Before I came, a woman who sounded like a manager asked me to look for her in the office on the fourth floor of the building. I walked down the corridor to the fourth floor (there was no elevator, so it was like this at that time). My heart was beating wildly in my chest. It wasn't because I was tired of climbing the stairs, but because I was nervous about the upcoming interview. In the past, I rarely panicked like this when I faced many important exams in my life. At that time, I should have been young and impetuous. Now that I was almost fifty years old, I turned around and was like an animal waiting to be sold by the buyer. It was very difficult to face it with a normal heart. At this moment, his heart was inevitably filled with fear, helplessness, and resentment towards the turbulent situation in his life. In order to find a suitable "rice bowl", I tried my best to adjust my emotions. I wanted to drive away the huge shadow of the dirty side of the world from the bottom of my heart, and I tried my best not to let the remaining bit of sunlight that was getting lesser and lesser be blocked. Ever since I resigned, the space in my heart began to shrink. The originally small dimension gradually shrank into a point, and this point was getting smaller and smaller. It was so small that I couldn't even feel it. The only thing left was how to survive. Thinking back to the 20 years since I entered the factory in 1974 until I resigned as the director in 1998, I had a sky in my heart. Although people later said that fighting for the "cause" was "illusory", I gradually expanded my own sky in those 20 years of "illusory" struggle. In that space, I was so sacred that I almost never thought about living for myself. When the centrifugal force of the era threw me out of that space, I could no longer find the door to enter. The space that belonged to me after more than 20 years of hard work was lost. After losing my own space, I quickly shrunk into a "dot", and then the "dot" disappeared, leaving only my "survival" instinct.
I went up to the fourth floor. There were dark-colored glass doors at the entrances to the corridors on both sides. It could be seen that there were no doors at the entrances of the corridors in the original building. It was obvious that the doors were installed later. Standing in the narrow space with glass doors on both sides, I felt suffocated and depressed. In my opinion, dividing the interior of a grand building into small spaces is something that only an idiot would do. Facing the dark-colored glass doors that were closed on both sides, he wondered which side of the office was the female manager's office that he was looking for. There was no one here to ask. Just as I was hesitating about which door to knock on, the glass door on the right corridor opened a gap." What are you looking around for?”I was shocked by this sudden voice. This voice was so low and cold that it made me shudder. The voice came from the face behind the door. Although you couldn't see his eyes, you could tell that his eyes were fierce. I composed myself and asked him with a smile," I'm looking for China Travel Group.”"What is it?" "Job application." "Who asked you to come?" "Thank you, Miss." "Wait!" About twenty seconds later, half of a woman's face appeared through the crack of the door." You are?”"I called you yesterday and you asked me to come for an interview today.”"Oh, you're here!" Half of the woman's face turned away. "You can let him in!”After another ten seconds, the door opened a little more. It was still the voice of the man in sunglasses." Come in!”I turned sideways and walked into the corridor. Just as I was about to observe the environment inside, the voice stopped me again." Don't look around. Go inside. The door is open."”What kind of f * cking company is this? It's so mysterious and scary. Could it be a " underworld "? Her heart was in a mess, and she kept thinking about it. She was even worried about whether she could still walk out of here today. She started to regret coming in. However, it was too late to say anything. The door to the corridor behind him was closed. There was nothing to be afraid of. He could only brace himself and walk in.
The doors of the rooms on both sides of the corridor were closed, making the corridor very dim. The room that opened the door would shine into the corridor, so it was easy to tell which room was open. I went to the open door and looked inside. It was very bright inside. A large window was facing the door. This was an office with a window on the inside of the desk. A woman in her thirties in a pink short-sleeved shirt turned around from the chair she was sitting on. She was the one who asked the sunglasses man to let me in just now. There was no need to ask her anymore. She must be Miss Xie. I pulled the smile back to my face and stood at the door to greet her." Hello, Miss Xie.”"Come in." I walked into the office with an uneasy heart, still thinking about how I would get out if it was really the underworld. She pointed at the chair opposite her desk, indicating that I could sit there. I thanked her and sat down carefully. While she got up to get a cup of water for me, I quickly scanned the room without batting an eyelid. The office was spacious and bright. The repainted vermilion wood floor was wiped clean. The window was completely open, and a pot of begonia flowers was blooming on the table by the window. Behind me, there was an iron file cabinet that was as tall as a person. There was a pot of rattan plants, and the vines with tender green leaves naturally hung down from the cabinet. With this arrangement, the office had a warm feeling. There was no fear of the bodyguards in the corridor. Although it was midsummer and the temperature outside was already very high, the room did not feel too hot. The only thing that made me feel inadequate was that I didn't see a computer in the office. I wanted to work in a company that used a computer, not only because I learned how to use a computer, but also because I used a computer to judge whether a company was legal or not. In my opinion, companies that can equip computers have financial strength, and companies that can use computers have high quality people. My mind was filled with question marks. To be able to work in this old high-end building without even seeing a computer, what kind of company was this?
Looking at Miss Xie again, her beautiful face, slender and well-proportioned figure, shoulder-length curly hair, pink shirt, light-colored pleated long dress, and black high-heeled shoes all made people feel that she had a very elegant temperament. She brewed the tea and gently placed the glass teacup on the table in front of me. I stood up in fear and thanked her. "You're welcome. Sit down." She sat back down. At this moment, the dark glass door in the corridor and the face hidden by the sunglasses were all washed away by Miss Xie's elegant smile. It should be said that the first impression Miss Xie gave me was that she was reliable and safe. At least she didn't seem like a bad person. Perhaps I was too sensitive. I kept reminding myself not to let my guard down. I had to leave room for trust in everyone here, including Miss Xie, who was very polite to me. Because I always felt that Miss Xie's politeness to me was forced and unnatural. I always felt that there was something wrong with her. I desperately wanted to make the vague feeling clear. Oh, right, in her eyes, yes, the way she looks at me. Every time, under the cover of politeness, she would look at me with a strange gaze. I felt that it was not as simple as just looking at me. It was as if every bone in my body was seen through by her.
"What position are you applying for?" Miss Xie glanced at my face and asked. "I told you on the phone yesterday that I'm here to apply for the position of deputy general manager.”I answered her. "Can you do it? The requirements for this position are very high.”"It shouldn't be a problem. I used to be the head of a large state-owned enterprise for many years.”"That doesn't mean you can do it here.”"At least I can try." "We can't just let anyone try for such a high position.”"You guys are hiring, and I'm applying for the job, but you're rejecting me. What do you mean?”"We are no longer recruiting for this position.”"Then why are you still recruiting a deputy general manager at the agency?”"Someone has already applied before you.”"But the agent didn't tell me this.”"We haven't had time to inform the agent yet.”"But, you have to know that I paid the agent for the deputy general manager position.”"Oh, you don't have to rush. If you really want to apply, we still have a department manager vacancy here.”"What department?" "The HR department is where I'm sitting now.”"Why? Are you going to resign?" "What are you thinking? I'm working in this department temporarily.”"What was your original position?" "Oh, don't ask anything else. Just tell me if you're willing to apply for the position of department manager.”"How much is the salary of a department manager?”"1,200 yuan." "Why are there as many as the deputy general manager?”I didn't quite understand. "That's how the boss sets the salary. The main difference in income is the bonus.”she answered. I didn't dare to expect anything like a bonus to make a living in a private company. Since there was no difference in salary between the two positions, I could still do it. However, there was a prerequisite. It was better to figure out what kind of company this was first. Hence, he asked in a roundabout manner," Miss Xie, what does the company mainly do?”Miss Xie glanced at me again." We can't tell outsiders about the company's business scope. If you're hired, you'll know soon enough.”"Then, can you let me know the scope of business registered in the company's business license?”"Don't ask too much. It's really inconvenient for me to tell you.”At that time, when the private companies in the mainland were asked about some things, the answers were mostly hesitant and sneaky, making people confused.
