The next day, Wu Jing saw the sketch Jiang Hua had given him and was once again full of praise. He really thought Jiang Hua was amazing. He was a man of few words, but when he did speak, he was astonishing. This brilliant sketch was not inferior even on the international stage.
Gu Yiming sent another email to the headhunting firm, outlining his requirements, and they responded quickly, saying that someone wanted to apply.
"Gu Yiming. HR said someone has applied for the job. Go take a look." Jiang Hua wasn't very familiar with HR, and she didn't know what kind of person Gu Yiming needed, so she called Gu Yiming out from his lunch break.
"Hey, I'm here for a job interview. Where's your contract? Show it to me."
The other person was a fat man, around twenty years old, with a round face and a short neck. Gu Yiming frowned. Putting everything else aside, the fact that he was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed and propped up on the coffee table was already very unpleasant.
However, Gu Yiming still took a look at the other party's information.
"Mr. Zhu, is that right? Come on, let's get to know each other first. Let me introduce myself first. My surname is Gu, and I'm currently the person in charge of this game company. Our game is roughly..."
The man surnamed Zhu suddenly waved his hand and said disdainfully, "Hmph, with a game company this small, I can probably tell that you're probably just making those kinds of trashy web games on the market. There's nothing to introduce. Enough nonsense. You've seen my resume. I'm a top student who graduated from A University and am preparing to pursue a master's degree. I'm also a game design major. What salary are you offering? What's the base salary? Just tell me!"
"Mr. Zhu graduated from A University with a major in game design. Our company is in need of talent in this field. So, does Mr. Zhu have any works that we can take a look at?" Gu Yiming raised an eyebrow and asked casually.
"Heh. Fine, then let me show you my work," the man surnamed Zhu said smugly, carefully taking a document from a folder and slamming it onto the table. A hint of arrogance lingered in his eyes. It was clear he was very confident in his work.
The fat man regretted stepping into the company the moment he entered. It was a tiny company, with only a few people bustling around. It couldn't compare to the grandeur of those big companies. But since he was already there, he figured he might as well apply for a job. Perhaps small companies didn't have the same high requirements as big ones, but he was still quite confident in himself, after all, he was a graduate of the nationally renowned University A. If the boss offered a high enough salary, he might consider it.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhu's direction is not quite aligned with our company's. Perhaps another company would be a better fit for him."
Seeing the fat man's foolish game, which looked like something a child would design, Gu Yiming finally lost his patience. He stood up and strode away.
"What do you mean?!" The fat man was both shocked and angry. "Do you think a small company like yours can afford to hire some really top-notch game developers?"
"Excuse me, Mr. Zhu, although my company is in its early stages, our goal from the beginning has been very clear: to become a world-class game company. Therefore, we absolutely will not hire anyone who is just filling a position without merit." Gu Yiming said coldly, while giving Jiang Hua a look.
Jiang Hua realized that Gu Yiming hadn't found a suitable person, and this was a way of telling him to leave. She chuckled and led the fat man out of the company. Even though the fat man kept grumbling the whole way.
Seeing Gu Yiming's hesitant gaze, Jiang Hua walked over. She knew Gu Yiming was anxious. He had been waiting for three days and no one had come to apply. Finally, one person came, but he turned out to be an incompetent fool.
"Gu Yiming, stop sighing. Look at your furrowed brow, it's like you're about to trap a fly." Jiang Hua joked.
"It's all because of that fat guy. It's a waste of my precious time to have someone like that interview me."
Jiang Hua parted her red lips slightly and said, "All I saw on the fat man's resume was that he graduated from A University, and he seemed very arrogant. I thought to myself, aren't all talented people arrogant? I didn't expect him to be just a filler!"
The game's world view has been initially formed, and the next step is to make more detailed plans. The problem of manpower shortage has been exposed once again.
At noon, Gu Yiming and Jiang Hua went for a walk and talked about recruiting.
Jiang Hua suddenly had an idea
"Gu Yiming, we've all forgotten one place."
"The landscape is as beautiful as a painting!"
"The landscape is like a painting?" Gu Yiming asked in return.
"Yes, Jiang, think about it. We've been searching the job market for so long without finding a suitable candidate, so we have to try other methods. And Jiangshan Ruhua is a place full of hidden talents. If we search here, our chances will greatly increase!"
After a moment's thought, Gu Yiming felt that Jiang Hua's words made a lot of sense.
After Gu Yiming posted the job advertisement on Jiangshan Ruhua, people quickly came to apply.
Based on previous examples, the HR department first showed the samples to Gu Yiming, and only after Gu Yiming approved them did they dare to keep them for practical use.
Wu Jing was not polite at all. He didn't stand on ceremony with the new recruit and directly gave him a very complicated design. Unexpectedly, the person had finished it in just half a day, and did it very well. Wu Jing couldn't find a single mistake.
After a few days of getting to know him, Jiang Hua discovered that this person was truly talented. She thought to herself, "Jiangshan Ruhua is indeed a place where hidden talents abound. This person is far superior to those incompetent people recruited by headhunting companies who use the guise of prestigious universities to demand high salaries!"
Gu Yiming tapped the table: "Wu Jing, what do you think?"
Wu Jing initially seemed indifferent. "So-so."
Gu Yiming kept staring at him, "No mirror!"
Knowing he couldn't keep up the act any longer, Wu Jing immediately told Gu Yiming the truth: "Boss, after my constant observation and scrutiny, I think this person is no ordinary person!"
"Oh?" Gu Yiming raised an eyebrow. "There are really not many people who can make you, Wu Jing, say that they are not simple!"
“Indeed.” Wu Jing nodded. “He can solve most medium-difficulty problems, which isn’t anything special. But you can see that he completes them very quickly, and there are no bugs at all. I’ve decided to assign him some of the more difficult tasks.”
After the first applicant appeared, more and more people from Jiangshan Ruhua started applying. Jianghua was busy with design work and didn't have time to manage it, so the HR department finally started to get busy. Moreover, almost all of them had their own talents, and the company emerged from the initial predicament of not being able to recruit people and suddenly became full of talent.
"This is exactly the kind of vibrant company I wanted!" Gu Yiming was very satisfied.
