Chapter 23 - Interview

Another new day started. I woke up at 5 am.

The party lasted till 1 pm. We had alot of fun. Though some started quarrelling after getting drunk, nothing happened. We don't entangle ourselves with our young emotions back in the days. Everyone is matured. We don't bicker randomly.

I wander how Tang Qian is doing these days? I lost contact after University. It's been about 3 years. She must have done her post doctoral degree long ago.

Hmm why am I getting emotional. I should get out of bed and release some of my emotions. I walked out of bed and started with the same old routine.

I came back home earlier as I got a call from Bro Mo. He told me that the interview was today and 9 people has requested for interview.

I quickly went to the kitchen and prepared some meat. I added some spices and herbs and some wine and gave the 3 lump of meat a nice massage. then I added salt and gave a nice finishing touch. I wrapped the meat meats in aluminium foil and put them into the microwave oven. I set the time for 45 min in low temp.

Then I went to take a bath. I took out some ice from the freezer compartment which I rarely use and tossed them into the bathtub. The water was already cold and if I added 5 litres of ice it will lower the temp by 1 to 2 degrees

When I dipped my body into the cold water which was at 14-15°c , My muscles started to relax. Adding the ice didn't lower the temperature by much. But why should I let the ice sit in the freezer. Getting even a hairs of benifit from useless stuff is the way to go.

I lay down and relaxed my body. It's been strainous these past few days.

After eating and then cleaning up the mess, it was already 9 am. I quickly dressed up and went straight to my Office.

When I reached the office Bro Mo came and said that he was busy and can't help me more then this. I really appreciate his effort. I will not forget him when there is benifit to be made.

I sat down on my chair, and looked over the 9 people waiting for the interview. I read through the CV and called them one by one.

First was a young man ,22 year old, done a technical course in college, have basic knowledge about programming. His name is Gao Lihao.

"Lihao your CV says that you know how to write programs? is that correct?"

"Yes, I can use C++ and Python. I also know a few things about PHP and Swift."

"Well then go write a short program, which defines who you are, on the PC there."

I pointed at the PC on the right side.

I called for another Programing candidate and did the same thing to him by letting him go on the left PC.

There were 4 candidate who seems well versed in economics. I called for a lady who is 24 years old. She was a fresh graduate from University.

"Tang Rui, Tell me about yourself which you haven't written on the CV"

She started saying blah blah blah.

"So why did you come here for the interview?"

"I don't have much experience, So I came here to gain experience."

And the cold hard fact was that she did do well in her exams and scored very low. So she can't go for job hunting in better environment.

And like this the interview continued.

All of them didn't have any choice, other then coming here for job. They won't be hired of placed in any established company. Well I dont need that much of a high standard. I just need them to run some errands for me.

After interviewing all of them, I asked Tang Rui and Shang Wen, who seems to be quite hard working, to stay behind( The rest were not selected.) I don't know what they were doing when they were studying to get such low scores.

I told them to sign a contract of employment. The salary was not low considering their ability. The salary was 5k yuan each. It will increase based on the performance. They should come to work before 9 am and leave at 5 pm. No work on Sunday and working on Saturday will be counted as over time. Which will be paid at 1.5 times the normal pay. There will only be rent and transportation reimbursements. No insurance and any of that sort.

Finally it was over. I got myself 2 assistant.

After they left, I thought of what I should do, to grow my office. Should I make some Software and make them take care of it? That sounds much better. I will leave those for latter. My assistant are not yet upto the task. I should polish them up abit before I put them to work.

Then I started searching the internet for herbs which will help me nourish my brain. It's been stuck at 97%. And I also haven't used my 'The Special Automated Learning functions' yet. I should use the systems' given gift more.

"Xiao Li, can you search for any information related to medicine and store them in the memory to be lessened?"

[That's really easy. I will help you with that whenever I can. Please dont go far away from your personal internet network for long time]

The 'far away' is like 5 km right now.

I found plenty of sites which sells herbs. But the price were all over the place. Some were costly while others were cheap. I recorded about 15 places which sells herbs , both online and offline, and were located not far from Chengdu, into my notepad.

I called some of them and made few enquiries. I should give them a visit and look at the quality of the herbs.

I suddenly received a call from Mrs He.

" Hello Mr Wang Li, we just finished tabulating the sales of the antivirus, which you sold to us, for the first month. After calculating, you got 9,755,329 yuan as per the 5% clause of the contract. The CEO also told me to pay all the amount for the 200k yuan per month in advance which is 1 mil after deducting the 200k we paid in the beginning. We will only pay the 5% clause for the next 5 month and our contract will be over."

"That's very nice to hear."

"Our company has also bought the Nortin Company. And our market shares in the market has risen to 78% in the local market and 36 % in the international market. Our turn over next month will rise up yet again. You can expect good news. "

Tut tut tut

So they gave me 200mil while they devoured a 60 bil yuan company? That's quite a well off trade Mr founder. They why you were happy to give me 200mil.
