After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune Chapter 632

Chapter 632: 531, to make it perish, you must first let it go insane (asking for monthly votes) Chapter 632: 531, to make it perish, you must first let it go insane (asking for monthly votes) “It's just a seating arrangement, no big deal,”
Zhang Fengshou gently shook his head, amused by his thoughts.

He knew Kang Zhichao quite well, after all, they had a good rapport years ago.

But they were never really on the same path.

Kang Zhichao was the type who liked to be clever in petty ways, loved to take small advantages, and had a knack for flattering.

He was a typical “schemer.”
Virtually every large enterprise had someone like him.

Their common trait was that it was difficult for them to reach high positions, as the top leaders weren't fools and had their own criteria for choosing their staff.

However, these individuals were quite good at maneuvering and usually managed to reach mid to lower management levels.

Zhang Fengshou, a typical hard worker with outstanding abilities, naturally disliked someone like Kang Zhichao.

Thus, their parting ways was inevitable.

As they say, “Those not of one's path should not make plans together.”
But out of respect for his master Kang Jingchun, Zhang Fengshou never made a fuss with Kang Zhichao.

After all, it wasn't as though the other could cause any real trouble, at worst doing something irritating like he did today.

But today was different from the past, because Kang Zhichao was about to be humiliated soon!

In a moment's time, at the workers' meeting, Yang Hao would appoint Zhang Fengshou as the new plant manager of Xiangyang Steel Plant.

That meant, from now on, no matter what meeting was held internally at the Xiangyang Steel Plant, Zhang Fengshou's nameplate would be placed in the center!

“So he's just the new boss's uncle, is he?

Acting all high and mighty like this!”
“Today I really got a deeper understanding of the phrase 'borrowing tiger's might'!”
“One would think he's the new plant manager of the steel plant if they didn't know any better!”
Zhang Fengshou was completely indifferent.

However, his entourage weren't pleased with Kang Zhichao's behavior and began talking about him at length.

The workers at the steel plant, mostly uneducated, especially the frontline workers who were usually high school or technical school graduates, disliked Kang Zhichao's behavior.

As they complained, they involuntarily used words like 'parents.'
“This is what you call a petty person achieving a modicum of power!”
“Stop talking about it, he might actually become the plant manager, since he's the new boss's uncle!”
“Fuck!

If he becomes the manager, can our factory still be okay?”
“Exactly, if he really becomes the manager, then we might as well wait to be laid off!”
The group of workers cursed and complained, all having a poor impression of Kang Zhichao.

At that moment, having completed the nameplate switch, Kang Zhichao contentedly nodded, “Now that's more like it.”
“This nameplate is just like people, it should recognize its own place.”
After switching the nameplate, Kang Zhichao still wasn't satisfied and muttered meaningfully.

Sun Hai, standing next to him, immediately agreed, “Exactly, some people just can't figure out their proper place.”
“Old Kang, you know I'm the best at understanding my own position!”
Sun Hai was also a cunning man, excellent at adjusting his sails to the wind.

Seeing that Kang Zhichao, the new boss's uncle, was about to rise, he had started treating him like his own superior.

The people who used to dominate above him were now humble before him, which made Kang Zhichao very pleased.

It even dissipated much of the dissatisfaction he had accumulated earlier.

“Mr.

Zhang, you've come pretty early.”
As Zhang Fengshou approached the podium, the busy Director of the plant office, Liu Guomin, immediately greeted him with a hearty smile.

Actually, it was Liu Guomin who placed Zhang Fengshou's nameplate, and he did so upon receiving instructions from Zheng Dongshan just ten minutes earlier.

Zheng Dongshan had sent him a Weixin message, simply reminding him to place Zhang Fengshou's nameplate to the right of his own.

As the Director of the plant manager's office, Liu Guomin was very sensitive to such details.

Though Zheng Dongshan did not elaborate, his sending a Weixin message at all indicated its importance.

The keen Liu Guomin even ventured a bold guess: Zhang Fengshou, the vice manager who had not been very favored, might be moving up.

Therefore, Liu Guomin was very polite to Zhang Fengshou, not just today.

Liu Guomin was a man of many faces; although he was on Zheng Dongshan's side, he maintained excellent relationships with the leadership at the plantaEUR”at least superficially.

Everything always seemed harmonious, and he didn't express his dislikes as openly as Kang Zhichao did.

This was also why Liu Guomin had managed to become the director of the plant's office, a role that demanded his kind of skills; otherwise, it would have been difficult to carry out the work.

“I came over as soon as I finished my work.”
Zhang Fengshou responded, and then he took the initiative to greet Sun Hai.

However, Sun Hai's attitude was rather cold this time.

In his view, this was an extremely rare opportunity to pick sides.

Since Kang Zhichao didn't like Zhang Fengshou, Sun Hai, who wanted to cling to Kang Zhichao, naturally joined in the animosity!

Zhang Fengshou, on the other hand, seemed completely indifferent.

He walked around the stage and then sat down behind the nameplate that bore his name.

The moment Zhang Fengshou had just settled down, Wei Mingjun, who was also a vice director, arrived at the scene.

“Director Kang, you've worked hard.”
“You led the team in setting up everything here, right?”
Wei Mingjun credited all the work to Kang Zhichao, proactively offering him a favor.

“All I did was make some suggestions; I didn't exert much effort.”
Kang Zhichao replied modestly.

“Director Kang, no need to be so modest.

Without your suggestions, they couldn't have set up the venue this well.”
Wei Mingjun too was a seasoned sycophant.

Although he was a vice director, with the changing times at the steel plant, it wasn't even certain if he could maintain his position for long.

In his view, keeping his job as vice director required maintaining a good relationship with Kang Zhichao.

This was akin to favor from the 'Imperial Family.'
“Mr.

Wei, see if there are any more oversights?”
With a beaming smile, Kang Zhichao responded; his smile almost reaching his ears as Wei Mingjun, a vice director, was now flattering him.

Kang Zhichao genuinely wanted his wife, Wang Huixin, to come and see what kind of standing he had in the plant!

And to keep her temper in check at home from now on!

Or else, she might be replaced!

Yes, this was indeed worth considering.

It was quite normal for successful men to change wives!

Kang Zhichao thought giddily, already branding himself as a successful man.

While they were mutually boasting, Liu Guomin, who noticed Zhang Fengshou's nameplate had been switched, let out a quiet exclamation and then walked over to switch Zhang Fengshou's and Wei Mingjun's nameplates.

“Mr.

Zhang, please sit over here.”
After swapping the places, Liu Guomin politely said to Zhang Fengshou.

However, this move did not sit well with Kang Zhichao and Wei Mingjun.

The two, who had been praising each other, involuntarily stopped and then both looked sharply at Liu Guomin.

“Director Liu, what do you mean by this?”
“These nameplates aren't just for swapping around!”
Kang Zhichao, who had been floating on cloud nine, seemed to have forgotten that he was ranked lower than Liu Guomin.

He spoke with a tone of accusation, as if a leader were reprimanding a subordinate.

“Director Liu, this was a mistake on your part.”
“The nameplates are always arranged as they were before!”
Sun Hai did not want to miss the chance to ally himself with the team, and he chimed in with Kang Zhichao.
