After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

And it was one of those people with significant power within the group.

He glanced at the intern Guo Wei, who had just been fired, and suddenly understood.

There were two personnel changes, one targeting Guo Wei and the other him.

The common link between the two of them was this matter of the intern becoming a regular employee.

In other words, he had offended someone untouchable through his handling of this intern\'s promotion!

Chang Ruihua immediately looked toward Li Manni.

If there was someone he had offended, it could only be this young girl!

Could it be that she has a background I\'m unaware of??

While he pondered, Wang Zhen\'s voice rang out again, "Third, intern Li Manni has performed excellently during her internship period and will be transferred to the New Media Operations Center to serve as the director."

Wow~!

Once again, the conference room stirred up.

All eyes fell on Li Manni.

An intern was directly transferred to lead the New Media Operations Center.

This promotion was too swift!

Although the New Media Operations Center wasn\'t officially established and reportedly only had a handful of people, it was a leadership position in an independent department, nonetheless!

At this moment, Li Manni was completely dumbfounded.

This personnel change at the headquarters seemed like a revenge script tailor-made for her!

She had taken out two villains and then got a promotion!

Li Manni had been prepared to continue as an intern.

But now, to her utter surprise, everything had taken a massive turn!!

"Manni, turns out you have a backer at the head office!"

"Why didn\'t you tell us earlier, I was worried about you for so long!"

Tang Lijie\'s face was filled with astonishment; the personnel decisions that dismissed Guo Wei and transferred Chang Ruihua had already delighted her, but she hadn\'t expected an even more exciting development to follow!

So it was the young girl she admired who had directed this grand revenge drama!

"Tang, I really don\'t know what\'s going on," replied Li Manni in a low voice, genuinely clueless.

"The meeting is adjourned!"

"Manni, please stay behind."

This meeting was called to announce three personnel reassignments. Actually, such matters could be handled privately, but Wang Zhen did it this way to give prestige to the intern with powerful connections by having Han Tao call a temporary meeting.

Now that the main business was concluded, there was no point in further audience.

However, the onlookers, fresh from their melon-eating, were quite excited, and as soon as they left the meeting room, they began whispering among themselves.

"What\'s the background of this young girl, it\'s so impressive!"

"She appears to be so low-key normally, who would\'ve thought she had such connections!"

"With the group\'s HR Manager personally stepping in, her backer must be at the level of vice-president!"

"I\'ve always had a good relationship with her; I wonder if she could take me to the New Media department!"

"Haha, Chang Ruihua had it coming. I heard he was eyeing up the young girl!"

"It serves him right, Chang Ruihua that jerk has harassed so many young girls!"

"But Guo Wei got the short end of the stick, that\'s basically sleeping with him for nothing..."

Both Guo Wei and Chang Ruihua were among the crowd, and hearing these murmurs, they naturally looked even more embarrassed.

Guo Wei felt murderous towards Chang Ruihua.

As others mentioned, she got used by this old man for nothing!

She thought she would smoothly become a regular employee, and then have someone at the workplace to rely on!

Instead, she was directly fired!

Chang Ruihua was transferred to work as a security guard at the Group\'s headquarters!

Although he was given the title of Deputy Head of Security, theoretically a lateral move, Chang Ruihua held real power as the chief of the Jiangcheng Evening News\' reporter department!

Once at the Group\'s headquarters, he was sure to be nothing!

Beyond that, as someone marked for optimization, he would be targeted for internal harassment; his days there wouldn\'t be easy.

"Chang Ruihua, you old scammer!"

"You impotent man who can\'t last two minutes, just go die!!"

Guo Wei, increasingly furious, couldn\'t help but curse vehemently.

Chang Ruihua, already looking ashen-faced, turned from iron blue to dark purple upon hearing the insults!

He was embarrassed enough already and naturally didn\'t want to engage in a public spat with a young girl; he hurriedly quickened his pace!

The onlookers became even more excited.

"Man, not even lasting two minutes!"

"Haha, we got our fill of drama today!"

"Young girl, there\'s a saying about not hitting someone in the face!"

"Chang Ruihua drank that goji berry water every day for nothing!"

As a group, the onlookers chatted and laughed; for them, the bigger the drama, the better the entertainment.

At this moment, Tang Lijie was also feeling exceptionally content. She had confronted Chang Ruihua in his office, expecting to face his retribution later. Instead, the man himself was gone!

Truly a delightful outcome!!

"Lijie, Manni has always been under your wing. What\'s her background? Give us a scoop."

Someone sidled up to Tang Lijie, looking to get the inside story on a juicy new topic.

"Honestly, I have no idea. Manni keeps a low profile and has never mentioned anything about having connections at the group\'s headquarters."

Tang Lijie shrugged slightly. Before this, her impression of Li Manni was that of a pretty young lady who worked hard, was reliable, and had strong professional skills.

She had secured several difficult interviews!

"Then she really is a dark horse!"

"Actually, it\'s quite normal. Our kind of organization has always been full of hidden talents..."

Inside the conference room.

Li Manni faced the two senior leaders alone and felt a bit nervous.

"Manni, sit down and talk, don\'t stand."

Han Tao indicated the chair opposite him with a smile.

"Thank you, Editor-in-Chief."

"Hey, no need to be so formal, we\'re all family here…"

Han Tao waved his hand dismissively, though internally he couldn\'t help but grumble: Young lady, if you had such impressive connections, could you have given me a heads-up? I would have treated you like royalty!

Caught completely off guard here!

Fortunately, nothing had gone wrong under his supervision. Otherwise, he had no clue if he could have continued as the editor-in-chief.

At this moment, Wang Zhen\'s face was also full of smiles, "Manni, it\'s like this, the New Media Operations Center is still in the planning stages. If you have any suitable candidates, just let us know. We\'re also open to hiring from the public, let\'s get the new media operations up and running as soon as possible."

"Additionally, according to the group\'s plans, the New Media Operations Center will initially be staffed with four employees, including yourself that makes five. If things develop well, we\'ll consider expanding!"

"If you have any other requests, feel free to mention them directly."

"Thank you, Manager Wang, I have no special requests,"

Li Manni politely expressed her thanks. Right now, she felt like she was still in a dream, nowhere near the point of making demands.

"Alright then, that settles it."

Wang Zhen nodded and then took out a contract and handed it to Li Manni, "This is the official employment contract from our group. Take a look, and if there are no issues, just sign it."

Wei Zhengyi had only given Wang Zhen one hour, so he brought the contract straight over.

Han Tao, on the other hand, looked on stunned. The Human Resources Department Manager of the group had come personally for a one-on-one meeting.

With such treatment, there might not be a second person in the entire group receiving it!

Normally, the group\'s Human Resources Department acts high and mighty, with employees from subsidiary companies having to make the trip to the headquarters just to sign an employment contract, and that within a specified time set by the department.

Which deity exactly is this young lady?

Han Tao grew increasingly curious about Li Manni\'s identity, and even thought that he should secure his relationship with this influential individual, hoping for some future benefit.

Li Manni carefully examined the contract Wang Zhen handed her. She was a cautious person; although she knew someone at the head office was helping her, an employment contract was akin to a "bond of servitude," so it required thorough understanding.

When she saw the salary column, her pupils instinctively dilated.

A monthly salary of 12K, fifteen salaries a year, plus performance bonuses!

Altogether, her annual salary would be close to 200,000.

Meanwhile, her current base salary was three thousand...

"Manni, if you\'re not satisfied with the salary, we can discuss it further,"

"This is based on a T4 level, considering the New Media Operations Center doesn\'t have a fixed grade yet."

After the joint venture, Jiangcheng Newspaper Group adopted a salary model similar to some large internet companies. All staff are categorized from T1 to T11, with corresponding salaries for each level.

Previously, Li Manni\'s level was T1, which after probation would typically upgrade to T2.

And now she was directly given a T4 level salary, placing her on the same level as Tang Lijie, a veteran employee of over a decade.

"How about we raise it to T5?"

Seeing Li Manni remain silent, Wang Zhen made the offer.

At his words, Han Tao\'s jaw dropped once again!

Dammit, when did the Human Resources Department become so negotiable!

His own level was T6, and looking at the current situation, if this young lady hesitated another minute, she would be on par with him!

"No need, it\'s fine!"

Li Manni quickly shook her head; she wasn\'t dissatisfied with the salary, rather she was astonished.

Jumping directly from T1 to T4 was like a rocket soaring upwards, enough to confuse anyone!!

Li Manni picked up the pen and signed her name on the contract.

And with that, Wang Zhen\'s heart finally settled. He checked the time; it had been 55 minutes since he had left Wei Zhengyi\'s office!

He completed the task with five minutes to spare!

Perfect!

He immediately sent a message to Wei Zhengyi on Weixun: Mission accomplished.

"Mr. Wang, why don\'t you stay for lunch? It\'s almost time to eat,"

Seeing that Wang Zhen had finished the formalities, Han Tao extended the invitation with a grin.

"Can\'t today. Need to report back to headquarters,"

"By the way, do you have a replacement in mind for Chang Ruihua\'s position?" Wang Zhen asked casually.

"Uh…"

The situation had arisen so suddenly that Han Tao had indeed not given it any thought. There were three interview groups in the Journalism Department: "Hotline News," "Political News," and "Cultural and Sports News," each with a team leader.

Ordinarily, a successor would be chosen from one of these three leaders.

"Manni, how about you recommend someone?"

Wang Zhen\'s question was merely a formality; as Han Tao, the chief editor, was present, it wouldn\'t be polite not to consult him. But since Han Tao had not settled on anyone, Wang Zhen was ready to move on.

"Yes, yes, Manni, you make a recommendation!"

Han Tao nodded and echoed, internally lamenting: Old Wang, you\'re just making me answer for the sake of it!
