Chapter 512: Economic Winter (Second Update)

"Sorry, our company has no plans to hire people at the moment. ”

"Sorry, we're not short of people. ”

"Let's go, let's go, we don't want anyone! Guards, get him out!"

The sun was blazing in Seoul in July, but Yoon Seung-hyun felt so cold, colder than the coldest winter night in January this year.

Bankruptcies, unemployment, suicide, a similar scenario is happening in Seoul almost every day, and it has been nearly ten days since the collapse of Seyang Securities.

In the past ten days, he spent every day constantly looking for a job. Now that prices in Goryeo have soared, the price of a kilogram of rice has exceeded 2,000 won, and the price of pork has reached nearly 20,000 won a kilogram. But it seems that the people of Seoul have suddenly become poorer and no longer take taxis, and the roads are full of idle taxis.

Oh, it's not like, it's really getting poorer.

The pressure of survival makes Yoon Seung-hyun have to find a job as soon as possible.

But in the current economic situation, large companies are busy laying off people, small companies are busy closing down, and the number of homeless people on the streets has increased sharply, and where can they find suitable jobs? The employment agency is all looking for jobs these days, but there is no recruitment unit, Yin Chengxuan is just like working when he was in college, visiting and selling from company to company, but this time he is promoting himself.

Numb by rejection, Yoon Seung-hyun robotically shuttles through the office buildings lined with Yeouido's CBD, hoping to find a job here.

"Whew, Whew!" This is the third skyscraper that Yoon Seung-hyun climbed today, recently because of the large number of people jumping off the building, the security guards of each building have strengthened their vigilance, and it is difficult for irrelevant personnel to blend into the various office buildings through the elevator, Yoon Seung-hyun used a stupid method, not from the elevator, but from the fire emergency escape to climb the stairs to each floor, to see if there are any companies with job opportunities.

"Hello, do you have anyone here? I just graduated from Seoul University last year with a major in finance, and this is my resume. Yoon Seung-hyun respectfully put his resume at the front desk of a company on the 36th floor of Shinhan Building, judging from the scale, this company should not be big, but now he can't take care of so much, as long as he can have a job, no matter what he does, even if he is asked to clean the bathroom, he is willing to do it.

No one paid attention to him, and the TV hanging on the wall of the company was broadcasting President Kim Yong-sam's speech.

Apologies, apologies again. Yoon Seung-hyun shook his head secretly, ready to try his luck with the next company.

Now that the exchange rate of the Korean won against the US dollar has fallen to 1560:1, even if the IMF announced a $54 billion aid package, it still could not stop the decline of the Korean won, and after the announcement of the plan, there are now pessimistic expectations that the Korean won will fall to at least 2000:1 against the dollar.

As soon as Yin Chengxuan turned around, he heard an angry roar from behind him: "Kim Yong-san, step down!" Immediately afterward, the other staff in the office also roared: "Kim Yong-san, step down, you should be thrown into prison!

Although Yoon Seung-hyun doesn't have a good impression of Kim Yong-sam, he usually scolds Kim Yong-sam for apologizing to the president, but now, Yoon Seung-hyun suddenly feels a little funny.

Just a month ago, the man on television was the president with the highest popular support in the history of Goryeo, coming to power as an opposition party, becoming the first civilian president of Goryeo, ending the heroes of the Goryeo military junta.

But today, a month later, this man is still the same man, because of the financial crisis in Korea and the IMF's aid, but he has become a national sinner that everyone in Korea wants to deal with quickly.

In particular, the matter of accepting IMF assistance was regarded as a national shame by the Koreans, and the IMF, which was originally bent on helping Korea recover its economy as soon as possible, was a little confused.

In the eyes of the public, Kim Yong-sam's resignation is only a matter of time, although Kim Yong-sam has repeatedly delayed time, hoping to survive this term safely, but now it seems that there is little hope.

Opposition leader Kim Dae-jung even made three consecutive televised speeches, calling on Kim Yong-sam to take the blame and resign and hold an early general election.

Yoon Seung-hyun said goodbye, but no one answered him, Yoon Seung-hyun smiled bitterly twice and continued to climb the stairs.

The next few floors were all offices rented by a division of Hyundai, and now Hyundai is also laying off employees, and Yoon Seung-hyun didn't expect Hyundai to recruit him at all, so he crossed these floors and climbed directly to the second top floor of the Shinhan Building, the 41st floor.

I remember that this used to be the management department of Citi's Yeouido branch, but now it seems to have changed? It is impossible for Citi to go out of business, right?

Oh, by the way, I heard that Citi moved to a building in Jung-gu, Yeouido, which seems to have been rented by a new company? So fast? Foreign companies, right? Korean companies are probably tightening their money and won't spend money renting office space in such a luxurious office building.

AllSpark?What kind of company is this?Yin Chengxuan thought about it, and saw that the renovation workers inside were busy, Yin Chengxuan pushed open the glass door, "Hello, is the person in charge here? I have something to do with him." ”

"Excuse me, what's the matter with you?"

Yin Chengxuan didn't react for a while, and when he looked back, he saw that it was a twenty-seven or eight-year-old Asian woman.

"You, hello, miss, I don't know what you call me, my name is Yin Chengxuan, I just graduated from Seoul University last year with a major in finance, and I want to find a job, does your company need people?"

The young woman looked interested: "Oh? Do you have a resume?"

Yin Chengxuan was overjoyed, took out a slightly wrinkled resume from his briefcase, and said embarrassedly: "I showed it to too many people today, it's a little dirty, sorry." ”

The young woman waved her hand and glanced at his resume, "Well, our company has just entered Goryeo, and we will hold an on-site interview next Monday, you can also come and participate, what kind of work do you want to do?"

Yin Chengxuan said nervously: "What, anything, as long as the company needs, I can do anything." ”

The young woman smiled slightly: "The company doesn't need you to do anything, it just needs your work." ”

Yin Chengxuan nodded again and again, seeing that the young woman was just about to turn around and say goodbye, Yin Chengxuan suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked the other party's surname yet, "I'm sorry, what should I call you?"

The young woman stopped: "You can call me Miss Chen, and we'll see you on Monday morning." ”

Yoon Seung-hyun, who took the elevator downstairs, waved his arm, finally saw the light of day, this time I must not let go of this opportunity, no matter how many competitors there are, I will defeat them!
