Mai Yan smiled and said, “You eat too much, I can't afford to keep you. What I mean is, you need to change your work environment. You've been working in Xinyang Town since high school, so you must know a lot of people there. Xinyang Town is a mixed bag of people, and because of its unique location, it's a high-crime area. Now that you're involved in transporting counterfeit goods, if people need help in the future, they'll definitely come to you. So……”
Nie Zuo said, “But Big Brother treats me well, and he runs a legitimate business. His math is terrible; if I don’t help him, he probably won’t be able to balance the books.” Selling out a brother!
“I didn’t say you can’t see him anymore, I just said you need to change your work environment. Meng’s mother moved three times for her son, and the environment you’re in determines the people you meet. If you’re in a different environment, you won’t be tempted to do bad things again.”
Nie Zuo asked, “Mai Zi, what do you mean?”
“Considering our relationship and the long-term perspective, I think you should quit the fruit shop job. When I had lunch with the HR team today, they mentioned that headquarters is about to recruit a group of new employees. When you were an exchange student in the UK, didn’t you take a course on market information collection?”
Nie Zuo nodded, “I minored in it for half a year, but the course was discontinued by the school because it was considered sensitive.”
“That’s enough, you’ve taken half a year of classes, right? Let me tell you, a while ago, something big happened at the Dongcheng Guoye Group—their trade secrets were stolen by the Japanese. Headquarters is taking it very seriously, so they’re planning to set up a new department called the Internal Affairs Department. They were originally going to select people from the security team and have the white-collar crime investigation unit of the police provide training. But Liu Ziping brought in an expert and decided to form his own team. Your resume shows you’ve studied the theory for half a year, and that’s sufficient.”
“Isn’t this just selecting security guards?” This seems kind of hasty, although the nature is similar, it’s still not about catching real thieves.
Mai Yan misunderstood Nie Zuo’s meaning and said, “Take it step by step, man. Most of the security guards at the Wanlian International headquarters are highly educated professionals. I’ve inquired about it; the salary is 5,000 per month, and the working hours are fairly flexible.”
“5,000?” Nie Zuo asked in return.
Mai Yan thought for a moment, “You studied under a famous professor in the UK for a whole year. It’s a time when they’re short of people, so you might be directly promoted to manager.”
“Mai Zi, that was a government-certified diploma mill in the UK, and it was just a minor course that only lasted half a year. The main reason I chose the course was because attendance wasn’t mandatory.”
Mai Yan looked at Nie Zuo, “Man, I’ve been having lunch with the HR people for days. Currently, the sales department is short of people, but the workload is too intense, and you’re not good at selling products. You don’t have the thick skin for it. The administration department mainly needs women, and the office politics are too complicated. You’d need high emotional intelligence to handle it, and I’m afraid you wouldn’t be able to take it. The Internal Affairs Department is a new department, and it’s easy to get by in a new department. Even if it’s dissolved in a few months, headquarters will still properly arrange for the staff’s future.”
Nie Zuo said, “Mai Zi, if you don’t want me to go to Xinyang Town, I won’t go. I’ll figure out a job on my own.”
'Left, this is an opportunity, an opportunity to join Wanyuan International. As administrative staff, we are well aware that Wanyuan International is like a kingdom. Today you are a security guard, but maybe tomorrow you'll be a manager. The opportunities here are far more than outside. Even if, at the very least, you spend a year working for Wanyuan International before jumping ship, it will be a resume addition that scores points for you.'
Niejiao understood that Maiyan had been working late and competing with him today, which must have taken quite a bit of preparation. He was touched in his heart, nodded, and said, 'Alright.'
'I knew you'd agree.'
Niejiao held Maiyan's hand and said, 'Nothing in the world is more important than you.'
'Cut the cheesy stuff, we're old married folks.' Maiyan smiled happily, 'The meal is served, there's something to eat, I'm so hungry, so hungry.'
Returning Maiyan to the Wanyuan apartment building was already three in the morning. Niejiao hailed a taxi to Xishi Road. Xishi Road has a Rongyao residential area, where Niejiao rented a two-bedroom apartment. The landlord was a friend of Xiao Yun, so the rent was naturally lower.
A private detective from Qitian Investigation Agency followed Niejiao to the Rongyao residential area and watched as he entered Building 5. Only then did the car drive away. As soon as the other left, Niejiao's phone vibrated. In the elevator, after pressing the 18th floor button, he answered the phone, 'Hello!'
Someone has hired Qitian Investigation Agency to film and record your life, especially to document whether you have any bad habits. The focus is on the four items of hiring ~ prostitutes, drug use, heavy drinking, and bar-hopping. The commission is 13,000 yuan, and the work is for three weekdays, which is the first day today.
Niejiao was puzzled: 'Why?'
The other replied: 'Yeah, why? Xiao Yun and I don't understand this assignment at all.'
'Who is the client?'
'They are called Zheng Cuихua.' asked the other. 'Do you want to have your photo deleted?'
'Don't bother, have you not fallen asleep yet, brother?'"
'If you're being followed, how could I sleep?' the other whispered. 'I suspect you were kicked out by your sister-in-law, but he's not admitting it.'
'Ten to one chance. Xiehua, I'll treat you to a drink some other day, okay? Goodbye.'
GoodNight.
Nai zuo hung up the phone, opened the door of his room, pressed his hand against the wooden door and waited for a moment before pushing the door open. After closing the door, he didn't turn on the main light, but went to the living room and turned on the table lamp. He took a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator and sat down. After allowing his body, which had been tired for a day, to relax, Nai Zuo picked up his phone, removed the back cover, inverted the second card and inserted it into the card slot, and then entered the password, dialed the phone, and spoke in English: "I need to change an account... Thank you.

Is a business based on people or money? This question seems to be a false proposition, because everyone would choose the former. Chairman Liu Ziping of the Wanlian International Board of Directors has a different view. He believes that in modern society, money is the mainstream value. Even if you deny it, the mainstream is still the mainstream. To be based on money is to be based on people. A company is like an ant nest, where worker ants build nests, build nests, and look for food for the sake of a stronger ant nest. Similarly, a stronger ant nest will bring material benefits to every worker ant.
A company does not need moral teachings. If you can contribute to the company, you are useful to the company. What management needs to do is to reward your contributions.
Hold the best. This is the slogan of Wanlian International, and it is also the creed that Liu Ziping created this business empire. These four words are engraved on the door of Wanlian International's office area, inspiring all of Wanlian International's employees.
Nai Zuo, who was dressed in a cheap black suit and leather shoes, glanced at the gold words of the best winners, and had a number in mind. Liu Ziping is a typical advocate of Darwin's jungle survival philosophy. The weak feed on the strong, and the strong survive. To survive, it's best to always stand at the top of the food chain.
