Chapter 63 - The First All-Employee Meeting
“Zhang Tao, Chi Wei, it seems you’ve done a fantastic job over the past two days. No one has intruded into the company… Excellent, excellent. With the two of you being so reliable in the Security Department, I can rest easy!”
Standing before Zhang Tao and Chi Wei, Meng Xu nodded in satisfaction, patting their shoulders to show his appreciation.
Zhang Tao and Chi Wei, although zombies, seemed weak, pitiful, and helpless, cornered by Meng Xu. Their bodies trembled, unable to move, as Meng Xu patted their shoulders.
Zhang Lunping, who had been observing, wasn’t too surprised by anything Meng Xu did now. He clapped enthusiastically as if to applaud Chairman Meng’s hands-on approach to guiding the security guards.
On the other hand, Zhou Yanni was utterly shocked.
Clutching her child tightly, she incredulously whispered to Zhang Lunping, “Is this real? Why aren’t the zombies attacking us…? Is this normal?”
Zhou Yanni was clearly at a loss for words.
Despite feeling the absurdity of the scene, Zhang Lunping took a deep breath and responded with a line that he himself found laughable, “Why wouldn’t it be normal? It’s common for a boss to supervise his employees’ work. Don’t be surprised by that.”
Zhou Yanni: ?
She felt her husband had become somewhat unfamiliar.
Everything around seemed increasingly terrifying.
Peace and Order Group?
Could this be some sort of organization like Umbrella Corporation?
Could the zombie virus have originated here?!
The fear in Zhou Yanni’s heart grew stronger, but holding her child, she couldn’t show her fear and helplessness.
“Boss, you’re back!”
Suddenly, a clear voice echoed from the fourth-floor office, grabbing everyone’s attention.
Shen Zhaozhao came bustling out of the office, looking quite excited at Meng Xu’s return. She spoke eagerly, “The power went out last night, and I only completed half of the task you gave me. It seems the power won’t be back anytime soon. What should we do now?”
She noticed the three new arrivals but remained genuinely joyous.
After all, in this terrifying environment, with incessant screeches at night and the occasional banging outside the office, it had been nerve-wracking.
Enduring such an environment alone was too much!
She finally saw the boss return and was moved to the point of tears.
Hearing Shen Zhaozhao, Meng Xu turned away from Zhang Tao and Chi Wei, sighing, “So the power’s out here too.”
It seemed like a widespread power outage, not just in the residential area.
The power plant likely couldn’t hold out any longer.
He wondered about other chain reactions… but with Taoxian’s safe zone established, their priority would be to restore power and water, gradually clearing larger safe areas, right?
Satisfied, Meng Xu nodded, then said, “This is Zhang Lunping, and that’s Zhou Yanni. They are the company’s new interns. Shen Zhaozhao, print out two contracts and have them signed. Intern salary is uniformly eight thousand yuan.”
“Boss, we have no power…”
Before Shen Zhaozhao could finish speaking, Meng Xu interrupted, “If there’s no power, then hand-copy it! Keep it simple! Is this the best a grad student from Magic City University can do?! Starting now, your salary is re-evaluated. Giving you twenty thousand a month is a waste. Your new salary is… ten thousand!”
Hearing Meng Xu’s rebuke, Shen Zhaozhao surprisingly felt a sense of security and nodded repeatedly. She then led Zhang Lunping and Zhou Yanni inside to start hand-copying the contracts. Procedures must be followed.
“Oh, and don’t forget to hand-copy contracts for Chi Wei and Zhang Tao too. No need to worry about IDs—they’re legally dead since they turned into zombies.” Meng Xu suddenly remembered, adding, “Also, write contracts for Jiang Xiaoqiu and Li Xiang, who are on their way as well!”
Meng Xu stretched.
Now that he was back, he could resume his unfinished tasks.
An intense business warfare with ‘Wanxiang International’ was on the horizon. Once 60% of their employees left, the company would collapse!
Thinking this, Meng Xu’s determination surged, his fire axe eager for action.
As an intellectual talent, Meng Xu intended to vigorously kick off this business war by wielding his fire axe!
【All company formalities are completed, and the business is flourishing. You can hold an all-employee meeting now to restructure the organization and appoint a ‘President’ or ‘Vice President’ for corporate management. From now on, you only need to set company policies and enjoy life, letting wealth multiply! After all, you’ve never seen a wealthy person spending every day in the office, right?】
【Task Triggered: Hold an Employee Meeting】
【Task Rewards: Chairman Experience +50, Points +10, Allocatable Attribute Points +3.】
Seeing the generous task rewards, Meng Xu couldn’t help but swallow.
“Alright, let’s hold the employee meeting!”
Without hesitation, Meng Xu chose to hold the meeting.
A chairman who doesn’t hold meetings isn’t a good chairman.
Meng Xu promptly patted Zhang Tao and Chi Wei, “Come, let’s go in and hold the meeting.”
“Roar?”
Zhang Tao and Chi Wei trembled, growling uncertainly, not understanding Meng Xu’s intentions. Meng Xu casually untied their ropes and led the two zombies to the office.
As he entered, he saw the trio hand-copying contracts. Meng Xu knocked on the wooden door and said, “Get the conference room ready; we’re holding a meeting.”
Conference room? Where do we get a conference room from?
Shen Zhaozhao was momentarily stunned, glancing around in confusion. Zhang Lunping quickly pushed a few desks together, arranged chairs in rows, and tidied up.
Meng Xu watched, very satisfied, but the roaring from the adjacent office annoyed him. He irritatedly grabbed his axe and kicked open the door, “Can you show some manners?! We’re trying to hold a meeting here; can’t you zombies be quiet?!”
With that, he swiftly decapitated the zombies locked inside the adjoining office with his axe.
“No manners!”
Meng Xu scoffed disdainfully.
He despised ill-mannered zombies.
Unlike himself, he had manners.
What kind of manners?
Of course, physical fitness.
Meng Xu’s physical fitness was now top-notch.
