Chapter 201:I Don’t Want Anything To Happen To Him

The speculations of the secretaries were just casual chatter.
In fact, as long as the company gave the family the appropriate compensation as soon as possible, handled it properly and reduced the impact, this matter was not a big deal.
Other than the new employees who were a little uneasy, most of the old employees would not have any negative emotions.
This was because the old employees knew very well that Jiangyuan Corporation was not a company that forced employees to work overtime.
However, Song Qingyou, who knew that there was a problem with the surveillance cameras, was far less optimistic.
After hearing Lin Hui and the others mention the shareholders who were unhappy with Jiang Zhihan and the Old Master Jiang who was said to have a bad relationship with Jiang Zhihan, Song Qingyou felt that this matter wouldn’t end so easily.
Sure enough, that afternoon, ttjiangyuan Group employee’s sudden death# shot up to the headlines like a rocket.
Luo Zhen’s wife, Cao Manli, had posted a long article on various social media platforms, titled “Big companies disregard human lives. How will my daughter and I live after losing my husband, her father?!”
The article first talked about her situation. She said that her hand had been seriously injured, her education was not high, and she had been a housewife all these years. She did not have the ability to find a job to raise her seven-year-old daughter.
Then, she told the reporters about Luo Zhen. She said that Luo Zhen was an employee of Jiangyuan Corporation. He was very honest and diligent, but he had been exploited and bullied in the company. Most of the work in the department was done by Luo Zhen. He worked overtime almost every day. Sometimes, he had to work overtime even when he went home. He had no rest time at all.
Just this morning, her husband, Luo Zhen, was found dead in the company.
There were no flowery words in the article, but every word was tearful.
At the end of the article, there was a picture of Cao Manli’s ID card to prove that she was telling the truth.
The other photo was a bottle of pesticide, which corresponded to the last sentence of the article, “If Jiangyuan Corporation can’t give a satisfactory answer to us, we can only die!”
That was a lot of lives!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce the article was posted, it immediately caused a huge wave.
As a well-known company in the country, the Jiangyuan Corporation had a lot of attention. A big incident like the sudden death of an employee in the headquarters would definitely attract a large wave of onlookers.
In addition, it was easy for people to sympathize with the disadvantaged.
Compared to a big company like the Jiangyuan Corporation, Cao Manli and her daughter were definitely at a disadvantage.
Not to mention, this kind of thing easily resonated with the working people. They thought that this was the oppression of the workers.
Even though some media outlets did not dare to make this post popular because of the huge Jiangyuan Corporation, many people took the initiative to add fuel to the fire.
Not long after, someone pulled a banner in front of the company building and asked Jiangyuan Corporation to give the Luo family an explanation.
Even though the Jiangyuan Corporation had issued an official statement as soon as the post became popular and emphasized that the company never forced employees to work overtime, it did not have any effect.
What came was only countless slanders and curses.
[ Does a big company have no regard for human lives?]
[ No forced overtime. Does that mean that you won’t get any overtime pay? I’ll be fired before I finish my work, and I’ll still have to ‘volunteer’ to work overtime!]
[ Someone has already died suddenly, and you’re still saying that your employees don’t need to work overtime. Why don’t you just say that the employee’s health was too poor and he died suddenly for no reason?]
[ We must resolutely boycott this inhumane company! Don’t buy any of Jiangyuan Corporation’s products!]
Fang Yan asked the Public Relations team to quickly think of a way to solve the problem.
He continued to contact Cao Manli.
During this period, Fang Yan also accepted interviews from the media.
However, not only did all the efforts of the company go to waste, but they were also questioned. Why didn’t the company’s CEO personally come forward to express his stance when such a big thing had happened?
The public opinion against Jiang Zhihan started to brew.
Fang Yan received calls from shareholders asking why Jiang Zhihan didn’t come forward to solve the problem.
As Lin Hui and the others had discussed, things started to develop in a way that was unfavorable to Jiang Zhihan.
Song Qingyou didn’t want anything to happen to Jiang Zhihan.
Whether it was as a business partner.
Or as a friend.
Seeing that the topic #Jiangyuan Corporation’s CEO disregards human lives# had appeared on the hot search, Song Qingyou couldn’t sit still anymore.
She looked for Fang Yan, who was in a terrible state, and asked him what was going on.
“The shareholders are all urging us to solve the problem. Cao Manli only received a call once, saying that her husband is dead. She wants everyone to know about this so that the public can know our true colors.”
When Fang Yan had heard about this, he was so angry that he almost laughed in fury.
“So righteous?” Song Qingyou frowned.
“Who knows if it’s righteous or if she wants to take the opportunity to get more money?”
Fang Yan massaged his temples. “There’s media exposure. As long as she works with them, she can make a fortune again.”
He was talking about the interview about Cao Manli that was published by a newspaper in the afternoon. It even took a photo of someone holding a banner at the entrance of Jiangyuan Group and earned enough traffic.
“Where’s Jiang Zhihan?” Song Qingyou asked the crucial question.
If someone else had asked, Fang Yan might have been able to lie and fool them.
But Song Qingyou was different.
“Mr. Jiang fainted again. He’s in the hospital now,” he said after a few seconds of hesitation.
Song Qingyou had already guessed it, but hearing Fang Yan admit it with her own ears, her heart still sank.
Her brain was spinning rapidly, trying to think of a way to handle the situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen she took out her phone to browse the news and saw Cao Manli’s photo, Song Qingyou suddenly asked,”
“Is Luo Zhen’s salary high?”
Fang Yan raised his head.
“There are only three people in the Luo family? Are there any old people?”
“Only a family of three.”
“Is anyone sick?”
“No, there isn’t.”
Fang Yan shook his head. “Is there a problem?”
Song Qingyou showed Cao Manli’s photo to Fang Yan. “She’s wearing ordinary clothes and no expensive jewelry. Her skin doesn’t look like it’s been specially taken care of.”
“Even if there’s a mortgage, it should be enough for a family of three to spend tens of thousands a month. However, according to our speculation, Luo Zhen was also taking on jobs outside in private…”
If Luo Zhen wasn’t a masochist or had a problem, he wouldn’t have tortured himself to the point of sudden death.
Unless someone in the family spent money extravagantly.
His daughter was only seven years old, and the person who spent the money could only be Cao Manli.
Fang Yan immediately figured out the problem with Song Qingyou’s reminder.
“She doesn’t wear any branded clothes. She’s either trying to gain sympathy or there’s something else going on.”
Fang Yan said, “I’ll get someone to investigate Cao Manli immediately.”
Song Qingyou nodded. “As soon as possible.”
If the shareholders of the company were behind this, perhaps if Fang Yan was a little slow, Jiang Zhihan’s position as the CEO would be in danger..
