Lin Wanqing said, "Yes! He is our executive manager and has worked at Xinghui Cinema for more than ten years. If we really fire him, it will probably have a significant impact."
Li Yi: "So you've really been threatened by him? You'll really continue showing 'The Heavenly Gate Blade'? Can you swallow your anger?"
Lin Wanqing: "I definitely can't swallow this insult."
Li Yi: "That settles it then. Why worry so much? So what if the sky falls? I'm willing, no amount of money can buy my happiness! Just do what you want. Since he's threatening to resign, just fire him. Make an example of him and set an example for others!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanqing was slightly shaken. Li Yi's words were like a shot in the arm, reaffirming her previously wavering resolve.
She took a deep breath and said, "You're right. I'm the president of Star Shine Cinemas now. I can't be threatened by anyone, and I can't let one person ruin my mood. But if we really fire him, who will be the executive manager?"
Li Yi: "That's easy. There are so many middle-level managers, and I believe none of them would be unwilling to become a senior executive. He's been the executive manager for so many years, yet he's brought Xinghui Cinema to this state. It's best to fire this kind of person as soon as possible. Moreover, someone in such a high position is bound to be corrupt. After you fire him, you can consider candidates. Talk to each of those who are interested in competing for the executive manager position, gather information about Qi Hui, and not only take him down, but if he's involved in corruption or crimes, you must also hold him accountable."
Lin Wanqing was overjoyed upon hearing this and exclaimed, "You're so clever! How could you come up with so many good ideas?"
Li Yi: "For your sake, I have to think of more ways."
Lin Wanqing said, "Okay, I'll do as you say. Alright, I'll continue the meeting now."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Wanqing had already made up her mind.
She stood up again, straightened her clothes, and regained her usual calm and determination. She pushed open the door and walked back into the conference room.
Inside the meeting room, everyone turned their attention to Lin Wanqing upon her return.
Qi Hui, on the other hand, wore a disdainful expression, seemingly waiting for Lin Wanqing to compromise.
Lin Wanqing looked around and slowly said, "Everyone, I have made a decision, and it will not change. No cinema under the Star Shine Cinema brand is allowed to screen 'The Heavenly Gate Long Blade'."
Qi Hui had been waiting for Lin Wanqing to compromise, but he didn't expect her to be so resolute. His expression changed, and he said angrily, "President Lin, if you do this, I will have no choice but to resign and find another job!"
Lin Wanqing ignored his threat and continued, "Fine! Manager Qi, since you've decided to resign, I'll approve it now. Effective immediately, Qi Hui is relieved of his position as executive manager."
Qi Hui: "?????????"
Qi Hui was stunned when he heard this!
"Holy crap! You're serious?"
All the senior executives and middle-level managers were terrified.
They thought Lin Wanqing was a weak and easily bullied woman, but who knew she was so tough, leaving such an important position as executive manager so easily!
Qi Hui looked at Lin Wanqing and asked, "President Lin, are you serious?"
Lin Wanqing: "Haven't I made myself clear enough? You've been relieved of your duties. Manager Zhang from HR, take him to complete his resignation procedures. You two can leave now. Everyone else, continue the meeting!"
Upon hearing this, Manager Zhang from the Human Resources Department immediately stood up, walked to Qi Hui's side, and gestured for him to come in.
Qi Hui's face turned ashen, but he had no choice but to stand up and follow Manager Zhang toward the conference room door.
As he passed Lin Wanqing, he stopped and whispered a threat: "Lin Wanqing, you'll regret this!"
Lin Wanqing merely glanced at him coldly and said, "Take care, I won't see you off. Remember to return all the company's belongings, and don't let me find out you've taken anything you shouldn't have, otherwise, the law won't show any mercy."
Upon hearing this, Qi Hui trembled with anger, but he could only suppress it and leave the conference room with Manager Zhang.
With the current economic downturn, he earned a million-dollar annual salary at Star Shine Cinema, but now he's been laid off. What will he do next?
In reality, Qi Hui received five million yuan from Liu Zhengqi, the director of "Tianmen Long Sword". Now that Xinghui Cinema is no longer showing the film, he has no way to explain it to Director Liu.
"We have to find Director Liu! Lin Wanqing has gone mad!" Qi Hui thought to himself.
On the other side.
In the conference room, the senior executives and middle-level managers were all intimidated by Lin Wanqing's assertiveness and sat up straight, listening to her arrangements and instructions.
Lin Wanqing looked at everyone and asked, "Does anyone else have a different opinion?"
Everyone said in unison, "No! We all support President Lin's decision!"
Lin Wanqing said, "Very good! The marketing department should take immediate action and develop a detailed publicity plan; the operations department should do a good job in scheduling and screenings to ensure that every screening brings the best viewing experience to the audience."
Everyone nodded.
However, the operations manager asked, "President Lin, what about the ten million movie tickets that were pre-sold? We definitely need to give them some compensation."
Lin Wanqing still has two billion in her account, so this ten million is just a small amount.
She said, "As for the movie tickets sold in advance, all of them will be refunded at three times the purchase price, and three family movie tickets for five people will be provided as compensation."
Lin Wanqing's words shocked everyone.
"President Lin, this is equivalent to giving them eighteen times the compensation. Isn't that too much?"
"Exactly! If we do it this way, it's like we'll lose 180 million out of 10 million. That's a huge loss!"
Lin Wanqing said, "That's not how you calculate it. On the surface, it seems like we're going to lose 180 million, but have you considered how many viewers they'll bring? We're showing classic old movies, don't we need audience support?"
Everyone suddenly realized what was going on and gave Lin Wanqing a thumbs up.
"President Lin's move was brilliant!"
"Yes, how come I didn't think of that? This can both appease the audience who want refunds and increase the number of moviegoers at our cinema."
"Incredible! Mr. Lin's idea is absolutely brilliant."
In fact, Lin Wanqing dared to make this decision because of Li Yi's support.
She would never have had the courage to do this without the money Li Yi transferred to her.
Sure enough, at this moment, Lin Wanqing slowly understood what Li Yi had said: any problem that money can solve is not a problem.
"By the way, the position of executive manager is now vacant. Those who are interested in applying for this position should come to my office for an interview after the meeting. I will make a decision after considering all factors."
"Let's adjourn the meeting!" Lin Wanqing said.
After the meeting, a line quickly formed outside Lin Wanqing's office, consisting of middle-level managers interested in the executive manager position.
They all looked nervous yet full of anticipation, after all, this was a great opportunity to take their careers to the next level.
Qi Hui, who had just finished packing his things and was about to leave, almost had a stroke when he saw this scene.
"Aaaaaah, I'm so angry! Lin Wanqing, you bitch, I'll make you pay!"
Qi Hui gritted his teeth, packed his things, and was kicked out of the Xinghui Cinema office building.
