Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!-Chapter 660 - Joining Forces in Oversight

Chapter 660: Chapter 660 Joining Forces in Oversight

Xu Yang frowned slightly, “Speak your mind; don’t beat around the bush. Today I encountered this Shao Dazhi, and he left a very poor impression on me: arrogant and overbearing, one would think he’s the company’s owner. I don’t understand how you could hire such a person. Does he have exceptional abilities? Abilities so outstanding that you would overlook these flaws?”

He described the encounter he had that day.

Lu Yangping gave a bitter smile and could only speak the truth, “President Xu, Shao Dazhi was brought in by President He’s intervention. I actually disagreed with the decision because Shao Dazhi’s abilities are just mediocre. Moreover, at his last job, he was fired for sexually harassing a female employee.”

The President He he mentioned was the company’s Vice-President He Chengan, which Xu Yang was aware of.

Xu Yang’s face turned a shade darker, “Why would President He meddle and bring someone like that into the company? Is he planning to let such a person wreak havoc here? How is he related to Shao Dazhi?”

Lu Yangping replied with bitterness, “According to President He, Shao Dazhi is his wife’s cousin. I had no choice but to hire him.”

...

Xu Yang nodded, “I see. It seems President He treats our company like a dumping ground, bringing in whoever he pleases. Have you not reported this to President Zhao? What did President Zhao say?”

Lu Yangping said, “At that time, President Zhao happened to be on a business trip, and President He said he would communicate with President Zhao, who would certainly give him face. That’s how Shao Dazhi was brought in. Later when President Zhao returned, I reported to him. President Zhao was unhappy, saying President He had not told him the truth; he had only mentioned someone who wanted to switch jobs from a managerial position at another company. He didn’t elaborate further. After I informed President Zhao about Shao Dazhi’s background, he realized he had been misled by President He and was not pleased. However, President Zhao said, since the person had already been hired, we should observe him for a while. If he truly does something detrimental to the company, we can then dismiss him, and hold He Chengan accountable as well.”

Xu Yang nodded.

His father-in-law’s handling of the matter wasn’t wrong.

After all, the person had already been hired.

If we were to dismiss him immediately, it would not bode well for the company’s workflow or the relationship between his father-in-law and He Chengan.

However, now that Shao Dazhi had already shown such tendencies, action needed to be taken.

Xu Yang asked, “How has Shao Dazhi been performing recently?”

Lu Yangping shook his head with a wry smile: “Shao Dazhi acts without any restraint, leaning on President He’s support. He harasses the female staff from time to time, and some have complained to me.”

Xu Yang said, “You’re a manager. Such a person should be fired immediately. Is President He obstructing this?”

Lu Yangping nodded, “Yes, I initially wanted to fire him, but President He intervened. I even approached President Zhao the day before yesterday, saying that if this continues, it would lead to the staff’s disappointment in the company. In front of me, President Zhao called President He to his office, addressed Shao Dazhi’s issues, and President He asked to give Shao Dazhi another chance, saying if Shao Dazhi reoffends, he would be fired and He would not intercede again.”

Xu Yang said, “It seems either President He didn’t convey the message, or he did, but Shao Dazhi hasn’t reined in his behavior, hence he continues as before.”

Lu Yangping nodded, “That appears to be the case.”

Xu Yang said, “It seems in President He’s eyes, the company’s interests are not important, as long as his personal interests are satisfied.”

Lu Yangping remained silent.

Now that Xu Yang was aware of the situation, how to deal with it would be up to him.

Xu Yang pondered for a moment and said, “Here’s what you’ll do in the upcoming interview…”

He shared his idea, then added, “I do want to see how Shao Dazhi will behave and whether He Chengan will continue to intervene if you dismiss Shao Dazhi. This is the last chance I’m giving him; let’s see if he can seize it.”

Lu Yangping nodded, “Alright, I’ll follow your instructions. I hope President He can realize his proper place.”

…

Shao Dazhi, accompanied by a staff member from the HR department, arrived at a conference room.

He sat down and said, “You take the resumes and call them in. We can start with groups of two; there’s no need for individual interviews at this stage.”

The HR staff member said, “Alright.”

Taking the resumes, the HR staff member went to the waiting room where the job applicants were gathered.

“The interview is starting. When I call your name, please follow me. Wang Wu, Zhou Qian.”

The two whose names were called stood up immediately and followed the staff member to the conference room where Lu Yangping was conducting interviews.

Lu Yangping looked at the two candidates, ready to ask questions, when suddenly someone knocked on the door and entered.

“Lu Yangping, what brings you here?” Shao Dazhi frowned upon seeing the newcomer.

The person who came was none other than Lu Yangping.

From how he addressed Lu Yangping, it was clear that he didn’t hold much respect for his direct superior.

He simply called the direct superior by name.

Shao Dazhi felt that with a deputy general manager who was his cousin-in-law as a backer, he didn’t need to respect Lu Yangping.

In fact, his goal was to push Lu Yangping out with He Chengan’s support and take his place.

“Shao Dazhi, have the interviews started?” Despite being dissatisfied with Shao Dazhi’s attitude, Lu Yangping didn’t say much about it and even looked cheerful.

Shao Dazhi was definitely doomed, dismissal was certain, and there was no need to quibble with such a person.

Perhaps, He Chengan might even be implicated by Shao Dazhi.

“Yeah, what are you here for?” Shao Dazhi said.

“The recruits today will be the backbone of our company in the future, so I’ll join you in supervising,” Lu Yangping said with a smile.

“Is that necessary?” Shao Dazhi frowned.

“It is necessary.” Lu Yangping directly sat down next to Shao Dazhi, not giving him any chance to refuse.

In reality, regardless of Shao Dazhi’s refusal, Lu Yangping would stay there.

This was what Xu Yang had instructed him to do.

Moreover, since Shao Dazhi was his subordinate, it was unlikely that he would forcefully exclude him from such a minor matter.

Indeed, even though Shao Dazhi felt annoyed by Lu Yangping’s arrival, seeing that Lu Yangping had already taken a seat, Shao Dazhi couldn’t really say anything. He couldn’t possibly drive Lu Yangping away by force.

No matter what, Lu Yangping was his direct superior, and he couldn’t go too far.

It was just a joint interview, nothing more.

With that thought, Shao Dazhi then said, “Fine, let’s conduct the interview together.”

Lu Yangping looked toward the two interviewees and said with a smile, “Don’t be nervous. Let me introduce myself, I am the Human Resources Manager Lu Yangping, and this is the Human Resources Supervisor Shao Dazhi. Originally, he was going to conduct the interview alone, but now we are interviewing together. Don’t be nervous, this has nothing to do with you. You just need to demonstrate your abilities, and as long as you are capable, our Jiang Di Lao Company welcomes you to join.”

The two interviewees, having heard the dialogue between the two, knew that their relationship must not be very good.

However, that wasn’t their concern. As Lu Yangping had said, they just needed to show their own abilities.

Then came the interview segment.

Both Lu Yangping and Shao Dazhi asked some questions, and the two interviewees performed excellently, passing the preliminary round and heading back to the conference room to wait for the second round of interviews.

The interviews continued without interruption.

Soon it was Cao Xiaobo’s turn.

It was uncertain whether it was deliberate, but Cao Xiaobo and Gu Caiwei came in together for the interview.

Lu Yangping and Shao Dazhi went through the usual set of questions.

Gu Caiwei answered perfectly, earning Lu Yangping’s continuous praise.

Cao Xiaobo’s answers, on the other hand, were somewhat unsatisfactory, either failing to respond properly or giving answers that were off the mark.

After the interview concluded, Lu Yangping’s decision was to eliminate Cao Xiaobo, while Gu Caiwei passed the interview.

Shao Dazhi’s decision was the exact opposite.

This was when the conflict between the two erupted.
