The Assistant Group's Vision

"Jaeger-LeCoultre?" Song Wenqin was a little confused.

When Zhang Yang saw his mother like this, he sighed inwardly.

The road to popularizing science is long and arduous.

But it's alright, everything takes time. Let alone his parents, among all the nouveau riche in the world, who among them has suddenly become wealthy overnight?

Let time tell.

"I know Jaeger-LeCoultre- LeCoultre, it's way better than Omega. Come on, let me tell you." Zhang Zhaohai eagerly pulled Song Wenqin along to give her a lesson.

Zhang Yang saw his parents huddled together whispering, and then Song Wenqin's eyes getting brighter and brighter, and smiled slightly.

Just wait.

Once her parents' restaurant is on track, once the villa is renovated and they move in, once Song Wenqin drives BMW 7 Series, becomes a genuine wealthy boss lady, and meets new girlfriends in her social circle.

By then, you'll naturally know everything about handbags and luxury goods without needing a teacher.

That night, Zhang Yang lay on his long-unused bed, his hands behind his head, not feeling sleepy for a while.

My phone was lying to the side, but I kept getting text messages from time to time.

Just now, a new friend added me, and the verification message said she was Uncle Wang's daughter.

Which other uncle is there?

It's Uncle Wang, the one who runs the hotel, Zhang Zhaohai's cheap apprentice brother.

Knowing he has a girlfriend, she still added him as a friend, ostensibly to make friends, so he had no choice but to accept.

Since his transformation, he has finally witnessed that girls can be so proactive.

He hadn't originally intended to be aloof. But there were so many girls, all of them like little lapdogs, so can you blame him for being aloof now? To put it bluntly, it's all because he's been spoiled.

Ding-dong

Ding-dong.

The messages keep coming in.

Zhang Yang picked it up and glanced at it.

What do you usually like to do?

[By the way, you're so successful, you must be busy with your career, right? What does your company do?]

There were too many questions, Zhang Yang didn't want to reply right away, so he casually browsed the other person's WeChat Moments.

Well, the life of a rich kid is nothing more than traveling and shopping. As for studying abroad, most of them probably get master's degrees from less prestigious universities.

In terms of skill level, he's way behind his new little fangirl, Xiang Xiaotian.

Xiang Xiaotian's home is a genuine five-star hotel in Hangzhou, with construction costs often reaching hundreds of millions or even billions of yuan.

As for the hotel opened by this Uncle Wang, to put it bluntly, it's just a local banquet hotel, and the construction cost was only tens of millions.

They're worlds apart.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yang replied politely, saying something like that his company was in the investment business.

Purely, it's like making a friend.

[Are you hiring? Haha, how about I work for you? I'm actually looking for a job. Oh, and how about I be your assistant or something?]

Zhang Yang blinked, realizing that the other person had one redeeming quality.

He's shameless and knows how to climb mountains.

He'd just agree to be his assistant? His assistant needs to be exceptionally beautiful, highly educated, and have high emotional intelligence. He can't just find anyone.

If you really attract it, it's easy to invite a god, but difficult to send him away.

He had no choice but to politely decline.

Okay, then please save a spot for me when you have time, I'd love to go.

It's getting late, so I won't disturb your rest any longer. Let's hang out sometime sometime!

Upon receiving these two messages, Zhang Yang breathed a slight sigh of relief, finally managing to deal with the situation.

Deleting such friends is difficult, so you can only gradually distance yourself until the other person realizes the situation and you stop bothering each other.

Before going to sleep, Zhang Yang checked the system.

The current upgrade progress is 110 experience points. There are 40 more experience points needed to upgrade to the next level. In other words, once this task is completed, you will be able to upgrade to the next level smoothly.

The next level, earning 200,000 a day, is just one step away.

In addition, he will receive a random property and an upgrade package.

Heaven knows what other big prizes await him in the upgrade gift pack.

"I'm becoming more and more like a real tycoon." Zhang Yang shook his head and smiled, feeling that he was making better and better progress on the road to becoming a super tycoon.

In the stillness of the night, Zhang Yang's thoughts wandered, and he fell into a deep sleep without realizing when it was time.

The next morning, when Zhang Yang got up, his mother had already gotten up and prepared breakfast.

"Have a good breakfast, let's head back to Magic City early. Your dad and I are going to the restaurant later," Song Wenqin said with a smile. "Your dad, is he trying to show off?"

Zhang Yang drank his Xiaomi and pumpkin porridge and instantly understood.

On the other side of the restaurant, there were many shops. Since everyone saw each other every day, there was an implicit competition among them about which shop was doing well and which was doing well.

That's great.

When Zhang Zhaohai and his wife arrived, the Maybach S680 immediately disrupted the balance; there was no need to even compare.

"Honestly, I didn't mean to show off." Zhang Zhaohai yawned as he walked out of the bathroom. "It would be a waste not to drive a car. Besides, I'm a boss now, and a nice car reflects on my image. It just so happens that I was planning to visit my classmate's family this morning; they run a frozen food business."

"Xie Qingzhu's family, right? The one who was the prettiest girl in your class back then?" Song Wenqin asked with a meaningful smile.

Zhang Zhaohai was taken aback, then smiled ingratiatingly, "Their frozen products are excellent, and they're also an old classmate. Partnering with them ensures fair prices. Don't worry, don't you know your husband's character?"

"I don't think I said anything, did I?" Song Wenqin said.

After finishing breakfast, Zhang Yang hurried out the door, ignoring his parents' murmurs behind him.

As a son, how could he not know his father's character? His parents were just joking with each other.

In the morning, Zhang Yang drove his Cullinan back to Magic City.

We arrived at our destination around noon.

As a rare and dedicated boss, the first thing Zhang Yang did upon returning was naturally to visit the company.

He casually bought two loaves of bread at the convenience store downstairs in the office building and bumped into the two receptionists from his company who were coming down for lunch.

"Chairman Zhang!"

"Mr. Zhang, would you like some bread?"

Seeing the two little girls' shocked expressions, Zhang Yang found it a bit funny. How did this make him seem like someone detached from worldly affairs, or someone who ate delicacies every day?

"Okay, just buy a little something. Oh, and let's pay together." Zhang Yang casually paid for the two girls' bill, smiled amiably, and sat down in the restaurant's dining area to eat his lunch.

"Chairman Zhang, this is delicious, here, have one."

"And this drink, it's new, and it tastes amazing."

Two pretty receptionists put their things down next to Zhang Yang, eager to sit down, but ultimately didn't have the courage.

A moment later, she blushed and ran away.

"Are you a senior executive in the company?" A girl who was having lunch with Zhang Yang looked at him curiously.

"Executive? I'm a boss, no doubt about it." Zhang Yang smiled.

"Boss? By the way, what does your company do? Are you hiring?" the girl blinked and continued to ask.

Zhang Yang put down the bread and then took a good look at the girl who was talking next to him.

She was dressed professionally, had an oval face, and a sweet, energetic smile that radiated youthful vitality. Beside her lay her resume, suggesting she was preparing for an interview.

She looks like a girl who just graduated from school.

"What's your major?" Zhang Yang asked casually, reaching out to ask for his resume.

"Huh? So formal, it's starting already?" The girl was taken aback, but still obediently took out her resume and handed it to Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang opened it and took a look.

Bai Jingyi's major is... Public Administration?

His educational background is average; he's a recent graduate from an ordinary undergraduate university and doesn't have much work experience.

Such recent graduates are everywhere in this vast Magic City.

As he looked around, he glanced up at the girl in front of him, wondering whether he should give her a chance to gain experience.

"Uh, is there a problem?" Seemingly noticing Zhang Yang's gaze, Bai Jingyi looked somewhat uneasy and nervous.

"We do need an assistant, but you..." Zhang Yang shook his head slightly.

He doesn't care about having multiple positions, but it's unnecessary.

After all, the assistant he originally planned to find had very high requirements. A high level of education was just the most basic requirement; to put it bluntly, she had to be both talented and good-looking.

Of course, since he dared to set such high demands, the compensation was naturally quite generous as well.

Seeing Zhang Yang shake his head, Bai Jingyi looked somewhat disappointed. However, she still held onto hope and whispered, "Um... I just want an opportunity. I don't ask for a high salary."

As she spoke, she quickly waved her hand to show her sincerity.

"Not asking for a high salary? Here, there's no salary during the probation period," Zhang Yang said, half-jokingly.

"Huh?" Bai Jingyi was clearly startled. "No pay during probation? Is it... is it really that bad? I..."

It was obvious she was a little worried.

Zhang Yang smiled and returned the resume. It was good that way; if the girl still insisted on giving it a try after he had already said so much, he would really feel bad not giving her the opportunity.

He took a tissue, wiped his mouth, and got up to leave.

"Wait." Suddenly, someone called out to him from behind.

Zhang Yang turned around and saw Bai Jingyi standing up with a conflicted expression.

"I still want to give it a try."

"You're going to try this?" Zhang Yang couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. "Alright, then follow along."

Bai Jingyi quickly followed Zhang Yang closely, occasionally striking up a conversation, "Well, I had excellent grades in college, and I'm quite capable. Actually, I just wanted to find an opportunity to improve myself."

"Something feels off. Your education is decent enough, so surely you can't find a job? Would you work for me even if I didn't pay you?" Zhang Yang said with amusement.

"There are basically no companies that would hire me as an assistant without considering my experience or education. Even if there were, they would be..." Bai Jingyi said, then hesitated, a little embarrassed to continue.

Zhang Yang couldn't help but turn around and take another look at the girl in front of him.

Without experience or a respectable degree, what else could someone possibly want? Just someone who's pleasing to the eye, right?

With looks and figure like that, having her as an assistant, even just as a pretty face, would be presentable.

"Then guess what I'm after?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile.

"You're different. They say your appearance reflects your heart. You're so handsome, and your eyes are so clear. You can't be a bad person. Besides, if you really wanted something from me, you wouldn't be withholding a single penny of my salary," Bai Jingyi said earnestly.

"You're just being kind by giving me this opportunity."

That's quite a good example of imagination.

Zhang Yang's face turned red, and he felt a little ashamed.

He meant well, but it depends on the person. If this girl were really plain-looking, he wouldn't have had a chance.

Bai Jingyi should thank her parents for making her so beautiful. Otherwise, she wouldn't even have the chance to be a pretty face.

"To be honest with you, you're really far from meeting my requirements for an assistant. You're not a graduate of a prestigious university, and you don't have the work experience I need. So, I'm telling you upfront, if you can't satisfy me, I can only apologize," Zhang Yang said.

"Huh? Your standards for an assistant are that high?" Bai Jingyi couldn't help but widen her eyes, then she realized what she meant, "Um... don't worry, I'll definitely do my best."

"High standards naturally mean I can afford the compensation," Zhang Yang smiled. "My assistant's compensation has a very high minimum and a very high maximum."

A moment later, Cloud Sea Capital.

Bai Jingyi looked at the entire floor of the company with the curiosity of a curious child, feeling the overwhelming sense of grandeur and sophistication.

Immediately, I felt a great sense of relief.

"Come to my office." Zhang Yang glanced at Bai Jingyi and gestured.

Bai Jingyi nodded obediently and followed beside her.

Inside the chairman's office, Zhang Yang sat in his executive chair and notified the HR department to come over.

Although he planned to wait until a CEO was hired, and then have the CEO find candidates for the other positions required by the system.

However, an operating fund of 100 million is a huge amount. Some of these positions are not within the system's requirements, but Zhang Yang felt that there were indeed positions that needed them, so he still arranged for the HR department to make recruitment arrangements.

For example, a professional driver.

There will be many more opportunities for the company to use vehicles in the future; I can't possibly drive myself, can I?

Therefore, hiring a full-time driver is still necessary.

"Um... is there anything I need to do?" Bai Jingyi stood to the side, somewhat at a loss.

"You know how to serve tea and water, right?" Zhang Yang chuckled. "You're supposed to be an assistant, do I need to teach you these things? You really think I don't pay you a salary?"

Not paying wages during the probationary period? What kind of exploitation is this?

"Huh? There's a salary?" Bai Jingyi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, then realized what she meant and hurriedly went to make tea, a little flustered.

A moment later, Zhang Yang listened to the HR team's work report while drinking tea.

"Oh, by the way, take her to complete her onboarding process."

At the end, Zhang Yang pointed at Bai Jingyi and gave her instructions.

"Yes, Chairman Zhang." The HR representative nodded quickly.

"Bai Jingyi, you go with me. Come back to me when you're done." Zhang Yang looked at Bai Jingyi.

A trial period is still a trial period, and there's a possibility that the product might not pass the trial period.

Besides, even if it passes, who says he can only have one assistant? He can hire as many as he wants, as long as he wants.

Whether you're good at pleasing the eye, responsible for the work, a mere pretty face, or someone with substance and ability, you can recruit them all. That's what we call recruiting talent without being bound by convention—no, using talent without being bound by convention.
