Chai Zhiping

She finally found a job as a drama writer's assistant, but found that she was the only employee in the entire company besides the boss. She worked exhaustingly for three months and only got one month's salary, so she fired her boss and started wandering around to help people write short plays and movies. As long as she received the money on time, she had a bright future, and she looked forward to it. A miracle happens.
By chance, she applied for a job as a screenwriter for a television program. Half a year later, while making a program, the producer suddenly got angry for some unknown reason, said "No more recording" and left. Dozens of staff members were all stunned there, not knowing what to do. The host looked around and said to her: "Let's record the next one ourselves!"
The chance is only three seconds, and after three seconds , she picked up the headset microphone that the producer had dropped. At that moment, she said to herself clearly: "If you succeed this time, it will prove that you are not only a dramatist who can only write small scripts, but also a producer who controls the whole show, so you can't make a fool of yourself!"
Slowly, she started working as an executive producer. At that time, it was quite rare for a girl of her age to be a producer.
A few years later, this little girl became an ace producer who won the Golden Bell Award for three years, and then single-handedly produced the extremely popular idol drama "Meteor Garden", known as the "Mother of Taiwan Idol Dramas" "

After the Monopoly got off the plane, he chatted and laughed with everyone. As his hand shook, the mineral water made a slight sound. He didn't throw away the bottle until he got into the car that came to pick him up. There was water in the car, so someone handed him a bottle, but he waved it off and didn't put down the bottle until he drank the last sip of water in the bottle and took the full bottle of mineral water.
