Chapter 258: At Your Command (Second Update)

An Zhixia nodded calmly, "If we follow the rules, the overseas channel will never be established. Even if it is established, it will lose its original purpose and become a place for fame and fortune.

Besides, the overseas channel is a small place with a limited number of admissions. Some people stay and some leave. This is the cruel reality that should be faced.”

Seeing that she refused to listen, the others could only leave angrily.

Those who stayed behind had worry in their eyes, not knowing how far they could go with this honest boy. Some people couldn't help but start preparing for their own future departure.

An Zhixia looked at the twelve people and said with a smile: "Welcome to join the overseas channel!"

The crowd applauded sparsely.

She raised her eyebrows and continued, "It seems that you don't want to stay? I won't force you. Our overseas channel has just been opened, but we have a high starting point and will definitely not be crushed by other channels. And we will continue to run forever and run it prosperously. Don't you have confidence?"

"Yes," they still responded vaguely.

An Zhixia raised her eyebrows in amusement, "Why, we haven't even started work yet, and you're already afraid? We don't want deserters on the battlefield, and neither do I. Since you're staying, you should show your previous enthusiasm and have a good fight with the foreigners who despise Xia Hua. Don't be discouraged by the false fame and false benefits in front of you. There will be more such things in the future, and you will only be eliminated if you hesitate to move forward.

Today you haven't completed the formal employment procedures, so you still have a chance to leave. I'll give you three minutes to hesitate. If you insist on staying, then show me your courage!"

As she spoke, she raised her wrist and seriously calculated the time.

Everyone was breathing heavily, looking around, pursing their lips and thinking seriously. The overseas channel was nominated by the big leaders to be reopened, and it was said that Director Xiao An was specifically in charge, which meant that Director Xiao An had a big leader behind her. No wonder she didn't take the children of the courtyard in the city center seriously, and was not afraid of the threats from the group that just left.

Since the people who were left behind by An Zhixia were definitely the most intelligent and shining ones among them, they quickly assessed the current situation, and their somewhat panicked hearts suddenly calmed down. They looked at An Zhixia with firm eyes.

"Director Xiao An, I'm staying!"

"Director Xiao An, from now on I will be your soldier, charging into battle and obeying your command!"

"Director Xiao An, let's advance and retreat together. Let's do something big while we are young. Who says that you have to be a soldier to realize the value of defending your country?"

Everyone expressed their opinions.

An Zhixia smiled brightly, and everyone was stunned for a long time. "If the person I like is really good, then we will become colleagues from now on. Before we get off work, I will take you to handle the entry procedures. We will sort it out in the afternoon, and we will officially start work tomorrow!"

As she said this, she led a group of twelve people towards the office building.

First we went to the Human Resources Department, where everyone got the form, filled it out carefully, and attached their photos.

The staff in the office had been warned by their leaders and did not dare to target the new colleagues. They could only stamp their seals according to the procedures, keep one copy on file, and file the other copy with the higher authorities. They took the slips to the Finance Department to register, and then took the slips to the Logistics Department.

Only four of the twelve people lived in the city center, and it wasn't particularly close to home. The station provided single dormitories, so they all planned to apply for one.

The TV station doesn't make much profit, but it can't resist the support of the state, which provides a lot of funding every year. In order to cope with the inspection from above, it even built a staff building and two rows of single dormitories last year, taking the opportunity to make money for itself and its relatives.

Fortunately, the number of employees and leaders in the station is limited, so there are quite a few vacant houses to be allocated to them. In fact, this is one of the important reasons why they are scrambling to get a job at the TV station.

Under An Zhixia's supervision, the logistics department no longer dared to cry poor. In accordance with the employee welfare policy, they provided everyone with complete living supplies.

Everyone happily carried their heavy things in net bags and walked towards the dormitory with their keys.

The single dormitory for employees is a tube-shaped building, a very long two-story building with a washroom on each side of the stairs, and the toilet is in a row of simple low houses next to the building. Each room is only ten square meters, but everyone is very satisfied. After all, no company has the treatment of each new employee having his own room.

An Zhixia wandered into her own yard and checked the progress. The craftsmen had already laid the tiles and wooden floors, which would need to be dried for more than ten days before people could officially move in.

After dinner, she went back to the hotel to take a nap, went out to mail the programs she had written earlier to eight performance groups, and then took a bus home.

When she got home, she heard Mrs. Jiang's voice from afar. She pushed the door open with a slight smile on her lips.

"Hey, grandma's little darling is back? Didn't your brother Mingming pick you up?" Old Lady Jiang looked behind her and muttered, "I don't know what you're busy doing all day. You don't even take such a big thing as recognizing your relatives seriously. You deserve to not be able to find a wife."

An Zhixia smiled and took the old lady's arm. She greeted Grandpa Jiang first, then looked at her brother. Seeing that her brother and sister-in-law looked happy and there was nothing unusual, she finally felt relieved.

"Xiaoguai, please help grandma persuade your brother. Our family has been separated for so long and finally reunited. How can we not live together?"

"Grandma, my brother and sister-in-law have to go to work..."

"Transfer her there. I have nothing to do and I can chat with my grandson's wife in the neighborhood committee," Old Mrs. Jiang arranged happily.

"No, I've already booked my brother and sister-in-law to help me at the station. You can't snatch them from me," An Zhixia said with a smile, turning to her brother and sister-in-law and saying, "Brother and sister-in-law, I have finished interviewing people today. Once all the programs are finalized, you can report, probably around next Monday. You can hand over your work in advance, rest at home, and go around.

Well, you can go find Jing Xiaosheng and sell your job!"

An Zhiqiu and Fang Hongye were both a little excited. Making a program on TV would be broadcast nationwide and overseas, so that must be a very novel feeling. They nodded in agreement.

"You guys should hurry up and do this, then pack up and stay at home for a few days. We'll borrow a car and travel around Kyoto together," Old Mrs. Jiang was even more excited than them. She stood up and pushed them out.

An Zhiqiu and Fang Hongye were at a loss for words. One of them could only go out to do the work while the other one cleaned up the house.

Mrs. Jiang now loves her granddaughter and granddaughter-in-law, and she wishes she could split into two and have one for each of them. "Ye, we don't need to bring anything. At most, we need to pack two sets of clothes. We don't need anything at home."
