Chapter 294 - Chapter 294 Chapter 294 Chairman Wang

Chapter 294: Chapter 294 Chairman Wang Chapter 294: Chapter 294 Chairman Wang This poor fellow… but he does have a strong sense of responsibility, which is good.

Walking further in, Wang Hao casually glanced and saw several people inside the Human Resources department whispering. He perked up his ears and caught fragments of the conversation:

“Manager Lin, I beg you, let me leave. I truly can’t hold on any longer!”

“I want to resign. Can’t I even resign?!”

Then he heard a woman’s voice, almost crying, “Now is the company’s most difficult time. If you all can just hold on a bit more, just one more month, okay? Otherwise, if you leave, we won’t be able to find replacements!”

Lin Xiaoyun helplessly shook her head, “My sister, Lin Xiaoyu, sigh, she’s nearly driven mad by all this!”

This really is like a scattering of monkeys from a fallen tree!

Continuing on, Wang Hao had just taken a few steps when he was utterly stunned by one room! Looking inside through the window… he couldn’t see anything at all! The entire room seemed like a giant chimney, completely obscuring any view of the people!

Lin Xiaoyun shook her head, “Drama editor Zhao Fei, he’s been so worried lately that he smokes one cigarette after another, three packs a day! When profits were good, he smoked fifteen yuan-a-pack Huanghelou, now it’s down to five yuan-a-pack Qipilang…”

Wang Hao: “…”

This is definitely a pace of smoking oneself into poverty, looking tragically at it…

The two took a few more steps when they saw a girl holding a stack of manuscripts, chasing a middle-aged man in a suit while pleading, “Chief Li, please give us a chance! I believe our company’s works can make it!”

“Your work really isn’t up to standard,” Chief Li said, shaking his head as he walked: “Such works can only serve as inventory, I’m truly sorry.”

Damn, what kind of work can only serve as inventory?

Driven by curiosity, Wang Hao walked up, snatched the manuscripts from the girl’s hand, and laughed after just one glance!

“I thought what it was, turns out it’s a detective comic? This is a small matter!”

A detective comic is a small matter? Who is this guy with such grand statements?

Chief Li eyed Wang Hao curiously, “Who are you? Do you know a lot about detective comics?”

He was just making small talk, but unexpectedly, Wang Hao completely ignored him, instead scanning the entire office and furrowing his brows intensely.

Naturally, Wang Hao was no stranger to comics; he could quickly bring everyone into line.

But now he’d identified the biggest problem with this comic company!

That is, the place was incredibly morose.

A company can be out of money, but it cannot be out of morale! If the company’s staff loses their spirit, spending days on end just muddling along, even the most genius ideas will surely be useless!

This won’t do, Wang Hao slammed the manuscripts down on the desk with a “smack,” and shouted, “Everyone listen to me! I don’t care if you want to resign or whatever, just put down whatever you’re doing and come to the conference room!”

In any other company, they might at least ask who this person was, but in Lin Xiaoyun’s company, nobody made a peep!

The entire office’s staff was all despondent–

“Why hold a meeting at this time? Just disperse already…”

“Right, our submission was rejected again, there’s no hope left…”

“Is the company about to declare bankruptcy? Look at Sister Lin, with ash and dirt all over her…”

“Let’s listen first. No matter what, Sister Lin is quite nice. We’re about to go our separate ways anyway, a little longer doesn’t hurt, alas…”

The ones who willingly went to the meeting room were the good ones. Many people didn’t budge at all, as if they hadn’t heard Wang Hao speak!

The artist Zhang Zhengyang was still pulling his hair and crumpling paper balls, while the sound of lighting a cigarette came from plot editor Zhao Fei’s room. People in the HR department kept talking about quitting…

I knew it, if the company continued this vibe, they wouldn’t need anyone to shut it down; they’d destroy themselves!

In circumstances like these, extreme measures are necessary. Wang Hao walked straight to Zhang Zhengyang’s desk, grabbed the pen from his hand without saying a word, tore up his drawing book completely, and then kicked him: “Get your ass to the meeting room now! Move or I’ll kick you in there!”

Humans usually had some grit, but Zhang Zhengyang acted like a wooden doll, showing no signs of life, his whole being blurry as he walked towards the meeting room…

Never mind him for now, Wang Hao then ran to plot editor Zhao Fei’s door, shouting loudly, “No wonder nobody wants your work, I wouldn’t accept it either! What the heck is this?! Is this a detective comic? It looks more like a romance! Where’s the solving of crimes? The bizarre murder methods!”

Right after Wang Hao finished the sentence, there was a loud bang, and plot writer Zhao Fei, accompanied by rolling smoke, charged out from the office! His appearance engulfed half the office in smoke, even more potent than the haze!

“Who said my work is no good?! Who said it?!” After charging out, Zhao Fei scrambled around, his eyes red and fierce like an enraged bull. Some employees, fearing a fight might break out, rushed forward to hold him, grabbing arms and legs, desperately trying to calm him: “Zhao, don’t get excited, just calm down, let’s talk!”

Watching the three packs a day, Zhao Fei, Wang Hao said, “I said it, what, you disagree?”

Wang Hao thought a fight might break out considering Zhao Fei’s current state, but instead, Zhao threw himself at Wang Hao, hugging his thighs and crying out loud, “Help! Save me! I’ve been thinking about this plot for six days and nights! I can’t figure out anything touching! If you can, please help me! I’m really desperate here!”

Oh crap, what is this situation?

“Stop the nonsense, get to the meeting room now!” Wang Hao kicked him away: “And don’t you dare smoke in there, got it?!”

After dealing with Zhao Fei, Wang Hao went to the door of the HR department and shouted inside, “I don’t care if you’re planning to quit or not, head to the meeting room for a meeting now! Now, move! And you,” Wang Hao pointed at Lin Xiaoyun’s sister, “you get going!”

The two employees who were fussing about resigning listlessly entered the meeting room. At that moment, a few other senior managers walked over soullessly, as if ready to flee from a great disaster. In their minds, this was already a company with no future.

Declaring bankruptcy and closing down was definitely the best choice for this company. The only reason they hadn’t left was that they had been here for several years and still felt a slight sense of attachment – that was all.

“What is this youngster up to?” Chief Li looked at Wang Hao’s figure, full of curiosity: “Just now he said detective comics were trivial, now he’s planning a meeting, what is he really up to?”

Thinking this, Chief Li followed the other employees into the meeting room–Might as well listen!

Soon everyone gathered in the meeting room. When everyone was seated, Wang Hao stood at the front podium, slapped his hand down hard making a loud “bang” sound, and said, “I’m done with the nonsense, starting from now, I’m the new director of this company, my surname is Wang, you can call me Chairman Wang!”

A new director? Our company was actually getting a new one?

Interest finally peaked among the employees throughout the office, and they all looked up at Wang Hao, only to be stunned–

The young man’s clothes were tattered, not only dirty, but also covered with burnt little holes everywhere!

“Is he here to joke around?! A chairman dressed like that!”

“Look how dirty his clothes are. Hasn’t he washed them for months?”

“It’s over, with a newcomer director like this, this company has no future at all…”

Hearing this, Chief Li was also stunned! He held it in for a while, then could no longer restrain himself and burst into laughter: “Hahaha, I can’t anymore, let me laugh for a bit. He doesn’t look like a director at all–more like a laborer!”
