Chapter 16 May 16th, Monday

The new Tenda recruitment season had begun.

This was the second Tenda unified recruitment exam. The Human Resources Department, which was in charge of the recruitment, was already experienced and everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

Currently, they were still in the written test phase. After that, there would be a series of steps such as interviews, onboarding, and Tenda spirit tests.

Wu Bin wore a staff badge and watched the new batch of job seekers outside the venue, feeling a wave of emotions.

Time flies so fast!

Wu Bin recalled that his fate with Tenda could be traced back to November of last year. At that time, he wanted to poach Hao Qiong from Shang Yang Games, but after a series of operations, he ended up with a lemon himself.

As a result, Wu Bin decisively signed up for Tenda's entry exam, successfully passed all three levels, and became a formal employee of Tenda.

After that, he also carried out a series of fruitful works. What he was most satisfied with was summarizing the Tenda spirit and using it to guide the authors of the Qidian Chinese Website training class.

Applying what you've learned—that's probably the best way to describe it, right?

Looking back, in just half a year, his life had undergone earth-shattering changes. Wu Bin couldn't help but feel a myriad of emotions.

This Tenda recruitment exam clearly had many more people than the last one.

This was enough to show that in half a year, Tenda's popularity and size had greatly increased.

On the one hand, there were more industries and positions, and on the other hand, the number of people applying for each position had also increased.

A couple was cheering each other on outside the entrance of the venue, seemingly to take the Tenda recruitment exam together.

"Honey, good luck, I'm sure you'll be fine!"

"Yeah, you too. You've been studying for so long, you'll definitely pass!"

"After we get into Tenda, let's rent a bigger place right away."

"Yeah, after we pass, we won't have to work overtime anymore. I'll cook you delicious food every day when we get home!"

"We'll definitely get in together! Good luck!"

The two encouraged each other before going to different exam venues.

Such scenes were constantly playing out. Although most people came alone, there were also many people who brought their families, giving off a sense of joining the army.

The bustling crowd outside the venue reminded Wu Bin of the anxious parents waiting outside the school during the college entrance examination.

But thinking about it, it made sense. For many people here, the Tenda recruitment exam was probably not much different from the college entrance examination.

A carp leaping over the dragon gate, ascending to the heavens in one step.

Wu Bin couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.

For many people, especially those in Jingzhou, becoming a Tenda employee was a source of pride.

Because of Tenda's rapid development in Jingzhou, its tentacles gradually penetrated into various industries, which the locals could deeply feel.

The rumors about Tenda had become increasingly outrageous.

Some said that Tenda's salary was extremely high, at least doubling that of other companies in the same industry.

Some said that Tenda's benefits were extremely good, with all kinds of reimbursements, subsidies, and bonuses. Tenda had everything you could think of, and even things you couldn't think of.

Others said that Tenda never worked overtime, and employees even took pride in not working overtime.

The most metaphysical saying was that everyone who entered Tenda, no matter how mediocre their abilities were before, would undergo a transformation in a very short period of time...

Of course, the outside world had always been skeptical about these rumors.

This, in turn, made the real situation of Tenda even more confusing, because the rumors were too outrageous, so no one could tell which of these rumors were true and which were false.

Only the longing for Tenda became stronger and stronger.

Even more and more people were willing to come from other cities just to get a good position at Tenda.

Wu Bin was well aware that these rumors were obviously true.

It was just that they violated everyone's common sense, so everyone dared not believe it.

With the popularization of the Tenda spirit, most Tenda employees had become accustomed to keeping silent about President Pei's true identity and Tenda's welfare benefits, which also exacerbated the outside world's lack of understanding of Tenda.

President Pei was so low-key, so the employees would naturally be even more low-key.

Who would be embarrassed to compete with President Pei for credit?

Tenda was able to develop so well, President Pei accounted for at least 70% of the credit, and the others shared the remaining 30%.

Batch after batch of people with different backgrounds and personalities, after unremitting efforts to pass the Tenda entry exam, and then receive unified Tenda spirit training, gradually integrated into this cultural atmosphere and became a member of Tenda.

Wu Bin was one of them.

It had to be said that this was a very interesting experience.

Looking at the bustling crowd, Wu Bin suddenly realized a problem, that Tenda's change to the entire city was constantly and subtly taking place.

This change was on both a material and a spiritual level.

On the material level, Tenda was constantly recruiting employees and providing them with generous salaries. While solving the employment problem, these well-paid employees would start consuming because their lives were guaranteed, stimulating the development of other industries in Jingzhou and the progress of the overall economic level.

The Tenda Group was also constantly entering the physical industry, from internet cafes and take-out to the recent gyms, constantly changing people's material lives.

The driving effect of such an enterprise on the city was obvious.

On the spiritual level, Tenda was also changing everyone's spiritual world.

For employees, it cultivated their habit of working hard and enjoying life, dispelled their anxiety and tension, and broke the vicious circle of workplace involution.

For consumers, Tenda showed them a healthier lifestyle through industries such as internet cafes, Lazy Catering, and gyms, which was also a benign guidance.

Wu Bin suddenly looked back and realized that the Tenda Group's influence was already so far-reaching.

He seemed to understand President Pei's ultimate goal.

However, judging from the current situation, this goal was still too far away.

The Tenda Group's influence was currently only concentrated in Jingzhou. Although it was also expanding to cities such as Lincheng, its influence was still limited after all.

Wu Bin guessed that this was because President Pei was treating Jingzhou as an experimental site, trying to build an ecological closed loop in Jingzhou.

If it were other entrepreneurs, they would definitely choose to open Lazy Catering in a chain nationwide, and then take the opportunity to introduce investment, quickly achieve financial freedom, and start enjoying life.

But President Pei did not intend to do so.

Obviously, he looked down on that money. His goal was more long-term and more arduous.

"Therefore, as a member of the Human Resources Department, in addition to completing daily work, we should also shoulder the mission of promoting the Tenda spirit, so that this spirit can be widely spread, not only among Tenda employees, but also among the general public!"

"So that President Pei's grand goal can be better realized!"

Wu Bin suddenly felt his social responsibility so clearly for the first time.

Before, he was just an ordinary HR, running around to complete the boss's tasks, poaching people, dismissing employees, and lowering salaries.

In order to make a living, his mind was only filled with how to complete the boss's tasks and requirements, and how to support his family.

As for social responsibility? That was too ethereal.

But now, Wu Bin had no worries about food and clothing after joining Tenda, and his work was going smoothly. Naturally, he had the energy to pursue the realization of his self-worth and do some truly meaningful things.

Most importantly, after a long period of receiving President Pei's Tenda spirit, he was very eager to share this spirit.

Just like he used to answer questions for the authors of Qidian Chinese Website.

Wu Bin felt that he should become an interpreter of the Tenda spirit, so that he would not let down President Pei's promotion and cultivation of him!

…

6:00 PM.

After finishing today's recruitment work, Wu Bin ate dinner at the nearby Lazy Catering and prepared to set off for the Qidian Chinese Website training class.

During today's proctoring, Wu Bin had been thinking about how he should complete his mission.

After repeated consideration, Wu Bin decided that he would make more annotations to the Tenda spirit!

Previously, Wu Bin had summarized some content through his understanding of the Tenda spirit, including three major items: efficient work, emphasis on innovation, obedience to leaders, independent thinking, combination of work and rest, and long-term goals.

For a long time, this confidential document had been circulating privately among Tenda employees, and it was strictly forbidden to spread it to internal forums and the internet.

At the same time, Wu Bin also emphasized that this was not a standard textbook, but only a one-sided interpretation, which could only be used for reference, not as the only correct answer, and even less could it represent President Pei's true thoughts.

The interpretation of the Tenda spirit could only be infinitely close to President Pei, and could never assume that this was all of the Tenda spirit and stop there.

Now, Wu Bin felt that he should go a step further, because the objective environment had changed.

For those newly hired employees, even if they saw this annotation of the Tenda spirit, it would be difficult for them to fully understand and thoroughly digest it.

Because compared with the old employees, they lacked the experience of working with President Pei, and in the future, it would be difficult for them to get such an opportunity.

After all, as the Tenda Group's industry expanded, President Pei needed to deal with more and more daily affairs. Obviously, only the heads of various departments could talk to President Pei.

Most of the new employees did not even have the opportunity to talk to President Pei, and they did not even know what specific decisions President Pei had made, so how could they understand President Pei's spirit?

Therefore, Wu Bin felt that to solve this problem, he must make more annotations to the Tenda spirit.

The specific method was to record President Pei's words and deeds, record them in the book, so that newcomers could compare the content of the Tenda spirit and combine President Pei's specific words and deeds to obtain more and more accurate insights.

Just like memorizing English words, you have to combine them with example sentences to better understand them.

However, Wu Bin felt that his writing skills were not good enough.

If it was just summarizing a few keywords, that would be no problem, but if you wanted to write the story vividly, figuratively, and realistically, and not make people feel that it was preaching, and not be disgusted at all, you still needed certain skills.

Therefore, Wu Bin decided to go to the online novelist training class.

After all, Wu Bin had also used the Tenda spirit to guide many authors, so there should be authors who would be willing to work with him to complete this great undertaking, right?

For example, Cui Geng, who was deeply inspired by the Tenda spirit and wrote "Butterfly Game," seemed very suitable.
