"Hello, I am Ma Huateng, who made an appointment with you for Jiang Yizhou. This is Zhang Zhidong!"
The girl sitting at the front desk suddenly stood up, looking lethargic. "Ma Huateng, and Zhang Zhidong, right? Sorry, the boss hasn't arrived at the office yet. Please go inside and sit down; I'll contact you again!"
The girl's name was Wen Shuangshuang. Since the company was basically in a chaotic state, she had been slacking off for half a month. If things didn't improve by the end of the month, she planned to take her salary and leave.
After showing the two men inside, Wen Shuangshuang hurriedly called Li Yue. "Yuejie, two people have come to see the boss. When are you bringing the boss over?"
Li Yue parked the car on the side and heard that the front desk receptionist had already arrived. Looking back at Jiang Yizhou, she figured he needed to rest well today. "Yizhou, those two people are already here. Do you want to go see them? If not, just let Sister Song handle it with specific details."
Jiang Yizhou was lazily enjoying the cool breeze; although it was indeed cold, it felt comfortable. He covered himself with his removed jacket and glanced at the driver's seat, saying to Song Rushi, "When you get to the company, just be honest about everything—make sure to clarify the treatment and responsibilities. I'll discuss further details with them tomorrow."
Song Rushi didn't share Jiang Yizhou's lack of seriousness; instead, she sat upright in the back seat and nodded in response without saying much. After Li Yue hung up the phone, she started the car again.
...
Waiting anxiously in the seating area of the company, Ma Huateng was quite shocked by this atmosphere. Can they really secure a million-dollar investment like this? If it were me, I could do it too!
However, out of politeness, he still smiled as he accepted a freshly brewed cup of hot tea from the front desk receptionist. "Zhidong, do you think we might be getting scammed?"
Zhang Zhidong calmly analyzed, "This is indeed Zhengyi Technology; the address checks out. I'm not quite sure what's going on either. Should we ask a few people?"
After discussing for a while, the amiable Ma Huateng approached Wen Shuangshuang to ask, "Hello, I would like to know why it has turned out like this here?"
Wen Shuangshuang felt that she might not be here next month and spoke without holding back; she knew enough to fill in most of the gaps.
"At the beginning, this company was supported by the boss and Wu Zong. The money was all invested by the boss, and Wu Zong had no shares. Later, when someone else invested money, Wu Zong felt unbalanced. Initially, Wu Zong was sent abroad, and later the boss went abroad too. Wu Zong then came back to ask the boss for some money to establish Portal, which is located on the fifth floor downstairs. Both of them were not here, and the boss took a group of people to work abroad..."
After listening for a while, Ma Huateng began to understand that this was a conflict between the two founders. One had left after demanding compensation, while the other, Jiang Yizhou, had gone to America to expand the business. From then on, his focus was over there, and he didn't pay much attention to things back home. It didn't seem good!
He went back to analyze this with Zhang Zhidong. Zhang Zhidong waved his hand, "Don't rush to conclusions. How much can a receptionist know? Let's wait until we see the person!"
After dropping Jiang Yizhou off at his residence, the two girls weren't that thick-skinned, so they let Jiang Yizhou tidy up and get some rest before driving to the company.
There was no need to worry about disturbing Jiang Yizhou. Song Rushi asked, "Is it really that serious over at the company?"
She remembered that her arrangements before leaving were quite reasonable; at least everything was running normally without any issues. She didn't expect that in less than two months, it had become serious enough for Jiang Yizhou to come back and handle things.
"The main issue is that people's hearts are scattered. Originally, a million-dollar venture capital investment was meant for them. Unexpectedly, Yi Zhou made some moves and opened a branch in America, most of the funds went there. With Yi Zhou holding things down, there weren't many problems.
Later on, news of financing from there spread, and employees realized it had nothing to do with them. The situation basically split into two versions. Wu Ming also had conflicts with Yi Zhou and eventually negotiated his departure with Yi Zhou. How can you expect the remaining employees to have the energy to work hard?"
Li Yue didn't care much; she was just temporarily brought in by Jiang Yizhou to manage things. However, those employees who initially had high hopes but felt abandoned were not so indifferent.
"This is unavoidable," Song Rushi said with a bitter smile, explaining, "It's hard to develop instant messaging in China; there's no future in it and you can't get that high level of venture capital. You can only go to America for smooth development..."
With this perspective, she felt less confident herself. Although every step Jiang Yizhou took was correct, he overlooked many people's feelings—like Wu Ming—who ended up receiving some money to return to the software industry and start his own business as a reluctant compromise.
"Alright, alright! You all have your reasons; it's no wonder other employees lack ability and were left behind or eliminated!" Li Yue felt unfair for those employees after being around them for so long.
Back then, they were so generous with 0% Training Class shares; why had they become so stingy now?
"Yuejie Good," Wen Shuangshuang suddenly brightened up, it was Song Zong. At the beginning, when she was with the boss, the company was developing well, and the best part was the upward atmosphere. "Sister Ru Shi, you are back!"
Song Rushi felt a bit ashamed in front of Wen Shuangshuang's expectations, smiled wryly, waved her hand, and walked into the company.
"You two must be Ma Huateng and Mr. Zhang Zhidong! Please have a seat. I am Song Rushi. Jiang Yizhou just got off the plane and is resting at home due to health issues, so I will be hosting you both." Song Rushi sat down opposite the two and politely introduced herself.
"Song Zong, hello!" The two also shook hands with Song Rushi.
"You both have seen the current situation in the company, right? To be honest, I just returned from the United States and learned about the situation. I had the same expression as you both. What do you think?" After some small talk, Song Rushi got straight to the point.
You’re asking us what we think? Ma and Zhang exchanged glances; we just arrived here and haven't understood anything yet!
However, since she asked, they might as well treat it like an interview. Ma Ge stiffened his facial muscles cautiously. "I think, actually, the problem isn't big; it's just a lack of leadership and direction. Jiang Yizhou called us here to solve this issue, right?"
What she’s really asking is whether you can take on this responsibility! Song Rushi thought to herself but still smiled and said, "You two can take some time to understand the situation in the company first. Tonight, find a hotel; I believe Jiang Yizhou will come to discuss things with you tomorrow."
She was merely there to represent Jiang Yizhou and ease the concerns of the two. As for promised authority and treatment, she couldn't make those decisions; they would have to wait until Jiang Yizhou returned to normal.
