"Mr. Xia."
After taking a tour of Security Group 1, Xia Xu came to Security Group 2 where Zou Jin and Zhou Mingjie were.
The members of Security Team 2 were all elite spies sent by various forces, so they had been placed in another nearby training base under the pretext of on-the-job training. While undergoing daily training, they were also asked to patrol surrounding industries.
As soon as they arrived at the base, Zou Jin, who was organizing everyone for daily training, immediately asked everyone to stand still and jogged over.
Judging from the strict discipline in this line of business, even the martial arts fanatic Zhou Mingjie was very cooperative and did not sing any objections. It seems that Zou Jin has made very good progress in the past half month.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Xia Xu casually threw the bottle of mineral water that he hadn't drunk yet over there.
"Mr. Xia, you are joking. I just take people for a run. That's not hard work."
Zou Jin was flattered to take the mineral water, and then responded embarrassedly.
He knew very well that he was different from the others in Group 2.
You have to know that I really "sold my life" at the beginning. Mr. Xia was paid millions for my life, and my family members were also arranged properly, directly or indirectly.
Originally, he was even ready to risk his life. He also thought that Mr. Xia might want him to do something desperate and risky. He was mentally prepared to lose his life or go to jail.
Unexpectedly, in the end, he only got a normal security supervisor position, leading people to conduct training and patrols every day.
Not only does he have a high salary and no risks, he also has some power over a large number of people. This is a complete rise to fame for him, who was once just a small construction worker.
To be able to earn money by risking one's life and enjoy the benefits without any risk is absolutely a godsend for other people, and the same is true for him, but his nature makes him feel uneasy all the time.
"How's your work going?"
Xia Xu nodded slightly, walked towards the security team 2 who were lined up not far away, and turned his head to ask Zou Jin who was following closely.
"Mr. Xia, I have completed everything you asked me to do, and everyone has been quite cooperative, but I cannot guarantee whether they are truly wholeheartedly doing so."
Zou Jin answered with some shame.
"The human heart is hard to predict. There is no such thing as absolute."
Xia Xu smiled and said soothingly.
What he was referring to was, of course, what he had asked Zou Jin to do before he went to the Magic City to win over people's hearts according to the obsession he had seen.
If his obsession is money, the treatment of his Xinghai creatures has always been higher than that of his peers, and this is naturally even more true for those who need to be won over.
For those situations where financial assistance is needed urgently, Zou Jin will apply to the company. Xia Xu has already made arrangements on the company's side, and the company will naturally provide salary advances and a small amount of aid.
Or you can use the company's connections and legal resources to help with some consultation and contact, such as helping with bank loans, fighting some simple property dispute lawsuits, and using connections to make connections when there are medical needs.
This is enough to solve most common problems, not just financial ones. Many miscellaneous problems are really just trivial matters in front of the size and connections of a group company.
The most important thing is that Xia Xu basically didn't have to put in much effort in dealing with these things. Anyway, the group's legal department was idle anyway, and it wasn't like they really had to go to court. Most of the time, sending a lawyer's letter or asking a few questions was more than enough.
The company's personal connections are also well-used. Small matters will not rise to the level of wasting favors. Most of the various partners are busy trying to please Xinghai Creatures, so a casual word from the company is more effective than an ordinary person begging on his knees.
And if the obsession is about emotions, there is also a group of female employees in the company who can offer advice and temporarily act as emotional experts, with Zou Jin and others acting as wingmen. After a few interactions, they not only solve the problems but also become familiar with each other.
Of course, in addition to commercial spies, a large number of these people come from organizations that are either black or somewhere in between black and white.
This group of people is much more complicated. Some are obsessed with hatred, some are simply caught in a situation and have no choice, and some even come willingly out of gratitude.
However, these people were recruited by Xia Xu himself, and naturally some screening had been done. Those who were truly bitter and vengeful or had no obvious obsessions or weaknesses had already been turned away, and those who were able to stay all had room for maneuver.
Although Zou Jin was not as active as Guo Feilong during these twenty days, he also went out many times with some people who gradually returned home.
Either seek legal help from the group's legal department such as Zhang San or do it yourself, and basically all the problems that can be solved have been solved.
After all, those in Security Team 2 are all talented people. There are many two or three-star experts who are capable of infiltration, tracking, investigation, and theft. When they work together, they are a force that cannot be ignored.
"Everyone, you should still know me, right?"
After learning a little about the situation from Zou Jin, Xia Xu walked over to the queue of Security Team 2 with a smile and stood there.
“Hello, Boss!”
Everyone spoke in loud and unison, and it seemed that they had undergone special training.
"From what I know, you all seem to have complaints about the induction training after joining the company, and many of you submitted your resignation applications immediately."
Xia Xu's calm gaze swept across everyone's faces one by one: "According to regulations, unilateral termination of a labor contract requires thirty days in advance.
Now that twenty days have passed, I believe you have a basic understanding of the company. I would like to ask, do you still want to resign now? "
These people are all spies, and Xia Xu also knows that they are spies. Both sides are well aware of this. After all, it was too obvious to have singled these people out to form Security Group 2.
The so-called "complaints" about the on-the-job training are naturally a face-saving statement.
These people originally signed very strict labor contracts, but the labor contracts can be unilaterally terminated with a written application thirty days in advance, and the binding force is only for one month.
At that time, these people knew that they had been exposed, so naturally, except for a small number of people who were lucky enough to get away with it, most of them submitted their applications as soon as possible.
However, Xia Xu didn't care about it. He only needed this month. If he couldn't make these people return to their hearts within this month, there would be no point in forcing them to stay. If he wasn't careful, they might become a time bomb and they would just leave.
"Boss, can you answer a question for me?"
Faced with Xia Xu's obscure yet straightforward question, everyone in Security Team 2 fell silent. After looking at each other, someone finally mustered up the courage to speak.
"Okay, go ahead."
Xia Xu nodded.
"I want to know if you, boss, can do this without any suspicion if I stay."
Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. The voice of the person who spoke became louder and louder.
"Of course, I will treat everyone equally."
Xia Xu smiled slightly and said, "I know that many of you have this concern in your hearts now, and maybe you think I am just talking, but..."
When he said the word "but", his voice became higher, and his eyes scanned the faces of everyone again: "I, Xia Xu, was able to build my current foundation at the age of twenty, relying on nothing else but a pair of eyes that can recognize people.
Since I can pick you out from the applicants, I can naturally pick out those who have ulterior motives as well!
I don't have any doubts about people I employ. If I employ you, it's because I have absolute confidence in you. I don't trust you, but I trust myself!"
These words were spoken with high spirits, confidence and pride, fully displaying the self-confidence and arrogance of a successful genius, but precisely because of this, they are even more convincing.
I don't trust you! I trust myself!
I think you won't betray, it's impossible for you to betray!
Arrogant and overbearing, yet with a certain sense of self-righteousness that is logical in itself.
Geniuses are always surrounded by halos, and there is also a certain stereotype, and arrogance is one of them.
Is Boss Xia a genius
Of course, he is, the unprecedented top scorer in the college entrance examination with full marks, the absolute controller of the rising star giant Xinghai Group. If he is not considered a genius, then there are probably no geniuses in the world.
In this way, these words are naturally more credible and more of a combination of kindness and severity.
I won’t doubt you if I use you, that’s a favor!
I can see at a glance that you have changed your mind, this is Wei!
Of course, words are not enough, and the credibility of these words is ultimately limited. Therefore, no matter whether it is kindness or severity, there is always a lack of the crucial fire.
"Now, I'm going to read out the names: Hu Jun, Qian Chou, Sun Bin..."
Xia Xu then recited seven or eight names in a row.
The human heart is hard to predict.
But unfortunately, he can read people's minds!
Although Zou Jin was the leader of these people's obsession, most of them were resolved by the company or in the name of the company, so their favorability naturally fell on him and the company.
Among these people, those who truly came to him because of his kindness and the resolution of their obsessions would naturally have a favorability level of over 60 or 70. If it did not reach this level, even if they did not have ulterior motives, they would be rather cold-hearted.
"For those whose names I just read, I have approved your labor contract termination applications. You can leave now, and I will pay you your full monthly salary."
After Xia Xu finished reading the list, he calmly announced: "The rest of you who stay will be treated equally as employees of Xinghai Biology, and you will also be the core force responsible for the company's security."
Seven or eight names, plus these words, caused subtle changes in the expressions of everyone present.
"Why? Why should we be fired?"
"Yes, why should I?"
"Boss Xia, you have to give us an explanation if you fire us, right?"
The eight people whose names Xia Xu mentioned all looked angry.
"Let me correct you. I am not firing you. You submitted your resignation application half a month ago. I am just approving it now."
Xia Xu corrected him and said calmly: "As for why, it's very simple. The other reasons are all secondary. The main reason is that I don't trust you. I have just said that I will treat everyone who stays equally, and those who cannot be trusted will have to leave."
The angry people were suddenly choked.
Among the rest of the people who stayed behind, many of them had strange expressions on their faces. If they were not lining up, considering the discipline issues, some of them would probably have started whispering.
"If I remember correctly, Qian Chou does seem to be unpopular. He seems to be quite selfish. Even his roommates don't like to interact with him."
"Apart from training and patrolling, Hu Jun is always elusive..."
"Sun Bin privately seems to be quite dissatisfied with the boss and Captain Zou, but he is not stupid enough to show it openly. Apart from the few people in our dormitory, there shouldn't be many people who know about it, right?"
Everyone who was familiar with the people on the list pondered secretly and suddenly discovered that there were actually quite suspicious points about the people who were pointed out.
Some are selfish by nature, some are elusive, and some are subtle expressions of attitude.
But the problem is, these people are not stupid, and they are specially hired as commercial spies. How could they show it openly? Only when they get along with each other day and night can they vaguely feel their hidden nature. Only time will tell.
Could it be that the boss can really see through people's hearts
This made everyone both fearful and grateful. They were afraid of this ability to see through people's hearts, but also grateful that if they stayed, they might really be reused without suspicion.
