"Not bad, not bad. Looks like Eldest Young Master Yang is pretty famous around campus!"
Jiang Chao stifled a laugh as he walked over and patted Yang Qiniang on the shoulder.
The source of human joy is universal.
It comes from schadenfreude.
Seeing the state Yang Qiniang was in, Lin Feng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
’If this keeps up, things are going to get ugly.’
’I’m afraid that before you guys can even help me collect resumes, the university faculty will be calling me in for a talk.’
Lin Feng saw the situation clearly.
"Since everyone is so eager to join our company, we have to give them a proper channel to do so,"
Lin Feng said after a moment’s thought.
In fact, from the moment he had agreed to the school publication feature, Lin Feng had been making preparations for this.
He just hadn’t expected everyone to be so enthusiastic.
"Tomorrow, I’ll go to the university’s career center and have a chat with them."
"It just so happens to be the fall recruitment season, so I’ll see if we can set up a campus-recruitment partnership."
"If these people want to join the company, they should go through the official hiring channels."
Lin Feng calmly laid out his plan.
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s plan, the other three’s eyes lit up.
This way,
by opening up an official channel, they could put an end to the chaos of people submitting resumes haphazardly.
Moreover, it would significantly strengthen the ties between the company and the university.
Yang City University has some exceptional talent.
This was also a way to prepare for the company’s future growth.
Yang Qiniang immediately raised both hands in support. "That’s a great idea! This way, we won’t have to deal with this headache anymore."
Lin Feng had just nodded when he noticed his other two roommates’ eyes gleaming beside him.
"Brother Feng, you’ve gotta be loyal to your bros! Those others are just seniors we barely know."
"But we’re your actual roommates! You can’t forget about us!"
The smiles on Jiang Chao and Cao Ming’s faces were particularly strained.
The two of them had wanted to work at Lin Feng’s company for a while.
But since Lin Feng had never mentioned anything about hiring, they hadn’t found a good opportunity to bring it up.
’Who doesn’t want to make money these days?’
Especially with their connection to Lin Feng, the two were itching for a chance.
So they seized this opportunity to propose it.
Lin Feng had always been very generous to his own.
This was evident from the salaries he paid Chu Ling’er and Song Yaqi for their jobs at the cafeteria.
Jiang Chao had been going to the cafeteria frequently lately.
He could clearly see
that inside the cafeteria, the service windows managed by Song Yaqi and Chu Ling’er were doing exceptionally well.
Since they were all quite close, Jiang Chao had a rough idea of how much the two were earning.
Just last month, their cafeteria operation had brought in 350,000.
Song Yaqi and Chu Ling’er’s salaries had already reached the standard starting salary for a first-year graduate of Yang City University.
And they were only working part-time.
Lin Feng looked at his two roommates’ eager gazes, smiled, and nodded. "You two are my inside connections, how could I possibly forget you!"
Hearing Lin Feng say that, Cao Ming and Jiang Chao knew it was a done deal.
The two of them jumped up and high-fived.
Lin Feng waited for the two to settle down a bit, then spoke again.
"However, you two should also be very clear. Right now, you don’t have any experience, so I can’t just hand projects over to you right from the start."
Lin Feng was being very practical with them.
The reason he could let Yang Qiniang manage a project
was, for one, because Yang Qiniang was a core member of the company. He had put in a lot of effort when the company was first being set up.
For another, while Yang Qiniang didn’t have any relevant experience,
he did have a good family background and a good father.
Although Yang Tianming hadn’t systematically trained him,
the things Yang Qiniang had learned through osmosis just by being around his father were naturally far more than what Cao Ming and Jiang Chao knew.
And Cao Ming and Jiang Chao were reasonable people.
They had no objections on this front.
"Brother Feng, we get it. We’ll do whatever you arrange,"
Cao Ming said, slinging an arm around Lin Feng’s shoulders.
Lin Feng nodded and looked at them. "Even though I’m pulling some strings for you, if you want to gain experience, you’ll still have to start from the bottom."
"I have to say this up front. It’s not that I’m trying to make things difficult for you. It’s just that only the experience you gain from the ground up will allow you to see the big picture when you eventually reach a higher position."
Lin Feng was speaking the truth.
In reality, if it weren’t for their connection to Lin Feng,
it would have been nearly impossible for Cao Ming and Jiang Chao to find an internship at a proper company as freshmen.
For starters, they were fresh out of high school.
They had barely learned any theoretical knowledge.
Furthermore, an internship at this stage would require constant schedule adjustments to accommodate their university courses.
Jiang Chao and Cao Ming knew this as well.
So when Lin Feng relented and agreed, they were truly grateful.
They completely understood why Lin Feng said they had to start from the bottom.
Cao Ming even felt that was how it should be.
And the fact that Lin Feng had laid everything out up front
actually made him seem incredibly sincere.
"Old Lin, we know what you’re saying. We agree to this,"
Jiang Chao said with a smiling nod.
Seeing the sincere look in both their eyes, Lin Feng knew they had fully accepted his terms.
"As for your compensation, I’ll be straight with you."
Lin Feng’s thoughts then turned to their salary.
"Since you’ll be interns, the company will determine your pay based on the actual hours you work."
"If the projects you’re on make progress, you’ll also be eligible for bonuses, just like full-time employees."
Since Lin Feng had decided to do things by the book, he wasn’t going to give his two buddies any special treatment.
Giving them special treatment during their internship would actually be a disservice to their future.
In truth, Jiang Chao and Cao Ming weren’t too concerned about the salary.
They mainly wanted to learn things from Lin Feng’s company that went beyond textbook theory.
None of them were short-sighted.
They all had at least some plans for their futures.
"I have no objections,"
Cao Ming said with a nod.
Lin Feng looked at Jiang Chao.
Jiang Chao nodded quickly. "My family gives me an allowance anyway, so I’m not in a rush for the money."
"The two of us are mainly just looking to gain some experience and see how things work inside a company."
Seeing that both of them were sensible guys, Yang Qiniang also came over with a smile and slung his arms around their shoulders.
"See? We’re all reasonable people. Now we can all go to work together."
Yang Qiniang was in a very good mood now.
The entire dorm room, all together at the company.
It was a great thing for them to be able to learn from each other and grow together.
