Ji Zhinan wasn't angry. He simply closed the file, looked at his secretary, and asked seriously, "Are you sure you want to resign?"
The secretary nodded: "Yes!"
Ji Zhinan didn't say anything more, but picked up the phone next to him and said, "Today is the 25th, and there are six days left until the end of January. If you resign now, I will deduct your bonus, full attendance bonus, and year-end bonus. Even your salary will only be calculated based on the number of days you work. I've done the calculations for you, and your losses are probably quite significant."
She rested her elbow on the table and propped her chin on the back of her hand: "There's less than a month until the New Year. Going out during the New Year costs money everywhere. After the New Year, you'll be without wages for at least a month when you go out to find a job. Are you sure you'd rather suffer heavy losses than leave today?"
"..."
Faced with her secretary's resignation, Ji Zhinan did not make a scene, speak ill of her, or beg. Instead, she calmly sat there and earnestly analyzed the disadvantages of leaving the job.
The secretary was stunned by what she said and didn't quite catch her breath at first. After she came to her senses and thought about it carefully, she realized that Ji Zhinan's analysis made a lot of sense.
Staring at the resignation letter in his hand, he hesitated for a long time before silently putting the envelope away.
"Then I'll resign at the beginning of the month..."
Ji Zhinan smiled and said, "Since you're not leaving now, then go to work."
"Make a note of the companies that terminated their contracts, find out the penalty fees, and don't give a single penny."
"In addition, the year-end bonuses of those employees who resigned and had perfect attendance will be completely withheld," Ji Zhinan repeated.
"Yes, Chairman Ji." The secretary nodded, carrying a box full of resignation letters and termination agreements as she left the office.
"Bang--"
Hearing the door close, Ji Zhinan looked up and stared in the direction of the doorway.
She looks so serious, I wonder what she's looking at.
After watching for a while, Ji Zhinan suddenly smiled.
Ji Pengfei, that's all you're capable of.
…………
A few days later.
After leaving the Ji family, Ji Pengfei immediately founded a new company called Pengfei Group.
All of Ji's original shareholders sold their Ji shares and invested in Pengfei Group instead.
This includes groups that terminated their cooperation with the Ji family, with the Mu family group leading the way, all of which invested in Pengfei Group.
Ji Pengfei is doing very well, while the Ji family is in a much worse state.
In just five days, three-quarters of Ji's employees left, which is a terrifying number. Even the cleaning lady from Ji's company was poached by Ji Pengfei.
This was Ji Pengfei's first show of force to Ji Zhinan, letting her know that there were some people she couldn't afford to offend!
"Chairman Ji, the company is severely understaffed and unable to function normally. We are..."
Ji Zhinan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the scenery of Beijing.
Upon hearing her secretary's report behind her, she turned around and spoke calmly.
"The Lunar New Year is just around the corner, so everyone should pack up and start the holiday today."
After a pause, Ji Zhinan continued, "Also, tell them that those who come back to work after the New Year will have their salaries doubled."
"..."
The secretary looked troubled. The Ji family was already losing so much money, how long could they hold on even if they raised salaries?
These past few days, the secretary has been working alongside Ji Zhinan. As they spend more time together, the secretary realizes that Ji Zhinan isn't as mediocre and incompetent as outsiders portray him, nor is he a spendthrift.
Out of subtle concern, the secretary thought for a moment and then spoke up.
"Chairman Ji, the company is already suffering serious losses. If we can't find a solution soon, the company will definitely go bankrupt!"
