Chen Zhu didn't know yet that Song Shiwei was going to give him Ping'an Guo. His next two classes were "Microeconomics" by Shao Hong, the same professor who gave Chen Zhu permission not to take classes.

Although Chen Zhu had this right before, he still went to the classroom on time and was in a hurry to meet the new employees today, so he asked for leave.

Professor Shao heard Chen Zhu's request for leave. While sorting out the PPT for class, he said nonchalantly: "I have already given special approval. You don't need to tell me next time you ask for leave. How many new employees will join your company this time?"

"

"6."

Chen Zhu replied.

"In total, there are probably about ten people."

Shao Hong nodded and said encouragingly: "I hope that by the time you finish your undergraduate course, the company will have more than 200 employees."

This is a beautiful expectation. A company that can support 200 people must have assets in the tens of millions.

"Thank you Professor Shao for your affirmation."

Chen Zhu smiled and replied gently: "Even if we can only support 20 people in the end, I think it will be great."

Professor Shao Hong was quite surprised. It stands to reason that college students like Chen who started their own business while still in school would have high aspirations. They all envisioned starting a business in one year and going public in two years, but they had no expectation of market risks.

If you encounter a slight setback, due to insufficient preparation, it is easy to lose all your efforts and capsize.

Chen Zhu's mentality is relatively rare, but this is a good thing. It shows that Chen Zhu has not "floated" so far and is still on a stable entrepreneurial road.

…

After Chen Zhu took leave and came to the Science and Technology Valley, he saw several strangers in the office from a distance.

They had been arranged to sit at their workstations, and Zhang Guangfeng was running around greeting them and introducing some things in the company.

Today is Monday, and Senior Sister Fang Qing and the others all have classes they cannot escape, so only Zhang Guangfeng, Xia Huilan and Lao Zeng are in the office.

The classes on Monday morning are relatively important, and marginal professors like Zeng Kun cannot be scheduled. Of course, Old Zeng doesn't mind now. His current focus is entirely on retroactive technology.

Not only are you respected by everyone here, but the office environment is much more comfortable.

Zhang Guangfeng saw Chen Zhu coming over and quickly said to the six new employees: "The person who came out to talk to you just now is Professor Zeng Kun, the general manager. This is Mr. Chen Zhu, the founder of our company."

Because Chen Zhu had negotiated the TV commercials alone, Zhang Guangfeng now admired this young boss very much, not as a superficial flatterer within the system, but with a bit of admiration from the bottom of his heart.

The six "newcomers" all stood up to say hello, and cousin Mao Xintong was also inside.

She obeyed her previous instructions and pretended that she didn't know Chen Zhu.

The two people had different surnames, and because Mao Xintong was a little chubby in appearance, they couldn't see any similarities, so no one even noticed that they were related.

"Professor Zeng came out just now to chat for a few words, and then he got busy. I chatted with these new colleagues."

Zhang Guangfeng half-bowed his body and reported with a smile on his face.

Chen Zhu nodded and said he understood. Lao Zeng was a relatively pure technical engineer, so it was a bit embarrassing for him to come out to socialize.

Of course, Zhang Guangfeng is also good and can take the initiative to help greet new colleagues. In fact, this is work beyond his responsibilities.

Mao Xintong was a little surprised. Zhang Guangfeng must be in his twenties. Why is he so respectful to his little cousin?

Is it because my cousin is the founder of the company, or because people are looking after my aunt and uncle?

Second Sister Mao was a little unsure and murmured silently: "Wouldn't it be a bit embarrassing to talk down to someone ten years younger?"

"Hello everyone, my name is Chen Zhu. I believe you have heard of the company and my name before coming here..."

Chen Zhu first delivered a speech.

The six "newcomers" all listened carefully. They were like students who had just transferred to a new school, listening carefully to the class teacher's instructions.

You shouldn't have felt this way at first, because Chen Zhu looked too young, but Zhang Guangfeng, who was so imposing just now, looked so obedient that everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and listen.

In fact, Chen Zhu had never met the other five people before. After he finished speaking, he also asked the new employees to briefly introduce themselves.

A lady in her thirties, quiet and a little serious, who must have been the oldest, spoke first:

"My name is Yao Lan. I have been a substitute teacher for more than ten years but I can't get a full-time job. I earn a monthly salary of 1,500 yuan. My children are sick and I don't dare to go to a big hospital. Sister Mao said that I have a job with a pretty good income, so I

I just came here and wanted to try it out.”

Next is a man named "Xiang Qing". He is about 25 or 26 years old. It seems that he was discharged from the army and changed jobs and first drove for a leader. Later, it is said that he accidentally angered the leader's wife, so he was directly assigned to work as a security guard at the unit.

I don’t know how I got noticed by Lao Chen, so I recommended him.

Although Chen Zhu is not particularly interested in these past events, what is interesting is that except for his cousin, everyone else is basically within the system or "peripheral" within the system.

There are substitute teachers who are unable to join the staff, and former leadership drivers, as well as "Lu Fan, Feng Zhuolin, and Huo Lingqiao". These three are all laid-off employees of state-owned enterprises, two men and one woman, both in their twenties.

About six years old.

Strictly speaking, Mao Xintong is considered a state-owned enterprise. Because the local department store is controlled by the government, it closed down so quickly.

This is the result of asking parents for recommendations. The nature of their work probably limits the circle of people they know.

Chen Zhu knew their names and approximate identities, and chatted for a few more words. If there were no accidents, this should be the last batch of customer service personnel whose names Chen Zhu knew.

Later, as the company expands in size and becomes famous, social recruitment will definitely be carried out. By then, Chen Zhu will probably not recognize this level of employees.

Therefore, almost all people whose names can be remembered now can be collectively called "seniors".

Of course, there are differences between elders and elders. After a while, Chen Zhu came to Zeng Kun's office. Old Zeng had made tea. He first handed Chen Zhu a cup, and then comfortably filled it for himself.

Watching the steaming tea, silk threads floating in the air, and the fragrance filling the nostrils.

Chen Zhu smiled, Lao Zeng's life was really good now.

But he deserves all of this. Without Professor Zeng, not only the framework of the Learning Network cannot be built, but many technical problems cannot be solved.

And when it is time to attract talents to join the company later, Lao Zeng’s presence will be a resounding piece of gold.

Chen Zhu took two sips of tea and said, "Professor Zeng, I want to discuss something with you."

"you say."

Zeng Kun put down his teacup and straightened his back to listen.

"I plan to set up a customer service training department and let Zhang Guangfeng be the director."

Chen Zhu said: "In the future, these new employees will be given unified speech training."

Zeng Kun was stunned for a moment. He thought it was something very important and said in a daze: "Then let him do it. Xiao Zhang has a good work attitude and ability."

"Teacher Xia's side..."

When Chen Zhu mentioned Xia Huilan, no matter how stupid Lao Zeng was about human feelings, he still understood what was going on.

"Hahaha, you don't have to worry about her objections."

Professor Zeng smiled and waved his hand: "She came here purely to earn some money to support her family. She didn't even think about becoming a leader. I think the head of the training department is Guang Feng."

Chen Zhu then called Zhang Guangfeng to the office, his expression a little serious.

Zhang Guangfeng was a little nervous at first, thinking that he had made a mistake, and the big boss had such an expression.

But when I heard Chen Zhu say: "Professor Zeng and I discussed it and planned to set up a customer service training department..."

Zhang Guangfeng immediately understood that the leader was going to put a burden on him, and he couldn't help but get excited.

But there was also a trace of confusion in my mind, why the way the big boss talked and looked when he promoted his subordinates was so similar to his former director of the Urban Management Bureau.

Sure enough, I heard Chen Zhu say next: "Professor Zeng proposed that you be the director of this training department."

"Thank you boss, thank you Mr. Zeng."

Zhang Guangfeng immediately stood up to thank him and stated that he would provide relevant training for new employees.

Although Chen Zhu gave all the credit to Professor Zeng Kun, Zhang Guangfeng knew in his heart that if the big boss didn't nod, would this resolution be passed?

Professor Zeng actually lamented that he had discussed it with himself before the promotion. With such a boss, he had money and dignity. No wonder he always had the urge to work hard to repay this appreciation.

After Chen Zhu announced the personnel appointment, he took the new employees to the canteen of Science and Technology Valley to have a meal together. He also observed everyone's personalities to facilitate future recruitment.

With Chen Zhu’s current accumulation and experience, any subordinate can use it properly.

Those who are virtuous and talented like Song Qing should be used in an exceptional manner;

Those who are virtuous but not talented should be cultivated and used;

Those with talent but no morals will be restricted from use.

Even if he is a ruthless gangster like Wang Youqing, Chen Zhu feels that he can subdue the other person for his own use.

…

After eating, Chen Zhu went back to school and left the rest to Zhang Guangfeng.

He is an official fanatic. When a new official takes office, he will try his best to do everything well. What Chen Zhu needs to do is to encourage him and never extinguish this enthusiasm.

Praising this is also a kind of workplace PUA.

Of course, the quality of this batch of new employees is also good. After all, Lao Chen and Queen Mother Mao will not cheat their own sons. I believe they will be able to adapt to customer service work soon.

Thinking of this, Chen Zhu became more and more confident in the CUHK Learning Network and felt that he was ready for everything. He was just waiting for the TV commercial to be broadcast to convert annual memberships on a large scale.

"There seems to be one more thing..."

Chen Zhu suddenly took out his mobile phone and called Huang Baihan. He was worried that this guy would not distribute flyers to save face, so he wanted to supervise him.

As expected, Dahuang said slowly: "Today is Christmas Eve. Everyone has gone out to celebrate Christmas. There is no one in the library or study room."

Chen Zhu thought to himself that if he didn't press you today, he wouldn't be able to make excuses tomorrow.

"Have you figured out how to spend the evening?"

Chen Zhu asked casually.

"Didn't I say I would play games in the dormitory? It's time to take a lunch break. Bye!"

Huang Baihan hung up the phone in a hurry, as if he was afraid that Chen Zhu would ask him to spend Christmas Eve with him, and he didn't know how to refuse.

"I'm so annoyed. How come Chen Zhu only cares about doing business!"

Huang Baihan was not in a good mood to begin with, so Chen Zhu called him at this time and simply blamed all his grievances on him.

He was lying on the bed when he threw his cell phone to the end of the bed angrily.

But just two minutes later, Huang Baihan hurriedly picked up the phone again, because Huang Baihan suddenly remembered that this was not the previous domestic Haier, but the newly purchased Nokia N95.

After holding the new phone and turning it up and down, I finally found that the top shell of the phone had been hit with a small dent.

"Hold!"

Although it was almost invisible from the outside, Huang Baihan became even more depressed. He cursed "Idiot Chen Zhu" in his heart and blew into the pit with his mouth, hoping to restore it to its original state.

After blowing for a while, Dahuang probably realized that this move was childish, so he could only try to forget about the damaged place and reopen his QQ phone in a dull voice.

I took a look at the chat history and found that the messages in the group were being updated lively, but there were no personal messages flashing at all.

Especially the dialog box nicknamed "Miss Yanwu". In the morning, Huang Baihan sent a question to her, "Senior Sister Xu, how did you spend Christmas Eve?", but the other party has not responded yet.

At first, Huang Baihan thought that others were not looking at their phones during class, but after class was over, they still didn’t reply.

"Maybe I'm talking to my classmates."

Huang Baihan comforted himself in this way.

But it was already lunch time, and Huang Baihan thought again, "Maybe I didn't look at my phone while eating." But this reason was simply untenable.

It's not like Huang Baihan has never had dinner with Xu Yue. He knows that she likes to serve food with a spoon while scrolling through her mobile phone.

So Huang Baihan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at all. Even if Xu Yue replied "make an appointment to have dinner with friends" or "go shopping and watch a movie with friends", it would be better for Huang Baihan than what he is now.

Because then he would have given up, and there would be no need for him to be impatient and annoyed by everything he saw because of waiting.

I was in a stalemate for more than half an hour, not wanting to do anything and not being able to sleep. Soon my roommates all got up and got ready to go to class.

Huang Baihan finally couldn't hold it back and opened the dialog box with "Ms. Yan Wu" again, and edited a text saying "Senior Sister Xu, have you seen the message?", but he hesitated and did not send it.

He was thinking, would sending it like this make the other party angry or disgusted?

But then I thought about it, this was not my initiative, but the QQ status you posted before...

Huang Baihan opened the QQ space of "Miss Yan Wu", and the top status was astonishingly:

Christmas Eve is coming soon, why don’t you ask me out yet?

The accompanying picture shows Xu Yue taking a photo with a Santa Claus model. She is wearing a knee-length pink skirt and has a kind smile on her face.

Although she is not tall, her body proportions are very good, and maybe because of the short skirt, her face has a shy expression of wanting to resist but welcome, just like the expression of a good student being tricked into a small hotel by his yellow-haired brother.

This status attracted many comments, such as:

Charming Prince: Old classmate, you are getting more and more beautiful. Are you waiting for me?

Miss Yan Wu: (smiling expression) What do you think?

…

丿Fengchen丨灬男子: Is it still too late to drive to Huagong?

Miss Yan Wu: Mr. Liu, please stop joking! (angry expression)

…

ご雨梦Chi歌╮: I learned a new song. Can I tell you about it on Christmas Eve?

Miss Yan Wu: Thank you (with a cute expression).

…

Handsome Knight: Do you want to spend the night together tonight?

(This message was deleted instantly)

…

Huang Baihan read every message carefully and found that Xu Yue had not agreed to anyone. Although she responded like she was flirting with other boys, Huang Baihan felt uncomfortable.

But he also knew that he had no restricted status. Fortunately, Xu Yue only replied "politely" and did not talk to anyone more.

Huang Baihan looked at Xu Yue's QQ status again, but still no one could really date her, so he gradually became bolder in his heart.

That edited message, I finally gritted my teeth, closed my eyes, and clicked the send button.

December 24, 2007 10:33

Huang Baihan: Senior Sister Xu, how do you spend Christmas Eve?

December 24, 2007 13:54

Huang Baihan: Senior Sister Xu, have you seen the message?

In the dialog box, the two messages about the same person seem a bit lonely.

Huang Baihan didn't dare to wait any longer after sending the message. He just put his phone in his pocket and followed his roommate to the classroom.

Along the way, his mood was pounding like crazy, and he couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, as if he was walking too fast and couldn't breathe.

He decided to wait until the classroom before taking out his phone, hoping that there would be a surprise.

What Huang Baihan didn't know was that as soon as he sent this message, Xu Yue actually saw it.
