I was forced to start the second round because I was raised in poverty

Chapter 390 Promotion (The Love-Stealing Chapter Ends)

Su Cheng recalled the seemingly doting look in Su Sheng's eyes yesterday...

So that means he already knew yesterday, before he received that fax from headquarters!
Su Cheng already knew the answer.

"Could he have deliberately written a muddled proposal and then submitted it?"

It seems there are no other possibilities.

Otherwise, the old man wouldn't have gotten so angry that he would have directly sent his precious adopted son to be in charge of some kind of Antarctic research station.

It's freezing cold, tens of degrees below zero! Is that even a place for a human to stay?

Su Sheng was not included in the frugal upbringing plan, but the old man's standards for others were quite flexible.

If Su Sheng had only written a version of the proposal that was inferior to his own, he would never have been punished in this way.

Su Sheng must have included something else in the plan.

Su Cheng felt that Su Sheng had most likely switched sides and was now on her side.

"Yeah!"

"Brother Sheng, you don't think he's so honorable, do you?"

"If you want to fulfill my wish, then stay in the 'poor upbringing' program and help me!"

"You've been exiled, how are you going to help me?!"

Try looking at it from a different perspective.

This seems to be Su Sheng's most extreme method.

Based on his understanding of Su Sheng, Su Sheng had no way to directly confront the old man; his conscience wouldn't allow him to do so.

But it can't directly help itself or reveal more information to itself.

Ultimately, Su Sheng still harbored feelings for the old man.

Su Cheng was already very moved that they had gone to such lengths.

Su Cheng certainly wouldn't dare to just explode in front of the old man like that.

Brother Sheng would rather give up his position and power in the group than not stand on my side.

Brother Sheng is much braver than I am.

So... were Su Sheng's actions effective?

it works!

It will definitely work!

Judging from Sheng Ge's early performance, he was just the old man's mindless henchman.

But now that Brother Sheng has turned against us, it must be a huge blow to the old man.

Therefore, Su Cheng naturally supports it.

but.

According to Su Cheng's understanding of the old man.

If Brother Sheng were to switch sides and support me, then it wouldn't even be a matter of being demoted.

Traitors are unwelcome in the group.

Especially... how should I put it, the relationship between ruler and subject, father and son.

Brother Sheng committed both of these offenses.

Judging from the old man's style, he might just kill Brother Sheng or lock him in the cellar.

Being exiled to Antarctica was actually the best and most lenient outcome for Brother Sheng.

In fact, the more argumentative a person is, the more obedient they tend to be.

The fact that Brother Sheng used this suicidal method shows that he still cares about the old man.

But this is also the easiest to intimidate and suppress, which precisely shows that Su Sheng cannot get rid of the old man in his heart.

To some extent, both he and Brother Sheng were controlled by the old man.

Su Cheng tried to dial Su Sheng's number, but the receiver displayed a "not in service area" message.

He glanced at his watch; Su Sheng had probably already left Shanghai by now.

Su Cheng hung up the phone.

"Alright, Sheng-ge."

He has already thought about it.

"The first administrative order I issue after I take over will be to get you exonerated."

While Su Cheng was pondering these matters, he received an email from the group's headquarters.

After reviewing the information, he discovered that headquarters had actually promoted him.

In recognition of Mr. Su Cheng's outstanding performance at UNV, he is hereby promoted to... effective immediately.

Su Cheng's position remained the same, but she took a significant leap in rank within the group.

The old man promoted him directly from K11 to K15!

My grass?

K15? !
What is this?

A sense of surprise welled up in Su Cheng's heart.

That's a promotion of four ranks in a row!

Previously, the group had had employees who were promoted four levels in a row, but those people had all made significant contributions to the group. Has Su Cheng made any significant contributions to the group?

Of course, there are.

However, if the group's rules and regulations are followed, this Unv case alone is certainly not enough to allow Su Cheng to be promoted four levels.

But if you connect this matter with Brother Sheng being exiled, it suddenly seems to make sense?
The group's reason for giving Su Cheng's explanation was that he made significant contributions to the STX case.

The headquarters believed that his proposed plan had extremely high reference value and recognized that Su Cheng was a high-value, multi-skilled talent needed by the group, so they adjusted his level within the group.

The headquarters wrote in the email: "[Until the new positions are reassigned, you will remain in your current positions for the time being]."

In other words.

My rank has changed, but my position within the group has not been adjusted.

But this "temporarily in the original position" is quite interesting. Does it mean that I might be facing another personnel transfer soon?
Su Cheng's surprise did not come from the promotion itself, but from the logic behind the old man's behavior.

"The old man panicked."

"They're really panicking."

"Otherwise, it would have been impossible for me to be promoted four levels in a row."

"They suppressed me so harshly in the early stages, not even letting me get a permanent position, and now they're giving me a rocket-like promotion?"

"It seems that Brother Sheng really dealt a heavy blow to the old man. Now he's afraid that I'll cause any more trouble."

the next day.

After Su Cheng stepped into the Yh headquarters, almost all her colleagues looked at her differently.

Even more people started greeting him, calling him "Manager Su" all the time.

Not long after entering the office, Xing Yuyuan knocked on the door and came in with a double-row coffee tray.

"Manager Su, I brought you some coffee."

"Why did you bring me coffee? Does everyone know I got promoted?"

Xing Yuyuan's expression suddenly changed: "Huh? How did you know we all knew?"

Su Cheng: ???
It’s true!

Xing Yuyuan explained that the news had actually spread from the HR department last night, and many colleagues had been discussing it in their respective group chats all night.

She chuckled and said, "Manager Su, actually I was sent by everyone to gather information. How about we gossip a bit?"

"Oh, so you're basically representing your colleagues?"

Xing Yuyuan's face broke into two shallow dimples: "Yes!"

"It's convenient for gossiping..."

"You all want to know, don't you?"

"Yeah, yeah, if it's convenient, could you satisfy our curiosity?"

Su Cheng then told her about being seconded to handle the group's cases.

This reason is actually quite valid and has strong legitimacy.

Many people within the group are recognized and promoted or given raises because they perform well on cases assigned by headquarters.

However, there won't be a single case requiring reassignment for two or three years, and even if there is, it's not guaranteed that it can be handled well.

Whether the person is promoted to a higher level or a lower level depends entirely on headquarters' assessment of their abilities, and the process can be skipped and the person is reviewed again.

There were adjustments up to level 1, adjustments up to level 4, and demotions were also common.

Therefore, Su Cheng's case is a low-probability event.

Xing Yuyuan suddenly realized.

"Oh, I see. Congratulations, Manager Su."

“Yeah, that’s right.” Su Cheng nodded. “What’s there to congratulate me on? Look, my position hasn’t changed at all; I’m still a supervisor.”

Do you know what we discussed last night?

"How was it discussed?"

“We all agree that whatever connections you have at headquarters, Manager Su, you’re just getting gilded and honed at Yh.”

Su Cheng: Huh?

That's true.

"So you spent the rest of your 7 days off secretly doing something big! Did you not come out and have fun with us in Selamat before you received orders from headquarters to transfer to us?"

Su Cheng did not answer the question directly, but he admitted that he did it during the holidays.

"Then you might be transferred to another company by headquarters soon, or even become the vice president of Yh?"

"I don't know..."

Su Cheng was also wondering what the old man would do next.

Xing Yuyuan seemed to remember something: "By the way, Manager Su... do you know that our CEO Sheng has been transferred?"

"Hmm...I don't know, what's wrong?"

"President Sheng left me his car keys and told me to help him with maintenance once a day."

Ok?
"Wait."

"Are you dating Sheng-ge?"
