Chapter: 2959
After hearing the voice, Xiao Weiwei was taken aback for a moment. She had been a hostess for quite some time and had organized many events, but she had never pretended to be a fan or picked someone up at the airport.
Feeling a bit apologetic, she replied, “I’m sorry, Miss Chen. We haven’t done this kind of work before, and we’re not very experienced at it. To avoid any issues with your event, I recommend finding a professional company that specializes in this.”
Chen Mengmeng grew anxious upon hearing this. Finding a company that specializes in this kind of service? That was nearly impossible. There were no professional companies available, and even if there were, they would need time to prepare resources.
She thought about group leader Xu Dandan. Even if she could find her, it would be unlikely that Dandan could change her schedule to accommodate Chen’s request for the next morning. These group performers were like taxi drivers, constantly busy with their own jobs. If someone had booked them for 9 AM the next day, they wouldn’t be available for any other work at that time.
The idea of changing the schedules of two to three hundred people on short notice was simply unrealistic. That’s why Chen Mengmeng felt that Xiao Weiwei was her only hope in Jinling. Unlike the group leaders, who acted only as middlemen, Xiao Weiwei had her own company. She directly employed hundreds of etiquette ladies, which meant she had complete control over her staff.
In a hurry, Chen Mengmeng pleaded with Mr. Xiao, “I really have no other option right now, so I need your help. It doesn’t matter if you’ve done this type of work before. It’s quite simple. Just coordinate everything well. When the time comes, have them show up at the right place and time, and then shout our chosen slogan.”
After listening, Xiao Weiwei was still hesitant to take on this unusual task. Under her leadership, Shangmei Etiquette Company was thriving. Everything was running smoothly, and the profits were good. She didn’t want to get involved in something so strange.
Feeling sorry, she replied, “I’m really sorry, Miss Chen, but this job doesn’t fit our company’s focus. To be honest, I’m not interested. Please forgive me.”
Zhong Tianyu, who was nearby, got angry and shouted at Chen Mengmeng, “What does a company focused on etiquette have to do with this? Tell her! We need 300 people, and I’ll pay 300,000 yuan. That’s 1,000 yuan each! She would be crazy to refuse such a good offer!”
Chen Mengmeng had to keep messaging Xiao Weiwei, “Mr. Xiao, what do you think? We need 300 courtesy ladies to act like fans at the airport for about half an hour. If you agree, we can pay you 300,000 yuan!”
Three hundred thousand yuan was indeed a lot of money. Normally, an extra actor might earn between 150 and 200 yuan for a day’s work. A courtesy lady would earn a bit more, usually between 500 and 1,000 yuan for the day. So, the offer was tempting.
Xiao Weiwei thought about it carefully. She knew that making a guest car model at the auto show could earn her more than 1,000 yuan a day. But she had never done anything like that before and was worried it might lead to problems.
So, she decided to say no. She replied to Miss Chen, “I’m really sorry, but we can’t take this on.”
