Chapter 215: A True Male God Shines Bright
by xennovelIt was a cool weekend morning in Linchuan, and under the spell of spring fatigue, most students would choose to sleep in and indulge in a lazy morning.
But the hardworking laborers had already started their day and gotten to work.
Because only children get to choose, while adults have no choice.
At that moment, a fleet of container trucks departed from the Shengshi Advertising Factory and arrived at the University of Technology. After presenting their documents, they entered the school and finally reached the commercial pedestrian street on the main road of the campus.
The old master in charge of the installation jumped out of the truck, casually lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and looked around.
He determined the location and visually measured the distance.
The old master waved his hand and urged the workers to start working quickly.
Soon, a huge campus belle ranking board was carried to a spot ten meters away from Xitian, that is, next to the walkway between the commercial street and the dormitory building. It was erected and installed with a base, and they reinforced it with two iron wires to ensure it wouldn’t be blown down by the wind.
In addition, various standing signs, banners, and flags were also hung up one after another.
Within just half an hour, the busiest spots at the University of Technology were filled with Zhihu logos, slogans for the campus belle contest, and Xitian’s marketing advertisements.
The atmosphere created was just like the Wanzhong Mall during its New Year’s promotions.
“It’s done, let’s go!”
The old master didn’t waste any words. He waved for the workers to get in the truck, then took the remaining materials and drove along Xinghong Avenue to the Normal University, where he repeated the same process as before.
By the time all the materials were in place, Dong Wenhao had already arrived at the Normal University with two assistants and met with Director Li.
According to the original plan, they conducted interviews for part-time college students in a classroom that had been prepared in advance.
The work-study program was a booster and protective umbrella for Zhihu and the group-buy project. Without this title, Jiang Qin’s promotion plan might have taken a lot of unnecessary time.
At the same time, Jiang Qin didn’t want the work-study program to be just a “useful” title, but actually hoped to carry out this matter in a down-to-earth manner.
On one hand, promoting the aid program would greatly benefit the project’s credibility.
On the other hand, people from poor families indeed possess certain good qualities of being able to endure hardship and work diligently.
“Greetings to the leaders and teachers, I am number 5, my name is Dai Yu.”
“My name is Zeng Yong…”
“Hello teachers, I am Bai Hanghang…”
Dong Wenhao had already experienced this kind of scene several times. After all, the two supervisors at the University of Science and Technology were selected by him. Plus, he had experience interviewing club members in the Literature Society, so he had the entire process well in hand.
Which students were suitable, which students were unsuitable, which students could be cultivated, and which students required special attention.
Old Dong only needed a few simple questions to distinguish everything clearly, then he would make a decisive and professional mark with the tip of his pen.
Director Li sat beside him. At first, he couldn’t help interjecting a few words, but then he found it useless, so he contentedly played the role of a mascot, only sitting up straight when the photographer took photos.
This made him sigh with emotion that the team brought out by Jiang Qin indeed had a sharp and straightforward style that struck directly at the heart of the target.
Their Normal University also had its own entrepreneurial team, but compared to this batch of people from Linchuan University, they were really just playing games.
But they were all college students, so where exactly was the difference?
It couldn’t be said that students from Linchuan University had better grades, so they were better than students from second-tier colleges at everything, right? There was no scientific basis for that.
“Why wasn’t that person just now kept? He had a lot of part-time experience.”
“Before coming, our boss said that we should be cautious of those who are too slick in their words, have too many ideas, and deliberately try to get close. He hit all the marks, so we can’t keep him.”
“Isn’t that type of person more suitable for project promotion?”
“The boss has never been wrong, so we don’t need to consider other possibilities. We just need to complete the goal.”
After hearing this, Director Li pursed his lips and suddenly understood the difference between their school’s entrepreneurial team and Jiang Qin’s entrepreneurial team.
Recruiting a group of employees is not difficult as long as you have money, but to make employees completely trust you and handle matters according to your specified rules, that takes great skill.
That Jiang Qin is so young, yet his methods are truly endless.
Just like a few days ago, before he could even figure out what was going on, he inexplicably became an instructor.
Uncanny, it’s really fucking uncanny.
At the same time as the Normal University was interviewing part-time college students, the interviews at the University of Technology were also about to begin.
In the spacious corridor, a large group of students holding information forms entered the venue one after another, gradually filling up the front of the podium. It wasn’t because the college students were actively enthusiastic, but mainly because they were given too much.
“Hello interviewers, I am number 1, my name is Luo Jianwei.”
“My name is Xiao Yuzhen.”
“Hello teachers, hello seniors, I am Chen Anhua…”
Seeing batch after batch of college students being interviewed, Lai Cunqing couldn’t help but start feeling nervous.
Although he had a relatively steady personality, sitting together with Director Sun to interview others still made him feel a lack of confidence.
Ding Qiaona beside him was quick-witted and had strong social skills, but in this kind of formal occasion, she was also a bit flustered, so she silently scored throughout the process without speaking.
“Hello teachers, hello seniors, I am number 13, Gu Tiantian.”
“Please introduce yourself first.”
Gu Tiantian, who had her hair tied in a ponytail, pursed her lips and began to introduce herself.
Although she and Yu Shasha were roommates, Yu Shasha had never mentioned that Zhihu and the group-buy project belonged to Jiang Qin, so she didn’t know about this matter.
Gu Tiantian’s family circumstances were indeed average, but not to the point of being impoverished. The main reason she came to interview for the part-time position was that she was attracted by the salary and benefits, wanting to earn some living expenses to improve her quality of life.
The school did not issue any documents mandating that students must meet certain poverty conditions to participate in the work-study program interviews, so there were quite a few others who had the same idea as her.
For example, her roommates Chen Wenfang and Tang Li were also attracted by the salary and were lining up to prepare for the interview.
After Gu Tiantian finished her self-introduction, Lai Cunqing coughed and asked, “Have you had any part-time experience before?”
“I…”
Just as she started to speak, the classroom door was suddenly pushed open. The door hinge, which hadn’t been maintained for years, made a creaking sound, instantly attracting everyone’s attention.
Gu Tiantian was slightly startled. She turned her head to look in the direction of the door and saw Jiang Qin walking in expressionlessly.
Isn’t this Yu Shasha’s dream guy? Can students from Linchuan University also work part-time at the University of Technology?
“Hey, look, it’s Yu Shasha’s dream guy!”
“It really is him. Why did he come?”
“Is he also here to interview? But he’s not from our school, and he’s so rich, he shouldn’t need to work part-time, right?”
Tang Li and Chen Wenfang were just discussing this when they suddenly saw Lai Cunqing and Ding Qiaona stand up, making way for the middle position.
Jiang Qin stepped forward, sat down in the main interviewer’s seat, and casually picked up the pen on the table.
Actually, he had originally planned to let the two teams handle it on their own today, but considering that Lai Cunqing had never conducted interviews before, he still came over.
“You’re Gu Tiantian, right? Have you done any part-time work before?”
“No… I haven’t.” Gu Tiantian answered honestly.
Jiang Qin drew a circle on the interview form as if he didn’t know her. “If you really want to work part-time, then go gain some experience in the marketing team first.”
“What does the marketing team do?” Gu Tiantian asked. She had originally wanted to join the content team.
“The work of the marketing team is to distribute flyers in the early stage of promotion, and in the later stage, to visit merchants and sign collaborations. Can you accept that?”
“Distributing flyers in the school?”
“Yes, for all those without relevant experience who still want to work part-time, it’s necessary to train in the marketing team. Our supervisor from the University of Science and Technology also went through this.”
Lai Cunqing nodded. “I ran the marketing team for a month back then before I finally entered the technical department.”
“You can consider it.” Jiang Qin looked at Gu Tiantian.
Having inexperienced personnel train in the marketing team was the best way to see their character and abilities because if they lacked patience or were too flighty, they basically wouldn’t be able to endure this stage.
It was precisely because this step could screen out those who sincerely wanted to follow the project that Jiang Qin would extend it to the University of Technology and the Normal University.
But to be honest, it was very difficult for female college students these days to accept a job like distributing flyers.
After all, you have to show your face, and it’s at your own school. Anyone would feel embarrassed.
But strangely, Gu Tiantian actually nodded and agreed. Even Tang Li and Chen Wenfang, who were interviewing later, broke their usual habits and were willing to join the marketing team to distribute flyers.
“Lai, Qiaona, go train the people selected for the marketing team. Start distributing flyers this afternoon.”
“Okay, boss.”
Jiang Qin nodded, then invited Sun Chunming to go out for a meal. Although he didn’t say a word the entire time, just being able to sit here was already giving a lot of face.
Thus, only Lai Cunqing and the few inexperienced newcomers who had just been selected for the marketing team were left in the classroom.
“S-supervisor Lai, may I ask if that person just now is your boss?”
Gu Tiantian, Tang Li, and Chen Wenfang all crowded over.
Lai Cunqing nodded. “What’s the matter?”
“The campus belle contests at Linchuan University and the University of Science and Technology were all started by him?”
“Yeah, our boss started from scratch. He built up everything with his own hands. As long as you work diligently, the boss won’t treat you unfairly.”
Lai Cunqing had thought they felt Jiang Qin looked too young and were a bit unsure, because he also had this thought during the interview, so he kindly reassured them with a few words.
But Gu Tiantian and the others didn’t hear the latter part. They just looked at each other for a long time.
“So he turned out to be the boss of Zhihu and the group-buy project.”
Tang Li couldn’t help but exclaim, “Don’t forget, even Xitian is his!”
After hearing this, Chen Wenfang took a deep breath. “I finally understand why Yu Shasha said he’s a dream guy who shines.”
“As soon as he walked in, those two supervisors immediately got up to give him their seats. I was struck by how handsome he is!”
“Shasha really has good taste…”
Hearing this, Gu Tiantian couldn’t help pursing her lips, feeling a sudden pounding sensation in her heart.
Actually, she’d had this feeling since the day Xitian opened for business, but this time it suddenly became much more noticeable.
I’m going to eat some fish tonight, otherwise I won’t get to eat it later. I’ll cry to death.
