Chapter 315: What You Said Is So Despicable
After the weekend, Shen Chaoxi entered the intense stage of preparation for the final exams. In addition to the professional course tests this year, he also had to prepare the proposal for next year's graduation thesis, so you can imagine how busy he is.
As mid-June approached and the weather gradually became hotter, Shang Zhuoming went to the countryside for vacation with his grandparents again.
He calls it experiencing life, but in fact he is too noisy at home, making everyone in the family restless.
Before leaving, the little guy also took his Xixi and Chacha away.
Xixi and Qiaqia are the names of the dogs and cats in our family.
As soon as the little guy left, Shen Chaoxi felt relieved.
On Monday, as soon as Shen Chaoxi arrived at the professional class, he was called by the department head, so he had to go to the teaching and research office.
Director Jiang was sitting in his office. When he saw Shen Chaoxi knocking on the door, he stood up to greet her enthusiastically.
"Student Shen, how are you preparing for the final exams?"
"It's ok, is there anything I can help you with, Director?"
Director Jiang is about to retire in two years. He has gray hair, wears rimless glasses, looks radiant, speaks in a loud voice and is full of confidence. When he smiles, the whole office seems to tremble.
There is no need to be attentive.
Director Jiang smiled with wrinkles on his face, said a few words of concern and then got down to business.
"Student Shen, this is what happened. Director Luo from the School of Finance has contacted me several times, wanting me to put him in touch with Mr. Shang and see when he is free to give a small speech to this year's graduates to encourage them. Today's graduates are very confused. As graduation is approaching, they have no plans for their careers. How are they going to gain a foothold in society in the future?"
Director Jiang sounded quite upset when he said this, but actually he just wanted to find a good way out for this graduating class.
Let Shang Jianghan give a speech? It's not just a matter of speaking bold words, and it's even more impossible to simply paint a rosy picture for these young people. He can only come with a job.
Last year, Shang Jianghan got half of the jobs for the graduates with just one speech, so they naturally tasted the sweetness.
Naturally, the injection of fresh blood is also a great help to Lianzhong.
Shen Chaoxi calculated the time and said with some embarrassment: "Hey! Director, you should have told me earlier. It's too late. There's a graduation ceremony in ten days or so. He may not be able to spare the time in the next few days."
Director Jiang instantly lost his temper after hearing these few words.
"I understand. I know Mr. Shang is busy. How about this? Mr. Shang can set a time by himself. It's ok to take a little free time. Then the school will notify the students to come."
Shen Chaoxi thought about it and took out his cell phone from his pocket.
"There are hundreds of graduates in a class, from all over the world. It's not appropriate to go through so much trouble. I'll call him and ask if he can spare some time, right?"
When Director Jiang heard this, he knew that half of the matter was done. He rubbed his hands and said, "Great!"
In fact, in recent years, each college of Kyoto University has invited powerful domestic entrepreneurs to give speeches at this time. To put it bluntly, it is an on-site job fair. However, the number of recruitment positions in large enterprises is limited. Some have even poached talents in advance or hired talents who have returned from studying abroad, so the effect can be minimal.
Last year, Shang Jianghan's speech was worth more than a dozen speeches by entrepreneurs in Beijing University. The school was embarrassed to take advantage of Lianzhong, but this year, the number of recruitment vacancies for major companies is very small. Who wouldn't feel sorry to see the outstanding talents graduating this year without a stable place to stay and the talents being lost? For this matter, Director Luo of the Finance Department went to the school to find a solution, and some people pointed the finger at Director Luo.
"Director Luo, you have a big Buddha right now. You have to step in at the critical moment. Throughout the entire Shangjing City, the only company that can help Director Luo out of his urgent need is Lianzhong International. Isn't President Shang's wife in your department? Can you step in and make some connections? The students will always give you a face, right?"
What a insulting statement!
So, it seems that Jiang Weiping can't do it!
Seeing that Director Jiang didn't take the initiative, Director Luo would bring wine to his house every day to complain. The two lived in the same community and were alumni. They both stayed at the school to teach and had come this far step by step. They had a revolutionary friendship where everyone helped each other when they were in trouble.
Director Luo was drunk, and he waved his hand and took over the matter.
Shen Chaoxi had no idea about the twists and turns involved, so she dialed Shang Jianghan's private number.
The call was connected quickly, and Shen Chaoxi pressed the speakerphone in front of Director Luo.
She is also a matchmaker, and whether things succeed or not depends on human efforts.
"Well, no class?" The man on the other end of the phone had a low voice, and his words were full of the familiarity between husband and wife.
Director Jiang couldn't help but look up at his student.
The girl was able to marry the president of Lianzhong, not just because she is outstanding in appearance.
Shang Jianghan has Shen Chaoxi's detailed class schedule for five days a week. During this period of time, Shen Chaoxi should be taking a very important professional course. If he calls him, there must be something going on.
"Oh, I'm here with Director Luo. He wants to ask if you have time to give a speech at the Finance Department in the next few days?"
Director Luo was sweating in his heart. No, you are too direct. Shouldn’t you give some prelude, such as asking the other person what he is doing and whether he is busy?
Every time his wife called, she would first ask if he had time, and if he was busy, she would call back later.
Wouldn't that show more respect for the other person?
Isn’t Shen Chaoxi afraid of disturbing Mr. Shang’s important meeting?
There was silence for a moment on the other end of the phone, and then someone could be vaguely heard asking about the itinerary.
Afterwards, Shang Jianghan directly replied, "I don't have time. I have to go to Suzhou for a three-day business trip tomorrow. After I come back, I will go to the north for a two-day meeting. There will be an entrepreneur seminar in the city at the weekend, which will last for two days. I really don't have time before the end of the month."
Director Luo heard it clearly and felt disappointed. He was about to say it was okay and forget it since he didn't have time.
You can't just take advantage of the fact that your wife is the head of the department and use that to demand repayment!
Besides, Shen Chaoxi was admitted based on his own abilities, and they followed the admission procedures and did not give him any special treatment. On the contrary, Yao Ran's studio secured a number of employment positions for the Chinese Department, and Shen Chaoxi also introduced a lot of resources to a group of doctoral students in the department through his personal connections.
Shang Jianghan said, "Lianzhong has prepared 200 positions this year. I will ask the HR department to go there to negotiate with the school in a few days. As for the speech, forget it. Or you can call dad and see if Zhongchuang has any needs. It would be more appropriate for him to be the speaker for the Finance Department than for me."
Shang Jianghan paused in the meeting to answer the phone call, and at this time Feng Che came to urge him.
"Xixi, come over after school this afternoon. I have a meeting here. After it's over, I'll take you to eat seafood at the one in Mong Kok. You've been wanting to go there for a long time."
Shen Chaoxi didn't expect Shang Jianghan to speak so quickly. She quickly turned off the speakerphone, and the second half of his sentence disappeared in the receiver.
Director Jiang looked at the ceiling. Actually, it didn’t matter. He had a daughter who was in love recently and had been showing off their love in front of him and his lover.
