A voice disrupted the atmosphere in the room, causing the brows of three people to furrow.
However, as soon as the two interviewers recognized who was speaking, their furrowed brows relaxed and they stood up saying, "Manager Chu, you’re back."
"Manager Chu?" Zhang Zhiyuan always felt the voice sounded familiar, and as he heard footsteps approaching, he abruptly turned his head and his face instantly contorted with complexity.
The one who entered was Chu Ge, who passed by Zhang Zhiyuan with a teacup in hand, not even sparing him a glance, and went straight to his seat: "Have you just finished the interview?"
"Oh, yes!" The two interviewers exchanged glances, one of them quickly nodded to Chu Ge, while the other signaled with his eyes for Zhang Zhiyuan to leave.
However, before Zhang Zhiyuan could fully stand up, Chu Ge’s voice filled the room: "Since the interview is over, would it be alright if I ask a few minor questions?"
The two interviewers looked troubled, but Chu Ge made a final decision: "Let’s settle on that, Young Master Zhang, please sit back down?"
Facing Chu Ge’s arbitrary dominance, the two interviewers could only respond with helpless smiles, hoping at this point that Zhang Zhiyuan at least knew some professional knowledge and was not completely useless.
"You... how are you here?"
Zhang Zhiyuan’s emotions were indescribable, especially when he saw the chief examiner badge on Chu Ge’s chest, his mind buzzing as he froze on the spot.
Seeing Zhang Zhiyuan’s dumbfounded look, Chu Ge sneered and with a shake of his finger said, "Eldest Young Master, you seem quite surprised? Didn’t you say today you would show me who Jinxiu Group really belonged to? Please, begin your performance."
Zhang Zhiyuan remained stupefied throughout, but the interviewers sitting next to him inwardly sensed trouble.
Judging by Chu Ge’s tone, there was clearly enmity between the two!
While Zhang Zhiyuan was lost in thought, one of the interviewers leaned closer to Chu Ge and whispered in his ear: "Manager Chu, this Zhang Zhiyuan is the nephew of our company’s Public Relations Manager, Zhang Chengsheng, and Manager Zhang also specifically requested..."
"I believe I already stated this morning," Chu Ge glanced coldly at the interviewer: "Since when did the Planning Department get a say in HR matters?"
Intimidated by Chu Ge’s icy gaze, the interviewer bowed his head and dared not plead further.
After all, failing Zhang Chengsheng’s request might just cost a favor, but directly opposing Chu Ge at this moment could mean packing up and leaving!
After some time, Zhang Zhiyuan finally snapped out of his stupor. His gaze towards Chu Ge was still blank, tinged with disbelief.
Chu Ge, however, had no intention of wasting words and picked up a document from the table, reading aloud: "Regarding the future prospects and planning of Jinxiu Group, please share your views."
The content on the document was part of the interview, and of course, many interviewers would come up with a spontaneous question to observe a candidate’s performance on the spot.
Zhang Zhiyuan immediately stuttered, unable to articulate his thoughts; he didn’t even have a clear understanding of Jinxiu Group’s main business.
"There’s a time limit." Chu Ge narrowed his eyes and smiled, telling Zhang Zhiyuan: "You have only three minutes, if you exceed this time, it will be considered a failure, and Jinxiu Group will have nothing to do with you."
Zhang Zhiyuan gritted his teeth glaring at Chu Ge, this was clearly a personal vendetta!
But there was no choice, given the current situation was in no one’s favor, and Chu Ge indeed held the leverage over him.
Quickly, Zhang Zhiyuan’s expression transformed, and when he raised his head again, it bore a flattering smile: "Heh heh, Manager Chu. The misunderstanding earlier was indeed unfortunate! Please don’t take it to heart, overlook my petty offenses."
Seeing Chu Ge still unmoved, Zhang Zhiyuan gritted his teeth and continued: "Honestly, my uncle is Zhang Chengsheng, the manager of the Public Relations Department, and your colleague. How about, tonight, I set up a dinner as an apology?"
While saying this, Zhang Zhiyuan’s heart bled money. Hosting a dinner wasn’t just about the meal; envelopes and such became essential, and he was even prepared for a major financial outlay.
However, unexpectedly, Chu Ge’s expression suddenly turned cold: "Heh, lacking professional knowledge and now you plan to bribe the examiner? You don’t need to interview anymore."
"Manager Chu, the matter before was really..."
"My statement is clear. If you lack knowledge, at least have some decency. Leave quickly, don’t block the people interviewing after you."
Yet Chu Ge did not give him a chance to explain, dismissing him as if shooing away a fly.
"Fine, just you wait!" Zhang Zhiyuan was a person extremely concerned about face, and now being publicly humiliated by Chu Ge, he couldn’t bear it, harshly slamming the door as he left.
At the door, several young men and women were waiting, and upon seeing Zhang Zhiyuan come out, they quickly gathered around.
"Young Master Zhang, how did it go?" a man eagerly asked.
"How could it not be settled when Young Master Zhang steps in?" another man, seeking favor, flattered: "Hehe, Young Master Zhang_SESSIONDURATIONBEATE startDate=’2021-09-28’027_PROVINCE=’-05:00’ city=’New York City_ENDsession###
