A few days later, on the morning.
The Oriental Castle was bustling with activity, and many luxury cars drove into the castle.
"Mr. Qu, how have you been lately?"
"Hello, Mr. Qu."
The management personnel from various companies arrived at the castle gate and, seeing the old butler standing there, all addressed him respectfully.
"Alright, you all go inside now."
Old Qu nodded in response to everyone who greeted him.
Then all those who came to participate bypassed Dongfang Shuo and walked straight into the castle.
Most of them had never met Dongfang Shuo, and even those who knew his identity pretended not to see him.
After all, he's just a spoiled brat; these people were all promoted by Dongfang Xingchen and Elder Qu.
Dongfang Shuo, standing to the side, looked extremely grim. All of this was for them.
The man who worked for the family was surprised to find himself less capable than a housekeeper.
Watching Mr. Qu's retreating figure, I clenched my hands tightly and made a silent vow in my heart.
We must fire all these disobedient people and replace them with our own people.
Once everyone had arrived, they all took their seats. The old steward sat in the first seat on the left, and Dongfang Shuo helped the somewhat unwell Dongfang Xingchen as they entered.
After Dongfang Xingchen took his seat in the main seat, Dongfang Shuo naturally sat down opposite the old steward, in the first seat on his right.
"who is he?"
"How did you end up sitting in that seat?"
"This is the chairman's son."
"So young, and without a company position, how can he attend such a meeting?"
Many people looked at where Dongfang Shuo was sitting and began to whisper among themselves.
They also started pointing fingers at Dongfang Shuo.
"Ahem, all of you shut your mouths!"
Dongfang Xingchen slammed the blanket in front of him onto the table and said to the others with some displeasure.
Although Dongfang Xingchen was already somewhat powerless, his authority was still there. After all, they were just employees, and when they heard that Dongfang Xingchen had lost his temper, they quickly shut their mouths.
"Have the people from Oriental Investment arrived yet?"
After everyone shut their mouths, Dongfang Xingchen still asked them unhappily.
"I am Zhang Fang, the current investment manager at Oriental Investment."
When Manager Zhang heard Dongfang Xingchen call his name, he quickly stood up and introduced himself to Dongfang Xingchen.
Where did the old Wang Yu go?
Dongfang Xingchen looked at the person who stood up. He had never seen him before, let alone a manager from Dongfang Investment.
Remembering that he had previously appointed Wang Yu as general manager, he was somewhat surprised to find that Zhang Fang had been appointed instead and asked him about it.
"Manager Wang is getting on in years. He has already submitted his resignation, but we haven't brought it to you yet. He asked me to manage things for him on his behalf."
When Dongfang Xingchen asked about Wang Yu, Zhang Fang glanced at Elder Qu and then delivered his prepared remarks.
"Yes, Mr. Wang is indeed getting on in years. I've already approved his resignation. Please go and handle this matter."
After listening to Zhang Fang's words, Dongfang Xingchen thought about it for a moment and realized that Wang Yu's age was indeed not suitable for the position of manager. So he gave instructions to Elder Qu.
"Leave this to me."
Old Master Qu was quite surprised to hear that Dongfang Xingchen did not try to persuade him to stay.
He was surprised that Wang Yu, who could rival him, was allowed to go, but he didn't think much of it. In any case, it was a good thing for him that his mortal enemy, Wang Yu, was gone.
Zhang Fang, on the other side, was also overjoyed.
After Wang Yu left, the vacant position of general manager had to be filled by myself.
“I am very dissatisfied with yesterday’s bidding process. Zhang Fang of Dongfang Investment, and all the key personnel under him who have failed in their duties, are hereby suspended and investigated!”
Before Zhang Fang could finish celebrating, Dongfang Xingchen's words shocked everyone present.
"Chairman, we have suspended the staff who failed to conduct the investigation."
Zhang Fang panicked when he heard that they were all going to be suspended.
He did so much to become the manager of Oriental Investment after Wang Yu left, but he never expected Oriental Star to pull such a stunt.
So he quickly began to explain to Dongfang Xingchen.
"Stop talking. I won't change my mind. Pack your things tomorrow, and I'll reinstate you when the opportunity arises."
Dongfang Xingchen looked at Zhang Fang, then raised his hand to interrupt Zhang Fang, and said to Zhang Fang with a firm attitude.
Seeing the resolute determination of Dongfang Xingchen, Zhang Fang could only place all his hopes on Elder Qu.
He looked at Old Master Qu, hoping the other man would put in a good word for him.
"Sir, since you want to suspend them all, then someone has to take their place, right?"
Old Qu gestured for the excited Zhang Fang to sit down first, then turned to Dongfang Xingchen and asked.
"That's right, we need to find someone to be the general manager; after all, that's a top priority for the company."
After listening to Elder Qu's words, Dongfang Xingchen nodded in agreement.
"Since there's no suitable candidate yet, let's put Zhang Fang in charge for now and see how capable he is. We can also give him a chance to make up for his mistakes. If he still doesn't perform well, then we can replace him later!"
When Elder Qu heard that Dongfang Xingchen did not have a suitable candidate, he quickly seized the opportunity to speak to him.
"Hey, then let Dongfang Shuo get some experience. Aren't you studying finance too?"
Listening to Elder Qu speaking up for Zhang Fang, Zhang Fang thought that if he were allowed to continue as manager, he would harbor resentment towards Elder Qu and would definitely side with him. He noticed Dongfang Shuo sitting to the side and asked.
“That’s right, I already have a PhD in finance, and I’m sure I can do even better if I were to go there.”
Dongfang Shuo stood up from his chair and addressed the crowd.
"Alright, from now on, Dongfang Shuo will be the new general manager of Dongfang Investment."
Upon hearing his son's words, Dongfang Xingchen announced the appointment to everyone.
All the other managers offered their congratulations, but Manager Zhang, who had been laid off, sat in his chair looking dejected.
As if they had lost their souls, the other managers also smiled on the surface, but in their hearts they all expressed their dissatisfaction with Dongfang Shuo.
"Chairman, I still think Zhang Fang has made great contributions to the company. Let's keep a position for him. The young master has just joined the company and doesn't know anything. Wouldn't it be good to have someone guide him and help him get familiar with things?"
Oriental Investment is the core of the entire Oriental family.
Other companies all rely on Oriental Investment to operate.
