Chapter 719: Chapter 719 Two Drama Queens!_1

Bai Xiaosheng took a rather unorthodox approach in the first round of scenario simulation. Through a verbal fencing match, he actually made a few examiners see him in a new light.

This set a precedent for Wei Long, Jiang Yun, Sun Xiaqiu, and Zhao Shuangping.

When it was Wei Long’s turn, he also spoke with conviction, "If I, as a deputy, fail to identify and solve problems in a timely manner, and only report them when the enterprises are already suffering losses, then I might as well resign..."

Playing this game, are we?

Feng Li watched him with a poker face, and, with a cold glance, also peeked at Bai Xiaosheng.

What a nice precedent you have set!

Bai Xiaosheng wore an innocent expression.

After all, having finished his own answer, he surely couldn’t be expected to control whether others used the same tactic.

Feng Li raised her hand, knocked on the table with her knuckles, and interrupted Wei Long’s impassioned speech.

"Resigning again?" Feng Li scoffed, "The corporation chose you for key positions, not to play at resigning! If you want to resign, I can satisfy that request right now! At the very least, I can put you on the elimination list!"

Wei Long’s face turned pale immediately.

"No, Officer Feng, is there a problem with what I said? But Bai Xiaosheng, he, he had the same idea and you seemed supportive. Is repetition not allowed?" Wei Long looked somewhat unconvinced and glanced at Bai Xiaosheng.

"General Wei, don’t just see the ’meat and wine pass through, but the Buddha stays in your heart’. There’s also the latter half of that saying, ’If the common folk try to emulate me, it is as if they are entering the path of demons’!" Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile, teasingly, "How do you know the examiners are all satisfied? Maybe Officer Feng Li is still holding back points!"

As he spoke, Bai Xiaosheng gave Officer Feng Li a deep look.

"Well said!" Feng Li pointed at Bai Xiaosheng and said to the people around her, "For disrupting the order of the examination room, deduct twenty percent of the points he just earned!"

Bai Xiaosheng’s expression immediately soured.

Wei Long and the others were taken aback.

"I am giving you a chance now, Mr. Wei Long, whether you choose to speak again, or end up like him!" Officer Feng asked.

Wei Long looked at the examiners in horror as they changed the scores.

This damn Bai Xiaosheng, getting into a squabble with Officer Feng Li, looking for trouble! Better not to follow in his footsteps!

"I’m willing to change!" Wei Long immediately said.

"You have one minute. Speak!" Officer Feng huffed and glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, a thought crossing her mind.

This guy... was he perhaps doing it on purpose just now, aiming to stand out while giving a pretext to deduct points?

The words from before also carried an implied message!

Officer Feng Li looked deeply at Bai Xiaosheng, who gave her an ambiguous smile in return.

"How cunning of you, Mr. Bai Xiaosheng, not to give me prior notice and to hint at me on the spot!"

Officer Feng Li was more certain now and internally snorted. She really wanted to leave him alone, to let him score high and be sternly reprimanded by the next examiner!

Of course, that was just what Officer Feng Li thought in her mind.

Nevertheless, such help was possible to provide.

While Officer Feng Li pondered, Wei Long hastily revised his opinions, thinking on his feet, which naturally wasn’t going to be particularly impressive.

The examiners shook their heads slightly, evidently not very satisfied.

Wei Long’s expression was pained, and he looked at Bai Xiaosheng with a distressed frown.

All because of him, leading himself into a mess!

The remaining three, Jiang Yun, Sun Xiaqiu, Zhao Shuangping, with the lesson of Wei Long before them, didn’t dare to give answers that were too unconventional, speaking in a standard manner, each feeling somewhat uneasy.

"Good, now Wei Long, you are the head of the regional industry; Jiang Yun, you are the deputy; and the rest of you are general managers!"

Officer Feng Li began to have everyone switch roles.

"Listen up now..."

Following that, Officer Feng Li set up another scenario.

Compared to the first one, it was much simpler.

Wei Long thought for a moment, then spoke confidently. Excluding Officer Feng Li, two of the four examiners nodded in agreement. Another showed satisfaction in their eyes.

"Not bad. Jiang Yun, continue," Officer Feng Li also said.

Jiang Yun made his case, and an examiner nodded in approval. Then came Sun Xiaqiu and Zhao Shuangping, who were designated as the deputy manager and general manager, respectively, before it was finally Bai Xiaosheng’s turn.

"I don’t agree with their handling; I think we can be more nuanced and not make sweeping generalizations." Bai Xiaosheng spoke freely, criticizing Wei Long’s handling and Jiang Yun’s viewpoint and was about to continue.

Officer Feng Li frowned and tapped on the table.

"Did I ask you to critique what others have said? It seems you have no new perspective! In that case, I consider you in agreement with the others!"

As she spoke, Officer Feng Li coldly instructed someone nearby, "According to the rules, give him the lowest score!"

"But..." The examiners exchanged glances.

Indeed, what Bai Xiaosheng had just said did build on the points of others, but it really wasn’t just parroting somebody else’s wisdom!

Even the examiners felt that Bai Xiaosheng had some highlights, some merit in his words.

"Isn’t that a bit too much," said an examiner next to Officer Feng Li with a forced smile. "Just now, Mr. Wei Long was given a chance to restate his point. Perhaps we could also give Mr. Bai Xiaosheng a minute to restate his case."

This assistant Affairs Officer was always a nice guy.

"No way! If everyone who didn’t do well got to repeat, what would be the point of having rules!" Officer Feng Li adamantly refused, casting a cold glance around the room, "Remember, Wei Long’s restatement was a one-time thing! There were reasons for it!"

Officer Feng Li spoke sternly, and the examiners immediately fell silent.

Wei Long and the others couldn’t help but look at Bai Xiaosheng with sympathy, but inside, they were secretly delighted.

"Bai Xiaosheng, you always show off, and I knew you’d eventually hit a snag, and now it’s come true!"

"Winning three rounds in a row, do you really expect to be first in the entire first phase? I think you’re done for in this round!"

"Officer Feng Li seems fed up with him, too, not showing an ounce of favoritism!"

"So strict! I must be cautious and take Bai Xiaosheng as a warning; I can’t be as foolish as him!"

Wei Long and the others had various thoughts.

"Continue, now, Jiang Yun, you are the head of the provincial industry, Sun Xiaqiu the deputy, and the rest as general managers!" After speaking, Officer Feng Li didn’t forget to throw a cold glance at Bai Xiaosheng, her eyes filled with a threatening air.

This inadvertently made everyone a bit more apprehensive.

Officer Feng Li, it turned out, showed no mercy when angry!

Everyone became even more cautious, with even the examiners waiting with bated breath.

Bai Xiaosheng saw this and couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly, "Quite the act, quite the talent for performance!"

It was also thanks to Feng Li being so "Gentle and Virtuous" that Bai Xiaosheng didn’t dare to be so presumptuous with anyone else, suggesting things off the cuff.

Thus, the more than one-hour long evaluation came to an end.

Officer Feng Li had shown everyone what it meant to be meticulous and uncompromising, instilling reverence in the hearts of both the candidates and the examiners present.

As for Bai Xiaosheng, with mistakes in three out of five rounds, even a serious response at the end couldn’t reverse his downturn.

In contrast, the others were all smiles, very satisfied with their own performance.

"Bai Xiaosheng, do you know? In this evaluation, you’re the very bottom," Officer Feng Li picked up the examiners’ scores, glanced at them, and sighed deeply, "It seems in this evaluation you’re also one of the lower middle ranks among everyone. And I thought so highly of you!"

Bai Xiaosheng looked dejected but couldn’t help inwardly laughing, "Drama queen!"
