Chapter 28: Exclusive Secrets
Arabella left with great disappointment.
When she was in the corridor, her colleagues greeted her, but she was in no mood to pay attention to it, only with a cold expression.
"What's wrong with her today?"
"Probably in a bad mood? I just saw him come out of the manager's office. β
"It's weird, she's usually very welcoming."
Arabella ignored no one, even the morning's work, and went straight home.
It's a low-cost housing community.
With a messy staircase, dusty hallways, and an old door attached to it, Arabella was dressed in a flamboyant way that was out of tune with her surroundings.
Housing prices in the South End of London are expensive, and even the rent charges for low-cost rental houses built by the government are scratching heads.
In such a dilapidated low-rent house, a standard single room has 30 to 40 square meters, and the monthly rent is about 400 to 600 pounds.
Arabella took out the key, opened a door, pushed it in, and the room was neatly tied, the walls were covered with wallpaper to cover the broken walls, but there was always a musty smell in the air.
That's the smell of old housing.
Arabella is used to it, she has lived here for more than ten years.
When she entered her room, Arabella lost her cold look, and became hopeless, helpless, and miserable, and tears could not help but drip from her eyes.
She was half-leaning against the wall, squatting and hugging her head and crying.
Over the years, she has lived a very strong life on her own, from the beginning of the bar dancer, all the way to the BBC TV employees, she can sacrifice her body for money, she can sacrifice her body for work, and she can sacrifice her body for purpose, but she doesn't care at all, maybe no woman doesn't care.
She did it for a simple reason: her body was her only bargaining chip!
She didn't finish middle school.
That painful childhood experience, she didn't want to think back, when she was young, she lived alone on government relief, during which there were desires, hurts, and sinking, and when she grew up, she could only learn to please men in order to live.
Now she's finally out.
She became a BBC TV employee, had a very stable job, and had her own show, and she thought she could be like or even better than everyone else.
Now she finds out how naΓ―ve she was!
and Denise, it is a normal competition, she is indeed much stronger than herself in terms of hosting ability; She came up with some intrigues and tricks, and even did not hesitate to insult the hundan, but in the end it didn't work at all.
In the past, she thought that beauty could get anything; And now she realizes that she has been wrong all along.
Her world collapsed.

in the office.
Carl Rose reclined in his chair, sipping his freshly brewed coffee, a smile on his lips.
That's because of the news provided by Arabella.
Carl Ross had known that Zhang Yang worked for BBC TV for a long time, and he even knew that Zhang Yang and Denise were in the same department, but he didn't dig into it, and he didn't show it, just pretended not to know.
One of the things that Arabella has to offer is very valuable --
Zhang Yang is an intern.
"Intern?"
When he heard what Arabella had to say, Carlros was surprised.
After Arabella left, he finally reacted and felt that there was a lot of room for maneuver: Zhang Yang was just an intern, that is, he was not officially employed, and if he was allowed to work in the broadcasting team, all problems would be solved.
Carl Ross smiled and picked up the phone.
At the same time, Zhang Yang is working hard, Spoh has a heavy task, the final round of the Champions League is about to begin, the sports section of the BBC website needs several Italian sports news, and in one morning, he has to translate three articles.
For others, it was a daunting task, but for Zhang Yang, it was just mechanical typing, and he could do it in an hour.
This is followed by free breaks.
In the last few days, he has been working as a translator for an hour or two a day, and the rest of the time he can do whatever he wants, whether he can log on to Weibo and interact with his followers in a friendly way, or simply download a game and have fun in the office.
But no one blames anything.
Even Spoh acquiesced, because he did a great job.
It's the same today.
After finishing his work, after seeing that the time was only half past nine, Zhang Yang was about to continue yesterday's game, and at this moment, a surprised shout came from behind him, "Zhang! You're the 'flamboyant', right? β
The people in the office all turned around.
It was the voice of a little fat man, his name was Isaiah Aldrich, the name was cool, but unfortunately he only had the appearance of an otaku fat man.
Isaiah was pointing to the screen, "Isn't that right?" Sheet! Your Weibo name is 'Personality Publicity', don't deny it, here's the report! β
The office suddenly became noisy.
The proportion of people who know 'personality publicity' outside is actually not high, but it is different in the sports and foreign media department, the broadcasting team is in the same building, and the 'Voice of the Premier League' program is promoted at the door, and the 'personal publicity' will be heard by many people.
Before, some people planned to form a group to see what 'personality flamboyance' looks like, but Isaiah actually said with certainty that the new Chinese kid is 'flamboyant personality'?
How can it be?
"Isaiah, are you mistaken?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Zhang? Impossible! Zhang is only in his early twenties, how can he have such accurate football analysis...... Moreover, he is just a translator. β
Everyone was enthusiastically discussing.
Some people went to see what Isaiah said, and most people turned their attention to Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang was suddenly embarrassed.
Faced with so many questioning glances, he could only nod with a wry smile, "Yes, but how do you know?" He looked at Isaiah and asked the same question as the others.
"Really?"
"God! No kidding! β
"Zhang! I'm a fan of yours, I didn't expect you to be in the same office as me! β
"It's so hard for you to hide it from me."
Zhang Yang reluctantly betrayed his friend, "Andy also knows." "He pointed at Andy, with a look of 'I didn't know you well so I didn't say it, but Andy was very clear'.
"Oh my God! Andy, you know? You're too bad a friend! β
"Why didn't you say it earlier!"
"I'm sorry for buying you breakfast in the morning!"
After successfully diverting the attention of his colleagues, Zhang Yang walked over to Isaiah's desk and looked at his computer screen, which showed a news item from the official BBC website: "Who is 'Personality'? BBC Official Exclusive Secret! β
The news was accompanied by flamboyant photos.
Zhang Yang's face turned a little dark, and he pointed to the screen and said dissatisfied, "This is too ugly!" Which hun egg offers a photo? In the photo, he is huddled in the crowd of buses, tilted and his face sideways, and the image is not at all.
Many people around burst out laughing.
"I guess it's a candid shot, right? This angle? β
"Zhang, don't worry! You're so much more handsome than you look in the photos! β
"You're just not on camera!"
ββ¦β¦β
Zhang Yang reluctantly accepted the reality, and when he dealt with a group of enthusiastic colleagues, he returned to his desk and searched for relevant reports on the computer.
