Restoration [Interstellar]

Chapter 31

"Where did I say something wrong?" The man looked a little ashamed and angry, but he still sat firmly in his seat and lowered his voice. If he didn't know the reason, the two seemed to be peaceful in the eyes of outsiders. What did they exchange, but it was just a little serious, "As a housekeeper, I only know how to make publicity.; What do you think a housekeeper is? The humility and low-key required by this profession have not been reflected in you at all. Don't think that you are If you get a name in the so-called gold medal butler competition, you are really a gold medal steward. That kind of competition is just a circus for the entertainment of the public."

"Thank you very much for your advice, sir." With a smile on her face, Xia Xi appeared very polite and gentle, but her attitude was firm, and she did not show any signs of retreat or panic in the face of her elders. "To be honest, the impetuous reputation gained by participating in the competition is It did bring me a lot of confusion and made me very uneasy. As a prospective graduate who is about to graduate in one year, I am very worried that I will have a negative impact on my younger brothers and sisters. After all, young people are always very nervous. It is easy to be attracted by these vain things. As the head of the grade, I should have set an example. Although I did not actively seek these vain fame, it still had a bad influence. Therefore, on this issue, I am still very grateful for the teachings of my predecessors.”

Speaking of which, the men, including the other housekeepers who quietly watched the interview, showed the unique pride and tolerance of their seniors, as if Xia Xi had already retreated and surrendered to them, and in order to show their magnanimity as seniors, they could not take advantage of the victory , appearing too aggressive.

"However, that's not what I want to talk about." At this moment, Xia Xi suddenly changed the subject, "You just said: 'You only know how to make a sensation, so you might as well just become an actor, and save him from insulting the housekeeper. Occupation', I think this sentence really came from your mouth, there is not one more word, nor one word missing."

The man hesitated for a moment: "I did say that. What's wrong?"

"First of all, I think, as an excellent housekeeper, you probably don't know that the word 'player' is a contemptuous and derogatory term."

As soon as the man heard him say this, he immediately realized what Xia Xi was going to do.

However, Xia Xi didn't give him a chance to speak: "Secondly, you said 'you only know how to sensationalize and attract people's attention', so 'it's better to be an actor directly', then, do you mean that all artists only know how to sensationalize and gain attention?" people pay attention?"

"I'm sorry, sir. Different people have different views on the industry of entertainers. In fact, many people in the industry of butlers have prejudices. I don't expect that I can change your views on this industry. But— —”

His tone suddenly became serious and solemn, and the polite smile on his face disappeared completely, even looking a little aggressive.

"My elder brother is an artist. He, as well as his colleagues and many of his friends in the entertainment industry, are not people who only know how to sensationalize and attract people's attention. Although you don't agree, but in my heart, He is an artist, and his art is performance. Although the identity of an artist makes him bear more vanity and vanity, all the achievements he has obtained, including those fame that you don't see as stern vanity, are also through his hard work Learn and work hard.

"I hope you will take your words back and apologize for using such belittling and humiliating phrases and words."

"You..." There was a hint of annoyance on the man's face.

Their voices were not high, and they didn't have any violent body movements, but they still attracted everyone's attention in the originally quiet room where you could hear every needle dropped.

Of course, Xia Xi, who has no practical work experience but came from behind, is not liked by everyone, but it is also very pleasant to see other competitors deflated.Everyone watched the man react like a play.

At this moment, the person who was talking to the man stood up and said, "Young man, he is your elder after all. When everyone makes slips of the tongue, you should not be so aggressive."

Xia Xi insisted: "The elders have taught me, no matter whether I made a mistake or not, of course I must listen carefully and be taught humbly. But this elder insulted my brother. Although it was a slip of the tongue, it was also a mistake. Since it was a mistake, I should apologize .If I was personally humiliated, I would naturally not say anything, but when it comes to my elder brother, I can’t pretend to be deaf and dumb, allowing my family members to be humiliated by others. Come to think of it, if you are called a steward by those who don’t understand the profession of steward You are a servile slave, and your family members will do their best to maintain your dignity."

We've come to this point, and the matter has come to this point, Xia Xi's tough attitude clearly shows that if the man doesn't apologize, this matter will never end.Of course, men can also refuse to apologize, but Xia Xi's smart brain has completely recorded the conversation just now from beginning to end. Once it is put on the Internet, coupled with a suitable pusher, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble. A sensation will definitely have a big impact on his life and work.

Just for the moment's face, so that the future will not be safe?The man was silent for a moment, stood up and nodded slightly, lowered his head and said, "I apologize for what I just said."

Xia Xi accepted the apology, then bowed deeply, and said, "I also want to thank the seniors for teaching the juniors."

The man turned sideways, refused his salute, and said, "Please delete the video."

Xia Xi raised her arm and deleted the video in front of everyone.After the man sat down, he sat down next to Olier again.

Olier looked at Xia Xi meaningfully.Xia Xi's move was not shrewd.After the Federal Gold Medal Butler Competition, Xia Xi, who won the silver medal, received too much attention, and these attentions were more because of his age, handsome appearance, and Xia Xi's overly entertaining and sensational attitude this year. His expression during the scenario simulation session, and as a new butler just about to enter the internship period, his reputation does not match his professional skills and strength at all.In the world, many people don't like him, and the man's words probably speak out the hearts of many people.

If Xia Xi refuted, then he would be seen as arrogant, conceited, and arrogant.But if he doesn't say anything, it will make people feel that he is easy to bully. Before he is forgotten by the media, I am afraid that there will be many such things.

Neither can people feel that they can't listen to "hard advice", nor can they make people feel that they are easy to bully. To achieve such an effect, Xia Xi can only show her tough attitude from another aspect, to "protect her brother's Dignity" this kind of person can't pick a thorn, and they have to boast a reason of brotherhood to make the other party bow their heads.

So there was the scene just now.Although the other party's apology was not aimed at Xia Xi, it was indeed a bow.Xia Xi's goal has been achieved, and now, no one will think that this young man, who is still a year away from graduating from a comprehensive college, is a small character who can be rubbed and flattened by others.

"What's wrong?" Xia Xi looked at Olier with a smile.Olier shrugged and almost whispered, "I've never seen you like this. But, well done."

Xia Xi twitched the corners of her mouth, but said nothing.

In another room, the interviewers looked at the monitor screen and whispered to each other.

Wen Zheng stood at the front, and after the discussion subsided, he raised his hand, pointed to several people on the screen, including the man who had clashed with Xia Xi, and said, "You don't need to think about these people. We There is no need for people who cause trouble, or who are too keen on right and wrong."

The person standing next to Wenzheng smiled and said, "Could it be that you hope that the recruits will act like robots and be indifferent to things other than the program?"

Wen Zheng said indifferently: "I just don't want to hire someone who will cause trouble. When it's time to work, it's enough to work hard. Isn't it good to spend the rest of the time enjoying life? But some people insist on tossing around to form gangs and cooperate with each other. Attack and annihilate."

There was an eerie silence in the room.Everyone couldn't help but think of the reason why they are standing here now.

Many housekeepers in personal service are very likely to have other relationships with their employers, even in the Federal Military University, although the rules and regulations prohibit the school's teachers, researchers, and students as first-class citizens of Cortez Cross-border relations with employees of second-class citizens.

The mermaid from the Glarence family, the matter between him and the teacher he was in charge of was just the most common scene in the entire Federal Military University. Although there was a gender mutation and pregnancy, as long as the child was aborted and the hormone was injected, It will still turn back into a male, and all this can be solved by taking a month's sick leave.

But because of the power dispute in the logistics department, this unlucky mermaid was singled out by the enemy, as a typical violation of the rules, and used to attack the opponent's camp.

At that time, it was the time when the battle between the Federation and the Empire was at its fiercest. As the personal butler of the Generalissimo, Wen Zheng had to put aside the affairs of the Military University and No. 7 Madeleine Street, and went to the front to take care of the Generalissimo.Because of Wen Zheng's absence, some people were eager to move, trying to stir up trouble while Wen Zheng was away.

However, as soon as Wen Zheng came back, he immediately suppressed them all with strong means, mobilized and demoted them, split up the profit cooperation network, promoted new people, disturbed the stagnant pool, but brought new vitality and balance.It is just because of the particularity of the military university that it is not easy to dismiss employees. Therefore, after this turmoil, the only victim is the mermaid from the Glarence family.

Thinking of this, and thinking of Wen Zheng's resolute style of conduct and ruthless methods, everyone couldn't help feeling a little frightened.The person standing next to Wenzheng said flatteringly: "I think this Xia Xi is pretty good. He advances and retreats well, has backbone, is also humble, and can hold his breath. He doesn't look around except to talk to his friends when he sits down. , It seems that you are not nervous at all, and it seems that your mental quality is good."

Wen Zheng sneered and said, "Humility? I've seen him go crazy and force others to apologize. How can he show his humility?"

The other party was taken aback, and murmured: "It's also for the family."

Wen Zheng snorted, and said, "Observe for another two hours, and kick out those who are impatient, stand up and socialize everywhere, and talk to each other. Then take the rest of the people to dinner, and officially start the interview in the afternoon." Said After that, he left the monitoring room.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and only after Wen Zheng walked away did they begin to discuss the performance of the interviewees on the monitoring screen again.

For one morning, everyone sat in the waiting room and waited. I asked the staff several times, but all I got was the answer that the logistics department had an emergency meeting and the interviewer was in a meeting.Everyone is getting more and more anxious, but the performance is more relaxed and casual.

"You said, will this also be part of the interview content?" Olier asked in a low voice.

"It must be." Xia Xi said casually. He knew that he would definitely get the position, so he didn't care whether it was part of the interview or not.However, he would rather not know anything, and he could be as nervous about the upcoming interview as Biren.

"If so, what do the interviewers want to investigate?" Olier asked.

Xia Xi thought for a moment, and said: "Maybe it depends on how we handle interpersonal relationships in an unfamiliar environment." He smiled, "I can only say, fortunately, I am the youngest one? Sitting still is the best A good choice, making friends with seniors everywhere will only cause people to be disgusted."

Olier smiled and said, "Then it seems that I have to sit like you, after all, I'm only one year older than you."

The morning passed very slowly and boringly, and time seemed to be frozen.Some people are silent, but some people chat with people everywhere and make friends with each other. They have exchanged brain numbers, and it seems that they are already very good friends.

Xia Xi was also accosted two or three times, but he was very vigilant and did not give out his brain number.

When it was almost noon, someone suddenly pushed the door and entered. The man was wearing a three-piece suit, with a military university badge pinned to his chest, and an armband on his arm, which seemed to signify his status as a housekeeper.He walked to the middle of the room, looked around, and said, "Mr. Doris, Mr. Carlisle..." He read a series of names, "These people, you don't need to participate in the interview, please leave as soon as possible. The rest, Please follow me to the cafeteria, the interview will officially start in the afternoon."
