The meeting room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
No one dared to speak at this time. Li Dong's prestige was not built in a day or two.
He was the founder of Faraway, the big boss of the group, and also a well-known grassroots rich generation in the country.
His prestige was accumulated over a long period of time, and he almost never left the company for two years.
In the past two years, as long as there were no accidents and he was not on a business trip, everyone could see Li Dong in the company almost every day. This kind of conscientious and dedicated founder was also the most prestigious among all the bosses.
At this time, when Li Dong was angry, Sun Tao was not around, and Shen Qian did not say anything, no one dared to talk back.
Li Dong snorted when he saw this. He picked up the teacup and drank some water. After a while, he said, "I won't talk about the past. This food safety incident has given me a wake-up call. Now, I'll talk about how to deal with it."
"First, the manager of the Longhua store, Liu Yuan, the purchasing manager, logistics manager, food department director, and quality inspection director of the Longhua store are all fired."
"General Manager Li …" Wang Yue's lips moved, and there was some hesitation on her face.
Li Dong chuckled and said, "General Manager Wang, if you have any opinions, just say it."
"General Manager Li, isn't it too harsh?" Wang Yue hesitated for a moment and said it.
Li Dong's actions almost wiped out the top management of the Longhua store.
Moreover, some people were not confirmed to be related to this incident. Li Dong did not continue to investigate further and directly fired all of them. In Wang Yue's opinion, it was too unreasonable.
Li Dong smiled and said, "Harsh? General Manager Wang, do you think I am harsh? Do you know? If this incident was not handled in time, if someone died, if the PR was not in place, and the media reported on it, do you know what the consequences would be? "
"If you don't know, then let me tell you!"
"Faraway Supermarket's reputation plummeted. Hundreds of stores may be empty overnight! Without Faraway Supermarket, Faraway Group is a joke. Most of the group has collapsed! When that time comes, will you still be able to sit here enjoying the air conditioner and receive a high salary? If I were strict, I would have sent them to the police station instead of firing them! "
Li Dong snorted and continued, "Also, get Liu Yuan and the rest to spit out the money they've swallowed. I don't want to argue with them now, but they shouldn't think that they can get away scot-free after taking my money. Let them decide if they want to hand it over or not! Don't force me to be ruthless! "
Hearing this, Wang Yue sighed softly and nodded without saying anything.
"Secondly, issue a document. The Longhua branch will be downgraded from today."
"Demote!"
This time, Wang Yue really couldn't sit still. She got up and tried to persuade him, "General Manager Li, there's no need to demote them, right? The Longhua branch is our only first-tier branch Far away. If we downgrade the Longhua branch, the impact will be too great. There were more than 300 employees in the Longhua branch. Once the branch was downgraded, their salaries would also be reduced. It's easy to increase their salaries, but it will be troublesome to reduce their salaries. At this juncture, I think we should keep a low profile. Otherwise, if the employees cause a ruckus, it will be a huge blow to our supermarket's reputation. "
After Wang Yue finished speaking, the other directors couldn't sit still and quickly tried to persuade her.
Once the Longhua Store was downgraded, it would affect everything. It wouldn't just affect one store, but the entire Faraway Store's system.
From everyone's point of view, the supermarket was the foundation of the corporation.
Once the foundation was shaken, everything would be useless. Regardless of whether it was for the corporation or for themselves, the Longhua branch could not be downgraded.
Li Dong waited for them to finish speaking before saying, "Why can't we downgrade it? The Longhua branch has always been the only first-tier branch Far away. Both the employees and the manager have enjoyed superior treatment. But they did not fulfill their role as the leader and did not set an example! What's the point of keeping such a first-tier branch? Should we leave it as an example to the other stores? Learn from their corruption and independence? "
Also, in the past three months, the Longhua branch's performance has been declining. Do you really think I am an idiot? During the most prosperous period of the supermarket industry, the performance did not increase but fell instead. What are the employees and managers doing?
Am I, Li Dong, bad to my employees?
Far away branch's treatment is bad?
Are you trying to fool me? Do you think I am an idiot?
If you want to do it, then do it. If not, then get lost!
I have money, but why should I pay these people for nothing? You have to give something in order to get something in return. If you don't give something, you want something in return? Dream on! "
When Li Dong finished speaking, his voice echoed in the meeting room.
Everyone's faces turned pale. They knew that Li Dong was really angry, but they did not know how to calm his anger.
After a while, Shen Qian, who had been quiet, said slowly, "General Manager Li, I think it is feasible to downgrade the branch. But let's start from the management level. The treatment of the employees at the bottom level will not change. More than half of the management level in Longhua is gone. There should not be much resistance. If the management is done well, the employees will be passive. I believe they will do well. "
The others heard and quickly nodded in agreement.
If it was only a downgrade of the management level, then the impact would not be that big.
They were afraid that the hundreds of employees would cause a scene. As for the remaining management level, everyone was feeling insecure.
It was just a downgrade, and the basic salary would be reduced. Just like what Shen Qian said, there should not be much resistance.
This way, they could intimidate others and also let Li Dong vent his anger. It was the best of both worlds.
Everyone said so, including Shen Qian and Qin Hai. Li Dong took a deep breath and thought for a while before saying, "Alright, let's do that for now. However, this is the first time. If there's a next time, I won't tolerate it!"
"Phew!"
Li Dong changed his mind, and everyone in the meeting room heaved a sigh of relief.
However, Li Dong's decision was not over yet.
Just when everyone was relieved, Li Dong narrowed his eyes and continued, "Third …"
Hearing that there was a third, everyone's face was about to drip with bitterness.
The first two conditions were enough to kill them. Now there was a third condition. How could they live?
Although they were helpless, they could only continue listening.
"Third, from today onwards, the company will transfer the elites to the Ministry of Supervision. In the next few months, Director Zhou will lead the team to enter all the level three and above stores in Faraway Supermarket. The other companies should not think that you are safe. The Ministry of Supervision will check on you from time to time. Nothing can be accomplished without rules. Everyone should know what you are doing. I hope that during the Annual Lunar New Year, there will not be a few of you missing. "
Qin Hai, Wu Shengnan, and the rest were all excited. The others also sat up straight.
Zhou Haidong was Li Dong's direct subordinate. With him leading the team, if there was a problem, there was no way to fool them.
Li Dong warned them in advance. If they were to fall into the hands of Zhou Haidong again, firing them would be a light punishment.
After saying this, Li Dong waved his hand and said, "Alright, that's all for now. Go back and do a self-inspection. I don't want this food safety incident to happen again. "
…
When everyone had left, Li Dong saw that Wang Yue was still there. He could not help but ask, "CEO Wang, do you have something to say to me?"
Wang Yue nodded lightly.
Li Dong smiled and said, "Tell me, what is it?"
Wang Yue bit her lip and thought for a while. "General Manager Li, this time, I did not manage Faraway well. I have an idea, and I want to tell you. "
"Go ahead."
"Isn't the company developing the Huadong region's market? I want to ask for a transfer to develop the market. I'm actually not very proficient in management. I prefer the sense of development … "
Wang Yue said a lot, but the main theme was actually to ask for a transfer.
It could be considered as a demotion, but it could also be considered as atonement.
In this milk incident, Wang Yue really could not shirk the leadership responsibility, and she was actually holding back her anger.
Sun Tao was the group's vice president. She had no objection to this. Sun Tao was originally more senior than her, so it was fine that he was riding on her head.
But what about Shen Qian?
Alright, let's not talk about Shen Qian, because Shen Qian had a big background, and she could not compare.
But Qin Hai and Wu Shengnan!
These two people actually became the subsidiary's general managers, and she was actually just an executive general manager.
In the past, these people were all her subordinates. Now, these people actually rode on her head. How could Wang Yue be reconciled to this?
In the past, they were not together. Now, the subsidiary and the group's headquarters were all in the Faraway Building.
They would see each other frequently, and Wang Yue could not afford to lose face.
It just so happened that the company wanted to expand into the market. Wang Yue made up her mind, or she might as well apply for a transfer!
Expanding into the Huadong market was the main strategic layout of Faraway Supermarket in the next few years. Once she made great contributions in this area, when she returned to Faraway, she would most likely be the group's vice president!
Even if she did not, the position of Faraway Supermarket's general manager would definitely be in her pocket.
At that time, she could finally hold her head high, and not be like now, carrying the pressure and punishment on her. The psychological pressure was too great.
Li Dong knocked on the table for a long time without saying anything.
Just when Wang Yue was a little disappointed, Li Dong slowly said, "CEO Wang, since you have applied for a transfer, I have a few words to say first. You can decide whether to apply for a transfer after listening to it."
Wang Yue quickly nodded.
"The supermarket's strategy for the next few years is to place the Huadong region, but let me tell you this, I have some other plans in mind. There should not be too many changes in the Huadong region, but the support that the group can provide should not be too much. Whether it is in terms of funds or manpower, it may not be as abundant as you think. Now in the Huadong region, hundreds of companies are competing. Huarun, Bailian, Suguo … and even foreign Wal-Mart, Carrefour … These companies are all thinking of the Huadong region. If you go there alone, the possibility of hitting a wall is very high. Once you leave Jiangbei, I won't be able to give you much support. You might be stuck in this quagmire for a few years. During this period, Faraway Land will definitely change with each passing day. When you come back, some things will be uncertain. "
Wang Yue's face showed a hint of struggle. She understood what Li Dong meant.
But should she just give up like this?
Could it be that he was going to watch others flaunt their prowess while he was overshadowed?
Was she willing?
Of course not!
In just a few years, when she returned with the glory of successfully opening up the Huadong market, she would be able to completely establish a foothold in Far away!
At that time, even Sun Tao would not be able to cover up her brilliance.
There were only a few gambles in life. Since she had chosen this path, she should not regret it. She should not be afraid of suffering. Even if the road ahead was densely covered with thorns, it could not stop her.
Wang Yue took a few deep breaths and finally said firmly, "General Manager Li, I have decided!
I want to leave Jiangbei! "
"No regrets?"
"No regrets!" Wang Yue nodded heavily.
Li Dong looked at her deeply. This was the first time he noticed Wang Yue's existence.
In the past, because of Sun Tao, Shen Qian, and others, he had always ignored this deputy general manager that he had poached with a high salary.
In addition, Wang Yue's presence in Far away had been relatively low. Her brilliance was also covered by others.
But until today, until now, Li Dong finally understood her.
This was a fierce general who was unwilling to be under others. Regardless of whether she succeeded or failed in opening up the Huadong market, Li Dong felt that she was qualified!
Li Dong closed his eyes and pondered for a moment. After a while, he nodded and said, "Okay! I agree! "
"Thank you, General Manager Li!"
Wang Yue thanked him with red eyes. This trip could only succeed. Failure was not an option.
Once they were defeated in Huadong, Wang Yue would not have the face to stay in Far away.
