Chapter 491: Chapter 491 Firm Attitude_1

Wang Ye smiled, responding nonchalantly, "Did they tell you what they’ve been up to?"

Grezlov seemed taken aback and shook his head, "No, what else could they do?"

"Disrespecting superiors, speaking disrespectfully in front of me, mocking and defying my decisions! Why should I keep such subordinates?" Wang Ye stated frankly.

Grezlov was speechless for a while.

After a long pause, he asked, still in disbelief, "Do they dare to act in such a way? That seems far-fetched. Your role as a chairman involved a full-council vote by the Duma. Their actions are directly opposing the Duma."

Wang Ye spread his hands helplessly, "Yeah, initially I also couldn’t believe they would do that. By the way, did they mention anything about wanting to work abroad for a high salary?"

"They did mention it. Yuri and the others said they would plan on working abroad if they really got fired, as it’s not possible to find relevant work in the industry domestically. I don’t see any issue with that, if you really want to fire them, then let them go,"

Grezlov replied casually, seemingly not grasping the issue.

Wang Ye shook his head, "They can’t be allowed to go abroad! These people possess a great deal of confidential military technology. People offering so much money are not targeting them as individuals, but the technology they possess! At the next Duma Council meeting, I plan to push for legislation to ban any personnel who have had access to classified technology from going abroad!"

Grezlov’s eyes widened, genuinely, he had never thought about this issue before!

However, it’s not surprising as he came into politics halfway through his career without having dealt with such matters, not realizing the severity of the issue.

If Gavriil or Shao Yigu were involved in discussing this, they would also absolutely forbid allowing these people to work abroad.

"Alright, your points are quite valid. However, I believe that managing the Group company, there should be some respect for these veteran employees. If relations are not handled well, there could be problems down the line..." Grezlov attempted a final effort to urge Wang Ye to take a more moderate approach.

But before he could finish, Wang Ye cut him off.

"That’s my managerial style. If they can’t adapt, they can leave! Or rather, I can leave. Honestly, raising that much funding for United Airlines has been quite difficult for me." Wang Ye said, looking at Grezlov with a somewhat playful expression.

This startled Grezlov, who hastily waved his hands, "No no! Just do as you say, all your appointments have been issued. If you quit now, it would cause quite a bad impression."

Honestly, if Wang Ye decided to quit now, it wouldn’t affect him much, instead, he might save quite a bit of money.

The shares of the United Aviation Group are not particularly coveted, otherwise, the position wouldn’t be vacant for half a year with no one willing to take up the role. It seems like Grezlov dug a pit for Wang Ye to fall into...

But for Grezlov, the impact would be quite severe, as he has been continuously pushing for the merger of several companies to form the United Aviation Group.

If the process were to stop halfway, it would greatly harm his prestige!

Therefore, Wang Ye’s words were a subtle threat to him, but he had no choice but to comply!

"What about them..." Wang Ye asked further.

Grezlov responded reluctantly, "I told them to apologize to you and fully cooperate with your work in the future. If they can be retained, try to retain them as much as possible; after all, they have worked in various subsidiaries for so many years and do possess certain abilities."

Wang Ye gave no clear response. If those few people sincerely submitted, it wouldn’t be impossible to keep them.

As for integrating management across several subsidiaries, it would be better if they cooperate, but even without their cooperation, things can still proceed.

After all, there’s Alexander, who is a top talent in the industry, in charge.

As for the middle and lower-level staff in those subsidiaries, they won’t follow their bosses out. Those bosses don’t have that much charisma!

On their end, as long as they let Alexander announce that all the group’s employee salaries and benefits will be paid on time, promising bonuses if business is doing well.

The employees will certainly stay and work hard!

...

After discussing matters with Grezlov, Wang Ye returned to his office.

Right after he finished dealing with a few tasks, his assistant, Yelena, knocked on the door and came in.

"Boss, Yuri and a few others are waiting outside, they want to see you."

Since Yelena joined Wang Ye’s meeting at the Group Headquarters in the morning, she was naturally aware of Yuri and the others.

Wang Ye looked up and asked, "Oh, what do they want?"

"From the way they talk, they seem to have come to apologize to you," Yelena said, smiling.

Wang Ye raised an eyebrow and said with interest, "So they’ve come to apologize so soon? Wonder what Grezlov said to them."

In fact, right after Wang Ye expressed his attitude to Grezlov, he made a phone call to Yuri and the others.

Yuri initially thought there would be good news, but as soon as the call was connected, Grezlov began a stern lecture...

He scolded Yuri and the others until they felt dejected.

Moreover, during the call, Grezlov made it clear that the United Aviation Group was under the command of Wang Ye, and his words could indeed represent the attitude of the board of directors!

This was because the State-Owned Assets in United Airlines, although held in a high percentage, were already entrusted to Wang Ye.

In other words, the current United Aviation Group was represented entirely by Wang Ye!

Whoever he says can be the manager, can indeed be the manager!

Whoever he says to roll, you have no other option but to roll...

As for going abroad to earn USD, don’t even think about it!

This could likely involve leaking state secrets and could carry criminal liability.

...

Evidently, their way out was blocked, and Yuri and the others finally realized the reality of the situation.

It didn’t matter how old Mikhail was, or whether he reached his current position by actual ability or through contacts.

As long as he occupies that position, you must maintain sufficient respect for him!

Otherwise, be prepared to face the consequences!

After hanging up the phone, they all looked at each other.

After a long discussion, no one came up with a better solution.

They could only swallow their pride and come to apologize to Wang Ye dejectedly. Fortunately, Grezlov told them that Wang Ye was at his office in the Duma Building.

Otherwise, it would not be so simple for them to find Wang Ye.

......

"Let them wait at the door, tell them I’m busy."

Wang Ye waved his hand and said.

He was indeed intrigued to see whether these individuals genuinely recognized their mistakes...
