Company inspection
The next day, Qin Yan wore her mask again and went to the company building in the morning.1
When she walked into the company, all she saw were the workers doing their jobs seriously. Qin Yan did not disturb anyone and entered the special elevator that led to her office.
She opened her office and as always started the computer which showed the CCTV footage from the cameras that were placed all over the company. Only she and Xu Tong had the knowledge of these cameras being placed in all the major offices and corners of the company.
Normally, Qin Yan would look at the footage once and then would go back to her work. However, today she found something different. A female trainee dancer was behaving weirdly in a talent manager's office.
Qin Yan had a hint of what was going on, but to confirm her suspicions, she walked in the direction of Manager Chu's office.
However, before she reached the office, a delicate voice came from inside the office.
"Manager Chu, you promised me that I would be promoted to the leader of the dance group. When will this matter be announced?"
Being a dance group leader was an achievement for all the members of the group. It was because when you performed on the big stage, the leader would get noticed first and would be offered different opportunities. In comparison, the members of the group would get the opportunities afterwards.
Moreover, if anybody wanted to recruit the group, they had to contact the manager of the group and the leader. It would help the person to get to know more high-level people. That was a good chance to form connections.
Naturally, some people had to use tricks to get there.
Then, a middle-aged man's male voice was heard. He said, "My dear, you have to be patient. I have to wait for an opportunity before I can announce it, but I can't do it now."
Hearing this kind of excuse, the woman was dissatisfied.
She said, "Manager Chu, you are the talent manager of our dance group. You can promote someone to team leader easily. Why do you need to wait for it? I'm not willing to wait. The chance might fall into another person's hands."
Speaking up to this point, the woman paused and then said with a threatening tone, "I don't care. I want to hear the news in the next two days. Otherwise, everyone in the company will know that Manager Chu has used his power to ask for sexual favors from female starlets. When the news reaches Chairman's ears, let's see how you will answer her! We all know that our Chairman has always been very strict when it comes to our characters. She had expelled Xiao Hui because of just a small matter. If she finds out about this, what do you think she'll do?"
When Manager Chu heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He suppressed his anger and said through gritted teeth, "You… you're ruthless!" He took a deep breath and said, "Alright, I'll announce you as the group leader tomorrow. Is that alright?"
When the woman heard this, her eyes lit up. Her voice was filled with joy and excitement. She smiled and said, "Yes, of course. As long as Manager Chu does that, my mouth will remain shut!"
Manager Chu coldly said, "I hope you'll keep your word! Also, I don't want anyone to know about our relationship."
"Don't worry, Manager Chu. I'm very clear about the company's rules and regulations. As long as you take care of me, I will take care of you," the woman suddenly said very seriously. Then, she exclaimed, "Ah, it's almost time. I have to go to practice. Goodbye, Manager Chu!"
However, when she walked out of the office and saw Qin Yan standing at the door, she was stunned at first, then her face turned pale. She said nervously and fearfully, "Pres… President, why… Why are you here?"
Manager Chu, who was in the office, heard the voice outside and immediately ran out in a panic. When he saw Qin Yan, he immediately stammered with a guilty conscience, "Chairman.. why… Why are you here so early?"
Qin Yan sneered, "If I didn't come here so early, how could I have heard such an exciting conversation?"
Their faces suddenly turned red and white!
Qin Yan never expected that under her strict management system and strict recruitment system, this would still happen.
In the past, it was fine if she did not see it with her own eyes.
Now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she would not keep these two people no matter what.
If this matter were to spread, it would definitely cause people's hearts to waver. In the future, some people would follow suit. People with bad character would sneak into her company. They would become leaders and bully others. Her company would be in a mess.
Starlight had already suffered much. Therefore, in terms of hiring, she was especially strict. She had always looked for a good character first.
However, she could only examine that many people.
When Manager Chu heard Qin Yan, cold sweat dripped down both sides of his forehead. He used his sleeve to wipe it off. Then, he said with an obviously stiff smile, "Chairman… President, we… We were just joking. Yes, we were just joking."
The female employee, Zhou Fangfang, also reacted immediately. With a stiff expression, she echoed, "Yes, President, I… I was just joking with Manager Chu. Please… Please don't take it seriously!"
When they said these words, they felt guilty, nervous, and worried.
Everyone knew that Starlight was now a difficult company to enter. Now under Qin Yan, it was even more difficult. However, Starlight was quite a sorted company. You just needed to work hard for success. There was no need of bootlicking people and offering special favours to bosses.
Now, even in the market people knew that Starlight Entertainment valued characters the most. So if they were fired from this company, it would be difficult to enter other companies.
Manager Chu and Zhou Fangfang thought of this and felt fear and panic in their hearts.
Now, they were praying that they could fool Qin Yan. Otherwise, the consequences would be…
Qin Yan listened to their explanations and chuckled. Then, her tone was a little sarcastic. She nodded and said, "So, it's just a joke."
Just when the two of them thought that Qin Yan was really going to believe them, Qin Yan's attitude immediately changed. She said with a cold expression, "You two sure are having fun. You gathered early in the morning inside the office to make this kind of joke. But," Her tone shifted, "It doesn't matter if you're joking or not. I'm sorry. My company can't accommodate the two of you. Please leave!"
Then, Qin Yan took out her phone and was about to call the company's Human Resources Director.
When Manager Chu saw this, his expression changed. He immediately pushed the responsibility to Zhou Fangfang, "President, it… it was this woman who seduced me. I made a mistake. You know, I'm a man. It's hard to reject a woman who took the initiative to throw herself into my arms."
Manager Chu's voice suddenly became louder. He continued, "President, I just made a mistake that all men in the world would make. There's absolutely nothing wrong with my character. Please don't fire me!"
Qin Yan sneered and said, "You could have made that mistake anywhere else but not at my company. This is not an offense that can be forgiven. Pack up and leave quickly!"
When Manager Chu heard this, his expression changed drastically.
"And you, leave with him!" Qin Yan turned her head and looked at Zhou Fangfang.
Qin Yan turned around and left.
Chu Guangliang and Zhou Fangfang looked at each other, and then resentment burst out their eyes.
Chu Guangliang raised his hand and gave Zhou Fangfang a big slap. He cursed angrily, "Bitch, I lost my job. Are you satisfied now?"
Zhou Fangfang covered her face and said angrily, "Chu Guangliang, I lost my job too. Why do you blame me?"
Chu Guangliang said angrily, "If you didn't come to me early in the morning and flirt with me, threatening me, I wouldn't have been caught by the boss on the spot, and I wouldn't have lost my job."
Zhou Fangfang retorted, unwilling to be outdone, "Chu Guangliang, do you think I slept with you for free? I surrendered my body to you for the position of group leader. You promised to give me the position of group leader in three to five days, but it has been more than half a month. If you had followed your promise, we wouldn't have been found. You can only blame yourself. How can you blame me? Besides, didn't I lose my job as well?"
Her loss was the biggest.
Chu Guangliang snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, can your job compare to mine? My annual salary is one million, and yours is only five thousand a month!"
