Fantasy Westward Journey: Return to 2005

Chapter 2085 Hellish Interview, Black-Faced Queen!

But even though he had been very careful in everything he did.

However, as he learned more about the club and Fang Yun himself, he realized that...

His despair only deepened!

In his view, the Cloud Club was a gathering place for the most outstanding people in the Dream World.

You might be a gem in the outside world.

But here, it's resplendent in gold!

He does have some skills, especially in estimating prices.

He even received praise from everyone, including top experts like Fang Yunboluo, after he showed off his skills.

At the time, he was actually a little proud of himself.

But then Qiancheng appeared before him in her terrifyingly tall 160cm graduation outfit.

His smugness vanished in an instant!

He understood that he and the other person were not even from the same plane of existence.

It could even be said that it wasn't just Fang Yun.

Even the likes downstairs, Pineapple A-Bai, could completely outclass him in terms of fame, strength, and everything else!

Therefore.

After being relentlessly attacked and finally facing reality, the mantis shrimp was actually prepared for a day trip to Beijing.

The result was completely unexpected.

Just when he thought he had virtually no chance of staying.

Fang Yun suddenly told him that she was going to sign him to a job?

In his eyes, this wasn't just a windfall, it was a goldmine!

"What, you don't want to stay?"

After I nodded, the other person suddenly fell silent and didn't say anything for a long time.

Fang Yun frowned slightly and asked.

"Stay! I want to stay, I really want to stay!"

Upon hearing this, the mantis shrimp, who had been lost in thought due to its great surprise, instantly snapped back to reality.

Then I saw him nodding his head like he was pounding garlic, afraid that if he was too slow, he would miss this opportunity that might only come once in a lifetime!

"Yes, you can stay if you want."

Seeing the other person nodding vigorously, Fang Yun realized she had misunderstood, so she continued, "I saw you carrying a bag at the door just now? Where's your suitcase? Did you bring it?"

"I didn't bring a suitcase; all my belongings are in my bag!"

Upon hearing this, although he didn't know why Fang Yun suddenly asked this, Pipi Shrimp immediately answered.

Shandong Province is not too far from the capital.

Moreover, his trip to the capital was only at Fang Yun's invitation.

In his opinion.

The fact that a big shot like Fang Yun invited me to the capital was most likely just a spur-of-the-moment decision; he probably just wanted to meet my in-game partner.

Therefore.

Pipi Shrimp himself never thought he would stay in Beijing for more than a few days, so he simply brought a change of clothes and a bag and came.

But now it seems that he... was unprepared?

"You have a big heart."

He learned that the other party had only brought a bag when they came to the capital to find him.

Fang Yun smiled helplessly, but then thought about it again and realized that there was nothing wrong with what the other party was doing.

He himself had made up his mind from the beginning that if the other party performed well enough, he would keep them.

But the other party doesn't know that.

People probably think they'll only stay in the capital for two or three days at most before going back.

In this situation, especially for a single young person.

Who would be so bored as to carry a suitcase and create unnecessary trouble for themselves?

"It's okay if you didn't bring any luggage. After you sign the contract, I'll have the finance department prepay you one month's salary. Then you can just buy whatever you need."

Ignoring these minor details, Fang Yun thought for a moment and then asked, "Also, did you tell your family about coming to the capital? If you stay in the capital, will they object?"

This is a question that Fang Yun asks every employee during interviews.

In his past life, he had seen far too many shady studios.

These studios have no contracts and no age requirements; they even dare to hire junior high school students as young as thirteen or fourteen.

After recruiting a bunch of minors.

These studios not only kept pressing for lower salaries, but also acted like they had nothing to lose when the parents of the other party came to them, which was a clear case of "you do what you do, I do what you do."

This chaotic situation lasted for a long time and directly or indirectly harmed many young people.

So after being reborn and personally establishing the Cloud Club as his base.

Fang Yun pays special attention to salary, employee contracts, and benefits. He also conducts background checks on the family background of each prospective employee to avoid unnecessary disputes.

What? You're asking if A-Bai was also a minor when he started working?

In fact, although Abai was with the club at the time, his contract was held by his parents.

Furthermore, to avoid any disputes, Fang Yun specially took Abai back to his hometown to meet with his parents in person and discuss various matters in detail, ultimately signing a very detailed contract.

Having lived two lives, Fang Yun knew very well that he absolutely could not afford to make a mistake over something trivial.

He will resolutely stop behaviors such as employing minors and tax evasion, and he will not back down no matter what anyone says.

“I told them, and they agreed. Before I left, they repeatedly told me that if I could find a reliable job in Beijing, I should try to stay and not go back to staying at home all day.”

Pipi Shrimp had no idea what Fang Yun was thinking, and answered directly upon hearing this.

He is already an adult and will be turning 21 soon.

But this also became a major worry for his parents.

A young man who was about to turn 21 ended up staying at home all day, not looking for a girlfriend or making friends, and just sitting in front of the computer playing his stupid games.

All I knew was that he was making money by trading weapons in his fantasy world.

But in his parents' eyes, this was a typical case of someone who was not doing anything productive, and his future would be ruined sooner or later!

In other words, although he doesn't go out to work, he still has an income, and the income is not low in their small town.

This is the only way he can maintain a certain degree of harmony with his parents.

But you can tell from what his parents told him before he left home.

Even though he earns quite a bit while staying at home.

But his parents still hoped that he could find a proper job in Beijing and preferably stay there, which they considered the right path.

how to say……

This is probably what the generation gap is all about.

"Yes, I've already told my family."

He was certain that his family knew he had come to Beijing and that they supported him staying.

Fang Yun felt much more at ease, but still asked the other party to write down his parents' phone number, planning to call his family before signing the contract to make sure everything was in order.

The mantis shrimp seemed quite unfazed throughout.

In fact, you can tell from the little details of Fang Yun's interactions with him.

Although this guy acts somewhat awe-inspiring, he's probably actually quite cheerful.

The fact that he can stay at home for several years and still maintain this personality can only mean that his family atmosphere must be very good, and there is no situation where an internet-addicted teenager goes to a distant place without his parents' knowledge.

After a while.

Fang Yun brought the mantis shrimp to Su Jiu's office on the third floor.

Fang Yun left himself in the office to wait for Su Jiu's personal interview, while he went to the corridor and called Pipi Shrimp's father for a chat.

It was just as he expected.

The mantis shrimp's father was a very talkative middle-aged man.

Especially after learning that Fang Yun was originally from Zhongzhou but was now thriving in the capital, he kept saying that the two provinces were like one family, implying that—

My dear son, I'm entrusting this to you!

End the call with the father of the mantis shrimp.

Fang Yun stared at the phone in his hand, whose screen was still on, and suddenly couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

You can feel that expectation and care for your child even over the phone.

Fang Yun had never truly experienced this in either of his lives.

at the same time.

Through this phone call, he finally understood where the mantis shrimp's ability to speak human language to human language and ghost language to ghost language came from.

I didn’t think much more about it.

After communicating with the other party's family and confirming that everything was normal.

Fang Yun didn't rush downstairs. Instead, she went to the office opposite Sujiu and casually found a chair to sit down.

This office is almost a mirror image of the one in Sujiu.

This place was originally intended for Fang Yun's office, according to Su Jiu's plan.

But it's a pity.

From the time this office was renovated until now.

Several years passed.

Fang Yun has come here to work a handful of times.

Fortunately, Su Jiu is a clean freak. Even though Fang Yun rarely comes here, she still regularly arranges for someone to clean the place.

Otherwise, given how often he comes here, if he just walks in, doesn't look at anything, and sits down without even looking, he'll probably get covered in dust.

As for why Pipi Shrimp passed Fang Yun's interview...

But at this point, he was still kept in the office by Sujiu for a second round of interviews.

This is because Fang Yun had already made an agreement with Su Jiu that he could recruit the talent he wanted, but the person had to be personally interviewed by her before officially joining the company.

of course.

Up to now, every talent that Fang Yun has set his sights on has to make another trip to Sujiu's place.

But none of them have actually been stuck.

The purpose of Sujiu's request was actually quite simple.

She wasn't trying to annoy Fang Yun at all; she was more interested in playing the bad cop to prevent Fang Yun, this capricious guy, from talking nonsense and getting cocky before even starting the job.

Half an hour later.

As the door to Sujiu's office was slowly pushed open.

Hearing the commotion, Fang Yun put down what he was holding, walked out of his office, and looked up to find himself facing Pipi Shrimp, who looked terrified.

"Cheng...Brother Cheng!"

Upon seeing Fang Yun, Pipi Shrimp, who was wiping sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, paused for a moment before immediately greeting him.

"How did it go? Did you pass the interview?"

Nodding, I looked at the mantis shrimp, who seemed to have survived a disaster.

Although Fang Yun knew in his heart what the other party had probably gone through, he still asked out of habit.

"It's approved! It's approved!"

He nodded listlessly; at this moment, the mantis shrimp was nowhere near as spirited as he had been when he first came upstairs.

Those who knew him would think he had just escaped death during a job interview.

The mantis shrimp opened its mouth, as if it had some question for Fang Yun.

But when the words were about to come out, he suddenly swallowed them back.

"First of all, on behalf of everyone in the Cloud Club, I would like to welcome you to join us!"

Seeing the mantis shrimp looking like it wanted to say something but hesitated, Fang Yun had an idea. Instead of asking questions, he patted the man on the shoulder and congratulated him on his successful job application.

Followed by.

Before the mantis shrimp could even open their mouths.

He waved his hand, indicating that the other person could come downstairs to talk.

After a while.

The two returned to the first floor.

Finally, feeling the inexplicable pressure above his head disappear, the mantis shrimp breathed a sigh of relief. Then, unable to hold back any longer, he cautiously asked Fang Yun a question.

"That Cheng-ge... was the guy who interviewed me just now really the Su Jiu I know?"

Mantis shrimp are not face-blind.

Sujiu has appeared in offline competitions more than once or twice.

In addition, there was her face, which was both beautiful and cold, leaving an unforgettable impression.

How could a mantis shrimp not recognize her?

But it was precisely because he had such a deep impression of the ghee wine.

So much so that during the interview just now, he subconsciously greeted the other person.

And then... something bad happened!

He didn't know if it was because the other person didn't like him or if it was just his true personality.

In short, in his opinion, Su Jiu was a beautiful woman, but she was also frighteningly cold!

The key is that it doesn't matter if you're cold; a cold beauty is still a beauty.

But Su Jiu's subsequent barrage of criticism, along with a long list of onboarding instructions and the occasional look of disdain, made Pipi Shrimp's half-hour interview feel like he was sitting on pins and needles!

This woman is terrifying; her aura is incredibly strong!

During this half-hour interview.

Aside from the fact that he noticed the other person's appearance at the beginning.

For the next twenty minutes or so, he completely forgot about the other person's gender; only one sentence remained in his mind—

This general manager is someone you absolutely cannot offend!

The interview lasted until it ended after half an hour.

After signing a whole bunch of employment contracts in a daze.

He was then able to escape and leave the office that had given him goosebumps.

It wasn't until he got back to the first floor that he finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like he had finally come back to life.

"Yeah, how many Su Jiu can there be in this game?"

As expected, the first thing the other party did after leaving the office was to confirm Su Jiu's identity.

Fang Yun smiled and spoke.

It can only be said that the mantis shrimp's reaction was exactly as he expected.

In fact, it wasn't just him.

Almost all new employees who have been interviewed by Sujiu have had the same question in their minds—

Is this icy, queen-like figure really the same Su Jiu who quietly followed Fang Yun during the offline competition, keeping an incredibly low profile?

The contrast is too great!

Of course they don't know.

In fact, this is exactly what Sujiu looks like when it's in working mode.

Even before joining Cloud Club, she was a well-known workaholic, extremely serious about her work, and had a very aloof personality.

That is, after I met Fang Yun, and especially after spending more time with him.

The ghee wine only has a little bit of 'human touch' on it.

otherwise.

If it weren't for Fang Yun's 'melting' efforts over the years, these guys would probably have been too afraid to even sign a contract after just one interview with Su Jiu at her peak!

"It really is her..."

She was certain that the queen who had just interviewed her was indeed Su Jiu, whom she knew.

The mantis shrimp felt like its head was about to explode—

He suddenly felt that his future days at this club would definitely be incredibly 'exhilarating'! (End of Chapter)
