Chapter 143: Chapter 118 Prisoner’s Dilemma_2

Wasn’t she afraid of causing internal chaos within the company?

"The Director of Human Resources... Tang Yun," Gao Yuan looked downward.

"I... I’m here!" A woman in a professional suit stood up, her face somewhat uneasy.

"You won’t resign, will you?"

"Uh... hehe! Chairman Gao must be joking," laughed Tang Yun dryly.

Gao Yuan’s stance, preferring to be broken rather than unprincipled, meant mentioning resignation at that moment could very likely become a reality!

She felt as if she could sense those several pairs of eyes behind her, intensely staring at her position...

Even though Jiang Wenmin looked at her with a threatening gaze, she chose to ignore it.

Not everyone was like Jiang Wenmin, who had already secured another position and had the confidence to throw away his senior position.

"As long as you don’t resign, immediately compile a list of employees who are leaving, then send a recruitment notice to headhunters, following the promotion sequence I just mentioned. Promote internally if possible, and if not, recruit from outside.

Money is not an issue, it’s fine to recruit externally at prices higher than the market rate, just fill the vacancies for essential positions as quickly as possible.

If the positions are not essential, then don’t recruit; consider it a staff reduction.

Also, right after the meeting ends, draft a notice for all employees. Starting next month, everyone’s salary will increase by 10%."

Upon hearing this, most of the people present lit up.

Senior positions were tough to come by; with one batch leaving, wasn’t their opportunity arriving?

Middle management promoted, lower ranks got raises—this chairman was giving out benefits upon arrival!

Employees who didn’t want to resign felt elated, while those executives who had threatened to resign were a bit dumbfounded.

They all looked towards Jiang Wenmin. This was not what they had agreed on! You have the Xu family as your backup, we don’t!

Jiang Wenmin’s expression was very ugly.

He hadn’t expected this woman to possess such audacity; she aimed to replace the entire management team right at the start, showing no mercy, something he hadn’t foreseen.

Gao Yuan observed everyone’s reactions and expressions, and she was able to make a rough judgment about the factions, positions, and mindsets within the company!

What she was doing wasn’t actually surprising.

Throughout history, a new emperor meant new officials, and the two things almost all new emperors did were purging the old ministers and winning over the populace.

The most common reason for the first was to combat corruption, and the second was invariably about adjusting taxes.

It could be reducing taxes for the lower and middle classes or increasing taxes on the wealthy.

Whether in modern times or in ancient times, whether running a country or managing a company, this set of tactics is almost universally the "standard procedure"; what Gao Yuan did was merely a version of it.

However, simple as the principle may be, execution is quite complicated.

If you want to purge old ministers, can you defeat them?

Even if you can defeat them, can you stabilize the situation?

If you want to cut taxes, does the national treasury have enough money?

Even if there’s enough money, the wealthy class’s interests have been harmed; will they agree with it?

Even if you get everything inside in order, will external threats give you the opportunity?

Thus, the more centralized and stable the regime, the smoother the transition of power.

The more decentralized and plagued by internal and external troubles the regime, the more chaotic the transition of power.

Changqing Biological, the company undoubtedly belonged to the latter type.

The process of transitioning power, could be said to be the most intense moment of conflict and contradiction. From this, one could discern the internal state of a conglomerate.

What Gao Yuan was now doing was to stimulate the conflicts as much as possible and then resolve most of the hidden dangers at the fastest speed, even if it meant paying a huge price!

Xu Jingsong predicted that Gao Yuan was not likely to be content with being a chairman in name only.

Meanwhile, Gao Yuan had anticipated his prediction.

She had long guessed that Xu Jingsong would not willingly hand over Changqing Biological to someone else, even if it was a mess, he would try to make it worse.

Therefore, the current management simply could not be trusted!

Given that, rather than cautiously guarding against overt and covert attacks every day, only to end up with a mess, it would be better to take matters into her own hands and smash it to bits first.

Building a skyscraper on the ruins was much better than using a rotten wood hut as a foundation.

Gao Yuan glanced at several people who were somewhat restless.

"The resignation just now, I can consider it a momentary impulse. You have one day to reconsider.

Additionally, I want to remind Manager Jiang and the colleagues who are about to resign that, whether you are in the company or not, the obligations and responsibilities you should bear will not change.

According to Mr. Lin’s explanation, pursuant to the provisions of the Company Law, directors, supervisors, and senior management personnel who violate laws, administrative regulations, or company statutes while performing their duties and cause losses to the company, shall bear the liability for compensation and recover the losses.

Those suspected of illegal activities can apply to judicial authorities for corresponding compulsory measures.

If problems are found during the audit process... Heh!" Gao Yuan sneered.

Several people present trembled in their hearts.

"Next, I will announce a special email address. All employees of the company can submit whistle-blowing materials to me anonymously, or openly.

If the whistle-blowing is verified, one-tenth of the recovered company’s damaged rights will be the whistle-blower’s personal reward, and certain consideration will be given in terms of position."

Gao Yuan played another big move!

As everyone digested these bombshell pieces of news, each with different thoughts, Gao Yuan suddenly changed the topic.

"No one is perfect. I won’t hold you to the standards of a saint. So next, I will meet each of you for a brief discussion.

You can report on your work, make suggestions for the company, report any misconduct within the company, and of course, confess your own mistakes.

If you choose to confess, no matter what you have done before, I can promise here and now, let bygones be bygones, with no digging up the past!

Many of you have been with the company for many years. I believe you have feelings for the company.

What is good for the company, and what is not, I think you will have your own judgment. Tang Yun!"

"Yes!" Tang Yun stood up reflexively.

"Go prepare a small meeting room. Arrange for people to come in one by one, um... starting with you."

Soon Gao Yuan and a few others left for the small meeting room next door.

Watching Tang Yun disappear at the doorway known as Back, several executives began to grow restless.

Jiang Wenmin’s face was so grim it seemed it could drip water.

Damn it! I underestimated this woman!

Audits, dismissals, whistle-blowing, threats to sue...

This combination of moves, one linked to another in a series of attacks and defenses, competely suppressed the momentum on his side.

That wasn’t the end. After staging a total annihilation stance, she suddenly shifted her approach and offered leniency for confession, leaving a way out...

Surround three, leave one!

She was now playing military strategies!

Everyone was left in the main conference room, each contemplating two questions...

What should I do when I go in? What will the others do when they go in?

The silence around was frightening. As time slowly passed, Jiang Wenmin seemed to sense the subtle change in the atmosphere at the scene...

Unexpectedly, a term involuntarily popped into his mind...

Prisoner’s Dilemma!
