The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Director Kang and several bodyguards straightened up their appearance, and each of them stood ashamedly in front of "Deputy Manager Wan", like children who had made mistakes, waiting to be lectured.
Fortunately, Deputy General Manager Wan didn't seem to be as angry as they thought.
He sighed softly and asked: "Lao Kang, how long have we been out? What are the plans for today?"
Director Kang quickly looked at the time: "To be precise, it's one hour and ten minutes. There was a family dinner at noon today..."
At this point, Director Kang wisely shut up.
What if Mr. Ming and Mr. Yue lose contact, and the deputy general manager is like an ant on a hot pot, how can we talk about the family dinner?
"There will be a meeting at two o'clock in the afternoon. The theme is related to the long absence of the leader of Star City..."
Is there such a meeting?
The leader of Star City, namely Han Yiyang, went to the capital to escape the limelight on the pretext of being unwell after his last operation failed.
Nominally, he has never returned to Star City and has not shown up in Star City until now.
Taking sick leave is very common in normal times, but in today's situation, it is an indisputable fact that when you are away from work for a long time, you cannot advance many things at work.
Therefore, regarding this point, Deputy General Manager Wan and Xie Fuzheng have discussed this many times in private and are now planning to hold a special meeting to discuss this issue.
Obviously, this is a signal that they are ready to make a fuss about the fate of the leader of Star City from the official side.
Good guy.
The Lord in charge is not idle over there, and it seems that he is not idle here either.
The Lord in charge is strategizing in the dark, and we are also preparing to give him a blow in the open.
Director Kang saw the deputy general manager's serious expression and was a little unsure for a moment.
"Manager, that person just now..."
"Sent away." Jiang Yue sighed deliberately and asked, "Old Kang, do you have the same feeling? This organization is getting more and more out of control?"
Director Kang smiled bitterly and was silent for a while.
For him to be able to get along with leaders at this age, caution is essential. They don't know what to say and what not to say.
The current topic was not something he could comment on casually.
If you speak well, you may not be successful; if you speak poorly, you may make the leader unhappy.
"What? Lao Kang, you don't dare to tell the truth to me anymore? I don't even have anyone around me who can tell the truth now?" Jiang Yue pretended to be angry, raising his voice and looking a little annoyed.
"No, no, sir, calm down. I don't dare to say it. It's because I am of low status and speak softly, so it's not suitable for me to say it."
"What? You work next to me and you still feel that your status is low?"
"Manager, you misunderstood. That organization...well, you have never been willing to listen to what I have to say about them." Director Kang's tone revealed some grievances and sadness.
You usually stay away from me. When it comes to that organization, you only trust Mr. Yue, and you deliberately avoid me on important matters. What should I say now?
"It was the past, but now I ask you to speak, so you can speak boldly and confidently!"
"I'm afraid I might make you unhappy if I say something wrong."
"Today we are talking in private, no matter what is right or wrong, just the attitude."
Director Kang was actually playing hard to get. He was full of grievances and wanted to say that he just didn't have this chance.
Now the boss lets him talk and even encourages him to say that he is actually ten thousand willing to talk.
The reason for the pretense is just to retreat in order to advance.
"General Manager, actually... I have always been unhappy with this. Are we too indulgent in this organization? Now they are completely incapable of losing control. Not to mention control, I am afraid that one day, General Manager, you will be controlled by them."
After saying these words, Director Kang also knew that his words were too bold, and said with fear: "Manager, this is what I say from the bottom of my heart. You may think that I am alarmist, but after my observation during this period, it is indeed true.
It’s a trend.”
Jiang Yue guided Director Kang to speak confidently and boldly, his intention was self-evident, he just wanted to see if he could get some information from Director Kang's perspective.
Unexpectedly, I heard a lot of bitterness from Director Kang's mouth.
Obviously, this old guy has some opinions about that organization, but he just keeps it to himself and doesn't dare to speak out.
Jiang Yue thought for a moment and understood.
Director Kang was originally Deputy General Manager Wan's trusted subordinate. Since his association with that organization, Mr. Yue has become the person that Deputy General Manager Wan relies on most.
Director Kang is not jealous at all if Mr. Yue is the brother-in-law of Deputy General Manager Wan.
But the problem is that the deeper Deputy General Manager Wan's contact with that organization, the more he relies on Mr. Yue. Unknowingly, his status becomes lower and lower, and his sense of existence becomes lower and lower.
If Mr. Yue hadn't lost contact this time, I'm afraid I might not have brought him or anyone with me on this trip.
The reason why he can follow Deputy General Manager Wan's orders now is because Mr. Yue is not here, and Deputy General Manager Wan needs someone who is accustomed to taking orders.
If it had been before, even if Deputy General Manager Wan ordered him, he probably would not have said these words.
Because he knows that his weight is not enough and people speak lightly. Even if he has a complaint, it is best to hold it in and be careful of the trouble coming out of his mouth.
But today is different from the past.
Mr. Yue has lost contact, in case Mr. Ming disappears.
After Director Kang was called this morning, when he learned the news, he had a hunch that something might have happened to Mr. Yue and Wan Yiming, the nephew and uncle.
The man sent by Mr. Canghai just now told Deputy Manager Wan a lot. Although Director Kang was asked to evade and heard nothing, he speculated that there would be no good news.
Mr. Yue is a five-star boss of that organization, so he cannot disappear for no reason.
There was only one reason for him to completely lose contact, and that was death.
Moreover, Director Kang also looked for Yang Xiaoxiao and found that Yang Xiaoxiao's family was also missing. It was not known whether they were hiding or were silenced.
This information can explain the problem even more.
If it were an accident, it might really be an accident.
Several details in a row are so coincidental, it is definitely not as simple as an accident.
Mr. Yue's loss of contact means that the person whom Deputy General Manager Wan relies on the most is no longer there.
Then, Director Kang instinctively realized that this was his opportunity.
At this time, if he does not seek to play a more important role in front of Deputy General Manager Wan, he would be a fool.
Therefore, when he heard his boss ask about the organization's problems, especially with such a weird tone in his tone, Director Kang couldn't help but think about it.
Perhaps, after so many encounters, the General Manager finally realized that he was too deeply involved with that organization, and he still suffered a backlash.
He Kang, who has been with Deputy General Manager Wan for so many years, thinks he can still figure out the boss's thoughts.
Therefore, he thought that he should follow the boss's wishes at this time.
Jiang Yue naturally saw what Director Kang was thinking, and seeing his serious look, he felt funny in his heart.
If I remember correctly, this guy seemed loyal, but he was actually a dishonest guy.
Last time I restrained him and used the control talisman on him, this guy betrayed him on the spot. He actually confessed a lot, and even agreed to be his internal agent.
What a wonderful reaction would this guy have if he knew that the "Deputy General Manager Wan" in front of him was the one who controlled him in the first place?
Of course Jiang Yue doesn't have such a mischievous mentality.
He pretended to be Deputy General Manager Wan, so naturally he didn't stop there.
At that moment, he nodded sincerely: "Old Kang, the strong wind knows the strong grass. Only at the critical moment will you know who is loyal and who is traitorous, who is trustworthy and who is unreliable."
Director Kang was obedient and even said he didn't dare, but he was smiling secretly in his heart. It seemed that his gamble was successful.
It seems that Deputy General Manager Wan really has some criticisms of that organization and no longer trusts it as blindly as before.
Director Kang didn't find it strange.
Essentially, he understood that after Deputy General Manager Wan climbed to such a high position, he had already developed the mentality of a superior. Everyone who saw him was always polite and respectful.
The guy who didn't know etiquette just now must have rushed into Deputy General Manager Wan.
Although he is a big official, in the final analysis, Deputy General Manager Wan is not the kind of person who has a broad mind and can tolerate everyone's anger.
A small role like that could show off his face in front of him and even know the slightest thing, which shows how disrespectful that organization is to him, a dignified deputy general manager.
This is not just a question of whether you can tolerate it.
It was more a question of the organization's attitude towards him as the deputy general manager.
"Go back first."
Director Kang was thinking about it when he heard "Deputy Manager Wan" say calmly.
"General Manager, should you go home first or go back to the office building?"
"Of course I have to go back to the office building in broad daylight." Jiang Yue said displeased.
"Yes, yes." Director Kang was delighted and began to make up his mind again.
During this period, Deputy General Manager Wan had not allowed him to participate in official matters for a long time, and he was basically reduced to the status of a family butler.
At this time, I heard that I was going back to the office building. This was obviously a signal to activate someone else from Kang.
Jiang Yue was mostly silent along the way, but he did not leave Director Kang idle. There was a kind of encouragement in his words, telling him to tell the truth and speak out boldly if he had any opinions, and he would never be punished for his words.
Director Kang had been suppressing it for so long. Even though he repeatedly warned himself not to be too hasty, he still couldn't help but talk a lot as soon as he started talking.
However, Director Kang's position and structure ultimately limited his knowledge, and what he said did not contain much new information that made Jiang Yue's heart beat.
After a while, Jiang Yue arrived at the office building.
To be precise, this is actually the official office space of Star City.
As the deputy general manager of the Central South Region, Deputy General Manager Wan should not have his office here, but now Star City is in an extraordinary stage. As the leader of the region, it is only natural for him, the deputy general manager, to sit in Star City and work here.
As soon as he entered the building, Jiang Yue felt how powerful Deputy Manager Wan was.
The office staff in the building, whoever they encountered, all stopped wisely and let them go ahead.
When they arrived at the elevator entrance, the people who were waiting for the elevator very wisely gave up the elevator, allowing the leaders and his entourage to go upstairs first.
Although he was a counterfeit, in just a few minutes, Jiang Yue fully realized what official authority and majesty meant.
This also makes me realize how domineering the way the deputy general manager is acting as an official is.
In comparison, Jiang Yue was not surprised at all when he opened the door and walked into the luxurious office.
Deputy General Manager Wan, who is so particular about pomp and circumstance, would find it incredible if he had a shabby office.
Deputy General Manager Wan's secretary is another person, a beautiful woman in her twenties, dressed in standard official attire.
It is very taboo for a male leader to have a female secretary, but Deputy General Manager Wan just did it.
I don’t know if it was temporarily configured here in Star City, or if he has always brought it.
But this female secretary is very dignified, completely different from the so-called female secretaries by the bosses outside who are seductive and seductive.
Jiang Yue didn't know if there was any shady activity going on here, and he didn't care.
"General Manager, Xie Fuzheng came to see you, and Director Wang of the Materials Bureau also came..."
"Inform them and ask them to come over." Jiang Yue waved his hand.
"Lao Kang, prepare to receive him."
Jiang Yue said without hesitation, picked up the documents on the desk, and began to look through them honestly.
The documents that can be placed on the desk are basically things that can be seen in the sun. After looking through them for a while, I didn't find any particularly useful information.
This obviously did not satisfy Jiang Yue.
Soon, Xie Fuzheng arrived, as did Director Wang from the Materials Bureau.
These two are both old acquaintances of Jiang Yue.
Naturally, I have met Xie Fuzheng and Jiang Yue normally. I met him in Villa No. 8.
As for the director of the Bureau of Materials, Jiang Yue met him as Ding Youliang and was even scolded by him.
In my memory, this person was a die-hard Wan Dang who often beat Ding Youliang to sign.
It is completely different from the Xie Fuzheng in Jiang Yue's memory. The current Xie Fuzheng has a low eyebrow and looks extremely docile. Even when he saw his own father, he was not so amiable.
As for Director Wang, he was as wilted as an eggplant beaten by frost. He lowered his head and did not even dare to look at Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue was secretly surprised, what happened to these two people? Did they make some mistake? Even if you meet the leader, you don't need to be so exaggerated, right?
This is not the posture of meeting the leader, this is clearly the posture of meeting the Lord of Hell.
No, no, Jiang Yue was secretly awestruck. He had to deal with it carefully and not expose any flaws.
No matter what the reasons are, Deputy General Manager Wan must be extremely strict with his subordinates, that's for sure.
Therefore, I have to act like I am not easy to get along with.
He immediately waved his hand and motioned Director Kang and the female secretary, who were serving tea and water, to stay away.
The door was gently closed, and in front of the desk, the two of them were like the children who had made mistakes, waiting to be criticized.
Jiang Yue remained silent, staring at the two of them with a cold face, his eyes stern and cold.
"You two, who is going to talk first?"
Xie Fuzheng laughed dryly: "Otherwise, Lao Wang should come first. Lao Wang, please explain the situation clearly to the manager."
Director Wang of the Materials Bureau had a look of fear on his face. He glanced at Jiang Yue's face, hurriedly stepped away, and took a cautious step forward.
"General manager, it's true that Mr. Yiming has been to the Materials Bureau and asked Director Ding Youliang. The situation that day was like this..."
When Jiang Yue heard what this person said, he immediately understood why the other person was so frightened.
It must be someone from Deputy Manager Wan, who searched for Wan Yiming's whereabouts and finally found clues from the Materials Bureau.
