I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

Alin, who was sitting there in the meeting, couldn't stop laughing in his heart.

This kid obviously just wanted to gain benefits, but he made himself sound wronged.

The meeting lasted until the afternoon. After the IDP people left, Yu Hong drank the coffee in her cup and said, "It's really difficult to do education overseas. I don't know how you fought out the monopoly of those foreigners."

After saying that, he looked at Matthew again, his eyes as if he was looking at a beautiful woman, staring at him so hard that he felt uncomfortable all over.

"Mr. Yu...Mr. Yu, why are you looking at me like that?" Matthew rubbed his hands.

"Don't get me wrong, I don't have any special hobbies. Xin Fangfang is facing a big problem right now, and that is the lack of elite teachers. Of course, I'm not talking about those who can only teach, but teachers who can stand on their own," Yu Hong explained.

"Mr. Yu, you are not trying to poach people from us, are you? Matthew will not return to China." Alin and Yu Hong were also familiar with each other. He walked over and poked the other with his arm.

"How could that be? I just want Matthew to help me find some talent in this area, or train some for Xin Fangfang. You know, elite teachers in our place have very high annual salaries, and the worst ones can earn hundreds of thousands."

"That's worth considering." Alin nodded.

"Do you think there is any potential for high-end education in China?" Yu Hong sat on a chair, playing with an empty paper cup in her hand.

"High-end education?" The three were stunned when they heard this.

But the most surprising thing was Matthew.

He seemed to have said this to someone...

After dinner, at the parking lot entrance.

Chen Xi lit a cigarette and looked at Matthew: "What happened just now? You seemed to be thinking about something. You don't really want to work for Yu Hong, do you?"

"How could that be? I just feel that what he just said is somewhat consistent with my ideas." Matthew shook his head.

"What's the big deal? He's a big shot in the education field, so naturally he has higher standards. But you're quite famous. He's in China, and you're abroad, and they all know you."

"He just said he heard about me from someone else."

"There are so many people in the Overseas Returnees Association, and some of them have taken your class. This shows that others really appreciate your lectures!"

"Maybe..." Matthew frowned and touched his chin.

"Chen Xi, you said you have made so much money now, which direction do you plan to develop in the future?"

"A lot of money? That's just the beginning. I can't even do a thing with this little money."

"You think this much money is not enough?"

"Alas, there are many things I want to do, and they all require money, which is far from enough..." Chen Xi shook his head.

The money I earn now is not even enough to cover the first investment in my previous life’s project!
"Hey, I'm going to the United States for a meeting tomorrow." Alin, who had seen Yu Hong off, came over.

"What are you going for? To Great Yingwei's place?" Chen Xi handed the other person a cigarette.

"Well, Huang Feihong said that he wants to raise the price of graphics cards. The pricing needs the consent of the major shareholders. What do you think I should do? Will raising the price allow AMD to seize the market?"

Hearing this, Chen Xi fell into deep thought.

In the past, the price increase of Yingda graphics cards should have started in 2013.

From 2010 to 2012, the launch price of Intel's flagship graphics cards such as GeForce GTX 580 and GeForce GTX 680 remained at 499 beautiful coins, and the price was relatively stable.

In 2013, the price of GeForce GTX 780 exceeded 499 Nifty coins for the first time, reaching 649. Since then, the price of graphics cards has gradually increased.

Now Huang Feihong suddenly wants to raise the price. What is he doing?
Currently, AMD's high-end graphics card is the AMD Radeon HD 5970, which costs around $650 to $700.

The mid-range ones are AMD Radeon HD 5850 and Radeon HD 5830, which cost around $400 to $500.

"I don't understand. You decide for yourself." Chen Xi was a little confused.

"Okay, I'll see what he says then." Alin didn't dwell on this topic for too long.

"By the way, how is the situation at Huayuan Group?"

"What else can they do? Of course they were screwed, and became victims of the trade war negotiations. However, Australia still retained some shares for them, which means they became minority shareholders."

"Haha." Chen Xi was not surprised to hear the news, he just smiled.

After returning home, Chen Xi couldn't wait to pick up the phone and call Wang Qiansui.

"Hey, was the current financial turmoil in Australia caused by Jim Rogers?"

"What are you talking about? I don't understand." The other end of the phone was filled with the noisy sound of the game and Wang Qiansui's confused response.

"If it wasn't him, who else could have done it?"

"How would I know? He is still in China! I don't have the time to care about things happening abroad. Let me tell you, after his operation this time, Yongtai Technology has skyrocketed. I used the investment money you gave me to buy stocks, hehe. Now it has increased several times. I estimate that it will increase to a hundred yuan." Wang Qiansui's excited voice came from the microphone.

"Come on, let's quit while we're ahead." Chen Xi recalled the stock price of Yongtai Technology. He remembered that the highest it rose was just over 70.

"I know, I've also looked at a few stocks!"

Wang Qiansui mentioned several stocks in a row, all of which were monster stocks in his previous life.

Chen Xi was too lazy to care about these things. Anyway, Wang Qiansui made a lot of money by speculating in stocks and futures in his previous life, so he just left it to him.

"Please help me buy something."

"what?"

"Mine!"

"What? Where do I get the money?" After hearing this, Wang Qiansui jumped up from the sofa.

"Go find Jim Rogers, and we'll buy it together." Chen Xi grinned.

"Where is the mine?"

"Southeast Asia!"

"????"

After hearing this, Wang Qiansui was completely dumbfounded.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xi pondered again. If it wasn't Jim Rogers, then who could it be? The purpose of buying the mine was not to mine and make money now, but to pave the way for the project in the previous life.

I am about to graduate, so naturally I have to go back to my country to make up for the regrets of my previous life and do something big.

Since Chen Xi chose some difficult courses in his Bachelor's program as Master's courses, his academic progress was faster than that of ordinary people.

The end of this semester means he will graduate.

Saori and Kim Nana have already graduated and are waiting for the graduation ceremony held by the school.

I guess many international students have never taken the course we are taking today.

This is a new and more practical course. Different universities give it different names, but it is generally called Career Development and Job Search Skills.

These courses are designed to help students understand the job market, develop career plans, improve job search skills, and provide students with practical opportunities and resources to help them successfully find their ideal jobs.

Because people's education level is getting higher and higher, and the unemployment rate is also high, so the university has specially opened this course, so that students will not become homeless after graduation.

Don't underestimate the homeless people in Australia. Many of them have a high level of education.

It is not easy for fresh graduates to find a high-paying job in a formal company in Australia, especially for Asians.

The current application process in China is actually quite simple. First, they will look at your academic qualifications and then ask a few small questions, such as expected salary and benefits.

In Australia, letters of introduction are very important, followed by interviews.

The current interview process is similar to the HR interview questions in the later period of the previous life. Anyway, the domestic process is also copying the current foreign model.

Most of the time, HR uses some questions to test the job applicant's industry experience, psychology, and ability to deal with special situations.

"Now let's talk about some of the most commonly asked questions in the Australian workplace: What is your long-term objective? Let's think about how to answer them." This is a new course and the teacher has no previous teaching experience. He is completely feeling his way forward, so the class is rather casual.

Of course, exams for new courses are generally easier to pass, so naturally there are many international students who sign up for this course.

"Isn't that easy? Of course I should answer the boss in a way that he likes to hear, such as I will remain loyal to my boss as long as the company goes bankrupt, and I should strive for promotion to share more difficulties with my boss." Li Yuqing leaned back in her chair and answered casually.

"Hahaha, Li Yuqing, when will you bow your head and flatter the boss? I remember you were extremely arrogant." Shi Tao covered his stomach and laughed wildly.

"What's so funny? My boss pays me, so naturally I have to say something nice to him. Of course, if I'm not satisfied with the money he pays me, I will scold him." Li Yuqing rolled her eyes at Shi Tao.

"Your answer is not okay. HR wants to know whether the job applicant has a clear career plan and whether this plan matches the company's future development. It is recommended to answer like this. You can briefly explain how you will achieve a career-related goal in the next five years, and try to relate it to the job position. For example: "In the next five years, I hope to become an expert in this field, and use my expertise in your company to contribute to the company's development..." The teacher looked at Li Yuqing and shook his head.

"Are you kidding me?" Li Yuqing felt that it was completely different from what she had thought.

"What should you do when you encounter something you can't handle or a crisis?" The teacher looked at Li Yuqing and asked again. Now it was almost like a simulated job search.

"Can't handle it? The boss doesn't like to hear the words 'can't handle it'. In their opinion, if you can't handle it, that means you're not capable. So in order not to be fired, you have to handle it even if you can't handle it!" Li Yuqing's answer was pretty good this time.

But this is just what other international students think.

The teacher kept shaking his head and said, "This is the way your country handles things. I should answer that when I encounter a problem or crisis that I cannot handle alone, my first reaction is to stay calm, analyze the problem as detailed as possible, and try to find possible solutions.

If the problem is beyond my ability, I will immediately communicate with my direct superior or other professionals in the team to seek their advice and help. If the situation is urgent and requires higher-level decision-making or resources, I will not hesitate to report it to the company's senior management to ensure that the problem is handled promptly and appropriately.

Timely reporting is not only a manifestation of responsibility to the company, but also the key to teamwork and efficient problem solving. In the Australian company, understanding and communication are very important, so don’t delay reporting because of the fear of possible accountability. Instead, face the problem proactively, seek solutions, and work with team members to ensure that the interests of the company are protected to the greatest extent possible…”

"Hahaha, if this happened to us, you would be the scapegoat and fired the next day because everyone is passing the buck!" Li Yuqing almost laughed to tears after hearing this.

After listening to Li Yuqing, other Chinese students also felt that what she said made sense, but this class was about Australian things, so naturally they had to follow Australian standards.

The teacher felt that he couldn’t communicate with this girl, so he said, “How about this, let’s ask some interesting questions that come up in the workplace. If you could talk to your future self for one minute, what would you say?”

"Of course, let her tell me what she can do to make a fortune in the future." Li Yuqing blurted out without thinking.

Chen Xi patted his forehead, looking defeated.

He thought about it and realized that this is how most people think.

However, this is a job application, and the questions asked by the other party are definitely intentional. They just want to use the test to see what kind of person the job applicant is.

In fact, some job seekers, when faced with such a situation, will deliberately give answers that are inconsistent with their inner thoughts in order to satisfy the examiner.

However, this approach often backfires. But Li Yuqing's answer is too...

The teacher didn't say anything after listening. He was almost immune to Li Yuqing's answer, so he asked again: "Suppose you are driving a car and suddenly find that the brakes fail, and there is a cliff not far ahead. At this time, you have a bottle of whiskey, a dog and a friend in your car. Which one would you throw out first?"

"Throw the wine!" Li Yuqing answered in one second.

Her first thought was that throwing a friend would definitely be considered murder, and throwing a dog would be accused of not caring about animals.

This time Shi Tao next to him couldn't help laughing and said, "Haha, the car is about to fall off the cliff, what's the point of throwing a bottle of wine! Shouldn't you jump out of the car or change direction? This is a car, not a plane that needs to lose weight! Why don't you throw yourself out? Hahaha."

Li Yuqing blushed immediately after being reminded by Shi Tao.

This question is actually a trap question that tests the job applicant's emergency response ability and logical thinking.

The correct answer is: don't throw anything, but find a way to avoid danger as quickly as possible, such as finding a roadside obstacle to slow down or using the vehicle's own friction to stop.

"During an interview, one of the most common questions is what your expected salary is. How should you answer this question?" The teacher looked at the girl in front of him with a smile.

"Um...this..." Li Yuqing had just made a fool of herself. After listening this time, she did not give a direct answer, but started thinking.

This question often makes job seekers feel embarrassed. If they say too low, they may appear to be unconfident or underestimate their own value. If they say too high, the HR may think that the job seeker is too greedy or does not meet the market price.

"Well, I would say lower. Let's make sure I get the job first." Li Yuqing thought for a moment and replied.

"If the salary the company offers you is much lower than your expectations, will you still accept the position?" the teacher asked again.

This question is actually HR trying to understand the job applicant's bottom line for salary and how much they desire the position.

"Of course not, I will go to other companies to have a look." Li Yuqing shook her head like a rattle.

After studying abroad for so many years and spending a lot of money, it is natural that I want to find a high-paying job that I am satisfied with.

"In fact, job hunting is similar to doing business, and the conversation between you and the interviewer is like a negotiation. You should work hard to make others feel that you are valuable, rather than compromise. Compromise is a choice you will make when you are faced with layoffs." The teacher sighed.

"Teacher, if you come to our country, you will definitely not be able to find a job." Li Yuqing said quietly.

"Hahaha." Shi Tao laughed again after hearing this. (End of this chapter)
