Chapter 136 is truly a perfect company.
"Useless!" Zong Guang kicked over the trash can at his feet, sending the wastebasket rolling a long way across the carpet. "I'm telling you, Tengyue will pay the price! You better think of a solution right now!"
Manager He swallowed hard, his eyes flickering, then suddenly he seemed to grasp at a straw: "I'll definitely find a way. Don't worry, I have an undercover agent here. The one I sent over has definitely collected other evidence. Don't worry..."
“Tax evasion, overtime culture, late paychecks,” Zong Guang said with a cold laugh, sitting down and lightly tapping his fingers on the table. “These are problems every company has. We can just find a few of them!”
Manager He nodded frantically, his gaze drifting towards the window. He knew in his heart that Tengyue, though seemingly insignificant, was actually very well-managed. But at this moment, he could only go along with Zong Guang's suggestion: "I still have quite a few online trolls on my side. Don't worry, Tengyue won't be any better..."
Three days later, Manager He walked into the office dejectedly, clutching a document in his hand, his face even more grim than the gloomy sky outside the window.
"Mr. Zong, we can't find anything!" He practically slammed the documents down in front of Zong Guang. "Tengyue Company has absolutely no tax issues! They file their returns on time every month, pay every penny of tax they're owed, and even their deductions are all done properly!"
Zong Guang frowned, grabbed the document, and began to scrutinize it. His brow furrowed deeper and deeper, until it almost formed a knot: "Impossible! Check again! What about the overtime culture? Which young person these days doesn't complain about overtime?"
“I sent someone infiltrated,” Manager He wiped the sweat from his brow. “They have a flexible work schedule; employees can choose to work from home. Furthermore, they have team-building activities every Friday afternoon, and their employee satisfaction survey score is a high 9.2! And all employees voluntarily work overtime; they never force anyone.”
"What?!" Zong Guang could hardly believe his ears. "What about the wages? Shouldn't there be some back pay?"
Manager He shook his head, his voice trailing off: "They not only pay salaries on time, but often early. The most outrageous thing is that they offer fresh graduates salaries 20% higher than the industry average, and year-end bonuses start at three months' salary..."
A deathly silence fell over the office. Zong Guang slumped in his chair, his expression shifting from anger to confusion, and finally to disbelief.
"Impossible..." he muttered to himself, "How could a small company be completely without any problems?"
Manager He cautiously observed Zong Guang's expression: "President Zong, how about... we try a different approach? For example... with the big projects Tengyue has recently taken on, we could spread rumors that they obtained them through improper means..."
"Are you out of your mind?" Zong Guang suddenly roared, slamming his hand on the table. "Tengyue's promotional video this time was so well done, customer satisfaction was extremely high! If we spread these rumors, the customers will be the first to not believe us!"
Manager He shrank back, not daring to say anything more. The only sound in the office was the hum of the central air conditioning.
At the same time, a group of uniformed personnel arrived at the door of Gaoguang Advertising, holding up their badges and saying, "Your Gaoguang Company is suspected of unfair competition, and we need to ask your general manager to come in for investigation!"
"It's all over, it's all over." Zong Guang slumped into his leather chair. This has blown up.
Meanwhile, in Tengyue Media's office, Su Yingxue and her team were celebrating the end of the crisis.
"I really didn't expect that our company's management system would become our best safeguard," Su Yingxue said with a smile. "People usually complain that we have too many rules, but now it seems that standardized management is the real moat!"
Mengmeng raised her coffee cup: "That's right! I heard that Gaoguang's side is in a real mess right now, trying to smear us but can't find a way to break through!"
“However, we cannot let our guard down.” Su Yingxue's smile faded as she looked at everyone seriously. “This time it was lucky; we cannot guarantee such a complete chain of evidence every time. Starting today, we must further improve our internal management, especially in terms of intellectual property protection.”
"President Su," Long Meng, the general manager of Longwu Hotpot, pushed open the door and entered, holding a document in his hand, "I just discussed it with the legal department, and we'd like to sign a long-term cooperation agreement with you. This incident has shown us the professionalism and resilience of your team."
Su Yingxue took the document in surprise and quickly glanced at its contents. She looked up and saw the genuine admiration in Long Meng's eyes: "President Long, this..."
"Enough with the formalities," Long Meng laughed heartily. "In business, we value reputation and competence most. Your handling of this crisis has given me complete confidence in you."
A round of enthusiastic applause filled the office. Looking at the tired yet excited faces of her team members, Su Yingxue felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
Outside the window, the lights of the Gaoguang Advertising Building were still on, but the light in Manager He's office was off. He walked out of the elevator dejectedly, glanced up at the building where Tengyue was located, and his eyes were filled with complex emotions.
"This is really weird..." he muttered to himself, "How can such a small company be completely clean-cut... and our boss has even been taken in for questioning. This time, he's completely exposed."
Meanwhile, in Tengyue's office, Yan Yixi was talking to Su Yingxue via video conference.
"You handled this very professionally," Yan Yixi's voice came from the other end of the screen, "not only defusing the crisis but also winning the trust of more clients."
Su Yingxue smiled slightly: "It's all thanks to our usual hard work. We've always believed that only by doing our best can we face any storms without fear."
Yan Yixi nodded, her gaze falling on the team behind Su Yingxue, whose young faces radiated confidence and pride.
“By the way,” Yan Yixi suddenly said, “I heard that other companies have been trying to poach your people lately?”
Su Yingxue paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's true. However, the atmosphere here isn't something that can be easily replicated."
After the video call ended, Su Yingxue turned to look at the city night view outside the window. Amidst the fading lights, she knew that Tengyue's future, like the stars in the night sky, would ultimately shine brightly even after weathering storms.
And then he could retire gracefully.
Although I'm very busy, I'm very happy. I'm with so many great friends.
So when she asked to leave.
The employees at Tengyue were practically going crazy. Everyone looked so reluctant to part with them.
"Boss, are you leaving?"
"Are you kidding me? Boss, you're going to set up a stall and sell boxed lunches?"
"Does that mean the boss won't be able to get your boxed lunch?"
"My God? Boss, what are we going to do without you?"
The office was buzzing with discussion. Su Yingxue, seeing everyone's concern, smiled and said, "I'm not completely ignoring things. Everyone is capable of handling things independently now. I've seen your progress. After this major success, our advertising company has truly made a name for itself. As long as everyone continues to work diligently and conscientiously, everything will be fine."
As the company employees watched Su Yingxue's retreating figure, one asked, "Boss, where are you going next?"
Su Yingxue winked playfully, "I'll keep it a secret for now. I'm afraid you'll all go to queue up and not work properly."
