After scolding for a while, Li Dong felt much better.
Seeing that Qi Yunna was in a daze, Li Dong said impatiently, "You're dismissed from your position as the city manager. You can't do it well anyway, so it's useless."
Qi Yunna felt a little upset when she heard that, but this was to be expected.
With such a big mistake in Mound City, dismissal was the easiest thing to do.
"The city manager is gone. You should hand over the car to the company. The house is a reward from the company. You can keep it.
"Also, I'll give you two options now. First, you submit your resignation letter …"
Without waiting for him to finish, Qi Yunna hurriedly said, "I choose the second option!"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes!" Qi Yunna quickly nodded.
Li Dong humphed. "Listen to me before you make your decision!
"Second, there are eight stores opening at the end of the month. There's a fifth-level store that lacks a store manager. If you're willing, you can go there and be a store manager."
The corner of Qi Yunna's mouth twitched. This time, she had suffered a huge setback.
A fifth-level store sounded nice, but it was actually a convenience store of tens of square meters.
From a city manager in charge of a city to a fifth-level store manager, it was simply embarrassing.
But Qi Yunna did not hesitate and immediately said, "I'll do it!"
"No regrets? Based on your current experience, it's not difficult to find a middle or high-level position in other industries or supermarkets.
I can not reveal your negligence. We can part on good terms. I won't hold up your future. Can you consider it? "
"No need. I'll go to a convenience store! I'll get up from where I fell. I was too arrogant this time. I believe that one day, I'll catch up again! "
Li Dong sneered and humphed. "Don't think that it's still the same as before. Far away was small and had few people. It was mostly luck that you were able to climb up.
"But now, there are close to fifty stores open Far away, and there are a lot of store managers. It won't be easy for you to catch up again, especially with your low starting point. The possibility of being promoted to city manager within two to three years is very small. The salary and benefits are worlds apart from before. Maybe after a year, your salary won't even be as much as a month's salary. Are you still willing? "
"I'm willing!"
Qi Yunna's answer was very firm. She had only tripped this time, and there was nothing wrong with her brain.
At this time, Li Dong still gave her the leeway to choose, which meant that he had not given up on her. Far away, as long as Li Dong did not give up, she would have a day to rise again.
But if he left now, not only would he lose Li Dong's trust, it wouldn't be easy to start anew.
She was lucky to be the city manager, but other companies might not recognize it. Since the result was the same, why not stay Far Away?
In any case, he was a store manager. At least it was better than doing nothing.
Li Dong snorted, "Since you're willing, then I won't say anything else."
"Don't go back to Mouteng today. You have to attend the company meeting tomorrow. Also, when you get back to Mound City, you can go back to Pingchuan to take up your post. "
"Let's go back to Great Plains …"
Qi Yunna murmured. Her heart was full of bitterness.
When the company rewarded her with a house, Li Dong said this, saying that she would return to Pingchuan sooner or later.
At that time, she was full of expectations. She could even imagine the result of returning to Pingchuan. At the very least, she would be the city manager of Pingchuan, or even the regional manager. Otherwise, she might even be the director.
But now?
She left Mouteng in defeat and returned in a sorry state. She had lost all her face.
Qi Yunna sighed in her heart and asked, "What about Mouteng?"
Li Dong understood what she meant and said plainly, "Guo Mingzhi will take over as the city manager."
Qi Yunna's heart was even more bitter. She knew this would be the result.
Not only was Guo Mingzhi an old acquaintance of hers, but he was also her old subordinate. Back when they were in Qingyang, they were both store managers in the same batch.
When she was the city manager, she was proud of her success. Although Guo Mingzhi became the store manager of Mouteng City, he was still below her.
Now, six of the seven stores in Mouteng had problems. Only Guo Mingzhi was still standing. It would be strange if Guo Mingzhi did not get promoted at this time.
This made Qi Yunna even more embarrassed. She had suffered a setback, and Guo Mingzhi had gotten lucky. She felt so wronged.
Li Dong was too lazy to say more. He waved his hand and said, "Go. Don't reveal this for now. We'll talk about it after the meeting tomorrow."
Qi Yunna nodded. She naturally knew that she could not reveal anything at this time.
Li Dong told her in advance not only to give her a heads-up, but also because he trusted her.
Without saying anything more, Qi Yunna slowly walked out of the office.
When she entered the office, she was still full of ambition. When she walked out, everything was the same, but the people had changed. Qi Yunna felt strange.
…
Not long after Qi Yunna left, Sun Tao and Wang Yue entered the office together.
Sun Tao went straight to the point and said, "General Manager Li, do you really want to make a move?"
"What do you think?"
Sun Tao frowned and said, "Why don't we settle it privately? Let them spit out what they have taken and voluntarily resign. That would be better. Not only would it reduce losses, but it would also make everyone feel that the company is lenient … "
"I don't need leniency! I've been lenient enough! Far Away's treatment is worse than other companies'? Ask yourself honestly, where did Far Away let them down? They chose to betray us, so don't blame me for being ruthless! "
Li Dong snorted. Seeing that Sun Tao was about to speak, he interrupted, "I've already decided. The materials have already been submitted to the Economic Investigation Department!"
Sun Tao heard this and sighed. He didn't say anything else.
Among the people taken down this time, many of them were his old acquaintances. Some were even his old subordinates.
In the beginning, when he suddenly rose to a high position Far Away, Far Away was short of people. He recruited many of his old friends and subordinates. He originally thought that he was giving them a bright future. Who knew that they would end up like this?
Sun Tao didn't say anything, but Wang Yue continued, "General Manager Li, taking down so many people at once might be a little unstable. Especially over at Mound City, taking down all six store managers … "
"Don't worry, there's some unrest over at Mound City. It's not a big deal. Pingchuan only needs to take down Cao Chun. Far Away doesn't lack a store manager. There are plenty of people to take over! "
"But now we're still competing with other supermarkets. Sea View is our bridgehead. If anything goes wrong …"
Li Dong glanced at her and frowned. "So you mean to let Cao Chun go?"
"General Manager Li misunderstood." Wang Yue smiled. "I've heard about General Manager Li's decision on Manager Qi. What I'm saying is, can Manager Qi take over Cao Chun's store manager position?"
Li Dong raised his eyebrows and said unhappily, "No! This time, Qi Yunna has to bear a lot of responsibility. I didn't fire her because of our old relationship. If she continues to be the secondary store manager, won't everyone follow her example? "
A secondary store manager was only one step away from the City Manager position. Li Dong would be slapping his own face.
He was already lenient enough with Qi Yunna. If he was more lenient, Sun Tao might not be happy.
Why did your people go easy on her while my people were sent to jail?
Li Dong didn't want to talk about this anymore. He changed the topic. "What did the Southern Suburbs say?"
"We're still negotiating. I think it's very likely that they'll give in. We're also negotiating with Nanhu, but I think it's best to settle this as soon as possible. If we drag this on, it'll be hard to explain to Nanhu. "
"This is simple. If we can't get the distribution center, we'll talk about opening stores. It's almost the end of the year. Next year's target will be a few cities in Nanhu. It'll be easier to get in touch with them in the future. "
Wang Yue heaved a sigh of relief. This was for the best. With an investment, the Nanhu government would be easier to deal with.
Otherwise, after such a long negotiation, the Nanhu government would definitely be unhappy if they didn't get anything out of it. It would be troublesome to deal with them in the future.
…
December 9th, Far Away's company meeting began.
The location of the meeting was not the Global Building, but the conference room of Tianhu Hotel.
The headquarters of the Global Building was becoming more and more inadequate. The conference room of a few dozen square meters could not hold so many people.
Currently, there were close to 50 store managers in Distance. Including the supervisors, managers, and directors of the other departments, there were more than 100 people who were qualified to attend the meeting.
When Li Dong arrived, most of them were already there.
Since Li Dong made an example out of the last meeting, not many dared to be late. Unless they had something important to do or couldn't make it back from a business trip, everyone else who could come was here.
Seeing Li Dong go up to the rostrum, everyone quieted down.
Li Dong didn't waste any time. When everyone quieted down, he said, "Today, I called everyone here to announce a few decisions."
Everyone listened attentively.
Li Dong wasn't in a hurry. He continued, "But before I announce the decisions, there's something else I need to do."
"Captain Chen, come in."
As soon as Li Dong finished speaking, more than ten police officers walked in from outside the conference room. The leader was a plain-clothed man in his forties.
Li Dong nodded at him and said, "You can arrest them now."
As soon as he said that, the conference room was in an uproar.
Li Dong shouted, "Quiet!"
The conference room became quieter, but when they saw the people around them being brought out by the police, they couldn't help but make a ruckus.
The few people who were arrested were even more flustered. "General Manager Li, what are you doing?!"
"General Manager Li, I was wrong. I admit my mistake. Give me a chance!"
"Why are you arresting me? Can the police arrest people as they please?"
"Li Dong, you're too cruel! Far Away, I've worked hard even if I don't have any credit. You can't do this! "
"…"
Li Dong stood on the stage in silence. Looking at the crowd, he couldn't understand what he was feeling.
Other than those who were talking and panicking, there were also those who were silent.
For example, Liu Hai, the manager of the logistics department. When the police came in, he knew that something had happened.
Liu Hai was very honest. When the police arrested him, he didn't resist, but kept his head down.
Li Dong glanced at him and sighed in his heart.
Liu Hai could be said to be a veteran of Far Away. When Dongping opened, Liu Hai was the manager of the logistics department.
Later, Far Away continued to expand, and Li Dong didn't miss out on his benefits. He directly became the manager of Far Away's logistics department.
Speaking of ability, Liu Hai's ability wasn't very strong.
However, Li Dong had always thought that everyone could share wealth and wealth, so he gave this fat position to him. Who knew that the biggest culprit this time was Liu Hai.
The corruption in Mound City could be said to be caused by Liu Hai.
Other than Liu Hai, five store managers in Mound City were also arrested this time. The other one temporarily escaped because he took up his post late.
As for Pingchuan, Cao Chun naturally couldn't escape.
At this moment, Cao Chun was in a daze and couldn't speak at all.
Other than these people, a manager of the finance department, the leader of the inspection team, and a deputy manager of the logistics department were all arrested.
There were ten people, including managers, deputy managers, supervisors, and store managers of different levels.
It could be said that this time, Li Dong was really ruthless. He got rid of almost one-tenth of the middle and senior management in one go.
Seeing these people being captured, the rest of the people were terrified and trembling.
Too ruthless!
The business world wasn't like the government. Normally, people wouldn't make such a big deal out of it, let alone arrest people directly, and so many at once.
Compared to the previous expulsion, this was a real massacre.
Everyone quieted down. When they looked at Li Dong again, there was only fear in their eyes, not respect.
