Chapter 226: Interview (2) Crushing Gu Yansheng
Chapter 226
In the lobby.
Ye Jinghuai's appearance still took everyone by surprise.
The so-called civil servants of North Wen Country were actually the reserve personnel of North Wen Country. Once they passed the civil servant exam, they would have the opportunity to join the ruling families.
In North Wen Country, the ruling families held power.
They could control many things in North Wen Country.
Therefore...
Any young person with a little ambition who wanted to go into politics would choose this path.
Fortunately.
This path was relatively fair and open to the outside world.
As long as they didn't commit any crimes, they could take the exam and then interview to join the ruling families through an examination and interview.
This whole process was also fair, just and open.
After all, North Wen Country had two major ruling families that checked each other.
Plus, since this was the path for them to select talent for themselves, no one would dig pits for themselves. So there were almost no cases of favoritism.
"Ye Third Young Master actually came for the interview too." One of the interviewees said in surprise.
It was understandable that Gu Yan Sheng gave up business for politics.
After all, Gu Yan Sheng seemed to have been constantly improving himself and steering himself in this direction over the years. He had also repeatedly stated to the media that he was not interested in doing business. He hoped that he could fulfill his own responsibility and contribute to the country.
His words revealed his intention to join the ruling families.
However, Ye Jinghuai was completely unexpected.
Before getting married, he was just a playboy without any reputation or image, whose only label was that he had many women. Although there were fewer women after his marriage, there was no news that he wanted to join the ruling families. Although he didn't seem to have gone to work in the Ye family company, Ye Eldest Young Master and Ye Second Young Master weren't much older than Ye Third Young Master. Ye Second Young Master was even Ye Eldest Young Master's twin brother. Those two could now hold up the Ye family business, yet Ye Third Young Master still hadn't accomplished anything.
No one expected that Ye Jinghuai would choose this path for himself.
Even if he didn't go into business and lived as a wastrel for the rest of his life, it was impossible for him to come here.
Did he even know how difficult it was to become a civil servant?
Aside from the test scores, there was also a harsh interview.
The interview placed great emphasis on a person's personal circumstances. A man tangled in scandals like Ye Jinghuai simply couldn't get past the threshold to join the ruling families.
"Maybe he just came to play around." The interviewees whispered among themselves.
"I just don't know how he passed the written exam."
"It must have been fake." Someone asserted firmly.
"Who knows. But the civil service exam must be strict without any cheating. Maybe he just got lucky and barely crossed the passing line by chance."
"Possible."
"By the way, Young Master Gu, you were first place, right?" That interviewee still asked curiously.
Gu Yan Sheng's expression changed slightly at that moment.
He had also thought he was first place.
But when he checked his exam results, he was actually second place.
He had clearly studied for a long time.
He had even gotten some of the exam questions in advance, yet he still didn't expect to be crushed underfoot by someone else.
"It must have been you." Since the interviewee didn't get an answer, he just determined it was his own guess.
The civil service exam results were indeed not publicly announced with the examinees' scores.
Only the examinees themselves could look up their own scores and rankings.
Gu Yan Sheng didn't refute it, so he naturally felt that the first place, who didn't dare come out and argue with him, had tacitly agreed.
Without a second thought, Gu Yan Sheng felt that the first placer must be a bookworm who had never seen the world and certainly wouldn't dare to steal his limelight.
He was even thinking that during the interview, he must obtain the first placer's scores, take first place in total score, and join the ruling families.
Just as he was thinking this, a staff member suddenly appeared in the lobby.
He looked serious and seemed unapproachable.
He said, "There are 5 minutes left before the interview time. The interview order will be decided based on the written exam scores. The first place will interview first, and so on in order.”
As soon as the staff member finished speaking...
The faces of all the interviewees in the lobby changed.
Wasn't Gu Yan Sheng the first placer?
How did it suddenly become Ye Jinghuai!
Ye Jinghuai?!
He was actually able to test first place.
If they didn't know how strict the civil service exam was, they would suspect Ye Jinghuai of secretly rigging the results.
Knowing that there was no nepotism or cheating...
Everyone looked at Ye Jinghuai differently.
Ye Jinghuai, on the other hand, looked completely nonchalant.
At that moment, he deliberately glanced at Gu Yan Sheng.
No one knew how the man whose face was slapped by Ye Jinghuai at every turn felt inside.
His psychology must have been distorted.
"Alright, I will now read out the list. Everyone remember your numbers. The interviews later will be conducted in numerical order," the staff member said mechanically. "Number 1, Ye Jinghuai; Number 2, Gu Yan Sheng; Number 3..."
As soon as his voice rang out...
All the interviewees in the lobby were shocked.
Wasn't Gu Yan Sheng the first placer?
How did it suddenly become Ye Jinghuai!
Ye Jinghuai?!
He was actually able to test first place.
The first five placed followed him into the interview hall.
In the interview hall sat ten people.
They looked very imposing.
And somewhat...oppressive.
"I want to especially remind the interviewees before the interview that in order to make the interviews fairer, we have installed cameras in the interview hall that are live streaming to the entire Internet. Please pay attention to your words, actions and manners, interview panelists." The staff member said, "First place interviewee Ye Jinghuai, please do a self-introduction.”
Ye Jinghuai politely nodded slightly to the staff member and said politely, "Thank you."
It gave people the feeling that he was very well-mannered.
He turned to face the interview panelists in front of him and said, "My name is Ye Jinghuai, 25 years old this year, married. I graduated from Ford University with a master's degree in economics and a dual degree. My minor was in social justice studies and I had excellent grades. After graduating with my master's degree at 22, I returned to Qing City and joined Ye’s Group to work. Since I didn't have much interest in doing business, I chose to leave in less than a month. After that, I started self-studying political and related books at home. I passed the adult classes at North Wen Country’s highest Civil Affairs University to obtain a bachelor's degree equivalent to a full-time on campus degree. My graduation thesis was published on the Civil Affairs University's official website as an exemplar..."
An Nuan was actually sitting in her office at work but took a break to watch Ye Jinghuai's interview.
When she heard him introduce himself as "married", she inexplicably felt...
Unspeakable emotions.
In a self-introduction for a normal interview, it was very rare to voluntarily introduce one's marital status.
Ye Jinghuai's mind circuit was indeed different from everyone else's.
Ye Jinghuai's background later also similarly shocked An Nuan.
An Nuan knew his education level was very high.
It made her grandma's face swell at their wedding.
But she didn't expect...
This guy actually hid so many more...achievements.
He clearly played around every day.
Back then, his scandalous news could be seen almost every day.
Could it be that he was studying and preparing while sleeping with women at the same time?!
Could she give Ye Jinghuai an award for "Most Hardworking"?!
