Just when everyone thought that Cheng's overall situation had been decided, and Yu Hanming's control of the company was only one name away, Cheng Qixin suddenly threw out the news of "returning to the company after the year".

As a result, everyone began to talk again, speculating about the possibility of Cheng Qixin regaining power; And there are some people in the company who are neither Yu Hanming's henchmen, nor loyal to the Cheng family, and originally only planned to fish in troubled waters in the competition between the two factions, so far they feel the need to stand in line.

Not long after Cheng Qixin released the news, I don't know who gave Yu Hanming a suggestion, suggesting that he clean up the company's existing personnel before Cheng Qixin came back, so that even if Cheng Qixin came back, he would fall into a situation where no one was available.

The end of the year was supposed to be a good time for layoffs, so it took only two days for this recommendation to be implemented.

The notice of redundancy stipulates that each department in the company has at least two to three places to be laid off, and these places are drawn up by the department head and reported, and can be implemented after the approval of the upper level.

Since the notice was issued, almost all departments have been in a gloomy and bleak scene, because no one knows whether the layoff quota will fall on their heads.

Xu Guoqiang's sales department was also assigned two layoffs, and after receiving the notice, Xu Guoqiang only thought about it and wrote down two names on the paper.

These two people, one is a person who is not used to seeing Xu Guoqiang's actions on weekdays and often talks back to him in departmental meetings; The other is a middle-aged employee with a very honest personality, but because of this, his sales performance has been very poor.

After drawing up the candidates, Xu Guoqiang reported the names of these two people.

However, it is not known who revealed the news, and the middle-aged employee with an honest personality knew the fact that he was about to be laid off. He is indeed a very honest person, after knowing the news, he didn't dare to make a fuss in the company like other employees, but only dared to pity Xu Guoqiang, asking him to raise his noble hand and let himself go.

However, Xu Guoqiang told him that the company does not support idlers, and that he is already showing mercy if he can be tolerated until now with his performance.

The honest clerk was very disappointed with Xu Guoqiang's answer, he plucked up his courage and pleaded again: "Manager Xu, my child is just going to college, and my wife is at home full-time, if I lose this job, our whole family will be doomed!" So please be merciful and leave me, and I will definitely do a good job next year! ”

Xu Guoqiang heard this, and said impatiently: "If you don't lay off, you will lay off others!" Do you want me to leave you as a waste and lay off useful employees? ”

The honest clerk continued to plead: "Manager Xu, I really don't dare to do those things you asked me to do before!" But if you're willing to let me stay, I'll do it later! Everyone knows your relationship with Yu Dong, so you can't-"

"Shut up!" Xu Guoqiang shouted, "Okay! If you want to be cut, you just say such things to pour dirty water on me? The layoffs are set by the top of the company, and of course they will be laid off because you have a reason to be laid off! Don't say anything, go out and pack your things and get ready to fuck off! ”

Seeing that there was no hope of staying, the honest staff's brain suddenly collapsed, and tears of disappointment involuntarily welled up in his cloudy eyes.

"Manager Xu, you, you-" The honest clerk's head, which had been lowered, finally raised at this time, he took a deep look at Xu Guoqiang, who was sitting in the office chair reading the newspaper, gritted his teeth, and withdrew from the manager's office with a disgraced face.

Three days later, all the layoffs were finalized.

At 10 a.m., the board of directors convened, and when the meeting was over, the directors had discussed the layoffs, and the notice of layoffs would be officially issued.

On this day, all the employees had no intention of working at all, and from time to time someone sneaked to the door of the conference room to find out the news; And those employees who had already learned in advance that they would be laid off were listlessly packed their things and waited to leave.

However, to everyone's surprise, this time the board meeting lasted for a very long time, starting at 10 a.m. and ending at 1 p.m., and it was not over.

This unexpected occurrence has made everyone's minds come alive again, and some people have begun to speculate whether this layoff event may be canceled by the board of directors?

Another hour passed, and it wasn't until two o'clock in the afternoon that the door to the conference room finally opened.

At this time, a picture that made everyone fall through their glasses appeared in front of everyone.

The people gathered outside the conference room were surprised to see that the first person to come out of the conference room was neither a director nor a manager, but a small staff member in the sales department who had been obscure.

The fact that an ordinary employee would appear on such a serious and serious occasion as the board of directors cannot but give rise to all kinds of speculation and suspicion.

No one dared to come up and ask the clerk what was going on inside, and everyone just watched in silence as he came out and left.

As soon as the man left, everyone began to whisper -

"I know this guy, he's been in the sales department for ten years, he's always been an ordinary employee, and he's never been promoted."

"I also know him, I heard that two days ago he made a fuss in the manager's office of the sales department, and said a lot of bad things about Manager Xu."

"I heard that his performance is poor, because he will always shirk the tasks assigned to him by Manager Xu, I really don't know how this person did it!"

"The sales department, there will always be something unsightly-"

"But anyway, it's weird that he's on the board!"

"yes, yes, it's really weird!"

"Why did you say this meeting went so late? It's better to end it soon, and we might as well die early and be reborn—"

As people talked, they looked at the door of the conference room, expecting a second or third person to come out and announce the company's layoffs. Although no one really wants to leave, it is better to have one outcome than to hang it all the time like now.

However, the unexpected happened again, and no one in the conference room came out until the end of the day.

It was already late, and the doubts and uneasiness of the people waiting outside gradually dissipated.

Those who were originally facing the fate of being laid off suddenly had a glimmer of hope for the outcome of the meeting, while others had some worries in their hearts.

Who knows what fate awaits ordinary employees when the door of the conference room finally opens?
