Chapter 343 – Inspecting the President’s Office
Dennis Gate tightened his lips, anger made his handsome face look a bit grim, but he did not retort.
The Gate Group had already offended one The Carter Group, it couldn’t offend the Park Group as well, or else it would really be at the point of no return!
“Brother, I’m really doing this for your own good.” David Gate’s voice softened.
At that moment there was a knock on the door, she said come in, and a few project managers from The Gate Group walked in with a pile of information, briefly reporting to the two about the project’s basic mode of operation, as well as its current progress.
Finally, a project manager stepped forward and said, “There’s nothing wrong with a few of the current projects, it’s just the funding …”
The profits of these projects are very good, but the funds are not available, and they are also ingenious!
“Don’t worry about the funding, I’ve spoken to The Si Group over there and they’ve agreed to lend us money at a lower interest rate, which is more cost-effective than a bank loan and doesn’t require as much complicated paperwork.” David Gate said.
“Wait!” Dennis Gate had been holding back since a couple of project managers came in, “I’m talking about carrying out these projects in the last three years, who told you to turn them on at the same time in one day?!”
Several project managers looked at each other in dismay, during the time that the president had been in a coma, it had been Director Gu who had been handling the company’s affairs, and they had acted on Miss Gu’s orders this time.
“All of you go ahead and go down, the plan will go on as usual.” David Gate said.
Several project managers pretended not to see Dennis Gate’s ugly face and hurriedly all went out.
“You told them to open these programs at the same time?” Dennis Gate’s voice was colored with a bit of raspiness as he asked this, “Why didn’t you listen to me?”
“I’m the one who arranged it. If we follow your plan and it drags on too long, The Carter Group opens the project before us and we’re out of luck.” David Gate said.
Dennis Gate slightly lowered his head, bangs in front of his forehead hid the color of his eyes, the man who was always gentle and elegant looked gloomy at this moment.
“I know you’re afraid you’ll piss off Tess Baker if you start getting her attention at the same time. But do you think she won’t find out if you delay?” David Gate raised his voice as he said the last sentence.
Dennis Gate clenched his fists and looked pained, “Stop it!”
“Even if I didn’t say it, it’s still true that in Tess Baker’s mind, you’re already a backstabbing villain! And even if you weren’t a villain in her heart, she wouldn’t like you.”
David Gate walked up to him and bent down, going from angry to begging, “Brother, let it be that I’m begging you to stop fantasizing about her, okay?”
…
The Carter Group headquarters, conference room.
The Carter Group’s senior management sat in a circle around the conference table, everyone looking serious.
“This leakage of confidential documents is so bad that the other party has already constituted an economic crime, I think we should call the police and bring that mole to justice with their help!”
“The most important thing now is not to call the police or bring the traitor to justice, but to find a way to salvage it as soon as possible and keep the damage to a minimum!”
“Boss Dev is being inconsistent with his words, how are you going to minimize the losses if you don’t catch the mole? At the beginning when the ‘Sunshine’ project was leaked, we should have raised our spirits to find that mole!”
The Carter Group is big, and this time, executives from the head office as well as heads of subsidiaries came with a wide range of opinions and ideas.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Bowen Carter swept his cold eyes over the crowd and snapped his fingers slightly curled over the table a few times, “Quiet.”
The voice was not loud, but the various administrations who were in the middle of a heated discussion stopped their voices at the same time and looked at him, waiting for him to speak.
Bowen Carter looked at the ASSISTANT beside him and said, “Let’s get started.”
assistant, “These projects grabbed by The Gate Group have a couple of things in common: One, their project programs are not identical to ours, just the same general framework, with significant differences in the details. Two, these projects are all important to The Carter Group, and the project managers have been briefed in the president’s office.”
He paused for a moment and continued, “After analyzing the situation we believe that the president’s office may be equipped with something like a bug, which would explain everything.”
Bowen Carter, who was also hearing ASSISTANT’s analysis for the first time, didn’t know what came to mind, but his eyebrows knitted up and his already somber expression darkened a few more points.
The senior management at the conference table all held their breath for fear of upsetting their thunderous president.
“It just so happens that I’m proficient in electronic products like wiretaps, so why don’t you let me check it out?” Someone said with a stiff upper lip. This is a good opportunity to brush your face in front of the president, once in a million years!
Bowen Carter stared straight at the man for a moment, hmmm’ing as a cold sweat started to form on the other man’s head.
“Let me take Mr. Liu there.” ASSISTANT said.
Mr. Liu was about to say yes when Bowen Carter said, “No need.”
The crowd froze for a moment before he stood up, “I’ll go over with him.”
Listen to this, the crowd is envious and sympathetic, the president attaches great importance to this leak, if Mr. Liu really find that bug, will definitely gain the goodwill of the president!
But the president’s aura is too strong, if Mr. Liu is slightly weaker psychologically, he may not play well.
Bowen Carter went to the president’s office with Mr. Liu, who entered the room and swept his eyes over the potted cactus, then moved away and sat down behind his desk.
“So I’m starting?” Mr. Liu’s hands were sweating, he was now as nervous as the little girl he interviewed the other day.
Bowen Carter nodded and suddenly asked, “Got a cigarette?”
“… There, there!” Mr. Liu hurriedly took out a cigarette and handed it over, respectfully lighting it for him.
Bowen Carter finger cigarette to the mouth, but thought Tess Baker does not like him to smoke, he looked at the cigarette for a while, just lit not long to put out the cigarette, thrown into the ashtray.
Mr. Liu felt that today’s president is a little strange, but I can not say where it is strange, he did not dare to gossip too much, sank his heart to check every corner of the president’s office, even those potted plants on the balcony did not let go.
But these places were fine, and he walked over to his desk, aiming for the potted cactus on it.
“Put it down.” Mr. Liu all but picked it up, and Bowen Carter commanded in a cold voice, his brows furrowed, his face not looking very good.
Mr. Liu’s hand trembled, almost dropped the fairy ball, fortunately he reacted faster and grabbed the fairy ball, only his hand was scratched twice, poking out two small blood gouges.
He put the cactus on the table and said carefully, “I’ve checked everywhere else, there’s no bug, maybe the bug is in this cactus …”
“Nothing can go wrong with what my wife gave me.” Not waiting for him to finish, Bowen Carter interrupted, as if speaking to him and to himself.
