Jiang Qilong sat in the middle of the conference room, looking at Gao Jie and Xu Lulu who were clearly different from each other. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Manager Xu, I will give you ten days to conduct market research. Can you do it?"
Xu Lulu said happily: "Okay, Mr. Jiang."
Gao Jie's face stiffened, feeling that Jiang Qilong was on Xu Lulu's side, and he was slightly unhappy, but it was hard to get angry.
Jiang Qilong looked at Gao Jie again and said, "Mr. Gao, come to my office later. I just made a can of the best Longjing. Let's try it together."
Wang Gang knew that Jiang Qilong wanted to reconcile with Xini and balance the power of the two factions in the company.
After the meeting, Jiang Qilong took Wang Gang back to the office and asked, "What do you think of today's meeting?"
Wang Gang said directly: "It's not that good. If you can open it, it means you haven't opened it yet."
Jiang Qilong smiled and said: "Are you angry? You think dad doesn't support your project?"
Wang Gang shook his head and said: "Of course not, I just think the company is quite interesting. Uncle Gao is an old minister and should be a conservative, but he is very enterprising.
Xu Lulu is a young person, the most enterprising at her age, but conservative in doing things!"
Jiang Qilong was stunned and asked: "Then which one do you think is better?"
Wang Gang said without hesitation: "Manager Xu is much better than Uncle Gao."
Jiang Qilong said strangely: "I thought you would appreciate Gao Jie who supports you more."
"Why do you think so? Just because Uncle Gao supports me unconditionally, shouldn't I appreciate him more?" Wang Gang said with a smile.
"Then tell me why Xu Lulu is better than Gao Jie. You have to know that Gao Jie is the vice president and is only below me in the company!" Jiang Qilong was interested in taking the exam.
"Any project should have a preliminary research stage, otherwise it will not be implemented in the future. Xu Lulu may seem conservative, but she is actually doing it for the good of the company.
On the contrary, Uncle Gao supports me unconditionally just because I am your son, which is irresponsible to the company."
Jiang Qilong sighed: "Lao Gao has been with me the longest and suffered the most, so he has become more and more slick. On the contrary, Xu Lulu has only been in the company for a few years and has been striving for performance and doing very well."
"You want to fire Uncle Gao and support Xu Lulu to take over, but you are worried about getting a bad reputation?" Wang Gang asked strangely.
"Nonsense, when did I say I would fire Gao Jie?" Jiang Qilong said seriously:
"Tianhao, remember, you can never treat those old ministers badly at any time. The company can develop to this point only because of these old ministers. We can't offend the old ministers."
Wang Gang raised his eyebrows and said in disapproval: "You are humane and caring about friendship is a good thing, but if the company wants to develop, it cannot rely solely on human kindness. It is very irrational to place unsuitable people in unsuitable positions."
Jiang Qilong suddenly laughed and said: "You kid is trying to teach me a lesson, I eat more salt than you eat rice!"
Wang Gang was speechless. He was most afraid of hearing people say such things. In fact, he had almost forgotten how old he was.
Comparing age and experience, who can compare with him!
In the next few days, Jiang Qilong took Wang Gang with him to work to familiarize him with the company's affairs. Xu Lulu's investigation also went smoothly and she made a very detailed investigation report.
Data shows that the food small packaging business has a very bright future, and the initial investment is not too much. With the company's current funds, it is entirely possible to set up a factory as long as it closes its branches in other cities.
The biggest problem now is sales channels.
Wang Gang means to cooperate with major supermarket chains in Jiangzhou City, put the company's new products on the shelves, and spend money on publicity. It is best to get official support from Jiangzhou City.
Jiang Qilong divided the work and asked Gao Jie to handle the layoffs of the branch, and Xu Lulu to take charge of the qualifications and preliminary preparations for opening the factory. He took Wang Gang to find the supermarket to discuss cooperation.
The whole month of July was spent busy, and by the beginning of August, Jiangjia Kitchen gradually closed all its branches except Jiangzhou City.
Xu Lulu was also optimistic about an old food factory and bought the factory building and equipment for 14 million. She also solved the problem of laid-off employees and received strong support from the district.
However, progress at Gao Jie's side was not smooth. After the branches in other cities were closed, employees' severance compensation could not be negotiated for a long time. Many people took the train to Jiang's kitchen to cause trouble, and even Jiang Qilong was alarmed in the end.
Jiang Qilong had no choice but to come forward in person and negotiate with those employees who had resigned, but with little success.
When the negotiations seemed to be at a stalemate, Xu Lulu suddenly found Wang Gang.
"Mr. Xiao Jiang, I have something I want to talk to you about in private."
Wang Gang looked at Xu Lulu strangely.
In the past month, Wang Gang spent most of his time following Jiang Qilong and had little contact with Xu Lulu.
Xu Lulu is twenty-eight years old this year. She has good looks. I heard she doesn’t have a boyfriend. She has been working in the Jiang family kitchen since she graduated from Tsinghua University. There is no doubt about her work ability. It can even be said that she is so good that it affects her personal affairs.
.
Jiang Qilong once joked that if he introduced a boyfriend to Xu Lulu, he would be guaranteed to be a young talent from Jiangzhou City. Unfortunately, Xu Lulu refused in the end.
"Manager Xu, if you have anything to do with me," Wang Gang came to her office with Xu Lulu out of curiosity.
Xu Lulu said seriously: "I want to talk to Mr. Xiao Jiang about employee resignation negotiations!"
Wang Gang was stunned and said in confusion: "Shouldn't you ask my dad about this? I can't care about it!"
Xu Lulu took out a stack of photos, spread them out on her desk, and said, "There are some photos here. I want Mr. Xiao Jiang to take a look first."
Wang Gang picked up the photos and found that they were all secret photos of Gao Jie meeting people. He wondered: "Why are you showing me this?"
"President Gao met with laid-off employees in private, probably to reach some kind of deal and wanted to cheat the company's severance compensation." Xu Lulu said seriously:
"I think this matter is very serious and must be reported to Mr. Jiang."
Wang Gang put down the photo and said with a smile: "In that case, you can just report it to my dad directly. Why are you looking for me?"
Xu Lulu wondered: "The whole company knows about the friendship between Mr. Jiang and Mr. Gao. I am worried that if I show these photos, Mr. Jiang will misunderstand and think that I deliberately framed Mr. Gao."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wang Gang stared at Xu Lulu carefully, as if he wanted to see through her heart.
"Manager Xu, I'm very curious. With your academic qualifications, you should have a better choice. Why did you come to Jiangjia Kitchen? You should be able to see the current crisis in Jiangjia Kitchen?" Wang Gang asked.
Xu Lulu suddenly laughed and said: "Mr. Xiao Jiang, sometimes I feel that you don't look like a sixteen-year-old child!"
"You didn't answer my question." Wang Gang said aggressively.
Xu Lulu said: "Mr. Jiang has anonymously sponsored several poor students and paid for their tuition and living expenses. I am one of them."
Wang Gang asked curiously: "So you came to Jiang's kitchen to repay your kindness? But since my dad donated anonymously, how did you know?"
"If you want to investigate this kind of thing, there is always a way." Xu Lulu said frankly: "As soon as I graduated from college, I made up my mind to work in Jiangjia Kitchen. It was only after I came that I discovered that there were many problems within the company."
Wang has just been in the company for a month, so he naturally knows about the company's problems. Xu Lulu has been here for several years, so it's not surprising that she is aware of it.
"Mr. Jiang is too nice and misses old friendships too much. Instead, he breeds a group of moths who only want to pry into the corners of the company and are not good for the company." Xu Lulu sighed:
"If the company does not make changes, sooner or later it will be defeated by this group of people."
Wang Gang shook his head and said: "Then you have found the wrong person. My father is very stubborn and there is no way he would listen to the opinions of a child like me."
Xu Lulu smiled and said: "I gave these photos to you because I wanted to pass them on to another person."
"It must be my mother!" Wang Gang said.
Xu Lulu nodded, feeling that Wang Gang really didn't look like a sixteen-year-old boy.
Wang Gang accepted the photo and said, "Photos alone are not enough."
Xu Lulu took out another USB flash drive.
"This is the audio file I hired a private detective to follow Mr. Gao and secretly recorded."
Wang Gang readily picked up the USB flash drive and said, "Okay, I'll hand it over to my mother today."
Xu Lulu breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Gang suddenly said: "Actually, you have always secretly had a crush on my dad, right!"
Xu Lulu was startled and looked at Wang Gang with wide eyes.
"Mr. Xiao Jiang, what are you talking about? How could I have a crush on Mr. Jiang!"
Wang Gang raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I have seen it many times. You secretly looked at my dad and there was something wrong in your eyes. You didn't dare to give the photo to my mom directly. Are you worried that she would see something?"
Xu Lulu said in panic: "No, it's not like that. Mr. Jiang is already married, and I will not destroy his family."
Wang Gang put the things away, winked at Xu Lulu and said, "Don't worry! I will keep the secret for you."
After saying that, Wang Gang left the office, leaving Xu Lulu alone in the wind and messy.
Wang Gang walked directly to Jiang Qilong's office and happened to see Duan Xiaohong there. The two seemed to be discussing employee severance compensation.
"Lao Jiang, employee severance compensation cannot be set too high, otherwise it will affect the opening of the factory." Duan Xiaohong said.
"These people are all old employees of the company, some are old at the top and some are young at the bottom. If the compensation is not sufficient, how will they live in the future?" Jiang Qilong worried.
"We have paid full compensation in accordance with national standards, but these people are still not satisfied and are clearly trying to cheat us." Duan Xiaohong said angrily.
The couple disagreed and argued for a long time with no result.
Wang Gang took an apple by himself, sat on the sofa in the office, and started eating it without any rush.
Jiang Qilong couldn't stand it anymore and said to Wang Gang: "What show are you watching? If you have nothing to do, go find work outside. Don't be an eyesore to me."
Wang Gang stood up with a smile, then took out the photos and USB flash drive.
"Uncle Gao contacted the fired employees privately and incited them to increase their compensation."
Jiang Qilong and Duan Xiaohong were stunned and picked up the photo in disbelief. Duan Xiaohong even inserted the USB flash drive into the computer and opened the audio file.
In the recording, Gao Jie had secret conversations with several dismissed employees, asking them to force Jiang Qilong to increase the compensation. He also said that Jiang Qilong was a kind-hearted person who could not bear to see others suffer misery, so he came up with ideas to let them make themselves as miserable as possible.
After Wang Gang listened to the recording, he had to admire Gao Jie for how thoroughly he touched Jiang Qilong.
Snapped!
Duan Xiaohong slapped the table and said angrily: "This Gao Jie is so shameless. He took the company's money but smashed the company's bowl. He has been a loss to us for so many years. He treats him like a younger brother."
Jiang Qilong's face was ugly, he looked like he was constipated, and his eyes showed pain.
"Does Gao Jie have any difficulties?" Jiang Qilong is still making excuses for Gao Jie.
"You were just too nice to him, causing him to pick up the pieces." Duan Xiaohong said angrily, "I'll go settle the score with him."
"Don't." Jiang Qilong grabbed Duan Xiaohong and said, "We have been friends for decades, don't let this trivial matter hurt our friendship."
Wang Gang looked at Jiang Qilong in surprise, wondering why he still wanted to let Gao Jie go at this time.
What’s more, I can’t understand why Xu Lulu has a crush on him?
"Dad, Gao Jie's behavior has already harmed the interests of the company. If such a person stays in the company, he will kill our family sooner or later."
Jiang Qilong said angrily: "Go, don't stir up trouble for me here. I haven't asked you why you recorded it privately, so he's still your uncle after all!"
Wang Gang rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not so free. This is a private investigation by Manager Xu."
Duan Xiaohong frowned and said: "Xu Lulu?!"
Wang Gang discovered that his mother really knew Xu Lulu's feelings for Jiang Qilong.
"Manager Xu was worried that if the layoffs and store closures were not handled well, it would affect the company's future layout, so he asked someone to investigate a few people who were leading the trouble. Unexpectedly, he found out that Gao Jie was behind it."
Wang Gang said to Jiang Qilong: "Manager Xu knew about your relationship with Gao Jie, so he told me about it first."
Jiang Qilong said gloomily: "Does this Xu Lulu spend her time investigating Gao Jie to take the vice president's seat?"
Wang Gang glanced at Duan Xiaohong, thinking that he was not looking at the position of vice president, but the position of the boss's wife.
Duan Xiaohong was in a state of uncertainty at the moment, and no one knew what she was thinking.
"Lao Jiang, no matter what, Gao Jie has violated my bottom line. This man must be dealt with severely, otherwise he will not know how to harm us in the future!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Jiang Qilong said: "Okay! I'll talk to him first!"
Duan Xiaohong said solemnly: "Let me go! You are too emotional. Don't forgive Gao Jie if he says a few soft words."
After all, they are a couple, and Duan Xiaohong knows her husband too well.
"Mom, let me go with you!" Wang Gang took the initiative to stand on his mother's side.
Seeing that his wife and son had made up their minds, Jiang Qilong couldn't help but sigh: "It's time for everyone to get together and relax, so don't make things too complicated."
Wang Gang disagreed and said: "I think the bigger the issue, the better, just to scare the monkeys."
When Jiang Qilong heard his son's words, he couldn't help but look at his wife again.
Duan Xiaohong nodded faintly.
Jiang Qilong sighed and waved for them to go ahead and do it!
An hour later, Gao Jie ran to Jiang Qilong's office angrily.
"Jiang Qilong, if you want to lay off me, why bother to find a woman and a child? If you have any questions, we can talk to you face to face."
Duan Xiaohong and Wang Gang ran slowly, but they could no longer stop Gao Jie.
Facing the angry Gao Jie, Jiang Qilong said with a sullen face: "Gao Jie, you really think I don't know what you have done in the company over the years.
I just didn’t call the police because of our decades of friendship!”
Gao Jie was startled, but he remained stubborn.
"I, Gao Jie, have worked hard for the company for twenty years. If you lay off me, I will be compensated with three months' salary. I am not sorry."
Duan Xiaohong said angrily: "Since you are not satisfied with the compensation, then we will follow the formal procedures. You will go to arbitration, and I will call the police!"
How could Gao Jie ask Duan Xiaohong to call the police if his butt is not clean?
"Okay, you two are going to kill each other, but I want to see when the Jiang family's kitchen is finished!"
After leaving a harsh word, Gao Jie left the company. Soon the news of his resignation spread throughout the company. Those who colluded with him saw that the vice president was willing to leave at his request. They no longer dared to cause trouble and received reasonable compensation.
