Chapter 434: Producer Corruption (Subscription Requested)
What really happened to the branch?
This question is not only Gu Miao very curious, but also Ma Kui, as the commissioner of the headquarters.
When he arrived in Neon on a plane and saw Seto, the president of Manpo (Neon) who came to pick him up at the airport, he couldn't help but ask.
"President Seto!"
"I'll talk about the greetings later.,Can you tell me.,What difficulties did the animation "Original Essence ιγ¨γͺγγη²Ύιpatriarch γγεη½γγγ" encountered?"
"It's a long story."
Hearing this, Seto, who had just opened the car door and bowed, instantly said with a bitter face: "Vice President Ma, please get in the car, and I'll tell you on the way back to the hotel." β
Let's go!
It seems that the problem is really not small.
From Seto's extremely ugly expression, Ma Kui, who realized that this matter was probably not so simple, nodded and got into the business car arranged by Seto.
On the way out of Kansai International Airport and on the way to the hotel, Seto, who was in the same car, explained the cause and effect to Makui.
It's not that simple.
At the beginning of this year, the Wanbao Neon Branch, under the instruction of the great leader Gu Sanshui, tried to produce an animation with the theme of reincarnation adventure in another world.
Subsequently, the production committee of the animation "Original Essence Chief", "Primordial Essence Chief", "Confession Confession" was established.
Due to the neon division of Wanbao Animation, it also needs to produce projects such as the third season of "Sailor Moon" and the second season of "Three Sisters of the South Family", and the manpower is not very sufficient.
Therefore, during the production process of the animation "Elf at the beginning of the game, I was confessed by the elf patriarch", a lot of outsourcing production companies were hired.
In simple terms.
The Wanbao Neon Division has multiple projects in hand at the same time, and it can't divide too much manpower, so it chooses to partially outsource.
Seto was very busy as the branch president, so he looked for a veteran producer for the anime "Initial Elf" from within the company.
OKοΌ
By the time things got to this point, everything went smoothly with the animation, and there were no problems.
What's the problem?
The problem lies in the "final payment" settlement of the outsourcing team, as well as the corruption and embezzlement of public funds by the producer.
tomato
The producer informed the outsourcing team that the quality of the outsourced part of the finished film was unqualified and the final payment could not be settled.
Meanwhile.
On the books, he collaborated with the company's finance to make a false account of "paying the final payment of outsourcing", and embezzled about 55 million yen.
Okay!
The outsourced production company did not receive the money, and was accused of substandard production and needed to be redone. They quit and came to Seto to ask for money.
Seto checked the accounts and found that the balance had already been settled. Inexplicably, how did he become a debtor?
What happened in early April.
It was only near the end of April that Seto unearthed evidence of financial incorruptibility and corruption by the producer. But at this time, these two people had long since disappeared.
55,000,000 yen!
Although the yen continues to depreciate, this is not a small amount. When this happened, Seto, as the president of the branch, could not escape the blame.
If these two people can be captured as soon as possible and the funding gap can be filled, maybe the headquarters will be able to spare his life for the sake of his past achievements.
As a result, Seto, who was worried about being held accountable by the headquarters, chose to hide it from the headquarters. He planned to wait for these two people to be caught, and then apply to the headquarters to "make up for the merits".
"Hutu!"
After Ma Kui learned the truth of the matter, he couldn't help but scold: "Just because I was afraid of being held accountable, I chose to hide it?" β
"Intimate Marseille!"
"You...... Alas, forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Ma Kui looked at Seto's apologetic expression, waved his hand and said, "Did those two people catch them?" β
"Don't tell me, it's been almost a week, and you haven't found the whereabouts of those two people?"
"Someone has found it."
Seto sighed and said, "But that money has been squandered, and it will be difficult to recover it." β
Yes? Is that okay too?
Ma Qui wondered: "No, he squandered the purchased assets normally, we can apply for freezing and compensation, right?" β
"He's used it to pay off his gambling debts."
Seto smiled bitterly and said, "The other party is a local social vitality group, a gray organization that wanders on the edge of the law. β
Scald!
It's outrageous, it's outrageous, it's outrageous!
Ma Kui thought of a thousand reasons for embezzlement and embezzlement. But I never thought that this person embezzled public funds to repay gambling debts?
It's broken!
The money fell into the hands of the social vitality group, and it is difficult or even impossible to recover it.
"Prepare yourself."
Ma Kui sighed and said: "After all, you are the president, and you have not fulfilled your supervisory responsibilities, resulting in major financial losses for the company......"
"Hi Yin! I understand! β
With the arrival of Ma Kui, Seto knew that sooner or later he would not be able to hide it. For the sake of today's plan, only taking the initiative to submit a resignation can be considered decent.
In fact.
When Ma Kui's flight landed at Kansai International Airport, Seto's resignation email had already been sent to Gu Miao's mailbox.
In the email, in addition to a complete description of the whole story, Seto also expressed his sincere apologies to Mr. Gu and took the initiative to apply for resignation as the president of the Manbao Neon branch.
β¦β¦
Gu Miao read the email.
He really didn't expect that when he was busy preparing for the wedding, the neon branch, which was thousands of miles away, would actually make such a big mess.
It was quite unexpected.
As for the fact that Seto failed to recover the money at the end of the incident, which led to heavy losses for the company, he would be lying if he said that he was not angry.
That's 55 million yen!
The money that Wanbao tightened his belt and squeezed out to make animations was actually misappropriated to pay off gambling debts? Who is not angry about this?
Anger can be angry......
Now that the incident has happened, the money is sure that it will not be recovered. In addition to sulking in a person's life, the most important thing to consider is how to deal with the aftermath.
First of all.
Seto was indeed negligent in his duties, and Gu Miao was very dissatisfied with his performance. But the current mistakes do not erase his previous merits.
You don't have to resign.
Demoted one or two levels, from the branch president to a production director or producer, may be more suitable than firing him.
The second is the animation "The Elf at the Beginning of the Beginning, I Was Confessed by the Elf Patriarch" project, which cannot be affected by this to delay the broadcast progress.
Proceed as originally planned.
Once the premiere date is decided, you can do whatever you want, and you can't be stumped by 55 million yen.
It's a big deal that the headquarters allocates money!
Finally, there is this incident, which has a terrible impact. Wanbao Animation, both the headquarters and the branches, need to learn a lesson to avoid similar incidents from happening again.
As for the producer......
Hehe!
Whose money is it not okay to embezzle? How dare you embezzle Gu Miao's money? Love gambling, don't you? He can't cure the black club of money lending and debt collection, and he can't cure this little deflated three rotten gamblers?
Let's go to prison honestly.
Although 55 million yen is not much, theoretically it is only enough to shoot two or three episodes of anime. But it's not a question of more money and less money, it's a matter of attitude.
You must make an example of the chickens!
