Chapter 52 1/2

[Due to the host’s own will, from now on, feedback and subsequent task funds, in addition to the sponsored person’s goodwill and the sponsored person’s career value, will be added as a judgment condition.]

[Ding! [Detected the host’s career goal, developing Starlight Entertainment to the world’s top level; current career progress: 7%]

Sheng Quan: Ah, has it already reached 7%? [I thought it was at most 5%.]

This sudden system upgrade didn’t surprise her much.

To be precise, she had been waiting for the system rules to change for a long time.

It’s not hard to guess that whether it’s lifespan or monthly tasks, these rules are obviously designed to make hosts who are bound by the system sponsor people regularly, just like clocking in for work.

But it has to be said that such restrictions, while effectively encouraging hosts to complete monthly tasks, also limit their ability to fully unleash their potential.

Just talking about “Cultivator,” the filming process can’t be accelerated. To produce a good movie, it takes at least half a year or more.

And wanting to achieve good results requires constantly putting in funds. During the filming of “Cultivator,” Sheng Quan needed to earn lifespan values every month in small amounts.

But this is not reasonable because the system is made up of goodwill. Obviously, its goal has always been to “sponsor people with excellent character and talent” rather than “finding ways to restrict the host.”

Diversifying small investments is not in line with the original intention of goodwill.

Unless, at the beginning, this is a screening mechanism,

But after speculating for so long, she never thought about the system score.

Sheng Quan was directly amused: [006] Are you sure you won’t open the back door for me when giving me a score? ]

006 replied seriously: [The system is a comprehensive scoring system, ensuring fairness without any backdoor behavior! ]

But I’m curious: what is the fate line? These three words appeared for the first time, right? Sheng Quan nodded to Gu Zhao, holding coffee, and entered the elevator.

Other employees waiting for the elevator saw Sheng Quan. There was no apparent change in their expressions. As soon as she entered, several people immediately started discussing, with a bit of surprise:

“Is that Sheng Quan?”

“Yes, I’ve seen her a few times. Is she back in the country? The news didn’t say.”

“Who is Sheng Quan? Are you kidding me? You don’t know who Sheng Quan is? Haven’t you seen the news in this period? She owns this building. The top Starlight Entertainment is hers. Not a star, but more famous than many stars!”

Sheng Quan didn’t know that someone was discussing her. She was standing in the dedicated elevator of Starlight Entertainment, continuing to ask:

It’s been a long time since I signed with Jin Jiu. Why is it considered changing the fate line now? ]

[I don’t know, oh.] 006 was extremely frank: [I just received a prompt that Jin Jiu’s fate line has changed.]

But 006 is very happy! The host doesn’t have to worry about its lifespan in the future! ]

It simulated the sound of fireworks in her mind with great joy.

[Peng! Peng! Congratulations to the host! You can show your talents in the future! ]

Sheng Quan could indeed show her talents.

But before that, Sheng Quan made a call to her mentor:

“Mentor, the first batch of trainees should have been trained, right? Can you arrange for some people to come to my place for work?”

“I told you not to call me a mentor. Call me Advisor Qin.”

At the training base, Qin Guofu was dressed in sportswear with sweat on his forehead, but compared to when he first arrived in the Magic Capital, his spirit had completely changed.

He also dyed his white hair back to black, making him look almost twenty years younger. At this moment, holding his phone and speaking to it, he appeared quite energetic.

“I was just thinking about applying for them to start working officially. These young brats eat well and drink well every day. They’ve become quite plump and strong. They’ve been reporting to me that they want to start working as soon as possible.”

After saying that, he paused, and his eyebrows slightly furrowed.

“But why do you suddenly need people over there? Did you encounter any trouble? I saw the news saying you bought some kind of estate abroad. Did someone target you because of this?”

“What is Jiang Lu doing? He dares to boast about being a master of martial arts. I’ll have to have a talk with him later.”

Sheng Quan smiled and glanced at Jiang Lu, who was sitting in front of her, reading a book. When he heard his name, he raised his head and looked over.

“Advisor Qin, I run an outsourcing business.”

“Also, Jiang Ge never bragged about himself. It’s always you who boast about him being a master of martial arts, unparalleled in the past and without successors.”

Qin Guofu: “Ahem, that’s not important. How many people do you need around you?”

“Arrange as many as you can. I believe they can already replace some positions around me. Don’t worry; no one is targeting me. It’s just that I might be going to more places in the future.”

She casually chatted, saying, “My dream is to become the boss of a world-class company. For this level, there should be many people who want to kidnap me, right?”

Qin Guofu exclaimed.

In fact, despite Sheng Quan gaining fame both domestically and internationally, they all knew that she had not yet reached the level of being considered world-class. The older someone is, the clearer they are about how difficult it is, to the point of being practically unattainable.

But this elderly man, over sixty, smiled kindly, like every kind elder to a younger one:

“Then I’ll have to train them more. These young brats will be protecting the boss of a world-class company in the future.”

After hanging up the phone, Qin Guofu, who had just been laughing, turned back, immediately adopting a serious and stern expression, becoming the stern Advisor Qin.

After announcing to the trainees that they would be selecting a group of people to protect the company’s biggest boss, Sheng Quan, these trainees with various skin tones from daily training were almost instantly excited.

“That’s great!!!”

“We’re protecting General Sheng, right?”

“Sister Yuna was transferred to work with Director Sheng before! The treatment is special. Last time we met, she said she was saving money to buy a house!”

The loyalty of the trainees to the company and Sheng Quan was undoubtedly strong, coming from Sheng Quan’s substantial investment in their training and the promising future she showed them.

—Of course, also from the deliberate cultivation of the advisors.

The first batch of trainees mainly came from recommendations by Jiang Lu and Qin Guofu, coming from retired military personnel of various ages, some becoming advisors and some becoming trainees.

From the second batch onward, recommendations came from various military leaders in the army. In the military, a person’s character, personality, and ability to handle things are easy to discern, making it the first round of screening.

Then came the second and third rounds, and through these rounds of selection, the trainees could begin various rigorous but well-paying trainings.

And this high pay was just the beginning; once they started working, they would receive double, triple, or even more.

Although they hadn’t officially started working yet, once they entered the security industry, they couldn’t help but inquire about other security companies. They found that in the entire Magic City, it seemed that their company, Starlight Security, had the highest treatment. Moreover, they were investing the most in training their various skills.

A trainee who regretted being eliminated in the second round lamented in the group:

“After I was eliminated, I found out how good Starlight’s treatment is. The old squad leader almost scolded me to death. He finally helped me find such a good job opportunity, and I didn’t seize it.”

“I’ve quit drinking now. Can you guys ask the advisor if he can give me another chance? This time I will work hard. I will really work hard.”

This regretful trainee didn’t manage to return to the company. Even if other advisors were soft-hearted, Qin Guofu, the chief advisor, still firmly refused.

Before selecting the trainees to “work for Director Sheng,” he openly told the trainees the reason he wouldn’t give the other side a chance:

“Starlight Security offers a full set of training courses. Even if someone with a slightly robust physique comes here for half a year of training, they can perform normal security work. However, since the founding of this company, Director Sheng has made it clear that she only recruits retired military personnel.”

Even though he was old, the retired military officer’s eyes remained as sharp as eagle eyes as he scanned the crowd below:

“Why? Because she knows that it’s difficult for us military personnel to find jobs after retirement. She is not a retired military personnel, but she respects us and values us. So, she reserves this opportunity, which could be open to the public, only for us. Do you know what this company represents? It represents Starlight Security! She only gives this green channel to us retired military personnel.”

The trainees listened quietly, acknowledging it in their hearts.

Qin Guofu directly revealed:

“This green channel is based on Director Sheng’s high regard for military personnel. You are the first to enjoy this channel. If you don’t do well, if you don’t maintain the honor of military personnel, it will block the way for those who come later!”
