Chapter 788: The Bombshell (2)

The former master’s words had dampened the spirits of the directors, but they were not willing to acquiesce to Zhao Youlin’s status in the company. The moment Zhao Youlin took over, Zhao Youming’s position in the company would be in a very awkward situation. Their hands would also be tied, and all their previous efforts would be in vain.

Thinking of this, the few of them braced themselves and began to charge forward.

“Since everyone has nothing to say, then this matter…” the former master was just about to move on when another director interrupted, “Wait, chief director, I still have something to say. President Zhao has been in the company for many years, and his ability is obvious to everyone. Therefore, we don’t have any objections to him taking over the position of chairman, but general manager… the general manager has only been in the company for two years. Be it experience or ability, they haven’t been honed yet. I don’t think it’s appropriate to let her take on the position of president, just like that.”

“That’s right, that’s right. We think so too. The general manager’s experience is still lacking. Taking over the position of president is a little too much. It’s better to observe for a period of time before making a decision.”

“I think so too. No matter what, the general manager is still a girl. It was undeniable that there is a gap between girls and boys in all aspects. A girl’s career in the workplace has a much shorter lifespan than that of a boy. It might not be much now, but in the future, this weakness would be highlighted. I still think it’s too hasty to rashly let her take over.”

“I agree with Director Fang’s point of view. It’s not that boys are more important than girls. It’s just that girls are indeed inferior to boys in some aspects. Take the current situation as an example. The general manager is already pregnant. In a few months, she will definitely return home to recuperate. Once she returns, wouldn’t the company be leaderless? Moreover, although the general manager is the chairman’s granddaughter, she isn’t the only candidate for the chairman’s successor. I think this matter still needs to be considered carefully.”

In the end, the director seemed to be criticizing Zhao Youlin, but in fact, he was hinting it at the former master. Han Yichen and Zhao Youming were both boys. No matter how capable Zhao Youlin was, boys and girls were always different. Zhao Youlin, a girl, would not be able to sit in the position of the president of the Zhao Group no matter how hard she tried.

The former master had intended to quietly listen to the complaints of these people before he lost his temper. Who knew that these people, seeing that he was not speaking, would actually go further and further? His face immediately darkened. Just as he was about to speak, someone had already stepped forward.

“You guys look down on girls?”

A few passionate and indignant directors were startled. They had never expected that the first person to jump out at this time would actually be Han Yichen!

“We… We…” The director who had spoken the most was swept by Han Yichen’s cold gaze. His words were a little slow. He clenched his teeth and stammered, “We’re just… just stating facts. Yes, just stating facts. The general manager is still inexperienced and a girl. She has always been lacking in some aspects. Perhaps nothing has happened yet, but what about the future? A girl’s energy is limited. The general manager already has a child now and is raising a family. In the future, she will definitely allocate a certain amount of energy to take care of her family and children. At that time, the general manager will probably feel powerless.”

“Who knows what will happen in the future? Do you dare to guarantee that in the next ten, twenty, or thirty years, Youlin will definitely not be able to take on a big responsibility? Or do you think that you have the ability, or that someone else in this company has the ability to sit in this position?”

When Han Yichen said this, he looked at Zhao Youming, who was not far away, as if he was implying something. Zhao Youming suddenly met the disdain in Han Yichen’s eyes and felt a burning sensation on his face. He felt as if he had been slapped again. His hands unconsciously tightened a little.

“Although I’m an outsider, I still feel that I need to help you correct your words. You just said that when a girl has a child and a family, she will spend some of her energy on family and children. In this regard, I just want to say that no matter if it’s a woman or a man, as long as they have a family and children, who wouldn’t spend some of their energy on family and children? Can you guarantee that all chief directors will never marry or have children in their entire lives? How did you come to such a conclusion? I’m a little curious. Don’t you have a wife and children at home?”

Ye Yan’s sudden outburst stunned everyone present. The director, who had been full of poise and had a smug look on his face, blushed when he was stopped by Ye Yan. He really could not refute his words.

Not refuting was equivalent to him slapping his own face. After speaking with so many people present, he was also someone who had a wife and children. It would not be long before he would be called a scumbag who did not care about his family at all!

Although there were fewer women than men in power in the partner company, there were still some. When the gender issue to attack Zhao Youlin was raised, it had unknowingly offended these people. At that moment, chilly gazes were cast over from all directions, causing the few of them to fall even more silent.

The former master looked at the two young men who had stood up against the arrogant directors until they were speechless. A faint smile flashed across his eyes.

“President Ye is right. Regardless of whether it is a man or a woman, they will naturally take care of their families. This is not a reason for you to oppose Youlin. Moreover, although Youlin has only been in the company for a short period of time and her experience is still shallow, there are some people whose talents have little to do with time and experience. Youlin may be lacking in experience, but is she the only one heading the company? Shunrong is around. Will Shunrong not help her?”

“But…”

The few directors were still unwilling to give up and wanted to continue struggling. The former master did not intend to continue listening to them. “Alright, this matter has been decided. In the next week, I will hand it all to Shunrong. In the future, if you have any problems, just look for him. There’s no need to ask for my opinion.”

The few directors’ unsaid words were stuck in their throats. When they realized that their immediate superior had changed, they turned to look at Zhao Shunrong’s face. Suddenly, a chill ran down their backs. They suddenly had a bad feeling about the future.

Zhao Youming saw that they had backed out and knew that this matter was probably a foregone conclusion. His heart trembled all the more.
