Chapter 69: Chapter 63 Give you a word, Roll (Looking for recommendation!)_1
As soon as the afternoon shift began, Qi Yan called over a few idle workers from the factory to guide and maintain order, and also to clean the conference room and corridor. After all, they hadn’t been used for more than a month and had gathered some dust.
The previous boss had essentially left everything behind, so all the basic office equipment was present, and each of the luxurious offices even had computers. They just weren’t sure whether the internet was no longer active or there was a connection problem of sorts, but they couldn’t get online.
This was good in a way.
It saved them from having to buy computers. After all, they needed computers for checking emails and managing stocks. It would be too much trouble to manually place orders at the securities company.
Tang Qing and Wang Yan were also busy. Tang Qing indulged himself by choosing the largest office. Qi Yan didn’t want to be outdone and chose one as well. With only one office left, it was obviously reserved for the future general manager.
As for the other vice president.
Well, he would have to make do for now.
Looking at the new company’s base, the employees were overjoyed. Compared to the cramped office environment of the previous factory, this place actually felt like a proper office. Moreover, they heard that the company would be reclaiming some powers and merging some departments, which made everyone more enthusiastic.
These people were in charge of procurement and sales. The factory had been downsizing, so they had a lot of downtime. Although adjusting to new owners was a bit challenging, it was clear that these new owners had more sturdiness.
At two o’clock in the afternoon.
The first batch of general and deputy manager interviewees arrived.
There were not many applicants for these two positions, just five. There were two general manager applicants, which meant one of the two should get the job. However, Tang Qing did not think this way.
He couldn’t make a rash decision when it came to the general manager of his own company. The person had to be competent enough to handle the initial development of the company and be creative. If they weren’t up to par in the later stages, they could always be trained. If none of the current applicants were suitable, he’d rather leave the position vacant and wait for the next batch.
Tang Qing stood near his office window, watching several well-dressed men in suits entering one after the other. They appeared to have different ages, and two of them had even arrived in expensive cars, indicating they had either capability or wealth.
But this didn’t seem like a problem to him. After all, a general manager needs capability, and the ability to afford a car obviously depends on their ability to earn money. If you’ve been working for many years and still can’t afford a car, it makes it hard to believe how competent you are.
In his past life, he had always been the one getting interviewed. Now that he was interviewing others for the first time in this life, Tang Qing felt quite satisfied.
"Boss Tang, the five applicants have arrived," one employee knocked and spoke. Tang Qing’s door was left open; it had been a while since anyone came in, so the room needed ventilation.
"Alright, let’s interview the general manager’s candidates together in the conference room. Sister Yan and I will come over in a moment," Tang Qing turned and spoke. Qi Yan was still cleaning her office while Tang Qing was waiting for Qi Yan to finish tidying up and then do the same for him.
It would be great if his cousin was here; she loved tidying up houses the most.
Instantly, Tang Qing shook his head.
Feeling guilty for having such a ’wicked’ thought. 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝒐𝒎
"Yes, Boss Tang."
...
Later.
Tang Qing and Qi Yan arrived at the conference room. He could only utter ’real extravagance’. True to its work in high-end decoration, for a decoration company of just several dozens of employees, not many being office staff, the office was well-decorated. Currently, the conference room that was spacious enough to host twenty people had two men already waiting there.
When the two interviewees saw Qi Yan walk through the door, they were both stunned by her. Nobody really paid attention to Tang Qing, first because of his exceedingly youthful appearance and second because Qi Yan was their contact. They both assumed that Tang Qing was just here to assist.
The moment they entered, one of the young interviewees quickly approached Qi Yan with a bright smile and extended his hand, "Miss Qi, hello, my name is Chu Tianqi. It is a pleasure to meet you."
He totally ignored Tang Qing who had entered first.
"Yes, hello, please take a seat," Qi Yan frowned slightly as she shook his hand and quickly released it, able to perceive the man’s true intentions. Over the phone interview, she had already noticed that this man was very smooth-talking. That wasn’t a problem, as affability was a quality needed in a manager. But he was not only smooth-talking but also had no sense of propriety.
"Yes, from the moment I heard your voice, I knew you were a beauty. Meeting you today confirms this," Chu Tianqi quickly deployed his ultimate move: praise. From his point of view, no woman would rebuff a man who complimented her beauty.
"Hmm," Qi Yan nodded and ignored Chu Tianqi, who hadn’t gone back to his seat. She walked directly into the room. As for Tang Qing, he just chuckled and followed, knowing that once a person is excellent, they will have pursuers. This was normal, but it was also about knowing when and where to show it.
His impression of Chu Tianqi fell drastically. He had no discernment, he didn’t stay grounded. As for being lustful, it didn’t really matter. Tang Qing would find it harder to believe if a man wasn’t.
Seeing that Qi Yan hadn’t reacted to him, Chu Tianqi laughed awkwardly and returned to his seat. He was highly educated and well-experienced, and hence, recommended by a headhunter. He had the psychological quality for the situation. As for the other applicant, he just stood up, nodded, and casually greeted them. In comparison, he seemed much more steady.
Tang Qing sat in the main seat and started reviewing the resumes in front of him.
