That’s right, the one who spoke was Dongfang Rou’er from the Public Relations Department. Right now, Dongfang Rou’er was also looking at Dongfang Liuyun with an innocent look on her face.
As soon as Dongfang Rou’er finished speaking, someone immediately agreed with her.
“That’s right, President Shu. The rumors are getting more and more intense outside. Even the previous company is making some accusations. This has a certain impact on our company’s reputation. As for the stock market…”
“I also think that Manager Yun should give a reasonable explanation for this matter?”
“Yes, President Shu, I also think that the stock market decline this time has caused a certain amount of losses to the company. I also hope that Manager Yun can give an explanation. Even if we want to meet the requirements of the a.s.sessment, it shouldn’t be like this. With our company’s strength, we simply don’t need such underhanded methods.”
…
For a moment, a few voices of condemnation were heard. The more they spoke, the more unbearable it became.
Dongfang Shuman’s old face also sank. She coldly looked at the expressionless Dongfang Liuyun below. Her eyes naturally contained some displeasure.
“Such a brazen action. I feel that she is simply not qualified for this position. The reason why I agreed to place her in this position back then was also because I trust President Gan. Now, President Shu, I suggest that you remove Manager Yun’s position as the Marketing Manager.”
“That’s what I mean too, President Shu!”
As the competing demands were made, the voices grew stronger and stronger. When Dongfang Liuyun raised her gaze slightly, she saw that Dongfang Rou’er was looking at her with amus.e.m.e.nt—
Dongfang Liuyun, we shall see what you have to fight with me?
I have already said that the Dongfang Group is not a place where you can stand easily. Last time, you were lucky enough to escape a calamity, but this time, you would not be that lucky anymore?
I did not expect for you, Dongfang Liuyun, to use this kind of opportunistic method?
Are you not proud and arrogant?
At this moment, Dongfang Rou’er was secretly delighted. She even thought that if this news spread to Fujiwara, would Fujiwara still think highly of Dongfang Liuyun?
However, Dongfang Rou’er was obviously too proud too early!
When she first found out that Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun were having an affair, she did not really investigate it. She thought that the reason why Qi Lei helped Dongfang Liuyun was because Dongfang Liuyun used him to get to the top, she did not know that the two of them were husband and wife!
Otherwise, with Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun not deliberately hiding the news, it would not be difficult for Dongfang Rou’er to find out about their relationship. Unfortunately, this Dongfang Rou’er…
“When you won the South River Project, why didn’t I hear about your image? Now that you’ve won it, are you planning to turn the tables? I wonder what the people from Tai Yu Corporation will think of you. After all, they are the ones who are funding the cooperation.”
Dongfang Liuyun sneered and said disapprovingly.
“Besides, which eye of yours saw me using underhanded methods? Even if I really did, it still means that I have the strength and good looks! Your Manager Rou seemed to have gone to Tai Yu Corporation no less than five times before and didn’t manage to negotiate the South River Project. Is it because you don’t have the looks or is there something wrong with your ability?”
Dongfang Liuyun’s tone suddenly became stern—
“Shouldn’t someone like you who’s not pretty and has no ability take the blame and resign? If the Public Relations Department is filled with talents like you, I’d be really worried about the future of the company. If it’s not possible, wouldn’t it be better to give the opportunity to someone else?”
“Dongfang Liuyun, you… no matter what, I won’t shamelessly tarnish the company’s reputation and cause the stock market to fall. This is the most direct thing. Manager Yun, don’t try to change the topic and shift the blame to someone else.”
Dongfang Rou’er also argued with reason.
“Moreover, the company’s losses are not something you can bear alone. You are not suitable for this position, Manager Yun!”
The one who spoke was Lin Yuanyuan, who was beside Dongfang Liuyun. She naturally would not let go of the opportunity to make things difficult for Dongfang Liuyun.
“Not suitable for this position?”
The corner of Dongfang Liuyun’s mouth curled into a sneer. “I am more qualified than anyone else for this position. At the very least, I am still a shareholder of the Dongfang Group!”
“President Shu, look at Manager Yun’s att.i.tude. How can we trust her with the company?”
“That’s right, President Shu. The Dongfang Group is everyone’s hard work. We cannot tolerate such a person.”
…
Compared to the tension on Dongfang Group’s end, Tai Yu Corporation’s side was much quieter. However, this silence brought a sense of antic.i.p.ation
In the large and luxurious guest lounge.
There were already a few authoritative media reporters seated at the seats below.
The podium in front was still empty. Everyone was anxiously waiting for the main character to arrive.
The reporters were very excited about this press conference.
As the President of Tai Yu Corporation and a tyc.o.o.n in the industry, Qi Lei had been keeping a low profile for the past few years. Now, there were very few people who could capture him. Furthermore, they were trying their best to get an interview but were unable to get it.
This was a rare explosive scandal, so everyone was naturally shocked. Now that they had received news that they were going to hold a press conference, many of the reporters were so excited that they could not sleep.
However, almost half an hour had pa.s.sed since the agreed time, and the main character was still nowhere to be seen. At this moment, everyone was starting to get a little anxious. From time to time, they would look for the staff at the scene to ask for accurate news.
For a moment, the lounge became noisy again.
After an unknown period of time, a sound suddenly came from the front. The sound of the door opening was heard, and someone shouted—
“It’s President Qi! President Qi is here!”
At this moment, everyone hurriedly turned their heads in the direction of the sound and looked over.
They saw a thin and tall figure walking in unhurriedly.
He was dressed in a straight dark slim suit and a black mid-length windbreaker. His handsome face was slightly sickly pale with a hint of crimson. He looked a little tired, but it did not affect his handsomeness at all, he had a reserved and deep temperament, which was quite different from the Qi Lei they knew before.
Under everyone’s shocked gazes, Qi Lei had already turned the corridor and walked towards the platform in front of him. His personal a.s.sistant, Yang Sheng, followed closely behind him.
Qi Lei’s footsteps stopped in the center of the platform. He did not sit down. Instead, he stood still. The spotlight was already focused on him, and the flashing cameras continued to shoot. The reporters could not help but ask questions.
However, Qi Lei did not look at them. He only turned to glance at Yang Sheng, who was beside him. He coughed in discomfort a few times, and his handsome eyebrows furrowed. Yang Sheng, on the other hand, very knowingly handed him the microphone—
