Chapter 7: Chapter 5 What on Earth Is Said?
Arriving at the interview location, it was a large hall with a total of three interviewers, two sitting in the front and another standing at the door—all unmistakably beautiful women.
Interviews were conducted one by one, while the others waited where they were.
Before this, applicants had to submit their resumes to the interviewer stationed at the door. Only after her preliminary selection, the resumes would be handed up, qualifying for the next round of interviews.
"Sir, your resume, please."
When it was Su Chen's turn, Su Chen was dumbfounded. Where would he have a resume?
The recruitment sign didn't mention a resume was needed.
"Uhm, I don't have a resume…" Su Chen scratched his head.
"Without a resume, you'll need to prepare one before coming back," said Wang Yue very politely, but in her mind, she had already dismissed Su Chen. How could someone unaware of such a basic thing as preparing a resume for a job application possibly join Yimena?
"Beauty, please give me a chance. It's my first time interviewing, and I didn't know I needed a resume. You're so pretty, and I can tell you have a kind heart, so please make an exception for me," Su Chen said with an ingratiating smile.
Although pleased by the compliment, Wang Yue knew that rules were rules and they couldn't be broken.
"I'm sorry, sir, we really can't…"
Just then, a commotion arose.
A middle-aged man in a yellow suit, slightly overweight, burst in panting, and none of the three sisters could stop him.
"Isn't that General Manager Li from Adidas? What's happened to him?"
The commotion outside startled all three interviewers, prompting them to come out.
Seeing the long-haired woman with gold-rimmed glasses, the middle-aged fatty immediately rushed over.
"General Manager Li, what are you doing?" Huang Yilin was startled and quickly stepped back.
"Minister Huang, you must save me…" Upon seeing Huang Yilin, the middle-aged man looked like he had found his last lifeline, his voice choked with sobs and tears.
Upon hearing Li Dahua's words, all four beautiful interviewers frowned, visibly troubled.
This was a situation they had not encountered before, unsure of how to handle it.
It turned out, Li Dahua was caught messing around outside by the police, faced with fifteen days of detention, and the notice had been sent to his wife.
It wasn't their concern, but Li Dahua was a major client of Yimena. Ignoring it didn't seem right, but interviews were still ongoing.
After some thought, Huang Yilin said, "Let's deal with General Manager Li's issue first. Those who have submitted their resumes, please stay; those who have not, please go back for now."
"What? Go back? We've been waiting for over two hours!"
"Exactly, are we being toyed with?"
"…"
Huang Yilin's words immediately caused dissatisfaction among many.
"We're really sorry, but we have urgent matters to deal with. Our apologies to everyone," Huang Yilin said to everyone, including Su Chen.
With no other choice, the people who had been waiting for hours could only leave. After all, they didn't dare to offend anyone too much—in case they might interview again in the future.
But how could this be resolved? Li Dahua's wife was notoriously tempestuous. Knowing that her husband was fooling around outside, wouldn't she tear the sky open?
The four interviewers racked their brains, but couldn't find a solution.
"Beauties, if I can help General Manager Li out of his trouble, could you give me a chance to go inside for the interview?" Just as everyone was about to leave disheartened, Su Chen suddenly spoke up.
All four beauties, including Li Dahua, turned to look at Su Chen.
"If you can really solve this, I will let you in for the interview," Huang Yilin said after contemplating for a moment.
Although Su Chen's appearance was very much at odds with the recruitment standards of Yimena, there were no other options at the moment.
Anyway, it was just giving him a chance to interview. Whether he could succeed in the interview was still up to her.
As for General Manager Li's issue, it needed to be resolved immediately.
No, not just immediately, but right away.
Because at that moment, a distinguished lady in a white dress, her hair pinned atop her head, strode over with seven or eight bodyguards looking fiercely determined.
Upon seeing the distinguished lady, Li Dahua was as if he had seen a ghost, his legs went weak, and he almost knelt down.
"Li Dahua, why don't you keep running? If I don't wreck you today, my surname isn't Zhu!" The distinguished lady rolled up her sleeves, then turned to her bodyguards and said, "What are you waiting for? Get moving!"
"Stop!" Just as Li Dahua was about to meet his Destruction at the hands of the others, a low shout echoed.
Then, a languid figure walked toward the distinguished lady.
"Sister-in-law, right?"
"Who do you think you are? You think you can call me sister-in-law?" The distinguished lady glanced at Su Chen disdainfully, full of arrogance.
"Oh, I'm just a small employee of Yimena. Regarding General Manager Li's matter, I must have a word with sister-in-law. After I'm finished, if you still feel unsatisfied, you can do whatever you want with General Manager Li,"
"Oh, then let's hear it!" The distinguished lady snorted coldly.
"Actually, the situation is like this…" Su Chen walked up beside the distinguished lady and whispered in her ear.
A few minutes later.
"I really appreciate the help, young man. Thank you. When you have time, come visit our company," the distinguished lady kept thanking Su Chen, then gave Li Dahua, who was still in a daze, a stern look and said, "You damn fool, had you explained it to me earlier, all this misunderstanding could have been avoided. Now come home with me."
Li Dahua was genuinely dumbfounded.
What the hell was happening?
She forgave him just like that?
But whatever the situation, his wife forgiving him was undoubtedly a great turn of events.
Soon, the distinguished lady left Yimena with Li Dahua and the entourage of bodyguards.
Not only Li Dahua but also the four interviewers from sales were baffled.
Dealing with a situation like Li Dahua's was rare for them, toughest to handle, but with just a few words, Su Chen had resolved it?
"Handsome, how did you do it?" Wang Yue, responsible for collecting resumes, asked full of curiosity.
"Beauties, do your words count? I solved the issue, so let me go in for the interview," Su Chen did not answer Wang Yue's question, but instead asked with a grin.
"Of course they count," Huang Yilin nodded.
A large company like this naturally wouldn't go back on its word, and besides, she was eager to know what exactly Su Chen had said to Li Dahua's wife.
"Alright, the quota for today's interviews is full, you all can go back," Huang Yilin told the other applicants who had not yet submitted their resumes.
Others had thought with the issue resolved they would have a chance, but upon hearing Huang Yilin's words, their spirits immediately sagged.
Just as Su Chen was about to go inside, a tall, skinny individual suddenly spoke up loudly, "Wait! If I'm not mistaken, Yimena Company has educational requirements for its employees, don't they? Only those from key domestic universities and above are qualified to join. I wonder which university this brother graduated from?"
