The wine that night was not in vain. Two days later, Shen Kuo received a call from Director Fang, asking him to come to the company immediately for the final interview.
If you pass this interview, you will get the one hundred yuan an hour job.
Zhong Kai lent Shen Kuo his only formal suit. Zhong Kai looked thinner in that suit, but Shen Kuo looked very well-proportioned in it, mainly because of his muscular figure, no matter what clothes he wore, he would have temperament.
Zhong Kai looked at Shen Kuo's appearance in formal attire, and he looked quite stylish, and sighed: "Oh, boy, let me figure it out, you have the face of a big boss!"
Shen Kuo rolled his eyes.
"Look, look, this little eye rolls... Everyone is drunk and I am alone awake to the heroic spirit..."
Shen Kuo kicked him, but Zhong Kai avoided it swiftly. When the two were fighting, someone beside him let out a soft snort—
"Native goods."
Zhong Kai looked at him and found that the man was wearing narrow-waisted flared jeans, a striped floral shirt with a leather jacket, and a middle-parted hairstyle that was very popular back then.
This kind of dress can be regarded as popular in the north and south of the country back then, and it can be regarded as the standard equipment of "hipsters".
Although Zhong Kai admired his attire, he couldn't tolerate his casual slander, and shouted: "Brother, be careful with your mouth."
The bell-bottomed boy glanced at Shen Kuo, with a contemptuous and contemptuous expression: "Please, what age is this, and you still wear such an old-fashioned suit."
Zhong Kai was not convinced, and said: "Although this suit is old-fashioned, it is still a formal suit. What's wrong with wearing it for an interview? I think you will definitely be eliminated in this suit."
The man in bell-bottom pants sneered: "Before you come to the interview, at least you should know about Meng's corporate culture, okay? Their 'Proud Wolf' mainly focuses on casual men's clothing for young people. The clothes I wear just cater to their clothing product concept. It's you guys who are dressed like hotel lobby managers, so it's no wonder you were chosen!"
"You you you... you are too much! What's wrong with the lobby manager, you young people, I have seen a lot, I don't know the heights of heaven and earth..."
Zhong Kai wanted to argue with him, but Shen Kuo grabbed him by the collar.
He said in a deep voice: "The company of others, don't mess around."
Shen Kuo has always been a man who knows how to restrain and restrain himself, and will not easily play tricks on others.
"Hmph, brat, you're in luck."
Soon, Director Fang came in through the gate, accompanied by a tall lady in a one-line skirt, who was talking on the phone with a Motorola mobile phone.
Shen Kuo knew that this was Meng Zhining, the president of the Meng Group.
Director Fang saw these young people standing at the door for interviews, and quickly waved to them to follow.
Meng Zhining got into the elevator, Shen Kuo and the others went in immediately, stood behind her, and went upstairs with her.
Director Fang whispered to her: "These boys are the models who came to interview the 'Proud Wolf' project exhibition show. I will take them to the living room to wait for you later..."
Before he finished speaking, Meng Zhining suddenly raised his hand to signal him not to make noise.
She's talking on the phone—
"What does a little girl know? Her mother must have instigated this matter. That woman... actually put her mind on my son and used such indecent tricks."
"Oh, what do I care about? If I do, your father may love his wife so much."
"Boy, it's nothing to suffer a little grievance. A man should be able to bend and stretch. Tell your brother and let him endure it until the future."
…
After getting out of the elevator, Meng Zhining went to the office first, while Director Fang took a few boys to the meeting hall.
Zhong Kai whispered to Shen Kuo: "That is the boss of the Meng Corporation, Meng Zhining. Hearing her speech just now, it is not surprising that she can be the leader of the group."
Shen Kuo responded lightly and didn't say much. He never discussed others behind his back, whether it was good or bad.
Ten minutes later, Meng Zhining came out of the office, put on a small formal suit, and came to the living room.
Several boys immediately stood up to meet her, Shen Kuo stood first, and Meng Zhining stared at him for a long time.
It's Meng Zhining who works in the clothing industry, and has seen many handsome guys of various types for more than ten years, including many endorsement stars, but Shen Kuo's good looks can be regarded as the best of the best.
With his appearance, let alone Qin Yuxiao as a backdrop, it would not be a problem for him to endorse the entire brand.
After seeing Shen Kuo, it seems boring to look at the boys behind.
When she saw the boy in flared trousers casual clothes, she frowned, turned her head and said directly to the director, "Let this person go."
The bell-bottomed boy hadn't reacted yet, and asked, "I came all the way here, why did you let me go!"
Meng Zhining said, "I saw you, what are you wearing?"
"West, suit."
"Then what are you wearing when you see me?"
The bell-bottom boy was speechless: "I... I thought..."
He thought that he knew enough about Meng's corporate culture, after all, it was a brand that focused on young and flamboyant personality.
Meng Zhining said coldly: "You don't even have basic manners. I can take it as that you don't care about our interview. If that's the case, then I don't want to hire you either. Let's go."
The boy in bell-bottom pants had nothing to say, he glanced at Shen Kuo angrily, and left unwillingly.
Shen Kuo's expression was flat and he didn't gloat.
The boys in casual clothes were also a little uneasy, but fortunately Meng Zhining didn't bother with them. Although they were dressed in casual clothes, they were not as out of the ordinary as the boys in bell-bottom pants.
Meng Zhining glanced at Shen Kuo approvingly, and asked them bluntly, "Why do you want to interview models."
Their answers all said that they want to exercise and exercise themselves. This is a good opportunity, and some even said that they want to work in the Meng Group...
When Shen Kuo said that it was only for the salary of 100 yuan an hour, they all showed contemptuous expressions on their faces.
Yeah, for the money, how cheesy it is.
However, Meng Zhining admired Shen Kuo's honesty. Those who said they wanted to improve themselves, when they did this job, they would only immediately think about whether this job would help them. I will do what I do well.
So Meng Zhining eliminated some more people, and finally only five were left, and Shen Kuo was among them.
"The 'Proud Wolf' new product launch show will be in two weeks. In these two weeks, I have to come here to practice every day, so I won't find anyone."
Meng Zhining spoke crisply, and didn't delay after finishing speaking, but before leaving, the other assistant said, "Add money to Shen Kuo, three hundred and one hour, and then let him take the lead and follow behind Qin Yuxiao."
"Yes."
After Meng Zhining left, Assistant Fang excitedly said to Shen Kuo: "Yes, young man, our Mr. Meng's eyes are higher than the top, and you can be appreciated by her. You have a bright future!"
Shen Kuo said calmly and politely: "It all depends on Director Fang's promotion."
Director Fang saw that he behaved in a thoughtful manner, not at all arrogant and self-righteous like children of this age, he smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
In the future, this kid might become a master.
On the way back, Zhong Kai kept nagging Shen Kuo: "This time, I really made a lot of money, 300 an hour, my God! This is not the most explosive, Meng Zhining actually let you take the lead, second only to the big star Qin Yuxiao, do you know what this means, when the TV commercial is aired, you will show your face in front of the people of the whole country!"
Shen Kuo was not interested in this, and he didn't care if he showed his face or not, he just hoped that the other party would not default on wages and pay by the day.
The two turned into the alley and walked to the door of Shen Kuo's house, only to see a little girl in a light yellow dress standing furtively by the square window, looking into the dark window.
Zhong Kai smiled and left: "Then I will leave first."
"Um."
Shen Kuo pursed his lips slightly, walked straight to Lu Yan's side, and looked into the room with her—
"What are you looking at."
Lu Yan was taken aback, screamed "Ah", and stepped back: "Why are you coming out to scare people!"
"You secretly peeped by my window and said I was scary?"
"It's not peeping!"
"Then why don't you just knock on the door and enter the house?"
"I'm afraid you're not at home. If Uncle Shen is sleeping, I'm sorry to wake you up."
Shen Kuo likes her well-behaved and sensible, not all rich girls are spoiled and domineering, many times, these rich girls who are raised in the warm and generous soil don't know sorrow, and they are extraordinarily beautiful and harmless.
He didn't know why he liked it like this, but he did.
Maybe you are deeply in the mud, so you yearn for the beauty.
He entered the house and turned on all the lights to expel the cold and damp from the house.
"My dad should still be undergoing a re-examination in the hospital, let's go in and sit down."
Lu Yan entered the room and stood against the wall.
Shen Kuo took his own cup from the cabinet, scrubbed it by the sink for three minutes, poured water and handed it to Lu Yan.
In this scorching hot summer, Lu Yan was so thirsty, her lips were dry and peeled, she grabbed the water glass and took a sip.
"Slow down." Seeing her reincarnated like a thirsty ghost, Shen Kuo felt a little distressed, and frowned, "Who told you to come here at noon."
"Sleep late, it's noon when you wake up."
Lu Yan smiled sheepishly, put down the water glass, and said, "I'll get the bicycle, and I'll talk to you about a big... big business."
The last time she took the drunk Shen Kuo home, the chain of the bicycle broke on the way, so she could only let him sit in the back seat, and pushed him back, and the bicycle was left at Shen Kuo's house.
Shen Kuo went into the inner room and pushed out the pink bicycle.
"Why put it in the house, it's so inconvenient in such a narrow room, just put it in the doorway."
Shen Kuo said lightly: "There are many children outside, and they will get dirty."
"Oh."
Lu Yan saw that the car chain had been repaired and oiled, and the car body had been wiped clean, giving it a brand new look.
She was pleasantly surprised: "Putting it here with you is equivalent to doing a major maintenance. After that, I will often drop the chain at your door or something."
"If you like, you can come anytime, and I'll help you...maintain the car."
When Shen Kuo said this, he moved his eyes down and didn't look at her. The moist tone sounded... gentle, like the feeling of water mist from a humidifier hitting his face.
Lu Yan looked at him in surprise, and couldn't believe that this sharp-edged young man with thorns all over his body would say such a thing.
She is not used to it.
"Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden." Lu Yan patted his lower back and joked, "It's not like you."
"What should I look like?"
Lu Yan thought for a while: "You should say fiercely, if you come here uninvited, I will throw you out with your car."
Shen Kuo licked her thin lips, picked up the water glass she had used, and drank the remaining water in it.
"If you like, I can also throw you out with the car now."
Lu Yan stepped back and looked at him defensively.
There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
It's rare to see such a sincere and pure smile on his face, it's not for pandering or ridicule, but for genuine happiness.
"I found that you look really good when you smile."
As if discovering a new continent, Lu Yan walked over and patted his cheek: "You, that's how it should be, less calculating and more sincere, gradually everyone will like you and you will have more friends. "
Shen Kuo let her pinch his face and said, "I don't need too many friends."
"Wrong!" Lu Yan said righteously: "My father taught me that you cannot do business without friends. If you want to be successful and earn a lot of money, you need friends who can help you!"
"As you said, those are wine and meat friends."
"Of course, there are a lot of friends in the business world, and there are also friends who sincerely help you. These sincere friends will become your strongest help and most reliable support in the future."
Shen Kuo fell silent after listening to Lu Yan's words.
This time, if it hadn't been for Zhong Kai to help him connect, it would be impossible for him to earn Meng's huge hourly salary.
He patted Lu Yan's head casually: "You are young, but you have a lot of ideas."
"This is the big business I want to discuss with you." Lu Yan said to him mysteriously: "Come on, I'll treat you to dinner, let's sit down and talk slowly."
Shen Kuo touched his trouser bag, which contained the training subsidy just issued by the Meng family today, and he felt confident.
He took off the black peaked cap hanging on the wall, and pushed the cart out the door.
Seeing him riding her bicycle so consciously, Lu Yan said, "Hey, it's not kind to you to ride a bicycle while I walk."
Shen Kuo turned his head, the brightest sunlight at noon swept his face, his dark brown pupils showed some enthusiasm—
"Get in the car, I'll take you."
Lu Yan walked up to him: "Really, are you so kind?"
"Um."
"You won't push me halfway into the ditch, will you?"
"..."
Shen Kuo took off his peaked cap, put it on her small head, and lowered the brim: "Stop talking nonsense."
