After saying a bunch of good things and expressing his stance, he finally managed to deal with Zhuo Hongxing.
In the end, before Tang Zhiyuan could wipe his sweat, his phone rang again. The caller ID showed that it was the Wang family, a family of talismans.
Tang Zhiyuan was really a little flustered this time. The director of the Academic Affairs Office sounded nice, but he only had some weight within the Academic Affairs Office system. Usually, no one would pay attention to him when he went out.
The phone calls he received today were more important than a year's worth of phone calls combined. This wasn't stirring up a hornet's nest, it was like poking the Dragon's pool and The Tiger's Den!
Tang Zhiyuan was dumbfounded when he hung up the phone.
Lin Yi was just a small fry, a mere bodyguard-he didn't have any background to speak of, so why were all these big shots speaking up for him?
It was as if he was sitting on pins and needles, unable to stop.
If it were in the past, not to mention three major phone calls in a row, even if someone just casually called to greet him, he, Tang Zhiyuan, would have to quickly do as he was told. He would even have to rush to the door to explain to the person.
But now, he was already sitting on the Li family's boat. Even if he really wanted to jump off, they would let him!
If his betrayal was seen as a betrayal, he would really have to bear the consequences.
However, if he didn't do as he was told, the three big shots were still waiting for a reply. If he really slapped the faces of the three big shots in a row, he, Tang Zhiyuan, wouldn't have a good ending either. He might even be pushed out by the higher-ups to be an unlucky person and keep things at peace.
After all, they could call him, the Managing Director, or even the Board of Directors. He wouldn't even have a chance to defend himself.
Caught in a dilemma, Tang Zhiyuan was anxiously pacing around the office when another phone call rang.
Tang Zhiyuan was so frightened that his heart almost stopped. He was really a little too sensitive to this phone today. Once it rang, it was definitely not something good.
Tang Zhiyuan's eyelids twitched again when he saw the caller ID. It was his superior, the Managing Director, Wan Xiyan.
"Division Chief, you're looking for me?"
tang zhiyuan quickly picked up the call. even through the phone, the other party could feel his flattery at the moment.
wan xiyan's deep voice sounded a little tired,""that lin yi thing, did you stop it?"
as expected, it was this matter again!
tang zhiyuan's heart sank and he quickly explained,""they called you too? chief, you were the one who gave the nod. those few people have a lot of face, but no matter how big they are, they can't be bigger than the li family's face. we can't just leave the li family hanging just because of a few words from them, right?"
no matter what, the li family had promised him tangible benefits. no matter how great the pressure was, if he were to go down the drain just like that, he would be in pain for the rest of his life.
besides, as long as he could hold them off, most of the pressure would still be on the dean. even if they wanted to find trouble, it would mainly be with his immediate superior. how could it have anything to do with a small office director under him?
"Who's calling me? Which few?"
Wan Xiyan was stunned.
"It's President Shen from the heavenly express flying shuttle, President Zhuo Hongxing from zhuoyue media, and the talisman patrician family, the Wang family. Didn't they call you?"Tang Zhiyuan asked curiously.
"Even they came out to speak? Looks like we've really underestimated this Lin Yi-he's got quite the background. "
Wan Xiyan had a headache.
Lin Yi's case wasn't handled by the Managing Director himself, but he'd at least given the nod. He'd gotten the biggest share of the benefits from house li, too, and he'd be the one to suffer the most if things were to get right.
Tang Zhiyuan quickly advised,"director, things have already come to this. Even if we change him, it won't do us any good. Instead, we'll offend the Li family. It's not worth it!" In this subordinate's opinion, it's better to persist to the end. After all, this is our Academy's internal affairs. At most, they'll just say a few words, not make a big fuss. "
Upon hearing this, Wan Xiyan fell into deep thought and did not say anything.
Tang Zhiyuan continued to strike while the iron was hot,"from what I can see, the reason why they came out was because of the younger generation's instigation. The elders only came out to protect the face of the younger generation. They don't really care much about that Lin Yi. It's just a formality. As long as we explain it properly after the incident, it won't affect our relationship in any way."
All in all, since he had already boarded the Li family's ship, he could only walk this path to the end, and there was no room for turning back.
Seeing that Wan Xiyan still did not speak, Tang Zhiyuan gritted his teeth and added,""Director, if you want to go higher, you'll need house Li's support. There's no need to make things difficult for Lin Yi, it's not worth it."
"Ha, if only the three families you mentioned called me, I'll be the bad guy. But the problem is, it's not them who called me."
Wan Xiyan smiled wryly.
How could he not understand what Tang Zhiyuan was saying? to do things, one had to choose a side. If there was only the Shen family, the Zhuo family, and even the talisman patrician family, the Wang family, on the other side, even as the dignified Managing Director, he would not be afraid of them.
The problem was that there were more than three guilds on the other side.
Tang Zhiyuan was stunned."In terms of power, these three families are equivalent to Half the Sky apart from the Li family. Who else can it be?" It can't be that the Dean personally came to see you, right?"
"Not the director, but almost."
Wan Xiyan said half-heartedly, then immediately ordered,""No matter what, Lin Yi's incident ends here. Don't let anyone mess with the new student evaluation again. I don't dare to take the blame for this, and I can 't."
Then, he hung up the phone without giving Tang Zhiyuan a chance to speak.
Tang Zhiyuan fell into a daze when he heard the busy tone from the phone.
he had promised to be a director of the li group, and it wasn't even a matter of whether he wanted it or not. he had just bragged about it, and now he was going back on his word. he was simply trying to make things difficult for the li family!
facing a higher-up like the managing director, the other party might still have to show some respect. however, to a small fry like him, he could do whatever he wanted to him. with li muyang's vicious heart, how could he let him go?
however, this was an order from his immediate superior. how could he, a small office director, disobey the order?
tang zhiyuan's hair had turned white from worry, but lin yi, who was involved in the incident, had no idea at all. he had no idea that a group of big shots were pressuring the dean's office for him, nor did he know that the lawsuit was already on the dean's head.
lin yi headed straight for the logistics department after leaving the administration office.
as the name suggested, the school's logistics department was responsible for providing all logistics, from medicinal pills to talismans. all kinds of things that couldn't be seen in the market were available. there was only something that one couldn't think of, but nothing that couldn't be found here.
