Chapter 516: Chapter 480: Hua Jian Interview

After speaking with Qian Kun, Wu Li began to urgently handle the affairs of Hua Jian Security.

On one hand, he requested Liu Yuanbo to expedite the screening process for domestic personnel; on the other hand, he asked He Ye and others to speed up the invitation process for the Southern F Chinese community groups.

By April 15, nearly a month had passed, and He Ye and his team had contacted almost all the Chinese community groups in Southern F that had been approached by "Le Yuan." In the end, about thirty percent of these groups expressed willingness to join Hua Jian Security, fifty percent wanted to wait and see, and twenty percent were determined to collaborate with "Le Yuan."

Wu Li felt this outcome was neither good nor bad.

"Le Yuan’s" overt strength was already strong enough, and they offered quite significant benefits. If it were not for Wu Li demonstrating his exceptional strength and having the support of the National Team afterward, he estimated that more than seventy percent of the Chinese community groups might have chosen to work with "Le Yuan," so the current result was not too bad.

Including Zhiyuan Hall and Zhiqing Hall’s Red Sticks, a total of eleven Chinese community groups in Southern F, adding up to five hundred people, were organized by Wu Li to return to Hua Country and prepare for training.

The domestic screening also reached the final step, the interview stage, where Wu Li personally conducted the interviews and selected a hundred people for training.

That afternoon, at the Bo Yuan Company building in Imperial City, Wu Li conducted the interviews.

A total of 217 candidates had reached the fourth round, meaning that today, more than half the candidates would be eliminated.

"Hello, teachers. Hello, Teacher Wu."

In the interview room, a somewhat green but tall young man stood nervously.

There were three interviewers in total. Wu Li was seated in the middle, with Liu Yuanbo on the right, mainly there to watch; to the left sat a warrior specially sent by Qian Kun, who was also one of the upcoming trainers, named Zhang Heng.

Although Wu Li had System Detection and was as perceptive as the gods, he had still asked Zhang Heng to serve as an interviewer because each profession has its specialization. After all, he was not a professional bodyguard and needed to hear the views of professionals.

According to Qian Kun, Zhang Heng was a bona fide bodyguard from middle N Sea, with rich experience and unquestionably a professional. The candidates today probably never expected that one among those interviewing them was a legendary middle N Sea bodyguard.

"Why do you want to join Hua Jian?" Wu Li asked.

He glanced at the young man and knew his physical data; the applicant was a student from a Martial Arts School, his physical quality was very good among his peers, and he had some foundation in Martial Arts, not just showy tricks.

"Hello, Teacher Wu. I chose to join Hua Jian because I’ve seen the ninth episode of ’Seeking Martial Arts’ and learned about your purpose in establishing Hua Jian Security. I also want to contribute to the country and to the overseas Chinese..."

The candidate talked at length. Wu Li remained non-committal, asked two more questions, then let him go and marked an X beside his name in the register.

The next candidate came in; the process continued, and after interviewing seven or eight candidates, Wu Li marked Xs across all their names.

The next candidate to enter was also a young man.

"Why do you want to join Hua Jian?"

"Okay, I want to join Hua Jian Security because, well, I want to make money," he hesitated then nervously offered his answer.

"Oh?" Wu Li’s expression didn’t change. "Explain further."

"I... my family isn’t very well-off. I want to make money quickly to support my parents!" the young man said. "Although there are many opportunities after graduating from the Martial Arts School, it’s hard to make big money. I think Hua Jian Security is a good opportunity."

The salary offered by Hua Jian Security was definitely a high salary within the industry, even surpassing over 90% of other jobs! And that was just the base salary; specific bonuses and subsidies had not yet been announced. Salary-wise, it indeed had a great appeal to many people.

Wu Li looked at him: "But this job is very dangerous. The reason you all are offered such high salaries is that this job might cause you injuries, disabilities, or even death! Have you thought about the consequences? If you die, how can you support your parents?"

The candidate swallowed, "I’ve thought about the consequences. I’m not an only child; I have a younger brother and sister. Even if I’m gone, they will be there for my parents. Also, the recruitment information mentioned that Hua Jian will provide compensation to the family of an employee in case of injury or death. I believe that money will be enough to support my parents."

"What about you, aren’t you afraid of dying?" Zhang Heng suddenly asked from Wu Li’s left.

The candidate smiled wryly: "Of course I’m scared, but I’ve thought it through. How to live my life is my choice, and I want to take a gamble!"

With that, his eyes firmed up, "I want to take a gamble because I think Hua Jian can change my future!"

Zhang Heng nodded, asked a few more questions, then indicated he had no more questions.

Wu Li looked at him: "Alright, you can go out and wait for the notification."

The candidate nodded quickly: "Thank you, Teacher Wu. Thank you, teachers."

He bowed and then left the room.

Liu Yuanbo glanced at Wu Li, noticed that Wu Li had made a check mark under the candidate’s name, and curiously asked, "Master, why did you decide to choose him?"

Wu Li didn’t immediately answer Liu Yuanbo but turned to Zhang Heng on his left. Seeing that he had also made a check mark under the same name, he couldn’t help but smile and said, "Zhang Heng, maybe you could explain why you made a check mark."

Zhang Heng replied seriously, "In this profession, especially for personal bodyguards, the most important thing is not skill but mindset. Unlike the military, we can’t train their faith slowly, so having personal motives is actually a good thing as long as they are positive and beneficial for the work."

Wu Li nodded: "Exactly. I saw ambition in that person’s eyes. He is honest and seems sincere, so I decided to hire him."

Actually, the 217 candidates who came for interviews today all had similar physical qualities, with few exceptions in terms of professional skills among the rest, so Wu Li’s main purpose during the interviews was to assess their character and mindset to see if they were suitable for being professional bodyguards.

"Wu Li." Zhang Heng suddenly turned to look at Wu Li.

Wu Li, "What is it?"

Zhang Heng, "Interviewing one by one is too inefficient. How about interviewing a dozen at once? I can also conduct some on-the-spot tests on these people."

Wu Li agreed without hesitation, "Sure, let’s do it your way."

He was also curious to see how this professional would select candidates.

Thus, the message was quickly passed along, and subsequently, ten people entered the interview room at the same time.

PS: I have to get up at five tomorrow morning to catch a plane, so I need to go to bed early tonight and can only write this much.
