Chapter 576 - Can’t Calm Down

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Bang—”

Minister Qin’s pen fell from his hand.

As soon as Shao Tianwen finished speaking, no one else in the office said a single word. It was so quiet that even the sound of Minister Qin’s pen hitting the floor resounded clearly.

The other two members of the Qin family weren’t well informed and might not understand their reactions.

But the IT headquarters manager of the Yunguang Consortium?

Prior to this, the Qin Corporation wouldn’t have the qualifications to sit with the 28th-floor manager of the Yunguang Consortium to discuss business for another 10 years.

Even with Teacher Ku Ke just now, the Qin family in the office hadn’t been able to sit still.

But now, there was Shao Tianwen, whose work experience and title were both higher than that of Teacher Ku Ke?

Having experienced many years of ups and downs throughout the years and recently, the Qin family’s characters had become firm.

At this moment, everyone was in a daze.

They couldn’t calm down.

After Shao Tianwen introduced himself, he didn’t hear Minister Qin and the others ask him questions, so he couldn’t help but look up instead. “Leaders, don’t you have anything to ask me?”

He wondered if he had done something wrong in the interview.

After all, he had never had an interview before. He had established himself since a young age and had been poached by the first two companies. Later on, he met Lu Zhixin and directly entered the core of the Yunguang Consortium.

Thus, he didn’t know much about interviews.

Upon hearing this, Minister Qin was the first to react.

He immediately stood up and felt like his head was floating. “Mr. Shao, you... are you sure you intended to come to the Qin Corporation for an interview? We’re the Qin family in Beijing.”

With Shao Tianwen’s achievements in IT, Minister Qin could barely resist addressing him using honorifics.

“There’s a Mr. Qin Hanqiu in the Qin family, right?” Shao Tianwen replied very politely.

Being called inexplicably, Qin Hanqiu busied himself. “Yes, that’s me.”

“Then, I’m in the right place.” Shao Tianwen nodded and said very generously, “I have no salary requirements or anything. I’ll follow the company’s arrangement. Can I sign the contract now? I can sign for 10 or 8 years.”

He was even actively seeking to sign this unfair contract?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

They had already prepared this contract early on. In the beginning, it was to show the interviewer the content of the Qin Corporation’s contract, but who knew it could be used now.

Shao Tianwen signed the contract very simply and neatly.

The group of people in the office was completely stiff with shock.

“Mr. Shao, let me send you out.” Qin Hanqiu was familiar with Teacher Ku Ke, so he had been a little more casual with him. But Shao Tianwen was different.

The big boss that all the IT groups all over the world wanted to dig had come to their own company. How could Minister Qin and Qin Hanqiu put on airs in front of him?

He sent Shao Tianwen out very respectfully, politely, and a little in a daze.

Qin Corporation’s interview venue was very regular.

Outside was a spacious promenade and a lounge used by the interviewers with a row of stools for them.

The interviewees were ranked according to the numbers drawn.

Qin Hanqiu reached out to open the door to personally send Shao Tianwen out.

Minister Qin and the others followed him closely.

“Mr. Shao, do you want to take a look at the work...” Qin Hanqiu didn’t know much about IT, so it was Minister Qin who chatted with him.

They walked out.

Minister Qin looked up while speaking and saw that Lu Zhixin was sitting in the first position on the left. He patted his sleeves and stood up.

“You’re out already?” Lu Zhixin’s face was gloomy and as expressionless as ever.

“En- Environment.” Minister Qin stuttered and trailed off after seeing Lu Zhixin’s face.

What the hell, Lu Zhixin was also here for the interview?!

“You don’t have to send me off.” Shao Tianwen raised his hand and waved off Qin Hanqiu and the others. “Mr. Lu is the next interviewer, and there are several more as well.”

Qin Hanqiu finally reacted and looked at Lu Zhixin. “Cousin, you...”

“Haven’t you come as well?” Lu Zhixin turned sideways and pointed to the remaining six people behind him. “We’ve all quit our jobs. Let’s see if we’re needed here. If we are, we can sign the contract.”

Qin Hanqiu’s brain jumped fast. As soon as Lu Zhixin finished speaking, he spoke directly, and even somewhat incoherently, “Yes, why wouldn’t we need you? Please come in first!”

He turned sideways to give way and let Lu Zhixin and the others enter.

A total of 9 people entered, including Lu Zhixin, Shao Tianwen, and Ku Ke.

Qin Hanqiu took them to sign the contracts.

Several people in charge of the Qin Corporation followed Minister Qin and exchanged glances. Lu Zhixin continued talking to Minister Qin and Ah Hai. The others weren’t higher-ups in Beijing and didn’t know him.

Qin Hanqiu had never publicly stated his relationship with Lu Zhixin in the Qin family.

Looking at their backs, he lowered his voice and asked Minister Qin curiously, “Minister Qin, who are they?”

Minister Qin remained silent and looked at the figures in front of them for a long while before looking away.

“This is his resume. Take a look.” Minister Qin reached out and handed over the stack of resumes that Qin Hanqiu had placed on the table.

The remaining people in charge of the Qin Corporation moved to the other side.

They flipped over the resume.

[Lu Xien, Continent M’s national defense department engineer, 6 years in office. The Yunguang Consortium’s core technology software engineer, 3 years in office.]

[Jia Xuan, chief engineer of True Group, 7 years in office. The second engineer of the Yunguang Consortium, 4 years in office.]
