Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 3) Chapter 68.5: The Son-In-Law of a Wealthy Family (50)
The leader asked back: “Are you forcing me to fire you?”
Shao Mingzhu looked at him without any avoidance.
The leader also looked at her, as if waiting for Shao Mingzhu to lower her head, but Shao Mingzhu had no intention of lowering her head.
The leader finally chose to turn to the next page and continue the meeting.
But Shao Mingzhu did not compromise, and asked directly: “Leader, you haven’t said yet, should we use the lake view or the waterfall picture here?”
The leader looked at Shao Mingzhu without speaking.
Shao Mingzhu said: “Didn’t you hear it clearly? Let me ask it again.”
Shao Mingzhu unexpectedly did not give in at all, which made the leader who was used to finding faults and suppressing new employees feel a little uncomfortable.
Now being questioned by Shao Mingzhu, the leader could hardly maintain his expression.
Others who love to flatter have already started to persuade Shao Mingzhu, while those who have been tortured by the leader are waiting to see the leader make a fool of himself.
Thousands of thoughts flashed through the leader’s mind. He really hated Shao Mingzhu at this moment. He just wanted to fire Shao Mingzhu, but when he thought that if he really fired Shao Mingzhu, the human resources department would definitely intervene in the investigation, and the subsequent matters would no longer be under his control.
The leader hardened, and finally said: “Okay, let’s use the waterfall chart.”
The leader thought that if he gave Shao Mingzhu an opportunity, she would take it down, but Shao Mingzhu refused.
“Since you, the leader, also think that we should use the waterfall chart, then why did you criticize me like that before? Did you feel a sense of accomplishment when you scolded me in front of so many people?”
When Shao Mingzhu said this, many people in the conference room couldn’t help but gasp.
They have been frightened by Shao Mingzhu’s repeated questioning, but now Shao Mingzhu seems to want to seek an explanation for herself, which is forcing the leader to apologize.
The leader stared at Shao Mingzhu, his eyes seemed to be filled with poison.
Shao Mingzhu did not avoid or give in, but asked: “Why don’t you explain? Is it because you hate me so much that you don’t want to explain?”
The leader stared at her, then stood up and walked out.
“Mingzhu, you are so bold. You finally got here, but now you are being fired before you even get a permanent job. It’s such a pity.”
The person who spoke was from the same batch of new employees as Shao Mingzhu.
Shao Mingzhu said, “I haven’t done anything wrong, so why can’t I say it?”
The old staff looked at her, although with envy, but still felt that Shao Mingzhu was too reckless.
“What will happen if you just lower your head? Things should have passed and you won’t step down even if I give you a way out. Do you really have to force him to apologize?” asked the old employee.
Shao Mingzhu said: “Why can’t he apologize? It was obviously him who did something wrong.”
After hearing this, the old employees just thought Shao Mingzhu was childish.
Shao Mingzhu said: “We come to work in the company, not to be slaves. Even if he has a high rank, does that mean he is more noble?”
After hearing this, the new employees were all eager to try, while the old employees were all silent.
This leader has this habit of suppressing his subordinates. The old employees have all worked under him like this and have long been accustomed to it, but the new employees have not been ground into pebbles and still have some ambition.
“Don’t you feel uncomfortable being suppressed by him like this every day? Do you really like being depressed every day?” Shao Mingzhu asked.
“So what if I don’t like it? I still have to pay the mortgage.”
“My wife gave birth to our second child last year, and the family needs money.”
“My mother was sick and hospitalized last month.”
After the leader left, this small meeting room became a grievance meeting. Everyone had their own difficulties, and although they had all been bullied by their leaders, they did not dare to resist.
“When there are difficulties at home, do we have to endure it? The more we endure, the more presumptuous he will become, and the less he will treat us as human beings.” Shao Mingzhu said.
“It’s easy for you to say that. You are just a young lady who is out of touch with the world.” Someone said.
Shao Mingzhu said, “My father owes hundreds of millions to others, and I have a daughter to support.”
Everyone present was stunned, thinking Shao Mingzhu was joking.
Shao Mingzhu said: “I’m not kidding, this is one of the IOUs.”
There is a photo on Shao Mingzhu’s mobile phone. The IOU in the photo shows that Shao Yu owes someone tens of millions.
“If you think the leader is a tiger, then he is a real tiger. If we all resist him together, then he is a fake tiger,” said Shao Mingzhu.
After a long time, an old employee asked, “What should we do?”
“To fight workplace bullying, we must start by uniting together,” said Shao Mingzhu.
At this time, her leader was sitting in the Human Resources Department and complaining about how Shao Mingzhu was disobedient, difficult, and lazy. In his description, Shao Mingzhu was the number one villain in the world, with all kinds of bad habits.
The head of the human resources department was listening at this time, nodding as he listened.
“We all know what you said. We will investigate as soon as possible. If Shao Mingzhu really has a problem, the company will have no choice but to fire her.”
Hearing this, the leader breathed a sigh of relief.
But before he could completely relax, there was a knock on the door.
A group of employees blocked the door of the Human Resources Department.
What was originally a trivial matter of firing an intern suddenly turned into a department’s employees uniting to protest against their leadership.
Everyone was complaining, as if they had suffered a great injustice, but everyone was talking about all kinds of things. As the matter grew bigger and bigger, not only did the Human Resources Department feel troubled, but even the leaders began to panic.
Shao Mingzhu was standing in front at this time and said, “I obviously did nothing wrong, why are you attacking me personally?”
A new employee stood behind her and said, “I didn’t do anything wrong, why are you scolding my parents too?”
“What did I do wrong? Why are you always ostracizing and suppressing me?” an old employee shouted in the crowd.
Shao Mingzhu shouted again: “If you don’t give a clear explanation today, we will submit evidence and report this matter to the Federation of Trade Unions.”
After Shao Mingzhu finished speaking, she took out her cell phone and started playing the recording, which was full of audio of the leader swearing.
The Human Resources Department also began to panic. If they really complained to the local trade union, the next step would probably be government intervention. They are a company in its rising stage and cannot afford such turmoil.
“If you have anything to say, please talk about it in a nice way. Tell us everything you want in detail. The company will verify it carefully.” said the Human Resources Department.
After a day of hard work, the matter was finally resolved. The original leader of Shao Mingzhu’s department was transferred and a new person in charge will be appointed.
At this time, Shao Mingzhu was still thinking back to what Shao Yu had said to her: “The solution is written in the textbooks: the proletariat of the world, unite.”
