Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1243: Chapter 1202: Just wait and listen to the good news!

Shenhe Group, in front of a large conference room, six or seven people gathered there, whispering quietly.

Many people’s faces looked terrible.

These people were all transferred from the headquarters to support Bai Xiaosheng’s work at Nanyu, and they were people Xiahou Qi thought could be trusted.

Of course, what Xiahou Qi trusted was their character.

It’s not that they were all Xiahou Qi’s confidants.

At least, those standing here actually knew very little about the whole situation; they vaguely heard that the investigation seemed to relate to Shen Peishen, initiated by Bai Xiaosheng.

Since Mr. Xiahou Qi sent them over with significant performance bonuses, and the last investigation in Nandu didn’t provoke any retaliation from Shen Peishen toward the working Affairs Officers,

they came without worries, even if the circumstances became delicate, they still stayed to investigate.

But now, they were really annoyed, truly annoyed.

Because the Greater China Region Headquarters had just issued a punishment notice for them!

Acting presumptuously, not following rules, leaving positions without authorization...

All sorts of reasons were listed.

The punishments were extremely severe!

In effect, every one of them might have to leave their jobs!

”You say we were all sent here to work, under Elder Xia’s arrangements, who would dare not to listen, he was still the president of the Greater China Region at that time, so, we actually had no choice! Do you agree?”

”Now, as the leaders have conflicts, that is their own business, it shouldn’t bring disaster upon us subordinates! We didn’t provoke or offend anyone, why are we suddenly struck by a calamity! This is unreasonable! Do you agree?”

...

The person encircled by everyone spoke the loudest, and seemed the most resentful.

Compared to others nearby, this person was relatively young, around forty years old, wearing glasses, with a notably receding hairline, evidently usually a stressed individual.

But it wasn’t clear exactly what stressed him out so much.

At the moment, unlike the others who were silently worried, he spoke eloquently with a firm voice, seemingly acting as a spokesperson for everyone, as if every word was for everyone’s benefit.

In fact, during this time of panic, such a voice was paradoxically most appealing, with many listening anxiously.

”Actually, at the end of the day, this trouble was stirred up by Bai, the Senior Executive Officer!”

”Let me tell you, I heard, recently, Sir Shen, who is the current acting president, wanted to summon Bai back. The reason? Some of the people we investigated were promoted by Sir Shen himself, and being investigated like this, he asked a few questions, which is entirely justified. Not to mention, Sir Shen is now the acting president, it’s normal for him to want to understand the situation. Right?”

”But our Bai, the Senior Executive Officer, is really stubborn! When Elder Xia was in power, he was utterly unscrupulous. Now that Sir Shen has become the acting president—acting! Does someone like Bai, the Senior Executive Officer, care!”

”Bai, the Senior Executive Officer, completely disregards the orders from headquarters. Not to mention this, did he ever say a word to us? No! Not once! He didn’t consult us and just kept us here! Now, we are innocently dragged into this mess! Do you agree?”

Many people looked towards the man with glasses.

Someone quietly asked, ”If Bai, the Senior Executive Officer, refuses to return, Sir Shen can bring it up with him; what does it have to do with us?”

The man with glasses scoffed in disdain, ”Bai is mighty, promoted by Elder Xia, and he has worked hard; he has the power, hardly anyone dares to touch him.”

”What do we have? Also, we were left here without saying a word, that means we are opposing headquarters!”

”Who knows, maybe Sir Shen asked us all to return too. Did anyone move? Of course, even if everyone wanted to go back, if Bai, the Senior Executive Officer, doesn’t allow it, who would dare act!”

”I think, most likely Sir Shen’s orders to call us back were suppressed by Bai, the Senior Executive Officer.”

”What do you think, should we, ’those who do not comply with company arrangements, do not obey headquarters commands’, even stay in headquarters anymore! Isn’t this an excuse for punishment. Do you agree?”

This speech from the man with glasses made that group of anxious middle-aged people silently agree.

There was a saying, ”In the workplace, don’t scold young people, they will resign immediately. If you’re going to scold, scold those middle-aged people with houses and cars; scold them dead, they won’t dare to resign.”

Now, this saying seemed relevant, targeting those middle-aged middle managers; they have spent half their lives climbing to this position, have families to feed, and suddenly they are being fired.

Their lives had to restart.

Under such a blow, people couldn’t help but break down.

So, no matter how wise and clever these Affairs Officers once were.

Now, they were gradually losing their rationality.

They became more convinced by the words of the man with glasses.

”So, no matter what you do, if the company fires me, I’ll go find Bai, the Senior Executive Officer! Why not! I’ve worked hard and in the end, without any achievements or bonuses, I also lose my job?! In any case, Bai, the Senior Executive Officer should take full responsibility for this! Do you agree?” the man with glasses shouted.

The people around, apart from those who were silent, involuntarily nodded slightly.

The man with glasses noticed this and felt secretly pleased.
