After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

"Alright!"

"I'll go handle it right away!"

Wang Zhen replied and was just about to leave when he thought of another matter and asked, "Mr. Wei, who will replace Chang Ruihua in her position?"

"This?"

Wei Zhengyi hadn't really considered this issue, but he quickly came up with an answer, "Here's what we'll do, when you go over to the Jiangcheng Evening News, ask Li Manni to see if she has any candidates to recommend."

"And then promote whoever she recommends!"

"Huh?"

"Okay!!"

Wang Zhen did not understand Wei Zhengyi's decision.

But he always remembered one principle: carry out the leader's orders when understood, and strive to understand them in the process of execution if not understood!

After all, whatever the leader says is always right!

Wang Zhen took his leave to carry out his orders.

Wei Zhengyi then quietly reviewed whether his just-issued orders were appropriate.

He then affirmed his action!

Li Manni was the candidate personally designated by the new president for an official position.

The group president concerned himself with the trifling matter of whether an intern reporter at a subsidiary newspaper should be made official, and even went out of his way to support her. This relationship was definitely no small matter!

It might very well be a romantic one.

That's why, in addition to her promotion, he gave her the title of director of the new media operations center. It sounded quite impressive, but in reality, the new media operations center was still in the planning stages; the group wasn't planning to put much effort into new media. It was just a trial, at most staffing four or five employees.

And according to the previous plans, the staff of the new media operations center were supposed to be young. So, Wei Zhengyi's placement of Li Manni there was reasonable.

Of course, such an extraordinary promotion was certain to provoke criticism, but Wei Zhengyi didn't care. After all, he had taken good care of the leader's lover!

The leader's happiness is all that matters, let others say what they will!

And a personnel transfer in a subsidiary newspaper had just earned him a wave of goodwill from the new president.

Absolutely profitable!!

Not only that, he could also take the opportunity to suppress Liu Sen's influence. It was killing two birds with one stone!

Feeling cheerful, Wei Zhengyi couldn't help humming a little tune to himself.

The reporter department of the Jiangcheng Evening News.

Chang Ruihua had called Tang Lijie to his office again.

"Lijie, you've also been with our newspaper for a long time. When you have a chance, try to persuade Manni not to be so headstrong, okay?"

"If she wants to get ahead, she needs to show dedication. Don't the leaders need to see your sincerity?"

There's a line in the song "Red Rose": What you can't get is always disturbing you.

Right now, old man Chang Ruihua was so agitated it couldn't be overstated; describing him as drooling would not be an exaggeration.

Especially after tasting the sweetness with Guo Wei, he thought that Li Manni was just being hardheaded for the time being, considering they were about the same age.

If Guo Wei had gladly accepted it, then why couldn't Li Manni?

"Director Chang, if it's about work, whatever you ask me to tell Manni is no problem,"

"But I really can't bring myself to say anything about this kind of thing. It's disgusting. You've got the wrong person for this job!"

Tang Lijie had been at the Jiangcheng Evening News for over a decade and was just the leader of the "Hotline News" interview group, with no hope for advancement, so she had nothing to fear from Chang Ruihua.

After all, she was a longstanding staffer with more than ten years of service; she couldn't be dismissed without a proper reason.

Moreover, personnel wasn't under Chang Ruihua's jurisdiction; he only had the power of nomination when interns were being made official, and could only write a more persuasive recommendation.

"Director Chang, if there's nothing else, I have work to do, so I'll be going."

With that, Tang Lijie turned and left the office.

Chang Ruihua, having been rebuffed by both Li Manni and Tang Lijie, was fuming with anger as he paced back and forth in his office, considering how to discipline these two defiant subordinates.

Just then, Guo Wei knocked and entered his office, thoughtfully closing the door behind her.

"Director Chang, is the list of official appointments being announced today?"

The list wasn't yet formally announced on the group's official website or internally. Guo Wei, somewhat impatient, came to ask Chang Ruihua for an update.

"There's been a big development at the group headquarters today; the announcement might be delayed,"

Seeing Guo Wei, a young girl who showed dedication, Chang Ruihua's mood improved slightly, and as he spoke, he casually placed his hand on her slender waist.

Must say, having a little fun in the office is quite thrilling.

"Director Chang, not like this, please!"

Guo Wei pretended to dodge, with a voice that was deliberately coy and flirtatious.

Old man Chang Ruihua couldn't resist the bait and immediately had thoughts.

However, his office had poor soundproofing, and everyone in the office area could see who entered it, so it was unrealistic to do anything in his office. But he could take some advantage with his hands...

In the midst of their covert touching, a sudden, urgent knock on the door startled the inappropriate couple, and they quickly parted.

Chang Ruihua sat back in his office chair, while Guo Wei stood properly at the edge of the desk, posing as if they were discussing work.

"Come in!"

Once they were settled, Chang Ruihua spoke up.

The person who entered was his assistant, "Director Chang, someone from group headquarters is here. They've instructed all those present to go to the meeting room, as there's an announcement to be made."

"Someone from the group headquarters?"

"What a grand gesture!"

Chang Ruihua was somewhat surprised.

"Could it be the announcement of the official appointments?" Guo Wei's eyes lit up at the prospect.

Hearing this, Chang Ruihua couldn't help but glance at the foolish intern.

An announcement of official appointments didn't require someone from group headquarters. Unless there was a significant personnel change or some major news concerning the newspaper.

"Let's go, check it out!"

Chang Ruihua straightened his clothes somewhat and, with his assistant and Guo Wei in tow, went to the conference room.

By this time, Han Tao, the chief editor of the Jiangcheng Evening News, had arrived. He sat in the main seat, with the Group's HR Department Manager Wang Zhen sitting beside him.

As expected, it was a personnel change!

Upon seeing Wang Zhen, Chang Ruihua felt he had the answer.

The HR Department Manager was usually very busy; he wouldn't personally make a trip unless it was something major.

Could it be that Chief Editor Han was being transferred?

Chang Ruihua pondered as he nodded slightly towards the two sitting in the main seats, then took his own place.

After a short wait, all the on-duty staff from the newspaper office had arrived.

The usually spacious meeting room was now packed to the brim.

Li Manni was originally about to go out to cover a news story but had just gotten ready to leave when she received the announcement for a full staff meeting.

She, along with Tang Lijie and two other reporters from the hotline news team, were all sitting in a corner.

"Quiet down, everyone!"

Han Tao, as the chief editor of the newspaper, gestured for silence, and the noisy meeting room immediately quieted down.

He then pointed at Wang Zhen and said, "This is Manager Wang from the Group's HR Department. He has some important personnel appointments to announce!"

"Next, please welcome Manager Wang."

After Han Tao spoke, he handed the microphone over to Wang Zhen.

Wang Zhen was not one for unnecessary talk, especially since Wei Zhengyi had only given him an hour.

He cleared his throat slightly and said solemnly, "I am here to announce three personnel changes."

"First, the intern reporter Guo Wei has been lax in her duties and lacks professional ability. Now that her internship has ended, the Group has decided not to retain her!"

Uh?

This??

Upon hearing this first personnel change, everyone in the meeting room was somewhat stunned.

Since when did the departure of an intern require the HR Department Manager to make a personal announcement??

The spectacle of this termination was indeed grand!

And Guo Wei, who had been dreaming of becoming a regular employee, was utterly dumbfounded. At first, when she heard her name, she thought her regularization was going to be announced, but instead, she was directly fired!

"How is this possible?"

"Director Chang, what's going on??"

Guo Wei looked inquiringly at Chang Ruihua, but he was just as shocked and wore an incredulous expression.

At that moment, many eyes fell on Guo Wei.

To have the HR Department Manager personally fire an intern!

Did she violate some heavenly law??

That's just too exaggerated!!

Meanwhile, Tang Lijie in the crowd was feeling very excited. She whispered to Li Manni next to her, "If Guo Wei gets fired, then the spot for regularization will most likely be yours!"

Li Manni was also shocked; Guo Wei's termination was too abrupt, especially since she had been boasting to her not long ago.

And now she was fired in the blink of an eye!!

While everyone was whispering among themselves, Wang Zhen's voice rang out again: "Second, Comrade Chang Ruihua has been working diligently, earnestly, and has achieved notable results. After deliberation, the Group's HR Department has decided to transfer Comrade Chang Ruihua to the head office to serve as Deputy Chief of the Security Department."

Whoo~!

At the announcement of this second appointment, the meeting room instantly erupted.

Dozens of eyes turned to Chang Ruihua in unison.

To say that it was a transfer to the head office was really just a euphemism for becoming a security guard!

This was the so-called "optimization."

Either go on assignment or voluntarily resign!

Chang Ruihua's eyes went round as saucers, as if he had seen a ghost.

Upon hearing the first half, he had thought he was in for a promotion!

But instead, he was being assigned to the head office's Security Department!

Wasn't that just a polite way to fire him??

"Manager Wang, there has to be some mistake?"

"How could there be such a transfer!!"

After a brief moment of shock, Chang Ruihua suddenly stood up.

Wang Zhen gave him a cold look and said indifferently, "This is the result of the Group's HR Department's meeting!"

"I don't accept it!"

Chang Ruihua's face turned a steely shade of pale as he bellowed.

"If you don't accept it, you can apply to resign!" Wang Zhen replied coolly.

"You!!"

Chang Ruihua was suddenly at a loss for words; to resign voluntarily meant no compensation at all.

This was their real intention!

And at this moment, unable to contain her excitement, Tang Lijie said cheerfully, "Director Chang doesn't need to resign, what a great opportunity to be transferred to the Group head office!"

"Besides, hasn't Director Chang always stressed the importance of having a spirit of dedication? Now you can fulfill your dedication at the head office!"

"So, congratulations to Director Chang on your promotion!"

Pff...

Once Tang Lijie made this comment, a wave of laughter spread through the meeting room.

Congratulating Chang Ruihua on his promotion at this time truly mastered the art of irony!
