Chapter 33 Talent



In the supervisor's office, Chen Xu originally thought that Lao Wang wanted to give him a warning, but unexpectedly he said that he would transfer him to the newly established marketing department.

Lao Wang has a square face with a distinctive mole on his left cheekbone. "Don't underestimate this new department. The bosses take it very seriously. It's your luck and your opportunity to be transferred there."

"But……"

Chen Xu was already preparing to resign, so naturally he wasn't going to accept it.

"Don't say but." Lao Wang interrupted him and whispered, "This newly established marketing department is managed by Vice President Liu himself, and the staff are drawn from various departments. I heard from Lao He from the Human Resources Department that the salary of those transferred to the new department will be increased by a certain amount, at least 20%."

When he said the last point, there was obvious envy on his face.

Chen Xu wanted to refuse, but swallowed it back immediately.

If I can get a raise by transferring there, I can consider it. Thinking of this, he said, "Give me a day to think about it."

"Okay, anyway, Lao He will talk to you in person tomorrow." After Lao Wang said this, he let him go out to work.

…………

"Are you okay?"

As soon as Chen Xu returned to his seat, Old Tang turned around and asked.

He shook his head to indicate that it was okay, and habitually picked up a pen and began to scribble on the paper. His current salary, after tax, was only a little over 4,000. Even if it was increased by 20%, it would still be less than 5,000.

Not too much, not too little.

In the past, he felt that with his academic qualifications, he was lucky to be able to work in a large company. Even if the salary was low, he could accept it and just endured it.

However, such a small salary was not enough to live in this big city. He had to send money home every month, which made his life even more difficult.

After nearly two years of hard work, his salary only increased slightly, and he really couldn't bear it anymore. This was also the fundamental reason for his resignation. As for Luo Xiyun, it was just an opportunity.

"Let's talk to Manager He tomorrow and see if we can negotiate for a higher salary."

He quickly made a decision in his mind.

These days, he gradually recalled many details of his dream. This brought some subtle changes to him. At least, he was not as afraid of job hopping as before, and he had the confidence to negotiate with the head of the human resources department.

In the past, he had too many concerns and was not confident enough in his abilities. He was worried that after losing his job, he would have no source of income, his survival would become a problem, and his family would also fall into trouble.

Now, after experiencing life as the only person left in the world, what did he count for?

Just that experience in the dream was an invaluable treasure to him.

Thinking of this, he tore off the paper he had scribbled on, crumpled it into a ball, and without even looking at it, threw it towards the trash can.

After throwing it out, he turned around and watched the paper ball fly steadily into the trash can.

"Huh?"

He was a little surprised.

When he was thinking about something, he always had the habit of scribbling on paper, and every time he finished writing, he would throw it away.

However, his accuracy is not high and he often misses the target. That means he has to go back and pick up the paper and throw it back into the trash can. Even so, he still enjoys it. It is also a way for him to relieve stress.

He had been very lucky these past few days, hitting the target every time. Until just now, he felt that this was not something that could be achieved simply by having good luck.

“Could it be…”

He remembered the talent card he got at the end of the dream, the name of which was "Accurate Throwing".

Could it be that this talent card is not only effective in the dream world?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help swallowing.

"Try again."

He tore off another piece of paper, crumpled it into a ball, and then, with his back to the wastebasket, threw it out based on his feeling.

When I turned around, I saw the paper ball flying in an arc and landing accurately in the wastebasket.

His heart also trembled, knowing that his guess was very likely true.

For a moment, he was pleasantly surprised.

Then, he forgot about transferring to a new department and looking for a new job. He only thought about how far he could go with this talent he got from the dream world.

Unfortunately, this was the company and it was working hours, so he could only wait patiently.

………………

After finally getting off work, Chen Xu returned home as quickly as possible and started trying.

As the name of this talent suggests, it is related to throwing.

He found several items of varying weights and sizes, including an unopened 1.5L bottle of mineral water, an empty cigarette box, packaged potato chips, and a book.

Then he placed a bucket against the wall, stepped outside the balcony, and tried the heaviest mineral water first.

Bang.

The mineral water fell to the ground and missed.

“No way…”

The unsuccessful start made him frown. He went over to pick up the mineral water, went back to the balcony, and tried again.

Bang.

This time, the mineral water fell accurately into the bucket.

"Try again."

He picked up the mineral water again, threw it out for the third time, and hit it again.

After being hit twice in a row, he felt it was not enough.

Before throwing it for the fourth time, he closed his eyes and threw it out again.

Bang, the water bottle flew into the bucket accurately.

"It seems like there's no escape. The talent card obtained in the dream can also work in reality."

This result made him tremble with excitement.

Before entering the dream, he thought that virtual dream equipment could only satisfy some YY fantasies.

After entering the dream for the first time, his thoughts changed. In the dream, he could have experiences that others could not imagine and increase his life experience.

Only now did he realize that he was wrong, very wrong.

The talent he got in his dream could actually appear in his real body. The value of this virtual dream device was much higher than he had imagined.

This means that the skills he learned in his dreams can also be mastered in reality.

Unfortunately, in his last dream, he practiced shooting the most. In reality, it is not easy to touch a gun, so he has no way to verify this for the time being.

Of course, even if his guess was wrong, as long as he could get a few more talent cards, it would be awesome enough.

Thinking of this, he wished he could start his second dream right away.

"There are still three weeks left. It's hard to wait."

He sighed and quickly shifted his attention to try throwing a few other things.

He played with it as if he had got a new toy and never got tired of it. In addition to the few things he prepared at the beginning, he also threw everything that could be thrown in the room.

Soon, he discovered a pattern: Every time he changed something, he would miss the target the first one or two times.

But he always found his aim quickly, and by the third time, he never missed.

This also made him realize that what he had was just a talent, which needed practice to be perfectly mastered.
