After the sales situation yesterday, everyone celebrated for a while, but today they had to grade papers and send out deliveries, and the biological cultivation base, transformed by the Galactic Post Station, was working non-stop.
Everyone was busy, unaware that the products from their own company were once again making waves on StarNet.
Unlike last time, when the heat was driven by heavy advertisement promotion, this time, the buzz was generated organically by online discussions.
The first news outlet in the galaxy, Star News Agency, had its chief editor flipping through the smart brain, reviewing the trending news.
The top stories were all entertainment news, about which female celebrity released a new show, which female star outshone another, which male star had an affair, and several gossip news articles from other entertainment outlets.
The editor-in-chief ignored them, as he knew well how much fluff was mixed into these so-called entertainment stories.
He couldn’t be bothered to get involved in such news. Their news agency also had an entertainment department, but every time big news broke, it was always genuine, high-stakes stories, never anything like this.
The list continued to scroll down, and towards the end, there were several trending topics such as “zero-pollution organisms,” “Lin’s Shop,” “Is watermelon really that delicious?” and “Magical products solve the long-standing mental disorders of intergalactic people”…
These discussion topics were all created by netizens sharing their genuine opinions, and as time passed, more people joined the conversation. The most noticeable change was that the discussion levels were rising, and the topics themselves were gradually moving up, gaining momentum at an increasingly faster pace.
The editor-in-chief realized that he had underestimated the power of the “zero-pollution organism” topic. It was gaining traction even faster than he expected.
Without hesitation, he immediately sent a communication to his deputy editor in charge of press releases.
“Drop everything else and send out the press release I had you prepare earlier. Keep an eye on the trending topics, the heat for ‘zero-pollution organisms’ is rising too quickly. We need to act now while no one else has noticed, and ignite one last fire to push it even further. We must be the ones to fuel the final push. The buzz around ‘zero-pollution organisms’ is far from over. This could be our chance to elevate our agency to the next level.”
This was the first time the deputy editor had heard the editor-in-chief speak in such a serious tone. When major news broke before, the editor-in-chief had always been calm and composed, never showing this level of urgency.
The editor-in-chief’s vision was unquestionable. Without him, their star news agency would never have reached this level.
The deputy editor immediately instructed the editorial team to send out the press release that had already been approved by the editor-in-chief. He himself continued to monitor the trending topics.
As expected, with the report from the galaxy’s leading news agency, more people joined the discussion about the topic.
Mental disorders were already a hot issue in the galaxy, and with the new coverage, it quickly rose to the top of the trending list.
By the time the editor-in-chief checked the trending list again, the top five topics were all related, with the “explosion” indicator next to them glowing bright red.
He was in a great mood. His decision was indeed the right one. His foresight had proven to be accurate, and it was also a chance to show those who thought they could compete with their agency by focusing on trivial stories just how out of their league they were.
At the biological breeding base, the team was still grading papers. Lin Huanyan was nearly exhausted, the work was grueling, monotonous, and dull.
Yet, these were all essential tasks for the future development of the breeding base.
As for the disputes on the star web, she didn’t have time to pay attention. All she knew was that her family’s store selling zero-pollution organisms was becoming very popular in the galaxy.
By evening, the team had finally finished grading all the papers and immediately sent the results to the governments of various planets to arrange for the next round of interviews.
On Poyang Star, people were eagerly awaiting the results after completing the exam.
Those who had been screened out in the first round were already looking for other jobs. They couldn’t afford to waste more time on this matter; after all, they had to make a living.
Meanwhile, those who hadn’t been eliminated were still waiting, hoping for a good result.
Recently, Po Li had nothing to do, so he often visited his neighbor, Gan Xia, to chat.
“Lin’s Shop has really gained popularity these days on the star web hot topics. It’s the store that sells the shrimp. Almost everyone knows about it now, so it won’t be easy to buy anything from them in the future.”
“The things from Lin’s Shop are really good. I was able to do well thanks to their products.”
“True, but you need a way to access information. That’s why I’ve been suggesting that once you earn some money, you should sign up for a star web account. It’s way better than our local Poyang Star web.”
“I know, I know. You’re right, but I’ll wait until I earn enough. Right now, I still owe Little Gan Lin money.”
“Don’t worry, your exam results were really good. You’re definitely going to make it!”
【Old Gan, a message! Old Gan, a message!】
【Beep, beep】
Both their personal devices vibrated at the same time.
The two men exchanged glances, their eyes filled with excitement. They had passed the written exam!
Gan Xia immediately contacted his wife and received some good news—she had also made it to the interview stage.
The interview would take place in the government hall, with those who passed the written exam waiting in line to enter one by one.
Since the interview would be conducted in a full-hologram format via the star web, it would involve Lin Huanyan from the biological breeding base, along with interns, researchers, transport managers, and officials from the imperial government.
Most of the planets participating in this recruitment were poor and lacked the infrastructure for full-hologram access, so local governments had to provide suitable locations for interviews.
At that moment, Po Li was in line for the interview, feeling nervous and letting his mind wander.
The armed personnel ahead were government officials, and the staff guiding the queue were also from the government.
It seemed that the information Gan Xia received was indeed accurate—the company had close ties with the imperial government.
This makes people feel more at ease. This company must be a strong one, and they won’t have to worry about instability once they start working here.
He continued to daydream, and strangely, his mood calmed down.
The people in front of him went in and came out one after another—some emerged smiling, some with frowns, and some with blank expressions. It was clear that this interview wasn’t easy.
But Po Li had already set his mind. He had done his best, reviewing the knowledge related to the test questions after returning home. Now, he just needed to perform well.
The person behind him, Gan Xia, wasn’t worried at all. He was an optimist, carefree, and kept comforting his wife.
Soon, it was their turn. The person ahead of them was a young guy who walked in happily but came out with a downcast face.
Seeing this made Po Li’s heart tighten for a moment. His previously calm nerves became anxious again.
“Next.”
The government staff guiding the process called out his name.
Po Li took a deep breath and walked toward the designated area.
Once inside the holographic chamber, he calmed down and let his thoughts settle.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a long corridor where a round robot was speaking to him.
“Applicant, please follow me.”
The robot led him to a door at the end of the hallway.
“Next, please enter the room for your interview.”
Po Li opened the door and saw seven interviewers sitting inside. There were three women and four men, with a particularly beautiful woman sitting in the center, likely the main interviewer.
The round-faced woman at the far end spoke first.
“Please introduce yourself.”
Perli stood up straight and immediately began his introduction.
“My name is Po Li, male, 40 years old, from the 3rd Water District of Poyang Star, number xxx. I specialize in…”
The woman in the center, Lin Huanyan, was discussing with the human resources manager, An Jie, who was hired from a talent company.
“Po Li, is he the one with the highest score on the written test?”
An Jie, a refined middle-aged man with a reputation for being highly skilled in the industry, was known for not being easily swayed by salary offers.
It was Lin Huanyan who personally went to recruit him, presenting the salary, benefits, and company prospects. In the end, he was moved by the delicious watermelon.
Hearing Lin Huanyan’s question, An Jie immediately moved his tablet towards her, showing Perli’s test paper.
“Yes, that’s him. He has worked as a horticulturist for many years, knows a lot about plants, and is the first batch of users for our products related to animals. His answers on the test were excellent. He’s a real talent.”
“Got it,” Lin Huanyan replied.
Po Li finished his introduction and waited for the interviewers to ask questions.
“I noticed in your introduction that you mentioned being one of the first users of Lin’s shop’s brine shrimp product. Can you share your thoughts on this shop?”
Po Li didn’t expect this question, and after a brief pause, he answered honestly.
“I have indeed personally used this product. At the time, I was physically exhausted due to overwork, and my mental health was also deteriorating. I thought I was going to die. But my son accidentally found Lin’s shop’s brine shrimp and said it could cure my mental illness. I didn’t believe him at first—how could such a young child find those things? But in the end, I was wrong. It really cured my condition…”
