Chapter 1314 Extra 1 What should Sister CuteCute do if she has no money?
Jade Bird Design Studio, a group of new people came for interviews today.
It is said to be a design studio, but it is actually a serious design company, with more than 200 employees in all departments.
HR is interviewing new people who came to apply today.
Various AI tools developed in the past few years can replace manual work in article writing, pattern design, etc. Even operating vehicles such as taxis and trucks have gradually been replaced by driverless vehicles.
However, although AI intelligence is very powerful and can write long articles, draw pictures according to requirements, and even convert text to video, it is not human after all and has an obvious flaw.
The articles or pictures it produces are just articles and pictures, without the emotions that people imbue it with when painting or writing articles.
Because of this, in this era when AI is prevalent, major companies have a higher demand for "talents", and design companies have a particularly prominent demand for personal abilities.
It requires some talents who are good enough in design understanding.
Normal ones don't work.
Today's wave of people who came for interviews included many recent graduates from major art academies. It cannot be said that there are no connections that can be used as cover-ups, but there are very few.
Cao Xuemeng was also among this group of interviewers. After graduating from high school, she relied on her hobbies and personal abilities to get admitted to Central America. She just graduated from Central America this month.
I did not continue my studies.
She didn't want to go back to work in her family's company now. She didn't tell her parents this time, so she happily decided to find a job in the capital that matched her major.
Cao Xuemeng has inspected and found that this Jade Bird Design Institute is good in all aspects and has strong strength. It has also received design orders from many large companies.
Xiaomi Group, the most famous company in Beijing, is his client.
There are many well-known companies further away, but they have nothing to do with Cao Xuemeng.
While waiting for the interview, Cao Xuemeng was also homesick.
According to her parents' request, they wanted her to go back as soon as possible after graduation and work in their own company.
Familiarize yourself with the company's business from the bottom first. When you are almost familiar with it and the opportunity is right, you can then attend important work positions.
But Cao Xuemeng felt that she had been in school for 20 years and was admitted to CAFA based on her IQ and hobbies. Is it really that bad?
Why should she go back to work in her family's company right after graduation?
She thought she would work hard on her own first.
While she was thinking wildly, Cao Xuemeng didn't hear anyone calling her name.
"Cao Xuemeng, is Cao Xuemeng here?"
"Cao Xuemeng?"
"Who is Cao Xuemeng? It's your interview time."
HR staff member Xu Chunlei shouted.
Only then did Cao Xuemeng come to her senses. She gathered her thoughts and quickly stood up and said, "I am Cao Xuemeng."
Xu Chunlei looked at her, her short hair looked particularly cool, she was not short, and she was very beautiful. She thought she couldn't be a vase, right?
Doesn't their company need vases?
"Come with me. My manager and the design manager will interview you later. Don't get distracted." Xu Chunlei reminded her that her character is not bad.
Cao Xuemeng thanked her, and then asked her: "Sister, I want to ask something."
"You said." Xu Chunlei is a recruitment specialist at Jade Bird Design Institute, responsible for the preliminary work of recruitment.
When she was thinking about what questions this little sister who had just graduated would ask, she heard her ask: "Sister, what are the salary and benefits like for the position I am applying for?"
"Salary?" Xu Chunlei really didn't expect that she would ask this.
"Do you have any work experience?" she asked.
Cao Xuemeng said: "I drew design drawings for my home, does that count?"
"My dad also said that the pictures I drew are really beautiful and can increase the sales of our products by 13 percentage points."
"..."
Xu Chunlei was unable to complain, what is all this?
She doesn't think Cao Xuemeng's family runs a business. If that's true, will Cao Xuemeng come to them for an interview?
So the statement just now was made up by her?
"Today's young people are really getting more and more impetuous and will do whatever it takes to find a good job. Why can't they be more down-to-earth and work hard?" Xu Chunlei thought.
When she arrived at the door of the interview room, Xu Chunlei didn't say how much the position would be, but signaled to Cao Xuemeng to hurry in.
"Hey, sister, you haven't said your salary yet?" Cao Xuemeng called to her.
It's a pity that Xu Chunlei has already informed the next person and has no time to talk to her.
Cao Xuemeng had no idea. After entering, she found three people in the room, two men and one woman.
The interviewer sat behind a long table with a black swivel chair in front of the table.
Cao Xuemeng also glanced around the room. There were no paper balls on the ground, and there were no garbage shovels and brooms scattered around. It seemed that there was no so-called "application guide" in the book.
"Hello, interviewers." She greeted.
The three people smiled and nodded, and the only female interviewer motioned for her to sit down.
"Your name is Cao Xuemeng, right?" All three of them have Cao Xuemeng's resume. It states that she graduated from Central Academy of Fine Arts and what awards her works have won. Other than that, her work experience is blank.
It's understandable, after all, I'm a fresh graduate.
"Three interviewers, I am Cao Xuemeng." Cao Xuemeng was neither humble nor overbearing, calm and composed.
To her, these are all small scenes.
"Cao Xuemeng, can you give a brief explanation of your personal abilities?" the male interviewer in the middle asked her.
Cao Xuemeng nodded and talked about her situation selectively. She also took out color-printed photos of some of her works for the three interviewers to see.
After she finished speaking, the three of them were actually quite satisfied with her.
After all, their academic qualifications are there, and they speak clearly and logically. As recruiters and design department heads of design companies, they naturally have basic judgments about these.
"So what do you think about salary, benefits, etc.?" the female interviewer asked her.
When it comes to this matter, Cao Xuemeng has a lot to say.
"I just came here, and I haven't shown my abilities in all aspects. You won't give me too high an income. How about a monthly salary of 20,000? My parents have been strict with my pocket money recently. No matter how low my salary is, it won't be enough." Cao Xue.
Meng said matter-of-factly.
Three interviewers: "..."
They all lost their voices. The next moment, they looked at Cao Xuemeng seriously to make sure she was not joking.
A monthly salary of 20,000 yuan, even today in 2030, is an absolutely high income.
The little sister in front of me who just graduated from Central America, why does she have the confidence to open her mouth like this?
Why don't you pay your parents for your pocket money? Is your salary too small to spend?
The three interviewers' good impressions of Cao Xuemeng were instantly wiped out.
But Cao Xuemeng observed her words and understood something immediately. She said: "Fifteen thousand is not impossible, I will save some money, and my ability is really strong. My teacher at Central America can testify to this."
Hearing what Cao Xuemeng said, the female interviewer asked her patiently: "Classmate Cao Xuemeng, who is your teacher?"
Cao Xuemeng mentioned a name, and he was indeed a very famous person.
For the sake of "teacher" Cao Xuemeng, the three interviewers re-evaluated and said to her: "Why don't you go back and wait for news?"
"Thank you!" Cao Xuemeng took her information and left.
Cao Xuemeng first returned to the house her parents bought for her in Beijing. She saw that she had to pay property fees, water, electricity and gas bills, her own phone bills, Internet fees, membership fees and other miscellaneous fees. Then she thought about how her parents were stuck.
Her bank cards and credit cards, she was a little decadent.
Her parents are so cruel. They have used all kinds of despicable tricks to force her to go back. Aren't they afraid of retribution?
Fortunately, the house had her name on it, so they couldn't sell it privately, otherwise Cao Xuemeng suspected that her parents must have more despicable means.
However, her house is in a high-end community, with a large area and higher property fees.
When she went for the interview, she told the interviewer that the salary was too low and it was not enough for her expenses. It was true!
After excluding these messy expenses, even if you have a salary of 15,000, you don't dare to spend the remaining money randomly. If you don't pay attention, you will spend more.
After all, there is a fee to use AI these days, and depending on the intelligence of the AI and the scope of the information collected, the charging prices are also graded and progressive. It is so expensive, how can it be used in vain?
She is already thinking about continuing the interview tomorrow, and also thinking about 'beautifying' her resume.
Damn you parents, why are you blocking my pocket money? There is a lot of money in the card that I earned myself, okay, so are you.
In the end, she had no choice but to borrow money from sister Xinyi and spend it.
"The banks are also colluding with each other. It's really abominable!"
Cao Xuemeng clenched her fists, bared her teeth and cursed.
…
Fortunately, three days later, Cao Xuemeng received a work notice from Jade Bird Design Institute, asking her to go to the designated hospital for a physical examination. If there was no problem, she could come to work.
Naturally, it went smoothly this time. Cao Xuemeng entered the design department of Jade Bird Design Institute and got the job opportunity she wanted.
However, when new employees arrive, they cannot take up the job directly. They also need various trainings, mentor new employees, and take them out into the society.
What is this?
Just one week has passed, and Cao Xuemeng is tired. She feels that this is a waste of time and life. The key is that eating out is too expensive and she has very little money.
Besides, she applied for the design department, not the business negotiation department, so why should she be asked to follow her to negotiate business? It’s nonsense!
But the department leader arranged it like this. After thinking about it, she decided to endure it first and wait until she got her salary.
Fortunately, after the first two weeks passed, Cao Xuemeng started to get involved in the formal design business and started working overtime day and night to catch up on the work.
According to the regulations of Jade Bird Design Institute, if a good work is selected by a customer, when the company completes the order, the designer will also receive a portion of the order commission.
Once you encounter a big order, the commission is also very considerable.
Cao Xuemeng still had some ideas in her mind.
She is very short of money now, and will soon have to borrow money to survive. She is looking forward to the end of this week, and next week will be the next month, and her salary will be paid.
Moreover, Jade Bird Design Institute pays last month’s salary on the 3rd of every month, which is very good and something Cao Xuemeng values very much.
The wealthy daughter of a billionaire has actually fallen to this level.
How embarrassed she was!
This is also the fundamental reason why she doesn't want to contact sister Xinyi and borrow money from her. Cao Xuemeng feels that she is too embarrassed.
As Cao Xuemeng worked overtime for wages, this month passed quietly. Cao Xuemeng worked for three full weeks in her first month of work. She felt that it was pretty good, and she had earned three-quarters of her basic salary.
.
…
——
While Cao Xuemeng was working hard to earn money, he was playing with his two-year-old daughter at the home of Cao Shujie, the village party secretary in Caojiazhuang.
After so many years of hard work, the old tree finally blossomed and gave birth to a precious fruit.
The key point is that the eldest brother graduated from college and the second child also went to high school. There was no need for him to come forward in the company. His wife was pregnant again at this time and gave birth to a little girl for him, which made Cao Shujie very happy.
I spent most of the month playing with my little girl at home.
This little guy is also smart, funny, and more thoughtful than her sister.
Cao Shujie really held it in his arms for fear of falling, and held it in his mouth for fear of melting. Even Cheng Xiaolin said in a sour tone that he only had eyes for girls and nothing else.
"Good guy, you are the one who is jealous of your daughter." Cao Shujie said to his wife.
By the time Cheng Xiaolin reacted and was about to kick him, Cao Shujie had already run out of the house with his little girl in his arms.
Even though he is 47 years old, his body is still quite agile based on long-term training.
Just after running out of home, Cao Shujie held a sun umbrella and took his daughter outside.
His parents and his parents-in-law set up a stall together, but now his parents only sell bread, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law now only sell eight-treasure porridge.
The four elderly people who are almost 70 years old are not as good as when they were young. Now they are old and just looking for something to occupy their days.
Giving yourself something to do is better than being idle.
Seeing their little granddaughter (little granddaughter) coming over, the four old people couldn't tolerate anything else in their eyes, and they didn't care about the stalls. People who came to visit could take whatever they wanted, and they could pay for it themselves.
Looking at her little granddaughter, Wang Yuelan thought of her eldest granddaughter Mengmeng again, and asked her son: "Shujie, why didn't you ask how Mengmeng is doing now?"
"Mom, she just graduated. What else can she do? She will come back after a while when she can't stand being outside." Cao Shujie said.
Mengmeng has lived a life with no shortage of money since she was a child. Although she is not a lavish spender, some consumption habits are difficult to change once they are formed.
Especially downgrading your own consumption is quite difficult.
Wang Yuelan sighed: "Oh, Mengmeng hasn't come back for several months. I don't know if she can eat enough now? Has she lost weight again?"
Cao Shujie pouted: "Mom, don't worry about her, she's fine."
Cao Shujie wanted to laugh when he thought of his daughter sending him a message saying that he maliciously deducted her pocket money.
"Nuan Nuan, your sister has no money to spend. She is going to get angry. When she comes back, you will ask her to act coquettishly and ask for money." Cao Shujie said to his little girl.
When the little guy heard what his father said, he kept shouting: "Sister, sister!"
"Dad, where is my sister?" she asked.
Cao Shujie said: "Your sister is in the capital."
…
Jade Bird Design Institute, this month has been really difficult for Cao Xuemeng. She has been eating instant noodles for several days and finally waited for the day when her salary is paid.
The sky is full of blessings from gods and Buddhas. Please post more today.
But it's a pity that after deducting insurance and personal tax last month, she only received 7,944.3 yuan from the salary card she just applied for.
"Oh my god, how can I spend this little money? I won't have much left to pay property fees." Cao Xuemeng went crazy when she thought about waiting for a month and still not having much money. ()
