Sun Xinyi appeared very composed, but her heart was anything but calm.
An annual salary of 250,000 yuan!
Thatâs a high salary, whether in Jiangcheng or looked at nationwide.
Donât look at Kuaiyinâs average annual salary of a million; the reality is that an annual salary exceeding 100,000 is considered high.
Previously, Sun Xinyi had been following many job postings online, and for someone like her, the basic annual salary was around 50,000 to 60,000 yuan.
But now, Jiangcheng Newspaper Group had offered a salary that was five times that.
Yesterday, when Yang Hao suggested she become a secretary, Sun Xinyi thought it would be a salary of five or six thousand, as she had no experience.
Now Wang Zhen was telling her that her annual salary was 250,000 yuan, and that was a conservative estimate.
This was far beyond expectations!
However, thinking about Yangâs generous spending, it seemed understandable.
After Wang Zhen finished discussing the salary, He Shuangshuangâs contract was also sent over.
Sun Xinyi read it carefully, found no difference from what Wang Zhen had described, and signed it directly.
âSecretary Sun, do you have an electronic version of your resume? Send me a copy for our personnel department to file.â
After signing the contract, Wang Zhen immediately changed the way he addressed her.
But suddenly hearing herself referred to as âSecretary Sun,â Sun Xinyi was still not quite accustomed to it.
She was slightly startled, then nodded, âYes, I do.â
âGood, letâs add each other on Weixun, and you can send me your resume. Itâll also make it easier to communicate for work later onâ¦â
Wang Zhen wasnât scheming to get Sun Xinyiâs Weixun; indeed, there would be work-related contacts in the future.
Even though the woman in front of him was very beautiful, she was a person specially appointed by CEO Yang, and he didnât dare to entertain any other thoughts.
Above the word âlustâ hangs a sword!@@novelbin@@
Chang Ruihua from âJiangcheng Evening Newsâ was an example of that yesterday.
Thinking of Chang Ruihua, Wang Zhen was curious to see if the guy would report to headquarters today.
The two added each other on Weixun, and Sun Xinyi sent her resume to Wang Zhen.
âSecretary Sun, you can just report directly to the CEOâs office,â Wang Zhen said.
âUm, the CEOâs office is on the eighth floor.â
Wang Zhen stood up enthusiastically to see Secretary Sun off.
In fact, Sun Xinyi knew that the CEOâs office was on the eighth floor; her best friend Xu Yali had already told her.
âManager Wang, please take good care of me in the future.â
As a newcomer in the professional world, Sun Xinyi politely bid farewell to Wang Zhen.
âItâs Secretary Sun who should take good care of meâ¦â
Wang Zhen smiled obligingly, but inside, he was thinking: How could I possibly take care of you! Iâd better minimize contact in the future, to avoid any misunderstandings by CEO Yang about my intentions.
After seeing this connected individual off into the elevator, Wang Zhen casually opened Sun Xinyiâs resume and then saw that this connected individual had actually graduated from the âJiangcheng Sports Institute.â
Hmm, Mr. Yang truly has an âunconventionalâ way of choosing people!
With a wry smile, Wang Zhen forwarded Sun Xinyiâs resume to He Shuangshuang for filing.
He Shuangshuang, who had been watching the spectacle with curiosity, also looked at Sun Xinyiâs resume and was shocked beyond belief.
There was an interview at the CEOâs office today!
The requirement was to have graduated from a 985 top university!
Yet here was Miss Sun, a graduate from a sports institute, who got the job without an interview.
He Shuangshuang was silently contemplating when the sound of high heels clicking on marble reached her ears. She instinctively looked up, then was taken aback.
Well, another beauty with legs longer than life had arrived!
She was about the same height as the recently departed Miss Sun, wearing nude-colored stockings, with her long hair tied up at the back of her head, which made her look very youthful.
Wrong, she was genuinely quite young looking, probably just a little over twenty.
âHello, my name is Wang Bingru, Iâm here to report.â
While He Shuangshuang was lost in her thoughts, the beautiful woman had already approached her desk.
Learning from her recent experience, He Shuangshuang smartly got up and asked, âFrom the CEOâs office?â
âUm, Mr. Yang asked me to come here.â
Wang Bingru, who was not in the least intimidated due to her experience in the student council during university, confidently answered.
âOkay, please follow me.â
He Shuangshuang led Miss Wang to the reception room and then went to inform Wang Zhen.
Upon hearing that the second person had arrived, Wang Zhen quickly went to receive her.
After seeing Wang Bingru, he couldnât help but silently lament in his heart:
Damn, rich people really know how to play!!
Youâre supposed to set up the CEOâs office, but youâve started a harem instead, havenât you!
No wonder yesterday you only had that one requirement of âcompetence.â
Our Jiangcheng Newspaper Group may well have to change its name to âJiangcheng News Industryâ soon!!
If things continue this way, itâs only a matter of time before it ends up in official handsâ¦
Forget it, Iâm just a worker after all!
None of my business what fancy games the boss plays.
After internally mocking the situation for a while, Wang Zhen repeated the same words to Wang Bingru that heâd said to Sun Xinyi.
And when she heard about the salary and benefits, Wang Bingru was utterly stunned.
An annual salary of 250,000 yuan!!
Even if she completed her masterâs degree, she might not be able to get such a high salary.
And her former roommates who went straight to work without pursuing further studies, the highest monthly salary was 4,800 yuan!
And here she was, merely hoping for an internship, and she had easily secured an annual salary of 250,000 yuan!
So, is pursuing a masterâs degree really useful??
Wang Bingru began to question her own choices.
Eighth floor, CEOâs office.
Sun Xinyi and Xu Yali, the pair of close friends, had successfully met up.
âEverything went smoothly?â
Xu Yali asked with a chuckle.
âYeah, the salary was beyond my expectations,â Sun Xinyi admitted honestly.
âWhat level were you assigned to?â Xu Yali asked curiously.
âT4.â
âWhat?â
âThatâs the same level as me.â
Surprised as she was, Xu Yali felt a bit sullen, considering she had work experience at a large state-owned enterprise in Capital City and a higher education background than her bestie.
After all that, they ended up with the same salary.
While they were casually chatting, Yang Hao arrived, clad in a brand-new Hermès suit and sporting a Rolex on his wrist worth over six hundred thousand.
âMr. Yang, good morning!â
Xu Yali quickly stood up from her desk to greet him.
âMr. Yangâ¦â
Sun Xinyi wasnât used to addressing him this way, but she still called out.
She had to get accustomed to it eventually.
Additionally, todayâs Yang Hao looked much more spirited, radiating a strong CEO vibe.
Yang Hao greeted the two of them, then his gaze fell on Sun Xinyi. She used to wear yoga pants or sportswear at the fitness center, showcasing her flawless figure.
But now, her combination of a white shirt, hip-hugging skirt, and black tights was even more alluring than her gym attire!
Her current look nearly fulfilled every lspâs fantasy of a secretary.
Yang Hao suddenly felt there was some truth to the saying, âThe secretary handles the business; if thereâs no business, handle the secretary.â
What boss could withstand such a temptation!
Itâs too difficult!
Seeing Yang Hao staring at her, Sun Xinyi felt shy and subconsciously lowered her head.
âLili, Xinyi, come to my office,â Yang Hao called, shifting his gaze and beckoning them.
So, the pair of besties followed Yang Hao into his office.
After taking a seat, Yang Hao began, âLetâs talk about the division of work youâll be doing from now on. Lili, you were a secondary assistant before, right?â
âYep, yep.â
Xu Yali nodded repeatedly.
âIt seems Mr. Fang wasnât quite the discerning talent-scout,â Yang Hao teased. âYour position is adjusted to Chief Secretary of the CEOâs Office; youâre promoted one level. Go to the HR department later to sign a new contract.â
âWhat?â
âOkay, thank you, Mr. Yang!!â
Surprised and delighted by her sudden promotion, Xu Yali was set to become the Chief Secretary, colloquially known as âBig Secretaryâ or âTop Secretary.â
This position was typically reserved for the CEOâs most trusted aide.
Of course, the promotion in job title was just one benefit; in a big company like Jiangcheng Newspaper Group, moving up one level meant a significant difference in compensation.
Xu Yali, who was feeling slightly unbalanced just moments ago, now felt utterly content.
Yet she hadnât realized that CEO Yang had promoted her primarily because she was indeed an efficient secretary!
In a team, slackers must never make up more than half; otherwise, no work gets done!
For instance, the current secretarial team consisted only of Xu Yali and Sun Xinyi.
Obviously, our long-legged, black-stockinged Yibao couldnât be overburdenedâ¦
So, the Big Secretary had to step up!
âXinyi, you are the secondary secretary. Just ask Lili about the specifics, and she will teach you anything you donât understand,â said Yang Hao to Sun Xinyi.
âUnderstood, Mr. Yang.â
Sun Xinyi nodded. Yang had already told her yesterday that her bestie would show her the ropes, which was far better than being trained by a stranger.
âXinyi, you go ahead and familiarize yourself with the work environment. I have some matters to discuss with Lili!â
After instructing her, Yang Hao basically sent Sun Xinyi off to slack off.
Yep, the boss really values me, Xu Yali thought to herself.
When Sun Xinyi had left, Yang Haoâs expression turned serious as he stated, âLili, you are aware of how important this position is, right?â
âYes, Mr. Yang, I understand,â Xu Yali quickly sat up straight, sensing Yang Haoâs sudden solemnity.
âYou know about the confidentiality clauses for the Big Secretary?â Yang Hao pressed.
âI do!â
Xu Yali nodded vigorously. âDonât worry, Mr. Yang, I know what should be said and what shouldnât be!â
âGood, thatâs what I wanted to hear.â
Once his warning was delivered, Yang Haoâs demeanor softened and he began delegating tasks. âThere will be another assistant joining us to take over your previous role. We havenât decided on the Office Director of the CEOâs Office yet, so youâll have to supervise the assistant for now. Also, get a grip on the CEOâs Office work!â
âYes, I will do my best, Mr. Yang!â
Xu Yali didnât see anything amissâgreater ability comes with greater responsibility, after all!
A workerâs lot is to labor!
âThereâs another thing, purchase a dance training center for me. I need results within this week!â Yang Hao ordered.
He wanted to give Meng Chachaâs task a go, curious to try the Kidney-Strengthening Potion from the System.
Since NPC tasks refreshed every week, he had to complete this one within the week, or who knew what next weekâs task would be.
âBuy a dance training center?â
Xu Yali was bewildered, unable to grasp why a newspaper group would want to purchase a dance training center.
The two seemed completely unrelated.
However, she immediately remembered the workerâs adage:
Tasks assigned by leadership are to be executed if understood, and if not, one must strive to understand in the process of execution!
Focusing on obedience is key!
So, without any further questions, Xu Yali earnestly nodded, âRest assured, Mr. Yang, the task will be completed!â
