Chapter Sixteen: The Research Department is in Chaos



"President Jiang, something terrible has happened!"

Three days later.

The secretary rushed into Jiang Li'er's office.

Jiang Li'er was looking at the new energy report and had a headache. When she heard her secretary shout like that, she got angry for no reason.

"What are you shouting for? What's the matter? Speak! Is the sky going to fall?"

Jiang Li'er had never encountered a problem like this before when Lu Zheng was in the research department.

The entire research department has been acting like they're just going through the motions these past few days, a stark contrast to when Lu Zheng was in charge.

Several highly skilled people got into an argument with Zhou Mobei for some reason and resigned this morning.

Jiang Lier talked to Zhou Mobei about this matter. Zhou Mobei told Jiang Lier that the people in the research field he proposed did not listen to him, and even said that he did not understand technology at all and was completely different from Lu Zheng.

In a fit of anger, Zhou Mobei almost got into a fight with those veteran employees, and then they said they couldn't take it anymore and resigned.

However, Zhou Mobei said he has recruited a new R&D team, which he guarantees will be better than the previous one.

But the company is not a small family; it can't shut down for even a day. He also has to deal with the media and such. He can't say that the research department can't function just because Lu Zheng left.

And those old guys on the board of directors are always causing trouble.

Today was actually supposed to be the day Lu Zheng and she got married.

However, because Lu Zheng broke up with her, those old guys on the board kept gossiping about it.

Lu Zheng had only been away from the company for less than a week, and Jiang Li'er couldn't understand how he had caused so much trouble.

The secretary's sudden shout naturally displeased her.

The secretary was startled: "President Jiang, Lu Zheng... Lu Zheng's studio had its ribbon-cutting ceremony today, and the few of our colleagues from the research department who resigned this morning went to Lu Zheng's place."

"What?"

bass!

Jiang Li'er suddenly stood up: "Lu Zheng's studio had its ribbon-cutting ceremony? He doesn't even have money, how could he possibly open a studio? Are you kidding me? He's just a piece of trash I kicked out of the Jiang Group!"

The secretary had never seen Jiang Li'er so angry before, and shrank back.

However, Jiang Li'er realized that she had lost her composure, so she took a deep breath and said, "Prepare the car and take me to see his studio."

She refused to believe that anyone would be willing to invest in such a sycophant after Lu Zheng left her company.

"I'll drive."

At this moment, Zhou Mobei walked in from behind.

Although Jiang Li'er was somewhat unhappy about what Zhou Mobei had done, strangely enough, she just couldn't bring herself to be angry with him.

Hearing that he would drive him there himself, Jiang Li'er, who had originally planned to give Zhou Mobei a hard time to make him realize his mistake, suddenly softened and nodded gently, saying, "Mobei, thank you for your trouble."

"It's okay, you're my wife."

Because of Lu Zheng's breakup, Jiang Li'er and Zhou Mobei no longer needed to hide their relationship, and they directly announced their romance.

In addition, Zhou Mobei had previously posted photos of the two of them together on her WeChat Moments, which prompted a flood of well wishes from those in the company who fawned over her.

We're tired of saying things like "the perfect couple."

So when the secretary heard Zhou Mobei's words, she secretly gave him a grateful look and then left.

As soon as he got in the car, Zhou Mobei apologized to Jiang Li'er, saying, "Li'er, I'm so sorry. I've been bad these past few days. I may not be very good at dealing with people in the research department. After all, they were all trained by Lu Zheng. I... I was too demanding and too strict with them. I will change."

His seemingly apologetic gesture subtly shifted the blame onto Lu Zheng.

"Why do you say that?" Jiang Li'er looked at him suspiciously.

He said, "Well, Lu Zheng was a bit lax in managing them. They didn't clean much, and they didn't care if someone was a little late. I... you know, I'm a meticulous person, and I can't stand that. Also, I'm not really a researcher, so it's normal that people don't accept me."

As soon as Zhou Mobei said that, Jiang Li'er's anger was indeed transferred to Lu Zheng.

“I’ve talked to him about this issue before. These people in the research department have developed bad habits because of his spoiling. Mo Bei, you did the right thing. These people in the technical department are all old hands. You should build a new team as soon as possible and I will replace them all.”

The thought of today's report filled Jiang Li'er with irritation, and before she knew it, she was planning to discard her usefulness.

Since all these people in the research department like to follow Lu Zheng, then let them all follow him.

Get them all out of her company!

She refused to believe that her company wouldn't survive without these people.

The company now holds multiple patents and has ample time to find new talent.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Mobei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly nodded.

...

Meanwhile, Lu Zheng had already finished the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

According to the rules, Mingxiang was supposed to have dinner with everyone before leaving, but she just received a call from the company saying that there was an urgent matter, so she left first.

Lu Zheng personally saw her into the car: "I'll treat you to dinner tonight."

"Hehehe." Mingxiang laughed, "Okay, see you tonight."

Lu Zheng watched Ming Xiang drive away and sighed softly, "There's such a world of difference between people."

He turned around and went into the office.

The two former employees of Jiang's Group who had left the company were also present at this time.

As soon as Lu Zheng sat down, the two of them started complaining.

Now that Mingxiang is gone, they no longer need to worry about anything.

"Director Lu, let me tell you, that Zhou Mobei is a fucking lunatic, I'm speechless! He said we don't clean, what the hell, those are the blueprints we put on the table."

“He told us that if we didn’t clean it up, he would deduct our wages.”

“I told him those blueprints were important to us, and he asked us if we brought them. I didn’t think much of it at the time and just said yes. That was the last straw, and he started yelling at us.”

"He said he would deduct half a month's salary from my salary and scrap all our previous research and start over. I really wanted to give him a good beating, and we almost got into a fight."

After listening, Lu Zheng said helplessly, "If he continues like this, the entire research department will fall apart."

"I heard he's going to recruit new people."

"Haha, are you kidding me? He's recruiting new people? Can someone who doesn't understand new energy technology recruit anyone who can be used?"

If we recruit a bunch of recent college graduates who haven't had any practical experience for the research department, we'll be in real trouble.

To be honest, Lu Zheng felt a little sorry for Jiang Li'er. It seemed that it wouldn't be long before the entire Jiang Group would be in chaos.
