Chapter 7

Auteur: The Great Chaos
My statement of facts and position with a link to sign the petition was like a depth charge, igniting a violent undercurrent within the company.

Messages flooded the anonymous group chat named "We Workers Are Powerful," set up by Larry. The chat had been a hub for them to give likes, share ideas, and rejoice in their gradual triumph over the past 24 hours. However, now, it had transformed into a battleground of fear and distrust.

[What should we do? What should we do? Samuel's move is too ruthless! He is asking each of us to pledge our loyalty!]

[Sign it? Wouldn't signing it be equivalent to openly proving our joint statement yesterday wrong? What will we become? Two-faced villains who petitioned earlier and defected afterward?]

[Nonsense! Are you not signing? How dare you refuse? Didn't you read the email saying you'd be a witness for the company? If you do not sign, you will be siding with Cynthia! Look at the $3 million claim letter? You will be the next one in court!]

  • Cancel and Regret   Chapter 9

    In the evening after the meeting, the setting sun enveloped my office in a golden hue.The call from investor Alex Leigh came on time.This time, it was no longer the cold notice from his secretary on the other end of the phone, but his hearty laughter. "Mr. Sander, well done! To be honest, the result you submitted far exceeded my expectations."The worry that had been haunting my mind for a whole week was finally vanquished. "Mr. Leigh, thank you for your trust and support at this critical moment.""Haha, you don't need to thank me." His tone suddenly became serious and profound."Actually, I should tell you something. This stock price crisis precisely confirms a key risk report presented at our investment decision-making meeting."I was stunned. I had no idea at all that such a layer existed in the story.Alex admitted," Our investment research team pointed out the risk points in the company's culture a month ago."I held my breath and listened quietly.He continued explaini

    At exactly 5 PM, the HR director placed a statistical report and a resignation application form on my desk at the same time. The statistical report showed that the company had 412 employees, among whom 409 had signed. The rate of those who signed was as high as 99.3%. Meanwhile, the resignation application was from three employees who did not sign.Two of them submitted their resignation letters after the email was sent out yesterday, citing personal development reasons as the reason. They did not even ask for compensation and just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.The remaining one was Cynthia's best friend, who was usually the closest to her. She hesitated until the very last moment. Eventually, she was summoned for a talk by the legal department on the grounds of suspected involvement in business defamation and leakage of internal company information. An hour later, she came out crying and submitted her resignation.My phone rang. It was Cynthia.As soon as the cal

    I quietly looked at the joint statement on my desk, which carried the employees' "wisdom", before looking up again at Larry, who was standing opposite me with an expectant expression tinted with confidence. I almost burst out laughing.They were smart, so smart that they thought they could manipulate everyone at will.In front of Larry, I slowly picked up the statement and read it word by word, as if appreciating a work of art. Later, I got up and walked to the shredder in the corner of the office. I fed the document, which carried all their hopes, into the machine's opening.Screech!Amid the shrill and ruthless shredding sound, Larry's humble smile instantly froze before turning into shock and disbelief. Mr. Sander, what... what do you mean by this?" His voice trembled a little.I turned around, leaned against my desk, and gave him a cold stare. "A solution? No, Larry, this is not a solution; it is extortion. You are attempting to extort the company collectively and using fake d

    I turned around and walked out of the conference room, leaving them an arena to fight among each other.As I expected, the place was in temporary chaos in the first few minutes after I left. Countless people stood up and pointed at Cynthia's nose, cursing.Simon from the tech department, the father who was originally looking forward to taking his daughter to see sea turtles, was so angry that his face turned red and he almost rushed up to hit her.Amid this chaos, Larry stepped forward once again. Instead of rushing to shift the blame onto Cynthia, he shielded her, who was trembling with fear. "Everyone, calm down first! Listen to me!"Larry shouted hoarsely to the agitated crowd. "What's the use of scolding and hitting her now? Can it bring the stock price back up? Can we bring back the Madiles? It can't solve any problem! What does Mr. Sander want? A solution!"His remark instantly calmed the enraged crowd.Yes, punishing Cynthia would only be venting their anger; keeping their

    The next morning, the company's spacious conference room was packed.The atmosphere buzzed with excitement and eagerness, not like a crisis meeting but more like a reward sharing session.Cynthia and Larry were sitting in the front row, surrounded by a group of young colleagues.Larry boasted, "I told you Mr. Sander is soft-hearted. As long as we unite and make a big fuss, he will surely compromise! "Cynthia was even more smug, even secretly livestreaming with her phone.The title of the livestream was particularly eye-catching.[Everyone, witness how Gen Zs reorganize the workplace and how we take welfare back from capitalists!]At 9 AM sharp, I walked into the conference room.Everyone instantly fixed their gaze on me. There were gloat, gossip, and anticipation.I walked up to the front of the stage and bowed deeply. "Sorry."A murmur rippled through the audience before thunderous applause exploded.In Cynthia's livestream chat, the screen was instantly flooded with comme
