"What do you plan to do?" Wang Heng asked curiously.
"I haven’t thought it through yet, and you guys shouldn’t pay too much attention to it."
"After all, this matter is related to my rice bowl, how can I not pay attention." Wang Heng said with a laugh.
"Then I can only say sorry, it’s likely your interests will be sowhat affected."
"It doesn’t matter, at worst I’ll just change jobs, I’ve got that bit of confidence." Chen Lin said.
"Then go ahead and do it boldly, we don’t have the right to stop you."
"Cheers."
The three clinked glasses and downed their drinks.
Their drinking session lasted until a little past ten at night.
Lin Yi called for a designated driver and left, Wang Heng and Chen Lin walked alone.
This was intentional on his part.
"Is the store expansion related to Lin Yi?"
"Probably not, even if he’s impressive, he can’t have that much influence."
"I rember you said that after the eting that day, a call ca from the construction site saying the work was halted, right?"
"It was indeed quite a coincidence, I hadn’t thought about it at the ti either."
"So what are your plans now?"
"Keep my eyes open for suitable jobs, might just leave one day."
"You really want to go?"
"Just thinking about it, depends if anyone sses with , if I’m in a bad mood, I’ll definitely leave."
"No need to act out of anger, it’s your fault if you go against money."
"That’s why I’m still working here, preparing for two outcos."
"You’re completely not handling the new store issue?"
"If it were you, what would you do?"
"Sa as you."
"So talking again is pointless."
"I’m not worried about you, mainly worried about Lin Yi. He’s more powerful than you." Wang Heng said:
"If he leaves, it’ll be a huge loss for the company."
"Not just a loss, if this isn’t handled well, our outco may be worse than the other two companies."
Chen Lin said:
"With his smarts and thods, if he acts recklessly, he can surely make headquarters feel the pain."
"You saw his attitude, we can’t manage this."
"Leave it to fate, after all, we’re just out working."
"Indeed."
"Let’s not discuss Lin Yi’s matters, seeing the current conditions, that plot of land can’t be developed anyti soon, how is headquarters handling it?"
"Tomorrow I’m going to the zone office for a eting, let Zhou Zhixue handle it himself, if he can’t solve it, he won’t be the director of the zone." Wang Heng said:
"I guess he might ask you to co tomorrow, best to bring Lin Yi too."
"I’ll try, depends on his mood."
Wang Heng smiled helplessly, "Worked for so many years, first ti seeing an employee like this."
...
Early next morning, when Lin Yi arrived at the 4S store, he was called aside by Sun Youtian.
"I’ve pulled out all the data." Sun Youtian said:
"Four cars proactively ca to check their transmissions, all had similar issues, initial judgnt is that there’s definitely a problem, just waiting for the professional certification to be released."
"I’ve already found people to work on this, should have results soon."
"Damn, not fighting for bread but for dignity, must pull off sothing big this ti."
Lin Yi nodded, he had similar thoughts.
But before the professional assessnt report cos out, he must keep his composure.
Finished talking to Sun Youtian, Lin Yi went to change into work clothes.
Soon, a ssage from Chen Lin appeared on his phone.
"Join for a eting at the zone office this afternoon, have ti?"
Lin Yi didn’t think much, replied with an OK gesture.
After lunch, Lin Yi drove, taking Chen Lin to the zone office.
anwhile, Xu Fang arrived early at Zhou Zhixue’s office.
They both understood Wang Heng’s purpose for coming.
If this matter isn’t resolved, they’ll definitely be implicated.
"Boss Zhou, I’ve tried contacting friends in the circle these days but nobody can help, what should we do?"
"I’m more anxious than you, if no solution is found, I’ll bear the main responsibility."
Suddenly, Xu Fang’s eyes lit up.
"I thought of a way."
"Let’s hear it."
"Push this matter away." Xu Fang said:
"I’ll continue doing my original work, hand over the new store issue to Chen Lin, this way if anything happens, I won’t be responsible."
"If that’s the case, you won’t have any opportunities."
"It’s not about opportunities anymore, if this isn’t solved, I might lose my job, better to offload quickly, clear my ties, let Chen Lin take the hit."
"This could work, things will need soone to take the fall."
"That’s what I think, let Chen Lin take the bla, don’t involve ."
"Let’s do that then." Zhou Zhixue checked the ti, "Ti’s about up, let’s go to the eting."
"Alright."
anwhile, Lin Yi and Chen Lin drove to the building downstairs.
Upon entering the eting room, they found not all 4S store managers were present.
It was more like an internal eting, attendees included Wang Heng, Zhou Zhixue, Wu Jinrong, Lin Yi, Chen Lin, and Xu Fang.
Seeing who was present, Lin Yi knew what today’s talk was about.
"Called you all here today mainly to discuss the store expansion." Wang Heng initiated:
"Headquarters has sent word to quickly handle this for the Zhonghai District, Boss Zhou, you’re the director for Zhonghai, you need to arrange these matters."
At this mont, Zhou Zhixue was like an ant on a hot pan, if he had solutions, he wouldn’t have delayed until now.
At this point, he could only push responsibility outward.
"Chen Lin, Xu Fang, headquarters intends to rge the two stores, as direct responsible persons, you should handle this matter."
"Boss Zhou, I have a proposal." Xu Fang said.
"Go ahead."
"Actually, our store still has a lot of work, every day we have many custors to serve, if the stores truly rge, custor choice rights will decrease, daily maintenance and consultation will face changes due to travel distances, I think it’s better not to rge, follow the original plan, that’s best for both our stores."
"You have a point."
Zhou Zhixue looked at Wang Heng and Wu Jinrong.
"Director Wang, President Wu, what do you think?"
"Although headquarters intends to rge, if conditions here don’t allow, they won’t enforce it." Wang Heng said calmly.
Xu Fang’s expression showed happiness.
"Director Wang, why don’t you talk to headquarters, suggest not rging, just continue separately, I think that’s good."
