The other guests couldn't hype the show up. After all, everyone was here for the Luke couple. The two nodded and went to their workplace without hesitating.
The director saw them off and sighed. Then, he turned to the camera and grumbled, "Life is hard."
'You did this to yourself.'
'You almost got yourself sacked for the ratings. Press F to pay respects.'
The viewers were laughing, but they didn't mean it.
The Luke couple had arrived at their workplace. They set up a stand and changed into bright work uniforms. The words 'screen protector installation' were emblazoned on their uniforms.
Nobody would spare a look at them. They seemed like regular service workers selling their services under the bridge. A gust of wind blew by, and it made them seem all the more pitiful.
'If this wasn't a live stream, the editing team is gonna pour in some sad music right about now.'
'On the world's smallest violin. Can't believe they still look imposing in those clothes, though.'
'I can't believe those people won't even give them a second look. I wanna be at the scene.'
They were in front of the bridge of the tourist spot. The tourists would have to pass them by if they wanted to get to the entrance. This was the perfect spot to set up a stand, but not even a single tourist spared them a second look.
Vania felt defeated. "Why won't they even look at us? I think we look hot."
The business was as dead as ever. The only companion the couple had was the wind. After all, the tourists only cared about sightseeing, and nobody would waste their time on these hustlers.
Vania looked around her. This can't go on. The tourists are here to sightsee, not shopping. "Our products don't stand out. How can we attract customers?" She quickly pointed out their dilemma. She needed to find a way to deal with this, or they would never clear the mission.
"So, what do you have in mind?" Hanson asked. He had to rely on her for this. Screen protector installation was something he only knew after joining this show. His underlings would do all the maintenance for his phone, and he had no idea how screen protectors worked. His wife would have to do the heavy lifting for now.
Vania mused on it. "If they employ our services, I'll let them take a selfie with you." That'll attract a lot of customers. We can finish the mission easy-peasy.
Hanson refused, "No. I only take selfies with you." He never liked any other women coming into close contact with him, much less taking a photo with them. That would never happen.
She smiled sheepishly. "Fine, how about your autograph for every customer, then?"
He cocked his eyebrow. "Are you sure?"
He would never sign anything other than multimillion-dollar contracts, nor would he give his autograph away for free. Businessmen valued their signatures.
Vania knew why he refused. She rested her chin on the back of her hand and wondered aloud, "How can we attract customers, then?"
The viewers started giving ideas.
