After being reborn, I sent the entire scumbag woman's family to jail.

After explaining everything, Xu Ye led Zhou Tong and President Yan to the general manager's office.

After settling in, Xu Ye said, "Is everything confirmed? Are you sure there aren't any problems?"

Zhou Tong nodded: "We've already had it appraised by professionals, and we're certain there won't be any problems."

Xu Ye asked, "What about his team? Have they all been investigated?"

Zhou Tong said, "You've already kicked out the main team members, namely Yuan Feng, Zhao Chong, and Zhao Xue."

"Even if the rest aren't driven away, they're just opportunists and not worth worrying about at all."

"Right now, his only and biggest trump card is still the R&D department, but as you know, and they have already made thorough preparations to deal with it, so there is even less to worry about."

Xu Ye nodded and gave a cold laugh.

Xu Zhihao's plan to use Xu's Pharmaceuticals as a starting point is undeniably a strong strategy, but...

Does he still think he's the simp from his past life?

I've prepared all the traps for you, just waiting for you to crawl in little by little!

An hour passed quickly, and Xu Ye led two people toward the company's large conference room.

Upon entering, he went straight to the front desk, sat down in the general manager's seat, with Zhou Tong and General Manager Yan sitting on either side of him.

At this moment, all the employees of Xu's Pharmaceutical were present, sitting quietly below the stage, waiting for Xu Ye, the new general manager, to speak.

He didn't let anyone else introduce him, and said directly into the microphone: "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Xu Ye. I am the general manager of Xu's Pharmaceutical and the third largest shareholder of Xu's Group."

"The person sitting next to me is General Manager Yan, whom you should all know. This is Zhou Tong, the company's new Vice General Manager."

Although it was only a short hour, all the employees already knew Xu Ye's identity: the young chairman of the Xu Group.

Moreover, he raised everyone's salary as soon as he arrived. Who wouldn't welcome such a generous and well-connected new general manager?

Even those opportunists left behind by Lei Bao were, in truth, all driven by self-interest. So, as soon as Xu Ye finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted throughout the room.

But just then, a slightly shrill voice suddenly rang out in the hall.

"Mr. Xu, this is Zhang Chaoyang from the R&D department. There's something very important I'd like to say first."

Xu Ye looked in the direction the sound came from and saw a middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties, slightly thin, with an arrogant and sarcastic expression on his face, stand up.

Zhou Tong's face darkened, and she leaned close to Xu Ye's ear and whispered, "This is Lei Bao's biggest trump card."

Everyone else started whispering and talking amongst themselves.

Everyone knows that Zhang Chaoyang and Lei Bao have a good relationship; it was the latter who recruited the research and development department of Xu's Pharmaceutical.

At the same time, Zhang Chaoyang not only has a research and development team of more than 30 people in his hands, but also controls more than 70% of the company's research and development data.

For this reason, he held an extremely superior position within the company, and was arrogant and sometimes even dared not give face to the chairman.

Now, he stepped forward after the new general manager had only said one sentence, which clearly indicates that he had a purpose.

It seems they want to stand up for Lei Bao.

Xu Ye narrowed his eyes and said expressionlessly, "We'll talk about it later."

Zhang Chaoyang said without backing down, "President Xu, I think this matter is very important and we must make it clear now."

Xu Ye smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes as he looked at him and said, "Alright, since you insist, I'll give you this chance. Tell me, what is it that's so important?"

A smug sneer appeared on Zhang Chaoyang's lips. Important R&D personnel are the most crucial element in any large company; it's no exaggeration to say they are related to the future of the entire company.

Therefore, in his view, achieving his goal today was inevitable.

He said, "Just now, our R&D department's computers suddenly got infected with a virus, which caused the loss of all the data for several drugs that are currently under development."

He paused, then added, "Not only that, but even all of our research and development data is at risk of being leaked."

"what?!"

"How could this be?"

The room erupted in another uproar, with Zhou Tong and President Yan even standing up.

Everyone knows that this is just Zhang Chaoyang's excuse; in reality, it's a threat, a blatant threat.

Although the conditions haven't been stated yet, the meaning is already very clear: if you don't agree, all the data on the drugs we are currently developing will be lost, and all other research and development data will also be leaked.

But should we negotiate terms with Xu Shao?

No... it should be said that they were threatening Young Master Xu and the Xu family?

How dare Zhang Chaoyang do that? Has he gone mad?

President Yan's face turned ashen, and he was about to say something when Xu Ye stopped him.

He looked at Zhang Chaoyang with a blank expression, even a hint of interest, and said, "Minister Zhang, what do you have to say about this matter?"

Zhou Tong was the only one who knew Xu Ye's purpose, and upon hearing this, she immediately cooperated and said, "Minister Zhang, you should know better than me how important this matter is. If what you say is true, then your entire R&D department must be held responsible for this matter!"

A hint of displeasure flashed across Zhang Chaoyang's face, but he managed to restrain himself. He said, "President Zhou, there's no need to worry. Our colleagues in the technical department are doing everything they can to fix it, but it may take some time, and..."

Xu Ye said, "And what?"

Zhang Chaoyang said, "Moreover, I have two conditions."

General Manager Yan slammed his hand on the table, his anger barely contained, and said, "Zhang Chaoyang, you're in charge of the R&D department. Now that such a big thing has happened, it's already a miracle that you haven't been held responsible. How dare you make demands?"

Xu Ye raised his hand and looked at Zhang Chaoyang, saying, "President Yan, please don't be angry. Let Minister Zhang tell us his conditions first."

Zhang Chaoyang glanced at President Yan with a smug look and said, "First of all, as a pharmaceutical company, it requires extremely strong technical skills and professionalism. It can't be taken over by just any two people."

"So my first condition is that we must bring Manager Lei back. We can only accept his leadership, and we will not recognize anyone else."

really! !

Everyone was shocked, and their inner suspicions were finally confirmed.

Zhang Chaoyang really wanted to stand up for Lei Bao.

But how dare he provoke the Xu family?

Who gave him that confidence?

Everyone present looked at Xu Ye, awaiting his decision.

Zhang Chaoyang clearly knew Xu Ye's identity, yet he still dared to challenge Xu Ye, so he must have had some confidence.

If Xu Ye handles things well on his first day in office, that's fine; but what if he doesn't...?

He not only lost face for himself, but also for the entire Xu family!
