Chapter 110: Did You Make This Premium PPT?

Back in his room, He Rui copied the contents from the USB drive onto his computer, selected the files, confirmed, and sent them off! The actions were smooth and seamless. As for what was in the PPT... who cares!

After sending the PPT to the company, He Rui put his phone on silent. The task they gave him was done. Whether they used it or not was their problem.

With work out of the way, He Rui bounced downstairs to continue petting the cat.

Ah~ The cat feels so good!

…

The entire afternoon, Xing Feilong was on edge and restless. Although revising a PPT can be a nerve-wracking experience, he hadn't expected the wait for feedback to be just as excruciating.

"Could it be that my work was so bad the customer didn't even want to respond?"

"No way! I put my heart and soul into it."

Xing Feilong's mind was racing, but he couldn't come up with any answers. 

Forget it! He decided to go to the kitchen and see if there was something tasty to eat.

That night, Xing Feilong didn't sleep well.

He Rui, on the other hand, slept like a baby.

…

The next morning, He Rui lazily opened his phone and slowly checked his WeChat. Instantly, dozens of messages popped up.

"Xiao He, great job! The manager is very satisfied! Well done!"

"He Ge, your PPT is amazing!"

"During the meeting last night, the manager even played it for us and told us to learn from you."

"He Ge, looks like your promotion and raise at the end of the year is secure!"

"Don't forget us when you're rich and famous, He Ge!"

…

Messages of genuine congratulations and envy flooded He Rui's phone, leaving him thoroughly bewildered.

What's going on?!

The expected criticism and complaints were nowhere to be found; instead, he was being praised?

This doesn't make sense!

He Rui quickly got out of bed, turned on his computer, and opened the PPT that Xing Feilong had made. As soon as he saw it, he was stunned.

This creativity!

This design!!

This color scheme!!!

Was this really made by an ordinary hotel employee?!!!

Who would believe that?!

Being someone who had worked on countless company PPTs, He Rui had seen it all. The classic templates were more or less the same. Usually, due to the heavy workload, people would just use a template, make minimal changes, and get by.

Only for significant company presentations or reports would they put in the effort to create something truly unique.

But this PPT had no trace of any template. Every detail and image was handled so boldly, like a master showing off their skills.

"Such a premium piece, done in just two days?!"

He Rui was shocked.

If he were ten years younger, he could certainly pull it off. But given his extensive experience in the field, he could immediately tell if something was high-quality or a lazy copy.

"I totally underestimated this place!"

"This hotel is a treasure trove of talent!"

He Rui murmured to himself.

"Just the value of this PPT far exceeds the daily room rate of the hotel."

"If I could secretly keep his contact and have him do the company's PPTs,"

"I could not only greatly improve my work efficiency but also dominate the PPT projects!"

"This hotel stay is so worth it!"

Without a second thought, He Rui took the elevator downstairs and went to the front desk to ask Qin Mengqiu to call Xing Feilong.

"Sir, is there something in the PPT that needs to be changed?"

Xing Feilong came running with his laptop.

He had been worried all night that He Rui might call in the middle of the night for revisions and had barely slept. Now, receiving He Rui's summons, a heavy weight settled in his stomach.

This is more like it!

A PPT that hasn't been tortured by the client's endless revisions is a PPT without a soul!

"No need for changes! You did an excellent job!"

He Rui grabbed Xing Feilong's hand, his eyes full of gratitude.

A lifesaver!

Without Xing Feilong's PPT, he would have had to resign after this vacation.

But now, it looked like he might get a promotion and a raise by the end of the year.

The turnaround was so fast, it was hard to believe.

"I'm glad you're satisfied, sir."

Xing Feilong blushed from the praise.

This was the first PPT he made for the hotel, so he put in extra effort to make sure it was perfect and avoided any scolding.

"Let's add each other on WeChat!"

He Rui took out his phone.

"Let's stay in touch. I can find you for any future work."

Xing Feilong immediately declined:

"Sorry, sir,"

"The hotel has a policy that employees can only provide free PPT services to guests staying at the hotel."

He Rui was taken aback, but quickly understood and whispered:

"Don't worry, I won't ask you to do it for free."

"I'll pay you separately. You'll be compensated well."

Xing Feilong hesitated for a moment but still shook his head:

"Sorry, sir,"

"The hotel policy only allows us to provide PPT services to guests. We cannot accept private jobs."

He Rui was getting anxious.

"You can't expect everyone who needs a PPT to come and stay at the hotel, right!"

"Just help me out when you have time!"

This guy seems smart, how can he be so dense about this!

He's refusing an opportunity to make extra money!

"How much do you make as a waiter a month?"

"You look young, so at most, you earn around 3,000 yuan a month, right?"

"Doing a single PPT for me could earn you half a month's salary. Isn't that better than doing free PPTs at the hotel?"

"I can even introduce you to more clients. Wouldn't that give you a better financial situation?"

He Rui continued, trying to persuade him like a big brother guiding a younger one who doesn't know how to manage his finances.

The more Xing Feilong listened, the more he frowned.

3,000 yuan?

He now earned double wages, totaling over 10,000 yuan a month. With bonuses and overtime pay, if he worked hard, making nearly 20,000 yuan a month was possible.

Why would he leave such a well-paying job to work for someone else?

Besides,

He was a hotel employee, not a professional PPT designer.

He knew exactly what his primary responsibilities were.

"Sorry, sir, the hotel policy prohibits us from taking private jobs."

"If you need more services, you can always check in at the hotel."

"Well... fine!"

Seeing that Xing Feilong was steadfast and unyielding, He Rui had no choice but to give up.

This is just crazy.

What kind of spell has this hotel cast on its employees to make such a talented PPT designer willingly work as a waiter?

"At least let's add each other on WeChat!"

He Rui compromised.

Whether or not he could get him to work, it was better to have his contact.

After all, this hotel was great. A relaxing stay with someone to make PPTs for you — it couldn't get better than that!
