Chapter 14 Please tell Chen Ci, it's good that you're sick...
Zhou Shilin's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable sense of oppression. Gao Yang was still kneeling on the ground, clutching his stomach, but compared to Shen Feifei's kick, Zhou Shilin's words were clearly more lethal to him.
"No, Mr. Zhou, please don't believe this woman!" Gao Yang struggled to his feet and pointed at Shen Feifei, accusing her of hitting him first. "She hit me first! Lots of people at the hospital saw it that day! If you don't believe me, you can have someone ask her!"
Hearing his strong voice, Shen Feifei began to reflect on whether she had been too lenient with her foot: "He was the one who abused my friend first, and he even beat her into the hospital."
"What do you mean by domestic violence? Didn't she hit me? Didn't I end up in the hospital?!"
"That's enough." Zhou Shilin interrupted their argument. "I'm not a police officer, I'm not responsible for solving cases. Tian Xu, call someone."
"Yes, President!" Tian Xu immediately called the security guards at the door, who dragged Gao Yang away from the company entrance. As Shen Feifei got into the car with Zhou Shilin, she could still hear his cursing gradually fading away.
I definitely didn't hit hard enough just now.
"President, I've contacted the HR department, they'll handle it." Tian Xu, holding his phone, turned to Zhou Shilin to report.
Zhou Shilin nodded and looked at Shen Feifei beside him: "Why are you the one who came?"
"..." Shen Feifei didn't know how to explain. She had logged on suddenly just now. If Zhou Shilin hadn't noticed the problem, she could have found a chance to sneak off. But now it seemed that was not feasible.
While she was lost in thought, Zhou Shilin spoke again: "Is Chen Ci suffering from acute gastroenteritis again?"
“…” Shen Feifei was silent for two seconds, then nodded solemnly, “Yes, gastroenteritis is something that tends to recur.”
Tian Xu, sitting in the front row, almost couldn't hold back. He glanced at Zhou Shilin in the rearview mirror and saw that there was no change on his face. He sighed inwardly, thinking that Zhou Shilin was indeed a man who had seen many ups and downs.
Zhou Shilin looked at Shen Feifei's work clothes and said to her, "You even dressed up as Chen Ci, it's quite a ritual."
Shen Feifei: "..."
“It’s like this,” Shen Feifei said, putting all her years of “creative” experience into making up the story. “Chen Ci wasn’t feeling well at work today. When she received the message from Assistant Tian, she thought she could hold on, but in the end she went home first and asked me to replace her to interview you. We thought you wouldn’t find out.”
Zhou Shilin said, "You two are easy to recognize."
Tian Xu: "..."
No, Mr. President, please wake up!
Shen Feifei said, "We didn't lie to you on purpose. Shen Ci said that your free time is rare and we didn't want to waste this opportunity."
Zhou Shilin didn't answer, but he didn't press the matter, which put Shen Feifei at ease. Thinking about what had happened outside the Shijie Building earlier, she explained to Zhou Shilin again: "Mr. Zhou, that Gao Yang really hit my friend. Last time I rear-ended your car, it was because I was rushing to the hospital to save my friend."
Zhou Shilin glanced at her: "Save me?"
"Yes, Gao Yang called two helpers to the hospital, and Li Linrui called me."
Zhou Shilin asked, "What does your friend see in him?"
Shen Feifei thought for a moment and replied, "Probably working at Shijie would be more promising."
But it's gone now.
After a moment of silence in the car, Zhou Shilin spoke again: "Can I have an interview?"
“No problem, Chen Ci has written an interview outline, it’s in my bag.” Shen Feifei took out the outline and the voice recorder that Chen Ci had prepared from her bag. “Hmm…can we start now?”
"Mm," Zhou Shilin replied briefly.
Tian Xu, sitting in the front row, added, "Our CEO doesn't answer overly personal questions, especially those about relationships."
"Okay." Shen Feifei cleared her throat, turned on the recorder in her hand, and began the interview in a serious manner. "First, let's start with some light questions."
Shen Feifei read from the script, including the narration written by Chen Ci: "What are your thoughts on Shijie employees walking robot dogs in public? Have you ever paid attention to the mental state of Shijie employees?"
Tian Xu: "..."
You really dare to ask that question.
The car fell silent; Tian Xu barely dared to breathe. After a few seconds, Zhou Shilin's voice rang out: "Walking the robot dog isn't something you should do in public, is it? You have to do it secretly. Shijie regularly offers mental health counseling services; employees who need it can consult with professional psychologists for free."
After Zhou Shilin finished speaking, he added, "However, I don't think there's anything wrong with walking robot dogs. In the future, it won't just be dogs; more and more robots will be on the streets."
It was rare for Zhou Shilin to speak such a long sentence in one breath. If it were Tian Xu, he would have already started to worry about what bad luck was coming. But Shen Feifei, holding the interview outline in her hand, nodded without changing her expression: "Okay, the second question is about robots."
Her voice even sounded like it carried a hint of delight at the coincidence.
"Shijie will be providing robot volunteers for the second Pupu Wonderland (hereinafter referred to as PW). I specifically looked into this product and found many funny compilations of robots falling down. In addition, the robots wearing wigs and clothes looked very out of place and were described by some netizens as perverts with cross-dressing fetishes. What do you think about this?"
Tian Xu: "..."
He could tell they didn't want to cooperate anymore.
Zhou Shilin glanced at her and said, "Humans aren't born walking and running either. Every time a robot produced by Shijie falls, our backend receives thousands of sets of abnormal data. This data will provide important help in improving the robot's performance in the future. Robots, or rather the entire humanoid robot industry, are also accelerating their growth through these 'falls'. As for netizens' comments on the robot's clothing, that's a matter of personal aesthetic differences, and I won't comment."
"Great!" Tian Xu applauded Zhou Shilin in his heart. As expected of their CEO, he answered such a tricky question so perfectly! He even added a touch of value at the end!
On the other hand, Shen Feifei maintained the same expression as before, showing no sign of being moved by their president's excellent answer.
Ha, he knew these were all her little tricks to get their CEO's attention.
"The third question," Shen Feifei said, shifting her gaze to the bottom of the page. "Shijie will be setting up an official corporate pavilion at the second PW event, marking Shijie's first participation in such an event. Is this to provide a larger platform for employees who love selling robot dogs?"
Tian Xu: "..."
So what if their employees like selling robot dogs? Was it forced sales?
Zhou Shilin seemed to have gotten used to Chen Ci's "easy question" style and answered without any emotion: "I believe that all the participating companies are here to promote their products. Even your Pupu Paradise is holding a comic convention to enhance brand awareness and influence. I don't think there's anything wrong with that."
“Okay.” Shen Feifei didn’t see any problem with it, so she continued reading the words on the paper, “This is a derivative question of the third question. Does Shijie mind if someone sells hot dogs next to the robot dog?”
Tian Xu: "…………"
Wait a minute, is this some kind of lame joke about cold dogs and hot dogs?
Tian Xu didn't know Chen Ci's original intention in writing this question, but at least no one on the bus was laughing now.
"Given the exhibition layout logic of this scale, it's impossible for food vendors to appear next to the official corporate pavilions. If they do, it only proves that your Pupu Paradise is not professional enough, and we suggest that you don't hold a third edition."
After Zhou Shilin finished speaking, Tian Xu thought Shen Ci would be intimidated by the subtle threat in his words. Unexpectedly, she remained calm under pressure, turned a page of the outline in her hand, and prepared to continue the interview.
However, the driver did not give her that chance, and slowly stopped the car next to a towering building.
"I've arrived." Zhou Shilin unbuckled his seatbelt and prepared to get out of the car. "That's all for today."
"Okay." Shen Feifei hadn't expected it to arrive so quickly. She could only put away her outline and recorder, and thank Zhou Shilin, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for taking the time to grant me this interview."
"You're welcome." Zhou Shilin opened the car door, and before getting out, he looked at Shen Feifei and said, "Please tell Chen Ci that if she's sick, she should get proper treatment. I mean, gastroenteritis."
