading it, what should I do?"

Sheng Mingzhi: "......"

Talking to Sheng Mingzhi is probably the only way to relax after a long day of work in France.

Lu Jiayan leans back in his chair, his posture lazy.

"Can't I see it?"

"Not really." Sheng Mingzhi opened, still a little worried: "Will you think I'm particularly bad-tempered after reading it?"

Lu Jiayan thought to himself, "Is it just a day or two that you have a bad temper?

Already well known second only to the newswire.

But to be honest, he found it quite cute to watch Sheng Mingzhi struggle.

Lu Jiayan gave a hearty laugh, "No."

Sheng Mingzhi is a relief.

"After all." Lu Jiayan spoke again, "I'm the one courting little Mr. Sheng, and I come with a filter."

Sheng Mingzhi suddenly remembered something and sat upright and righteous: "Then will you think I'm as vain as he is?"

It didn't feel like it before.

In the last few days, Su Yang has been throwing up in her face with her cheap displays of wealth.

It led to a bit of self-doubt on Sheng Mingzhi's part.

He couldn't have always looked this low to Lu Jiayan, could he?

If the dog man says "yes" he's dead!

Halfway through the day, Lu Jiayan said, "No."

Sheng Mingzhi is still not convinced.

Lu Jiayan added: "I don't like vain people, but little Mr. Sheng is fine if he's vain."

Sheng Mingzhi :"."

Then you still think I'm vain!!!

"Don't like showbiz, but it's OK if you go."

"Don't like bad tempers, but it's okay if you're bad."

Gradually, Sheng Mingzhi became silent.

He was horribly hot in the face.

Did this dog man go somewhere and suddenly cultivate some kind of speaking charm.

How can you suddenly become so flirtatious!

Sheng Mingzhi listens in silence.

As a result Lu Jiayan is suddenly silent.

He:?

The other side seemed to have guessed his mind across the ocean.

The tone was smiling and bitchy: "Still want to hear it?"

Sheng Mingzhi: "......"

Lu Jiayan's voice is slow: "You can't be too greedy."

"The phone was hung up by Sheng Mingzhi with a beep.

-

At this point, the trailer for The Internship was also posted online, and it did include a clip of Su Yang being scolded for crying.

Su Yang was a group favourite in the last issue, and has sucked in a bunch of mum fans.

At the moment, fans are instantly heartbroken to see him being scolded.

Little by little, the topic is climbing in popularity.

There are many people who feel for their brother, but of course there are also people who speak.

"So curious as to why he was scolded."

"Looking at the previews it seems like the job didn't get done, but I'm quite annoyed that he seems to have some kind of major illness with his workplace stand-up groupie persona."

"I have a friend who works on the show, and it seems to be related to Sheng Mingzhi?"

"A bit of a network."

"Pinch mum, Hades thought it was something to do with him! And sure enough."

"Found the person who cried at Su Yang, @ShengMingzhi, Su Yang fans come and take revenge!"

......

This small part of the discussion didn't make much of a splash.

The real trigger that set things off was the next morning.

Su Yang was suddenly informed by his supervisor that he now needed to go to the administration department because of a job transfer.

It's not that the administration is bad either.

It's just that the administration department is mainly responsible for computers and asset management than marketing, and the upside has plummeted by a large margin, and there is a lack of high points in the programme.

Su Yang has been a big hit for a long time and wants to continue to be a big hit in the second season, how can she do that?

Immediately, he couldn't understand why he had a job transfer and asked the programme team, who couldn't ask why.

Although The Internship is a scripted show, it is the Sheng Jia side of the show that decides what the guests do. But to better reflect the real workplace, it is the Sheng Jia aspect that determines the guests' work more than anything else.

Sheng Jia is also the biggest investment sponsor of The Internship, so it's basically the company's call.

At the end of the day, Su Yang's answer was that he wasn't very good at marketing.

There are plenty of guests who don't fit into this department, so how come his CV suddenly doesn't work?

And it was only after he had been there for a few days that he was informed.

Sheng Mingzhi was also a little surprised to see Su Yang sulking and tidying up her workstation at the taping the next day.

At the same time, a hint of suspicion surfaced in his mind, only last night he talked to Lu Jiayan about it, and today Su Yang packed up and got out of his world ......

It can't be that coincidental, can it?

Lu Jiayan doesn't seem like the kind of person who would take personal revenge.

Sheng Mingzhi was a little unconvinced, but happy to think that Lu Jiayan had broken his principles for him.

I thought it was over, but in the afternoon, Su Yang couldn't hold her temper.

A complaint was posted on Twitter, smelling like an aggrieved little wretch.

@ Su Yang: I've always really liked interns, but I never thought I would encounter such unfairness, I'm really disappointed.

A second later, he came back to his senses and also realised he shouldn't have posted it, so he deleted the tweet.

But even if the action was fast, it was screenshotted by someone with an eye on the situation.

Certain marketing agencies have already seen fit to post screenshots of

"Another incident with the intern crew? It feels like there's another big melon to eat, huh?"

Although there is no water army or marketing numbers linked to the show, though one episode of The Internship that aired has already had some traffic.

Many people have swiped to the front page of this melon.

By the time Qiao Yan saw it, someone at DouBan had already started a thread discussing whether Su Yang had offended someone on the show.

He has been quiet for six months since he wore a fake and cheated on his boyfriend with little movement.

It would be a lie to say that you don't hate Sheng Mingzhi.

The reason for his rapid decline in popularity has to do with Sheng Mingzhi, and even after all this time, he can't help but keep an eye on his opponent's movements.

Qiao Yan, who has more contacts than her online friends and is, after all, in the community, soon found out the reason for Su Yang's accident, which was, as expected, related to Sheng Mingzhi.

Before Su Yang, there was Yu Jie, and it seems that no one who goes against Sheng Mingzhi ends up in a bad way.

Think of the night when Sheng Mingzhi and Sheng Jia attended the red carpet at the same time.

Qiao Yan gripped the phone tightly and clenched her back teeth.

Sheng Mingzhi's luck was good, for he was able to climb the ladder of Lu Jiayan.

After all, it's Lu Jiayan, and even just being a lover is enough for Sheng Mingzhi to walk around in the entertainment industry.

The more I think about it, the more jealous I get.

He skimmed through the post in a single glance and couldn't resist anonymously replying in the latest comment.

"With Yu Jie as a precedent, there's no need to guess who Su Yang has offended. I suggest that Su Yang and Yu Jie's fans should find out what Sheng Mingzhi has gotten himself into, otherwise you won't be able to figure out how your brother will die next."
