The Big Devil in the American Comics World

Early next morning.

After sending Gwen home last night, Li Xingzhou, who had been practicing at home all night, had just taken a shower when he received a call from Banser.

"Boss, the office building has been rented. It has a whole floor of space. It was taken over by a bankrupt advertising company. The decoration is ready-made. You only need to add some office equipment and you can move in. In addition, the recruitment advertisement has been well received and has been received. I have selected some of the hundreds of resumes and plan to interview them today. Do you want to come and take a look?"

"Of course. Those are my future employees, so of course I have to personally check them."

After hanging up the phone, Li Xingzhou made a casual sandwich and drove to Manhattan, arriving in front of a skyscraper almost two hundred meters high.

Looking at the badge-like LOGO on the top of the building, Li Xingzhou accidentally discovered that it was actually the emblem of the Yashida family.

He was not surprised by this - Japanese consortiums all like to buy properties overseas, especially during the most glorious period of Japan's economy, many consortiums came to America and spent hundreds of millions of dollars to acquire American properties.

As the largest conglomerate in Japan, the Yashida family will certainly not miss this excitement and has acquired several large office buildings and luxury hotels in New York.

The five-star hotel where Mariko currently stays is controlled by the Yashida Foundation.

"It seems that I can save money on rent in the future."

Li Xingzhou muttered to himself, walked into the building, took the elevator to the twentieth floor, and stepped into the freshly baked "MASA" company headquarters.

…

The whole floor of the company's headquarters is still empty, except for Banser and his two relatively gentle-looking younger brothers, as well as a DJ girl who he pulled over to serve as a temporary receptionist.

"We need to recruit at least ten people today to prop up the shelves here in the office building."

Li Xingzhou sat on the leather boss chair in the president's office and looked through a stack of resumes.

Bancel pushed up his glasses:

"It should be no problem. The recent economic downturn has caused many companies to go bankrupt, and a large number of unemployed people have flooded into the society. There are also many college students who have become unemployed after graduation. Even if we keep the salary as low as possible, we will not worry about not being able to recruit people. After all, many unemployed people have to pay off various loan bills, and college students are burdened with high student loans, and they are desperate to find a job. "

Li Xingzhou shook his head:

"No, we are conscientious social entrepreneurs. We cannot squeeze our employees. We must give them high benefits and high salaries. We must make them regard the company as their home and serve the company wholeheartedly. Our company's employee slogan is: We. are.a.family.”

Bancel looked embarrassed:

"In this case, the company's benefits..."

Li Xingzhou smiled and said meaningfully:

"Don't forget, we are a corrections company and we run private prisons."

Banser understood instantly and nodded slightly:

"Okay, you're right. The company's regular employees should be treated like family members."

As he was talking, the landline phone on his desk rang. Li Xingzhou picked up the receiver. It was the call from the DJ girl at the front desk:

"Boss, today's applicants are all here."

"Okay, give them their number plates, and after five minutes, let them come in order for interviews."

five minutes later.

The interview begins.

A young man in a suit and leather suit, carrying a briefcase, walked into the office with an anxious look on his face. He said hello to Li Xingzhou and Bancel who were sitting behind the desk, and sat on the chair opposite the desk.

Li Xingzhou looked through the young man's information:

"Pete Watson... graduated from Brooklyn College, majoring in business, with a decent academic qualification... Okay, let's get straight to the point. Since you saw the resume submitted in the recruitment advertisement, you should know that we, MASA, are A correctional company that operates a private prison. So, how do you think a private prison can become profitable?”

As soon as the young man was stunned, he had already prepared his draft and was waiting to introduce his specialties, advantages, hobbies, etc. to the interviewer. Unexpectedly, he was caught off guard by Li Xingzhou's direct question.

After being stunned for a while, he stammered:

"Private prisons, that, I think we should have good dealings with the city government and try to get as much financial funding as possible..."

Bancel tapped the table with his pen:

"However, it is precisely because the number of criminals is increasing year by year and the financial pressure to maintain public prisons is too great that the city government has contracted the public prisons to private companies like us. Therefore, there will be financial allocations, but not too much. If you want to make a profit, you cannot expect it. Grant money. So, what other ideas do you have that could make a profit?”

"this……"

The young man babbled and talked incomprehensibly. Banser shook his head imperceptibly and smiled politely at the young man:

"Okay Mr. Peter Watson, your interview is over here. Please go back and wait for the results. Once we decide to hire you, we will call you as soon as possible."

The young man also realized that his performance was not good, so he stood up with a frustrated look on his face, said "thank you", and went out dejectedly.

Li Xingzhou picked up the pen and put a cross on the young man's resume.

Although Bancel was not satisfied with the young man, he still persuaded him:

"Boss, for young people who have just graduated and have not been severely beaten by the capital society, they may not be able to give you a satisfactory answer immediately. After all, private prisons are a relatively special industry."

Li Xingzhou smiled:

"This is New York, where elites from all over the United States and even the world are gathered here, even freshly graduated college students. I believe that we will be able to recruit satisfactory talents. As for good students like Mr. Pete Watson... I'm afraid he is really not suitable for our profession. Okay, let's call the next one."

After that, he interviewed three more people in succession, but Li Xingzhou was not satisfied until contestant No. 5 came on stage.

Looking at the sweet-looking young girl across from him who was petite, sitting upright, with a friendly smile on her lips, long dark hair and dark brown pupils, Li Xingzhou couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly and narrowed his eyes.

It's not that he was instinctively happy when he saw a beautiful woman, but Li Xingzhou's "devil radar" was activated - as a nine-generation demon, especially since he started cultivating inner demons in this life, Li Xingzhou is extremely sensitive to "devils". It can be said that You can tell at a glance whether a person is a demonic seedling.

Although the beautiful girl in front of him seemed to have a pure and sweet temperament, giving people the impression of a sweet and good girl, Li Xingzhou smelled an extremely cold, indifferent and cruel aura from her.

This is a natural-born witch. If placed in a demon sect, based on her character alone, she can directly become a good candidate for a "holy girl".

Even the flawless, dignified, cute and charming smile on her face, Li Xingzhou was certain that she had practiced it thousands of times in front of the mirror.

After examining the beautiful and charming girl for a while, Li Xingzhou lowered his head and glanced at her resume again:

Emma Grossman graduated from Imperial University. At the age of only 22, she had already obtained a double master's degree in business and law from Imperial University - well, she was not only a genius academic master, but also Li Xingzhou's senior.

The family situation is that of an orphan, without an adoptive family - a beautiful, strong and tragic character?

Li Xingzhou read his resume at a glance, smiled slightly at Emma Grossman, his pupils flickered, and asked in a low, somewhat erratic voice:

"Federal law stipulates that prisoners also have human rights, so when prisons organize prisoner labor, they must also pay prisoners in accordance with the local minimum wage standards. What do you think of this provision?"
