Xu Mengyuan's hand that had been sketching stopped and said, "I'm happy to explain it to you now, but it's probably hard for you to believe it if I just say it verbally, so... my suggestion is to wait until you join the job.
, after completing the first day of work, if you still have any questions, please feel free to come to the Human Resources Department to see me."
"What job do I want to do?"
"As the recruitment information says, it is mainly about 'information collection and analysis, providing strategic planning and organizational structure adjustment plans to customers'..."
"Is it legal?"
"Of course, Third Century is a joint-stock company that operates completely in compliance with the law. We never do anything illegal or disciplinary. Therefore, we also strongly recommend that our employees abide by relevant laws, regulations and public order and good customs in their daily lives."
After Xu Mengyuan finished speaking, she looked at Li Yu and said warmly, "If you have no other questions, then we will continue the interview."
Li Yu nodded after being silent for a moment.
"Very well, back to the previous question, how much do you know about the gods?"
"I have read Neil Gaiman's version of "Norse Gods", Fang Long's "Stories of the Bible", Yuan Ke's "Chinese Mysterious Stories", and Ai Craftsman's "Cthulhu Mythos", if that counts,
Uh, part of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", and I also watched some scattered lectures on Taoism and Buddhism on station b. Besides that, there are some popular film and television and literary works, Brother Chui's Thor series and so on."
Li Yu said while recalling relevant knowledge in his mind.
"Oh, you mentioned Marvel, what do you think of the multiverse hypothesis or similar concepts popularized by Marvel." Xu Mengyuan's questions began to become more and more irrelevant.
"I don't know much about string theory, but a theory that is not falsifiable always feels that... it is still a little far from science." Li Yu paused and added, "But the concept of multiverses is indeed very important to art.
The creation has had a lot of influence. If I remember correctly, the concept of planes is a reference to the multiverse theory. It should have originated from a DND setting book called "Exotic Landscapes".
"That book divided the planes into main planes, outer planes, inner planes, transitional planes and demiplanes, which was widely used in later online novels."
Xu Mengyuan was noncommittal, but she seemed quite satisfied with Li Yu's answer and smiled, "Great, you are indeed the person we are looking for. I have one last question left -"
She said while turning the gel pen in her hand. Just when Li Yu thought she would come up with some wild and unconstrained ideas, Xu Mengyuan said unexpectedly.
"Can you adapt to high-intensity business travel? Because the position you are applying for requires frequent business trips."
Li Yu was slightly relieved when he encountered a normal question. Moreover, he had prepared for this question before and the answer was effortless.
"I heard that there are a lot of business trips in the management consulting industry, and I am on the road almost every day. I am mentally prepared for this. I am only 25 this year and have no plans to start a family yet. The impact of business trips on me is not that big."
"That's such a pity." Xu Mengyuan didn't know what she was referring to.
But after saying this, she put down the folder and gel pen in her hand, and stretched out her hand to Li Yu again, "Congratulations, you are hired."
"Um?"
"Welcome to the Third Age family, Mr. Li Yu, when will you be able to join the company soon? We have a new project on hand and we are really short of manpower right now."
"Wait a minute, you just asked me a few questions, and except for the last one, most of them have nothing to do with work. In addition, you said that you are from the human resources department. When recruiting, don't you need to go through the department supervisor and the general manager?
Can the leader's consent make the final decision?" Li Yu became increasingly puzzled.
"I have said before that our process is different from other companies. We only have one round of written examination and one round of interviews, but I believe we have collected all the information needed to make a decision. As for the supervisor...
"Every employee in your department is directly responsible to the board of directors and does not have a direct boss. Those directors are usually very busy and they are usually away from the company."
Xu Mengyuan patiently answered various questions raised by Li Yu as always.
However, Li Yu's doubts deepened after hearing this. He glanced at the folder that Ms. HR had just put down with the corner of his eye, and found that there was only a blank piece of paper in it.
No, that may not be accurate, because after Xu Mengyuan’s previous efforts, there is now a Peppa Pig holding a hairdryer on the white paper.
Li Yu remained calm, shook hands with Xu Mengyuan again and said, "I need some time to think about it. Can I give you a reply tomorrow?"
"What are you considering? Opportunities from other companies? Spark Media, Lingyue and Wanwei Technology, at most add a heart-throb... These are the four best offers you have, right? The salary packages they can offer, regardless of
They can’t compare to us in any aspect.”
"At least they won't invade my privacy during the background check." Since Xu Mengyuan had already said this, Li Yu simply stopped being secretive and said in a deep voice.
Although he could not find any negative information about this company on the Internet before, from that somewhat random written test to this interview that is even more deviant from common sense, coupled with the incredibly generous offer from the Third Century
Remuneration.
The further back Li Yu went, the stronger his sense of vigilance became.
What he was considering was just an excuse. Li Yu actually no longer planned to have any contact with this weird company, not to mention that Xu Mengyuan had even found out how many offers he had. This was obviously beyond the scope of the background investigation.
.
Xu Mengyuan was not in a hurry, and just watched Li Yu pack his things. It wasn't until Li Yu had already stepped out of the conference room door that she spoke leisurely again.
"Do you really want to go back to your old life?"
Li Yu paused slightly.
"It's been a long time... that feeling of being trapped. Although the body is still alive, able to eat and live normally, and continues to function under social rules, and behaves no differently than other people around me, deep down inside, it has gradually
After dying, becoming numb and hollow, like a walking zombie, aren't you going to struggle again?
"What exactly do you do? Is it a new type of MLM company? You go around looking for targets in trouble, and then use their eagerness to change their lives to squeeze out the last penny from their wallets? This is your usual method."
Li Yu said, "But this trick is of no use to me."
"Let's take another gamble." Xu Mengyuan did not answer Li Yu's question directly this time, but said sincerely.
"Not only do we need you, you also need us. If you just leave like this, you can indeed minimize the risk, but no matter which company you choose to work for in the future, you will just repeat your previous life."
"This is part-time work, it's the same for everyone. Why, is it possible to get the meaning of life by selling my labor force to you?"
"The meaning of life is not given by others, but must be found by yourself. Fortunately for you, you have an opportunity now." Xu Mengyuan murmured softly, "If you swallow the red pill, you will stay in Wonderland.
, I’ll show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.”
"The Matrix, Morpheus." Li Yu raised his eyebrows.
"I really like that movie. How about it, are you ready to go down the rabbit hole, Mr. Li Yu?" Xu Mengyuan said meaningfully.
