Chapter 701 - 692: Who Doesn’t Know?
Chapter 701: Chapter 692: Who Doesn’t Know?
As a 5G network surfing expert, he knew this catchphrase well, and it even had a watermelon peel special effect.
It’s mainly used for sarcastic videos, like when encountering some oddities in life, you’d start with this effect and the catchphrase ’Who understands, my family?’.
Originally, it wasn’t a big deal; after all, everyone has their own troubles. But gradually, the online atmosphere changed. Some people with twisted views began using this effect to attack others, even engaging in cyberbullying, which was simply absurd.
Lately, quite a few people have expressed their dislike for watermelon peel videos online.
Of course, as a video blogger with millions of followers, he was long immune to this. As for those who attack others? He only saw it online, never in real life, because the people around him, regardless of gender, were quite normal.
He wondered whether those so-called social justice warriors existed only on the internet or if they also knew that acting like that in reality would only bring criticism. Anyway, his circle remained quite clean.
This was the first time he heard such statements in real life. What the hell, comparing female college graduates to male Ph.D. holders? Also, isn’t it common knowledge to bring a resume to an interview?
The most baffling part is, what’s with this habit of constantly recording videos on a phone?
Su Qing walked in and took a glance. The girl was in her early twenties, seemingly around his age, with a ponytail, dressed very stylishly, but her looks were average.
Even with makeup, she still looked quite ordinary, and her height and figure were also very average.
Yet, this ordinary girl had several people from the HR department gathered around, all looking quite angry, which wasn’t something just anyone could cause.
"What’s going on? What happened?" Looking around, Su Qing saw that no leaders had come over, so he had no choice but to step in.
He noticed one of the older guys inside was already flushed red, seemingly about to explode in anger, making Su Qing almost want to give him some calming pills.
Seeing him approach, a few employees immediately greeted him:
"President Su!"
"Hello, President Su!"
"President Su, please take a look at Dawei!"
Dawei was the man with the red face and thick neck. He was part of the HR staff, and although not part of Shen Yi’s core team from the capital, he was an old employee who had been working in HR in Jiang City for several years before joining and was quite skilled at headhunting.
The company’s rapid hiring success was largely thanks to him, and even some of the HR personnel in the company were brought in by him, demonstrating his strong professional abilities.
"Are you okay? Why are you so angry?" Su Qing smiled and poured him a glass of water.
He remembered Li Dawei because when he joined the company... no, when Dahuang joined, it was Dawei who handled the paperwork.
Nobody expected that in just over half a year, Dawei would rise to become President Su.
"Su... President Su, I’m fine, really!" Li Dawei stood up, took several deep breaths, and slowly calmed down.
"Da Qing? Is it really you? Can I take a photo with you?"
At this moment, the girl walked over to his side in surprise, speaking with delight.
Hearing this, Su Qing frowned, glancing at her. Usually, he never refused people who recognized him and wanted to take a photo because he didn’t consider himself a celebrity. If someone wanted a photo with him, he took it as a compliment. But this situation seemed inappropriate.
In response, Su Qing nodded at her, then turned to Li Dawei and asked, "What happened here?"
"President Su, she came to cause trouble at our company, came for an interview, and when I greeted her, she accused me of flirting. Moreover, she didn’t bring a resume for the interview, was applying for a finance position which has degree and certificate requirements, and she had none. She said I discriminated against her associate degree, and then threatened to expose our company." Li Dawei explained.
Hearing this, Su Qing looked at the girl, and a voiceover in his head instantly provided information.
[Song Chunyan, female, 22 years old, graduated from **** Vocational and Technical College, currently unemployed, has not participated in work, likes reading online motivational literature, has a video account with over 30,000 followers, often wears makeup and uses beauty filters online, considered attractive on the internet, often receives praise from some men, excessively influenced by it.]
[She came for today’s interview because a few days ago her friend was rejected for an interview here and complained to her. In anger, Song Chunyan posted ’watermelon peel culture’ exposing Shen Yi’s company name online, attracting much more traffic than usual. She came today partly to stand up for her friend and partly to shoot another video to gain more followers, but got upset after being rejected.]
Su Qing:...
What a mess is this?
He just got news about the movie ticket sales today and was in a great mood, and now this trivial matter was bringing him down.
Are there really such boring and self-important people?
"Is that so?" Su Qing turned to ask Song Chunyan.
Upon hearing him, Song Chunyan got quite irritated: "He’s lying! Why can’t someone with an associate degree pass the interview? This is discrimination against associate degrees and women!"
"Alright, sorry miss, after careful consideration, we believe you are not suitable for this position. Please look at other companies, sorry!"
With that, Su Qing gestured to escort her out directly.
Why waste words with this kind of person? Why even get angry?
"You... I’m an internet celebrity, I’ll expose your company!" Song Chunyan shouted, feeling enraged, especially since she had already said she was a fan of Su Qing, yet he showed no regard.
Su Qing: "Who isn’t? Maybe I should expose you?"
"I..." Song Chunyan’s eyes widened as she felt angry, hurriedly taking out her phone and saying to it, "Who understands, my family? The big internet celebrity is bullying a newbie, I just..."
But before she could finish, Su Qing suddenly shouted, "What are you looking at? Call security to escort her out!"
What a joke, on his own turf, he can’t let himself be bullied? Li Dawei was so angry because, as employees, they couldn’t act too harshly sometimes. If things escalated, the company would also punish them, but Su Qing had no such problem.
After all, he was President Su, and in case of any trouble, he would handle it. So why be afraid?
"Security, security, someone’s causing trouble!"
Soon, with the help of a few employees and security, the girl was gently escorted out.
"What about Manager Cheng? Didn’t he say how to handle such situations?" Su Qing asked Li Dawei.
Manager Cheng was the head of the HR department, and in this field, he was the professional.
"Manager Cheng had something to do and went out today. Also, President Su, there have been some unfavorable videos about our company circulating online recently, gaining quite a bit of traction. I suspect this girl has something to do with it. Manager Cheng went to find a solution and instructed us to be cautious when dealing with job applicants, and that’s why..." Li Dawei explained apologetically, admitting that it was because of him the situation escalated.
Because there was already an incident a few days ago, and crucially, he conducted that interview too, so this time he was even more cautious.
"It’s okay, call security if someone comes to cause trouble. You don’t need to worry about the online stuff."
Having said that, Su Qing left directly, though in his mind he thought.
I could use the "Who understands, my family?" phrase just as well.
