"You...you stay away!"
"Otherwise, we won't be polite..."
The two robbers brandished their kitchen knives at Shen Yu, issuing a threatening but ultimately weak warning.
If it weren't for seeing their trembling bodies and hands, Shenyu would almost have believed them.
She was too lazy to waste any more words with them, so she rushed forward and kicked each of them, breaking their ribs with a series of "cracks".
She looked down at them and said calmly, "I'll break a few of your ribs today so you'll remember this: the more you climb the mountains, the more likely you are to encounter a tiger!"
“Look at you grown men. Since you all have good hands and feet, you should find a job instead of doing things that are immoral and immoral.”
"I'm only teaching you a lesson today. If there's a next time, I'll send you straight to jail!"
After saying that, Shen Yu stepped forward, grabbed the sharp iron and threw it aside. Then she dragged the bandits who were lying on the ground to the roadside and threw them down, regardless of whether they were screaming in pain.
Under Song Dahai's shocked gaze, Shen Yu calmly greeted him, "Master Song, what are you standing there for? Get in the car!"
Song Dahai then realized what was happening, "Oh, okay, get in the car, get in the car!"
As Song Dahai started the car and sped off towards Guangzhou, Xiang Hong finally let out a long breath, feeling as if she had come back to life.
She turned her head excitedly, looking at Shen Yu in the back seat with eyes full of admiration, and said, "Chairman Shen, you're amazing! My goodness! This is the first time I've ever seen a girl so skilled. I really admire you!"
Shen Yu smiled and said to her, "If a girl has some fighting skills, she can better protect herself."
Xiang Hong wholeheartedly agreed, "Yes, becoming a martial arts master isn't just a man's dream; we women also aspire to be martial arts masters. We just don't know where to find a master. Mr. Shen, do you accept disciples?"
Shen Yu smiled and said, "I'm quite busy right now and don't have time to train apprentices. However, our factory has many skilled people. For example, the comrades in our security team are among the best retired soldiers. You can find them and practice some basic punches and kicks with them first."
"However, martial arts training is very tough. Can you endure that kind of hardship?"
Xiang Hong responded loudly, "I can! I definitely can! Chairman Shen, to be honest, my hometown is also a very mountainous place. We have to walk more than ten kilometers to and from school every day."
“My family is also very poor. If my parents hadn’t been so open-minded and willing to do everything in our family’s resources to support my education, I wouldn’t have been able to pass the exam and attend a junior college in Guangzhou.”
Shen Yu asked her with some curiosity, "Then why don't you go back to work at your old workplace in your hometown? Government jobs are highly sought after!"
College graduates of their generation were also assigned jobs, but generally they were assigned back to their hometowns.
Only those with connections and networks can stay and work in companies in big cities.
Xiang Hong sighed softly, "I was assigned to work in a unit in my hometown, but after working there for a while, I felt that this was not what I wanted."
“The company my family works at is not doing well and can’t even pay salaries. My whole family has been saving every penny to support my college education for so many years.”
"But after I graduated from junior college, I was assigned to a unit like this. I can't even feed myself, so how can I repay my family?"
"I heard from a classmate who stayed in Shenzhen to work that there were companies hiring here, so I quickly took leave and came here for an interview. I didn't expect to actually get the job!"
"I've taken a leave of absence from my job at home. Once things have settled down here, I'll quit my job there."
After listening to Xiang Hong's story, Shen Yu felt a little emotional. "You guys have it really tough. Keep up the good work. Our company's benefits are pretty good. As long as you work hard, you'll have opportunities for promotion in the future."
Xiang Hong nodded vigorously, "Chairman Shen, I will definitely work hard. Although I haven't been with the company for long, I have already found that our company is really good. Whether it's the salary, accommodation, or food, everything is very good. I am very satisfied."
Song Dahai added, "I also think our company is great. If nothing unexpected happens, I will continue to work here."
Shen Yu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, then you can work for our company for the rest of your life."
Song Dahai smiled and replied, "Sure, sure. To be honest, my family is also very poor. In the countryside, we have no other income besides farming. Now my family is relying on my salary to improve our lives."
There were many, many more children like Xiang Hong, who came from impoverished families, and Song Dahai, who joined the army, in this era.
But passing the exam or serving in the military does not mean they have succeeded.
For example, children like Xiang Hong from poor families, who finally finish junior college or university, are assigned to a struggling company that can't even pay their wages. That's definitely not the outcome they want.
Their dreams of getting ahead through education will likely be shattered.
But Xiang Hong had the courage to give up the job she had finally been assigned and to find a new one. She was unwilling to be ordinary and refused to accept her fate, which Shen Yu greatly admired.
This courage to face difficulties and change her life will give her more opportunities and make her future path easier.
Even if she encounters various difficulties in the future, I believe that with her personality, she will actively solve the problems instead of being passive and running away.
This is exactly the kind of subordinate Shen Yu needs most.
No company or boss would want to hire a lazy, irresponsible, and unserious employee.
A conscientious boss will ensure that you reap what you sow.
Only those unscrupulous bosses might make you put in effort but not get the corresponding return.
In this era, the law is not perfect, and there are many unscrupulous factories and companies that exploit their employees.
Even in later generations, there are still many unscrupulous bosses, and news reports often show employees suing their employers.
When job hunting, you must learn to discern the truth. Before joining a company, ask around about it. If you find anything wrong with the company, such as withholding wages, poor performance, or imposing fines at the drop of a hat, you must cut your losses in time and not join the company, or leave as soon as possible.
The three of them chatted all the way and soon arrived at the Guangzhou Film Studio.
At the main gate, Xiang Hong got out of the car and registered.
The guards on duty at the gatehouse had been instructed by Director Yang that if they saw Chairman Shen of the Gangcheng Qiao Group coming over, they must immediately notify him.
After the gatekeeper opened the gate and let Shen Yu and the others in, he immediately made an internal call to Director Yang.
"Director Yang, Chairman Shen of the Qiao Group in Gangcheng has arrived with his men. I have already let them in."
