Great God, Where Are You?!

Late at night, Lu Bo dragged his exhausted yet excited body home.

Tap tap tap~

The sound of typing rose as Lu Bo typed away on the forum.

The boss had met with several headhunters. It looked like he was recruiting, but Ningzhou City's talent pool was simply too small.

There were hardly any truly capable people.

Then I'll help the boss out!

The corners of Lu Bo's mouth lifted, the joy in his heart nearly bursting out.

"I work under Code K, haha! I interviewed today, and I never expected to end up working under the great Code K! My monthly salary is thirty thousand. Anyone interested?"

Lu Bo posted the forum thread.

A crowd immediately came over to watch the spectacle.

"You're full of it. A monthly salary of thirty thousand? You're probably just an Ordinary Level programmer."

"Exactly. Looking at your level, you've only just entered Hard Level. You say you work under Great God Code K? Code K is the great god we all worship, someone forever beyond our reach. We can only admire him. Great God, if I could have even one ten-thousandth of your ability, that would be enough!"

Seeing the forum full of people mocking him, Lu Bo could no longer take it.

He had told the truth, yet they still did not believe him. Damn it.

Post the screenshot!

Without another word, he directly posted a screenshot of the backend data. It showed the X System's number of activations, stable trend lines, and more.

The moment the screenshot appeared—

The entire forum instantly fell silent. Lu Bo thought the site had crashed. He refreshed it repeatedly, but no one continued replying.

Not until a full minute had passed.

"Holy crap, it's real? There are no signs of Photoshop or editing! This is X System backend data!"

"Damn it, I stared at this for a whole minute. Brother, where are you? I'm coming to find you!"

"Second floor, can you delete your comment and let me speak?"

Seeing the forum explode, Lu Bo was incredibly excited. Let's see if you still doubt me now. You're all pumped up like you've been injected with chicken blood. I wonder if any of you can still sleep tonight!

"Great God K is in Ningzhou City, at Future Technology Crystal Company. Let me secretly tell you some good news: the boss has been recruiting programmers lately. If you get here early, you might even be able to interview and join our company!"

The moment Lu Bo said that, the forum erupted again.

Quite a few people immediately bought plane tickets. Those unable to get flights booked high-speed rail tickets. As long as it was the fastest transportation to Ningzhou City, they booked it.

Early the next morning.

June 20th. There were still eight days until the Four Major Mobile Phone Groups' Press Conference.

The internet was filled with rumors that Huawei had developed a new Mobile Phone System, a system independently owned by China. The news spread like wildfire.

Meanwhile, Ye Fan was still constantly recruiting employees. There were simply too few people.

Keeping a company running was far too difficult.

The current orders alone had already overwhelmed the employees.

Even counting everyone, the entire company currently had fewer than four or five people.

Nanshan City Headhunting Company.

The headhunting company's owner, Zhao Qinghai, was pouring tea for Ye Fan and flattering him every way he could.

"Haha, Brother Ye, don't worry. As long as the bounty is high enough, I can even bring you Huawei graduates!"

Zhao Qinghai laughed heartily.

"Oh? Then get me one. The bounty isn't a problem!" Ye Fan said, looking at Zhao Qinghai very seriously.

Zhao Qinghai's eye twitched.

Damn it.

I was just joking.

A Huawei graduate? Are you trying to make trouble? Their salaries were already so high. Even if you offered more, they might not be willing to come.

"Brother, I was just joking, just joking. Well, they should be here in half an hour."

Under Zhao Qinghai's meticulous service and care, half an hour finally passed. Ye Fan felt uncomfortable all over.

Whenever his tea ran low, Zhao Qinghai refilled it.

He fussed over him constantly, attending to every little detail.

"Screech—"

A Buick L8 business van stopped at the entrance. Seven people stepped out, some dressed casually and others looking sharp and capable.

Yet not one of them wore a suit.

This was a small city, a fifth-tier city. Anyone walking down the street in a suit was basically either a salesperson or worked at a hair salon.

Other than that, no white-collar worker or company employee wore suits.

"Boss, traffic was terrible on the way here. We're late, sorry!" the driver apologized as soon as he entered.

Then the group gradually entered the room.

Instead of blaming the driver, Zhao Qinghai excitedly rose to his feet. Looking at the seven people entering, he happily said, "Brother Ye, this is Wang Dahai. He's thirty-seven years old and one of the best in Offline Electronic Commerce. He's a Gold Medal Salesperson, a truly outstanding talent!"

"And this is Qin Feng. He specializes in Computer Technology and is a great god. Brother Ye, do you know Program Network? It has three levels: Ordinary, Hard, and God-tier. Qin Feng is God-tier. I had to use a lot of connections to bring him here!"

"This one—"

As he listened to Zhao Qinghai's ongoing introductions, Ye Fan's brow gradually furrowed.

Zhao Qinghai was somewhat unreliable.

While Zhao Qinghai introduced them, Ye Fan searched for these people in his specially customized X System. He discovered that they were not what Zhao Qinghai claimed.

For example, Qin Feng was clearly only a Hard Level technician, yet Zhao Qinghai insisted on calling him God-tier.

And Wang Dahai, a Gold Medal Salesperson?

He was only a Gold Medal Salesperson at their tiny company, closing just a few deals each month. It was probably just luck.

He had some connections, so his value had been inflated considerably.

But none of these people were what he wanted.

As Zhao Qinghai introduced them, he watched Ye Fan's expression.

He was afraid Ye Fan would be dissatisfied.

Meanwhile, the seven applicants were sizing Ye Fan up. They found him extremely young. They had thought he would be some major boss.

With such high salaries, could he be some rich young heir who wanted to start a company for fun?

"Boss Zhao, forgive me for being blunt, but I have something to do. I'll be leaving," Wang Dahai suddenly said while Zhao Qinghai was introducing them with a smile.

Zhao Qinghai froze. What did that mean?

Wasn't it obvious?

He simply did not want to work for Ye Fan.

That made Zhao Qinghai lose face.

The other six looked at Wang Dahai, unsure what he was trying to pull.

"Ahem. Well, young man, what kind of company is yours? How long has it been operating, and what is its main business?" Qin Feng spoke up from the side as the atmosphere grew awkward.

Seeing that things were going wrong, Zhao Qinghai's face grew increasingly strained, and a nameless fire burned in his heart.

You're humiliating me.

"It's a technology company. We mainly research technology and sell it, developing new technologies. The company has only been open for less than a week," Ye Fan said calmly.

He was completely at ease.

Hearing that, everyone froze.

Tsk.

Wang Dahai snickered beside him and exchanged a glance with Qin Feng. The disdain in their eyes was obvious.

Wasn't it clear enough? This was just some rich kid fooling around for fun.

Wasn't this a waste of everyone's time?

Fortunately, they had not quit their jobs. Otherwise, they would have wasted their time here and lost their former jobs as well.

That would have been truly disastrous.

The other five were not fools. They could tell from the look Wang Dahai and Qin Feng exchanged.

This was obviously a rich young heir.

"Alright, Boss Zhao, I won't take up any more of your time. I'm leaving."

Ye Fan stood up.

"Huh? Leaving? What's wrong? You didn't like a single one of them?"

Zhao Qinghai asked anxiously.

Ye Fan shook his head slightly. "No. None of them qualify. Forget it. Help me keep looking. The bounty is not a problem. You can poach people from other cities if necessary!"

Hearing Ye Fan's words, Wang Dahai and Qin Feng seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world.

They all laughed mockingly.

Some even laughed out loud.

Seeing that they seemed unconvinced, Ye Fan did not say anything more.

But Wang Dahai and Qin Feng were extremely displeased with Ye Fan.

"What makes you think we aren't qualified?"

"Yeah, what makes you think so?"

Qin Feng said with an unhappy expression, while the others shouted as well. They were all at the top of their fields. Saying that was a little hurtful, wasn't it?

Just as Ye Fan was about to respond—

Bang!

"Great God! Where is the Great God? Isn't the Great God here?"

"Lu Bo said it was here! The Great God came here to recruit talent, but where is he?"

A group of people rushed in, their eyes red as they shouted excitedly.

Zhao Qinghai was dumbfounded.

Wang Dahai:

Qin Feng:
