Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids
Chapter 471: All Is Ready Except for the East Wind
No surprise, the phone was hung up on again, and Xu Pengfei even received a classic curse in return.
Well then, Xu Pengfei wasn’t angry because of this.
He even somewhat understood this young boy.
On Sundays, many people have the habit of sleeping in.
A whole week goes by, and it’s finally a chance to rest, only to be disturbed.
Even a clay Buddha has a temper, let alone a hot-headed teenager.
In a tiny rented room of just ten square meters in a lower-tier city, a messy-haired young man cursed a few times before going back to sleep.
He worked a temporary job at a hotel until midnight yesterday, barely got to sleep, and was woken up early. Can you blame him for cursing?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. This year has really been unlucky for him.
Otherwise, as a proud graduate of a 985/211 university, he wouldn’t have ended up in temporary work.
Finding a job in his field in this small fifth-tier city is out of the question.
The young man sighed, "I guess I’ll just hang in there until the New Year."
"After the New Year, I’ll try my luck in a few first-tier cities."
He had already decided that if it came to it, he’d stop looking for a job in his field.
People, until the end, don’t want to face reality.
"Time to sleep, time to sleep, I still have to meet up at six in the evening."
Just as he closed his eyes, the young man opened them again.
It was because that darn phone rang again.
He was about to hang up again, but realized it wasn’t a landline number this time; it was a mobile number.
After a moment of hesitation, the young man chose to answer.
Mainly because he didn’t know if it was a call from an agency.
In tough times, there’s no need to say no to money.
"Hello, is this Song Xiaolei?"
"Yes, who is this?"
"Hahaha, I’m the one who called you twice earlier and got hung up on."
"Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Xu Pengfei, the president of Candy Technology. If you don’t believe me, you can check. The previous calls were indeed from Candy Technology’s official landline."
If the other person hadn’t spoken quickly, Song Xiaolei was ready to start lashing out.
The president of Candy Technology? Why would such a big shot, with power over tens of thousands, call him?
Rationally, Song Xiaolei checked the information.
It was only then that Song Xiaolei was shocked to realize the two calls he had hung up on were really from Candy Technology.
Minutes later, after ending the call, Song Xiaolei still felt like he was in a dream.
Candy Technology was actually setting up an aerospace research center!
And he was invited to be one of the research staff!
With a slap, Song Xiaolei touched his right cheek and grinned foolishly.
It really hurt.
This wasn’t a dream!
Just then, a text message arrived on his phone.
When Song Xiaolei opened it, it was an offer from Candy Technology!
Instantly, all the disillusionment in Song Xiaolei’s eyes vanished.
After thinking for a while, Song Xiaolei immediately sent a message to the agency today, explaining that he couldn’t attend the evening meeting.
In life, you always have to keep a backup plan for yourself.
Without hesitation, Song Xiaolei used his hard-earned savings to buy a high-speed train ticket to Fucheng for today.
In the small rented room, Song Xiaolei quietly packed his luggage.
He didn’t even forget the quilt on the bed.
In the office, Xu Pengfei spent three hours calling everyone on the list.
Putting the phone down, Xu Pengfei let out a sigh of relief.
This recruitment work sure isn’t easy.
He had made all the calls, but he couldn’t predict who would actually show up.
Everyone verbally agreed, but whether they’ll come is another story.
Candy Technology offered a starting annual salary in the millions, but what about other companies?
After a short break, Xu Pengfei called his boss to report.
"Boss, I’ve talked to everyone on the list."
"For those interested in coming to work, I’ve asked Zero to send the offers."
"Good job, thank you for your hard work."
"It’s my duty."
Xu Pengfei stretched and looked out the window.
What he said earlier wasn’t just to please his boss; working wholeheartedly is indeed his obligation.
Right now, he’s tied to Candy Technology’s success.
The better Candy Technology does, the higher his annual income will naturally be.
Similarly, if Candy Technology declines, his annual income will decrease as well.
Downstairs, Xu Pengfei looked at the well-behaved reception staff standing straight.
Xu Pengfei knocked on the reception desk and reminded them:
"On Saturdays and Sundays, don’t be so tense; there’s usually no one coming in."
"But you should still pay some attention. Playing on your phone is fine; even if the boss sees, they won’t say much. But don’t laugh so loudly, it’s quite scary."
Pausing for a moment, Xu Pengfei added with deep meaning:
"If Candy suddenly comes in and you scare her, even a deity can’t save you."
After speaking, Xu Pengfei turned and left.
Leaving the receptionist puzzled in the breeze.
Suddenly, her phone rang.
It was an email, sent by the artificial intelligence Zero.
Instantly, her heart tightened.
The email’s subject was a big "Warning."
The email contained a link.
When she opened it, she was embarrassed.
The link was to a video, showing surveillance footage of her laughing loudly.
She cautiously glanced at the camera above her head.
In the next second, her eyes widened in shock.
The camera moved and focused directly on her.
On Monday, Candy was still yawning when her brother brought her to the company in the early morning.
Zhou Yaling also unexpectedly arrived early at the company today.
Well, it wasn’t by choice.
Having just been let down from her brother’s embrace, Candy was still a bit drowsy; she looked around and headed straight for the bedroom behind the office.
She couldn’t help it; she needed a little more sleep first.
"Meow~"
"Bun, don’t disturb my sleep."
"Good boy~"
As soon as she spoke, Candy already fell asleep.
Mo Jingchun, who didn’t enter the bedroom, naturally didn’t know about this scene.
Mo Jingchun asked Zero to turn on the computer, and less than ten minutes later, Xia Xiaomin walked in.
From Xia Xiaomin’s expression, Mo Jingchun could see surprise.
Clearly, Xia Xiaomin was surprised that he came in so early today.
"Good morning, boss."
Mo Jingchun nodded, "Good morning."
"Did Old Xu talk to you about what I mentioned yesterday?"
"Boss, President Xu told me, and we’ll have a floor of office space cleared by morning."
"Good."
"By the way, how’s the Phase Three project of the Science Park going? The aerospace research center is always not suitable for being in the office area. Just right, the laboratory building B of Phase Three suits them."
Xia Xiaomin pondered for a moment before replying:
"The water and electricity are already laid out, and it’s expected to be ready for use in three months."
"Three months, huh... Make sure Li Wanning keeps a close watch. Our Candy Technology has never delayed payment for completed work; all procedures must be completed on time and in quality."
