Chapter 3 — At the end of the week when I was fired, I made the 3.9 billion contract into waste paper

I don't listen. Messages are also continuously sent.

"General Shen, where have you been?"

"The president is personally looking for you."

"Mr. Shen, the reward table has been completed."

"Did you go to the wrong hotel?"

I looked at the screen, not moving at all. Ten minutes past two. Vien Giai called again. I picked up the phone.

"General Shen, save my life!"

The other side is extremely noisy.

"President Trieu just came on stage and said he wanted to invite you to speak."

"Vice President Cao's face is pale."

"Now everyone is looking for you."

"I already said it."

"I'm not going."

"President Trieu didn't know you were fired!"

I laughed.

"So now he knows."

There was a caller's voice on the other end of the line:

"Vien Giai, can I call yet?"

Vien Giai replied:

"Okay."

Immediately afterwards, Trieu Duc Xuong's voice intervened.

"Nhuoc Ninh, where are you?"

"Today is such an important day, how could you not come?"

"President Zhao, I am no longer a member of Hua Yue."

"Who said that?"

"This morning Do Hang informed me that the company decided to terminate the labor relationship."

Trieu Duc Xuong's side immediately became silent. A few seconds later, he tried to suppress his anger and asked:

"Who told him to announce?"

"Go ask Cao Bang yourself."

"Nhuoc Ninh, there must be a misunderstanding about this."

"Misunderstanding should not come up in a firing phone call."

"You go to the hotel first."

"Bonus, position, everything I will tell you directly."

"I'm not going."

Trieu Duc Xuong is really impatient.

"If you don't come, the customer representative will come later."

"You are the main appraiser for this project. They must meet you."

"Then let Vice President Cao meet."

"Nhuoc Ninh!"

"Chairman Zhao."

"When you fired me, you didn't ask me if it was convenient or not."

"You need me now, no need to ask if I want to come or not."

I hung up. Five minutes later. Do Hang called. I don't listen. Cao Bang called. As soon as he opened his mouth, he shouted:

"Tham Nhuoc Ninh, have you caused enough trouble?"

"Vice President Cao."

"I'm at home."

"Isn't not going to the hall to smash and destroy considered rioting?"

"Do you think blocking the president can force the company to bow?"

"I just don't want to be bothered."

"You immediately come to the hotel for me."

"Based on what?"

"Based on the fact that this project is in charge of you!"

I smiled faintly.

"Didn't you just say this morning that Hoa Nhac is still operating normally without anyone?"

Cao Bang gritted his teeth at every word.

"I'm warning you."

"Don't make things unsightly."

"Who is the person who makes everything unsightly?"

"Tham Nhuoc Ninh."

"Do you still want to continue working in the financial world in Giang Thanh?"

I was silent for two seconds.

"Cao Bang."

"I recorded your last sentence."

The other end of the line immediately became quiet. I continue:

"Dismissal is normal, I accept."

"Threatening to kill me, I do not accept."

"Don't scare me."

"I don't have time to scare you today."

I hung up. The phone screen went black again. I placed it face down on the tea table. Two thirty minutes. Vien Giai sent a recording. I opened it. The hall was extremely chaotic. Trieu Duc Xuong is shouting loudly:

"Where is Do Hang? Tell him to come up here!"

Do Hang quickly explained:

"President Zhao, I followed Vice President Cao's email."

Cao Bang immediately shouted:

"You said bad!"

"I just told you to prepare a plan!"

Someone lowered their voice and said:

"The customer representative is here."

I turned off the recording. Three minutes later. A strange number called. I picked up the phone.

"Miss Tham, I am Phuong Minh Vien of Minh Khai Capital."

I immediately sat up straight.

"Hello, Mr. Phuong."

"I'm staying at Cam Thuy hotel."

"Hua Nhac's people said you had an emergency."

"I was fired by Hoa Nhac."

Phuong Minh Vien was silent for a moment.

"Who fired?"

"Cao Peng proposed."

"Personnel announcement."

"Trieu Duc Xuong said he didn't know."

Phuong Minh Vien burst out laughing.

"This company is really interesting."

"If the project needs to be handed over, I can coordinate according to the correct process."

"No need."

He said:

"Minh Khai's conditions were very clear from the beginning."

"The person who confirms the final risk control must be you."

"If you are not present, I will not sign this confirmation today."

"General Phuong, this is a cooperation between Minh Khai and Hoa Nhac."

"We invest money."

"Not investing in their cocktail tables."

I said nothing. Phuong Minh Vien spoke again:

"If you agree, I'd like to buy you a cup of tea in half an hour."

"It's not because of Hoa Nhac."

"But because of you."

"What do you mean?"

"Minh Khai is establishing a new investment fund."

"We lack someone who dares to say 'no'."

I haven't been able to answer yet. The doorbell rang.
