A short while later, Xu Fengnian brought in the ten remaining candidates.These people had applied to become the finance department manager and hold the economic lifeline of the whole company in their hands.
At this point all the candidates were already in their places. But this time, in front of them, was a book and a calculator.
"What is in front of you are all the accounts since the establishment of the company. The next thing you need to do is to use the calculator to calculate the total amount of expenses and income of the company. The time limit is half an hour. Whoever can calculate it first and accurately, will get the job."
After giving a brief explanation of the situation, Xu Fengnian looked at his time and said, "Get started."
The applicants became immersed in their work. Everyone"s performance was extremely focused and serious, the constant tapping of calculators filled the room.
Ten minutes later, Fu Bo walked in again, holding another kettle in his hand. He then stumbled and fell again. The loud bang once again gained everyone"s attention.
Although these candidates hadn"t been present for the previous interview, they had naturally picked up clues from the complaints of the first wave of interviewees as they left.
The reason why the previous batch of people failed in the interview was because they were indifferent.
Learning their lessons from the others, nine of the candidates sprang from their seats at the same time and rushed to surround Fu Bo.
At this moment, only a young girl was sitting in her seat, still paying attention to her accounts as if nothing had happened. She meticulously went through her numbers and stayed indifferent to the commotion.
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and asked the girl softly: "Why didn"t you move to help the old man, isn"t a life more important than some work?"
"No, if there is no job, my family and I will starve to death. Besides, there are so many people over there helping anyways, one less won"t make a difference, if the old man really fainted because of his poor health, he would be fine. But if I messed up the accounts due to being distracted it could cause the company to lose millions."
The girl answered Zhang Xiaohua"s question while she continued to bury her head in the accounts.
"Lead the others out." When Zhang Xiaohua paused, he immediately reached out to the young girl and smiled at Xu Fengnian: "Besides her."
Xu Fengnian nodded, and at the same time cast a congratulatory look at the girl.
All the other candidates jumped up in protest: "What the h.e.l.l!? Last time you failed the other candidates for not helping! We all helped this time and she gets the job for doing nothing!?"
Zhang Xiaohua snorted and said: "You knew that he was pretending, yet you still ditched your work to join in the fun, you knew the facts, yet you choose to be deceived."
Zhang Xiaohua looked at the young girl and smiled: "Didn"t you hear the lady"s words? The financial accounts of the company must be treated with utmost care, because once there is the slightest of mistakes, the entire company will be affected. If you don"t understand this basic truth, why should I hire you? What I want is people who put this point above everything else, that"s your job, nothing else should matter."
After being repeatedly rebuked by Zhang Xiaohua, several of the applicants were red-faced and silently bowed their heads without words.
After sending away the other nine candidates, Xu Fengnian gave a copy of the girl"s information to Zhang Xiaohua:
Name: Mi Jia
Age: 26 years old
University: Tianjing City School of Economics
Work experience: Starting Today???
"...." Zhang Xiaohua was speechless, he looked up at the girl and asked: "Are you called Mi Jia?"
"Yes." Replied the girl, coupled with her cold face and black professional women"s suit she gave people a feeling of coldness, as if made of ice.
"Since your work experience on the resume says "starting today", can I understand that you were confident in getting the job even before the interview?"
"If you don"t even have the confidence to succeed, why even bother coming? Since I"m here, why shouldn"t I have a little confidence in myself?" Mi Jia said calmly leaving Zhang Xiaohua speechless.
After a moment of bitter laughter, Zhang Xiaohua stood up and went to Mi Jia. He said seriously: "The monthly salary is 38,000 yuan, excluding bonuses. After a while, Manager Xu will take you to your office. Within three days, I want you to do a run through of the company"s accounts. Remember, don"t cut corners."
"I will try my best, please rest a.s.sured boss."
....
8 o"clock. Monday,
Under the arrangement of Zhang Xiaohua, the company had been proceeding in an orderly manner. Although time was a bit tight, everyone was working in their own duties.
After half a month, the head office staff had reached 50 people divided into eight departments, namely the Business department, Finance department, Human Resources department, IT Department, Public Relations Department, Advertising Department, Music Department and the Administration Department and the heads of all the departments were under the control of Zhang Xiaohua.
In the conference room, the supervisors of all the departments were present.
At the request of Zhang Xiaohua, everyone had put their energy into Ling Ming"s concert, which was the theme of today"s meeting.
"Emma, how is preparing the materials for advertising?" Zhang Xiaohua asked.
"All ready, you can begin the advertising stage." Emma answered seriously. She was now the supervisor of the Advertising department and the Public Relations department. Because of the sufficient staff, she wasn"t too hard worked, but she had obviously matured a lot.
Zhang Xiaohua nodded with satisfaction and turned to Yuan Datong: "How are the rehearsals going. Are the dancers decided?"
As the company"s general manager and music director, Yuan Datong naturally took on a heavy burden: "The rehearsals are going smoothly. After all, Ming"er and the troupe have cooperated before, so it is very tacit. I have already decided the dancers, everything is in place."
Zhang Xiaohua nodded, then looked at Xiaohai and the several people and asked seriously: "How about you, how are the rehearsals going?"
"We have already rehea.r.s.ed with Ming"er. We are prepared." Xiaohai said with a smile, this time he, Haozi, Jimmy and Jack were responsible for the concert soundtrack.
Zhang Xiaohua also smiled slightly and expressed his firm belief. Then, he asked Xu Fengnian: "Manager Xu, are there any companies willing to sponsors.h.i.+p the concert?"
Xu Fengnian looked at the notebook and said: "There are a total of 18 companies willing to provide sponsors.h.i.+p. But after my screening, I only kept three, the other 15 are too small, they didn"t offer much, they just wanted to use Miss Ling"s reputation."
"Well done, later just ignore those type of companies directly." Zhang Xiaohua took a sip of water and continued to ask: "What are the three companies called, how much are they willing to pay and what are the requirements?"
