After Lin Feng and Yang Qiniang settled the matter of the shares with just a few words, they looked up to see Jiang Chao and Cao Ming walking onto the presentation stage.
At that moment,
on the conference room screen,
a promotional video the two had made was playing.
It was primarily meant to introduce the specifics of the investment company.
You could tell that the few hundred students in the audience were watching with keen interest.
"The recruitment session is about to start. We should go in and keep an eye on things."
This time, it wasn’t just the university that was taking this seriously; the HR department at Lin Feng’s company was as well.
After all, the students of Yang City University had a very solid foundation of theoretical knowledge.
They were an excellent pool of potential talent.
Having Jiang Chao and Cao Ming open on such an important occasion
was also a way to temper them.
Cao Ming’s palms were sweaty.
The main reason was that the audience was filled with his own upperclassmen.
He’d never imagined that one day, before he had even graduated, he’d be in the position of a big-shot employer, recruiting his own upperclassmen.
That feeling...
’It’s kind of awesome!’
Still, facing so many pairs of eyes, Cao Ming was very nervous.
Jiang Chao, standing beside him, wasn’t faring much better.
But the two of them reminded themselves that they were representing Lin Feng’s company and couldn’t afford to embarrass it.
So, both of them secretly took deep breaths while pretending to be composed.
Yang Qiniang and Lin Feng were sitting in the front row,
very close to Jiang Chao and Cao Ming.
"Look, their legs are shaking..."
Yang Qiniang whispered with a hidden smile.
Lin Feng smiled as well.
Thanks to the podium, the upperclassmen in the audience who were there to apply couldn’t see the duo’s predicament.
But Lin Feng and Yang Qiniang had a perfect view.
What Lin Feng didn’t know was that because so many people had shown up for the recruitment fair,
some of them hadn’t been able to get in at all and were standing by the back doors of the conference room, listening from there.
In no time at all,
this scene caught the attention of the university president, who had just finished a meeting nearby.
"Why are there so many students over there? Is there a major presentation going on?"
the president of Yang City University asked.
The one next to him was none other than Dean Zhao from Lin Feng’s college.
He was also an old acquaintance of Yang Qiniang’s.
Dean Zhao had heard a little about Lin Feng’s university-enterprise partnership.
He also knew there was a large recruitment fair on this floor today.
So he thought for a moment and said to the president, "It probably isn’t a presentation. It’s a recruitment event for a university-enterprise partnership."
"Oh? What company is drawing such a crowd? And it looks like the students are very interested."
The president’s curiosity was piqued.
Hearing the president’s question, Dean Zhao hesitated for a moment before saying,
"Well... it’s that student who was featured in the university journal a while ago."
Hearing Dean Zhao say this, the president naturally remembered who he was talking about.
After all, the president had read that issue of the journal himself not too long ago.
"Ah, so it’s Lin Feng,"
the president said thoughtfully.
Since his meeting was over anyway, the president, now quite intrigued, walked over to the crowd of students.
The students listening at the doorway saw the president approaching.
Every one of them was rather surprised.
Just then,
Jiang Chao and Cao Ming finished their company introduction.
At the enthusiastic invitation of the students in the audience,
Lin Feng walked up to the podium to begin his speech.
Looking at the upperclassmen below, Lin Feng didn’t hesitate at all.
As far as Lin Feng was concerned, he was here to recruit, so his objective had to be clear.
So, the moment Lin Feng took the stage, he got straight to his hiring requirements.
Simple, clear, and no-nonsense:
"Everyone, I’m sure the details about the company have been mostly covered already."
"I’m just up here to talk about our hiring criteria."
"The requirements aren’t actually that high. We’re looking to hire young people who are driven and bold."
Lin Feng looked out at the upperclassmen below without a trace of stage fright.
He had no idea that at that very moment, the university president was taking in his every move.
"This young man is interesting. If I recall correctly, his company is in investment, isn’t it?"
the president said to Dean Zhao beside him.
Dean Zhao nodded. "It is indeed an investment firm. With that in mind, it makes sense for him to require boldness."
After stating his conditions, Lin Feng gave a slight smile and stepped down from the podium.
The upperclassmen in the audience who were there for interviews looked at each other in confusion.
They understood the "driven" part well enough. After all, every company wants to hire people who will make a difference.
But they weren’t quite sure what to make of the "boldness" Lin Feng had mentioned.
However, a few quick-witted individuals understood what Lin Feng meant.
This was an investment company, after all.
And the more outstanding students at Yang City University were concentrated in finance-related majors.
Since they were here to interview for a position at Lin Feng’s investment company,
they had to be clear about their own role.
Working at an investment firm naturally meant getting involved in its projects.
And most of an investment firm’s projects were tied to, well, investing.
Lin Feng’s requirement for "boldness" gave those upperclassmen who caught on a certain understanding of the company’s culture.
’Lin Feng is probably looking for people who aren’t afraid to take action.’
The subsequent interview process would naturally be handled by the HR managers who had come from the company for this purpose.
As for the president, he had already understood Lin Feng’s intentions the moment he heard his hiring criteria.
It also satisfied his curiosity about the young man.
In the president’s eyes, Lin Feng knew how to command the stage and establish his position.
Even though the audience was full of his upperclassmen, he showed no trace of stage fright.
Furthermore, his requirements for talent were exceptionally clear.
The president of Yang City University had seen so many outstanding graduates,
yet he was uniquely intrigued by Lin Feng.
That in itself said a lot.
When the president and Dean Zhao quietly slipped away, the upperclassmen standing at the back doors breathed a collective sigh of relief.
’I can’t believe we ran into two big shots at a recruitment fair.’
"That was the president and the dean..." a male student sighed in relief.
"I really didn’t expect the president and the dean to come and listen to a recruitment fair!"
another student chimed in.
The eyes of the other upperclassmen who heard this burned even brighter.
The president and dean’s actions had unintentionally made these students even more eager to join Lin Feng’s investment company.
By the time the HR staff took the stage,
Lin Feng had already quietly left the scene.
The rest of the event would naturally be managed by the HR team.
Besides, Lin Feng wasn’t needed for the initial stages of recruitment.
Only those who passed through all the trials and made it to the final round would earn an interview with Lin Feng himself.
If it weren’t for this being his alma mater, Lin Feng wouldn’t even have needed to come to this recruitment fair.
Lin Feng’s departure was naturally noticed by others.
But he was the boss, so no one had any objections.
Since there was nothing left for him to do, Lin Feng decided to head back to the apartment to see Su Ruoxi.
When he got back, he found the apartment had been completely transformed.
Su Ruoxi had added quite a few new furnishings to the apartment.
Instantly, the place was filled with a lived-in, cozy atmosphere.
Lin Feng found Su Ruoxi in the projection room on the third floor.
