Chapter One: The Interview

  Four years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the young man has become a youth. When others are still hungover from the graduation party, he has already gone to the airport and boarded a flight to City A.

  City A, a modern international metropolis with a permanent population of 18 million. It is the first choice for graduates to work after graduation.

  A young man looked up at a 33-story skyscraper with a huge sign on top that read "Du Shi International" in four large characters. Du Shi International was one of the top ten groups in City A, and even globally, it could be ranked among the top two hundred. Their businesses included gold, shipping, mining, automobiles, suits, real estate, and more. In online surveys, Du Shi International was also one of the most desired private enterprises for new graduates.

  The young man walked into the hall, facing the receptionist's gaze was a bit unnatural. The silk scarf on this receptionist's work uniform could buy his entire set of equipment, including the over 300 yuan in cash left in his pocket.

  "Hello, how can I help you?" Even in the face of this slightly shabby young man, the receptionist did not reveal a hint of negative emotion. This is the style of a private conglomerate.

  "Hello." The young man put down his luggage, took out a printed sheet from the computer and handed it over: "I'm here for an interview."

  The receptionist looked at me for a moment and directed: "Turn left and go straight to the end."

  "Thank you."

  "You're welcome, take care, I hope we can be colleagues." The receptionist smiled in response.

  Even flight attendants have never encountered such gentle words, and the young man had a heroic spirit of not entering the capital without a purpose.

  The person who had been lying on the receptionist's desk reading letters for a while picked up a few letters and left. The receptionist bowed and said, "Slow down, Mr. Du." As he watched Mr. Du enter the elevator, the receptionist let out a deep breath.

  A man wearing glasses and a suit walked over with a computer printout in his hand: "Excuse me."

  "Over there." The receptionist didn't even lift her head as she tidied up the letters that Mr. Du had messed up.

  Du Shi International is a bit of a disappointment! The man didn't say anything and walked towards the passageway on the left.

  ……

  Experts say the employment rate of college students is over 90%, and young people think these experts should come and take a look. Three places, but there were one hundred and forty people interviewing. Why do young people know so clearly? Because there was a portable caller on site, with their own number being one hundred and four.

  From what I can see on site, this is a makeshift department. There are no reception staff, apart from two security guards maintaining order in the building.

  "Wow, you're B's big brother?"

  Another guy smiled complacently and nodded humbly: "Who are you?"

  "Cambridge, Cambridge, England."

  "......" Another guy said with a bit of discontent: "I heard that getting a master's degree from Cambridge is easy, but our B University is tough. I just got a master's title."

  "It seems it's really like this, I can easily get a PhD."

  "Doctor? Are you also applying for this unit? You can at least go to the tenth floor."

  "Gold will always shine, but it must first be dug up. Now my goal is to enter the Du family's international company, even sweeping the floor would do."

  The young man gently opened his graduation certificate and took a look, feeling disheartened. This person compared to others is really depressing. Quietly listening to the discussions, basically all of them are from top universities, at worst second-tier universities. His own useless school is third-rate... by the way, why isn't there a fourth-rate? At least he can still step on several bottom-dwellers.

  Number one hundred and forty-one, a man wearing glasses sat down beside the young man. The young man glanced at him with some surprise. This person was around twenty-seven or eight years old, with a striking temperament and handsome appearance. A suit that was not expensive but of good quality, dressed neatly and elegantly, with a small amount of hair gel on his head making him look even more spirited.

  Do you need it? With so many masters and doctors stepping on themselves, do you still need to arrange someone like that to humiliate yourself?

  Although he said so, the young man still glanced at the resume in his hand and then silently stood up, alone drawing circles in the corner. MIT, this son of a bitch is actually a Ph.D. from MIT, with dual degrees in mathematics and computer science. Is it possible to let people eat? The US Empire's intention to destroy us is not dead, and they have sent such a strong person to compete with Chinese college students for low-level jobs. Are you forcing us to form a team to sneak into the White House to protest?

  ……

  The interview seemed to be very fast, ten people were interviewed in just ten minutes.

  "Number 135 to 145, queue over here."

  So, the young man inevitably had another intimate contact with the double PhD holder.

  One by one they went in, one by one they came out. Number 140 appeared, and the young man walked into the office. The office had only one person, a woman. A woman who had already interviewed 139 people and was still spirited and alert.

  The young man sat down, handed over his resume, and the woman looked at the number, pulled out his information. She looked at him again. He was a graduate with a hint of innocence on his face, with regular features, a smile on his face, and three points of confidence in his eyes. What she didn't know was that the young man originally had full confidence. But he was beaten by that perfect man to three points.

  Du Qingqing: 25 years old. Before birth, his father committed suicide, and his mother remarried a certain Wang surname businessman. Later, due to domestic violence, Du Qingqing's mother divorced the Wang surname businessman when Du was six years old. She raised Du independently. Before graduating from high school, her mother died of illness. Before her death, she found Du Jia's helmsman, former Du Shi International Group CEO Du Xing. Du Xing added Du Qingqing to the family tree and restored his Du surname identity. After graduating from university, he worked at Du Shi International. Last year, A City piloted the opening of private investigation agencies, and Du Shi Group established Xingxing Wanshitong Investigation Agency. Du Qingqing was in charge. This May, Xingxing Wanshitong Investigation Agency split up. The original manager Liu Mao took over as CEO of Wanshitong Advanced Investigation Company, and Du Qingqing founded Xingxing Business Investigation Company.

  "What's wrong?" Du Qingqing asked.

  "Yes." And so the young man had a name: Yu Ming. Yu Ming sized up Du Qingqing, he had privately investigated her for some time, to put it inappropriately, she was like a wolf and tiger, full of energy. Ordinary employees feared this kind of supervisor the most. When the boss played with women, employees played with their lives, at least they could slack off and curse the boss for being inhumane. But when the boss stopped playing with women and started playing with his life instead, employees had no choice but to risk their lives to follow the boss.

  Du Qingqing said: "Tell me your reasons for wanting to join our company."

  "I need a job."

  Du Qingqing didn't give a direct answer and asked instead: "What makes you think the company wants to hire you?"

  It's not surprising that the soldier is no longer usable, and Yu Ming replied: "Because..." The previous 140 people must have said the lines to death. Saying the same thing as them will inevitably lead to defeat under their high academic qualifications. It takes time to come up with new words.

  Du Qingqing nodded: "Nice to meet you, wait for notification." Then she prepared to press the buzzer.

  "Give me a chance."

  Du Qingqing took back her hand: "It's rare to see a graduate being so unpretentious. That's also a highlight. You have 30 seconds to convince me to give you an opportunity. Or do you have any special talents that others don't have?"

  P.S: Not urban fantasy, must stick a label on it. In addition to special forces and doctors, etc., cultivation is relatively more reliable in comparison.

  PS2: During the new book period, votes, collections, and clicks are very important. How much is needed depends on how much you want.

  PS3: During new book periods, three updates a day, divided into morning, noon and night time slots, exact timing cannot be determined.

  PS4: No auto-posting service before going live, something came up in the afternoon, only updating two chapters today.
