Chapter 1254: Chapter 1211: Bai Xiaosheng’s Demand
When Lin Yu brought the news, Shen Peishen was sitting in Xiahou Qi’s former seat.
After becoming the acting president, Shen Peishen worked in this office.
Not only did he not change the location, but even the layout and furnishings of the room remained largely unchanged. Apart from more cups and decorative items on the desk, everything was exactly the same as when Xiahou Qi was there.
Some said that this was Shen Peishen paying respect to the former leader.
Others said that this showed Shen Peishen’s modest and low-key style.
If someone asked him in person, Shen Peishen himself would say that it was more or less for these reasons.
But in fact, Shen Peishen was truly fascinated by everything in this room.
He had been fascinated for decades!
In the past, every time he entered, Shen Peishen would add a bit more desire in his heart, "If I were sitting here, in control of the entire Greater China Region, what a sight it would be!"
After decades of dreaming and longing, he finally achieved his goal in his silver-haired years.
But only when he truly sat at the summit of power did he realize that everything was not as beautiful as he had imagined.
Compared to the "leisure" of a Senior Affairs Officer, being the president was exhausting!
Especially after just taking office.
Every day there was an endless stream of documents needing approval piled on his desk, waiting for him to handle.
There were many situations, many pieces of information he didn’t know, which required him to spend the entire night reading, studying, and understanding.
The so-called allies who had helped him climb to this position were always clamoring to divide up the interests.
When the head office sent people to see Xiahou Qi, he also had to take charge of the hospitality, busy all around.
Peers from other continents, on congratulating him in the last two days, would also casually inquire about cooperation with the Greater China Region, and he would have to dig through documents to figure out the situation.
...
In short, Shen Peishen could only sleep four to five hours a day, wishing he could throw his life into his work.
When Xiahou Qi first became president, although the Senior Affairs Officers also had their own schemes, they generally cooperated and assisted with the work.
Now look, Bai Xiaosheng in one breath took away three Senior Affairs Officers and half of the Affairs Officers, tirelessly undermining his position!
Look how thoroughly he’s doing it!
Exhausting his mind and body, his "foundation" was being hollowed out.
Even someone as steadfast as Shen Peishen could not help but be "consumed by urgent fury"!
At this moment, having heard the report from Lin Yu, Shen Peishen’s eyes reddened, and his anger grew worse the more he thought about it.
He had originally planned to deal with Bai Xiaosheng when he came back, but now, Shen Peishen changed his mind, slamming the table, "I want to fire him, now, immediately, right away!"
Even if Bai Xiaosheng is a Senior Affairs Officer, he is still the president!
That’s how it will be done, fire him!
Regardless of the consequences, it shall be done!
It was rare for Shen Peishen to be so impulsive, but now he truly was.
This impulse was probably also related to the recent hard work and emotional stress.
"Old Shen, restrain yourself!" Fang Beijun, who had been sitting on the side, drinking tea silently, suddenly said.
Shen Peishen looked at him furiously, "Do I, as the president of the Greater China Region, not even have the power to deal with a subordinate?"
"Of course, you do."
Fang Beijun said calmly and seriously looked Shen Peishen in the eye.
"But first, you need to get rid of that ’acting’ title to have that authority!"
"You see, as the acting president, to put it nicely, you’re just a high-level temp. Do you understand temp? It’s different from a permanent position. Not only can you be used as a scapegoat, you can also be replaced at any time!"
Fang Beijun smiled, his expression cold.
"You should never think that the president of the Greater China Region must be chosen from within the region itself. If that’s the criterion, the position would definitely be Shen Peishen’s!"
"The key point is that the head office can also appoint someone else to assume the position in the Greater China Region! You’re not the only option!"
"Do you want all your efforts to be in vain?"
Fang Beijun’s words, like a sword of ice, pierced through Shen Peishen’s heart that was thundering with rage, rapidly cooling it down.
"Don’t keep giving those who covet your position an excuse!" Fang Beijun took a sip of tea, his head lowered.
Shen Peishen’s eyes narrowed, and he fell silent.
Lin Yu’s expression also became grave.
"Lately, you’ve been a bit too active on your side. Ninety Affairs Officers got laid off? Even for an acting president like you, they’re small fry, but little by little, quantitative changes can lead to qualitative changes!" Fang Beijun said leisurely after sipping his tea.
"Punishing a few people and causing a group to lose faith in Bai Xiaosheng, you knew about this, and even agreed to it!" Shen Peishen glared at Fang Beijun and said in a low voice.
"Yes, I know, but times change. I didn’t expect you to act against so many at once, and moreover, someone from the upper management asked about it."
Fang Beijun shrugged, in no way willing to take responsibility for this matter, "And look, what have you achieved with your actions?"
"Bai Xiaosheng is still Bai Xiaosheng, and you don’t even know how he turned things around. What news have those people you planted got!"
"A series of triumphant reports, right? Great, and then at the last moment, you let the situation get reversed?! If you make a wrong move in chess, don’t dwell on it, just move on quickly!"
Fang Beijun said earnestly, "And Old Shen, haven’t you neglected something important, something fatal?"
"What do you mean..." Shen Peishen said.
Then his eyes narrowed, he thought of it!
"You thought of it, right!" Fang Beijun said heavily, "The inspection team from the head office still exists!"
"Although they have been quiet in the Greater China Region these past two years due to the tug-of-war at the top, even disappearing from view, they have always been around!"
