Luo Qiu's interview was perfect.
After all, the requirements for this position weren't too high to begin with, and Lu Zhe had given him a heads-up beforehand, telling him what preparations he needed to make. So, in front of Mao Kai, the guy was full of confidence, demonstrating the logical thinking and narrative skills of a philosophy major to the fullest.
At the end of the interview, Mao Kai took the initiative to shake his hand and smiled, "I know you must have prepared in advance, but your performance was really good. If nothing unexpected happens, you should receive an offer in the next couple of days."
Luo Qiu smiled and said, "Thank you for taking care of me, Brother Kai."
Mao Kai: "Hey, I didn't give you special treatment. I'm a fair interviewer, you know?"
Luo Qiu nodded quickly: "I understand, of course I understand!"
"Then I won't see you off. Let Lu Zhe escort you downstairs."
After saying that, Mao Kai smiled, turned around, and walked out.
Luo Qiu stood up and subconsciously took out his phone, only to find a missed call from Shen Leyou. Judging by the time, it seemed to have been made just as his interview had begun.
Just then, Lu Zhe came over and grabbed his arm.
"Let's go find Shen Leyou."
Luo Qiu looked bewildered: "What's wrong with Old Shen?"
Lu Zhe: "His new job had problems, and he just ran away from that company. I sent him my location and asked him to come over. Judging from the time, it should be about right."
Luo Qiu: "No, what problems could his company have? Did it go bankrupt?"
Lu Zhe: "It's more serious than a landmine."
Luo Qiu scrutinized the man's expression and found it rather strange. Lu Zhe's face was solemn, his lips pursed. However, despite his efforts to purse his lips, the corners of his mouth were still slightly upturned, and there was a hint of barely suppressed laughter in his eyes.
Suddenly, Lu Zhe took out his phone, glanced at it, and said, "He's already here. Let's go down."
————
The three old friends met at the KFC restaurant in the software park.
When Lu Zhe and Luo Qiu went in, Shen Leyou was already waiting there. He hadn't ordered anything to eat; there was only a glass of iced cola on the table.
After his two old friends sat down opposite him, Shen Leyou immediately said, "Brothers, I feel like I'm about to break the law!"
Luo Qiu was still completely bewildered: "What law did I break?"
Lu Zhe took out his phone, searched, and then read aloud: "Article 363 of the Criminal Law: Crime of producing, reproducing, publishing, selling, or disseminating obscene materials for profit. Anyone who, for profit, produces, reproduces, publishes, sells, or disseminates obscene materials shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention, or public surveillance, and shall also be fined..."
Shen Leyou interrupted seriously, "What if the situation is serious?"
Lu Zhe: "The sentence is imprisonment for not less than three years but not more than ten years, and a fine. In addition, if the circumstances are particularly serious, the sentence is imprisonment for not less than ten years or life imprisonment, and it seems that the property will also be confiscated."
Luo Qiu: "Wait, what exactly did Old Shen do wrong?!"
Lu Zhe couldn't help but laugh: "You're not listening carefully. Didn't I just read out the crime listed in this law? Producing or disseminating obscene materials for profit."
Luo Qiu's eyes widened: "Old Shen, what company are you involved with?"
Shen Leyou said with a pained expression, "I thought it was just a short video production job, but who knew that after I joined the company, they would tell me clearly that it was actually for making those kinds of films!"
Luo Qiu: "Isn't it illegal to film this kind of thing in China?"
Shen Leyou: "It's illegal, so even if they filmed it, they'd post it on an external website. The key point is, doing this kind of thing in China is just too risky. If I had known it would be like this, I definitely wouldn't have joined the company!"
Lu Zhe: "The person who recruited you definitely hinted at it, you just didn't understand."
Shen Leyou: "That boss did ask me if I had any overseas creative experience. I said I was studying and creating at the same time in Sakurajima... God knows how he interpreted that!"
Lu Zhe couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Shen Leyou slammed his hand on the table: "You're still laughing at me? Don't you have any sympathy at all?!"
Lu Zhe: "No, you just started today and ran away. You haven't even participated in the production or distribution work yet. Even if the police wanted to arrest you, they wouldn't, would they?"
"Who knows? I've already started working here..."
Shen Leyou stopped speaking before he could finish. At that moment, Luo Qiu suddenly grabbed his wrist with considerable force.
Luo Qiu asked, "Can you make an internal referral?"
"Internal referral... what...?" Shen Leyou suddenly realized, "No, what are you trying to do!"
Luo Qiu's eyes shone with longing: "I think this kind of career is worth a try."
Lu Zhe was stunned: "Wait, Lao Luo, you haven't been out of the hospital for long, do you have to go this far?"
Luo Qiu: "How can this be a game? This is a business! Okay, Lao Shen, could you send me some of your company's work first, so I can take a look?"
Shen Leyou hesitated and said, "I do have the work, and I've even downloaded it to my phone. I'm still wondering whether I should use it as evidence to confess..."
Luo Qiu: "What evidence? This is art! Stop talking, just send it to me, no, let me see your phone."
Shen Leyou: "You're not going to watch porn here, are you?"
Luo Qiu looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention, smiled and took out a pair of Bluetooth earphones from his coat pocket.
Lu Zhe: "You... are always ready?"
Shen Leyou sighed: "Alright, since you're so well-prepared, then do as you please."
Next, Shen Leyou found the videos on his phone, connected to Luo Qiu's Bluetooth headset, and handed the phone to him.
