Chapter 584 Li Jingnan instructed
After Shen Qing left.
Yan Bei stood up and stood in front of the French window.
Yan Bei stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a serious expression. The bustling city scene outside the window was like a blurry phantom in his eyes, with no appeal at all.
As the president of Yuzheng Group, Yan Bei was fully aware of the severity of this situation. Not only could it damage the company's reputation and lead to the loss of existing customers, but it could also potentially trigger a series of legal disputes and financial compensation. An atmosphere of tension and anxiety permeated the company, with every department urgently strategizing. Yan Bei's inner pressure was unimaginable.
He frowned slightly, his eyes fixed on the distance, his thoughts racing. Every step of the project's progress replayed in his mind. What had gone wrong? Was it the supplier's substandard materials, or was there poor oversight during construction? Each possible cause stabbed him like a sharp knife, piercing his heart.
He felt that this time, a major problem lay with the project manager. Although he had just reprimanded Gao Fei, he felt that there was more to this matter. This wasn't the first time a project Gao Fei had been in charge of had gone wrong, though the previous issues had been minor. This time, the problem was related to his eyes, and he couldn't just accept someone else's explanation. He had to investigate it himself.
He sighed softly, his breath creating a hazy mist on the glass. He reached out and unconsciously ran his hand across the glass, as if trying to dispel the invisible haze before him. The company's future, the trust of his customers, the morale of his team... all of this weighed heavily on his shoulders, leaving him breathless.
But he must make it clear about all of this and give everyone a reasonable explanation, otherwise he, as the president of Yuzheng Group, will be a failure.
. . . . . .
After a while.
Yan Bei and Shen Qing went to the construction site together.
Arriving at the site, we were met with a scene of chaos. Construction materials were scattered haphazardly, and some of the partially constructed structures looked shaky, with anxious workers standing by.
Yan Bei knew that the situation was urgent, so without any delay, he went straight to the core area of the project to investigate.
He first carefully inspected the building structure and found that the materials in many key parts were seriously inconsistent with the specified standards.
Next, Yan Bei went to the warehouse where construction materials were stored and picked up a steel beam that was supposed to be high-strength. He easily discovered that it was soft and far from the required weight. After inspecting various types of materials one by one, Yan Bei confirmed that shoddy workmanship had been involved.
Yan Bei then decided to start with the personnel. He gathered all the workers on site to understand the daily construction situation. Although the workers had some concerns, they gradually opened up after Yan Bei's sincere questioning and reassurances.
From their description, Yan Bei learned that the project manager seemed to interfere a lot in the material procurement and construction process, and often required the use of some cheap but questionable quality materials.
Yan Bei had a general idea in mind and went straight to the project leader. When he met the project leader, he appeared calm on the surface, but his eyes could hardly hide his panic.
Just now in the company, the project leader Gao Fei admitted his mistake, but now he seems like a different person.
But Yan Bei also felt that Gao Fei was not the type of person who could do such a thing, because Gao Fei had worked at Yuzheng Group for a long time and had never encountered such a thing before.
Yan Bei went straight to the point, pointed out the serious quality problems in materials and construction, and questioned the person in charge for the reasons.
Yan Bei sneered and presented the evidence he had just gathered, including samples of substandard materials and testimonies from workers, to the person in charge. Faced with the irrefutable evidence, the person in charge's face turned pale, his legs weakened, and he nearly fell to the ground. He had no choice but to admit that he had deliberately cut corners for personal gain.
In order to make more money from the project, he colluded with some bad suppliers and passed off inferior products as good ones, completely disregarding the quality of the project and the possible serious consequences.
Yan Bei continued, "I don't believe this was your idea alone. Tell me, who instructed you to do this?"
Gao Fei glanced at Yan Bei, then lowered his head, "Young Master Yan, I don't understand what you mean?"
"I want to know who told you to do this." Yan Bei's tone was serious.
"I...I wanted to do this myself. Master Yan, if you want to punish me, then do it!"
Yan Bei's sharp gaze was completely fixed on Gao Fei.
"I trust you very much. I don't believe you can do such a thing."
"Mr. Yan, this was really my idea." Gao Fei said.
At this time, Yang Jian came over.
He whispered beside Yan Bei, "Young Master Yan, I just checked and found out that Gao Fei has been very close to Li Jingnan from the Li Group these past few days. I also heard that they only met recently and didn't know each other at all before."
Yan Bei frowned.
It seems that this matter is related to Li Jingnan?
Yan Bei raised his eyes and looked at Gao Fei again, "Do you know Li Jingnan from the Li Group?"
"No, I don't know him." Gao Fei quickly replied, his eyes evasive.
Yan Bei's eyes were fixed on Gao Fei, watching his expression change.
"Since I'm asking you this, it means I already know something."
"I……"
"Gao Fei, if you still don't admit it, then I can only ask the law to punish you. I will put you in jail for life. I heard that you come from a single-parent family with a teenage child! If you go to jail, think about what will happen to your child?"
"I...I said."
"Say it!"
"Li Jingnan instructed me to do this. She said she was doing this to damage the reputation of Yuzheng Group."
Shen Qing, who was standing by, heard this and said angrily, "How can Li Jingnan still be so mean? He really can't stand seeing others doing well."
Yan Bei looked at Shen Qing, "Wife, don't be angry. We won't let her go."
"Yes, she must be severely punished." Shen Qing said.
At this time, Yang Jian ran over again.
"Young Master Yan, there are a bunch of reporters gathered outside the scene."
"Did they hear the news so quickly?" Yan Bei was a little confused.
Shen Qing said, "Li Jingnan dared to instruct Gao Fei to do this. She must have planned it in advance, and these reporters should have planned it too."
Yan Bei nodded and said, "I'm going to go out for a while, you wait here!"
"I'd better follow you. I'm afraid you can't handle it."
"All right!"
Yan Bei appeared, accompanied by a group of assistants. His expression was solemn, and his steps were steady yet a hint of fatigue was visible. Before Yan Bei could even stand firmly, reporters swarmed over him, microphones and recording equipment almost touching his face.
