Chapter 185: Chapter 185 Not Friend Arc— Dismissal And Resignation

Translator: Doggotranslation

The attitude Mo Yizhi had during the conversation really surprised me. He was actually hesitant about firing me? Why was Mo Yizhi, the chairman, so polite to me? From his point of view, I should’ve been considered to be the unforgivable sinner who had dragged Mo Fei into this muddy water, right?

Long Shan made the tea skillfully and handed me a cup. Smelling the refreshing fragrance of tea, I smiled, “I’m already very grateful that the chairman doesn’t think that I am not qualified to be a friend of Ms. Mo.” I was really impressed by Mo Yizhi’s temperament. I thought it was a common problem for superiors to act domineeringly to others, but Mo Yizhi was not the case. Ignoring his chairman’s title and drinking the tea with me, he already made me feel that he was treating me as an equal.

“Not qualified? Haha, I am afraid that it is Fei’er who is really not qualified. . .” Mo Yizhi laughed bitterly, put down the cup, and asked me: “Little Chu, do you know why I am looking for you today?”

“Fire me and want me to leave the company.” I didn’t want to be regarded as a coward. I didn’t want to leave an impression of someone trying to save himself just because Mo Yizhi seemed to be a very nice old man, and responded: “I incited Fei Fei to make a short-term investment in Heng Xiang Company in the name of the Investment Department for personal gain. According to the company’s regulations, I should be fired and I accept this punishment.”

“Oh?” Mo Yizhi asked with a smile: “Don’t you want to explain it?”

“No need,” I couldn’t figure out Mo Yizhi’s mind at all, but I knew that he must be a person who wouldn’t easily change his original intentions. If his position was easy to be shaken by others, he wouldn’t have had today’s achievements. Putting down the teat cup, I lowered my head and concealed my somewhat complicated expression, “I got what I deserved. There is no need to explain it.”

Mo Yizhi was slightly surprised, and sighed: “You are not seeking personal gain for yourself, but to help Fei’er raise money to pay her greedy mother’s debt. I have already found out the reason. . .”

Sure enough, it had been exposed. . .

Now that he knew the reason, but he still wanted to fire me, and from the way Mo Yizhi treated me, I faintly felt that something was amiss, so I just kept silent.

“If it weren’t for you to be selfless, I wouldn’t have asked you to come here and meet you in person,” Mo Yizhi paused, before continuing: “I don’t want to fire you, but I still hope that you can leave Fengchang.”

“I don’t understand what the chairman means. . .” Was there any difference between hoping for me to leave and firing me?

“Before I explain it to you, I want to ask you a question first,” Mo Yizhi smiled and said: “I have heard about the process of investing in Heng Xiang, but I still don’t understand. Why do you have so much confidence in a company that has just undergone such big changes? In other words, why do you have so much confidence in Guo Xiang, are you not afraid that he will trick you?”

It was indeed true that the wisest and the most experienced could not be easily deceived. Having been in the business world for decades, Mo Yizhi saw at a glance the crux of the investment – trust. If Guo Heng was a dishonest man who only cared about his own interests, it would not be difficult for him to find an excuse to seize our money for his own use after applying for the acceptance bill. A big and risky investment with a small return, such as this, was not a risk worth taking in the eyes of businessmen.

Long Shan seemed to be very interested too. She poured me a cup of tea and stood beside Mo Yizhi, staring at me unblinkingly. Their psychology was easy to understand. When the impossible became a reality, it would definitely raise curiosity.

This was not a trade secret, just a little bit of cleverness, so I replied freely: “There are two reasons. First, Guo Xiang is young, ambitious, energetic, and capable. It can be seen from the fact that he has signed a big contract worth more than 100 million yuan with a big international company as soon as he took over the company. Heng Xiang is the Guo family’s family business. Of course, he does not want the business found by his parents to gradually decline. . .”

Long Shan suddenly interjected: “But the more he wants to get that contract, the more likely he will seize our money. After all, with more than 40 million more funds, it will be more flexible and convenient in operation, won’t it?”

“No,” I shook my head and smiled: “Guo Xiang has a longer-term vision. The company’s revival is far from his goal. He is looking forward to the company’s rise and revitalization. It is obviously impossible to achieve this goal with this single transaction. After getting rid of their current financial predicament, his company still needs development, and to do that, a competent partner is indispensable. However, all of this must be based on the company’s reputation. It is not worth it to ruin his company’s reputation and offend Fengchang just for 45 million. Think about it, once he offended Fengchang, and his company’s reputation was ruined, there would be a chain of effect. Those who are working with us would no longer work with his company, it would affect more and more companies that are currently doing business with his company. So this is something that Guo Xiang doesn’t want.”

“It makes sense, but. . .” Mo Yizhi took a sip of tea, “But all this just goes back to the original question. Why are you so sure that Guo Xiang is a person with a long-term vision, or an ambitious person? Little Chu, it’s only been a year since you graduated from university, right? Why are you so confident in your own vision? You know, overconfidence is arrogance....”

There were no good people in the businessmen’s eyes. It could be seen from the fact that Mo Yizhi only recognized Guo Xiang’s “ambition”. In fact, Guo Xiang was very upright. Of course, this was my personal feeling, but I still thought that it may not necessarily be that all the people in the business world were the scheming people who sell their own reputation for profit.

“Chairman, what you said is right. This is why I said that there are two reasons.” I would not be stupid enough to do the investment based on my own feelings, otherwise, I would be really ignorant. “I do have a good impression of Guo Xiang, but in the business world, with only one or two contacts, no one can guarantee that they can see through each other, let alone me, a little rookie with little experience? Instead of saying that I believe in Guo Xiang, I believe in my father. My father is a university teacher. Guo Xiang was once a student of my father. I believe that with my father’s experience and vision, he will not misjudge people.”

“Oh, so it is this!” . .” Mo Yizhi smiled, seeing that I seemed to feel uncomfortable by his response, and he comforted, “Little Chu, don’t be nervous. I don’t mean to blame you. Although I don’t support this kind of investment and I also don’t like Consequentialism, you indeed have cleverly avoided the company’s rules and obtained a bit of personal benefit from it. From a personal point of view, I should thank you for helping Feri’er solve personal difficulties. From the standpoint of the company, not only didn’t you do anything wrong, but you also helped the company to make some profit. Although this monetary profit is small, the intangible profit is big. The favor that Heng Xiang owes to Fengchang this time is immeasurable by money. You may be the first person to realize the potential of Heng Xiang company, hehe.”

I was puzzled. What Mo Yizhi said was tantamount to admitting that my investment did not violate the company’s rules. . .

“But I still hope you can leave Fengchang.” Before I could speak out, I saw Mo Yizhi smile and say: “Of course, it is not a forced dismissal, but voluntary resignation.”

I was dazed, and Long Shan on the side said again: “Little Chu, listen clearly, we just want you to leave Fengchang, but that doesn’t mean you will be unemployed.”

I was even more confused, “What do you mean?” Dismissal and resignation, one passive and the other active, the only difference between them was that one sounded much better than the other. But the result was still unemployment, right?

Mo Yizhi laughed and nodded to Long Shan. I actually felt a little apologetic expression flashed on his face. Was it an illusion?

Long Shan’s expression was also somewhat unnatural. . . She then said sincerely: “If you are interested in starting your own business, we can provide a starting fund free of charge. If you are satisfied with your current lifestyle, we can also contact other companies for you. Of course, you will never be an ordinary employee anymore. The benefit you receive will be several times better than it is now. . .”

Contact other companies for me, and the benefit would be much better than what I received now? What was this? Job hopping? Don’t tell me that they want me to work as an undercover agent and be a spy in another company.

I knew my guess was too ridiculous, but I really didn’t understand the situation. . .
