Upon hearing this, a look of fear flashed across the faces of everyone in the conference room, and they all rushed to "explain."
"President Mu, I did not, absolutely did not receive any benefits from the Xia family. I was really just thinking of the company and of you."
Ha, he didn't say it was the Xia family, but this person took the initiative to admit it.
"President Mu, I certainly didn't! I've always been loyal to you. Even mountains of gold and silver wouldn't buy me!"
"Actually, Mr. Mu, I wasn't particularly opposed to you announcing the annulment of the engagement at first, after all, it's your private matter. But Old Master Ji, he insisted that I..."
"Enough!" Unexpectedly, these people turned against him so easily. Ji Nian shouted, angrily rising from his seat. "President Mu, I don't know where you got this rumor from, falsely accusing me of accepting bribes. It seems President Mu no longer trusts me. Well, I, Ji Nian, have worked for so many years, I am indeed old, and old age renders me useless. I should have stepped down from this position long ago, giving opportunities to more young people. I, like Mu Hua, should be traveling the world and enjoying my retirement."
Ha, taking advantage of one's age.
The group exchanged bewildered glances, wondering what this meant.
"Mr. Ji, you're not going to resign, are you?"
"Yes, Mr. Ji, President Mu didn't mean it. Please don't take it too seriously. The Mu Group has come this far thanks to your hard work. You can't leave us."
"You can't leave, Elder Ji. If you leave, what will happen to us? What will happen to the Mu family?"
"We can't leave, we can't leave..."
Each and every one of them was really good at flattering.
Mu Nanxun coldly watched this group of people putting on airs. They were acting, but their acting skills were still lacking.
These people keep saying that the Mu family's empire was built by Ji Nian, but who remembers that seven years ago, when he first took over the Mu family, the company faced criticism from various sectors of society due to product quality issues at one of its subsidiaries? The headquarters was also affected, with order cancellations flying everywhere. At that time, the company was in a state of panic, and not one of these people dared to stand up.
He was appointed to the position in a time of crisis, taking on this daunting task when no one believed in his abilities. After a long period of stagnation, the company gradually returned to normal operations and has grown to where it is today.
It has always been said that conquering a country is easier than maintaining it.
Do these people really think that they can make deals and grow the company to its current size simply by sitting in the office, enjoying the air conditioning, talking a good game, drinking tea, and flattering others?
Mu Nanxun remained silent, wanting to see how long these people could keep up their act.
A few minutes later, probably seeing that Mu Nanxun had no reaction, everyone in the conference room quieted down, lowered their heads, and dared not say anything more.
So you finally couldn't keep up the act anymore, huh?
"Do you know how I treated those two long-term employees who resigned?" Mu Nanxun said quietly, his gaze sweeping over each of their faces.
“I granted their wish.”
Everyone: "..."
These people knew perfectly well that the two long-term employees' resignations were merely a tactic. In reality, they had worked at Mu's for so many years, achieving a certain status, enjoying excellent compensation and top-notch benefits; who would be so foolish as to quit?
But Mu Nanxun actually... agreed?
