Sun Hao touched his hair oil in front of the mirror and tied his tie. Then, he sat on the bed and rubbed his leather shoes with shoe polish. He wiped them left and right again and again. He was very serious.
Li Lan couldn't help but ask, "It's just an interview. There's no need to be so formal. Is it necessary to wear a tie on such a hot day?"
Everyone in the dorm was busy, and he was the only one who was free, which made him feel guilty.
Sun Hao said, "I'm going to Zhongguancun today to apply for a job as a front-end development engineer for NetEase."
"Didn't you pass the written test?" Out of curiosity, Li Lan and a few of his classmates participated in the campus recruitment and took a few written tests. One of them was from NetEase.
Sun Hao said, "After the written test, there's still an interview. If only it was so easy to get into a big company. Some of them even have one or two interviews. The competition is fierce."
"That's troublesome." Li Lan didn't think about the job, so he naturally didn't know the process. He thought for a while and said, "Do you want me to introduce you to a job?"
He had never used his father's resources to do anything for himself, but seeing his classmate of four years in such a difficult situation, he couldn't help but want to help.
Sun Hao put on his shoes and stomped on the ground. He tightened his tie and said with his head held high, "I'm not going to talk to you anymore. If I can pass this interview, I'll treat you to dinner tonight."
Li Lan said, "Then I wish you success and success."
"Mom, don't worry. I'm fine." The voice came from the corridor outside the dorm.
Li Lan recognized the voice as Bai Xuefeng. He pushed the door open and came in while talking on the phone. "Well, the job is very simple. All I have to do is sit in front of the computer every day. I don't have to be tired. It's very relaxing. The salary is more than four thousand a month. Yes … yes, you and dad should take care of your health at home. Don't tire yourself out …
I'm not young anymore. You don't need to worry about me. What? "
He suddenly raised his voice. "Whose land did you pick up this time? Don't plant so much. You guys are too busy. I'm married. Why would I get married? I don't even have a partner.
If I'm capable, I'll marry myself. If not, I'll just stay like this for now. I'm not that old anyway. You guys, living a good life is more important than anything else … "
Sun Hao tidied himself up and left the dormitory with a laptop bag containing his resume and various award certificates. Before he left, Bai Xuefeng gave him a thumbs up. He nodded with a smile and walked away with his head held high.
Hanging up the phone, Bai Xuefeng lit a cigarette and sighed, "The wind is bleak, the water is cold, the hero will never return."
Li Lan said, "Why are you making it sound so sad? It's just finding a job. Although computer science isn't a double-class subject, it's at least a graduate from a double-class university. I saw on the news online that the starting salary is three thousand yuan. Besides, didn't you find a job? Four thousand yuan should be fine, right? "
He wasn't sure.
"Who said I found a job?" Bai Xuefeng said, "Every unit asked me to wait for news, but there's no news at all."
"Then just now on the phone …" Li Lan had just heard Bai Xuefeng's call.
Bai Xuefeng said, "I'm afraid that the old people will worry for nothing. If I tell them that I don't have a job now, they will be worried to death.
Back then, I was the pride of the whole village when I went to college in the capital. "
"Really?" Li Lan was puzzled, "Which unit did you apply for?"
Although the students in their major didn't have high standards, they were more than enough to be a coder.
"Microsoft Internet Research, Perfect World … About five or six." Bai Xuefeng said and sighed again.
Li Lan rolled his eyes and said, "Then you should go to graduate school. It's better to graduate with a PhD."
Bai Xuefeng took off his shoes, sat cross-legged on the table and continued, "Sigh, it's fine if the job isn't satisfactory. The key is that I don't even have a girlfriend. Finally, a girl from another major found me, but she's really a computer repairman. She forced me to learn how to repair computers by myself. The computer composition principles, data structure, operating system, computer network, algorithms, are all useless. Now, the level of computer repair is even higher than my professional level. "
Li Lan laughed, "You're willing. Who's to blame?"
He also knew how to repair computers, but it was his mother who forced him to do so.
He almost went berserk when his mother said, "A computer major doesn't know how to repair computers". He couldn't believe that this sentence came from the mouth of a person who had received higher education and was engaged in higher education.
He couldn't refute it because his father and mother both majored in physics and knew how to repair all kinds of household appliances …
He could only sigh that the university students in the past were really awesome …
Fortunately, the problem of the computer at home wasn't complicated. He could just look up the tutorials on the internet. If he really couldn't fix it, he could just buy a bunch of motherboards, hard drives, RAM, dismantle the computer and try to replace them one by one.
What he was most afraid of was people like his uncle Li Kuo and aunt Li Yan, who were illiterate or semi-illiterate. They actually asked him to steal their QQ account and hack their computer …
He couldn't do it, he really couldn't!
Bai Xuefeng said, "Third Brother broke up with his girlfriend. It's really like that saying, graduation is breaking up."
Li Lan said, "It can't be. The two of them were still very intimate last month, but now they're showing off their relationship."
Bai Xuefeng said, "I didn't expect Liang Ya to be so capable. She dared to look down on Third Brother after going out for an internship for three months."
Li Lan asked, "Where is he now?"
Bai Xuefeng looked at his phone and said, "I think he's on the train now. He's going back to his hometown to take the civil servant exam. He left as soon as he came out of the auditorium. I just called him and found out. I think he's very sad."
Li Lan said, "I'll give him a call later."
Bai Xuefeng patted the green canvas bag next to his leg, then stood up and stretched. "I have to go too. Let's get together and drink some wine when we have time."
Li Lan asked, "Where are you going?"
"A rented house in Tangjialing." Bai Xuefeng carried the thick canvas bag on his shoulder and waved with one hand. "I'm going. See you later."
"Hey," Li Lan shouted at him, "Remember to call me if you need money. I'll give you a low interest rate."
He knew Bai Xuefeng's family situation.
Bai Xuefeng came from the countryside. He had five siblings and he was the third oldest. His parents had built houses for his two older brothers and arranged for them to get married. They had exhausted their efforts and savings.
His younger brother was a failure and was a petty thief. The whole family had to spend a lot of money to deal with him.
His youngest sister was still in high school. Even if they didn't spend money, they still had to spend five to six hundred yuan a month.
With such a family situation, he didn't dare to ask for too much. After he went to university, he had to earn his own living.
"I'm not someone who needs money!" Bai Xuefeng didn't even turn his head.
Li Lan followed him to the staircase. He leaned on the railing and watched him slowly walk down the long staircase. The staircase disappeared at the corner of each floor, but appeared again after a while.
