Chapter 15 Why do you and President Zhou have so much nonsense to say...?
After Zhou Shilin left, the driver in the front seat asked Shen Feifei, "Miss Shen, are you going back to the company now? President Zhou instructed me to take you there."
Shen Feifei had already unbuckled her seatbelt. Hearing the driver ask her this, she was somewhat surprised: "Aren't you going to wait here for President Zhou?"
The driver said, "Mr. Zhou won't be leaving until dinner time. I'll drop you off and then come back."
"Oh, I see." Shen Feifei fastened her seatbelt again. "Then thank you for your kindness, Mr. Zhou. Please take me home first."
"Okay," the driver replied, starting the car.
Shen Feifei's home was very close to the company. She told the driver the address, and he quickly located her apartment complex. After arriving home, Shen Feifei first wrote down what had happened that day in her notebook before logging off with peace of mind.
When Chen Ci opened her eyes, her voice recorder was on the dressing table, with a familiar notebook underneath.
Chen Ci picked up the recorder, looked at it, and began to read the notes that Shen Feifei had just written.
"On July 21st, the weather was sunny. When I came to Shijie to see President Zhou, I ran into Gao Yang. He tried to ambush me but failed and was fired by Shijie. What a wicked man gets his just deserts. However, President Zhou recognized me and could only lie and say that my gastroenteritis had flared up again, and he helped me interview him. The journey was short, but the interview was very successful. President Zhou also asked me to tell you to take good care of yourself."
Chen Ci: "..."
Shen Feifei conducted the interview for her? Why did she suddenly feel so flustered?
She immediately turned on the recorder and played the conversation between Shen Feifei and Zhou Shilin at the car dealership.
"...What are your thoughts on the behavior of Shijie employees walking a robot dog in public? Do you usually pay attention to the mental state of Shijie employees?"
Chen Ci: "…………"
Help! Why did she read aloud my draft that I was just writing for fun?!
As everyone knows, Shen Ci is not a reporter and has never interviewed anyone before. When she suddenly received the interview assignment from Wu Junnan, she didn't know what to ask Zhou Shilin.
So she decided to follow her heart and write down a few of the questions she most wanted to ask.
After writing it down, she read it several times and laughed at herself. She was quite satisfied with these questions, but she didn't have the guts to actually ask Zhou Shilin about them.
Later, she simply had an AI write an interview outline for her, using the one developed by Shijie.
This is called making the best use of resources.
Unexpectedly, Shen Feifei actually asked the questions she had written down herself!
Someone please save her!
As the recording progressed, Chen Ci grew increasingly desperate. She even became numb and calm when she heard Zhou Shilin say that PW would not be holding its third edition.
Hopefully, when Mr. Wu learns of this news, he will be as calm as she is.
"...Please tell Chen Ci that if she's sick, she should get proper treatment. I mean, gastroenteritis."
Chen Ci: "..."
Was he saying she had gastroenteritis? He was clearly saying she was mentally ill!
...But she is definitely mentally ill.
Hehe.
Chen Ci turned off the recorder, looked in the mirror, and slowly smiled.
People really do laugh when they're extremely angry. :)
"Is this what you mean by a successful interview? Haha, I've discovered you're not only confident, but also very humorous." Chen Ci's smile in the mirror grew increasingly eerie. "Starting next month, we have to pay back 10,000 yuan of debt to Boss Zhou every month. If we lose our jobs now, we'll both starve to death on the streets."
Shen Feifei, who was on standby: "..."
What do you mean? Did the interview not go well? But didn't Mr. Zhou answer every question very well?
"What if you just turned one more page?" Chen Ci raised her hand and pinched her philtrum. "Don't be angry, don't be angry. Getting angry will ruin your health and you'll have to spend money to treat it."
She tilted her head back, took a few deep breaths, picked up her phone, and quickly typed a message for Zhou Shilin.
Chen Ci: Mr. Zhou, after listening to my sister's interview recording, I realized she brought the wrong transcript!! Those weren't the questions I wanted to ask!! When will you have time so we can do a re-interview? QAQ
Chenci: I'm so sorry!
Chenci: [Sorry.jpg]
Chenci: [Offering you my sincerest apologies.jpg]
Chen Ci: [Kneeling and crying.jpg]
Chen Ci sent messages one after another, but Zhou Shilin didn't reply. She guessed he was busy with work, so she stopped bothering him. Putting the recorder in her bag, Chen Ci checked the time. Although she would be off work in an hour, this weekend was the day of PW2, and the company was extremely busy. She would most likely have to work overtime that night.
When she arrived at the company, there was indeed no sign of it being close to the end of the workday. Just as Chen Ci was about to return to her office, Wu Junnan, who was passing by, called out to her: "Junior Sister, you're back? How did the interview go?"
Chen Ci: "..."
You wouldn't want to know.
"Hmm...very successful." Chen Ci gave Wu Junnan a confident smile. "It's just that there wasn't enough time on the road, so I only asked a few questions. I'm scheduling another interview with President Zhou."
"Oh, okay." Wu Junnan didn't suspect anything, but he was curious about today's interview. "Then send me today's interview to listen to."
"...Let me organize it and send it to you together." Chen Ci calmly and placatingly fooled her boss. "The recording hasn't been edited and has a lot of nonsense, so I won't waste your time."
Upon hearing this, Wu Junnan's expression suddenly changed, as if he had seen through something: "Oh, you and President Zhou have so much nonsense to talk about?"
Chen Ci: "..."
Thank you, Mr. Wu, for your perseverance in spreading rumors about Mr. Zhou.
"Haha, I'll go get busy now." She chuckled awkwardly twice, pushed open the office door, and went inside.
As Chen Ci had expected, everyone was working overtime that night. The company ordered staff meals so they could eat while they worked. Chen Ci was still coordinating with the exhibition hall when she received a message on WeChat. She opened it casually and, upon seeing Zhou Shilin's name, immediately stopped what she was doing.
Zhou Shilin: You didn't write the manuscript?
Chen Ci: "..."
Two seconds later, Zhou Shilin received a reply from Chen Ci: "It was written by AI."
Another comment followed: "I just wanted to try it out, but I found that AI is still not smart enough."
Zhou Shilin: To be able to write a draft like this is incredibly intelligent.
Chen Ci: "..."
She decided to skip over the question altogether.
Chen Ci: Mr. Zhou, PW2 is this weekend, will I still get an interview? [crying]
Zhou Shilin skipped over her question: "Your gastroenteritis is cured?"
Chen Ci: "..."
Chen Ci: I feel better after taking the medicine, thank you for your concern, Mr. Zhou.
Zhou Shilin: Then get some rest.
"..." She wanted to too! But how could they, like cattle and horses, make such a decision!
Chenci: I'm very busy before PW, currently working overtime at the company.
Zhou Shilin: Let's talk about the interview after PW ends and you're less busy.
"..." Then it's too late! She even suspected that Zhou Shilin did it on purpose!
Chen Ci held her breath and thought for a while before tentatively sending a message to Zhou Shilin.
Chen Ci: Mr. Zhou, if you really can't spare the time, can I use a compromise method?
Zhou Shilin: Tell me about it.
Chen Ci: Your answers in today's interview were perfect. I'll slightly modify my question and still use your answers, which should also work.
Chenci: Of course, I will send you all the revised issues first.
Zhou Shilin: So this is how the media these days fabricate stories?
Chen Ci: ...No, I mean I'm not from the media.
Zhou Shilin's lips curled up slightly. He sat in the car, stretched his neck a little, and sent Chen Ci a reply: "I'll contact you again when I have time."
Antique porcelain: Aisin, etc. [rose emoji]
And then this wait lasted until the day before PW started. :)
She knew it all – men's words were never to be trusted!
Wu Junnan couldn't be delayed any longer, so Chen Ci had no choice but to send him the altered version of the manuscript.
"The content is too short. It would be even better if it included a photo of President Zhou," Wu Junnan commented after reading it.
Chen Ci chuckled twice, suggesting that Mr. Wu should personally interview Mr. Zhou: "Mr. Zhou's schedule is always very full, and he really can't find the time. I will contact him again today to see if we can do an online interview."
Wu Junnan nodded. He understood that Zhou, the CEO of Shijie Group, was very busy and simply didn't have time for face-to-face interviews, so they had to settle for online interviews: "Then the photos..."
"How about we use your photo, senior brother?" Chen Ci offered another solution.
This plan successfully silenced Wu Junnan.
"Then let's forget about it. After all, only someone with your sister-in-law's taste can appreciate my beauty."
Chen Ci nodded: "The general public can only appreciate someone like President Zhou."
Wu Junnan: "..."
She didn't let him off the hook either.
After leaving Wu Junnan's office, Chen Ci went back and sent another message to Zhou Shilin, asking if he could conduct an online interview.
This time, Zhou Shilin responded after a short while: "Send me a copy of the interview outline first."
Chen Ci immediately sent over the outline she had prepared.
Zhou Shilin: This looks more like it was written by AI.
Chen Ci: "..."
To be honest, AI is truly Zhou's own creation.
