"Little Factory Director! This cannot be done like this!"
A group of people rushed in, led by Old Director Li Ming, who immediately spoke to Wang Yu with great distress.
"Yes, Little Factory Director, our factory has only enjoyed a few days of good fortune; we cannot go on like this!"
"That's right, we are recruiting employees properly, how did it become a tool for some people to profit?"
...
The crowd was filled with righteous indignation, and some even cast angry glances at Wu Lingling, clearly implying that "some people" referred to her!
"Oh, everyone is here?"
Wang Yu looked at the crowd before him. Fortunately, they were all familiar faces. Among the cadres were Old Director Li Ming, Feng Daochun, Han Jun, and others, as well as representatives of the workers, such as Lin Jian.
They were all visibly agitated, clearly intending to make a final effort to persuade Wang Yu.
"So many people, what are you all here for?"
Setting down his teacup, Wu Lingling also smiled at everyone, drawing their indignant glares.
Previously, everyone had thought that Wang Yu and Wu Lingling were a perfect match, talented and beautiful together. Wu Lingling had also extended a helping hand when the factory was in a critical crisis.
However, the situation had now changed. This woman was actually using Wang Yu to make money and even directly selling out the interests of their own automobile factory!
Anyone could imagine that those who were hired by paying money would definitely try every means to recoup their expenses later. Who could fathom what the automobile factory would become then!
It could only be said that a beautiful woman was a disaster. Wu Lingling had completely corrupted Wang Yu! Such a pillow talk could be incredibly powerful! How many great heroes throughout history had failed to pass this test!
"What, why are you all staring at Miss Lingling? A bunch of grown men staring at a young girl, utterly shameless!"
Brother Hu suddenly appeared at the opportune moment, shouting at everyone.
This fellow, in both his expression and tone, perfectly embodied the meaning of a lackey.
Wang Yu and Wu Lingling's plan had not been revealed to Brother Hu, leaving him entirely to his own devices.
The facts proved that this fellow's uninhibited performance had convinced almost everyone that Wang Yu's scheme was genuine.
"Wang Quanhu, you shouldn't be abetting evil here! Deceiving the Little Factory Director along with outsiders."
Old Director Li Ming pointed at Brother Hu and shouted. Brother Hu couldn't help but flinch slightly at this.
For some reason, every time he saw the Old Director, he thought of his uncle. Such a venerable elder should not be provoked casually!
"Hmph, the Little Factory Director naturally has his own ideas, what do you people know?" Brother Hu stiffened his neck, about to launch into an argument with the crowd. Although they had the advantage in numbers, when it came to arguing and causing trouble, he, Tiger, had never feared anyone! Especially now, when it was time to pick a side and show loyalty!
However, before he could finish speaking, he was directly stopped by Wang Yu.
"Since everyone is here, might as well have a cup of tea."
Wang Yu poured a cup of tea for each of them.
"I understand everyone's intentions," Wang Yu said with a smile to the crowd. "I am gratified to see all of you here. It shows that you have been tested."
"Tested?" The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, not understanding what Wang Yu meant.
"Director Wang, everything has been arranged."
Liu Lu walked into Wang Yu's office. The matter of the steel mill was essentially concluded, so she, now free of worries, had officially become an employee of the automobile factory. She was now wearing the factory's work uniform, her beautiful hair tied back in a ponytail, making her appear very sharp and capable.
Wang Yu had directly handed over the trivial matters of large-scale recruitment to her, as the secretary and supervisor.
And she had proven through her actions and results that she was very competent in her role, not failing to live up to the price Wang Yu had offered!
"Thank you for your hard work."
Wang Yu smiled, took a stack of documents from Liu Lu, and then casually handed them to the crowd before looking at Liu Lu with a smile.
"Why don't you have a cup of tea? With a biscuit?"
Liu Lu, however, shook her head with a stern expression and stood behind Wang Yu and Wu Lingling without a word.
"I didn't realize you've already acquired a secretary before your career has even taken off?"
Wu Lingling commented with a smile from the side. Wang Yu merely shook his head.
"The manufacturing industry has many miscellaneous tasks; it's good to have someone to share the pressure."
As Wang Yu and Wu Lingling conversed, the others had already taken the documents and began to pass them around.
They saw that the documents were filled with countless names and monetary figures.
"Little Factory Director, what are these?"
Everyone looked puzzled, especially seeing many familiar names among those listed, such as some of the cadres and workers who had been very active in the automobile factory recently.
"It's exactly what you imagine. This lists everyone who has taken shortcuts during the recruitment and internal personnel adjustments. And, of course, their corresponding amounts."
Wang Yu said with a chuckle, then looked around at everyone and continued on his own,
"Our factory is growing bigger and earning more money. I believe some people's thoughts might have become restless, harboring other ideas.
So, I simply found an opportunity, using Lingling's hand to set a trap, to see how many people were thinking of profiting.
Then... the result exceeded my expectations. The number of people on the list is not small; even half of the cadres and management are included.
I believe I have given you all a lot, and I have not treated you unfairly. But I truly cannot fathom that there are so many people in our factory who still feel it's not enough and want more!
However, fortunately, none of you are on the list. This is for the best, saving me the trouble of retraining cadres to optimize the organizational structure later."
As he spoke, Wang Yu nonchalantly took another sip of tea.
He spoke in a lighthearted manner, but everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
So, everything was under the control of this young factory director, Wang Yu!
Those individuals who had been acting like monkeys during this period were now, in hindsight, truly like monkeys performing a show.
And Wang Yu's remark about saving the trouble of retraining cadres to optimize the organizational structure clearly implied!
He was going to fire all those involved!
It was fortunate that they themselves had not been blinded by greed and gotten involved, otherwise, they would likely have faced dismissal too!
Dismissing more than half of the cadres? While others might consider leniency or maintaining stability, Wang Yu, who was known for his decisive actions, could truly resort to such drastic measures!
Everyone understood Wang Yu well and their expressions instantly changed.
"Factory Director, everyone is waiting for you to announce the results."
Liu Lu whispered into Wang Yu's ear.
"Yes, very good, let's go! Everyone, follow us."
Wang Yu stood up, stretched languidly, and then led the way out of the office.
The others exchanged glances, then sighed and followed him.
