Under One Person: The End of Technique, Company Building

"If I don't do it, there will be even bigger trouble in the future. The more people who know Feng Baobao's secret, the greater the risk to the North China branch. If someone uses Feng Baobao's identity to cause trouble, there will always be considerable problems in the future."

Zhuge Qi suddenly smiled, a smile more relaxed than before. "The company wants to promote the integration of superhumans and ordinary people, break the rules of the old aristocratic families, and establish a new governance order for superhumans. This is not something that can be accomplished by sitting down for tea and having a meeting."

Someone has to be the one to push the wall down. The one who pushes the wall down will definitely get hit by the bricks first. You promoted me to head of the Extraordinary Persons Affairs Department, isn't it because you know I'm willing to be the one to push the wall down?

Zhao Fangxu did not answer.

Because what the other party said was indeed true. The people in the company who were willing to do this did not have Zhuge Qi's background, and people with Zhuge Qi's background would generally not be willing to do this kind of thing.

When the other party brought the Zhuge family onto the company's big ship, it did indeed solve my biggest problem.

This is something everyone has always tacitly agreed upon.

The office remained quiet for a long time.

"You've caused a lot of trouble this time," Zhao Fangxu finally spoke. "Do you know that someone left a message during the board meeting this morning?"

"Someone has implied that your actions in Tianjin exceeded the scope of the company's authorization, and that you directly clashed with the Ten Elders without the board's approval, which constitutes an 'overstepping of authority'."

Zhuge Qi raised an eyebrow slightly, not asking any further questions, but his mind was already racing.

The board of directors consists of six members, including General Manager Zhao, each responsible for different areas.

Chairman Bi is in charge of special agents and undercover agents; Chairman Huang is in charge of the research and development department; Chairman Su is in charge of dealing with the Ten Elders, who are also the official forces that deal with ordinary people; Chairman Fei is in charge of interrogation and some personnel at headquarters; and there is also a director who oversees finances.

It seems that Director Fei has always had some complaints about me, and it was probably the other party who brought it up. It looks like I really need to be more careful in my future actions.

Zhuge Qi made a mental note of this, but remained outwardly calm: "I understand. I will pay attention to the methods and approaches in the future."

However, although he said that, he didn't really care about it.

After all, President Zhao had once taught him a lesson.

When working at headquarters, you either don't do anything at all, or you do it thoroughly. If you do it thoroughly, don't be afraid of others digging into your accounts. The clearer your accounts are, the less likely others will dare to question them.

As long as the process is just, every matter is documented and traceable, every account is clearly recorded, approvals are granted where necessary, and records are kept where appropriate, let them look at it if they want, and what they find will be compliant with regulations, then there is room for maneuver in everything.

If you really want to do something big, you need to learn to leverage the prevailing trends.

"Just put your work aside this week and give yourself a break. Don't push yourself too hard. You don't need to worry about anything else."

"Understood, thank you for your understanding, General Zhao." Zhuge Qi understood that the other party's words were meant to smooth things over for him.

He wouldn't have to bear the consequences of internal attacks within the company or pressure from external forces.

"Regarding the lost files in North China, you didn't seem to get involved much. Why?" Zhao Fangxu hesitated for a moment before finally asking this question.

I was still a little confused because I hadn't heard anything about it from the other party, but now that they weren't saying anything, I decided to take the initiative and ask.

He had been paying close attention to the developments in North China, as they involved many things.

Although the official explanation is that someone from Quanxing infiltrated the company's archives and stole files, most people agree that there is a mole within the company.

Moreover, this mole probably holds a high position.

In fact, many people have already started investigating this matter, but the actions are very small, and they are not placing all their hopes on the self-investigation in North China.

This also includes Zhao Fangxu himself.

Besides sending Zhuge Qi to North China, Zhao Fangxu also had a backup plan. At the same time, he was also worried that the other party might cause too much trouble and he couldn't cover it up, so he was always paying attention.

"Well, actually it's because I already have the answer. However, that person's position is very sensitive, and I'm afraid I can't make a conclusion based on mere suspicion. I don't have any substantial evidence right now, so saying anything wouldn't be very meaningful and would only interfere with your judgment, Mr. Zhao."

Zhuge Qi mentioned this with some helplessness, then looked at Zhao Fangxu with an inquiring gaze, "But since you brought it up, I think I should give you a heads-up. I said, the enemy is in the board of directors."

Zhao Fangxu frowned, speaking slowly and clearly, "You've already offended two of the Ten Elders, incurred the wrath of the North China branch, and created potential enemies within the board of directors. If you're going to investigate further into the board—"

"You absolutely cannot go in that direction before you have solid evidence. If you touch one person on the board, it will alarm everyone. Your foundation is not strong enough yet. If you make a mistake, no one can protect you."

"I know, I know what I'm doing."

Zhuge Qi leaned back in his chair, his posture more relaxed. "I won't do anything until I have irrefutable evidence, but I will continue to look for opportunities."

After all, he is a director. If he makes accusations without concrete evidence, it's no different from suicide, even if he has General Manager Zhao backing him up.

However, as long as you keep an eye on them, you'll eventually be able to wait for them to show their true colors.

Zhao Fangxu stared at him for a long while, then sighed deeply, "I hope you really know what's going on in your heart."

Although the other party's answer was somewhat unexpected, it was also reasonable.

I did suspect that the mole might be from a senior executive in the company, but I didn't expect that the other party would point the finger at the board of directors as soon as they opened their mouth.

"So, who is that person?"

"Is Mr. Zhao sure you want to ask?" Zhuge Qi hesitated at this point.

Although he was 70% certain and felt that President Zhao still trusted him enough, the nature of the matter changed once the person said it.

"Don't worry, I will make my own judgment and will not act arbitrarily just because you mentioned a name." Zhao Fangxu understood the other party's concerns but did not care.

Since things have come to this point, we can't pretend to be confused anymore.

The board of directors has only six members, which is already a very small number. If you exclude those who are absolutely certain that there will be no problems and absolutely cannot have any problems, then the scope itself is small enough.

Therefore, even if you hear the answer, it won't affect your judgment.

Seeing the other party's attitude, Zhuge Qi had no worries, knowing that President Zhao would definitely know what he was doing and there was no need for him to worry.

So he lowered his voice and said.

"Chairman Bi, Bi Youlong."
