“Oh, right. This recording captures my conversation with him,” Fang Yuan stated calmly, producing yet another USB flash drive. “It documented his admission of guilt for the crimes he committed. He deserves a more extended sentence…”
“You, you deceitful girl! How dare you deceive me? Release me. You’ve apprehended the wrong person. I’m innocent…”
“Don’t pay attention to this girl’s nonsense. I’m innocent. I haven’t engaged in any illegal activities…”
“Officer, let go of me. Someone might witness this.”
“Release me; I’ve been wrongly accused…”
Zhao Quan’s protests faded as he was led away.
Wang Ning, stationed at the office door, observed the police escort Zhao Quan. His gaze towards Fang Yuan held a mix of awe and reverence, as if she were a deity.
Zhao Quan, the company’s “big villain,” held a prominent position and had committed numerous misdeeds. What method had Fang Yuan employed to hand him over to the police?
“Instruct immediately that no one in the company is allowed to disclose Zhao Quan’s arrest. Tomorrow promises to be quite the spectacle!”
Fang Yuan, with an air of confidence, met Wang Ning’s eyes. “Yes,” he stammered, convinced that there was nothing President Fang couldn’t accomplish. This girl was truly extraordinary.
With Zhao Quan’s issue settled, Fang Yuan retrieved her phone and directed, [Make sure no one in the company purchases the villas and shops Fang Liguo hung up.]
[Yes, I’ll issue the order promptly!]
Fang Yuan’s eyes darkened. She still had a surprise in store for them.
At Cheng Ming Group’s headquarters, upon receiving the news, Ruan Nuo promptly knocked on Cheng Mohan’s office door and reported, “Boss, there’s new activity at the clothing company.”
Cheng Mohan, maintaining his indifferent expression, looked up. “Who is it this time?” Lately, that small company seemed to stir up trouble every other day. He heard that the person in charge was a young lady.
“Zhao Quan, sent by the headquarters, revealed,” Ruan Nuo disclosed truthfully. “He established an illicit betting website and encouraged company employees to place bets. To make money, these employees persuaded their relatives and friends to invest, resulting in substantial losses for them…” Cheng Mohan’s gaze intensified.
“He also used reprehensible tactics to exploit female employees. More than one. He even recorded video threats.”
“He coerced and enticed these employees to betray the company with him. Manager Jia, the head of the procurement department, the team leader of the production line, and the warehouse manager were all victimized.”
“By reselling the company’s waste alone, he raked in over 700,000 yuan annually. He even inflated expenses for a year…”
“He once incited his employees to clandestinely sell the company’s goods. He used subpar fabric to manufacture clothes and sold them under the company’s brand. Most of the money he earned ended up in his pocket…”
“Recently, he even sold the company’s design drafts to our rival company, Charm Cloth, attempting to frame the company’s designer…”
“Though he’s been apprehended, the company is grappling with an issue…” Upon hearing this, Cheng Mohan inquired in a subdued tone, “What issue?” “We’re launching new products tomorrow. Out of the 33 models, 26 were sold to Charm Cloth by Zhao Quan. Charm Cloth has already produced and released the finished products, which are already in the market today. In other words, there are tens of millions of finished products in our warehouse that can’t be sold.” Ruan Nuo lowered his head, expressing deep regret.
While Zhao Quan was the cause of everything, the company’s losses were now immeasurable in terms of more than just money.
“What’s the company’s management response?” Cheng Mohan asked.
“The company is powerless. However, during the meeting, that young lady confidently declared that she has a solution. Not only will the company avoid financial losses and preserve its reputation, but she can also help generate a profit.”
To be frank, Ruan Nuo harbored skepticism about the young lady’s assurances. On the contrary, Cheng Mohan eagerly anticipated her solution. This young lady had consistently delivered surprises since assuming a business role.
“I heard she entered through connections?” Cheng Mohan inquired nonchalantly.
Ruan Nuo didn’t expect his boss to show interest in such a trivial detail. Hastily, he lowered his head and replied, “Yes, and she leveraged your family’s contacts.”
Cheng Mohan raised an eyebrow, prompting Ruan Nuo to clarify, “It’s someone appointed by Old Master Cheng…”
Cheng Mohan: “Fang?”
“Yes!”
“…” Cheng Mohan ruminated and recalled a distant relative surnamed Fang in his family. Could it be that she possessed exceptional management skills and was recruited by his father?
“Her education?”
“High school…” Ruan Nuo, fearing his boss might doubt the girl’s capabilities, swiftly added, “But her competence is evident to everyone, and she’s devoted to the company…”
Consider Zhao Quan, for instance. He deceived everyone, concocting fraudulent accounts to mislead the headquarters. The boss, engrossed in work, couldn’t micromanage every subsidiary. Trusting Zhao Quan, he got away with it. Thankfully, the new President Fang discerned his vulnerabilities. Otherwise, the company would have suffered significant losses!
“Have you settled on the gift?” Cheng Mohan inquired..
