Chapter 904 The Terrifying Interview Group

Jiang Wenlei wants to resign.

This idea does not appear in a day or two, but it has been particularly strong recently.

It's just that I haven't been able to make up my mind.

During the break, he looked at the time on his phone.

17:58.

Normally, it is time to get off work in 2 minutes, but in fact, I have to continue working overtime.

Companies in the optoelectronics field, just like IT companies, basically cannot escape working overtime, let alone entrepreneurial companies like them that have been established for less than ten years.

Working overtime is a very common thing. If you don't work overtime on any day, it will be surprising.

For example... today.

In the DingTalk group, company boss Zheng Hailiang suddenly posted a message to the group x-on:.

Zheng Hailiang: "I have something to inform you: the company will move to Ludao Changfeng Science and Technology Park in Hu Province within one month. The salary and benefits will remain unchanged. Those who are willing to go to Ludao will be given a relocation subsidy of 10,000 yuan and provide free apartments with fine decoration. , provide n+1 compensation for those who are unwilling to go to Ludao, the deadline is this Sunday\b"

"Besides, the entire company will not work overtime today. Everyone should go back and think about it carefully."

When Jiang Wenlei couldn't believe it, the company suddenly became noisy, and many people were shocked by the sudden news.

"Isn't it? Why did they move so smoothly? Where is the magic city on Ludao? It's in a good location!"

"I'm convinced. I just paid the down payment in Shanghai two months ago. What should I do if this company moves?"

"My wife and children are all in Shanghai, and it's outrageous that they suddenly come to move!"

It’s good that the company is a start-up, but after several years of development, it has dozens of employees. Although most of them are R&D personnel, many of the earliest veterans who joined the company have already started their families and businesses in Shanghai. The relocation is a headache for them. .

Fortunately, Jiang Wenlei didn't have this worry. He was single and couldn't afford a house in Shanghai.

It's just... He originally planned to resign in the near future, but now he hesitated.

The colleague next to him cast an envious look at him and sighed: "Wen Lei, you feel comfortable now. We who have families don't even know what to do."

"Actually, it's not bad." Jiang Wenlei didn't know what to say, so he simply smiled bitterly.

In a situation like this, it's easy to handle if you're single or in a relationship, but it's just troublesome to take care of the family.

"Alas." My colleague sighed several times, shook his head and clocked in to get off work.

Jiang Wenlei also followed suit and prepared to leave work.

The office building where the company is located is not far from the subway station, a few minutes walk, but there are too many migrant workers in the subway station. \b

Jiang Wenlei usually works overtime until getting off work at 9 or 10 o'clock, and rarely gets off work on time. The subway at 6 p.m. is the rush hour for getting off work, so he has to wait for two subway trains before he can get on.

Even so, Jiang Wenlei still couldn't be happy.

The carriage was packed with people, like sardine cans, with their bodies pressed together tightly and smelling of everything. It would be even worse in summer.

"Bang dong~"

Jiang Wenlei's body swayed with the subway. At this moment, he remembered the message sent by the company boss and fell into deep thought.

In a daze, I didn't know when I walked out of the subway station.

Until he was awakened by the bright night scene in front of him, he suddenly stopped walking, his eyes were complicated and confused.

He thought of a passage in "Waiting for the Wind to Come":

"The Magic City is very bright, and there is light everywhere. I feel that as long as I stand in the light, I can bluff and grit my teeth. I live a very strong life. I feel that I have been here for so many years and I have suffered so much. I suffered so much, I felt so angry, and I felt like I was not afraid of anything, but I was still afraid, I was extremely afraid.”

He was born in a small county town in the 18th tier of mainland China. He had good academic performance and was admitted to Jiangcheng University of Science and Technology. He could have been admitted to graduate school to continue his studies, but considering his family's financial situation, Jiang Wenlei gave up and came to Shanghai to work hard.

Although the working environment of the optical engineering major is much better than that of machinery and civil engineering, the salary and benefits are much worse than those of computers. \bEven in Shanghai, the salary in the first two years after arriving was about 7,000 or 8,000 yuan a month. After deducting five insurances and one housing fund, I got more than 6,000 yuan.

In order to save money, he found a shared house on the outskirts of Magic City, but the commute time also became very long, taking 3 hours to go back and forth.

In places like Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, it is actually very common for a single commute to take more than an hour.

After working for several years, Jiang Wenlei's salary has been raised several levels, and the company's products have also become famous in the market. The annual salary of more than 200,000 yuan is already very satisfying for Jiang Wenlei, a young man from a small county.

But, he still couldn't see hope.

Students who have worked hard in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen should have the same feeling.

Here, there are dreams, opportunities, high-paying jobs, and a level playing field. As long as you don’t buy a house or have children, it’s still very comfortable to work and live a good life.

However, once you buy a house and give birth to a child, it's like having side leakage and you won't feel comfortable no matter how you change your position.

Jiang Wenlei is even worse. He can't afford a house now and has no partner.

Although the salary has increased, it will take at least ten years to save for the down payment based on salary alone. The lifetime savings of his parents are only his two years of income. Without the support of his parents, a house in Magic City is like a grandchild under Wuzhi Mountain. Monkey, overwhelmed.

As for the date, it was quite troublesome. It wasn't that no one introduced him to someone, but it was because he worked overtime too frequently and often nothing happened. Occasionally, when two or three people chatted until they could make an appointment, the plan was disrupted by working overtime again.

He didn't want to stay in the magic city anymore.

The pace here is too fast, so fast that he loses his life and becomes a robot who only knows how to work and make money.

I chose to come to Shanghai because on the one hand it is suitable for working hard, and on the other hand it is close to the sea. Children from the mainland are always yearning for the sea.

"It seems that you haven't been to the beach even once in the few years you have been in Shanghai?" Jiang Wenlei touched his nose and laughed at himself.

"Or, going to Ludao is also a good choice?"

Jiang Wenlei murmured, seeming to be asking himself.

He likes the city of Ludao very much, and the housing prices are much lower than those in Magic City. He checked the location of Changfeng Science and Technology Park. In the Jimei District of Ludao, the housing prices are about more than 30,000 yuan.

More than 30,000 is not low, but compared to the Magic City, there is always hope.

…

"It's so curly, it's like a battle between gods!"

Yang Heng had just entered the interview group, but when he saw the nicknames of the group members displayed above, he felt like crying.

[Ludao University-Electrical Engineering-xxx]

[Yamancheng University-Master of Electrical Engineering-xx]

[Shuimu University-Electrical Engineering-xxx]

[Kyoto University-Master of Software Engineering-xxx]

There is even a PhD from Sun Yat-sen University and a bachelor's degree in computer science from Stanford University.

You've graduated from Stanford, why are you still here?

As the only one in the group who is not from 985, not from 211, and not from a prestigious foreign school, Yang Heng Alexander.

Xinyou was also very desperate. He didn't think he could get an interview under such circumstances.

It’s so difficult to find a job now, the exams in all walks of life are tough, and there are more and more fresh graduates who want to join the system.

At this time, a new tweet from the school’s official account caught his attention.

“College students start a business??”

ps: Still no news, alas.
