Chapter 91: with translation of chapter title

Early the next morning, I, Shi Yong, and Ya Li rushed back to the company for a meeting.

Sun Dajun was already waiting for us at the company.

After Sun Dajun saw me get out of the car,

He enthusiastically said, "Dad, I'll help you."

After saying that, he lifted my arm and walked toward the company,

I also asked gently, "Is the injury okay?"

Dajun said, "It's fine; being young, this little injury is nothing."

"Since it's fine, I'll have Xiao Long apologize to you later; you brothers shouldn't keep being at odds." I said.

Dajun said, "I'll follow Dad's arrangement."

I nodded,

letting Dajun support me into the accounting room on the third floor,

In the meeting room, besides Xiaohua, there were also Xiao Feng, Xixi, and others.

Seeing me enter, Xiaohua stood up and asked, "Brother, what important meeting are we having so early today?"

"It's an important personnel appointment meeting; please sit." I said.

"Who are you planning to dismiss this time?" Xiaohua asked.

I ignored Xiaohua, and Dajun helped me sit in the chairman's seat.

The others then took their seats one by one,

I looked at everyone,

Then I said, "We're starting the meeting now. I'm very dissatisfied with the current management of Da Heng Group; many people, holding their positions, do not fulfill their duties, and many matters are not considered from the company's perspective.

I am very angry.

After returning from the hospital, some people in the company haven't changed at all; this won't do. If this continues, Da Heng Group will have no good outcome.

Our current working capital relies entirely on loans, with no self-sustaining capability.

Such a large group with so many people—what huge expenses this requires.

I assigned some people to streamline the group's personnel, but they treated my words as wind in the ears.

They took no action at all.

Over these days, not a single person has been reduced.

Everyone works like this, occupying positions without doing anything, feeling no pressure at all.

This is unacceptable; I must personally take action to resolve the bloated management of the group.

Xiaohua, you are the General Manager; I asked you, I had you produce a personnel streamlining plan—why have you delayed so long in presenting it?

Upon hearing me directly question him,

he was somewhat stunned.

He never expected I would suddenly launch an attack at him.

After a moment, Xiaohua said, "Brother, you also know that the people who joined the company are all connected; reducing them would be very detrimental to our company.

Therefore, I believe maintaining the status quo is the best management approach."

"What? Maintaining the status quo is the best management method? I've never heard of that before. Reform of Da Heng Group is imperative.

There is no other option; for Da Heng Group to reform, we must start with personnel, making way for the capable, letting truly competent people play their roles in their positions.

Our company has many young people; we must make way for the youth.

Today I recommend one person to everyone,

Sun Dajun, the Vice President of the Group.

He is a capable person, a young man with ideas.

I intend to recommend Sun Dajun for the General Manager position; your way of managing, Xiaohua, is fundamentally unsuitable for the company's development needs.

Although you are my younger brother, I will still take action against you.

Xiaohua, your tenure as General Manager ends today; you will hand over to Sun Dajun shortly.

After hearing me finish, Xiaohua directly stood up from his seat,

pointing at me with his hand,

"Brother, what do you mean? How can you arbitrarily dismiss the General Manager of a group company? I firmly oppose your proposal. On what grounds do you remove me as General Manager? Are these company situations my responsibility?

You practice nepotism and don't understand company management at all,

either you want to be a hands-off boss, or you ask about everything.

Humph, Zhao Jianqiang, I already didn't want to continue as General Manager before, but you are dismissing me like this today.

I absolutely disagree.

Isn't Sun Dajun just your son? What qualifies him to rise so quickly? He's only been Vice President for a few days, and you're promoting him to General Manager. What ability does he have? He's just a scoundrel,

Is there any company like this in the world?

Is there any chairman who would let a scoundrel be General Manager?"

Zhao Xiaohua was furious.

Humph, good. I looked at the angry Xiaohua, who blamed not only me but also Sun Dajun.

Sun Dajun's explosive temper,

suddenly he jumped up from his seat,

"Third Uncle, how am I a scoundrel? Speak clearly.

Everything I've done before—none of it was not directed by you. If I'm a scoundrel, you're no better than me.

My father said,

Step aside for capable people,

You, as General Manager, do nothing. How can the company develop? Dad told you to streamline and increase efficiency, but you do nothing, still thinking about how to recruit people into the group. I can't stand it.

"Dad removing you would be right." Sun Dajun directly spoke to Xiao Hua.

Xiao Hua, upon Sun Dajun's shout, became even more anxious,

"Sun Dajun, open your dog eyes and look; don't think that a little power makes you amazing—you're just letting others use you."

You'll eventually be sold out. Back then, how did you beg me? I asked Dad not to fire you and to promote you to Vice President, yet you ungrateful brat forgot your gratitude so quickly.

"Sun Dajun, you bastard. I'll fucking beat you."

After saying that, Xiao Hua came over and reached to hit Sun Dajun.

Sun Dajun wasn't afraid of Xiao Hua,

At this moment I signaled Shi Yong with my eyes,

Shi Yong immediately embraced Xiao Hua,

Then he shouted loudly: "Xiao Hua, what are you doing? This is a company meeting—how can you just hit people? Listen to the chairman's arrangements."

"Let the chairman speak."

After Xiao Hua was embraced by Shi Yong,

I said: "Xiao Hua, you say I practice nepotism; I ask you how many of your relatives, friends, and classmates are among the company's middle-level leaders."

This Xiao Feng is your wife's classmate, right? Plus former Director Feng, Manager Qi, and so on.

What do you think the company is?

Today I'll take action against you—don't be dissatisfied.

Xiao Hua,

Let me tell you, today we can proceed democratically,

"let's see how many people in the company support you."

After I finished speaking, I looked at everyone,

"Those who support Xiao Hua continuing as General Manager, please raise your hands."

Director Xiao Feng at this moment glanced at my gaze,

and quickly lowered his head.

No one supported Xiao Hua.

I then said to Xiao Hua: "Did you see? No one in the company supports you. Even General Manager Kang of the Southern Group doesn't support you—please, General Manager Kang, say a few words."

Ya Li then stood up,

"Thank you, Chairman Zhao, for letting me speak. I am a representative of the Southern Group Company. Since I joined the company, I have felt that the management is all over the place."

The company has too many problems.

If we continue managing like this, our company's debt will be at risk.

We cannot let Da Heng Group continue in such chaos.

We must cut through the chaos swiftly; Da Heng Group must carry out personnel reform.

"I support the chairman's decision to let Sun Dajun serve as the company's General Manager."

After Ya Li finished speaking, I led the applause, and everyone else followed.

Sun Dajun then proudly said: "Since everyone supports my father's decision,"

then I will take this General Manager position; if there's anything I can't do in my work, please criticize me.

If I offend everyone, please also forgive me.

"I, Sun Dajun, am exercising authority on behalf of the chairman."
