Chapter 286 Who Begs Whom
"Ah... okay, okay, I'll be right there." The secretary didn't care about anything else and agreed repeatedly as she walked downstairs. When she got downstairs, she saw Yunzhi and smiled broadly, "Miss Yun, thank you for waiting."
"Not too long. Where's Cheng Shuyan?" Yun Zhi asked as she walked inside. The secretary, remembering the woman who had clearly come for the president, paused in her smile and replied truthfully, "Miss Yun, President Cheng is discussing business in his office."
Discussing business? So that woman was Cheng Shuyan's business partner?
Haha, a business partner who has absolutely no connection to Cheng Shuyan dares to touch Cheng Shuyan's phone. If this person didn't do it on purpose, then she should change her name.
"Why is Cheng Shuyan in such a hurry to be discharged today? Didn't the doctor tell him to stay in the hospital for a few more days?" Yunzhi suppressed her anger, took a deep breath, and asked another question.
The secretary hesitated for a moment, seemingly unsure whether to answer truthfully. Remembering Cheng Shuyan's previous orders, she finally explained honestly to Yunzhi.
“Ms. Yun, during the time when President Cheng was in a car accident, someone in the industry maliciously spread rumors that President Cheng was in critical condition. Because of this rumor, several collaborations were lost. Although President Cheng came forward to refute the rumors, some people still spread them, saying that President Cheng was just putting on a brave face and that he wouldn’t last more than a few months. They also said that President Cheng had no children and that after a few months, when President Cheng closes his eyes, it’s unknown who will get the company.”
The secretary paused, adjusted her black-rimmed glasses, and continued with a helpless expression.
"This rumor is so outrageous that even after I investigated, I couldn't find the culprit. In addition, President Cheng couldn't appear because he needed to be observed. In the end, the rumor spread like wildfire, and people in the company became very anxious because of it. Even though the company's senior management issued a statement, the resignation rate has increased significantly during this period. In addition, with today's cooperation, the other party specifically requested President Cheng to come forward, so President Cheng simply left the hospital."
So that's why... But why didn't Cheng Shuyan tell her when she was discharged from the hospital?
And the person spreading these rumors behind the scenes must be someone who can't stand to see Cheng Shuyan doing well. Yunzhi even felt that the person spreading these rumors behind the scenes was someone from Ye Chengyan's group. Starting from the timeline described by the secretary, the rumors started to spread on the third day after Cheng Shuyan and her car accident. At that time, not many people knew that she and Cheng Shuyan had been in a car accident, and Ye Chengyan was one of them.
If that's the case, then Ye Chengyan's business tactics are far too dirty.
“It’s only been less than half a month, and your staff is already in a state of panic. If they can’t even handle this much psychological pressure, they might as well resign as soon as possible.” Yunzhi glanced at her secretary out of the corner of her eye, her voice as cold as ice, devoid of any warmth.
She could understand the employees' actions. They were simply afraid that if Cheng Shuyan really got into trouble, the company would be in chaos, and with so many people, it would be difficult to find another job. But this also showed that these people were selfish and would not stand with the company through thick and thin. This time, Cheng Shuyan was alright, but if they were to get into trouble, these people would abandon the company without hesitation.
If Cheng Shuyan's company had poor benefits, that would be one thing, but the company's benefits are among the best in the entire city, no, even in the whole country. People who want to work for this company are desperate to get in. The company has not wronged its employees, and the upper management has even issued a statement explaining that Cheng Shuyan has not had any problems. But these people still do not trust the company and are looking for other jobs.
In Yunzhi's view, there is no need to keep such an employee. No matter how excellent the person is, if he is not loyal to the company, he will still betray the company as long as someone offers him enough benefits.
"Yes, Miss Yun, that's what President Cheng said too. So during this period, as long as someone applied for resignation, we approved it immediately. Today, when President Cheng appeared at the company, some people regretted it and wanted to withdraw their resignation applications, but we didn't approve any of them." The secretary explained in a low voice, afraid that Yun Zhi would be angry about this.
The secretary didn't tell Yunzhi either. Some people even tried to use their connections to get the company to give him another chance, but the company didn't agree.
Yunzhi's expression softened somewhat.
As they talked, they quickly reached the top floor. At the door of Cheng Shuyan's office, Yunzhi looked at the closed office door of Cheng Shuyan and glanced at the secretary without saying a word.
"Miss Yun, Miss Tan is inside discussing a contract with President Cheng. Miss Tan is the business partner who requested that President Cheng personally discuss the contract with her face-to-face." The secretary knew the identities of Yun Zhi and his boss. There was a 99.9% chance that this woman would become his boss's wife in the future. She was someone who could influence his boss's life, so how could he dare to offend her?
Miss Tan? Yunzhi frowned.
"Just the two of them?"
"Yes, just the two of them." Seeing Yunzhi's face turn cold instantly, the secretary felt it necessary to defend the president.
"Miss Yun, it was Miss Tan who strongly requested this. She said she didn't like having extra people present when discussing the contract. The Tan family is one of our company's long-term partners. However, due to Mr. Tan's hospitalization, the Tan Group is temporarily under Miss Tan's management. Mr. Cheng agreed to Miss Tan's unreasonable request out of respect for Mr. Tan."
"What does the Tan family do?" Yunzhi pondered for a moment, then looked up and stared straight at the door of the CEO's office, as if trying to see what the people inside were doing through the door.
"Tanjia is the largest property management company in Haishi. Our company has been cooperating with Tanjia Property. If the cooperation falls apart, it will cause some trouble. I'm afraid that all the communities developed by our company will have to change property management companies."
Property management company?
Cheng Shuyan also found it troublesome, which is why he gave the Tan family this face.
Upon hearing this, Yunzhi sneered, "This Miss Tan seems to have misunderstood the situation. It should be the Tan family that is pursuing your company for cooperation, but she's acting all high and mighty. If your company doesn't cooperate with the Tan family, at most you'll just have some trouble switching to a familiar property management company. But for the Tan family, losing such a major client as your company will be a serious blow."
I really don't know whether to call this Miss Tan stupid or what.
Having Miss Tan is truly a blessing for the entire Tan family.
Yunzhi mentally complained.
But what she really wanted to know was why it was Ms. Tan who answered the phone.
The secretary beside him nodded in agreement. The Tan family didn't want to cooperate with their company, but there were plenty of companies that wanted to. It was only because Old Mr. Tan wasn't around that Miss Tan was making such a fuss.
