After the phone was connected, Zhao Long took the lead and said, "Dongli, why did you take the phone so long? You saw all the messages you sent to you? Is there any movement?"

I opened my mouth and replied, "Not yet."

"Are you sure?" Zhao Long said "but this shouldn't be true. The news has been released for so long, and it's still such a explosive news. Those of them will not ignore it. There will definitely be the next move."

"Brother Long, are they also testing us, thinking that the news is not true enough, and want to wait and see what happened and verify it?"

"It is not ruled out that this possibility is, so wait and see."

"I understand, I will continue to observe. If there is any news, I will report to you immediately!"

After hanging up the phone, I felt relieved. I didn’t know how long this matter could be hidden, and just... I will have an answer today.

The atmosphere in the office today looked particularly calm, but the more this happened, the more it meant that there was something wrong. The morning passed, and the lunch break was almost over soon, and it was time to go to work in the afternoon.

Just now, I was about to get up and go to the bathroom, but someone suddenly called me behind me. I looked back and it was Zhang Qi.

"Manager Zhou, can I talk to you for a while? I have something to come to you."

She called me "Manager Zhou", which really made me stunned for a moment, and then nodded and agreed to her. When we were on our way to the conference room, I noticed that Xu Hao was staring at us all the time, so I had to secretly send a message to Zhao Hu on my phone.

Me: "Brother Hu, go and stare at Xu Hao and then pay attention to check the surveillance of his location. It's now, hurry up."

After sending a message to Zhao Hu, Zhang Qi and I happened to enter the conference room. There were only two of us here. I was very curious about what she would say to me.

"What's wrong?"

"I have something very important to tell you." She paused, her eyes becoming a little dazed, "I'm afraid that if I don't say it, it will be too late."

I didn't say anything, but waited for her to continue speaking. After a while, Zhang Qi continued to speak.

"Brother Zhou, I am actually one of the 'insiders' you are looking for, but I didn't do anything out of the way. The last time I stayed at the company to work overtime, I went to the bathroom, but I forgot to lock the computer screen. Manager Xu happened to use his mobile phone to secretly take pictures of the marketing plan on my computer screen. I saw this. Manager Xu gave me a sum of money, a total of 8,000 yuan, saying it was a hush fee. I... accepted it."

Speaking of this, Zhang Qi couldn't help but shed tears and kept muttering: "I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, I'm angry, Brother Zhou, because I was really short of money at that time, the situation was urgent, my brother was sick, and now he lives in the hospital in City A. The salary has not been paid yet, and my money has been used up, so I accepted the money he gave."

She sobbed and continued: "Yesterday, he found me again yesterday. He wanted me to continue to follow them and make clichés from you so that he could know the next development plan of the company's Yuzun brand, especially the matter of agreeing with the pre-sale of Yuzun's new product. I think... I can't be stupid anymore, so..."

I took her words: "So you found me to confess all this." I paused for a moment and continued: "Zhang Qi, it would be great if you reported what you saw him secretly photographing your plan. If you don't believe others, you can believe me, because it's 8,000 yuan... Do you know how much the company lost when the Yuzun brand pre-sale activity was suspended this time and what Yuzun, a subsidiary of the competitor Changsheng Wine Industry, did to us?"

"I, I know... it's me bad, Brother Zhou..." Her eyes turned red, and she took out an envelope and handed it to me, "This is the 8,000 yuan given to me by Xu Hao. I only used 5,000 yuan from it, and all of them were made up for it later."

I was silent for a moment and took the envelope she handed me with 8,000 yuan. Zhang Qi said sadly: "If something happens, I will definitely not continue to stay in the company anymore. After today's work, I will resign. The resignation letter has been sent to your email address just now. The attachment inside is the work content I need to hand over. Brother Zhou, you also know my work progress."

Actually, I already knew all of what she said, and I didn’t expose it on the spot, let alone show her the video. It was at this time that Zhao Hu replied to my message.

Zhao Hu: "The insider caught it, it was Xu Hao. He just wanted to send a message to the competitor company with his mobile phone, but I caught it on the spot."

After reading the text message, I put my phone back in my pocket, then nodded slowly to Zhang Qi, and asked, "Then... what are your plans next? And... how is your brother's situation?"

I don't know whether Xu Hao broke up Zhang Qi's incident, but it was actually a matter of time before she could be known, so it was inevitable that she would leave the company. It was nothing. In the near future, I would be the one who left the company myself.

"I haven't thought about it yet, but in the short term, I must have been taking care of my brother in the hospital. I will consider the work matters later. He is still lying on the bed of the People's Hospital of A City. I can't take care of that much. I just hope he can be safe. He has just entered his freshman year..."

Zhang Qi has long become a "tearing person". After saying this, she sniffed and then walked towards the door of the conference room. I remained silent until she was about to open the door and leave, and suddenly came to her senses and looked at me.

"Dongli, will you hate me?"

I adjusted my standing posture and looked at her and responded with a smile, "I don't hate you, Zhang Qi, we are still friends."

"Thanks."

After Zhang Qi finished speaking, she left the conference room. I did not try to keep her in the company. Everyone has their own choices. I can't interfere and have no right to intervene.

...

The matter was over, and the company's insiders were also found out. It turned out that Xu Hao was not the only one who existed in the company, but he was the most important one. This was no longer a simple dismissal. It involved leaking commercial secrets and making profits from it. The company had already called the police. What was waiting for Xu Hao next was a prison disaster.

When Xu Hao was handcuffed and ready to be taken away, I stood at the door of the company. He stopped with an extremely complicated expression, but when he looked at me, his eyes were still filled with contempt and unwillingness.

"Zhou Dongli, I lost. Since you entered the company, our brothers in the offline sales department almost lost their performance and output. All the senior management and shareholders of the company are all aimed at you. Is it because you are too strong in your relationship account, or is it because I lost because I did not keep up with the pace of the development of the times?"

I looked at Xu Hao and said calmly: "I have never targeted you, and I am not a relative. Competition between departments is common, and your ability is not lost. What you lose is your own 'heart', because you are too greedy, the net of heaven is vast and not leaked. The benefits given by the competitive company make you not control yourself. If you want others, don't do it unless you do it."

At this moment, Xu Hao's eyes were dull. He couldn't speak for a long time, so he took him away. Everything was revealed, but for me, the matter was not over.
