As the title says, I really don't understand.

Despite being one of the founding members of the company, Gu Xinghe, the chairman of Xinghe Group, did not give Eris a single share.

To date, Eris is still receiving a monthly salary at Galaxy Group, just like any other employee.

Moreover, that's not all; it's said that Gu Xinghe frequently finds various excuses to deduct Eris's salary.

Despite receiving numerous job offers from other companies, Eris refused to resign.

What exactly did Gu Xinghe have incriminating evidence against Eris?

Judging from your tone, you're obviously from a competitor company next door, right? This post is probably just a bait post, isn't it?

Seriously? It's 2023 already, and someone is still trying to poach Eris or other executives from Galaxy Group?

3L

Upstairs, your perspective is terrible! Although it's true that the original poster might genuinely want to poach Eris's people.

But do you think Xinghe Group still has any competitors at this stage of its development?

There's only the difference between current partners and future partners, okay?

4L

Write this down, write this down! The perspective of the person upstairs is simply amazing!

But I never expected that someone would still be trying to poach people from the senior executives of Xinghe Group.

Which newly established small company is unaware of Xinghe Group's reputation?

5L

To be honest, anyone who doesn't know this is truly very ignorant.

It is common knowledge that all senior executives of Xinghe Group's headquarters are indeed wholeheartedly loyal to Chairman Gu Xinghe.

Moreover, Gu Xinghe was actually very generous to them, which can be considered a two-way approach and a path of mutual benefit.

6L

Are you kidding me? Didn't you see what I said about Eris's situation?

7L

OP, you haven't given up yet?

However, what you've investigated might only be Eris's situation.

But for others, such as Chris, who holds the position of president, and Silver, who is in charge of public relations, this is actually a different story.

And Teresa, the head of the administrative department, and Field, the head of the technical department, among others.

Gu Xinghe had actually given a considerable number of shares to the company's founding members who had started the business with him.

These are all true stories revealed by the individuals themselves.

8L

According to them, after Xinghe Group became famous, Gu Xinghe continued to invest, giving them more shares.

For Xinghe Group, whose parent company is not publicly listed and where Gu Xinghe holds absolute power, this is a different story.

In fact, Gu Xinghe was really generous to the founding members who started the company with him.

9L

However, I know there should be a "but" here...

10L

Yes, but...

However, in this case, Eris, who is the only exception and receives a monthly salary without any shares, is truly special.

Therefore, this may have been when Xinghe Group was not yet a group, but just a company that was beginning to emerge.

Back when Galaxy Group wasn't the behemoth it is today, and when it still had so-called competitors.

Eris has become the target of a host of headhunting firms and competitors.

11L

Yes, all the other partners who started the business together were treated very well, but I felt like I was being treated differently.

Therefore, it's natural for outsiders to think that Eris is the easiest target to poach from the Galaxy Group.

12L

That's what they say... but it seems they're being shortchanged in terms of salary.

In terms of the implicit benefits offered by Gu Xinghe, Eris wasn't much worse off than the others, was she?

The luxury cars, villas, and other items that were expected were also provided to Eris as company benefits.

13L

Moreover, I heard that the reason Gu Xinghe didn't give Eris Company shares seems to be because Eris didn't want them?

It is said that, compared to shares that seem somewhat "illusory".

Eris seems to really only like money—the kind of money that can be touched in the narrow sense.

Since wages can be withdrawn from the bank, they barely meet this standard.

However, it seems that shares are not something that can be easily cashed out immediately.

14L

Moreover, I heard that the owner of an investment company heard this rumor somewhere back then.

He felt he finally understood why Eris wasn't tempted by offers of shares and real estate from other companies.

Then, he thought of using a pure monetary offensive to replace all other conditions with wages.

They offered higher salaries to lure Eris, the group's finance director.

15L

I know that, I know. It's said that the offer they made back then was already a multi-million dollar annual salary.

Let alone comparing it to Eris's salary back then, it's not even comparable to the current salary.

This amount is definitely many times higher than his current salary at Xinghe Group.

Even so, Eris refused without hesitation.

16L

Wait, so according to this intelligence.

We might need to add a qualifier to the description "Eris likes money"?

Does this mean Eris only likes the money his boss, Gu Xinghe, gives him?
