Chapter 1488: Shock Treatment

The resignation procedure was faster than the hiring procedure.

There was no need to wait until noon. In less than a minute, the electronic contract and salary slips were sent to every researcher who had resigned.

From reading the contract to signing, it only took one hour in total.

The lawyer from the legal department who came with Secretary Zhou gave some simple answers to some questions about the resignation agreement and urged them to fill out the form and contract. He then left with the documents.

After the two left, the hall became quiet again.

The researchers looked at the resignation agreement in the holographic interface with muddled expressions. They then looked at each other with weird expressions in their eyes.

Although it was true that they were threatening to resign, almost no one thought that they would actually reach this point.

Why does it feel like…

Something is not right?

No, something is wrong…

“Could not be reached…”

As Yang Xiaofeng looked at the unanswered symbol on the videophone interface, his expression was pale.

The development of the situation had exceeded his expectations.

Before the strike began, he had considered many possibilities, but he had not considered the possibility that Lu Zhou was actually indifferent to their resignations.

As Yang Xiaofeng stared closely at the resignation contract in front of him, a researcher next to him who looked dumbfounded spoke.

“What shall we do now…?”

What am I supposed to say?

Yang Xiaofeng didn’t know how to answer.

However, seeing the pair of eyes staring at him as if he killed everyone’s parents, he quickly relaxed his tone and said.

“Don’t worry, everyone, we are all the technical backbones of the electromagnet design laboratory. How can an old popsicle get rid of us? He will have to invite us back tomorrow politely!

“Director Liu has already negotiated with the board of directors on our behalf. Please don’t panic. At this time, we must unite even more. I believe there will be results soon!”

When he said this, Yang Xiaofeng didn’t know that his boss couldn’t even protect himself, much less anyone else.

Thousands of people had lost their jobs…

Yang Xiaofeng was one of them.

If Lu Zhou did not compromise in the end, he was afraid that he would be torn to pieces by these angry people.

After all, when he stood up and called everyone to protest together, he repeatedly assured that there would be no problems with the jobs and that their salaries would be even higher than before…

The Yangtze River Delta city group.

In a mansion inside a wealthy area.

A middle-aged woman, who looked quite young, grabbed an old man’s arm and cried, “Dad! You’re the one that makes the call!”

Her name was Song Haiyang, the only daughter of Song Yangwei, chairman of Yangwei Capital.

Last night, her husband did not return home all night. Thinking that her man had been taken by some tramp, she quickly found someone and finally heard that he was taken away by the police.

After hearing the news, she tossed and cried all night. She ran to her father in the morning, hoping that her father could help her find a way.

All she could rely on was her father.

Song Yangwei looked at his crying daughter. He couldn’t help but curse.

“That bastard, didn’t I tell him to be honest?!”

The fire is right under his a*s, and the idea he came up with was to go on a strike!

Only he would be this stupid!

There were still many people who sympathized with him on the board of directors, but after what happened, no one dared to stand by him.

Song Haiyang’s cry was even louder; her tears could not stop flowing.

Seeing his crying daughter, Song Yangwei originally planned to say something cruel, but in the end, his heart turned soft and he spoke with a sigh.


“Don’t cry, your dad has this handled. Don’t worry, it’s just an old popsicle from a hundred years ago. He can’t go against me!”

The crying stopped for a while. Song Haiyang raised her head, and her eyes seemed to see hope.

“Really… Really?”

After giving his daughter a comforting smile, Song Yangwei smirked.

“Have I ever lied to you?

“I’ll take care of this.”

Having been on the board of directors for so many years, he knew the hidden secrets about East Asia Energy, even if he was afraid to talk about them.

If Lu Zhou intended to do things this way…

He would not allow this to happen, even at his own expense!

Of course, that was the last resort; they were far from reaching that point now.

If such a method was really used, it would be tantamount to dragging down other shareholders on the board of directors.

After taking a deep breath, Song Yangwei calmed himself down, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and called his classmate, who worked at the TV station.

Before putting pressure on the board of directors, he needed to make some preparations.

At least, they had to be scared…

Jin Ling University.

Principal’s office.

After finishing the preparatory course, Lu Zhou came here to visit Principal Cai Mingrui.

Seeing Lu Zhou who came to visit, President Cai invited him into the office very politely and ordered his secretary to help make two cups of coffee.

Lu Zhou sat across from the sofa as he warmly greeted the principal.

“Academician Lu, are you still used to the new life?”

Lu Zhou said with a smile, “Yeah, I am.”

“Good, good. We were worried that you would not adapt to the life here. It seems that we were worrying too much.” With a smile, Principal Cai Mingrui continued, “If there is anything that we can help you, please be sure to tell me.”

Lu Zhou took a sip of coffee and put down his cup. He thought for a moment and said, “Speaking of help… I really have something recently that I might have to trouble you.”

Principal Cai smiled and said, “You are too polite! Just tell me if you have any difficulties, we will definitely help you solve it!”

Lu Zhou: “Before I ask you, I actually want to inquire about something. I heard that Jin Ling University’s nuclear engineering is the world’s best, but why did very few of the graduated talents join East Asia Energy?”

Although he didn’t know why Lu Zhou suddenly asked this question, it was indeed one of the sorrows of Jin Ling University.

Principal Cai Mingrui sighed and continued, “This… It’s a long story. On the one hand, East Asia Energy’s entry barrier is too high. On the other hand, it may be that the academic and industrial circles have different calibers.”

“The entry barrier is too high?” Lu Zhou frowned slightly. “Are there schools with higher standards than Jin Ling University?”

“This threshold may not be academic. I don’t know if you can understand what I’m talking about,” President Cai said vaguely. “Each year, East Asia Energy will hold campus recruitment here, but the number of admissions is less than 10, and less than a third of the 10 are able to stay through induction training. According to what I learned from the teachers in the engineering school, most of the students who went to East Asia Energy after graduation were unhappy. Those who stayed for two years or more were considered to be relatively rare. Many talented people go back to school to do scientific research after one year of work.”

Lu Zhou nodded thoughtfully. “It seems that East Asia Energy has a big problem.”

“The problem is definitely there, but after all, it’s a private company, and we can’t control them. I hope they can improve in the future. Let’s not talk about our troubles, let’s talk about your troubles.” Cai Ming Rui smiled and said, “Didn’t you have something to trouble me? I have been waiting for a long time.”

“I need a favor. It has something to do with the question I asked earlier.” Lu Zhou continued, putting on a serious tone, “I want to do a campus recruitment event at Jin Ling University in the near future. In a few days… or the sooner the better.”

“Recruitment?”

Principal Cai Mingrui was taken aback and said, “The campus recruitment was just in November… Another one so soon…”

Lu Zhou: “I don’t know if you have heard. I recently launched a second-generation controllable fusion project, which requires a lot of manpower.”

Principal Cai asked seriously, “How many people do you need?”

Lu Zhou thought for a while and gave a number.

“One or two thousand.”

Principal Cai took a deep breath and said in an incredulous tone, “One or two thousand jobs? Are you… opening a new research institute? Why do you need so many people?”

“It’s not a new research institute.” Lu Zhou coughed dryly. He then said with some uncertainty, “It’s just that I was not satisfied with the institute, so I just fired everyone.”

Cai Mingrui: “…?”

Lu Zhou: “In short, I plan to recruit more people to fill in the jobs.”

Principal Cai looked at Lu Zhou and said dumbfoundedly, “There’s no problem with campus recruitment… I wish you would recruit more students from us, but why… fire everyone?! At least a few people should be reserved to do the induction training for new employees, right?”

“It’s not necessary.” Lu Zhou said, “I’ll keep it straight. The electromagnet laboratory is completely corrupt. Without this shock treatment method, there is no way to save it. No matter how good the new employees are… If they are sent in, they will also be contaminated and turned into waste. It’s better to fire all of them and start again.

“Is it ok to do the campus recruitment event? If not, I’ll go to other places to ask.”

“Okay! Definitely!” Seeing that Lu Zhou was about to leave, Principal Cai wasn’t willing to let go of this opportunity. He said quickly, “The day after tomorrow, I will immediately hold a meeting here to arrange the recruitment work. You can just send your HR people here!”

Lu Zhou nodded and said with a smile, “Thanks so much.”
