Chapter 367 Protest
"Xiao Zhan."
After the morning meeting, Shen Weiyang stopped Zhan Le, the back-end developer, and asked him about bug optimization.
"Xiao Fan, did you read the requirements I compiled? Can you revise them?"
She had great faith in the ability of her subordinates to do things, but since the morning meeting just now, Zhan Le had looked worried and did not seem optimistic.
Sure enough, Zhan Le looked at her with a guilty look on his face and said, “Manager Shen, I’m sorry, I may not have enough experience. I don’t know how to do the things you asked me to do.”
"It's okay. It's normal to encounter difficulties. Don't be discouraged."
Shen Weiyang patiently comforted him, and it was only then that she realized that Zhan Le was just a recent college graduate, and her requirements were too harsh, and it would be difficult for someone without experience to get started.
"Well, you try to optimize what you can do first, and I'll figure out the rest."
"Teacher Shen, I'm sorry."
After all, Zhan Le graduated from a prestigious university and had the arrogance of a graduate from a prestigious university. Being able to enter a large company like TX made him a leader among his peers. However, he did not expect that there would be things that he could not do even after thinking hard. He felt a little frustrated.
Shen Weiyang still comforted him gently: "Newcomers all go through this, don't be too depressed, go to work first, just do what you can."
"Yeah, thank you, Mr. Shen."
"Tiantian, please take this to the Finance Department first, and call Xiao Ai in."
After returning to the office, Shen Weiyang handed a financial report to her assistant Fan Tiantian and asked her to call Ai Lan in.
Alan came in a while later, looked at Shen Weiyang who was rubbing his temples with a headache and asked, "Teacher Shen, you called me?"
Shen Weiyang then opened his somewhat tired eyes, looked up at Ai Lan and said, "Please sit down. I have something to ask you."
Alan was quite familiar with her, so he didn't care about the etiquette between superiors and subordinates at this time and sat down in front of her obediently.
Time was running out, and there were many things to do today. Shen Weiyang didn't beat around the bush with her, and looked at her directly and asked, "Do you know where Tang Wei went?"
Ailan lowered his eyes, looking a little sad: "He was taken away by his brother."
Shen Weiyang was stunned: “Brother?”
When she came to the company before, she had read Tang Wei's information, which said that he was an orphan and had no parents or brothers. How come he has a brother now?
"Are you talking about his biological brother?"
Ailan: "I'm not sure, but he did call Mr. Xiao brother."
Shen Weiyang's eyes were slightly startled: "Mr. Xiao? You are not talking about Xiao Yan, right?"
Currently in the imperial capital, she only knows one person with the surname Xiao, Xiao Yan.
But is Tang Wei actually Xiao Yan’s younger brother?
Shen Weiyang felt something was wrong.
Why did Xiao Yan's younger brother come to TX to work?
Is he the Xiao family’s illegitimate child?
Ai Lan was very sure: "It's Mr. Xiao. We met him before when we went out for dinner. He is Sister Yun Xiang's boyfriend."
Ailan had indeed seen Xiao Yan, so he shouldn't have made a mistake.
Shen Weiyang: "Then do you know why Xiao Yan came to take Tang Wei away?"
Alan smiled bitterly: "Do you need a reason for this? Between a young master and a worker, being a young master is definitely happier."
This was roughly what Xiao Yan said when he came to their office to take Tang Wei away. He said something like there was no future in working for others all your life, and that he had already prepared a startup company for Tang Wei.
Anyway, it's quite hurtful to say this in front of these workers.
It sounded very harsh to her.
Alas, workers with working souls are all servants.
"I see. Go back to work."
"By the way, when I came to the company today, I saw a banner downstairs. What's going on?"
When Alan was about to go out, she suddenly remembered the banner she saw downstairs of the company in the morning and asked casually.
Ai Lan glanced outside the office, then walked up to Shen Weiyang and whispered to her, “A department is on strike, boycotting 996. I heard that someone splashed paint on Vice President Leng’s car last night.”
"Oh? Throwing paint?"
Shen Weiyang curled the corners of his lips in pleasure, and asked while looking at Alan with interest.
"Did Vice President Leng catch who did it?"
It was a pity that Sui Jian was not in the company when she went to see him yesterday, otherwise she would have really wanted to see Leng Linglong in such a miserable state.
Alan whispered, "No, the person who threw the paint was very clever. It seemed like they had some kind of automatic device. They were originally going for Vice President Leng, but she was lucky, and the paint ended up being thrown on her car by mistake."
"If this is poured on her, she probably won't be able to come today, and her head will have to be shaved off."
Shen Weiyang thought about Leng Linglong's shaved head and thought it was pretty good. She curled her lips with a smile and said, "Her current hairstyle is too old-fashioned. It would be nice to change it."
"Is it only the department holding the banner downstairs that's causing trouble right now?"
Ailan: "That one was the one that was openly making trouble. They're from a real estate subsidiary. They were said to have been in arrears with project payments, and they were even asking people to work 996. Then the people who stayed at headquarters brought people from the subsidiary over to make trouble. After all, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes."
That's true. Leng Linglong brought this upon herself. Did she really think that Ajin's position in the Leng family would be so easily replaced?
Shen Weiyang: "How's the thing I asked you to do online going?"
Alan clicked on the trending searches on Weibo to show her. There were two or three trending searches related to 996, which had a lot of discussion and reading volume. Workers all over the Internet were complaining about it. The resentment was too great. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was the awakening of the leeks.
While Shen Weiyang was reading the posts, Ai Lan explained to her: "996 is an exploitative system that makes people dissatisfied. Coupled with our incitement, the heat fermented very quickly. It even became a trending search without spending any money. I also asked around inside the company. Now everyone is very anxious because of the heavy workload. They are getting more and more dissatisfied every day. The people holding banners downstairs are the first group of people who can't stand it and want to come out to protest."
"People from other departments envied us so much when they heard we didn't have to work overtime anymore."
When Ailan said this, he looked at Shen Weiyang with starry eyes.
Teacher Shen is so tough. She abolished the 996 work schedule as soon as she came. The employees under her really benefited from her and are living a very happy life.
But I don’t know if Teacher Shen can withstand the pressure.
She worriedly spoke about the negative impact of this incident: "But Mr. Shen, if there is such a commotion, our Leng Group will bear the brunt of it."
Shen Weiyang moved his gaze from the phone to her, motioning her to continue.
Alan then continued, "Because it's a large company, Leng's wasn't the first to implement 996, but it attracted the most attention. It's almost become the epitome of the stinking capitalists who exploit their employees using 996. We're also secretly stirring up public opinion online. The public opinion surrounding the Leng consortium is becoming increasingly severe. If this continues, will both you and Vice President Leng suffer?"
