Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 184

"Are you free today? If so, please come to the company for an interview!"

He was overjoyed to hear about the interview opportunity and nodded repeatedly.

I quickly tidied myself up, grabbed a quick bite at a fast food restaurant, and rushed off to the interview, afraid of missing this opportunity.

This was something Xu Lei had arranged a long time ago, just to give him this opportunity to learn more about China.

Although Chen Shuting didn't get a proper answer from Xu Lei, she was really worried because Zhao hadn't seen her at home all day.

He didn't reply to any of my messages, and I was afraid he would run away again and do something else. I was incredibly nervous.

"This child said he was going to work or study, but I don't know how he did today." His eyes showed a hint of surprise and fear that he might mess things up.

His nervousness was palpable, and he was incredibly worried.

Xu Lei knew that Gao Xiaochen had been busy with renovations recently and that the company was hiring, so he told Gao Xiaochen that the company was hiring a warehouse supervisor.

After all, given his qualifications, managing two warehouses shouldn't be too difficult for him.

The accounting records were also aligned with his major.

Once there, the interviewer, following Xu Lei's instructions, told him to get his hair permed and to wear work clothes every day.

If these two requests can be met, then I'll give him the job. The pay isn't high, but it'll be enough for him to support himself.

Chapter 191 Stunned

Jingcai was very happy with Xu Lei's arrangement for him.

After all, he had always wanted to prove himself, and after getting the job, Gao Xiaochen excitedly called Xu Lei.

"You said it's impossible for me to start from the bottom!"

"What? I've already found a job!"

"I'll be starting work in a couple of days. The salary is higher than I expected, and I'll be in charge of materials management."

Xu Lei nodded silently, showing little excitement.

"Why aren't you excited at all? I'm so happy today."

Gao Xiaochen felt that she had taken another step towards growth.

After Xu Lei hung up the phone, Chen Shuting, who was standing next to him, was stunned.

"Last night, I thought the child was lying, but I didn't expect him to actually want to go out and work."

Chen Shuting was surprised, but her face lit up with delight.

Even if this child is on the right path, he will always be unhappy.

After all, Gao Xiaochen hasn't had a proper job since returning to China, and has instead become even more rebellious.

If he were a child, Chen Shuting could have kept him in check by yelling at him a couple of times.

But now that the child is older, yelling at him only makes him feel worse.

"Xiaochen is a good kid."

"You're just too tense. You always feel like he's going to learn bad things from the police."

"There's really no need for that!"

After all, it's quite intriguing that they were able to persuade this plague god and get Gao Xiaochen to work so willingly.

"Actually, boys care about their image at any stage."

"So it's much better to talk to him indirectly than to confront him head-on!"

"Thank you. Yesterday was so sudden. I was really panicked when I found out he wasn't home."

"That's why I lost my composure for a moment and ran over here."

Chen Shuting felt a little guilty, since she came to find Xu Lei as soon as the incident happened.

It made him feel quite guilty, and he felt extremely anxious and helpless!

Not long after Chen Shuting left, Gao Qiqiang approached him, wanting to discuss the Mud Snail Village project.

Last time, he helped me retrieve Xiaolong's phone, along with the remaining hundred or so counterfeit phones.

Xu Lei knew he owed him a huge favor and couldn't turn his back on him.

“I said, Mr. Xu, you’re a very busy person, I know you won’t come looking for me on your own initiative.”

"So I came here first to talk to you about that project. What are your thoughts on it?"

Xu Lei saw that he really spoke frankly and directly, never beating around the bush, and there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"I just finished taking care of something at home. You're really something!"

“The contract for this project was just signed. You don’t need to wait even fifteen minutes. Come and find me directly.”

Xu Lei said jokingly, "Since we've become allies and are going to work together, the project in Mud Snail Village needs to be done sincerely so that it can truly succeed."

Otherwise, things will only get worse.

"By the way, Jiang Tian won't give up so easily."

"He even came to me yesterday, insisting that I play matchmaker and get him to have dinner with you!"

Xu Lei didn't expect Jiang Tian to be so fearless, having just caused him such a big mess.

I'm already thankful that I've been brought back from the dead and haven't caused any more trouble.

But he did it right, he turned around and bit back.

"I'm afraid those little devils will be troublesome!"

“Jiang Tian does have some influence here, I’m afraid…”

Gao Qiqiang was aware of all of this.

Xu Lei thought about it slowly. Once the project in Niluo Village started, it would attract the envy of countless people.

By then, it will be more than just being envious.

If he tries to cheat the project, he will bring a lot of trouble upon himself.

Xu Lei believes in doing things openly and honestly, and he doesn't want to complicate matters so much.

“You’re right. If Jiang Tian wants to see me, then you can help arrange a time.”

"Let's see when he's willing to have dinner together, but we need to make it clear that neither of us is allowed to bring anyone with us, and if we're going to talk business, we should talk business honestly."

"Stop with all that fancy stuff."

Gao Qiqiang was very excited when he heard this. Seeing that Xu Lei had already agreed, he rubbed his hands together silently, thinking that this matter should not be a big problem. He was extremely excited.

Xu Lei knew that they already had many projects in Niluo Village.

This could absolutely allow their business planning to reach a new level.

With this in mind, Xu Lei began to have even grander plans.

Gao Qiqiang knew that Xu Lei was quick-witted, hardworking, and always came up with ideas that were different from others.

Most importantly, he is sincere to people, which is rare in the business world!

Nowadays, everyone's mind is full of twists and turns. When businessmen do business, they prioritize profit and never care about so-called integrity.

But Xu Lei is different, which is why Gao Qiqiang is willing to cooperate with Xu Lei again.

I just felt that the things he did were more surprising than I had expected.

Since the previous incident, Chengcheng was assigned to this project by Xu Lei, and she has become more diligent and hardworking.

In a very short time, Chengcheng went through all the amounts and time involved in the entire project.

After finding no problems, it was handed over to Xu Lei for review.

Seeing the dark circles under Chengcheng's eyes, you could tell she had put some thought into this matter.

"This project has only just started; there hasn't even been a groundbreaking ceremony yet."

"Don't overwork yourself."

Seeing how hard Chengcheng was working, Xu Lei knew that she was just trying her best to show off.

She wanted to let him know that she wasn't just playing around, but rather wanted to use this opportunity to change her image in Xu Lei's eyes.

Xu Lei was well aware of all this, but he felt sorry for his woman.

“These are all things related to my major. Every time I see these things, I feel very excited and don’t even realize I’m crying.”

This was the first time Xu Lei had ever seen someone working overtime and being so excited, so he could only nod helplessly.

"Okay, as long as you don't feel tired, then go at your own pace!"

"But you must ensure your health. If I find out that you've ruined your health because of this project, I will immediately replace you as the project manager."

He put on a righteous and indignant air, which made Chengcheng very happy.

Xu Lei's thoughtfulness made Chengcheng realize that Xu Lei was genuinely good to her.

"Don't worry, I will make sure this project is completed smoothly."

Since Chengcheng had made this promise to herself, Xu Lei could only nod silently.

They first acquiesced to his actions, and were even more surprised. Chengcheng acted as if he didn't care about his life, relying on his reckless spirit.

That's why Chengcheng was able to climb from the lowest level of laborer to where she is today, which is why it's so impressive.

Chapter 192 Good Fortune

Meeting you is truly my blessing!

"I never imagined I would get to where I am today."

"I am truly shocked. I have to work hard to live up to your expectations of me, having such a good boss like you."

Seeing that he still had the mind to joke with him, Xu Lei knew that this girl wasn't exhausted yet.

Xu Lei recalled that when he and Chengcheng were working on the Green Water Street project, Chengcheng didn't close her eyes for three consecutive nights.

She was so exhausted that she couldn't even utter a word or drink a drop of water.

That was when I was truly exhausted.

Xu Lei wants Chengcheng to have an easier life with him now.

Instead of making yourself so tired~.

"Should I go over the procedures with the emcee for tomorrow's groundbreaking ceremony?"

Xu Lei has many projects under his management, but he still has to have dinner with Jiang Tian tonight.

After all, Gao Qiqiang had already mentioned it, so if he refused, he would lose face.

"Don't worry about such trivial matters as the groundbreaking ceremony."

Xu Lei has taken on many projects and has held countless groundbreaking ceremonies.

It's always just a formality.

Therefore, Xu Lei didn't think too much about such a small matter; on the contrary, he remained quite indifferent.

I thought there wouldn't be too many problems with this kind of thing, and I kept thinking about the dinner party tonight.

Jiang Tianhui is giving him some difficult problems. He can't get his hands on this piece of fat meat right now, and he's so anxious that he's jumping up and down in a panic.

"Jiang Tian, ​​what does he want with you?"

Chengcheng immediately sensed the danger in the situation.

Jiang Tian is a troublemaker; he has to meddle in everything, otherwise he won't feel comfortable.

"This guy isn't very shrewd in business. He didn't get involved in the Mud Snail Village project, and he's probably jumping up and down in frustration!"

"If I were to see you at this time, it probably wouldn't be anything good."

Xu Lei was well aware of this, and therefore, he had his own plans and ideas.

It won't be easily manipulated by others.

“I know all about these people’s ulterior motives, so I’ll just go and have a go to them tonight.”
