I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 3781: Chapter 3772: Nature of the Job

"What age is it now, still treating them as enemies makes me seem very small-minded."

Yan Ci flicked his hair, half raising his head, and said:

"Look at me now, driving a nice car, living in a big house, having whatever I want. Those people from before are long out of my sight."

"Then tell me about the past, why did you resign back then?"

"Of course, it was because of Director Lin." Yan Ci said with a smile:

"Why keep working when I’ve hooked up with such a wealthy person like Director Lin."

"If you had really realized this, you wouldn’t have left 1000 yuan after sleeping with me back then."

"Haha."

Yan Ci couldn’t help but burst into laughter, so loudly that the diners nearby turned to look, which felt a bit embarrassing, and only then did he stop.

"So you were still holding a grudge about that."

"It was the first time I’ve seen someone give me money."

"Like you said, you have to experience everything once." Yan Ci said with a smile: "If one day you go to a high-end club to experience life, I’ll definitely cheer you on every day."

"Alright, let’s get back to business." Lin Yi said:

"I’m quite interested in your work experience at the TV station."

"Actually, when I resigned, it really had something to do with you." Yan Ci said seriously.

"But at that time, it seemed like you didn’t want any money from me."

"Because you gave me courage." Yan Ci gently supported his cheek with one hand, looking at Lin Yi warmly, saying:

"At that time, it was because of some interpersonal issues, and I did consider resigning, but if I really quit, there wouldn’t be a good next step, plus the business environment was not good, so I was a bit timid. But after meeting you, I stopped worrying about these things, and then I quit my job and went into business."

"Where did the interpersonal issues come from?" Lin Yi asked:

"With your social skills, I feel like you wouldn’t have problems in that area."

"Our director was interested in me, I was too lazy to pay attention to him, and then the relationship deteriorated, I was isolated, and couldn’t do my work. Luckily, you appeared at that time, so I quit."

Habitually tidying his hair, Yan Ci said: "My thought at that time was, if entrepreneurship didn’t work out, I’d just cling to you for support, so anyway, I had some confidence, and I quit."

"I thought, there’d definitely be crap like this."

"That’s normal, it’d definitely be like that after you join." Yan Ci said:

"And also, don’t think that getting married and having kids will save you from it. Nowadays, people are open, especially those who are married, they don’t care about these things at all."

"It doesn’t matter, if I can’t handle even this kind of little crap, wouldn’t that mean I’ve been hanging around for nothing?"

"I believe that, constantly walking by the river, yet hardly getting your shoes wet." Yan Ci said.

Lin Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, "For a moment, I don’t know if you’re praising me or cursing me."

"Of course I’m praising you, with so many women throwing themselves at you every day, managing to keep it under control this well is already pretty good." Yan Ci said:

"But you are going to the self-media department, which has a high degree of independence, and there’s less intrigue and scheming, it’s quite suitable for you."

"Even if there’s intrigue and scheming, it doesn’t matter. I encountered such things before while working in the 4S store, and ended up getting rid of it."

"So, with your ability, working anywhere would be like a dimensionality reduction blow, you could handle it with ease."

"Alright, let’s stop talking about this, let’s continue discussing the business, what’s the usual workflow in the self-media department?"

"How shall I put it, it mainly depends on you."

"What do you mean?"

"You’re interviewing for the role of journalist, which means you’ll be in front of the camera. As long as you appear, there will be traffic, the difference is how much. If there’s little traffic, you’ll be a little invisible, and you’ll need to do all the work, like a brick, moved wherever needed. But if you have traffic and fans, the situation is different; someone will have done everything for you, feed you, and you just have to read the script, without needing to do anything else."

"Is that how it works at the TV station?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"This has nothing to do with the TV station, it’s the current state of the self-media industry. Now it’s flow that rules, everyone and everything must serve for the flow. As long as you have flow, everything is yours."

Yan Ci looked at Lin Yi with a smile, "So when you ask me to talk about job content, it’s hard for me to say because the boundaries are very blurry."

Thinking about it, Yan Ci continued:

"But initially, you probably won’t have too much work, because you still have to familiarize yourself with the business."

"So, it probably won’t be such quick onboarding, I’ll need to learn for a period."

"Not necessarily, that’s the difference between self-media and traditional industries, the learning time is very short. As long as your speech is clear, it’s even possible for you to start working immediately."

"That fast?"

"Because you’re doing accounts, if there is a serious error in the content being broadcast, you can just delete the account and start over again, leaving no trace on the internet." Yan Ci said:

"In traditional industries, journalists are very important, but in the self-media industry it’s the opposite, you’re the most easily abandoned, because while running accounts, matrix production is involved, doing dozens of accounts together, whichever succeeds is used, so aside from capability, luck is also a significant part."

"The pace is faster than I imagined." Lin Yi said with a smile:

"That’s why I think you’ll definitely be fine, firstly because of your outstanding ability, and secondly because the threshold is very low, this is still in a TV station setting. If it were another media company, there might not even be a formal interview. As long as your Mandarin is acceptable and you have decent facial features, you could be hired instantly."

"From what you say, this industry is quite interesting."

"The truly interesting part is in private companies, where you find all sorts of people, but now that you’ve successfully applied, stay here and have a good experience."

Lin Yi nodded, he didn’t plan on switching.

After finishing the business conversation, the two had almost finished their meal.

Yan Ci didn’t let Lin Yi pay, he paid the bill and then took him to the hotel. The two spent the afternoon there, then energetically walked out of the hotel.

Lin Yi went to pick up Little Nuonuo from school, while Yan Ci went to attend her dinner appointment, the itinerary was well arranged.

Life at home followed the routine, being away from the Central Guards Brigade work felt especially relaxing to Lin Yi.

"I almost forgot to ask, did the TV station call you?"

"They did, I officially start tomorrow at nine."

"I told you’d have no problem." Ji Qingyan said with a smile:

"I’ll go find your suit, wear something nice for work tomorrow."

"No need, I’m not an official journalist, simple and clean is enough. When I went for the interview, others were dressed casually, if I wear formal attire to work, it’ll seem awkward."

"Alright, let’s do as you said."
