Guangyuan plastic surgery
Thirty-year-old Guo (pseudonym) is 1.82 meters tall and weighs 66 kilograms. He is tall and straight, fair-skinned, with thick eyebrows, which is somewhat similar to the popular Korean artist Park Jong-jae (stage name Junjin). Whenever he appears in front of a customer as a salesman in a suit and tie, the interview will not be cold. Even if he doesn't meet or call, the customer is willing to talk for a while.

Almost all customers-both men and women-have to ask if Guo is married, and some even ask in person, including those who want to fix others up. At first, Guo didn't care, but when more people asked, he was particularly disgusted, and later he gradually got used to it.

Guo knew from elementary school that he was handsome and had a high face value. When he was in middle school, he was a hero among his classmates, and there was an endless stream of girls chasing him. After working for eight years, I was promoted from an ordinary salesman to a key account manager in the sales department of Dalian Branch of a national company. He has worked as a key account manager for four years, enjoying this state very much, and even turned down some other promotion opportunities for this.

"Key account managers are more casual, and I like to meet customers, so I don't have to stay in the office every day." Guo told me, "Yan value has really brought me confidence and is more popular at work, which will have a subtle influence on my performance." Yan value will be an advantage, absolutely. "

It is no secret that high face value gains hidden benefits.

Many companies will ask cooperative headhunting companies to help them choose high-value candidates. Generally speaking, there are more requirements for women's face value than men's, and most of them involve positions that directly deal with people, such as sales, front desk, personnel, media relations, and assistant to the president. Wang Guangyuan, CEO of Beijing Baiyi Century Management Consulting Co., Ltd., which specializes in headhunting business, told Hunting.com. ..

Wang Guangyuan said: These companies attach great importance to the height, weight and personal photos of candidates, and sometimes headhunters need to video with job seekers to better meet their requirements.

"These requirements will not be made public. But in the interview, under the same conditions, the company will choose people with high face value. " Wang Guangyuan said, "After all, these positions represent the corporate image. Yan value is the added value of candidates, but sometimes it plays a decisive role. "

Yao Yuanming (pseudonym), the brand director of a technology company in Shenzhen, told Hunting.com that the value of Gao Yan is not only given priority in recruitment, but also has some unwritten special treatment within the company. ..

"In technology companies, good-looking girls have special advantages, mainly reflected in the cooperation between colleagues." Yao Yuan said, "The tolerance of superior leaders will also be enlarged."

Wang Mengyun (a pseudonym) is the boss of a consulting company in Beijing. She told Hunting.com that she likes to recruit high-profile employees, and even employees with poor ability will be given priority in promotion and salary increase.

"High face value is really a plus item. The first impression is good, and it will give people a sense of training if they look comfortable." Wang Mengyun said.

Appearance associations are all over the world, and the face value is not plastic enough to make up.

The phenomenon that high value in the workplace brings extra advantages and rewards not only exists in China, but is almost universal all over the world.

According to Global magazine, in 20 13, Saramin, a famous Korean employment website, conducted a survey on 273 heads of human resources departments, among which 84.2% of the respondents said that they would be influenced by the appearance and dress of the other party when choosing candidates.

After summarizing many research reports, the Wall Street Journal pointed out that in Britain and America, there is a "beauty premium" of 10% to 20% in work income; This rate of return is higher in jobs that need to contact customers or customers, and it can increase the income of hundreds of thousands of dollars at most in a person's career.

Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao once quoted a study in the 1990s, in which it was mentioned that handsome men earned 17% more than average-looking men, but women's "beauty premium" was only 12%.

The pursuit of high value has directly promoted the prosperity of the beauty industry. Statistics released by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery show that in 20 13 years, the total number of cosmetic surgical treatments (including surgical and non-surgical treatments) in the world was 23 million, ranking first in the United States. China ranks third among the countries with the largest number of plastic surgeons.

Zhang Dayong (pseudonym), the marketing manager of a well-known medical beauty company in Beijing, told Hunting.com that most of their customers are office workers. He believes that people's pursuit of beauty is our nature on the one hand, and on the other hand, modern movies and media are keen on packaging various national idols, which has caused many people to pursue and imitate each other.

"Plastic surgery is the most obvious help for newcomers in the workplace. People don't spend much time with newcomers. People with high general values will make people feel more approachable and more willing to communicate with them. " Zhang Dayong said, "Being good is a blessing. This is an era of looking at faces. "

In recent years, students have also become an important force in the plastic surgery team. Southern Metropolis Daily reported in July this year that students account for more than 50% of the summer plastic surgery market in Guangzhou, most of whom are high school graduates and college graduates, and the number is increasing by about 20% every year.

Gao Yan value also love dearly, attract the bees to lead the jealousy chaos.

The high face value made Guo proud, but it also made him suffer.

"What impresses customers most about you is your handsomeness, not your major." Guo said, "I want customers to feel my sincerity and professionalism, which is the core skill to win customers."

What makes Guo even more embarrassed is that some of his married or unmarried female clients sometimes give him some bright or dark expressions, some confess on the spot, and some want to ask him out at night. In this case, Guo generally chose not to respond. He thinks that if there is no response twice, the other party should give up. If it is the kind of female customer who is often harassed and extreme, his reaction is also decisive: "I am not responsible for anything" or "I have no sexual ability."

Guo's wife is very uneasy about her husband because of his superficial value and his job. She often checks Guo's mobile phone, account and car recorder, which makes Guo feel "very uncomfortable". After discovering that her husband had done nothing wrong, her wife was relieved of him and turned the frequent inspection into a surprise inspection now.

In Britain, some people can't even work in the workplace because of their beauty. The British "Daily Mail" reported in July 20 13 that Laura Fairnie, a 33-year-old British woman with a doctorate in scientific and medical research, was forced to resign because of her beauty after working in a laboratory in her country for three years and lived on her elderly parents.

Fernie said that her male colleagues are only interested in her appearance and often leave some "romantic gifts" on her desk or invite her out, which makes Fernie feel "dirty". When her female colleagues found her capable, they changed from jealousy to jealousy. Fairnie summed up his professional experience like this: "Everything is too beautiful to ruin the work."

Strong ability is king, and Yan value can't bear the weight of the laurel.

"Some special occupations and positions, such as actors and image ambassadors, have understandable requirements for Yan value, but Yan value is not suitable for ordinary employment fields." Professor Zhou Wei, director of the Human Rights Law Research Center of Sichuan University, told the Hunt.com reporter. ..

"When recruiting people in the general employment field, the job seeker's ability to work should be the first, because the face value has nothing to do with the ability required by the job responsibilities. It is unreasonable to distinguish workers by this standard, which is a kind of appearance discrimination in law. " He said.

Gao Yan's value is paid more attention in the cultural circle of China, which is related to the formalism of China culture, Zhou Wei said.

"Everyone has the psychology of loving beauty, but it is unreasonable and inconvenient to move this aesthetic preference in their hearts to jobs." Zhou Wei said, "After all, enterprises ultimately provide products and services. Enterprises should put more energy into cultivating internal strength. Looking at the appearance is a waste of talent. "

According to Zhou Wei, anti-discrimination laws in many countries and regions in the world contain clauses prohibiting discrimination against workers' appearance. In the United States, such laws can be classified as racial discrimination and gender discrimination for review. In South Korea and Taiwan Province Province, employers are explicitly prohibited by law from discriminating against workers' height and appearance.

Guo, who has mixed feelings because of his high face value, told him that he would not treat candidates differently because of his high face value when recruiting subordinates. For example, he said that he once had a colleague, whose face value was not high, but because of diligence, he also achieved good results comparable to him.

Wang Guangyuan has no requirement for face value in his headhunting company. He said that what he values most is the professional skills and professionalism of employees.

Yao Yuanming, who believes that high face value has advantages, also admits that face value is only added value.

"People who are good-looking and incompetent will still be dismissed; People who are ugly but capable will be reused. " Yao Yuan said, "For companies and managers, job performance is the most important indicator of employing people."

In fact, many high-value people can obviously rely on their faces to eat, but they all attach great importance to improving their talents.

Natalie Portman, an Israeli-American actress known as "the second in Audrey Hepburn", won 20 1 1 Oscar for best actress for her film Black Swan. She is not only talented on screen, but also an out-and-out schoolmaster. Portman, 34, graduated from the psychology department of Harvard University and knows at least five languages.

In April this year, Guangzhou Daily reported that Taiwan Province movie star Nicky Wu was enrolled in the first "Entrepreneurship Class" of Guanghua College of Peking University, which became a hot topic of public opinion.

In this regard, Ms. Ren, who is in charge of publicity, responded to the media and said: "This time it is definitely not playing with tickets, nor making friends with local tyrants. He just wants to really charge more. In recent years, in addition to filming, he has also set foot in many fields, operating game companies, making producers and trading companies for derivatives of film and television products. He also needs to go further in professional management, and he himself has a strong thirst for knowledge. "

When the founder of New Oriental spoke at Tongji University on 20 1 1, he talked about the relationship between appearance and success. He said that if a person's appearance is related to success, there will be no Ma Yun and Alibaba.
