Chapter 686 The temptation of the outside world

…

"Wow…!"

Loud cries broke the silence of the night, and there were quarrels in this luxurious manor in Atherton.

"Tim, why did you hit him?"

Emily put her arms around the child and glared at her husband opposite.

"Look, he made a mess of my study, and I can't find many of my documents. Those are important documents that I will use for work tomorrow, important documents, understand?" Tim George said angrily.

"Chris is only three years old and he doesn't know anything. By comparison, you are already an adult, shouldn't it be your responsibility to put away important documents?...Come on, Chris, let's go out!"

Looking at the back of his wife turning away, Tim George took a deep breath and suppressed the surging anger on his face.

"Huh...! What's wrong with me?...Tingling."

Hearing the ringing of the phone, he turned around and took the phone on his desk into his hand. However, when he saw the caller ID, there was a hint of hesitation on his face. After hesitating for a while, he pressed the answer button.

"Hey!"

"Mr. George, I heard that you were offended by your subordinates at the morning meeting?" A thick, hoarse voice rang on the phone.

"How did you know?" Tim George's face changed.

"At Ruby, you're not the only person we know!"

"If that's the case, why did you come to me?"

"As a veteran who has followed Bruce Guo since the beginning of his business, and has been in charge of LinkedIn and the later Ruby Company, you know his development strategy and industry layout best. We need such a you to help us run the company."

"You can't buy ruby ​​and end up trying to create the same, is that possible?" Tim George quipped.

"Mr. George has no confidence in his abilities?"

Tim George instantly fell silent. Does he have confidence in himself? Of course, there is no doubt about that. But if compared to the figure that shrouded the Ruby Company from beginning to end, like a giant pillar, he really didn't have the slightest confidence that he would be stronger than the other party.

The man behind the phone apparently sensed the change in his mood, too.

"Mr. George, although Ruby is developing very well, the future is also highly anticipated. But people will think that it is the credit of Bruce Guo. As for you, you are just an ordinary executor. No one will care that you have worked hard for Ruby all these years. How precious is the hard work and dedication for the development of the company. Even Bruce Guo doesn't care, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten even a share of Ruby's original stock up to now."

"Before the company goes public, it will receive equity rewards, and he has never broken his promise." Tim George said coldly.

"Really? If Ruby is not listed for six years, seven years, or even longer, are you willing to wait? Not to mention the variables in the middle, when the top executives of other Internet companies are already worth billions and enter the upper class, You're still waiting for the company to go public with a salary of $1.2 million a year, and you may even be kicked out of the company at some stage. Gee... Your loyalty is really cheap, Mr. George."

Tim George's face changed, showing his inner restlessness.

"…we're on a much better deal by comparison. Not only is the salary of $2 million a year, but you're also getting 5% of the original stock. Plus, you're getting plenty of financial support. And, you know, Our energy is no worse than Bruce Guo, and we even surpass him in terms of connections."

"I'm sorry. I was very happy at Ruby Company, and I have no idea of ​​changing jobs. You should go to someone else!" After thinking for a while, Tim George refused.

"The position of CEO of Ruby Company is really worth nostalgic. But I hope Mr. George can give more consideration to our conditions. We look forward to your joining at any time!"

Tim George put down the phone, a gloomy look on his normally calm face.

…

"Boss, this is the progress of the Huaxia Island City Qianwan project."

After taking a brief look, Guo Shouyun asked, "How much share do we estimate we can get?"

"It's hard to get over 10 percent," John Roberts replied.

"so little?"

"The investment scale of the Qianwan Wharf project is huge. Daocheng Port Group hopes to bring more international routes through cooperation. So they will expand the scope of cooperation as much as possible. Together with Hutchison Group, the five parties share 49% of the equity, and 10% is the most likely outcome.”

Guo Shouyun nodded, put down the document in his hand, and looked at the man sitting across from him.

"From the time when the company was a Pacific Commodity Trading website to the current Ruby Mall, you have been the CEO of the company. By now, it should have been three years!"

"Three years and two months," John Roberts replied.

Although he didn't know the purpose of the big boss's question, looking at his deep eyes, John Roberts was inexplicably a little flustered.

"Three years and two months. The company has grown from a pure Internet company with less than $1 billion in assets and more than 50% debt to the present with a total transaction volume of more than $50 billion, total assets of $15.7 billion, and net assets of $5.29 billion. As a comprehensive enterprise group in e-commerce, logistics, intermediary services, financial investment and other businesses, you have indeed contributed greatly.”

"This is also thanks to your strong support, boss."

Having said that, John Roberts had a smug look on his face.

"I see your efforts, and I don't intend to give you less rewards. But... this does not mean that you can use your power to violate the company's rules and regulations and act recklessly!"

"Boss, I have never abused my private power...!"

Just as John Roberts was about to defend himself, he was interrupted by a document bag thrown by Guo Shouyun.

"Look for yourself! ... You maintain an ambiguous relationship with the company's female staff. For the sake of your significant contribution to the company, I will not hold you accountable. But you openly used your private power without going through the personnel department. I have to say that you are really a reliable lover. But as the CEO of the company, where do you put the company’s interests?”

"Also, I made three orders and five declarations that the company's management should be concise and efficient. What's the result? I used the company's finances to buy senior members of the country club; in the name of maintaining customer relationships, I bought various high-end products, but I ended up getting rich! In order to avoid attracting my attention, you must have bought luxury cars and private jets with public funds, right?"

"Old... Boss, this is Tim George's slander, he is a blatant slander!" John Roberts said with a pale face and stern anger.

"Tim George? How do you know this is his slander against you?" Guo Shouyun said indifferently.

"The whole company knows that I don't deal with him. As early as when I was the executive president and chief operating officer of LinkedIn, I had conflicts with him. Now, he is using his power blatantly, ignoring your explanations, the chairman, repeatedly. Rejected Ruby's investment in the logistics sector. Our conflict has been made public, so he is openly slandering me, and he is the only one who wants me to leave the company."

Guo Shouyun nodded, "I know it's a good choice to divide the relationship between me and Tim, and to distract me from your crap. However, who told you that these things were given to me by Tim? Besides, Do you really think what you've done can stand the test?"

With that said, Guo Shouyun opened his drawer, took out a few CDs, put them on the computer and turned the screen toward John Roberts.

"Look at it for yourself, your old lovers have already sold you for their own benefit."

Looking at the images flashing on the computer screen, John Roberts' face became even paler in an instant, but he soon became furious.

"This **** bitch, I'm so good to her!"

Looking at the hysterical John Roberts, Guo Shouyun frowned slightly.

"Don't splash on me."

If John Roberts was struck by lightning, the fury on his face disappeared, and he quickly turned around and said: "Boss, I know I'm wrong, please give me another chance, I will run the company wholeheartedly, and never make the same mistake again. , please!"

"If you take the initiative to admit your mistake when you see that document, maybe I'll consider giving you another chance. But now it's too late." After a pause, "It seems that you have done a lot for the company. For your contribution, you can receive an extra three months' salary. As for your bad things, I will not publish them to the outside world. You can resign yourself!"

After being stunned for a while, John Roberts looked extremely ugly, and said solemnly: "Did you choose Tim George and give up on me?"

"You gave up yourself~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It has nothing to do with anyone!" Guo Shouyun said calmly.

"Myself? Hehe, I don't believe Tim George has done anything against corporate law."

"This is where he is better than you." After a pause, "In terms of management ability, the two of you are on a par. But compared to you, he understands the distinction between public and private, and never uses public power to satisfy his own desires. !...Okay, you can go!"

After John Roberts opened his mouth, he turned around in dismay and walked towards the door.

"You're going to regret quitting me. And Tim George would never be a submissive guy, he's an Orwellian guy at heart."

After leaving this sentence, John Roberts opened the door and walked out.

Looking at his lost back, Guo Shouyun's face became more complicated.
