Imperial warlords: Cannons are the only truth

Chapter 332 The Most Worried Problem



Chapter 332 The Most Worried Problem

Although I was extremely indignant about Ishino's actions and wished I could tear him to pieces immediately.

However, Qiu Bingrui still did not reveal Shi Ye's identity in front of Min Wenyao.

After all, considering their entire revenge plan—Ishino's act of kicking someone when they were down made Qiu Bingrui grit her teeth in hatred.

But Qiu Bingrui still had to consider the overall situation.

In short—before she herself was out of danger, she still had to do everything she could to protect Ishino.

Even if we were to settle scores with Ishino, that would be a matter for the future.

However, Qiu Bingrui truthfully confessed to the Imperial Security Administration the research projects carried out at the seven secret research bases.

Because Qiu Bingrui was very clear that since Shi Ye dared to take this step, he must have arranged everything before taking action.

Therefore, Qiu Bingrui was not worried that the Imperial Security Agency would use this information to find Shi Ye.

After this incident, Aurora's stock price also suffered a fatal blow.

Following the continued escalation of the "Aurora X All-Round Assist Robot" vulnerability incident and the armed attacks on seven Aurora Corporation research bases.

Aurora Mobile's stock price has already hit the daily limit down...

In other words, Aurora Mobile could very well be dragged down by this crisis and end up going bankrupt and being liquidated.

However, we face a variety of unfavorable situations and factors.

What worries Qiu Bingrui the most is still the detailed investigation and one-on-one interviews that the Imperial Security Agency is conducting on the "Aurora X All-Round Assistive Robot" project team.

If Fang Zhengkang couldn't withstand the pressure or spoke out out of resentment at being replaced, that would be the most fatal blow to the entire Aurora Company and Qiu Bingrui!

-------------------------------------

the other side.

The Imperial Security Agency continues to hold individual interviews with members of the "Aurora X All-Around Assistive Robot" project team.

The talks were conducted in rotation.

While participating in the testing of the "Aurora X All-Round Assistive Robot", the "Aurora X All-Round Assistive Robot" project team took turns being individually questioned by the Imperial Security Agency.

"Fang Zhengkang, it's your turn."

The person in charge of the interview mentioned Fang Zhengkang's name.

When it was Fang Zhengkang's turn to speak, Zheng Tong, who was involved in the testing work, was clearly taken aback and glanced at Fang Zhengkang's departing figure with a complicated expression.

After a while.

"Sir..."

After sitting down, Fang Zhengkang asked the person in charge of the inquiry, "Could I have a cigarette first?"

"I'm having a nicotine craving..."

“This is all I have—I don’t know if Professor Fang can handle this brand.” Lu Yunshan, a senior agent from the Imperial Security Agency in charge of the inquiry, casually pushed the cigarette and lighter in front of Fang Zhengkang.

"Thanks............."

"I have a heavy smoking habit, but I'm not picky about the brand of cigarettes."

While thanking him, Fang Zhengkang picked up a cigarette and lit it for himself.

"call................"

Fang Zhengkang took a few deep breaths and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Sir, we can begin."

“Okay.” Lu Yunshan casually flipped through the file about Fang Zhengkang in his hand: “Professor Fang, as far as I know—you should be one of the first batch of senior talents recruited by Aurora Company, right?”

"You were the research lead for this project at Aurora Corporation before the official delivery of the 'Aurora X All-Around Assistive Robot'."

"And Zheng Tong, the person in charge of the 'Aurora X All-Around Assistive Robot' project, was previously his apprentice whom he personally mentored."

"The reason Zheng Tong was able to join Aurora Company was because you personally recommended him."

"Right?"

“Yes…” Fang Zhengkang nodded noncommittally: “Zheng Tong was once my most prized and promising disciple.”

"He is very talented, or rather, he is a rare genius..."

"The Yangtze River's back waves push the front waves forward..."

"I should feel gratified to be replaced by such an outstanding student."

"This proves I have a good eye for choosing apprentices..."

As Lu Yunshan listened to Fang Zhengkang's account, he keenly sensed something amiss.

Although—Fang Zhengkang’s words sounded like he was lamenting that the younger generation was surpassing the older, and that he had trained a good apprentice who had surpassed him.

However, Fang Zhengkang's tone and demeanor subtly conveyed a sense of helplessness, resentment, and even indignation.

As a senior interrogation expert at the Imperial Security Agency, Lu Yunshan was very confident in his ability to capture details and his judgment.

Therefore, Fang Zhengkang's behavior immediately alerted Lu Yunshan to something was wrong.

"Professor Fang."

"IMHO..............."

Seeing that Fang Zhengkang had just finished his cigarette, Lu Yunshan personally handed him one: "Actually, after I looked at the internal files of your Aurora Company, I also found it very strange."

"It seems that Zheng Tong replacing you doesn't conform to your Aurora Company's internal appointment system, does it?"

"Moreover, the apprentice replaces the teacher, while the teacher continues to work under the apprentice."

Regarding this personnel arrangement...

"Professor Fang, do you really not have even the slightest complaint?"

Lu Yunshan smiled and said, "To be honest, even I, an outsider, feel a bit indignant for Professor Fang after seeing this."

“I think—under normal circumstances, no one would be able to stand this kind of arrangement.”

"To put it bluntly—this is a blatant insult!"

"Especially for Professor Fang, a well-known high-tech talent in the industry."

Lu Yunshan asked curiously, "Logically speaking, with Professor Fang's genuine talent and authority in the industry, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to leave Aurora Company and find a better job, right?"

"It should even be called a piece of cake!"

"So, why?"

Lu Yunshan countered, "Why would Professor Fang be willing to endure such great injustice to stay at Aurora Corporation?"

"And he's going to stay in the original team and work as an assistant to his apprentice?"

"Does Professor Fang really have absolutely no objection to this arrangement?"

"To be honest—from my personal perspective, I find it very difficult to understand Professor Fang's 'noble character'."

"Could it be that Professor Fang's recognition of your Aurora Company's core values ​​has reached a level that is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people?"

"Even if you suffer some grievances, are you willing to stay with Aurora Company and dedicate everything to the company?"

"If that's truly the reason, then your company's corporate culture is undoubtedly incredibly successful..."

"It's nothing, I'm completely convinced."

Fang Zhengkang said casually while taking a deep drag on his cigarette, "As I just said, Zheng Tong is a genius that comes along only once in a century."

"Extremely talented, a promising prospect."

"It was expected that he would be able to replace me as a teacher."

"I'm overjoyed by my apprentice's achievements; why would I be jealous?"

"If you are replaced because you are not as skilled as others, you can't blame anyone else."

Fang Zhengkang finished his cigarette in three or five puffs, then lit another one for himself: "I'm not jealous, really!"

"I'm perfectly at ease with the company's arrangement..."

"If he were truly at peace with himself, Professor Fang wouldn't have experienced such significant emotional fluctuations."

Lu Yunshan smiled and pointed to the light screen next to him: "This screen can monitor the changes in various indicators of your body in real time."

"Especially your mood indicators..."

"Data doesn't lie."

Lu Yunshan smiled and said, "When I asked those questions just now, and when Professor Fang expressed that he was very frank..."

"Professor Fang's emotional indicators fluctuated significantly."

"This shows that Professor Fang did not keep his word when facing these issues."

Lu Yunshan smiled and continued, "Actually, Professor Fang's reaction is normal and the most genuine."

"We can all understand."

"After all, it is indeed hard to understand why a high-tech talent like Professor Fang would encounter such personnel arrangements at Aurora Company."

"So now I'm very curious—what is it that makes Professor Fang, who has suffered such unfair treatment, still willing to endure this humiliation and continue to accept this arrangement?"

"Perhaps my level of understanding and awareness hasn't reached that level yet, which is why my emotions fluctuated so much..."

Fang Zhengkang shook his head: "Alright!"

“I admit – I am indeed very dissatisfied with this personnel arrangement in the company.”

"I'm also very emotional..."

"However, as I just said—if you're not as skilled, you have to step aside."

"I should be happy to be replaced by such an excellent apprentice."

“A good teacher produces outstanding students, so I’m not at a disadvantage.”

"It's just that my own level of understanding hasn't reached that point yet, which is why this fluctuation occurs..."

"I'm sorry for making a fool of myself, Commander Lu..."

Fang Zhengkang paused for a moment and continued, "As for what Commander Lu just said, he couldn't understand why I would continue to stay at Aurora Company and work under my apprentice."

Actually, the reason is very simple...............

Fang Zhengkang shrugged as he smoked, "I guess I'm just a realistic person..."

"Although my position has been demoted, to be honest, my income at Aurora Corporation has not decreased by much."

"Even after being demoted, my income at Aurora was still far higher than that of other companies in the industry."

"In other words, even if I switch to another company and take a senior position, my overall income will not be higher than if I stayed at Aurora!"

"That's why I'm willing to stay with Aurora Mobile."

Fang Zhengkang smiled and said, "So, in the end, it all comes down to one thing: money..."

"Don't we work ourselves to the bone just to earn more money?"

"As long as the money is right, suffering a little grievance is nothing."

"What do you think, Commander Lu...?"

"Indeed, Professor Fang's explanation makes sense."

Lu Yunshan smiled and said, "It seems that Professor Fang is still quite clear-headed."

"However, I've always had some questions about the salary situation at your Aurora Company."

Lu Yunshan continued, "When I was reviewing the data, I noticed that your department's various subsidies, benefits, and bonuses are far higher than those of other project teams."

"And the percentage difference is quite alarming."

"I even made a comparison specifically for this situation."

"I've discovered that Aurora Company's overall compensation package is five to ten times higher than that of its industry peers!"

"No wonder Professor Fang would rather endure such a great injustice than switch jobs to another company."

"Actually, in the question I just asked your outstanding student Zheng Tong, I also focused on the question about your salary structure."

"Because the salary and benefits that Aurora offers to your team are unique in the entire industry."

The terms "the benefits offered by Aurora Company are outrageously high" are not an exaggeration.

Lu Yunshan smiled and said, "To be honest, anyone would be envious of the treatment you receive."

"Now, I'd like to hear Professor Fang's answer to this question."

"After all, Professor Fang was the first person in charge of your team. He was the one who built the team from scratch."

"Therefore, I believe that Professor Fang's answer to this question and his knowledge of the team's inner workings are more thorough than your apprentice's."

Lu Yunshan said seriously, "This is also the main reason why we put Professor Fang's talk last for your team."

"Professor Fang, my hunch was actually quite accurate."

Lu Yunshan smiled and said, "Actually, I had a feeling of sudden enlightenment the moment Professor Fang came in."

"I have a very strong feeling that we will gain something unexpected from this conversation with Professor Fang!"

"What do you think, Professor Fang...?"
