How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?-Chapter 311 - 150 Junior Capital Leader_2
But now that he possessed the "Junior Capital Leader" skill, even a cursory glance could reveal many issues. He immediately closed the resume and smiled at the seated individuals, saying, "I will just briefly mention this.
The company is in its nascent stage, currently in a state where much is yet to be done. Regarding the duties, as I clearly stated previously with Emerson Company, the first interview will only discuss executive positions. Today, the only executive position I intend to interview for is that of the general manager."
As Gu Heng finished speaking, everyone seated opposite him nodded in understanding.
They had come to the interview aiming for these senior positions...
Seeing that they had nothing to add, Gu Heng also crossed his legs comfortably, threw the resume aside, and directly said, "Then you may briefly introduce yourselves."
Seeing that Zhang Fei was still planning to introduce himself, Gu Heng raised his hand, "Director Zhang has already introduced himself earlier. If you have anything to add, you can do so at the end."
Zhang Fei was slightly taken aback...
But he still sat down again with a smile.
Gu Heng glanced at the youngest interviewee; he appeared to be only about 30 years old...
He then addressed him, "Let’s start with this gentleman."
Upon hearing Gu Heng’s words, He Chun stood up and immediately began his introduction, "Chairman Gu, hello, my name is He Chun. I graduated from Harvard Business School with an MBA degree. During my studies, I interned at Sequoia Capital and subsequently held important positions such as investment advisor, having a good understanding of the current capital market, and I possess the IPMA certificate from the International Professional Managers Association."
Gu Heng nodded at his words and then asked a simple question, "So, you have not yet had experience as a senior executive in a large enterprise?"
He Chun shook his head, "I have been pursuing an MBA degree from Harvard Business School until now, and aside from internships, I do not have much work experience.
However, I believe in my capability to fulfil the position of general manager at IDE Capital. Like the company, I am young and I am confident in my ability to secure a position for the company in the Hua Country financial investment market!"
Gu Heng smiled and then softly clapped his hands...
Being the boss, he hadn’t yet offered them any promises, and here he was making promises to himself...
Without further ado, Gu Heng’s gaze directly moved to the next person.
This time, it was a middle-aged man, likely in his fifties...
Upon catching Gu Heng’s gaze, he also started to introduce himself, "Chairman Gu, hello, my name is Wu Shufeng. I graduated from Shanghai Jiaotong University. I served as the deputy director of venture capital at Legend Capital for 3 years and as a venture capital advisor at Qiming Venture Partners for 4 years. I also went overseas and worked as a financial investment advisor at IDG Capital."
Gu Heng picked up the resume in his hand, flipped to Wu Shufeng’s page, and looking at the extremely complex resume, he could not help but frown and asked, "I see from your resume that you have about 15 years of experience in senior positions in the financial investment industry?"
Just as a smile appeared on Wu Shufeng’s face, he heard Gu Heng’s voice continue, "But why doesn’t your resume include any classic investment cases? Is it too lengthy to explain in a resume?
Could you describe some orally?"
Wu Shufeng hesitated for a moment, then slowly replied, "I have been involved in roughly 140 investments, among which, twelve were billion-level projects."
"What about the outcomes? How many of them were profitable?"
"About 20% of the projects were profitable."
This time, Gu Heng glanced at President Chu and with a hint of amusement in his tone, said, "President Chu, is the commission I’m paying too low?
I recall Brother Yang telling me that a general headhunting firm’s commission is about 20% of the appointed person’s annual salary, right? I think my 30% commission should be quite reasonable, shouldn’t it?"
President Chu, upon hearing Gu Heng’s words, twitched his eyelids, knowing that Gu Heng was becoming irritated...
He quickly inquired, "Chairman Gu, why do you suddenly say this?"
Gu Heng shifted to a more comfortable position, switched his crossed leg, intertwined his fingers and rested his hands on his thigh, displaying his capitalist demeanor in full...
Gu Heng had seen this posture on television before and had never thought of mimicking it, but just now, perhaps the "Junior Business Leader" passive skill had kicked in, and this posture naturally came to him...
But said or unsaid...
This posture perfectly exhibited an authoritative stance...
Instantly, silence enveloped the large living room...
Lizi was still okay, after all, born into a family of high-ranking officials, she knew more big shots than most people had ever seen...
But Jiang Ruxue was experiencing this scene for the first time and couldn’t help but hold her breath slightly...
At first, she thought Gu Heng was just a rich second-generation, running a company that was more playful in nature...
But now, her opinion of Gu Heng was gradually changing...
Just then, Gu Heng’s voice rang out.
"President Chu, first let me say, when I founded this company, the registered capital alone had already reached 300 million, and just the rental of office space cost over 50 million. You should be clear about this, right?"
Chu Xiao hurriedly nodded in agreement.
"I have also mentioned my requirements to you at Emerson Headhunting Company before.
That is, I am currently working on a 20 billion RMB project with the International Racetrack in Yangcheng City, with initial investments at the level of several billion, so I need a professional manager with a deep resume and strong capabilities. As for salary, I have no limit, as long as I feel the capabilities fit, even if it’s an annual salary of 100 million, I can provide it.
Did I say this or not?"
Chu Xiao finally understood why Gu Heng suddenly lost his temper...
It was dissatisfaction with the interviewees they brought...
With this thought, Chu Xiao hastily explained, "Chairman Gu, I understand what you mean...however, the timing was too tight, these candidates are the most suitable talents our company could find for your company..."
Gu Heng’s lips curled up, and he couldn’t help but chuckle...
One, over 30, with only education, no real experience, a gilt-edged pawn...
Another, over 50, moved between six or seven companies, never achieving anything noteworthy, a washed-up old-timer...
Is this treating his own company like an internship company and a retirement home?
But these thoughts Gu Heng kept to himself, as they couldn’t be stated outright...
Even if he didn’t look up to these applicants, to say it outright would be too insulting...
But while he himself couldn’t speak these thoughts, Chu Xiao, who had taken his money, that was whom he could very freely insult...

With this thought, Gu Heng spoke directly, "If that’s the case, I think I might have overestimated the capabilities of Emerson Headhunting. But no worries, let’s continue with this interview session, but let’s cancel any subsequent collaboration."
After finishing, he showed a mild smile to the interviewees, "Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize, but I feel that your resumes don’t quite suit the general manager position at our company. However, there is still a project director position available for you to compete for, if you are interested?"
These people had all come for the general manager position, so hearing that they had been shifted from the decision-making to the upper management layer, they all felt somewhat dissatisfied...
They were already executives at other large enterprises, so who jumps to a newly established enterprise to become an executive?
They weren’t out of their minds.
With this thought, He Chun, Zhang Fei, Wu Shufeng, and two others who had not yet introduced themselves immediately stood up.
"Thank you very much for the hospitality today, Mr. Gu. It’s a pity we couldn’t come to an agreement on cooperation, but we hope there will still be opportunities in the future."
Each expressed nearly the same sentiment...
Gu Heng smiled and nodded without even standing up, "If we can’t cooperate, we can still be friends. Why don’t you stay for a simple meal?"
Gu Heng was merely being polite, and the others knew it too, so Zhang Fei replied, "I have other engagements this afternoon, so I won’t stay. Next time we get the chance, we’ll have Mr. Gu join us for a meal."
Seeing the others also meant the same, Gu Heng did not insist, shrugged his shoulders, and gestured to Xu Ying to see the guests off.
Xu Ying was still brewing tea, but little did she expect that the interviews would nearly be over by the time the tea was only halfway done, and she had to step forward to show the five departing individuals the way...
Meanwhile, Gu Heng turned his gaze to the remaining two interviewees who had not yet left.
