Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

The interviewer suddenly called out "Mr. Li", who had been inconspicuous all this time. The five interviewees immediately perked up, and Zhu Chenchen, who was being questioned, was the most relaxed of the five. After all, Feng Linlin's conversation with Li Shuo was clearly full of compliments.

"During college, I worked part-time as a print model and studied advertising. Last year, I started studying for an MBA at the University of Auckland in New Zealand..."

Zhu Chenchen answered the questions clearly while looking directly at Li Shuo. His first impression was not very good because Li Shuo had been exhausted last night and was in a daze today. He seemed to be lacking energy and looked like he had been working overtime all day.

Should it be the director in charge of a certain department? Among these interviewers, Lu Tingyu is the president of Shuoguo Culture, and her opinion should be more important. With this thought in mind, Zhu Chenchen retracted his gaze and focused on observing Lu Tingyu who was sitting in the middle.

At this time, Li Shuo paused while flipping through Zhu Chenchen's resume and asked, "Did you open a Taobao store during college? What was it called? How is the business?"

"Well, it's a women's clothing store that I opened with a friend. It's called Madam Qian... I'm the store manager and a model. I also work part-time as a customer service representative. Business is pretty good, and it ranks high among women's clothing stores..."

Li Shuo's questions were slightly beyond the scope, so Zhu Chenchen's answers were a bit messy, but overall they were becoming more and more fluent.

Seeing this, Li Shuo smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. You are interviewing for Shuoguo Culture's 'Potential Artist Project'. The project is funded by the company and provides corresponding training resources for those who pass the interview. It is a pure future development project, so I ask a few more questions, do you mind?"

In fact, he saw the name of the Taobao store "Mrs. Qian" and felt it was familiar. In addition, Zhu Chenchen was outstanding in appearance, so he suspected that she was a future celebrity, but he couldn't remember who she was for a while, so he wanted to ask a few more questions.

"Of course not, and I'm happy to answer your question." Zhu Chenchen responded quickly.

"Well, since you are still studying at the University of Auckland, why did you come to us for an interview?"

"I have completed my studies and Hangzhou is my hometown, so naturally I have to come back to look for opportunities. And as you said, Shuoguo Culture's potential artist project is a project that your company has specially promoted in the form of subsidies to cultivate new talents. In my opinion, this is a good opportunity."

Li Shuo nodded, and then revealed his true intentions: "So, did you bring your previous works? Can I take a look?"

Many internet celebrities are completely different people online and offline. You can only know who they are after seeing their online pictures.

This is not because Li Shuo is attracted by her beauty. Nowadays, he only feels like "meeting an idol" when it comes to people of Yang Xiaomi's level. He is used to seeing all kinds of internet celebrities. He just needs to know who this internet celebrity is based on business needs, so he will naturally know how to sign her and how to make money from her in the future...

But when Zhu Chenchen sent N photos of models from his mobile phone and placed them in front of Li Shuo, he still couldn't find any ideas.

In this case, Li Shuo did not dwell on it. He just said "thank you for your cooperation" and that was it.

The interview continued. Zhu Chenchen thought that with Li Shuo's questioning, he would be accepted on the spot, but he didn't say anything and just left with the others...

However, the other people who were interviewed praised Zhu Chenchen one after another:

"You have a solid resume, and the interviewer asked so many questions, so there must be no problem!"

The group that came out earlier asked what was going on, and after getting the answer, they couldn't help but say in surprise:

"Beauty, you are good. The male interviewer was taking a nap before we entered the room and never asked anyone else a question..."

Zhu Chenchen was still feeling a little dazed when he heard this. At this moment, the door of the interview room opened, and an interview assistant walked out and waved to someone who was interviewing with Zhu Chenchen: "Chen Qing? Come with me."

Chen Qing was stunned and pointed at himself: "Me? What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

The interview assistant smiled and said, "What else can it be? Congratulations, you passed the interview!"

"what?"

While Chen Qing was surprised, he glanced at Zhu Chenchen involuntarily, as if to say: Look at you, you went to a prestigious university and have a rich resume, so what? You still failed?

At that moment, Zhu Chenchen clenched his teeth in anger, and felt like his inner emotions were about to explode!

……

"Shuo Ge'er, you have a private interview this afternoon. Do you want to take a break first?"

After interviewing a group of people, Feng Linlin talked to Li Shuo about today's schedule: "This time I have a private interview with the manager of a luxury store recommended by Miss Jin Zhien. Her name is Qian Yifan, a local of Hangzhou. Her family is well-off. She also likes Patek Philippe. She was a former client of Miss Jin. Later, she wanted to get the authorization of the local Patek Philippe counter in Hangzhou, but gave up halfway because the agency fee was too high..."

After listening to the introduction, Li Shuo stood up and said to the others, "Okay, everyone, please take a moment to interview the rest of the people. I'll be leaving first."

All the executives stood up, and Lu Tingyu asked, "Boss, what arrangements do you have for Zhu Chenchen? Do you want to recruit him into the secretarial office?"

The secretariat is the power center of the Shuoguo Group, and getting in would be like rising to the top. However, this kind of thing often depends on Li Shuo's interest.

Li Shuo stopped walking. Because of what happened last night, he was in a state of "holy as Buddha". So even though Zhu Chenchen was very beautiful, he was not very interested in her. So after thinking for a while, he said, "Well, isn't she going to participate in the potential artist project? Let's put her in Shuoguo Culture for the time being and observe her first."

"Well, OK, I'll talk to her in a couple of days."

Li Shuo nodded, turned around and walked out of the interview room. As soon as he walked out, he saw Zhu Chenchen walking towards him: "Hello, Mr. Li, right?"

"It's me." Li Shuo stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I would like to ask, have the interview results come out?"

"It's not out yet, just wait for notification."

After hearing Li Shuo's answer, Zhu Chenchen got a little anxious and turned to stand in front of him: "No, I saw that the people in the same batch have been pulled over to sign the contract!"

"Ms. Zhu has a very good resume, but what you applied for is not a job, but a project funded by the company, so the time for the results to come out may be different from others."

Li Shuo perfunctorily replied, but thinking that this woman might be a future internet celebrity, he added, "Why? Miss Zhu really needs to join this project?"

Zhu Chenchen was not convinced and curled his lips and said, "That's not the case. It's just that since I signed up, I naturally want to pass it smoothly! Besides, didn't you ask me a lot of questions during the interview? I thought..."

"Oh"

Li Shuo suddenly realized, then shrugged and said, "I'm sorry, but Miss Zhu may have misunderstood. I'm just a junior interviewer. You can see from my position that I'm at the bottom of the interviewers. So, although I think you're a good fit, my opinion is not important."

There is no other meaning in this statement, it's just that after Li Shuo became rich, he has instinctively learned to keep a low profile.

But to Zhu Chenchen, it sounded like he was teasing her. She immediately raised her brows and said sarcastically before leaving: "Oh! So you are a junior interviewer with no decision-making power. Sorry to bother you!"

Five minutes later, Zhu Chenchen came out of the office building rented by Shuoguo Culture, opened the car door with a "click", and got into an Audi.

There was another girl sitting in the driver's seat. Seeing her like this, she couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Xiao Xueli, what's wrong with you? Why are you smashing my door for no reason?"

Zhu Chenchen rolled his eyes and said unhappily: "Don't mention it, I thought I could get a mouthful of soup this time, but I didn't expect that I wouldn't get any at all!"

The girl was surprised and said, "No way? You didn't pass with your resume? Wait, are the interview results out? Is this company so efficient?"

Zhu Chenchen took a deep breath and told the whole story. Finally, he concluded: "Isn't it infuriating? If you didn't like me, you shouldn't have asked so many questions. It seems like there is hope. In the end, I can only watch the other people in the same group pass the test!"

The girl comforted him, "Oh, don't give up, maybe there is still hope! When you were interviewed, I checked. Shuoguo Culture has more than one position for interviews, most of which are coaches of various types. There are not many people like you who participate in its "potential artist" project... Moreover, its potential artist project is equivalent to paying for the training of the selected people. After completing the training, you can decide whether to sign a contract with Shuoguo Culture. Think about it, this kind of training without any additional conditions must have fierce competition..."

Zhu Chenchen interrupted and said, "What's the competition? If you ask me, this project is just for people with connections. I can tell from the shifty look on that interviewer's face that he's not a good person!"

"Yes, yes, maybe he is playing hard to get and is thinking of taking advantage of our beautiful Xueli!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chenchen raised his chin and said proudly, "Humph, that's right, but it's a pity that I don't like that kind of stuff!"

"Fuck you, I told you you're fat and you're still showing off!"

"Hehe, my baby is still good at comforting people. After hearing what you said, I am not so angry anymore. Maybe it is the right decision not to join a company that relies on nepotism!"

The girl shrugged and sighed, "What a pity, I still have to go in."

Zhu Chenchen then remembered something, slapped himself, and said with a smile: "Look at me, I forgot that you also want to interview for this company..."

"Yeah, I don't know if I can pass!" The girl said this, but her attitude was quite relaxed.

Zhu Chenchen also praised him at the right time: "Don't worry, you are different from me. You have someone to recommend you, and the boss interviewed you individually... By the way, I think I just met Ms. Lu from Shuoguo Culture. She is a very beautiful lady!"

The girl shook her head and said, "No, it seems that you haven't done your homework on this company. 'Shuoguo' is the name of a group company with its headquarters in Lenghai. It is very large. People who know it call it the Shuoguo Group..."

"The entire Shuoguo system has five main companies, and Shuoguo Culture is only one of them, mainly engaged in entertainment and culture. It recently opened a branch in our Hangzhou, so it started to set up an Internet celebrity incubation base and a potential artist project. I also know its strength and that it is new here, so I recommended you to come for an interview and sign up..."

"The company I want to join is Shuoguo Trading. It mainly sells various brands. In the entire Yangtze River Delta region, apart from fruit stores, there are Shuoguo specialty stores. You can imagine its scale..."

Zhu Chenchen had indeed not done his homework, and he couldn't help but smack his lips when he heard this: "No way, the fruit machines in the entire Yangtze River Delta? The minimum price of one of those things is 5000, how big is the scale of this?"

The girl laughed and said, "This is just Shuoguo Trade. The Shuoguo Culture you interviewed for is on par with it. And these large-scale companies combined together are the Shuoguo Group!"

Zhu Chenchen raised his eyebrows: "You mean, Lu Tingyu is not the boss, there is someone above her?"

"Yes, that person..."

At this point, the girl's cell phone suddenly rang. Seeing the caller ID, her expression suddenly became serious. She said "hush" to Zhu Chenchen and then answered the phone: "Hello, Secretary Feng, um, it's me, OK..."

After a few simple responses, Zhu Chenchen waited for her to hang up the phone and asked impatiently, "Is it your boss's secretary who called you? Is the interview about to start? You should go quickly."

"It's from the Shuoguo Group's secretarial office. It's an organization that serves the Shuoguo Group's bosses. It's called the secretarial office, but its actual function is like half of a shareholders' meeting. It's amazing!"

"Ah? Can a secretary control the rights of shareholders?"

"The reason why there are shareholders is that a large-scale company cannot be developed by one person alone. However, Shuoguo Group is an exception. Its equity structure is both simple and complex. The simple point is that the only recognized boss of Shuoguo Group is Li Shuo! Well, Li Shuo is the founder of Shuoguo Group..."

"The complexity lies in that, because it has cross-holdings with many affiliated companies, it is difficult for the outside world to distinguish how many shares Li Shuo actually holds... In fact, people who have no connection with the company don't even know that the boss of Shuoguo Group is Li Shuo. I only knew about it through an introducer..."

"Well, time is tight, so let's stop talking and go to the interview location first."

Zhu Chenchen was aroused by the woman's curiosity and asked, "Interview location? Aren't we going to the company for the interview?"

"In order to show his respect for me, the big boss specially booked a private room in the coffee shop next to the company, saying that we can sit down and chat casually. Come on, let's go and take a look..."

"Why should I go!" Zhu Chenchen actually wanted to go, but she failed in the interview today, so her mood was inevitably affected and she didn't want to move for a while.

The woman got out of the car, pulled Zhu Chenchen out from the back seat, and said with a smile: "Hey, come with me. I'll be nervous meeting such a big boss alone! Besides, I heard that this boss is young and still single. Xueli, you are so good. Maybe if you meet him, he will pursue you. Then I can become the president's wife and best friend!"

"Go away, go away, my conditions are not good at all, your conditions are better!"

"Don't worry, I know myself well. When I stand with you, I am always the green leaf that sets off the red flowers..."

The two women were talking and laughing as they pushed open the glass door of the coffee shop. Then they saw a busty beauty in an OL outfit appear in front of them. She stretched out her hand to the woman and said, "Hello, Miss Qian. I'm Feng Linlin, the head of the secretarial office..."
