I'm back in 1990

Chapter 261: Cultivating Your Own Business Team

After the meal, Huang Xiaochuan thanked Sang Weihong: "Senior, the food today was really good, thank you for spending so much."

Sang Weihong was unimpressed: "Come on! Do you think I'm blind? You guys are always staring at each other while eating, you're completely distracted, what's going on?"

Ding Yi heard every word of this and felt a little embarrassed. After all, he had feelings for Qi Huan, and he felt guilty! Despite his usual domineering manner, he was actually quite vulnerable when it came to matters of the heart. He was afraid of being hurt again, like someone who had been bitten once and was afraid of being hurt for ten years.

Seeing that Sang Weihong had exposed his secret, he quickly made an excuse and left. Chen Zhe glanced at Ding Yi's back and then at Huang Xiaochuan and Sang Weihong, and also wisely made an excuse to leave.

Huang Xiaochuan couldn't help but complain to Sang Weihong, "Senior, people say you shouldn't expose someone you see through, but you've really surprised him! Maybe you've extinguished the little flame of love that Lao Ding just started to have?"

"Hey! What's going on here?" Sang Weihong was completely confused by Huang Xiaochuan's words, because she had no idea what was going on.

Seeing that Sang Weihong didn't seem to be faking it, Huang Xiaochuan knew he had misunderstood her and wanted to find an excuse to leave.

"I was being naive, I'm so sorry. If there's nothing else, senior, shall we call it a day?" Huang Xiaochuan said, and then turned to leave.

Sang Weihong blocked Huang Xiaochuan's path, her eyebrows furrowed: "You make it sound so easy. Explain yourself clearly, or you're not leaving."

Seeing that he couldn't get away, Huang Xiaochuan recounted the events of last semester to Sang Weihong. It was quite a coincidence that the two parties involved met again today, and Ding Yi seemed to have feelings for that senior student Qi. After Sang Weihong accidentally revealed Ding Yi's feelings, judging from Ding Yi's reaction, it was probably pretty much what Huang Xiaochuan had guessed.

Sang Weihong went from being shocked to bursting into laughter while clutching her stomach, and finally squatted on the ground, unable to get up.

Sang Weihong squatted on the ground, covering her forehead and laughing uproariously, "Your analysis makes a lot of sense. I don't know anything about that girl, but your roommate definitely likes her. What a coincidence! He was saved by her butt, hahaha! Let me laugh a little longer!"

Huang Xiaochuan asked hesitantly, "Senior, can I?"

Huang Xiaochuan asked if they could leave, and Sang Weihong immediately stood up.

"Wait a minute, I almost forgot to ask you something. Your classmate was here, so it wasn't convenient for me to ask you earlier."

"What's wrong?"

"I've heard you're quite capable, haven't I?"

Huang Xiaochuan was a little confused. Why would Sang Weihong ask such a question?

"What makes you say that, senior?"

"Keep pretending! Jiang Bixing already said so."

Huang Xiaochuan was a little confused. What did Jiang Bixing say? I don't think I revealed my true situation to Jiang Bixing.

Seeing that Huang Xiaochuan was still scratching his head, Sang Weihong said, "It was Jiang Bixing who said it himself. He didn't want to go to the unit he was originally assigned to, but you helped him contact a Hong Kong company."

Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaochuan immediately understood.

He readily nodded and admitted, "I helped him find connections for this."

"So you're really resourceful! A Hong Kong company! And you're getting an annual salary, wow, I really didn't know you had these connections. How did you get to know them?"

Huang Xiaochuan casually rearranged the story, saying, "We met by chance. It just so happened that the Hong Kong company was planning to expand into the retail market in mainland China and was looking to recruit some highly educated managers. I thought that Senior Jiang Bixing originally liked to do some small business and didn't want to go to the new unit he was assigned to, so I acted as a go-between."

"You know what? Some people in our class have heard about this and are thinking of getting to know you. Could you recommend them to this Hong Kong company?"

"Huh? Is that so? I introduced Lao Jiang to this company because his assigned unit wasn't related to his major and it was so far away. His grandmother's health isn't good either, how could she possibly go to the mountains with him? What are other people doing here?"

"But those people don't know! That day, Jiang Bixing treated us to dinner, and after drinking too much, he accidentally let slip that he was receiving an annual salary."

Huang Xiaochuan was delighted with Jiang Bixing's behavior. Before even officially starting his job, Jiang Bixing was already pulling off this blatant scheme of spending a fortune to acquire talent. It seemed that Jiang Bixing was planning to build his own team, and Huang Xiaochuan hadn't misjudged him!

"Huang Xiaochuan, Jiang Bixing said he earns an annual salary of HK$40,000? Is that true or false?"

This is certainly true. Jiang Bixing's current monthly salary is around 3,400 yuan, which is considered the highest salary in mainland China. However, it is far from the average monthly income in Hong Kong. Since the company is currently located in mainland China, Jiang Bixing's salary is temporarily set at a midpoint based on the situation in both places. His salary will be readjusted according to his position once he officially takes office.

However, stock options are a different matter. To exercise them, certain conditions must be met. During this period, Jiang Bixing also needs to eat and make a living, and receiving a salary is a must.

It truly made many people envious.

"Senior, the average monthly salary in Hong Kong is around seven thousand Hong Kong dollars. Old Jiang only earns half of that. If his salary were in Hong Kong, it wouldn't even be enough for him to eat and rent a place. But here, it's quite a lot."

"Now that Jiang Bixing is about to live and work here with a Hong Kong salary, some people also want to use their connections to get into this company. They don't know you, but they don't know who told them that I know you, so they come to me."

Huang Xiaochuan feigned sudden realization: "So that's why you invited me to dinner?"

Sang Weihong glared at Huang Xiaochuan unhappily: "These are two different things. I thought since I saw you today, I might as well tell you. If you can help ask, then ask. If not, then forget it. I'll just tell them it won't work. I didn't make any promises to anyone."

Huang Xiaochuan couldn't help but laugh: "I'm speechless. Why don't they just go directly to Lao Jiang? Lao Jiang is currently undergoing training abroad, and I heard he'll be a senior executive when he returns. Besides, the new company will definitely need highly educated talent, and we're all alumni. Lao Jiang will definitely help out."

"We can't get in touch with Jiang Bixing right now! It's easier to find you. What if by the time Jiang Bixing comes back, everyone has already been recruited?"

Huang Xiaochuan suddenly thought of something: "Senior, could it be that you want to work for this company?"

Sang Weihong quickly denied it: "It wasn't me. If it were me, why would I beat around the bush with you? I would just tell you directly."

"I thought it was you. Well then, since you're the one who asked me, have those people prepare a resume for me, and I'll send it over for them. As for whether they'll accept it or not, I can't guarantee it."

Huang Xiaochuan originally had the idea of ​​cultivating business talent in the long term, but the current situation is that there is a lack of professional talent in the large-scale retail industry in China. Everyone has their own expertise. It is easy to find grassroots employees, as there are a large number of laid-off workers. However, in the mainland, people with management experience and experience in managing large supermarkets are as rare as pandas. The very few who are still in the system cannot be recruited for the time being. Therefore, Huang Xiaochuan had no choice but to ask Cao Charlie to hire a headhunting company to recruit managers for the retail industry.

These people are just one part of Huang Xiaochuan's plan to "borrow a chicken to lay an egg." Huang Xiaochuan envisions that the future managers of retail enterprises must be from mainland China, so now he needs to consider recruiting some college students. However, college students are currently assigned jobs according to the plan, and very few are willing to give up their assigned jobs. Moreover, the two-way selection will not be implemented for another two years.

Sang Weihong took the initiative to ask him for help, but in fact, she helped Huang Xiaochuan.

Seeing that Huang Xiaochuan agreed to help, Sang Weihong smiled and said, "You're not the big boss of the Hong Kong company, so of course you can't guarantee anything. Whether it works out or not is none of your business. You just need to help make the connection."

Upon hearing Sang Weihong's words, Huang Xiaochuan could only give an awkward laugh.
