The cold words coming out of Director Liu's mouth were like the final judgment on Lin Dazhu.
At this moment, Lin Dazhu's face was extremely pale.
He had worked diligently and honestly for Xu's company his entire life, but he never expected that he would get into such trouble in his middle age. Thinking of his two children who were still in school, Lin Dazhu pleaded, "Liu, Director Liu, I really didn't know about this. It's really unfair to accuse me of negligence."
"Look, I've worked at Xu's my whole life, and I've never had any problems. I don't know what happened this time."
Before he could finish his words, Xu Kui took over and said, "Old Lin, I know you are a veteran employee of the company, but this matter has really become too big, and the company needs to give an explanation to the public."
At this point, Xu Kui pretended to think, looking very embarrassed: "How about this, I won't delve into the company responsible this time. I know you didn't do it on purpose, but since the loss has been caused, you must bear the consequences."
"Since you want to give the public an explanation, you should resign from your position as factory manager. Consider it a resignation. The company will also issue a statement saying that since you've been a long-time employee and have been proactive in admitting your mistakes, you'll receive a minor punishment and a major warning. What do you think?"
Although Xu Kui did not say it explicitly, it was obvious that he wanted to fire Lin Dazhu.
He took a few steps forward and looked at Xu Kui. "Boss Xu, I really didn't know anything about this. Could you please not fire me? Even if you can demote me, I'm fine. I have two children at school. If I lose my job because of something like this, no company will want me. My whole family is waiting for me. Please be kind."
After saying this, Director Liu, who had just been accusing Director Lin, spoke again: "Oh, you're a director after all. I've heard that most of you have some shady income. How can you lose your job and not be able to support your family? I think you're just exaggerating."
Xu Kui also looked regretful: "Old Lin, if you do something wrong, you have to accept it. And this is already a leniency. After all, I have to be responsible for the entire Xu family."
Perhaps because he knew that no matter what he said, it would be of no use, Lin Dazhu's face was full of dejection.
Soon Lin Dazhu was asked to leave the office. Of course, he was asked to leave just to be watched and have someone record an apology video.
After all, compared to text, the confession in the video seems to be more powerful.
Xu Kui is quite smart. After resolving the conflict, he must come up with a plan to restore the image that Xu's family has gained.
He looked at Xu Nanzhi and said, "Nanzhi, I remember you said a few days ago that you had signed a letter of intent for cooperation with LAN Group. I wonder how the contract is being finalized now."
Almost the moment he said it, Xu Nanzhi understood his intention. Without saying anything, he just raised his eyebrows slightly.
Xu Kui continued, "As you know, our products have already suffered a significant negative impact due to Director Lin's mistakes. This is a significant blow to our company's image and reputation in the public eye."
"Nowadays, only by launching more convincing products can we successfully reverse our image in the public's mind."
"The LAN Group's latest research findings you mentioned last time are exactly what our products need. They were developed in an international laboratory, and they recently won a major award in their field. If we can collaborate with them, we'll definitely be able to quickly restore their reputation."
"It's also a strong testament to our statement."
Xu Nanzhi was completely aware of the despicable nature of Xu Kui's business practices. It's not like she had never encountered dirty business competition before, but she never expected that Xu's conscientious enterprise, which was once well-known, would become like this.
Xu Nanzhi smiled: "Boss Xu handles things cleanly and decisively."
Xu Kui pretended not to understand and spoke modestly, "After all, the news of the press conference at 2 pm has already been released, so it's natural to resolve it as soon as possible. I'm doing this for the company. I can't bear to see Lao Lin, a long-time employee, go to such lengths, but Xu Corporation still has tens of thousands of employees, so this is the only way."
As he spoke, he looked at Xu Nanzhi, his expression as if he had just made a heartbreaking decision.
Xu Nanzhi was speechless, thinking it was a shame that this person didn't go to sing opera.
"The corners of his lips curled up. Mr. Xu, everything is for the Xu Corporation, so it's right. As for the contract with the LAN Group, it's already been negotiated. However, because the Xu Corporation is currently facing a scandal, I spoke with their president on the way here this morning."
"We also discussed a solution. They value the domestic market and our influence there. So, even though the Xu family is embroiled in scandal, they're still willing to give them a chance."
Looking at Xu Kui, Xu Nanzhi smiled wickedly: "I didn't know that Mr. Xu could find the problem so quickly, but apart from that, I have already finalized a rough plan with the president of LAN Group for other responses."
"The LAN Group will send professional technicians to China as soon as possible because their technology is already very mature. Similarly, our products are also very mature. We just need to incorporate their research and development results into our new products."
"So, I told them that we'll announce in a later announcement that our latest product is coming soon, and that our partner is the LAN Group, which just won a professional award. This way, even though the LAN Group is also at the center of controversy, if Xu successfully reverses its reputation, LAN will get a lot of exposure in the next few days."
"At the same time, to offset the negative online feedback, we will provide users who experience redness and swelling with a one-year, no-cost product use license. For the next year, all new products, including cosmetics, that Xu's is discontinuing will be mailed to them free of charge."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a voice of objection: "Vice President Nan, isn't that a bit too hasty? While this can help restore the company's image, isn't it too costly financially? You have to know that this is not a small number of people."
Xu Nanzhi glanced at him and retorted, "You're aware that this is a significant number of people, right? If that's the case, you should also be aware of how widespread this has become. It's just free product use, but compared to the value of the product that's evaporated, it's nothing."
