601 Expand to the Ocean! (2/2)
[You have a conscience after all.]
After a short silence, Xia Shiyu placed the documents she had been holding on to on Jiang Chen's table.
”I have a few resumes on the table. These talents have impeccable education and ability and there are people from Harvard, Imperial College. They are extremely interested in working for you. You can see which one you like, and I can arrange the interview for you.”
”Okay, thank you very much.” Jiang Chen picked up the documents and start flipping through them.
It felt the servant was picking out the concubine for the emperor.
Jiang Chen shook his head, dispersed the inappropriate ideas from his mind, and started to examine each resume carefully.
<Wang Xiao, male, 37, Tsinghua University Human Resources Masters, worked as a human resources manager at Huawei before…]
Just like Xia Shiyu said, these talents were impeccable in both academics and abilities. But after reading through them, he realized something was off.
It took him a while before he realized what was wrong.
The resumes were all males?
The idea that the person pouring him coffee and tending to him would be a guy made Jiang Chen feel unpleasant. Ability was one thing, but at least give him some passion to work.
Although he understood Xia Shiyu's intention behind this, he was still hurt by this.
[Where did the trust go? Am I that kind of person? Even if it is a female assistant, even if she looked pleasing to the eyes, I wouldn't do anything okay…]
Perhaps.
Jiang Chen realized himself that his ability to reject temptation has been poor. And Xia Shiyu who realized his point did nothing wrong to cut off the ”temptation”. Since she is the CEO of the group, it was reasonable for her to moderately control the desire of the president for the sake of the Group's expansion…
Jiang Chen stuffed the resumes in his drawer, called the human resources department, and asked them to send a few more resumes.
He could not accept a man wandering around in his office all day.
…
Assistant selection aside, compared to the irrelevant small stories, Jiang Chen had other urgent matters to take care of.
Just like what he told Xia Shiyu, he planned to build a city.
Not on the ground, but the ocean!
Followed by the economic development of Xin, a large number of foreign workers and tourists flooded Xin, the not large Pannu Islands instantly became crowded. The previously spacious residential land started to experience shortages. Although it wasn't to the point where the original residents could no longer afford housing, it inevitably increased their cost of living and the requirement to immigrate.
Even if Xin possessed the economic conditions for population increase, on the islands not-so-big in the first place, how many people could you stuff on there?
Xin had a massive territory; not on land, but on the sea.
Next to the vast west Pacific Ocean, there was no territorial dispute for Xin.
With such a god given geographical advantage, it would be a waste of heaven sent if not utilized.
Future Group and Celestial Trade's next strategic focus was to expand to the ocean!
It was the prequel to the space era.
