Chapter 7 Siblings
After returning home, Zhou Haoran tried on new clothes.

He is no stranger to wearing suits.

But now my body, at only eighteen years old, is thin and a little frail.

Even though he chose a slim fit, it still felt a little loose and baggy when he wore it.

In a job interview, image is the first step.

He thought it would be better to put some padding on his shoulders to make his posture appear more upright.

At this time, a clear female voice came from the door.

"Haoran, are you home?"

"exist."

Zhou Haoran was slightly stunned.

This voice was all too familiar to him.

It’s Qiao Suiqing!

Why is she here?

I walked over and opened the door curtain, and sure enough, I saw the familiar beautiful face in my memory.

With big eyes, a high nose bridge, and a slender and upright figure, even though she was wearing very simple home shorts, her outstanding temperament still seemed to be shining in this hot summer evening.

"I see you're back."

Qiao Suiqing smiled and his eyes blinked as if they could speak.

Zhou Haoran asked, "Sister Suiqing, are you having a day off today?"

"Well, it's Sunday, so I have a short break." Qiao Suiqing looked up and down at his suit, his eyes shining. "Is this a new suit you bought?"

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "Yeah, I'm going to the TV station for an interview tomorrow and I'm planning to wear it."

Qiao Suiqing pursed his lips and said, "What a good buy! So cool."

"I can't hold up my shoulders. I'm trying to figure out what to do."

Zhou Haoran welcomed her in and moved a chair for her.

Qiao Suiqing looked at him with interest and chuckled, "It's the same with me at the station. Sometimes I need to wear a suit when hosting a show, but I can't support it because my shoulders are too narrow."

Zhou Haoran asked: "What should we do then?"

Qiao Suiqing suggested, "Let's make a shoulder pad. When Auntie comes home tonight, ask her to sew one for you using a shoe insole. Put it on your shoulder and it will work."

Zhou Haoran thought it made sense, "It seems this is the only way."

Qiao Suiqing said softly, "If you want a suit that fits you well, it's best to have it custom-made."

Zhou Haoran said, "This suit cost me 650 yuan. I'll just make do with it for now. I'll buy a better one when I make more money later."

Speaking of making money, Qiao Suiqing hesitated a little and whispered, "Haoran, I have to tell you the truth."

"Okay!"

"You want to get into the station? That's impossible. Even if you apply for an interview, it's just a formality at best. There are so many eyes on TV stations, it's hard for outsiders to get a chance."

"It's okay, I'll try."

Zhou Haoran disagreed.

Although he has never worked in a TV station, he understands the nature of the sales position.

For other positions, internal appointments may indeed be the main method.

Sales positions are different.

This is a revenue-generating department, and competence trumps all else.

If you can't get the order, everything else is useless.

This is not a place where those with connections can just sit there and do nothing.

Qiao Suiqing didn't seem to understand and said awkwardly, "Many university students from prestigious universities can't compete with junior college students simply because they don't have connections. You... you just graduated from high school, you can't even get an internship."

Zhou Haoran didn't argue with her, "Sister Suiqing, it's not important whether I can get into the station or not. I just want to take part in the interview and get a feel for the process."

Qiao Suiqing sighed softly and whispered, "Don't be fooled by my status as a program host. I'm actually a nobody in the station and have no say at all. I don't know anyone in the HR and sales departments, so I don't even know who to contact if I need to make arrangements."

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "Sister, don't worry. We don't need to arrange anything. Let's just go through the normal application process."

"Did my mother say something inappropriate to you..."

"Sis, we are elders, so we should just respect them."

"Haoran, I'm really surprised to see you this time."

Qiao Suiqing felt it clearly.

I used to think this guy was a bit of a taciturn person, but this time, I saw that he was actually quite talkative. Especially since he even managed to get an interview with the station, which was even more remarkable.

Zhou Haoran comforted her instead, "Sister Suiqing, Auntie is also concerned about you. Some things... well, there may be some cognitive gaps between us and our elders."

Qiao Suiqing covered her mouth and teased, "Haoran, who did you learn that from? Stop pretending to be mature in front of me." Zhou Haoran scratched his head, "That bastard Dongfang is spreading rumors. Don't mind what people in the alley say."

"You little brats, don't I know that?" Qiao Suiqing rolled his eyes at him, but didn't blame him. He spoke softly, "We grew up together. You're all my brothers."

Or maybe he is the host, he speaks very well.

Rumors are not important, she characterized their relationship as "sister and brother".

Zhou Haoran was pleased with what he had done, thinking this was the best approach. "Are you going back to work tomorrow?"

"Ah."

"Shall we go together then?"

"Okay." Qiao Suiqing really acted like an older sister. "I suggest you don't get your hopes up too much for tomorrow's interview. However, I can treat you to a meal in the TV station cafeteria."

"it is good."

Zhou Haoran felt that he got along well with her.

……

Today, it's time for the interview.

Zhou Haoran got up early, washed his face and hair, and tidied himself up.

Pack your suit, shirt, belt, and shoes.

It's so hot and humid in this summer.

I have to wear a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, and then find a chance to change into formal clothes when I get to the TV station.

Qiao Suiqing went with him to the city on a minibus.

The two chatted along the way.

Zhou Haoran spoke eloquently, which really surprised Qiao Suiqing.

I didn't expect that the little kid in the alley would have such mature insights.

No wonder everyone in the alley says that the Zhou family kid has matured in the past few months.

It really is!
When I got to the station, the security guards were very strict in their inspection.

Without a pass, reporting and registration, you will not be allowed in.

Fortunately, Zhou Haoran's name was on the interview registration list, so he was allowed to go to the reception room on the first floor.

Qiao Suiqing didn't abandon him.

Took him to the bathroom.

Five minutes later, Zhou Haoran changed into formal attire and appeared in a dignified manner.

The straight blue-black suit, the white shirt underneath, and the black leather shoes are all shining, and with the elegant and light smile on his face, he really has the temperament of a handsome man.

But this is a TV station.

What is most abundant is handsome men and beautiful women.

Qiao Suiqing had seen too many high-quality men, and chuckled, "Then just go to the reception room and wait as arranged. I'll help you check and see what the process is."

"No, go to work."

Zhou Haoran felt it was unnecessary.

Qiao Suiqing felt that this was what he should do, and whispered, "I'll go and ask about the situation, so you won't be so flustered when the time comes. But don't get your hopes up. As I said, it's impossible to pass the test. The purpose is to train."

Zhou Haoran followed the station's rules and went to the reception room to wait.

Those who come here are interviewees.

Looking around, there were at least fifty or sixty people.

It's a bit noisy.

As soon as Zhou Haoran appeared, everything became quiet, with dozens of eyes staring at him.

Because he doesn't look like a job applicant at all.

He is dressed in real style!
Like the leader of the station!

Looking at other people, many of them were wearing short-sleeved shirts and shorts, and those who were more formal were wearing jackets and long pants.

There were some people wearing suits, but their suits... all looked cheap.

Zhou Haoran bought this suit for 650 yuan. It is from Shanshan Clothing, the best suit brand in China, which is inherited from the famous Hongbang tailors.

The suits that other people are wearing probably only cost 50 yuan.

It was baggy, slovenly, and totally ill-fitting.

Just looking at this workplace image, Zhou Haoran can kill everyone in seconds.
