Chapter 6 Naked Speech

As soon as Qiao Qiao heard Li Jinzhou's tone, he knew that it was not a good thing. Li Jinzhou said to let her go home and prepare, which means that she should go home to change and clean up, and during this period of at least 40 hours of continuous overtime, there will not even be time to let her go back for an hour or two. Although there are basically people working overtime 24 hours a day, and there are even showers and cloakrooms in the company, it is not as good as at home.

After hanging up the phone, Qiaoqiao took the spare key to the house to her grandparents and told her that she was going back to work overtime and would not come back at night. Grandma took the key and frowned and sighed: "Change your job, Qiaoqiao, how can you stand it as a girl if you stay up all night at every turn." ”

"Okay, okay, I know it myself." Jojo hugged his grandparents, "I'll try to take you to the airport if I can finish on Tuesday morning." ”

The car key was still in Lu Ze's hand, so he continued to play with the old man, and Qiaoqiao stopped a taxi and left.

Jojo cleaned up quickly, arriving at the office in about an hour and a half. So the elevator stopped, she first went to the regular work area on the seventeenth floor to get her things, but when Qiaoqiao swiped her card into the office area, the little beauty at the front desk greeted her silently with her eyes, raised the mug in her hand, and pointed to the pantry.

The relationship between the little beauty at the front desk and Qiaoqiao is good, because she feels that Qiaoqiao does not look at people with her nostrils like many arrogant people in the company, and looks down on the front desk security guards. Every time Qiaoqiao goes on a business trip, she always brings some supposers and delicious food to her and the security uncle, and every time she has something, she looks at your eyes seriously and politely and says thank you, instead of calling for granted. So she always remembers to share some small office movements with Qiaoqiao in time, after all, Qiaoqiao often travels on business and is not in the office.

Just when there was still time, Qiaoqiao also wanted to make a cup of coffee before going over, so he went with her to the pantry, the "sacred place of origin" that was rumored to be many in the office.

"I heard that someone is going to be ......" The little beauty who spoke in a low voice raised her hand and crossed her neck and gently made a decapitation pose.

Qiao Qiao frowned slightly, is it officially redundant?

The little beauty shook her head lightly and raised an index finger. She came to take over at noon today, and happened to meet someone who came to the seventeenth floor, and emptied Zhou Zhe's seat, packed all the things and materials, including personal belongings, and moved the desktop computer in his office to the conference room on the eighteenth floor.

"Just one?" Jojo asked strangely. Zhou Zhe is the colleague who jumped over from the social recruitment and has not yet passed the probation period.

The little beauty shrugged, and she saw so much.

Qiao Qiao was silent, and what Li Jinzhou asked her to go was the conference room on the eighteenth floor. Many people in the company have notebooks and desktops, and Zhou Zhe was not there on the weekend, but he moved Zhou Zhe's desktop to the conference room...... But what did you tell her to do?

After packing up her computer and things, Qiao Qiao went to the A301 conference room on the eighteenth floor, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw several company executives, including Li Jinzhou, HR and IT, as well as people from the compliance department...... She glanced up again, and it was the conference room with recording and surveillance.

Qiao Qiao's face suddenly became more solemn, everything related to compliance supervision is very troublesome, and the conference room in the company is also particular, and the conference room in the middle area of the two-story access control is mostly used for general meetings with customers. The meeting rooms in the office area are mostly internal meetings. And these meeting rooms with internal recording monitoring are confidential information or meetings that need to be monitored.

After Kevin, who was promoted to VP with Qiaoqiao, rushed into the conference room after stepping on the two-hour point, the deputy director of human resources stood up and closed the door, and took out a small safe, "Let's turn off your personal mobile phone and put it in." ”

After the mobile phone was confiscated, Li Jinzhou said in a deep voice: "The compliance supervision side found that Zhou Zhe violated the confidential information regulations, and now among the projects he is involved in, Qiao Qiao, a biomedical and high-tech company listed on the US stock market, you are more familiar with it, and you follow up." Kevin, you took over the Hong Kong stock project and the convertible bond project. Later, he will sort out all the projects and materials he has handled since he joined the company. IT cut off Zhou Zhe's VPN permissions, all the email records on the server were downloaded and backed up, and the data on the desktop was copied to Qiao Qiao and Kevin later. The human resource checks the relevant terms of the contract signed by the employee, prepares for dismissal, and considers whether to sue. Compliance preparation for regulatory filings, as well as a blacklist of practitioners. ”

Jojo and Kevin glanced at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes. At the same time, Qiaoqiao's heart sank, it was very troublesome to take over and follow up on other people's projects in a short period of time, and he had to go through all the information since he joined the company, and his mobile phone was confiscated, and it was estimated that he would not be able to go back to the airport, and there was no way to contact his family.

The atmosphere in the conference room was dull, tense and strict, and everyone immediately began to work, for more than ten hours in a row, even coffee and takeout were delivered by security guards. Until he went to work the next morning, Zhou Zhe couldn't enter the office area by swiping his card, and he was shocked to think that he had also suffered layoffs, so he was directly invited into the conference room by the security guard and confiscated the laptop in his hand.

Li Jinzhou and several senior executives went to the conference room where Zhou Zhe was having a stern conversation with compliance and manpower, leaving Qiaoqiao, Kevin, and the IT guy here to deal with the numbers in the laptop.

Seeing the bosses go out, Kevin couldn't help but lower his voice and complained to Jojo: "Fxxk, is Zhou Zhe crazy?" Did he think ChineseWall was a joke? Just to leak the money, he ruined his career, he knows! ”

Qiaoqiao, who stayed up all night until he was physically and mentally exhausted, pinched the bridge of his nose, poured another sip of coffee, and said in an almost inaudible voice: "He is under great financial pressure." She glanced up at the recordings and surveillance, motioning for Kevin to say less.

However, Kevin complained not only about this, he and Qiao Qiao had just been promoted, and they were about to start leading the project, but Zhou Zhe, who was not promoted, intervened in this matter, not to mention delaying the two of them for a month or two to follow up and solve it. Even though he has been promoted to the title, he still has to do a low-level job, or wipe people's buttocks, and stay up all night to work overtime, who doesn't have any resentment?

About two hours later, Zhou Zhe, with a haggard face and a languid expression, left the golden building gloomily with a cardboard box containing his personal belongings. Qiaoqiao, who was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window of the conference room, finally saw his lost back. She remembered that Zhou Zhe often said that opening his eyes is a mortgage and car loan, remembered how much he said about the cost of his two children, remembered that he said that his two sons had to be under pressure from school district housing, and remembered that he said that his wife was full-time and both of them needed subsidies if their families were not good.

However, not getting the promotion letter, and the financial pressure of being laid off with trepidation, finally crushed him and made him make such a choice.

"Sympathize with him?" Li Jinzhou stood beside Qiao Qiao and saw the complicated emotion in her eyes. Qiao Qiao shook his head slightly, this kind of affection is not necessary at work, and this is a choice he has made, he has to be responsible, not to mention that there are many people in this world who live more difficult than him. Li Jinzhou nodded approvingly at Qiao Qiao.

However, this overtime is a full 53 hours without sleep, 53 hours. This is not over, the day after tomorrow, Jojo will fly to the United States on a business trip to continue with these projects he has taken over. When Qiaoqiao, who was already sleepy, got his private mobile phone, there were about 60 text messages in it to remind him of missed calls during the shutdown period, most of which were calls from his grandparents. It's ten o'clock in the evening, and she has to wait until tomorrow morning to call her grandparents back.

The silent and tired Qiao Qiao followed the cleanup, and after flipping through the notification text message, he turned to a text message from Lu Ze.

"The car has been returned. Your grandparents have been safely returned to City A. Turn on the phone and call them back. ”

Qiao Qiao hurriedly edited the text message and replied: "Thank you, I'm really embarrassed that I can't answer the phone during the meeting, and I'm bothering you for your hard work." ”

Lu Ze's reply was very fast, "Hmm"

Qiao Qiao looked at the word "um" and smiled, although Lu Ze said little, he was actually quite thoughtful, grandparents and grandmothers didn't mention smartphones, they couldn't even send text messages, and the other party could still remember text messages to remind themselves.

"Hurry up and go back to rest, there will be a long flight for business the day after tomorrow." Li Jinzhou patted the back of Qiaoqiao's chair. However, Jojo paused slightly, as if making a decision, "Boss, can I talk to you?" ”

Li Jinzhou looked down at Qiao Qiao's solemn appearance in a little surprise, and agreed, "Go to my office on the seventeenth floor." ”

Walking into Li Jinzhou's floor-to-ceiling window independent office, bringing the door to the door, and sitting down face-to-face, Qiao Qiao took a deep breath to calm down, and said solemnly: "Boss, I want to resign." ”

Hearing this, Li Jinzhou didn't reply immediately, but he habitually picked up his pen and tapped lightly on the table. After pondering for a long time, he asked, "Where are you going?" Private? Hedge? Commercial firm? Or go to industry? ”

Qiaoqiao shook his head, "There is no next house." I just felt so tired that I wanted to take a break for a few months. So I will finish these projects in Zhou Zhe's hands, finish them and leave again, and the handover will be done. Theoretically, according to the contract, she only needs to give 30 days' notice before she can leave. But Li Jinzhou has always been very good to her, and she doesn't want to pick on her at the last moment of her resignation.

But Li Jinzhou frowned, and said sternly: "You don't want to play those gap years and go out to see the world naked, right?" Although the market is in a downturn right now, it is a very valuable experience for you to go through this economic environment during this recession in your career, and to go through the full cycle of the industry. I am here to lay off employees, and I will not cut you on the head. Quitting your job without a home is not good for your next job. ”

Jojo appreciated his consideration, but she was determined. She didn't want to consume her physical health like this anymore.

Hearing Qiao Qiao mention this reason, Li Jinzhou was also silent. He stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, thinking while looking down at the night view below, pacing for a long time, tugging at his tie, and finally speaking, but with conditions that Jojo didn't expect.
