Spoil My Errant Wife

Chapter 274 

"The number of online applicants for our company's spokesperson audition has exceeded 100 thousand in three days.From the day before yesterday, Henry led the HR team to do interviews in the18 meeting rooms of various districts.However, since there are too many people, we have decided to review personal files online.1000 people will be selected for the second round."

At the morning meeting, Barbara and the other core project managers were seriously discussing the new product that was about to be launched for the first time.

The quality testing of the product and the spokesperson audition were also in full swing.

IP&G highly emphasized efficiency.

The meeting soon ended, and leaders of each department immediately assigned the latest tasks.

Barbara packed her laptop and walked out of the conference room in high heels.

She turned left and walked towards the VIP elevator.

"Director Parker, please wait a minute."

Behind her, Henry, the head of the HR Department, caught up with her in a hurry with a stack of documents.

Recently, everyone in the company was quite busy, especially the employees who participated in this project.

They worked overtime until midnight almost every day.They had no choice as they had to catch up with the New York Artificial Intelligence Exhibition at Christmas.They did not have much time left.

Babara had something urgent to do.

The elevator opened.

She turned to him and said quickly, "Henry, you can discuss the audition with the people on Mr.Shepherd's side.You don't have to report to me.I believe in your ability!"

"It's indeed related to the audition, but please look at the list first."

After Barbara was promoted to the Product Director of the Al department, she promoted Henry to her previous position.

Therefore, Henry was very loyal to her.

Barbara stopped the elevator and took the audition list, quickly browsing through it while educating Henry.

"I know a few big stars on Charles's side are not easy to communicate with, but the audition was only for marketing.You can just choose one who is obedient as the final candidate..."

However, Barbara's face darkened before she could finish speaking.She frowned, fixing her eyes on one of the names.

"Did Christina participate in the audition?"

Henry replied with complicated expressions on his face, "I've already checked.It's really her."

At first, he thought it was just a duplicate name.

However, he was shocked after he looked up the file of this person.

"Director Parker, how should I deal with it?"

Henry did not know what to do.He heard that Christina had a with their president.It seemed that they were going to divorce, but they had not divorced yet.

In other words, Christina was still nominally the proprietress of the IP&G group.

Barbara stared at the familiar name on the list, feeling weird.It seemed that she didn't know how to decide either.

"Shall we report it to the president first?" Henry asked carefully.

In fact, this audition was secondary.

The key was to choose the spokesperson that the president liked.

If the big boss's favorite candidate was eliminated, they would end up in some trouble.

Henry was so anxious that he said, "But I've also asked around.The president did not like her to show up in public in the past."

Then, should he choose Christina as the spokesperson or just weed her out?

"Go and do your work.I'll ask him myself about this."

Barbara pressed number 68 on the elevator and said coldly.

The elevator went up.

"Christina participated in this audition..."

Barbara didn't look well, clutching the list tightly.She entered the president's office after the chief secretary informed Patrick.

He had to fly to Paris in an hour, so he was busy approving the last document and preparing to leave.

"I also have an electronic contract for you to review first."

Barbara turned on her laptop and turned the screen to him.Her tone was flat, speaking about business.

Patrick was as silent as usual.He didn't even raise his head.He held the mouse and glanced at it quickly.

Soon, he stood up from his chair, pushed the computer back to her, and said, "Look for Shawn directly for the contract of this project."

Barbara was a little surprised.She asked casually in a relaxed tone, "Patrick, are you leaving this project alone?"

In fact, IP&G had been secretly developing Al-related products a few years ago, and they had reached the point of quantum supercomputers, but they had no intention of making it public before.

However, as Patrick temporarily decided to do this project, the company's employees had to hurry to finish the task in time.

They had complained a lot.

However, they all felt that their president was so wise that his temporary decision must have a very profound meaning.

"What else?"

However, it seemed that Patrick did not take the project seriously.

Babara held the list in her right hand, hesitated for half a second when seeing his cold face, and then handed over the list to him and said carelessly, "Christina also participated in this audition."

Patrick's expressions did not change.

He acted as if he didn't even bother to take a look at the list.His voice was low and emotionless.

"You don't even know how to deal with it?"

Barbara was nervous and looked at him quietly, waiting for him to speak.

At this moment, the chief secretary's voice came from the communicator, reminding him to go to the international airport.

Patrick was impatient and patted the list on the table.

"There are so many people in the HR Department.What's the use of having them?" He said coldly and strode out.

Barbara was stunned for a moment.

As he walked out of the office, she smiled.

It meant business was business.

Without Patrick's help, Christina, an eyesore, would not be able to enter their social circle.

This audition was not only based on personal ability.

In this society, relationships were always more important than ability.

"Christina, I didn't see your name in the IP&G announcement online..." ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

The audition was in full swing for a week, and everyone knew that as long as they got into the IP&G group, they would have a bright future.

Therefore, both ordinary citizens and celebrities in the entertainment circle were eager to participate.

The competition was very fierce, and the list of 1000 people that won the primary election had been announced.

Crystal asked Christina to have lunch at a western restaurant.

While waiting for the dishes, she browsed the Internet with her cell phone.

As she looked at the candidate's photo file, she complained with a dark face.

"I think the IP&G people are blind.How could these people be selected? They look so ugly..."

As she spoke, she turned to look at the woman beside her, worriedly.

She then comforted Christina, "these auditions are just for marketing.They've already decided on the candidate.Don't be too upset.You're not inferior to them at all"

Christina looked at her.

"I'm not depressed"

She didn't seem interested in the published results.

Crystal looked surprised but relieved quickly.

"You've finally figured it out.In fact, I suspect that you were weeded out in the primary election because of Barbara.This audition is bullshit..."

"I can make it."

Christina interrupted her in a very soft voice.She looked up at a figure who was rushing to the restaurant door.She said a few words calmly, "I'll leave through the back door."

Crystal was a little stunned.She once thought that Christina was very upright.Was she going to play tricks now?
