Chapter 1301: Chapter 1301: I’m Honestly Sick of It

Right now, everyone in Changping Group has received this email.

Zhao Dingye’s assistant has gotten it too.

But he doesn’t dare come in to ask if it’s true.

He’s afraid that if he comes in just as Zhao Dingye is at the peak of his fury, he’ll end up getting scapegoated.

Talk about getting wronged for nothing.

The assistant doesn’t dare move.

Meanwhile, the other departments in the company, relying on the fact that they’re not in front of Zhao Dingye, start secretly chatting.

After all, Zhao Dingye isn’t around.

And they’re not worried anymore about someone passing word to Zhao Dingye.

Father and son Zhao Dingye and Zhao Guqing have both been kicked out of the company.

They don’t have a shred of power left—what can they possibly do to them now?

This really is something worth celebrating nationwide.

The employees are all overjoyed.

"Why didn’t President Zhao issue this order earlier?" They’re talking about Zhao Gushen.

"The way that father and son strutted around the company, acting all high and mighty, still thinking they were so capable and full of tricks, I was honestly sick to death of it."

"Ever since they took over the company, our year-end bonuses have been shrinking year by year. I’ve got classmates in Changping and Changlin, and the year-end bonuses and various benefits at those two companies are basically the same."

Changlin is a subsidiary after all, yet it still manages to stay on par with Changping.

You have to admit that’s thanks to Zhao Dingli’s ability.

After all, even if Changlin’s performance is good, the number of restaurants it owns is limited.

There’s no way it can compare to the headquarters of Changping Group.

But even so, he actually managed to keep things on par.

You could say Zhao Dingli is pretty damn impressive.

But Changyi doesn’t cut it.

Back when Zhao Dingli was still around, their year-end bonuses and various benefits were also quite generous.

So they never envied the people at headquarters.

But ever since Zhao Dingye took over, not only have the bonuses gone down year by year.

The company’s internal rules have gotten stricter and stricter.

Especially for departments like Marketing that depend on performance—the difficulty of hitting their targets keeps going up.

It’s getting harder and harder to earn commissions.

They even feel that some of the rules are outright unreasonable, basically just there to avoid paying out that reward.

It’s just that, within Changyi, they’re still middling—worse than the top, better than the bottom.

They can’t compare to Changping and Changlin, but they’re still a bit better than some other companies.

These days it’s not that easy to get into a big company, and everyone’s been working here for so many years.

A lot of the benefits are calculated based on how long you’ve been with the company.

To jump ship and start over from zero again, they’re really not willing.

So they can only keep complaining while gritting their teeth and staying on.

"Aren’t you afraid they’ll bring in someone even worse?"

"Nah, that’s impossible. For President Zhao to kick that father and son out, it means he’s already had it with their incompetence. There’s no way he’d bring in someone even lamer than them."

"Even if there are all sorts of internal family struggles and conflicts in the mix, that doesn’t contradict the fact that this father and son are useless. This way, he can hit them where it hurts, and also kick the incompetent ones out of the company. For President Zhao, that’s killing two birds with one stone."

"So whoever comes in next is definitely going to be stronger than those two. After all, this is business. President Zhao wants the company to do well. Watching that father and son wreck the company like this, there’s no way he’d casually assign some clueless royal relative again. Changping definitely still cares about the company; they can’t afford to let it get trashed."

People start companies to make money, not to keep idle family members on the payroll.

Besides, if you really want to keep freeloaders, you can just stick them in some empty, made-up position and let them sit there.

What’s scary is another pair like Zhao Dingye and his son—no ability, but they just love bossing people around.

Wouldn’t that just finish wrecking the company?

Everyone bounces their thoughts off each other and feel that this analysis makes sense.

In Zhao Dingye’s office, Zhao Guqing sees that Zhao Dingye has actually started trembling.

Zhao Guqing can’t help wondering, is Zhao Dingye that pissed off?

What did he see that made him this furious?

Could it be because he was dismissed, and that’s what set him off like this?

But Zhao Guqing feels that doesn’t quite add up.

Just now, when Zhao Dingye found out that Zhao Guqing had been dismissed, wasn’t he already very angry?

But compared to now, that earlier anger was nothing.

Just when Zhao Guqing is feeling puzzled, Zhao Dingye suddenly shoots to his feet.

"Come on, we’re going back to the old house." Zhao Dingye says in a low voice. "I want to ask those two elders what exactly Zhao Gushen thinks he’s doing."

Zhao Guqing is stunned that Zhao Dingye would actually go to the two elders himself over his situation.

This really is his biological dad!

Zhao Guqing is a little moved, and, full of righteous indignation, follows Zhao Dingye out.

As soon as they step out of the office behind Zhao Dingye, they see his assistant looking over nervously.

"President..." Strictly speaking, Zhao Dingye has already been dismissed and is no longer president.

But the assistant doesn’t dare change how he addresses him just like that.

Until Zhao Dingye has completely left, he’s going to be very cautious.

Zhao Dingye doesn’t react at all, doesn’t even look at the assistant, and walks off with Zhao Guqing.
