The Vast Heaven Holy Land's Two Decisions!
Although Qin Xiangqian felt reassured after receiving comfort from his Senior Brother Xinghe, he spent several days thinking about how to resolve the current crisis facing the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce.
Qin Xiangqian was so worried that he couldn't sleep night after night.
But Qin Xiangqian wasn't the only one having trouble sleeping; countless others in the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce were too.
With the arrival of the spirit mine crisis, the value of spirit stones across the world skyrocketed, and the turnover of all chambers of commerce plummeted.
The various chambers of commerce, which used to make huge profits, are now struggling to even break even.
In just half a month, more than a dozen small chambers of commerce have declared bankruptcy, and several large chambers of commerce have even announced an indefinite suspension of operations.
The most affected by the collapse and closure of these chambers of commerce are not the major powers, but the people within these chambers themselves...
As the chambers of commerce collapsed and ceased operations, these people had no choice but to leave their jobs. Some conscientious chambers of commerce provided some compensation to those who left, while some unscrupulous chambers of commerce simply dismissed them on the spot without paying a single penny in severance pay!
Even large chambers of commerce that can still hold on for the time being are now forced to lay off employees and cut salaries!
A large number of chamber of commerce staff were laid off, and even those who were temporarily retained had to have their salaries reduced!
If you don't agree to a reduction in benefits, then you'll only face layoffs...
In just half a month, countless people who were once prominent in various chambers of commerce have become unemployed!
However, they all understood that the Chamber of Commerce couldn't be entirely blamed for this. The Chamber of Commerce couldn't continue to lose money indefinitely, nor could it continue to pay their previous wages while operating at a loss!
The people most worried were those from the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce.
As is widely known, Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce of Commerce consistently offers the best benefits in the industry, Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce it a dream destination for every professional.
Under no circumstances will people choose other chambers of commerce unless it is certain that there is no possibility of working for Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce!
Previously, Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce the most money, but now everyone knows that it is also the one that has lost the most money.
After all, the operating costs of Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce far exceed those of any other chamber of commerce. The salaries of all Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce members alone amount to an astronomical figure every month!
We don't know how much other chambers of commerce are losing, but everyone knows that Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce has suffered unimaginable losses just in terms of employee benefits!
Therefore, the staff of Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce from all sides of the Three Continents are currently burdened with worries!
Back in the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce, everyone was always in high spirits whenever the managers held a meeting, because everyone knew that the managers usually had tasks to complete when they held a meeting.
And having a task means having a bonus...
So every time the managers hold a meeting, everyone is just waiting to receive their reward.
But now, all the employees of Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce are afraid... afraid that the managers will hold a meeting, because they know that they receive the highest salaries in the industry. Although they have also put in the most effort, with Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce suffering such losses, everyone is saying that Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce will definitely carry out an unprecedented mega-layoff!
There are even rumors circulating that Qin Xiangqian has been summoned to the Vast Heaven Holy Land, and the layoff order is probably coming soon.
This round of layoffs may cut more than 70% of the staff, and even the remaining less than 30% will only receive half the benefits they used to!
Although this half of the compensation is already quite high... it's still hard to accept.
Therefore, recently, the entire Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce has been in a state of panic!
"Gentlemen, I've heard that an order has been issued from the Vast Heaven Holy Land and will reach all the branches of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce today... This time, things may be tough for everyone..." A manager of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce looked at a group of subordinates with their heads down, his face full of helplessness.
"Manager, I can't be laid off... You know, my father and mother have been seriously ill for a long time, and they rely entirely on my earnings to stay alive. If I'm laid off, they'll have no way to survive..." A long-time employee of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce had tears welling up in his eyes...
"Manager, I can't be laid off... My whole family depends on my job to put food on the table. I have three sons; what will they do if I lose my job...?"
"Manager... Manager..."
The Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce employees were all complaining to the manager, but the manager knew all too well that every family has its own troubles.
Who would want to be unemployed if they had no other choice?
"Gentlemen... the shedding of spirit essence from spirit ore is an unprecedented situation. The value of spirit stones is skyrocketing, causing severe losses for chambers of commerce across the land. Our Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce, in particular, has reached its peak of losses. Under these circumstances..."
The manager didn't continue, but everyone knew he was telling the truth.
The Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce highest salaries and benefits, and naturally, it also incurs the greatest losses.
These days, all kinds of chambers of commerce are laying off employees and cutting salaries, and Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce has no choice but to do the same!
The managers have now received news that the decision regarding the next steps of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce has been issued from the Vast Heaven Holy Land and will be distributed to all Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce today.
Although the decision hasn't been made yet, all parties understand that besides layoffs and pay cuts, what else can be done?
Therefore, in everyone's eyes, this upcoming decision is like a sharp blade hanging over everyone's head, and no one can do anything but wait for the blade to fall.
Rumors are circulating that Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce is planning to lay off more than 70% of its staff. This means that the vast majority of people present will have to leave Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce. Even those who remain don't know when the second wave of layoffs will begin. Even if they manage to avoid this one, can they escape the next?
Amidst everyone's helplessness... the first decision of the Vast Heaven Holy Land finally reached the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce!
The managers opened the decision documents immediately upon receiving them...
As the documents were opened, the stewards were all dumbfounded...
Is it not a decision document for layoffs and salary reductions?
The decision document that was opened at this moment contained very simple content.
After Senior Brother Xinghe's approval and the Grand Elder's agreement, Feng Fei will step down as president of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce, and Qin Xiangqian will take over as president of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce from now on!
Good heavens! As this news spread to Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce across the country, countless members of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce were moved to tears!
No one was surprised that Vice President Qin Xiangqian had become President.
After all, although Vice President Qin was the vice president before, he basically exercised the power of the president of Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, everyone knows that Qin Xiangqian's promotion to president of Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce is basically a foregone conclusion; it's just a matter of time.
What surprised everyone this time was that the order issued was not for layoffs and salary reductions at Vast Heaven Holy Land.
Is it just the appointment of Vice President Qin as president?
For a moment, countless members of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce were jumping for joy.
But this joy didn't last long. As news of Qin Xiangqian's promotion to president of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce spread, people from all sides remarked, "You people from the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce are still jumping around... still happy..."
You have no idea what you're going to experience next!
Do you think this appointment of Qin Xiangqian as president is just an ordinary appointment?
Absolutely wrong!
This appointment document contains countless things you wouldn't expect!
One knowledgeable person commented, "You people from Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce are too naive... This isn't an appointment document, it's just a notice of impending layoffs and pay cuts!"
The expert said, "Think about it, who was the previous president of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce?"
That's Feng Fei, right...? Regardless of whether Feng Fei has never really cared about the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce, just tell me, isn't Feng Fei's position as president perfectly legitimate?
The expert said, "Tell me, why didn't the Vast Heaven Holy Land give the position of guild leader to Qin Xiangqian before? Why did they give it to Qin Xiangqian now?"
You don't actually think Qin Xiangqian got a promotion, do you?
Absolutely wrong!
Qin Xiangqian is not getting a promotion; Qin Xiangqian's doomed!
Qin Xiangqian was pushed forward to become the chairman at this time. Is this a promotion? It's obviously just a scapegoat.
Who is Feng Fei? Everyone knows that Feng Fei is the Grand Elder's son and disciple!
Even Chu Xinghe had to respectfully address Senior Brother Feng Fei!
If Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce were to implement large-scale layoffs and salary reductions now, do you know how much change that would cause?
If Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce lays off 70% of its staff, how many people will leave? And will those people be willing to leave?
At that point, wouldn't they blame Feng Fei for the main reason they were laid off?
After all, regardless of whether Feng Fei had managed the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce before, you're the president, so who else would they turn to if not you?
Look at the recent layoffs and salary reductions by chambers of commerce around the world; those laid-off employees are making a huge fuss with the chamber presidents...
So if we're talking about cleverness, the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce is definitely the smarter one.
Vast Heaven Holy Land first extricated Feng Fei from the situation, and then carried out large-scale layoffs and salary reductions. No matter how dissatisfied the subordinates were, they could only complain to Qin Xiangqian!
The layoffs and pay cuts will have nothing to do with Feng Fei.
After all, he is the Grand Elder's son and disciple; at a time like this, he must protect himself.
So, is it possible that Qin Xiangqian is now the one taking the blame?
So you still think Qin Xiangqian got a promotion?
Qin Xiangqian was just pushed out to take the blame!
Wow, with the expert's analysis, everyone agreed that it made sense!
Let alone outsiders, even those within the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce were somewhat convinced by Brother Dong's analysis!
Those who were just moments before excited that this time it wasn't layoffs or pay cuts instantly felt their hearts sink to the bottom.
Because Brother Dong's analysis seemed perfectly reasonable, in this situation, it seemed entirely logical to single out Feng Fei and make Qin Xiangqian take the blame!
Just as countless members of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce were filled with unease, the Vast Heaven Holy Land its second decision regarding the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce. This decision stunned the entire Three Continents, leaving them speechless...
