Chapter 11 Too Insidious
by SunflowerSeeing such a group of people come in, the few people in the planning department were a bit dumbfounded.
Especially Yan Jun, who had a faint feeling that something was wrong.
He didn’t know how much of Chen Feng’s “nonsense” these people had heard. If they had heard everything, it would certainly not be a good thing for him.
As for Chen Feng, after a brief moment of astonishment, he couldn’t help but be amused.
This luck!
He had originally wanted to blow this matter up, to take revenge for grudges and grievances, and make it impossible for Yan Jun to continue at the company.
As it turned out, his wish was really granted.
The people who had just arrived were all high-level executives of the company: one general manager, two vice presidents, as well as the managers of the finance department, human resources department, sales department, and several other departments.
Chen Feng, of course, knew all these people, as he was considered an old employee of the company.
As for the woman they were surrounding, Chen Feng had no impression of her. But using his common sense, he knew that for so many high-level executives to be surrounding her, she must be an even more powerful figure.
“You two have a personal grudge. In the future, please don’t cause trouble in the company. No one will care if you fight to the death outside the company. Now, you will immediately go back and write a three-thousand-word self-criticism. You will read it together at the company meeting tomorrow. In addition, your bonuses for three months will be deducted.”
Director Cao, as the company’s general manager, spoke first. His face was gloomy, and his gaze was severe as he stared at Chen Feng for a while, then he frowned and glanced at Yan Jun, who was disheveled with bloodstains still on his face.
Yan Jun quickly bowed his head and repeatedly admitted his mistake, “Leader, I’m sorry, it’s all our fault. We will definitely conduct a serious self-criticism. I’ll go write it right now.”
Yan Jun’s attitude of admitting his mistake was very good, and he turned to leave first. His image was very disheveled right now, and he had just been exposed by Chen Feng for skimming money from the company. Of course, it was not suitable for him to stay here.
“Wait!”
The woman with the sharp aura called out to him again.
Seeing this, Yan Jun could only greet her with a smile, bowing and scraping as he asked, “This leader, what other instructions do you have?”
“Just now, this colleague of yours said that you were betraying the company for personal gain and accepting bribes. Is that true?” The woman’s expression was severe, and her gaze was icy as she stared at him.
Yan Jun’s heart trembled violently, and he immediately retorted loudly, “Of course it’s not true. He’s slandering me and throwing dirty water on me. He has a personal grudge against me and is framing me.”
The woman turned to Chen Feng and asked coldly, “Do you have any evidence for your accusation against him just now?”
Chen Feng did not answer her question immediately, but instead asked, “Who are you? A shareholder of our company?”
Before the woman could speak, Director Cao introduced her in a solemn tone, “This is Director Liu, our company’s new boss. She was previously a shareholder of our company, and now she has fully acquired our company. Everyone, please welcome her.”
After Director Cao finished speaking, he led the applause. The others, including Chen Feng, of course, also followed suit and applauded.
Director Liu, however, remained indifferent. She just nodded slightly at the crowd, then brought the topic back, looking at Chen Feng, “Now you can answer my question.”
Chen Feng smiled slightly at her and nodded, “Of course. If you want to see it now, I can show you. I just don’t know if you will call the police.”
As Chen Feng said this, the faces of several people present changed. The most drastic change was of course Yan Jun; his body even started to tremble. He had colluded with people both inside and outside the company and had indeed skimmed a lot in the past two years. If it was found out, he would not be able to escape a few years in prison.
If that happened, his family and his life would be completely ruined.
He just couldn’t figure out how Chen Feng could possibly have evidence of him skimming money. Could it be a bluff? Stay calm! Stay calm!
Yan Jun managed to steady himself and said with a look of grief and indignation, “Director Liu, I’m really being framed by him. Whatever evidence he has must be fake. He’s deliberately throwing dirty water on me.”
Chen Feng was very calm and said, “Whether it’s a frame-up or not, we’ll know after we’ve seen and verified it. What do you say, boss?”
Director Liu nodded slightly and said, “Then let’s take a look first. If he has really broken the law, I will definitely call the police and follow legal procedures.”
Hearing this, Yan Jun felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His head was buzzing, and for a moment, he didn’t know how to react.
At this time, Director Cao slowly spoke, “Director Liu, I think it’s better to resolve this matter internally. After all, we shouldn’t air our dirty laundry in public.”
Chen Feng smiled, “Director Cao, why does it sound like you’re already certain that Yan Jun has done something wrong?”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they understood. That’s right, what do you mean by not airing dirty laundry in public? It hasn’t even been investigated yet, and you’ve already determined it’s dirty laundry? Or did you know all along that Yan Jun had a problem?
Director Cao’s dark face immediately flushed red. He glared at Chen Feng and reprimanded, “You’re being disrespectful. Is this a place for you to speak? Go back and write a ten-thousand-word self-criticism. If your self-criticism is not well-written and your attitude of admitting your mistake is not proper, you can forget about your bonus for a whole year.”
“Director Cao, you’re being too domineering. You’re the general manager, that’s right, but you can’t stop people from speaking, can you? In the end, you’re also just an employee. And this company belongs to this Director Liu.”
What Chen Feng said was not wrong, but his attitude was a bit too arrogant. As an ordinary company employee, do you talk to the company’s general manager like that?
The reason Chen Feng was so disrespectful to Director Cao was that he was the nemesis of Chen Feng’s old leader. He was originally a vice president, and later, when Chen Feng’s old leader retired due to a serious illness, he took the position of general manager. After that, he began to retaliate against Chen Feng.
The main culprit behind Chen Feng sitting on the cold bench at the company for the past two years, depressed and unfulfilled, was this Director Cao.
Director Cao was so angry he was about to explode again, but Director Liu raised her hand and spoke, “Alright, Old Cao. I have my own judgment on this matter, so you don’t need to interfere. Chen Feng, right? Now you take me to see the evidence you mentioned. If it’s real, I will definitely reward you heavily. If it’s fake, you don’t have to work here anymore.”
Hearing this, Chen Feng couldn’t help but be amused again. Although there were only three or four months left on his five-year contract, he was actually very happy to be fired early.
Both Director Cao and Yan Jun knew about Chen Feng’s situation.
When they heard Director Liu’s words, their expressions were strange. Their mouths moved, but in the end, they didn’t say anything. It was too troublesome to explain this matter, and they had both played disgraceful roles in it.
“Alright. I’ll go turn on the computer.”
Chen Feng went to a cubicle in the far corner, turned on his office computer, performed a series of operations, logged into his cloud drive, downloaded an encrypted compressed file from one of the drives, then decrypted and unzipped it.
“In this document is some of the evidence of Yan Jun’s self-enrichment at the company’s expense, betraying the company for personal gain, and colluding with insiders and outsiders to accept bribes over the past two years. It’s all listed according to some of our planning department’s projects.
For example, a recent project was to plan the anniversary celebration for Dingsheng Real Estate. The sales department had originally negotiated a price of 3.5 million. After the planning department joined, the other party repeatedly bargained, and it became 3 million. For the same plan, the deal ended up being 500,000 less. In this, Yan Jun received at least 100,000 in benefits…”
“Chen Feng! You’re f*cking slandering me! Is this what you call evidence?”
Yan Jun finally came to his senses at this point, and he quickly jumped out and interrupted Chen Feng loudly, his eyes red as he stared at Chen Feng, looking like he wanted to eat him. Because what Chen Feng said was all true.
Chen Feng had secretly collected a lot of his dirt. It was too insidious. He had been listening with fear and trepidation just now and had almost impulsively rushed over to smash Chen Feng’s computer.
Chen Feng ignored his impotent rage, clicked the mouse to open a photo, and introduced it to Director Liu next to him, “This is a receipt issued by the finance department of Dingsheng Real Estate, with their company’s official seal on it. It says ‘Dianchuang Culture Public Relations Expenditure One Hundred and Twenty-Eight Thousand,’ and the date below is September 26th. At that time, it was during the period when our Dianchuang was responsible for their anniversary celebration, exactly the third day after the 3 million contract was signed. Although the receipt doesn’t name names, the people responsible for this project and executing it were all from our planning department. Yan Jun, tell me, am I framing you?”
Following Chen Feng’s words, everyone’s gaze turned to the extremely pale Yan Jun.
