Chapter 743: House of Cards (Part II)

……

"Sure enough, everything was as we guessed!"

Richard Grubman turned down his invitation when the two sides had already agreed on terms, and the biggest reason could only be the CEO position of Maersk Group.

Compared with the nascent global company, it is obvious that Maersk Group, a giant whose business involves container transportation, logistics, terminal operations, oil and gas extraction and production, has assets of up to 45 billion US dollars, almost three times that of global companies, has a greater temptation for Richard Grubman. Moreover, he is more familiar with the operation of Maersk than Universal Company, who has worked here for more than ten years. If Guo Shouyun is in Richard Grubman's position, I am afraid he will also make the same choice as the other party.

"The focus on Richard Grubman is here for now. Is there any other news from the Information Management Department?"

"Around the number nine target appeared Paul Hughes, executive vice president of Goldman Sachs' PE business unit. ”

"Goldman Sachs, it seems that no matter where they go, they are not willing to be lonely!"

"Anything else?"

"Target Three appeared in Washington on January 27 of this year, coincidentally Target Seven and the eldest son of Target Two also appeared there, and we also found Jon Winkreid, co-president and co-COO of Goldman Sachs, Steven Volcker, vice chairman of Citigroup, and Daniel Trotter, president and chief operating officer of ING Group in the Netherlands. ”

“… John Watson, President and Chief Operating Officer of Chevron-Texaco, Carl Corey, CEO of Kongscart, Steven Lipping, CEO of Halliburton Energy, Gary Schwartz, Executive Vice President of General Electric, and Jim Hagerman, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Maersk Group. Vice President Richard Bruce Cheney and Barclays Capital CEO Jerry Midell appeared at the same time in the same place. ”

Guo Shouyun stood up suddenly, his breathing was short, and his face was full of shock!

"Is the message exact?"

He hurriedly asked.

"Exactly, we checked the license plate number of each car and tracked the destination of all the cars. No mistakes are guaranteed. ”

Guo Shouyun took a deep breath and calmed down his 'bang' heart a little.

"Will, you gave me a big 'surprise' this time!"

"Boss, I think it's bad news. ”

"No, that's good news! Now, despite the incredible strength of our opponents, if we know who they are, we can find a way to deal with them sooner. After a pause, Guo Shouyun pondered for a moment, "Reorder these people according to their importance, and then scatter all our shadows." From now on, I want to know where these people go every day and what they do. ”

"Yes!"

After hanging up the phone, Guo Shouyun no longer had the heart to pick up the chair and sit back. With all kinds of thoughts in his mind turning rapidly, he once again experienced the tension and excitement of the showdown with Citi before 9/11.

"All the fog has been lifted, is it for the sake of rubies that Kongscat's procrastination in the negotiations is a distraction for me, is it for the sake of rubies that I am being drawn into the whirlpool of war and anti-war public opinion?"

Before his words to himself fell, Wang Jue and Wu Xiaojing hurriedly pushed the door and walked in.

The boss, Tim George, CEO of Ruby, Christina White, CEO of Global Wealth, Lauren Moore, director of public relations, and 23 of the company's middle executives all resigned. ”

While Wang Jue was talking, Wu Xiaojing had already turned on the wall-mounted TV on the wall and found Fox News.

Soon, Tim George, Christina White and other ruby executives appeared on it.

"Mr. George, as the CEO of Ruby Company, what prompted you to resign?"

"There were some problems with Ruby's operations that I couldn't solve. Also, I don't approve of the U.S. government's war against Iraq, which was a massacre. That's why I don't want to work for a boss who supports the war anymore!"

"Ms. White, what is your reason for resigning?"

"I have similar reasons to Mr. George. I also don't want to work for a boss who supports the war anymore. ”

"Mr. George, what exactly do you mean by the intractable problems that exist in the Ruby Company, and what are the reasons for these problems?"

"It's mainly a matter of business management. My boss at Ruby, Mr. Bruce Kwok, was an entrepreneur who preferred aggressive corporate development policies and did not hesitate to keep the company highly indebted, and as a professional manager, it was my main job to balance the balance and make the business healthy. It's hard for us to really reconcile that, and that's one of the reasons I left. ”

"Is the same with Ms. White?"

"Yes...!"

Looking at the picture broadcast on TV, Guo Shouyun's face was unexpectedly calm.

"I didn't expect you to end up on this path. ”

The phone rang quickly.

"Boss, it's Eric Schmidt's call!"

After taking it over, "Boss, I think now you have received the news of the departure of Tim George, Christina White and others. ”

"Hmm... LinkedIn's market value has also started to fall, right?"

"There are a lot of bears on LinkedIn in the market!"

Nodding clearly, after a brief consideration, Guo Shouyun immediately said: "You notify the heads of various departments to have a meeting, and I will be in the company in ten minutes." ”

"Yes!"

After hanging up the phone, Guo Shouyun picked up his clothes from the hanger next to him and put them on, and hurriedly walked out of the door.

After perceiving that Tim George had the intention of communicating with foreign enemies, Guo Shouyun decisively supported Eric Schmidt as the president and chief operating officer of Ruby Company. In later generations, he was able to manage Google's prosperity, and the management of Ruby Company was naturally handy.

Therefore, when Guo Shouyun entered the headquarters of Ruby Company, he still saw a tight and orderly work scene, and there was no sign of panic because of the departure of Tim George, Christina White and other executives.

After nodding secretly in satisfaction, he strode into the elevator. Coming to the large conference room on the fifth floor, under the leadership of Eric Schmidt, all the executives of Ruby Company who are currently not traveling in San Francisco have been concentrated.

Under the scrutinizing gaze, Guo Shouyun walked to the center. A confident look quickly swept past everyone's faces.

"Sit down, everybody!"

The crowd took their seats one by one.

"Now that Tim George, Christina White and others have left, we congratulate them on finding more suitable jobs. Later, Eric Schmidt assumed the position of CEO of Ruby, and Peter Thiel assumed the position of president and chief operating officer. Marcos Levchen is the CEO of PayPal and Monroy Pahlavi is the CEO of Global Wealth Network. The PR director is Ross Brown. The remaining vacancies will be screened by the human resources department, reviewed and approved by the executive committee, and I will sign the appointment. ”
