Chapter 31: Dolphin Bubble Fun Festival
"This Ms. Liu Qinglu is the assistant we most recommend for you."
Lily smiled and said, "She previously worked at Yuemei Hotel, which ranks in the top ten in Nanjing. Her work capabilities are outstanding. During her tenure, Yuemei Hotel not only passed the Coconut Umbrella Hotel Industry Association's membership test, becoming a certified five-star hotel but also started competing for the Platinum Five-Star Hotel title."
Wow!
Is she really that strong?
Chen Jianhai looked at Lily, astonished.
"Then why did she leave?"
A talent like that, even with a high salary, shouldn't be let go. There's no reason to push her out.
Lily smiled, "Officially, it was due to differences in business philosophy, so they terminated the contract. However, Yuemei Hotel is a family business, you know..."
Lily gave Chen Jianhai a meaningful smile.
Chen Jianhai suddenly understood,
family businesses are notoriously exclusive, a well-known fact.
Even the most talented individuals can only sigh and curse inwardly when facing a family business.
"Alright!"
"She's the one."
Chen Jianhai closed the folder decisively, making the decision.
"Uh..."
"Mr. Chen, we still need to consult her opinion."
Lily said somewhat apologetically.
Chen Jianhai was a bit shocked: "What do you mean? I'm hiring, she applied, and you still need to ask for her opinion?"
Lily nodded, "Our website is just a talent demand center, providing a platform for both parties. The final choice is still up to the individuals."
"After all, the talents applying through our site are top-tier elites. It's normal for elites to have the right to choose."
"Are you saying I might be rejected by her?" Chen Jianhai asked.
Lily nodded tactfully.
"Then why are you recommending her to me!"
Chen Jianhai was a bit frustrated. "I'm here to choose employees, not to be chosen by employees!"
Lily calmly replied, "Mr. Chen, elite talents and companies are a two-way selection. You have the strength to choose them, and they naturally have the right to choose where to work."
"Moreover, if you really wanted to choose those you could decide on yourself, you wouldn't need to use our site."
"Don't you think so?"
Damn!
Alright.
Chen Jianhai felt a bit stifled.
He admitted Lily was right, but it didn't make him feel any less frustrated.
However, given her qualifications, it was worth the wait.
...
Back at the hotel,
Chen Jianhai took a shower and lay on the bed, turning on his phone.
In the live stream,
Xu Bo was leading the kitchen team in a heated battle, with flames and flashing knives, looking quite lively.
The number of viewers had risen to over 800,
a significant improvement from the dismal numbers in the morning.
Just as Chen Jianhai was about to take another shower and then head to the beach for some skewers,
the system's voice suddenly rang in his mind:
"Ding."
"Limited-time system task activated."
"Task requirement: Host a Dolphin Bubble Fun Festival at the hotel within seven days."
"Task description: Curiosity, joy, and exploration are always the innate talents and passions of children. Vacation is not just a privilege for adults.
Colorful bubbles, soft cotton slingshots, and exciting little slides are enough to fill children's memories with joy.
Exclusive pirate ship buffets, special seafood mini cakes, Ocean Star limited drinks...
All these activities and special foods can be supplied indefinitely!
What are you waiting for?!
Let's start a colorful and happy summer~"
"Task reward: After the festival, the host will receive points to exchange for a small dolphin fountain, a jellyfish bubble pool, and a shark slide based on the event's points."
"Host, please accept the task within 30 seconds. If the time limit is exceeded, it will be automatically deemed as a rejection of the task."
"Note: The limited event is only open for the specified time. Once you choose to reject it, you will not be able to purchase related products. Limited prizes cannot be exchanged either, so please choose carefully."
"Agree! I accept!!"
Although he wasn't entirely sure what this was about, seeing the task rewards, Chen Jianhai decisively chose to accept.
"Ding!"
"The system detects that the host has accepted the limited event. The event series limited item panel has been activated."
"All items in the event store can be purchased with points."
"Please select the items you wish to purchase. After confirming payment, the system will modify the hotel accordingly."
As soon as the system's voice ended, a panel popped up in Chen Jianhai's mind with a "boom."
The panel resembled a game item purchase screen,
with three pages: Food, Decorations, and Props.
Each page had about twenty gray icons,
with the corresponding prices displayed below each icon.
"So this is the store panel, and I can buy things with points?"
Chen Jianhai studied the panel carefully.
He was secretly amazed,
the items in this store were quite expensive!
Limited special dolphin mini cake recipe: 30 points, Ocean Star limited drink recipe: 30 points, Starfish QQ jelly recipe: 20 points...
These were still manageable.
Pirate ship buffet table, soft slingshot moving target, Mr. Octopus drink machine, hotel star ceiling lights, rainbow sky wallpaper, each costing over a hundred points.
It was outrageous!
Just as Chen Jianhai was feeling frustrated about the prices, he noticed the coin icon in the bottom right corner of the panel.
Next to the coin icon was a string of small numbers.
The hotel had 3429 points!
Chen Jianhai was instantly shocked.
He hadn't checked the system panel for a few days, and the points had grown so much!
With so many points, he could buy most of the items in the event store!
So what was he waiting for?!
Buy it all!
Chen Jianhai was thrilled.
Recipes are cheap, buy them all!!!
Get a set of the pirate ship buffet.
Get a fire gun BBQ grill!
Soft slingshot moving target, star bubble exterior walls, plug-in white dolphin fun festival harp, get one of each!
Huh... what's this?
Just as Chen Jianhai was sweeping through the event store, a small star icon at the bottom caught his eye.
He clicked on the icon.
It displayed a small dolphin image, with the text:
Dolphin Bubble Gun: A five-star prop for the Dolphin Bubble Fun Festival, can be upgraded to a Jellyfish Bubble Gun and a Shark Bubble Gun. A must-have item for the fun festival.
Value: 500 points.
Chen Jianhai felt a bit of a toothache.
A five-star prop... the system really thought this through.
With a name like that, even if it cost 500 points, he had to have it, even if it meant spending real money!
Moreover, while other icons were purple, this one was gold.
The color alone determined its value!
Buy it!!!
