Life 1984

Chapter 218 I want to be your secretary

Li Yunhai asked Yan Mengyu to buy two cups of coffee at the hotel and give them to Logan and Brown.

Like the Furong Hotel, the Changdao Hotel sells coffee because it is close to the train station and attracts many foreigners, Hong Kong and Taiwanese to stay.

Li Yunhai told them calmly that if you don't want to cooperate, you can cancel the contract and I will refund the money to you.

After careful consideration, Logan and Brown finally agreed to the conditions proposed by Li Yunhai.

Li Yunhai shook hands with them, smiled and said it was a pleasure to cooperate.

At this point, Li Yunhai has officially received US$4 million in licensing fees through authorization.

And these franchisees will have to ask him to import raw materials worth US$5 per ton in the future.

The bigger their business grows, the more Li Yunhai earns.

Many large companies in the world rely on patent licensing to make money.For example, the famous Nokia, after the collapse of its mobile phone business, relied on numerous patents to earn tens of billions every year.

Li Yunhai was born in such an era, so of course he had to leave some capital for himself to earn money.

In his hands, in addition to silicon complex CCA, there are four new types of CCA that do not contain metal ions.But there is no need to show it off now.

After completing four patent authorizations, Li Yunhai's focus is still on establishing the Sihai Group.

Sihai Group's recruitment advertisement attracted a lot of attention after it was published in the provincial daily and evening newspapers.

Newspapers of this period also accepted advertisements, but generally speaking, they were center-seam advertisements, that is, small advertisements.

But the recruitment advertisement of Sihai Group is different.

Li Yunhai was so wealthy that he bought out an entire page for advertising, and even placed an advertisement in a prominent position in the newspaper.

The small space next to the masthead is commonly known as the "newspaper eye".There are no regulations on the content arrangement of the newspaper. Some are used to publish summary, calendar and weather forecast, some are used to publish important news or pictures, and some are used to publish advertisements.Due to the prominent position of the bulletin, the advertising charges are particularly high.

Newspapers of this period usually did not have many pages, only four or eight pages.

One advertisement occupies one page. Let’s not talk about whether the advertising fee is expensive. Without certain personal connections, other newspapers may not give you such a large page.

Li Yunhai did this easily. He bought out a page and newspaper advertisement in several of the most influential newspapers in the province, and advertised for a month continuously!

Baoyan's advertisement content is very simple. For example, there are only ten words in the Baoyan position: Sihai Group is looking for talents with high salaries.

The large advertisement at the back contains more detailed requirements and instructions, as well as the address for the interview.

Li Yunhai listed in detail the positions he wanted to recruit, the requirements, and of course the salary.

He is really not lying when he says he is hiring with high salary. Taking a secretary as an example, he offers a monthly salary of up to 1200 yuan, but the requirements are not low either. The requirements are female, good appearance and temperament, college degree or above, 18 to 35 years old. Priority will be given to those who understand one to three foreign languages ​​between the ages of [-] and [-], and those who understand finance will be given priority.

Most of the people who meet these requirements are in government agencies, enterprises and institutions, and their positions are probably not too bad.Will they come to the interview for a monthly salary of [-] yuan?Are they willing to give up their iron rice bowl?

Iron Rice Bowl costs 50 yuan a month, and being Li Yunhai's secretary costs 1200 yuan per month. Working as a secretary for one month is equivalent to Iron Rice Bowl's two years' salary.

For other senior positions, Li Yunhai's salary is certainly more unambiguous.

The advertisement was published on Monday, and the phone number of Sihai Group's office was left on it.

Li Yunhai sometimes works in the office, and more often in Sihai stores.No matter where he is, you can always find him.

But three days passed and no one came for the interview.

This makes Li Yunhai very depressed!
He once wondered if the phone in the office was broken?Why is there not even a single person to consult?

He came to the office again that day and asked Yan Mengyu if he had a call today?
Yan Mengyu replied that there is no phone number. If there is a phone call for you, I will report to you in time.

Li Yunhai thought for a moment depressedly, the advertisement was ineffective?Or are your demands too high?Is it really hard to find college students in this era?
Yan Mengyu didn't know what Li Yunhai was waiting for, because people at their level didn't usually have the habit of reading newspapers.

Li Yunhai called Professor Ni and asked him to bring someone over to do some work.

Professor Ni readily agreed and said he would bring a few people over.

However, most of the people Professor Ni is interested in are also scientific research materials, so they can only join the scientific research institute.

Li Yunhai even thought about whether to advertise on CCTV?Recruiting nationwide!

The closer they are to the provinces and cities in the mainland, the more people seek job stability and value stable income. People like Liu Jie, Shen Xiulan and others have long known that being self-employed is very profitable. A random stall holder in a night market street can earn as much as Dozens, even hundreds.But asking Liu Jie and Shen Xiulan to resign and go to sea is probably more difficult than reaching heaven.

Because although self-employed people can make money, they have no status.Since ancient times, among scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, commerce came last.

A stable establishment job is equivalent to a "shi".

This is why, after Li Yunhai resigned and went to work, the Shen family's attitude towards him changed dramatically.

However, in coastal areas, the atmosphere is relatively open, and they are more deeply influenced by Hong Kong, Taiwan and foreign countries. More young people yearn for freedom and entrepreneurship, instead of tying their lives to a small desk and repeating the same tasks every day. Life is a life that can be seen to the end.

Just when Li Yunhai was thinking wildly, there was a knock on the door.

The door is not closed, it is open.

Li Yunhai looked up and saw a very beautiful young woman with neat short hair. She was wearing an off-white woolen coat. She was tall and had a delicate face.

"Hello, is this where Sihai Group's interviews take place?" The woman's voice was clear, neither fast nor slow, and she seemed very patient.

"Yes. Are you here for an interview? Please come in." Li Yunhai finally saw someone coming for an interview, and he was very happy. No matter what position the other person came to interview for, someone was finally here, right?

"Is the interview leader here?"

"I am!"

"You? Are you the interviewer? How old are you? How can you interview people?"

"If you have ambitions, you are still young!"

"Are you really the interviewer? What's your position? HR manager?"

"The human resources manager is temporarily lacking. What position are you applying for?"

"Finance Manager."

"What is your degree? What is your name? First introduce yourself, or do you have a resume?"

"I don't have a resume. My name is Chu Yu, a graduate of the Department of Economics and Management of Central South Institute of Technology."

Central South Institute of Technology, the predecessor of Nanhua University, was two completely different schools from the later Central South University.

Li Yunhai asked: "Which unit do you work in now?"

"I work in a county town in Hengzhou. I don't want to stay in a small place. I want to come to a big city. I have a classmate in Xizhou. She asked me to come over and play. I'm looking for a job here by the way, but the government agencies and state-owned enterprises are... It’s too difficult to get into, and many units are still laying off employees! I happened to see your recruitment advertisement in the newspaper, so I came over to ask about the situation.”

"Hengzhou? Which county? In which unit?"

"Hengnan, Mining Bureau."

"Why are you, a college student, assigned to that place?"

"At that time, in our county, only the Mining Bureau had quotas. People from the organization department told me to stay for two years and then transfer me to work in the county office. As a result, two years passed without any news. Later, I I heard that my place at the county office has long been taken by another person."

"Are you in Hengnan Mining Bureau? Do you know a person named Liu Xing?" Li Yunhai suddenly remembered that the last time he met with Lu Jun, Lu Jun mentioned that Liu Xing worked in Hengnan Mining Bureau.

"Liu Xing? There seems to be such a person. He is thin and not tall. He is a technical secondary school graduate, right? He was assigned to me in July last year. I have met him. How do you know him?"

"He is my classmate."

"Then you are also a technical secondary school student?"

"Yes, I graduated from Xizhou Industrial Technical School."

"You are a technical secondary school student, how can you still be an interviewer?"

"Comrade Chu Yu, it's hard for us to recruit college students!"

"Then let me ask you, your company said that the financial manager has a monthly salary of 1500 yuan, is it true?"

"Of course it is true, provided you are qualified to do the job of a financial manager."

"I can! Can you make the decision to recruit people?"

At this time, Yan Mengyu walked in and said, "Boss, the office over there is leaking."

Li Yunhai waved his hand: "You go find Yang Guang or Yang Shuyue to solve the problem."

Yan Mengyu agreed, turned around and went downstairs to find someone.

Chu Yu looked at Li Yunhai in surprise: "Are you the boss? Or is your name Laoban?"

Li Yunhai smiled slightly and said: "My name is Li Yunhai, and I am the founder of Sihai Group. Comrade Chu Yu, your academic qualifications and image are in line with our employment requirements. If you are willing to come to work in our company, next week On Sunday, please come here for a re-examination. We will give you a result whether you are accepted or not."

"Do we have to wait until next week? Do I have to come from Hengzhou again?"

"Comrade Chu Yu, today is just a preliminary interview. We will definitely have a re-examination."

"Is the re-examination a written test?"

"There are some professional contents. You will know when you come here. By the way, do you know anything about our Sihai Group?"

"I don't know at all, what do you do?"

Li Yunhai handed over a brief introduction of the group and said: "We mainly deal in office equipment and consumables. We operate computers, typewriters, copiers, printers, engineering machines, toner cartridges, toner, etc. Have you ever been exposed to these? ?Anything will do.”

"We have an old computer in our unit, but we can't use it. I don't even know if the computer can still be turned on."

"Well, if you have time, you can take the time to learn about some related office equipment. This will definitely improve your retest success rate."

"Okay, then I'll take my leave."

Chu Yu stood up, took two steps, turned back, and asked with a smile: "Are you really the boss? How old are you? I know how old you are. You and Liu Xing are classmates, and they graduated last year. You Zenith must be 19 years old this year, right?”

Li Yunhai said yes, you are really good at reading people!

Chu Yu opened his mouth in surprise, glanced at Sihai Group's promotional briefing, and walked out of the office with a suspicious look on his face.

When she arrived on the first floor, she happened to see Yang Shuyue talking to someone at the front desk. Seeing that he looked like a hotel manager, she walked up and said, "Hello."

Yang Shuyue thought the other person was a guest in the hotel, so she politely replied: "Hello, what can I do for you?"

Chu Yu pointed to the upper floor and asked, "That Sihai Group on the second floor of your hotel is not a scam company, isn't it?"

Yang Shuyue was stunned for a moment, then she bent over with a smile, held her belly with both hands, and said ouch, ouch, "Comrade, what are you kidding me about? That's Sihai Group, the largest office equipment company in our province, and mine." The richest company in the province! Their turnover at the Canton Fair is calculated in hundreds of millions!"

"Really? Then why does their boss look so young?"

"Are you talking about Boss Li? Even though he is young, he is the richest person in our province!"

"So, is it true that their company is recruiting?"

"Recruitment? What recruitment?" Chu Yu took out a newspaper from his bag and handed it to Yang Shuyue to read: "Here, it's the recruitment inspiration in this newspaper. It's such a big advertisement! The salary is very high, so I came here. Take a look."

"Oh? Recruiting two secretaries, female, 18 to 35 years old. College degree or above, good appearance and temperament, preference will be given to those who understand accounting and speak one to three foreign languages. Monthly salary 1200 yuan!" Yang Shuyue read out the first recruitment question Demanding, "1200 yuan! Monthly salary? Such a high salary!"

"Yes! The salaries of the managers below are higher, starting at 1500."

"Then what position are you applying for?"

"Me? I want to be a financial manager. I have to take the re-examination next week. I won't tell you, I have to find out what office equipment is."

"Okay, bye. Walk slowly."

Yang Shuyue usually doesn't read newspapers because the articles in newspapers are very boring.

There were various newspapers in the hotel. She immediately found an evening newspaper and saw the words "Sihai Group is recruiting talents with high salaries" printed in ten small words in the newspaper window.

Yang Shuyue turned to the next page and saw the large advertisement.

She browsed through it quickly, then took the newspaper and hurried upstairs, her high heels clicking on the steps.

Arriving outside the door of Li Yunhai's office, Yang Shuyue knocked on the door.

"Mr. Yang, please come in." Li Yunhai said with a smile, "Yan Mengyu just said that there is a leak in the room over there. Send someone to deal with it!"

Yang Shuyue smiled and said: "I have sent someone to handle it. Boss Li, are you recruiting people?"

"Take it!"

"What do you want?"

"Talent, as long as it is talent, I want it."

"Does someone like me count as a talent?"

"Mr. Yang is joking, you have such a good job, why would you come to our company and succumb?"

"I'm serious, Boss Li, I want to apply for your secretary job."

"Oh really?"

"I'm not kidding, for the monthly salary of 1200 yuan, I want to give it a try. I meet your requirements for a secretary. I have a college degree, I graduated from a teachers' college, I can write and do calculations, and I can also speak English and Japanese. !”

"Well, yes, you can sign up, and you have passed my interview. You can come for the re-examination next Sunday."

"I also want to retake the exam? Can't you just admit me? Just promise, and I can work for you now."

"This?" Li Yunhai pondered undecided. Although Yang Shuyue met his requirements for a secretary, he still wanted to wait a few more days to see if there was a more suitable candidate.

He asked those who passed the interview to come together for a re-examination next Sunday, which meant selecting the best among the best.

"Mr. Yang, although our wages at Sihai Group are very high, you must also know that we are a private enterprise. Of course, we have shares in Tianhua Building and have cross-cooperation relationships with state-owned enterprises. But if you come to work , it must be unorganized. Please think clearly about this."

"I don't have to think about it! I work just to make money, and there is no rank to look forward to in this job anyway. If I work as your secretary for one month, it is worth two years of working here! As long as you recruit me, I will I will resign with you immediately!"

"Ahem! It's not about me, it's about working with me."

"it's the same."

"Well, you'd better come over next week and take the retest. Everyone has to take the retest. This makes it more fair and just."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Do you need help here? I'll stay and help you."

At this time someone knocked on the door again.

Yang Shuyue turned around and smiled: "Hello, comrade, who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Li Yunhai!" the visitor laughed.

When Li Yunhai heard this familiar voice, he put down the pen in his hand and said with a smile: "Manager Zhao, what kind of wind has brought you here! Please come in quickly."

The person coming was none other than Zhao Jinping.

Zhao Jinping rubbed his hands, walked over with a smile, and nodded to Yang Shuyue: "Hello, you are Boss Li's new secretary, right? You are very elegant!"

Yang Shuyue smiled sweetly and said: "Manager Zhao has a good eye. I am Boss Li's new secretary! My name is Yang Shuyue. Please take good care of me in the future."

Li Yunhai glared at her.

Yang Shuyue smiled lightly and winked at him: "Sooner or later!"

Li Yunhai was too lazy to pay attention to her and asked Zhao Jinping, "Manager Zhao, do you have anything to do with me?"

Zhao Jinping looked at the office and said, "I heard that you opened a company, but I didn't know about it. Otherwise, I should be here to set off firecrackers."

Li Yunhai chuckled: "It hasn't been officially listed yet, and we haven't recruited all the people yet!"

"Who else is missing?"

"Everyone is missing!"

"How do you see me?"

"You? Manager Zhao, are you kidding me? Will you come and help me work? You are the sales manager of Wuyiwen Company!"

"Yes, it is precisely because I am a manager now that I have the courage to apply for your sales manager position. If you don't like me, just pretend I didn't say anything."

"Wait a minute, Manager Zhao, are you serious? Then I'll take it seriously."

"It's absolutely true! Comrade Li Yunhai, I watched you grow up. Last summer, you set up a stall under the big tree in front of our sales department to repair home appliances and office equipment. All the employees in my store asked me to rush If you leave, you say it will affect our sales department's business. I looked at you and said there's no need to rush, this is still a child, let him set up a stall and make some money! Who would have thought that as soon as you make money, you will How about earning a billionaire? If I had known, I should have set up a stall with you last year."

Li Yunhai was stunned. Of course he believed Zhao Jinping's words.

If Zhao Jinping had driven Li Yunhai away from the sales department last summer, what would have happened would have been a different story.

Zhao Jinping smiled and said: "I'm tired of working at May Day. The company's performance is not bad. I'm not bragging. You can see it. Except for the copy machine, which can't be sold to you, other products in our store are very popular."

Li Yunhai nodded: "Of course. You are the store manager who is the best at management and sales I have ever seen."

Zhao Jinping said: "I dare not say that I am an expert on office equipment, but at least I am not an outsider. I know a little bit. In fact, I have wanted to follow you for a long time! I am just afraid that you will not want me. I accidentally read in the newspaper When I saw your recruitment inspiration, I thought, this is my opportunity! I have to seize it. So I came to you. We have been dealing with each other for a year and a half. What kind of person I am, you must also It’s clear. If you want it, just tell me. Regardless of whether it works or not, we will still be friends in the future.”

Li Yunhai stood up, stretched out his right hand, and said with a smile: "Comrade Zhao Jinping, thank you for your trust in me. Welcome to join Sihai Group! You will be my sales manager from now on!"

Zhao Jinping stood up, held Li Yunhai's hand with both hands, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Boss Li for looking up to me, I will be your soldier from now on. If you point east, I will never point west!"

"Great! Manager Zhao, I have always wanted to find a sales manager like you! When can you come over to work?"

"Well, I haven't resigned from the company yet. I will go back and tell you that I will come over when the company approves it. I will contact you later."

"Okay, you go back and get ready, I'll wait for you to come over."

Zhao Jinping left with a smile.

Yang Shuyue let out a long sigh: "I don't know who said it just now. Everyone must participate in the re-examination fairly! Boss Li, why did you hire me immediately as soon as Manager Zhao came? Why don't you need a re-examination?"

Li Yunhai laughed and said: "Is there any secretary who is so rude to the boss like you? Just this sentence, you are not qualified to be a secretary."

Yang Shuyue smiled sweetly and said: "Boss Li, just because I am your secretary, I should have something to say. If I tell lies, wouldn't it be against my will? What you like is not blindly flattering you and flattering you. People, right?"

Li Yunhai laughed and said, "You are the only one who can speak."

He straightened his face and said: "I have known Manager Zhao longer than you. I know him and know that he is qualified for the job of sales manager. But I don't know you well. So you have to retake the test, but he doesn't. This explanation, you Are you satisfied?"

Yang Shuyue was about to speak when another person came.

Li Yunhai's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Sister Su, why are you here? Don't tell me, you are also here for an interview, right?"

The visitor turned out to be Su Hong!
Su Hong's temperament and beauty were naturally superior to Yang Shuyue's. As soon as she entered the door, she outshone the latter.

"Boss Li, I did read the recruitment notice in the newspaper, so I came for the interview. I know Sihai Group is your company, so I dared to come."

"This? Sister Su, you are a pillar in the drama troupe. When you come to work in our company, you are switching from an iron rice bowl to a private enterprise."

"Isn't it a job, whether it's iron or not? I can tell clearly whether the rice bowl contains dozens of yuan or more than 1000 yuan. Boss Li, I know myself. I can't do other positions either. . I just want to interview your secretary, but I don’t know if I’m qualified?”

Yang Shuyue next to her suddenly became nervous when she heard this.

Because this is her competition!

Li Yunhai pondered slightly. Su Hong's image, temperament, and ability to drink were nothing to discuss. Moreover, Su Hong came from a major and had a college degree, but she probably didn't know finance or foreign languages.Her advantages are obvious, but so are her shortcomings.Using Su Hong as a secretary is very dignified. When you stand in front of a client, it's like having a big star by your side.

The two of them were so familiar, so there was no need for her to make another trip for a retest.

Li Yunhai decided to reply to her directly.

"Sister Su, thank you for your trust in me. I know your social skills. And social skills are the most important work ability of a secretary. Not to mention your image and temperament, this is Both Lin Zhi and I have admired you for a long time. I am very grateful to you for coming to help me. You can come to work at any time. But one thing you must think clearly is that we have no establishment here. You need to discuss it clearly with your family. You Once you resign, you are going to the sea."

"I don't have to think about it." Although Su Hong is not very old, because she has been performing on stage all year round, she has broad knowledge and a pair of eyes that can see through the world. She said calmly, "Everything is fake. Making money is the most real thing. . A person’s youth is over in the blink of an eye. If I don’t grasp it, I will waste half my life. You know the situation of my family. My parents are old and don’t have much salary. My younger brothers and sisters are all in high school. The family is in need. With money! I have never thought about spending a lot of money to wander around the market, but I want to use my hands to give the people who gave birth to me and raised me a more decent life. So I am willing to go to the sea."

Li Yunhai thought to himself, didn't you take on three commercials and earn 5000 yuan?Not enough?But every family has a hard-to-recite scripture. Since Su Hong did this, she must have her reasons.Moreover, the drama troupe will go downhill from now on. Unless you are really talented and love this industry very much, there is really no need to endure it.

Moreover, he welcomes Su Hong to come and help him, because he really needs all kinds of talents now.

Su Hong is eloquent, has a natural affinity, and is good at socializing. He can make use of such talents.

"Okay, since you have thought about it, you are welcome to come to work at any time." Li Yunhai smiled, "I think Lin Zhi will be surprised and happy if she knows that you are here to help me!"

Su Hong pursed her lips and smiled: "Thank you, Boss Li. I'm glad you can accept me. I thought you wouldn't want me! Because I don't know any foreign languages ​​or finance."

Li Yunhai said: "These are all skills. Those who don't know them can learn them. You are so good, it shouldn't be difficult to learn them."

Su Hong smiled and said, "Okay, I'll treat you to dinner tonight, and both you and Lin Zhi will come. Yuloudong, right?"

Li Yunhai said: "You don't have to spend so much money, just go to the night market to have some snacks!"

Su Hong said: "Then let me go to your house to meet you? Let's go to the night market together."

Li Yunhai said hello.

Su Hong stood up and left.

Yang Shuyue was unhappy. She pursed her lips and let out a long sigh: "Boss Li, you treat the applicants differently again! Did you hire the ones you liked on the spot? You didn't like the ones you liked, so you deliberately asked us to come over for a re-examination next week. ?”

Li Yunhai didn't expect that so many acquaintances would come for interviews, so he could only smile and said: "Sister Su and I are very familiar with each other, and I know her abilities. She can do the job of a secretary."

While they were chatting, there was a knock on the door.

Li Yunhai couldn't help but be startled when he saw the person standing at the door.

　First, ask for a monthly ticket.
