Reborn in the red age

Chapter 537 Huang Haimei

Zhao Xuewu, who received Li Qingfeng's personal business card, was excited for the whole morning.

When I was teaching students in the morning, I made several mistakes because I was absent-minded and my eyes kept glancing at the watch on my wrist.

After finally waiting for school to be over, Zhao Xuewen hurried to the bicycle shed, got on his bicycle and rode towards his girlfriend's workplace. The bicycle chain was almost sparking from pedaling along the way.

He pedaled for several kilometers in one breath and arrived at the building where his girlfriend worked on Zhongguancun South Street. Without even taking a breath, he parked his bike casually and rushed into the building.

Huang Haimei, who was dressed fashionably and was about to go out for dinner with her colleagues after get off work, saw him sweating and panting, and said unhappily: "What's wrong with you? You look so anxious, what a mess!"

Zhao Xuewu smiled apologetically at Huang Haimei's colleague. He then didn't bother to answer Huang Haimei's question. He grabbed Huang Haimei's wrist and hurried to the stairs.

Without waiting for Huang Haimei, whose face was filled with impatience, to speak, Zhao Xuewu carefully took out the business card that Li Qingfeng had given him in the morning from his jacket pocket.

Zhao Xuewu held the business card, his eyes sparkling with excitement: "Hai Mei, look what this is"

"What?" Huang Haimei said casually.

Zhao Xuewu looked around carefully, and when he found that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said excitedly, "Didn't you get the opportunity to interview at Lemon Company? This is the personal business card of their chairman, Li Qingfeng. Professor Li gave it to me personally this morning. With this business card, you can easily pass the interview."

Huang Haimei's originally nonchalant expression froze in an instant, and then turned into extreme surprise. She snatched the business card from Zhao Xuewu's hand and looked back and forth at the gold-plated business card in her hand.

After seeing Qingfeng Li's name and phone number on it, Huang Haimei lowered her voice and asked in disbelief, "Is this really Qingfeng Li's business card? You're not lying to me, are you?"

"Of course. He came to school in the morning to talk to his class teacher about his daughter. I asked him for it and he gave it to me personally. How could it be fake?" Zhao Xuewu straightened his back and said with pride.

After taking a look at Zhao Xuewu's expression which did not seem fake, and then looking at the gold-plated business card in his hand, Huang Haimei believed what Zhao Xuewu said.

It turns out that this cheap boyfriend of mine is actually the substitute teacher of Li Qingfeng's daughter. I used to think that he was just bragging to me, but I didn't expect it to be true.

"Hai Mei, you see, we have been together since college, and I have graduated from graduate school. If you pass the interview this time, let's just get married. I want to have a stable home with you." Zhao Xuewu looked at Huang Haimei's excitement, hesitated for a moment, and finally plucked up the courage to propose the idea of ​​marrying Huang Haimei.

Huang Haimei, who was holding the business card and looking at it excitedly, froze in an instant. After a moment of silence, an unnatural smile flashed across her face: "Xuewu, isn't it too early to talk about marriage now? Private companies are different from the system. I have only graduated for four years. It is the age of struggle. I still want to work hard in my career for a few more years and don't want to be bound by family so early."

"But I really want to start a family with you. I will support your career and will not be an obstacle to you." Zhao Xuewu's face turned a little ugly, and he hurriedly explained to Huang Haimei.

Huang Haimei shook her head gently: "Xuewu, you don't understand, I don't want to rush into marriage so hastily, I'm not mentally prepared yet, let's focus on our own things first."

"Okay, Hai Mei, I respect your decision. You should prepare well for the interview first. I will support you behind the scenes." There was a hint of disappointment in Zhao Xuewu's eyes, but he still said with a forced smile.

Seeing that Zhao Xuewu finally stopped pestering her about marriage, Huang Haimei breathed a sigh of relief and changed the subject, "You said that rich people are different. Their business cards are all gold-plated. This one is probably worth dozens of dollars."

"Yes, it looks like there is at least half a gram of gold on this business card," Zhao Xuewu calmed down and agreed.

Huang Haimei stroked the raised part of the business card, her eyes sparkling, and she whispered, "It's great to be rich."

On the day of the interview, Huang Haimei got up early, dressed herself, carried her bag, went out, took a taxi, and went to the floor of the Lemon Company in Huaxin Building to wait for the interview.

When entering the interview meeting room to face the interviewer, Huang Haimei pretended to be calm on the surface, but she was nervous and excited inside.

While answering the HR manager's routine questions, he quietly reached into his pocket and gently broke a thread that sewed the pocket, causing a tiny crack to appear at the seam of his jacket pocket.

Then he pretended to move casually, and the business card that he had deliberately put in his pocket slowly slid out through the crack and fell silently to the ground, in just the right position, within the interviewers' line of sight.

After doing all this, Huang Haimei pretended not to notice and continued to answer the interviewer's questions.

After the interview, as Huang Haimei had expected, before she stood up, she was indeed stopped by the HR manager and reminded that she had dropped something.

Huang Haimei pretended to have just discovered it, with just the right amount of surprise and embarrassment on her face. She quickly bent down to pick it up, and whispered, "Oh, I'm sorry, the business card in my pocket fell out. I'm so sorry."

After bending down to pick up the business card on the ground, Huang Haimei stood up and deliberately adjusted the angle of the business card in her hand to ensure that the interviewer could clearly see the name on the business card.

The fact was just as he expected. The interviewers did see the three big characters "Li Qingfeng" on the business card. Several interviewers couldn't help but look at each other and exchange glances.

Huang Haimei was secretly happy, but still pretended nothing had happened and carefully put away the business card, then said goodbye and left.

After Huang Haimei left, the others did not rush to call the next interviewer, but instead quietly discussed what to do with the person with Qingfeng Li's business card? Should they keep him or not?
Chen Haitao, the human resources manager in charge of the interview, thought for a moment, nodded to the subordinate in charge of taking notes, and indicated that Huang Haimei should stay.

With the leader's instructions, the person in charge of recording changed the cross on Huang Haimei's resume to a check.

At noon the next day, Huang Haimei received a call from the Human Resources Department of Lemon Company, informing her that she had passed the interview and that she should report to the Human Resources Department within three days with her personal information to complete the entry procedures.

In this way, Huang Haimei successfully joined the domestic headquarters of Lemon Company, and her job position was the administrative secretariat, specifically responsible for the chairman's affairs. Her supervisor was He Guangqin, and it was the grassroots position closest to Li Qingfeng.

The salary and benefits are even better, much higher than that of ordinary employees. The basic salary for interns alone is 3,000 yuan per month, and they can also receive a considerable amount of clothing allowance every quarter.

"Secretary He, Secretary He, wait for me."

He Guangqin, who had been traveling every day for the listing of the lithography factory, had just returned to Huaxin and was about to take the elevator to go upstairs when he was stopped by the human resources manager Chen Haitao.

He Guangqin, who had already stepped into the elevator, saw Chen Haitao running towards him and quickly stretched out his hand to block the elevator from closing.

Chen Haitao quickly ran to the elevator entrance, thanked He Guangqin, and pressed the button for the floor where his department was located. While waiting for the elevator to go up, Chen Haitao pretended to say casually: "Secretary He, our company has hired a girl. I have assigned her to work for you. Have you seen her during this period?"

"No, when did it happen? How come I don't know about it?" He Guangqin asked in surprise.

“I’ve been working here for about ten days.”

"I haven't been to the office of Lemon Company for two months. Do you think I have seen it?"

He Guangqin shook his head, looked at Chen Haitao and said jokingly: "Old Chen, although we are in the same building, Teacher Li has always been here at Huaxin and has never left Lemon Company. Why did you arrange such a person? Is that person your relative?"

Chen Haitao waved his hands and explained with a wry smile: "Secretary He, please don't wrongly accuse me. How could I have the courage to be partial in this matter? This girl's school is okay, but her major is a little lacking. If she hadn't brought Mr. Li's personal business card to the interview, she would not have been allowed to pass the interview at all."

"What? You came to the interview with the chairman's personal business card? Are you sure?" He Guangqin's expression suddenly became surprised. He stared at Chen Haitao, waiting for his confirmation.

"It's absolutely true. At the interview, she deliberately let her business card fall out so that all the interviewers could see it. We discussed it and decided to keep her considering this relationship."

After listening to Chen Haitao's story, He Guangqing fell into deep thought. He Guangqin naturally knew what Li Qingfeng's personal business card represented.

Only Qingfeng Li has that business card, and he usually doesn't give it to unimportant people.

Anyone who could get Qingfeng Li's personal business card either had a good personal relationship with Qingfeng Li, or was an important figure. In any case, none of them were simple.

After bidding farewell to Chen Haitao who had arrived at his floor, He Guangqin continued to head to the floor where Li Qingfeng's office was located.

He Guangqin avoided Fifteen, who was brought to the company by Li Qingfeng because he had no one to take care of him during the summer vacation and was driving an electric toy car around, and went straight to Li Qingfeng's office.

"Guangqin is back. What do the exchanges in Shanghai and the Special Administrative Region say? Which exchange agrees to let our lithography company go public?" Li Qingfeng was trying out the soon-to-be-released version of Counter-Strike in his office after all the bugs had been fixed. When he saw He Guangqin come in, he asked.

He Guangqin frowned slightly, temporarily putting Huang Haimei's matter aside, and first reported to Li Qingfeng about the communication with the exchange: "No problem, both exchanges are very much looking forward to our lithography company being listed on their exchanges."

"Do we need to disclose financial statements to the public when we go public? After all, our lithography company has only been established for more than a month, and we don't even have the most basic products. Moreover, we are still in the process of research and development that costs a huge amount of money, and the financial statements are all full of loss data." Li Qingfeng stared at the screen and asked without even raising his head.

“People from both exchanges told us that we don’t need to worry about this, as they both have corresponding handling mechanisms and flexible policies.”

Li Qingfeng withdrew his mind from the game and couldn't help shaking his head. What a bullshit handling mechanism and flexible policy. It sounds good, but to put it bluntly, it's just fake.

In the past six months, one or two hundred state-owned enterprises that were about to go bankrupt have been listed. No one is more familiar with this process than them.

"Tell them we don't falsify data and ask them to find other ways."

“Okay, I’ll talk to them.”

Li Qingfeng nodded and continued to devote his attention to the tense and exciting CS battle.

First-person shooter (FPS) competitive games, after so many years, I can finally play them seriously.

Unfortunately, the players who came in through the LAN to take the test together were not very good. Faced with my own flexible movements, they all became masters of body outlining.

23 kills and zero deaths, this record made Li Qingfeng lose all his passion for the game.

This result made Li Qingfeng wonder if the young programmers in the company lacked training. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so beaten in reaction by a man like him who is almost 40 years old.

While mechanically operating the mouse and keyboard, I was thinking in my mind whether I should organize a global e-sports competition and train a few teams to play around after the game is released.

Another round of game was over, and it ended in a boring zero-death situation. Li Qingfeng couldn't help but stretch and end the game test.

He Guangqin, who had been standing by, saw that Li Qingfeng had finished the game, so he came over and reported to Li Qingfeng that someone had come with Li Qingfeng's personal business card.

Hearing about this, Qingfeng Li frowned: "What's the name of the woman with my name on her?"

"My name is Huang Haimei, I'm 25 years old, I graduated from the English major of Foreign Languages ​​University two years ago, and used to work in a private company in Zhongguancun doing foreign sales," He Guangqin, who had already found out the situation from Chen Haitao, answered without hesitation.

Just by hearing the name, Qingfeng Li knew that she had nothing to do with him. Not to mention knowing her, he had never even met her. There was no way he would give her his personal business card.

When someone sent the photo up and after looking at the photo of this woman, Li Qingfeng became even more certain that he had never seen her.

So he closed Counter-Strike, opened the company's internal employee system, and found out the time Huang Haimei joined the company.

After seeing Huang Haimei's interview time, Li Qingfeng recalled and had some guesses in his mind. He seemed to know where this woman got his personal business card.

After thinking for a while, Qingfeng Li waved at He Guangqin, motioning He Guangqin to come closer.

Li Qingfeng whispered in He Guangqin's ear: "Well, go find Huang Haimei and ask her if she has a boyfriend."

"Why are you asking this?" He Guangqin looked at Li Qingfeng strangely.

"Just go if you're told to go, don't ask so many whys"

"All right"
