Chapter 265 Drawing Fire From the Bottom of the Cauldron

Wolverine finally ran away before the crowd surrounded him, but his image was quickly posted throughout the community, with red pen markings next to it:

Thief!

The security guards and the public were still half-convinced that Wolverine was a thief. After all, people who steal air conditioners are so weird these days.

But after seeing Wolverine's face from the surveillance camera, they all decided that he was the thief. There was nothing they could do. How could a hairless, bald guy not make people wary?

So in Ye Tianlong's vivid description, everyone finally put Wolverine on the community's blacklist.

The security guards not only posted his image on various bulletin boards, but also distributed it to owners entering and exiting at the door. Even the begging members of the Flying Dragon Gang all had an image of Wolverine in their hands.

Fortunately, Wolverine left the community immediately, otherwise he would have probably vomited three liters of blood knowing that he, who was admired by all the people of the East, had become a thief.

After repelling Wolverine, Ye Tianlong bought four dishes and one soup and went upstairs to resolve Zhao Keke's embarrassment and Chen Ling'er's suspicion.

Tell Zhao Keke that when he went to take a shower just now, he felt bored staying at home and was a little hungry, so he went down to buy something.

This explanation dispelled Chen Ling'er and Hua Ruyu's suspicions. Zhao Keke also showed great gratitude, and then the four of them sat down to have lunch.

After lunch, Ye Tianlong got up and returned to the company. His original intention was to let the three girls rest at home and relieve Zhao Keke's mood.

However, the three women insisted on going out to visit customers and told Ye Tianlong that they should work hard and complete their results to repay Ye Tianlong. Ye Tianlong had no choice but to send them to a nearby subway station.

At 2:30 in the afternoon, Ye Tianlong appeared on the seventeenth floor. He leaned on his office chair and handled more than a dozen matters.

Then, he remembered Lin Chenxue's mission, the 1.8 billion performance. Although Lin Chenxue asked him to do his best, Ye Tianlong still hoped to complete it.

In his life dictionary, habits make every task have a good result.

But when he turned on the surveillance camera and scanned the business hall, he found that almost all of the two hundred salesmen were sitting on their chairs, listless and depressed.

During Wang Dawei's time, the hall should be at least half empty at this moment. The salesmen were either visiting customers or on their way to visit.

But now, everyone is left to eat and wait to die.

"If this continues, let alone 1.8 billion, I'm afraid we won't be able to pay out bonuses."

Ye Tianlong rubbed his head and sighed. After thinking for a while, he called in the twenty team leaders.

The twenty team leaders quickly stood up respectfully, Wang Dawei was dismissed, Liu Yongcai was arrested, and Huayao became Lin Chenxue's world.

Ye Tianlong is Lin Chenxue's celebrity and business minister. Naturally, they don't dare to fight like before. Ye Tianlong didn't talk nonsense and said it directly:

“The company is having a tough time right now.”

He tapped the business report with his fingers: "Mr. Lin and the others have discussed it and plan to lay off 30% of the staff. In other words, at least 60 people will have to leave."

"Twenty groups, each person will give me the names of three people before five o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

Ye Tianlong's tone was very strong: "You can also write your own for these three names."

Upon hearing Ye Tianlong's announcement, the twenty team leaders immediately shouted:

"What? Layoffs? Layoffs at this time?"

"And lay off 30% of the staff? How can this be done?"

"Yes, it's the end of the year. If we lay off people like this, won't we be drinking from the northwest wind?"

This shout also attracted the attention of the salesmen outside the office. They all came over to explore what was going on. They all became excited when they heard that layoffs were about to be laid off.

If they had not known that Ye Tianlong had a problem, they might have rushed in and demolished the office. Noise and anger kept pouring in from outside:

"Elimination from the bottom position is already cruel, and now we are laying off 30% of our employees. What a bastard."

"Yeah, how can we survive? Come on, let's go find Mr. Lin and Mr. Rong."

Two hundred men and women opened their doors in protest.

"Looking for Mr. Lin? Looking for Mr. Rong? Are you embarrassed?"

Ye Tianlong leaned back on his seat, ignoring the turbulent crowd, and just pointed at the report on the table: "There are two hundred people, the basic salary is five thousand, and the salary for you will be twelve million a year."

"Including venue fees, water and electricity fees, advertising fees, property fees, and five insurances and one housing fund, the company will need 20 million a year to support you."

"But you two hundred people can't even achieve a performance of one billion a year. How dare you make such a fuss? How dare you complain?"

Ye Tianlong's voice was low: "The company's sales are one billion, and the profit is as high as 100 million. You took more than 50 million in commission, plus 20 million fixed costs, how much money is left in the company?"

"There are only 30 million left. After deducting the advertising and salaries of other colleagues, Huayao will basically make wedding clothes for you."

"Of course, if your sales really reach one billion, I can still explain this profit to Mr. Lin and his company."

"But look at our performance this year as of yesterday. How much is it? Six hundred million."

"What does this sales mean? The company paid your wages out of its own pocket."

Ye Tianlong slammed the table and shouted: "If we don't cut off 30% of you, the company will suffer from the northwest wind, and may even go bankrupt."

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience became quiet, looking a little embarrassed. Everyone can calculate the effort and gain.

They all knew whether the business they pulled and the salary commission were proportional. They also knew whether Ye Tianlong was lying or not. He was just laying off 30% of his staff, which was too much pressure.

If you are fired by the company at this time, you will not only lose a lot of income, but it will also take three months to find a job. Not many companies recruit employees at the end of the year.

"Of course, I also know that layoffs at this time will be very harmful to everyone. Everyone has to support their families. Without a job, there will be a lot of pressure."

Seeing that everyone was silent, Ye Tianlong's expression also softened:

"But the company really can't afford everyone's salary now. If you were Chairman Lin, would you spend money to supplement the loss-making business like this?"

A team leader hesitated for a moment, then struggled to say: "Minister Ye, we can reduce the basic salary by 20% to reduce the company's costs."

"Twenty percent is not enough. You need 30% no matter what. Minister Ye, just tell the company that laying off 30% of employees is the same as cutting salaries by 30%."

Other team leaders also echoed: "We are willing to cut salaries to tide over the difficulties."

Although a 30% salary cut is hurtful, at least there is still a living, and a little better performance can make up for it, which is ten times a hundred times better than outright layoffs.

Ye Tianlong didn't say anything, just listened to everyone's opinions. Fifteen minutes later, he looked at everyone with bright eyes:

"Although I think Mr. Lin will not change his orders overnight, and a salary cut will only address the root cause rather than the symptoms. But for everyone's sake, I am willing to go to Mr. Lin, even if I get scolded by her."

"There's no reason. I just think it's not easy for everyone."

Ye Tianlong waved his fist: "Besides, we have to sing together to win through love and hard work."

Many people straightened their bodies slightly, with a touch of pride and pride on their faces. They were people who had sung with Ye Tianlong.

"Everyone, wait for me for half an hour. I went to Mr. Lin last time."

Ye Tianlong landed loudly: "I will definitely bring you good results. If I can't do it, I will be the first to resign."

The two hundred people were all extremely moved, watching Ye Tianlong leave with moist eyes...
