After disconnecting Vice President Fu's phone number, President Hou thought to himself that the information was leaked out after all.
In fact, it is normal for this matter to be leaked. So many people are involved, and the branch presidents are all looking for people on the blacklist to talk. Word of this will spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. It won't take long for the news to spread throughout the entire unit.
President Hou felt that this matter needed to be taken seriously. Otherwise, if it got out, the bank's reputation would be damaged, which would be a minor issue. Once it attracted the attention of relevant departments, it would cause trouble.
Thinking of this, President Hou cursed those who submitted fake marriage certificates in his heart while calling President Gao.
What President Hou did not expect was that President Gao also received a report about the fake marriage certificate that was widely circulated among employees.
The two discussed the situation, and President Gao finally decided not to talk to those people for now. The most important thing now was to deny the existence of a fake marriage certificate.
President Gao also asked President Hou to quickly remind those who had already spoken to him to keep their mouths shut and not say anything.
After hanging up the phone, President Hou called Tan Wenjie again and again told her not to leak the content of the conversation.
After calling Tan Wenjie, President Hou also called Gao Qinqin.
After Gao Qinqin finished the call, she looked at Li Cheng with a strange expression and said, "You guessed it. Don't tell anyone, even if you kill me."
Li Cheng just smiled, then busied himself packing up and leaving get off work.
As expected, Gao Qinqin returned from President Hou's visit and said Li Cheng's name wasn't on the list. Li Cheng was puzzled, wondering if President Gao had let him off the hook or if he hadn't noticed the marriage certificate was fake.
I thought about it over and over again but still couldn't figure it out, and Lao Yue kept sending back the results of conversations with other branches.
President Hou was right; there were some cowards among them. Some, under threat from their superiors, had already revealed the details of the QQ group.
Lao Yue said, "This is an urgent situation. We need to find a way to stop the conversation." So, Li Cheng instructed Lao Yue to leak the fake marriage certificate, preferably to a wider audience.
But Li Cheng also warned Lao Yue not to tell anyone about this matter. The so-called outsiders were people outside the bank.
In this way, the matter of the fake marriage certificate began to ferment within the bank, and soon it reached the ears of President Gao, President Hou and others.
The matter was urgent. So, before leaving get off work, the city branch and all sub-branches issued a verbal notice stating that the fake marriage certificate incident was completely false and that all employees should prioritize the overall situation and refrain from believing or spreading rumors.
Rumors stop at the wise. Most bank employees knew that nothing good would happen if the fake marriage certificate was spread, so most people believed the verbal notice.
Ordinary employees could do this, but they couldn't pretend it didn't happen to President Gao and others. So, several bigwigs from the city branch once again sat in the conference room after get off work.
The content of the meeting was how to properly resolve this matter. According to convention, such meetings usually start with the big boss speaking first to set the tone, and then the other big bosses will perform according to this tone.
Now that the big boss hasn't spoken, the other big bosses naturally can't speak first. The big boss didn't speak because he felt that this matter was too strange. Just as he decided to talk to the people on the list, rumors were flying everywhere. It was too fast.
But he knew that this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise, it would become a big deal if it got out to the public.
"This incident has had a very negative impact. Logically, the culprit behind it should be found and dealt with seriously. But this matter has gotten out of control..."
At this point, the elder brother looked at the others seriously. They were like old monks in meditation, their eyes watching their noses, their noses watching their hearts, all listening quietly.
"Now, we must minimize the impact of this incident..."
Okay, now that the tone has been set, the other big guys have something to say.
The second boss, the one wearing glasses, said, "I agree that the impact of this incident should be minimized. But at the same time, I believe that the person involved must be held accountable..."
The big boss just listened, but said in his heart, it’s easy for you to say, but holding more than a hundred people accountable is equivalent to publicizing the fake marriage certificate to the outside world, right?
The second boss continued, "Our bank has a fine tradition. Since its establishment, nothing like this has ever happened. Their actions this time are not only egregious, but they also set a bad precedent. If others follow suit, the impact will be even worse."
Righteous words, truly righteous words, but not a single word of use.
Everyone present understood that the second-in-command was contradicting the first-in-command. The first-in-command said they wanted to minimize the impact, and the second-in-command agreed, but not a single word he said was effective. He also repeatedly emphasized that the person involved must be held accountable.
Always a contrarian, the boss said in his heart.
After the second boss finished speaking, the third and fourth bosses all looked at President Gao. These two had developed a habit of always referring difficult matters to President Gao, who had many ideas and was willing to work hard.
President Gao, as usual, refused to give in. Seeing the two men voluntarily give up their right to speak, he coughed and said, "I agree with the two leaders. The impact of this matter must be minimized, and it would be best if it were to disappear without a trace. Of course, if the situation permits, we must also hold these people accountable, especially the instigator. He must not be let off..."
