Chapter 058 Love Brain 7
Zhang Hui was very puzzled and shocked.
However, as one of the top 500 companies in the country, their company is very eager to recruit talented people.
Zhang Hui, who is considered a half-old employee of the company, is very familiar with this process.
"Please sit down for a moment. The HR specialist will be here soon."
The human resources specialist is responsible for recruitment and interviews. He spends all day looking for various talents on the Internet and at job fairs in the market. He belongs to the human resources department in their company.
The HR specialist came quickly. She was a lady in her twenties, wearing a black business suit and black-framed glasses. She looked very professional.
Xiao Xun pretended to be calm, took out the form he had specially edited at the Internet cafe, spent a few dollars to photocopy his resume, and handed it to the lady.
The HR specialist took it and looked at it. He saw that it only contained name, age, hometown, contact number, some interests and hobbies, and areas of expertise.
It's just... I enjoy playing online games. I have extensive experience leading teams. I won first place in the XX City competition... and second place in last year's provincial competition...
HR specialist: “…”
The HR specialist adjusted the frame of his glasses. "Mr. Xiao, you just turned sixteen this year, right? Excuse me, are you looking to join our company as a summer intern?"
As one of the top 500 domestic enterprises, their company has no intention of violating the national age limit and employing child labor.
Since it is not child labor, the only option is summer job.
However, their company also has very strict employment requirements for summer workers. To put it bluntly, it is some unspoken rules in the industry - on the surface, they express their cooperation with the relevant policies of the country, but in private, they either exclude these short-term employees or put them in less important positions.
After all, no one wants to be the unlucky one. They work hard to train a group of employees, and after finally completing the training, they just leave... This is a lot of time and effort for their company, but what can they get in the end?
Moreover... this Mr. Xiao is only good at playing games, which seems to be completely different from their company's business scope, right?
The HR specialist narrowed his eyes, thinking about something in his mind, but appeared calm on the surface.
Xiao Xun didn't know that the HR specialist was already thinking about it. He nodded and said, "Yes, for some personal reasons, I really need this job."
HR specialist: “…”
She is a very experienced human resources specialist with extensive interview experience and has heard no less than a hundred different interview speeches from interviewees.
As a recruiter, he had a professional disease, so he couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied with the words of a young man like Xiao Xun, who looked very immature and had clear and foolish eyes.
How could this child say such a thing? She had already shown such obvious contempt, and at this moment she should be trying her best to show her strengths, so how could she say such honest words?
Even if he said he had researched their company's business scope and was very optimistic about it, so he wanted to join them, how could he say he came to their company because he needed a job? What kind of company do they think they are?
The HR specialist shook his head in his heart, and then thought of the other party's resume which was completely irrelevant and very honest, and he felt like giving him some advice.
"Mr. Xiao, do you know what our company's business scope is?"
Xiao Xun nodded. He had already looked up the company's information online before coming here. Coincidentally, the company's headquarters was also in their city, and it had very high employee benefits, otherwise he would not have chosen this company to apply for the job.
"I know that your company's main business scope currently includes design, processing, research and development, and sales."
The HR specialist nodded slightly, thinking that it was a good thing that the person didn't give a very general answer like "home furnishings". It seemed that he had put in some effort, at least not so perfunctory.
but……
"Which position does Mr. Xiao want to interview for?"
Xiao Xun was also very distressed about this.
He has no work experience and doesn't know what areas he is suitable for and what he is good at.
The R&D department definitely wouldn't work because he had no experience in related technology, and he had no experience in production, sales...
Xiao Xun has a great prejudice and resistance towards the sales department. This reminds him of those salesmen in daily life who wear suits and ties, carry thick briefcases, and wear black leather shoes, wandering around the streets and alleys, looking for people to sell insurance and houses... They always feel like frauds.
Xiao Xun humbly asked, "Which position do you think I am suitable for?"
HR specialist: “…”
The HR specialist really wants to tell you directly that you are not suitable, but he cannot be so direct, as it will tarnish the image of his company...
She picked up the resume, looked at it carefully, and said, "I've seen that Mr. Xiao has extensive e-sports experience and has won many awards. Do you usually play Weibo?"
Weikan's full name is "See the world in detail", which is a social networking platform.
Xiao Xun nodded, "For fun, I usually share some trivial things in my daily life on the platform."
HR specialist: “…”
Seeing that he didn't understand the underlying meaning, the HR specialist could only point out, "How many followers do you have on Weibo?"
Xiao Xun looked puzzled, but answered honestly, "About 800,000 followers, all of them are self-help fans. Of course, there are also some accounts that sell products."
For some reason, Xiao Xun always felt a little uneasy.
As expected, the HR specialist said, "With over 800,000, he's considered a big V."
She pointed at the resume and said, "Our company has an e-commerce department. Mr. Xiao, are you interested in working in this field?"
"It's not difficult. The e-commerce department is mainly responsible for the company's platform operations, collecting market information, evaluating and refining product operations, event planning and promotion, and other professional scopes. If Mr. Xiao is interested, even if he is a novice, he can get started quickly after professional training."
Xiao Xun: “…”
Xiao Xun instantly recalled those online vendors and merchants, their exaggerated verbal battles, their rhetoric and performances like, "Don't pay 998, don't pay 998, you can take it home for only 18 yuan..."
Xiao Xun's Painful Mask, "Anything else?"
HR specialist: “…”
The HR specialist noticed Xiao Xun's resistance and was unhappy. After all, this was her attempt to find a position that was very suitable for him from Xiao Xun's very unprofessional resume.
It feels like I've been feeding the dog with good intentions.
The HR specialist gave a fake smile. "We're also short of summer workers for workshop workers and clerks. Clerks are generally more likely to be female, though, because they need to be very attentive and patient. It's not gender discrimination, it's just that generally there aren't many male candidates."
Workshop workers...
Isn’t this an assembly line worker???
After hearing what the other party had said, Xiao Xun also realized that there was no hope for him. He stood up with a dusty face and said, "Thank you. I want to take another look."
The HR specialist also stood up and said, "It's okay. It's good for young people to take a closer look."
She paused, "However, since Mr. Xiao has extensive experience in e-sports, why not pursue a career in this field?"
Xiao Xun's eyes lit up. Yes, why couldn't he engage in this kind of work?
After thanking him profusely, Xiao Xun returned home and began searching online for similar jobs. However, most of the jobs in this field were recommended by other players, as it was a small circle, so it was rare to find such job postings online.
He did have some competition experience before, but they were all small-scale activities within the scope of his interests. At least for now, he doesn't know anyone who specializes in this field.
Xiao Xun opened the social platform and typed a line of words in a group called "Whoever cheats is a dog".
[Xiao Xun] Dad: Who has the contact information of GF Club?
Ever since Xiao Yan explained this to Tang Ming, Tang Ming has designated Xiao Xun as a person of special concern so that he can find out any news about him as soon as possible.
There was a ding-dong notification on his phone, and Tang Ming immediately picked up the phone to take a look. As the smartest person in the dog friends circle, Tang Ming understood what Xiao Xun meant.
It seems that Xiao Xun must have hit a wall elsewhere and wants to enter the e-sports industry.
Although Xiao Yan said that they were not allowed to provide financial assistance, he did not say that other exchanges were not allowed.
Since ancient times, there have been policies from the top and countermeasures from the bottom.
Tang Ming was very pleased that Xiao Xun was able to find his own shining point without his brother's help.
Sure enough, the ancients were right. There is motivation only when there is pressure. Brother Yan is worthy of being Brother Yan. He knows what his buddies want.
[Tang Ming] Tang Nima: Xunzi, do you want to join the GF club?
GF Club is one of the top e-sports companies in China. In the eight years since its establishment, it has represented the country in world competitions twice. Although it did not achieve good results in international competitions as in previous years, it has at least broken through and entered the international competition.
After all, China's esports industry emerged late, which can be considered a weakness. But who doesn't gradually improve? You have to learn to walk before you can run; how can you achieve success overnight?
Tang Ming had just finished posting when other friends started to follow suit.
【Guan Yan】Old baby: ???
[Guan Yan] Old baby: @Dad, are you serious?
【Zhou Qingnian】What is Hermès: @Dad, it’s not dark yet, what are you talking in your sleep?
【Dong Su】NB:.
Xiao Xun: “…”
Damn, a bunch of unreliable dog friends!
【Xiao Xun】Dad: Be serious, don't joke around
[Guan Yan] Old baby: ...
【Tang Ming】Tang Nima: ...
【Zhou Qingnian】What is Hermès?
【Dong Su】NB:.
Xiao Xun: “…”
[Tang Ming] Tang Nima: Well, Xunzi, the transfer period is from November to the end of December, and GF's trend is right. I checked and no player wants to transfer this year. If you really want to join GF, I'm afraid you have to sign up for GF's youth training auditions.
Xiao Xun also knew that it would take a lot of time, a certain amount of luck, and strong personal skills to pass GF's youth training auditions and officially participate in the competition.
His skills are considered very good among non-competitive players, but they are not good enough when facing competitive players.
This is the difference between professionals and non-professionals. In addition to talent, it also requires years of targeted training.
However, the fact that they were able to win some commercial competition honors of varying sizes was enough to show that he was also a talented person, but lacked professional training.
[Xiao Xun] Dad: What do you think, we can form an e-sports team ourselves?
[Xiao Xun] Dad: It just so happens that we have five people @all brothers, what do you think, are you interested?
[Guan Yan] Old baby: ...
【Zhou Qingnian】What is Hermès?
【Tang Ming】Tang Nima: ...
【Dong Su】NB:.
Xiao Xun: “…”
Silence is Cambridge tonight.
【Xiao Xun】Father: Brother, come and chop me
[Xiao Xun] Dad: Seriously, don't you want to rely on your own strengths and achieve something? Would you rather spend New Year's visits with friends and family, watching your parents, looking down on you, embarrassedly admitting their children are immature, and looking at other people's children with envy?
[Xiao Xun] Dad: Let’s not talk about anything else, just talking about Lao Zhou, are you willing to be inferior to that illegitimate child forever?
They all belong to the same circle, are the second, third or youngest children in the family, and are not given high hopes by their parents. After all, they have older brothers and sisters to support them. Although they do not have to bear too much, what comes with it is the fact that others say they are far inferior to their older brothers and sisters, which is annoying to hear.
Originally everyone was the same, but there was an outlier in the Zhou family.
The Zhou family members are very complicated.
The eldest son of the Zhou family was born to the original wife, Zhou Qingnian. Later, after his mother's original wife passed away, the mistress brought the illegitimate child into the house. This illegitimate child was Zhou Qingnian's half-brother Zhou Jifeng.
Generally, they were very cautious and would not call Zhou Jifeng his younger brother in front of Zhou Qingnian. They would use the term "illegitimate child" to show that they were on the same side as Zhou Qingnian.
It is said that Zhou Jifeng's mother was Zhou's father's first love. He cheated on his wife during their marriage. After his original wife died, he couldn't wait to bring the mistress and illegitimate child into the house.
What’s hateful is that Zhou’s father and mother originally had a business marriage, but after Zhou’s mother’s family fell into decline, it was impossible to stop it. Now Zhou Qingnian’s position in the Zhou family is very embarrassing.
His father doesn't love him, and his stepmother wants to force him to leave the Zhou family. If Zhou Qingnian and Xiao Xun are not friends, and the Zhou Group still needs to rely on the Xiao family, and cannot do anything too ugly, I'm afraid Zhou's father would have driven Zhou Qingnian back to his hometown and let him fend for himself.
But even so, everyone knows that Zhou Jifeng is the future heir of the Zhou Group, and Zhou Qingnian only has a few properties left to him by his mother, and not even a single share of the company!
Xiao Xun didn't mean to bring up Zhou Qingnian's personal affairs, but no matter how he and his brother quarreled, he still had the inheritance left to him by his parents. Zhou Qingnian was different. If he continued to degenerate like this, when the Zhou Group no longer needed the Xiao Group, all that awaited him was to fend for himself.
Therefore, whether for Zhou Qingnian, for himself, or for his friends who have also become foils to their older brothers and sisters, they should cheer up!
Looking at the group that was as quiet as a chicken, Xiao Xun tried again.
[Xiao Xun] Dad: @爱马什么仕Brother, I'm sorry I hurt your feelings today. I'll treat you another day.
[Xiao Xun] Dad: Brothers, it’s time to cheer up and make others feel that we are beyond our reach!
【Zhou Qingnian】What is Hermès: It’s okay, what you said is the truth anyway
【Zhou Qingnian】What is Hermès: @Dad, what are your thoughts? Count me in
【Guan Yan】Old baby: +1
【Dong Su】NB:.
[Xiao Xun] Dad: This is what I think. We have five people now. Old Tang is the magician, I am the shooter, Old Zhou is the warrior, Old Guan is the support, and Brother Dong is the assassin. It is just enough people. Moreover, we often team up together. We have a tacit understanding with each other and do not need to run in. The only thing we lack now is professional training, that is, we lack a coach and a training room.
[Xiao Xun] Dad: We don't need to build a big shop for now. Let's test the waters first. We can just rent a venue, but we need good equipment. Do you remember that old Zhang from the provincial competition? He has professional equipment there, and it looks pretty good, but we need to go and test it out in person...
Looking at the heated discussion in the group, Tang Ming couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
After a long time, he slowly asked in the group:
[Tang Ming] Tang Nima: How to calculate the funds?
Yes, no one present knew better than him that Xiao Xun was broke! And he couldn't support Xiao Xun too obviously, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Xun also took this into consideration.
[Xiao Xun] Dad: I'm short on cash right now. I'll provide the manpower and be responsible for overall planning and arrangements, and you'll provide the money and technology. If there are endorsements and profits later, the individual and the team will split the profits 30% and 70%, and the total profit after investment will be shared equally... We'll have a lawyer draft a contract for this.
Everyone agreed immediately. After all, with their wealth, although they couldn't take over a big company, they could still make a small move. So they started discussing the matter.
The leased location is the office area on the 12th floor of an office building in Wuxia Plaza, Chaoyang District, H City.
It is glass with film as partition, which separates the conference room, office area, tea room, office and toilet.
Judging from the remaining office desks and chairs, various fill-light panels, and decorations inside, the former company should have been a small internet celebrity incubation base that was eliminated.
Xiao Xun retained the tea room and lounge, adding several foldable lounge chairs and massage chairs. The conference room was equipped with conference equipment developed by the Xiao Group. Relatively speaking, the office area had received a larger investment.
Currently, the largest e-sports competition is the Cambrian period.
This game has two modes: PVP and PVE.
The previous Cambrian was a 2D plane transformation 3D style fighting game. Since the Xiao Group developed the GS holographic technology, the founder of this game also introduced the GS holographic technology.
Now, Cambrian can reflect brain waves to the system through game helmets or game cabins, allowing players to enter the game world and become the game character 'itself'.
In the game, players can freely choose to control their five senses. However, in order to prevent unnecessary damage to physical and mental health, the Xiao Group, under state supervision, strictly controls various values within the threshold range of healthy human tolerance to prevent people from using the game to harm others or themselves.
GS holographic technology has brought various patients with limited mobility around the world, such as ALS and paralyzed people, back to life mentally.
These are all off-topic. In order to train better, Xiao Xun purchased a batch of professional-grade gaming consoles through Lao Zhang's channel.
This batch of game warehouses alone has already taken up 50% of the investment amount. It has to be said that the game is really a money-burning business.
At the same time, they also reached a cooperation with a housekeeping company, hired an aunt to come and clean at 6 pm every day, ordered three meals a day from a nearby restaurant as employee meals, and signed a special physical training contract with the gym downstairs.
While busy, Xiao Xun also learned about the Xiao Group's affairs from the Internet.
[Tea Room]
Several teenagers were lying or sitting on the comfortable sofa, and the projection screen in front of them was playing the real-time content of the national TV station.
In the video, a national reporter was seen smiling brightly, holding a starry blue bracelet with a dot of light in his hand. He introduced it to the camera: "This is Guardian No. 1, developed by the Xiao Group. As its name suggests, it is a comprehensive protection device that can take effective measures in the face of emergencies. For example, for workers working at heights who are in danger of falling, or in the event of a fire, earthquake, or tsunami..."
"Guardian No. 1 has reached a cooperation agreement with the country and is currently in emergency production. We have already increased supply to various locations. I believe that in the near future, every citizen of our country will have one..."
"You don't have to worry about high prices. Just download the Huashe app, enter your personal information, make an appointment online or at the local Huashe Bureau, and you can buy it at a low price. The elderly, children, pregnant women, people with disabilities, people working in special occupations, and soldiers are given priority..."
Following the national TV station's report, it has caused a sensation on the Internet.
Beiwang: I'm overseas and have downloaded Huashe. Can I buy it? Can't wait!
Lili: The netizen above said that it's not currently sold abroad. The government has stated that it prioritizes Chinese citizens before considering cooperation with friendly countries. As for Chinese citizens abroad, as long as they are from Country Z, they can make an appointment at the embassy of Country Z!
Asteroid: Suddenly thinking of Country Z's craze... Imagine how many people would immigrate just for Guardian One? I wonder, for those who have already immigrated, do they regret it now? I hope the country maintains strict confidentiality and prevents foreign infiltration!
Twilight: A transmission line maintenance worker drifted by... Our industry is high-risk, and quite a few workers get into accidents every year. With Guardian One, safety is guaranteed. Also, bragging! As workers in high-risk special occupations, we've received Guardian Ones, which were prioritized by the state. Haha, I'm already using them! Who knew?!
Twilight: Also, Guardian One is truly amazing! The other day, a colleague wasn't properly operating at height, and thanks to Guardian One's immediate warning, they were able to avoid danger! But a special reminder: even with Guardian One, don't let your guard down! Only by following proper procedures can you avoid any potential safety hazards!
Lingling: I won’t tell you who is jealous.
Kanae: Ahhhh I want it too! When will it be my turn!?
Gao Lili: I'm in Bushino, you have no idea what I encountered today! As everyone knows, Bushino is in a period of preparation for war. Under the deterrence of nuclear weapons, no one thought that a war would break out. We all thought it would be the same as usual, just a war of words and cyber information war, like a short-legged cat scratching me and scratching you, scratching all the air. But at 9:20 this morning, not far from me,
Zhu: ??? Not far away? Why don't you finish your sentence?! You're talking halfway through, and the instant noodles have no seasoning!
Little Pig: Oh shit! I was just curious and did a search, and I found out that Bushino and its old neighbor, Kefei, got into a fight! It happened around 9 o'clock this morning! @Gao Lili, are you okay? If you see me, please let me know you're safe! Also, please note that Chinese citizens still in Bushino, please call the embassy immediately and don't go out! Be sure to store food and protect your own safety. The country will bring you home safely! Bushino Embassy Contact InformationXXX
What are you trying to say: Oh my God! I hope my compatriots return home safely!
Gao Lili: Thank you so much for your concern. The embassy has already contacted me, which is why I was unable to respond in time. Rest assured, the embassy has contacted us recently, and Guardian One has been distributed to us.
Gao Lili: It's worth mentioning that today, a classmate of mine who was studying abroad in Bushino was in the middle of a battle, with bullets flying everywhere. Fortunately, Guardian One activated the defense, which was like putting up a shield in a novel! People from other countries were envious and kept asking if our country could support them. It is said that the embassies of those countries are still negotiating with our country. However, some foreigners from friendly countries stationed in Bushino have already received Guardian One.
Gao Lili: Oh, right! The embassy has already negotiated with Bushino and Kefei. We'll be able to return home in a week! Thank you, country! Thank you, Guardian One! Thank you, the R&D staff!!!
Vast: The great China, the majestic China!
Wei: Great China, majestic China!
…
In the tea room, everyone was silent, and then exclaimed.
"Axun, you are so unfair! Why didn't you tell me that you have such a good thing at home? Do I need this little money?" Guan Yan pointed.
Zhou Qingnian's face was filled with suspicion. "You don't seem like the type to keep secrets, and you're the only one who can hold back from showing off? Hiss—that's not like you, Old Xiao!"
Dong Su didn't say anything, but the look he gave Xiao Xun was full of condemnation.
Xiao Xun: “…”
To be honest, could he say that he just found out?
Xiao Xun was a little embarrassed, and Tang Ming knew why he was embarrassed. After all, Xiao Xun and his brother had fallen out, so it would be strange if he knew!
Tang Ming respected Xiao Xun's desire to keep the secret secret and didn't break it. He helped him out by saying, "Xunzi didn't mean to be mean to you. He's been busy with team matters these days, so how could he care about these things?"
Worried that they might try to get in through the backdoor with Xiao Xun, Tang Ming added, "Besides, you all know this is a matter related to the country. Brother Yan has always been handling company matters, and they are also confidential. Everything must be done according to the rules. How could he let others know so easily? Not to mention you, even Xunzi has to follow the rules. There's no rush. It will eventually be our turn..."
He changed the subject, "By the way, the company has been established, what is the name of our team?"
He really is, it's really hard for him as a brother to do this!
When the team name was mentioned, everyone quickly shifted their attention.
"Think of a Chinese name first, and then use the abbreviation to make an English name." Xiao Xun pointed out the key point.
English is an international language, and Cambrian is a foreign game. In the past, there were relatively few domestic competitions, and in order to participate in international competitions, most people prefer to use foreign languages to make it easier for international e-sports fans to recognize players and teams. This is also the reason why most teams have English names.
At the same time, this also symbolizes their ambition to enter international competitions.
