A week later, the administrative department of the pangolin company suddenly issued a personnel appointment document: Sun Kai was appointed as the company's project manager.

This appointment really surprised the pangolins, especially the members of the "Great Wall" security system research and development team, although none of them would know the inside story of the "Great Wall" winning in the PK with the "Red Shield", so they showed strong dissatisfaction and resistance to Sun Kai so "futile", and some people even vented their grievances in front of Sun Kai.

Sun Kai is a person who understands, and he has long seen the words and deeds of these people clearly. For him, although being promoted to the middle level of the company has always been his goal, he still feels a little uncomfortable to be promoted in this way. Especially when he observed Zhao Dongliang's numb and cold expression, that feeling made him even more worried!

He warned himself that during this time, he must be a man with his tail between his legs, and he must not become the target of public criticism.

On this day, Sun Kai was sitting in his new office thinking about the computer, when he suddenly received a call from Zhao Dongliang asking him to come over. Sun Kai didn't dare to slack off and hurried to the general manager's office.

"Mr. Zhao, are you looking for me?"

"Close the door. Zhao Dongliang said with a serious expression.

Sun Kai turned around and closed the door and looked at Zhao Dongliang a little nervously.

Zhao Dongliang motioned for Sun Kai to sit down in front of him and stared at him quietly for a moment, that kind of look made Sun Kai feel worried in his heart.

"In the past two days, I have been approached by several people with their views on your appointment. Zhao Dongliang said quietly, his eyes never left Sun Kai's face. "Among them are the top of the company!"

Sun Kai did not say anything, but maintained a upright sitting posture and continued to listen.

"Frankly speaking, in the past two years in the pangolin, your work has been stable, but there are no bright spots! So, ......" Zhao Dongliang snorted lightly in his nose, "I came to you today to have a good chat with you, there is something that has been holding back in my heart for a long time!"

Zhao Dongliang got up, walked around from behind the desk, circled around Sun Kai for half a circle, and finally stopped behind him.

"Why did you steal Yuhong's 'red shield'?" Zhao Dongliang asked word by word, word by word.

Sun Kai couldn't see Zhao Dongliang behind him, but just by the latter's tone, it was enough to feel the other party's cold and contemptuous expression. He felt a chill on his back, as if Zhao Dongliang's cold gaze had deeply cut two gaps there.

"This is the leader's arrangement!" Sun Kai replied truthfully. He didn't look back because he didn't know what Zhao Dongliang wanted to say.

Sun Kai is a person who is good at disguising himself, and he never lets people easily see the change in his expression. Now, he wanted to find a strong reason, but obviously he couldn't confess to his boss Fang Yongping, because Fang Yongping had repeatedly warned him to keep the matter strictly confidential.

"Leader's arrangement?!Which leader?"

"I'm sorry! I really can't say much......"

"What do you mean, Mr. Fang asked you to do this?!" Zhao Dongliang's tone became even more stern.

Sun Kai did not answer. His body began to tremble slightly.

Zhao Dongliang turned to Sun Kai and sat on the edge of the desk.

"Did you know it's a crime?!"

"I know. However, since Yuhong is backed by an American investment fund, and Red Shield also borrows American technology, then I am doing this to improve the competitiveness of pangolin products at best, and at worst, it can be regarded as contributing to the interests of our country!" Sun Kai defended.

"Who did you hear that Yuhong is an American-funded company?"

Sun Kai didn't know how to answer, he really didn't want or dare to push the boss out as his shield, so he pretended to have nothing to say, thinking that you can't help me anyway!

"Lao Tzu tells you," Zhao Dongliang slapped his hand on the desk and shouted, "Yuhong is an authentic domestic enterprise!"

Sun Kai was taken aback by Zhao Dongliang's sudden outburst, he stared at the latter with staring eyes, and opened his mouth wide in surprise.

"Yuhong is a domestic-funded enterprise?!"

"Am I still better than you?!" Zhao Dongliang was so angry that he burst into anger, "You tell me the truth, these are all what Mr. Fang told you, right? Also, did Mr. Fang let you steal the 'Red Shield'?"

"Boss, don't force me anymore! I really can't say!" Sun Kai was still resisting, but the defense line in his heart seemed to be a little unbearable.

Zhao Dongliang jumped down from the writing desk, paced back and forth in the office, and said hatefully, "Sun Kai, we should have a minimum bottom line for dealing with people! I hope that everything you do is because you have fallen into the trap of others, not your original intention." That's why I'm bringing you to talk. If you think someone is going to cover you for a promotion and a raise, then I can tell you frankly that I'm still the general manager of Pangolin!

"Mr. Zhao, I just want to know one thing-" Sun Kai asked weakly, "Yuhong is really not an American-funded company?"

If it's really a U.S.-funded company, will the city government let it be shortlisted for this project?!"

"Even if I accidentally did something wrong, why did the pangolin implant the 'Red Shield' technology in the 'Great Wall' system?!" Sun Kai was unwilling to be suppressed by Zhao Dongliang, and he was still trying to fight back.

This sentence seems to be a general for Zhao Dongliang.

"It's not your turn to ask!" Zhao Dongliang said fiercely, his face became very ugly, he returned to the swivel chair behind the desk and sat down, put his legs on the corner of the table, and waved his hand weakly, "You go out!"

Sun Kai came out of Zhao Dongliang's office, feeling that all the people around him seemed to be staring at him, and he was terrified in his heart, afraid that they had heard the conversation he had just had with Zhao Dongliang. As he walked, he secretly looked at the employees around him with his peripheral vision, and only then did he gradually raise his head when he finally confirmed that it was completely his own heart.

Back in his office, Sun Kai sat in a chair dejected like a deflated ball. He remembered what Zhao Dongliang had just said -- Yuhong was not an American-funded company, but an out-and-out domestic-funded company! If this was really the case, then the high-sounding reason that he had relied on to support his theft of the "Red Shield" would be gone!

Sun Kai fell into a bitter entanglement......

"Red Shield" unexpectedly lost to "Great Wall", which also caused Lin Junnan's team to suffer a heavy blow. Some people quit their jobs directly, some people simply take long vacations to travel and relax, and even those who can continue to work are listless and depressed all day long. Lin Junnan convened several departmental meetings in a row to analyze the reasons and boost morale, but with little effect.

Liu Zhibin did not talk to Lin Junnan again, nor did he attend the department meeting convened by Lin Junnan. According to his previous style, he generally does not frequently ask questions about established work tasks or projects, and he will leave a relaxed environment for his subordinates. If the project is successful, he will personally set up a banquet to treat his subordinates, otherwise, only when the project fails, he will personally participate in the project team's analysis meeting and analyze and summarize with everyone. However, for the failure of Lin Junnan's team, Liu Zhibin showed an extraordinary calmness, which made Lin Junnan's heart go up and down.

Judging from the current indications, there is no doubt that the "Red Shield" technology has been stolen. However, what went wrong, Lin Junnan never figured it out. Although it was possible for all the people in the team to betray the "Red Shield" technique, he Lin Junnan had no reason to suspect anyone. So far, his biggest suspicion is still Sun Kai. However, when he saw Sun Kai's open-minded appearance, he really couldn't accept his judgment emotionally.

"Could it be that Liu Zhibin's calmness in this matter is because he has already regarded me as a leaker?!If this is the case, then what is the point of me staying in Yuhong?!" Lin Junnan thought.

Lin Junnan thought about it for two days, and finally made up his mind and submitted a letter of resignation to Liu Zhibin.

Regarding Lin Junnan's sudden resignation, Liu Zhibin was not psychologically prepared. He took the letter of resignation in his hand and read it several times, as if he was picking on the sick sentences or typos in it, and his face was very melancholy.

"I don't blame you for the 'Red Shield' leak!" Liu Zhibin slowly put the resignation letter on the table, sighed and said, "You may have concerns about my lack of participation in your team's discussions, if you really think so, it is purely your misunderstanding." I didn't go because I didn't want to put more pressure on you because I was there, and – seriously, I fully appreciate your ability to manage and coordinate projects and trust you to handle things as a team on your own. Also, I don't want you to review me in front of my subordinates, some things still need to be divided...... Although, through my initial understanding of the 'Great Wall' plan, I have strongly felt that there is a possibility of leakage of our 'Red Shield', I have never doubted your character! Therefore, you don't need to let yourself carry this matter at all!"

Liu Zhibin's words are very pertinent, and it doesn't look like a conversation between the boss and his subordinates at all, but like two brothers. When Lin Junnan heard this, he was grateful, and all the previous worries and suspicions gradually dissipated. However, as the person in charge of the "Red Shield" project, he knew that he could not shirk his responsibilities no matter what, and the current situation of the team had already caused a certain negative impact in the company, and he could not escape the blame! Therefore, only his resignation could give an explanation for the whole thing.

"Thank you, Mr. Liu, for your trust in me! But as the leader of the 'Red Shield' team, I feel that I should take full responsibility for this unexpected loss!

Liu Zhibin got up and made Lin Junnan a cup of coffee, invited him to sit down on the sofa, and sat opposite him.

"You have worked in Yuhong for three and a half years, and you can be regarded as half a veteran!" Liu Zhibin patiently persuaded, "Yuhong has gone through a lot to get to today, and there are many things you don't know. This leak of the 'Red Shield' system is of course a big blow to you, but for Yuhong, it's just a business yellow, I don't care! So, I want to ask you to put these down and focus on the long term, after all, our Yuhong is still a well-known company in the domestic market, and we will go public in the future!"

"Mr. Liu," Lin Junnan sat upright on the sofa, "I have not been able to bring anything to the company in Yuhong for the past few years, but I have been able to get your support and help, I am already very ashamed! This project failed, someone must take responsibility, as the team leader, of course, I am duty-bound! Now the company is already unstable, if I still stay in the company, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public in the future, and it will affect the management of the company, please accept my resignation!"

Liu Zhibin looked at Lin Junnan silently, pondered for a long time, and asked, "So, what are you going to do next?"

"I just want to take a break and then make plans. ”

"Otherwise, I'll give you two months to go around...... If you want to come back, you will come back! If you want to start your own business, I will support you!"

"Thank you, Mr. Liu! However, since I chose to leave Yuhong, it is impossible for me to come back!" Lin Junnan's voice was slightly choked when he said this, and tears began to flash in his eyes, "...... Please believe that I will always remember this time in Yuhong! I will also remember your help to me!"

Liu Zhibin stared at Lin Junnan for a long time, knowing that he couldn't move Lin Junnan, he sighed helplessly, walked in front of Lin Junnan, grabbed his shoulders tightly with both hands, and said:

"Let's have dinner together in the evening! I'll call a few more people to see you off!"
