Wherever he goes, Zhou Chao was a ticking time bomb.
Not only was he an unorthodox man, he was overly-optimistic and always wanted to do the type of jobs that were above his abilities with the illusion that he’ll one day become a man among men. Indeed, he had a higher starting point compared to most people because of Zhou Xue, such as his ability to go through the back door. But when you have too many back doors, it’s easy to get carried away.
He was never very capable to begin with but he didn’t want to back out and start working like everyone else while he still can. One of these days, the ship is definitely going to flip on him.
…And nobody would have expected that day to come so soon.
They couldn’t rule out external factors such as someone from the same company who didn’t really like him and caused him to stumble.
In short, Zhou Chao was responsible for a problem that cropped up in the project which caused huge losses to the project. Naturally, the company’s CEO Huo Qidong came forward to negotiate and resolve the compensation issues he faced.
Zhou Chao made a lot of low-level mistakes at work, but there were members from the same group who helped him correct those mistakes. Still, he wasn’t doing so hot. People can’t always be there to help him, and with how large the profit margins were in this project, he was greedy and insisted on being a standout, resulting in this embarrassing situation.
He was as greedy as a snake that wanted to swallow an elephant!!!
And Huo Qidong’s patience with Zhou Chao also reached its limit.
The elders in the family weren’t wrong, the matter of interests are always going to be brought up in families such as theirs, even marriage should be a calculation made in the field of business. Even if he did the calculations, he still overestimated his ability to be alone. It’s not enough that he married a woman that didn’t bring him any benefits or even a hot meal when he got home, but he even had to clean up the mess for his wife’s useless relatives and wipe his ass for her.
Huo Qidong did have the title of being a “philanthropist”, but that didn’t mean he was in the money-losing business. Doing charity is just to throw a bunch of money to buy a good reputation so that wasn’t a loss. As for Zhou Chao, Huo Qidong feels that he had already invested in him and should stop now after losing all his money so he can avoid any future losses.
