Liu Kai Xuan's string of actions had completely incapacitated Li Shu Hai.
This scene, however, greatly startled Li De Yao.
"Liu Kai Xuan, you... you trash, how dare you hit my subordinate!"
"I think you don't want to live anymore!"
"Who are you calling trash?" Liu Kai Xuan rubbed his hands, his gaze once again fixed on Li De Yao.
Li De Yao sternly shouted, "I'm talking about you, trash like you..."
"Slap!" Li De Yao thought his status would intimidate Liu Kai Xuan. However, before he could finish speaking, his hand landed squarely on Li De Yao's aged face.
"You've got some nerve. We'll see about this!"
Li De Yao was a cunning and deceitful fellow. He knew that with his 'battle power of five' strength, he certainly couldn't defeat Liu Kai Xuan.
He didn't dare to push further and, after leaving a harsh threat, slunk away.
...
Ten minutes later, when Li De Yao returned to the technical department with a group of security guards, the place was already deserted.
Li Shu Hai found a resignation letter on Liu Kai Xuan's desk.
Liu Kai Xuan wasn't a fool. After such a major incident, he knew he couldn't stay at the Hong Xing Steel Rolling Mill.
Rather than wait for Li De Yao to fire him, it was better to proactively submit his resignation letter and leave on his own terms.
Now, Liu Kai Xuan possessed a senior technician qualification certificate and over two years of frontline work experience.
Although he wasn't old, he could definitely be considered a seasoned senior technician!
Having resigned from the Hong Xing Steel Rolling Mill today, he could find a new job tomorrow.
The crucial point was: resignation was difficult!
Technicians, in any factory, were basically scarce technical talents, with a significant talent gap.
If Liu Kai Xuan wanted to resign from the Hong Xing Steel Rolling Mill, and the mill didn't approve his resignation.
Even if Liu Kai Xuan went to other factories, they wouldn't hire him.
Of course, given Li De Yao's current state, he would definitely approve Liu Kai Xuan's resignation letter.
However, Liu Kai Xuan was the head of the Technical Department.
In essence, he was also a leader, and the importance of the Technical Department was self-evident.
With the authority of a deputy factory director like Li De Yao, he wasn't qualified to dismiss the head of the Technical Department.
Such matters required the signature and approval of the factory director himself.
"No, I do not agree to Comrade Liu Kai Xuan's resignation request!"
Li Shu Hai took Liu Kai Xuan's resignation letter to Yang Zheng, who refused without a second thought.
"Director Yang, why are you still shielding Liu Kai Xuan, this murderer!"
Li Shu Hai immediately became anxious. "This brat is an unfettered rogue!"
"It's one thing that he beat me, but he even dares to hit the deputy factory director. What's the point of keeping such a rogue?"
Yang Zheng said sternly, "I don't want to waste time arguing with you now. I will emphasize only one point!"
"If Li De Yao can find a way to resolve the talent shortage in the Technical Department, then I will give him face and sign this resignation letter!"
"But if Li De Yao is merely acting impulsively and wants me to act recklessly without considering the consequences, then I'm very sorry, I cannot agree!"
"Don't say I'm not giving Li De Yao face!"
"If I let Liu Kai Xuan go now, the production work at Hong Xing Steel Rolling Mill will not be able to continue!"
Li Shu Hai replied with considerable unwillingness, "What are you afraid of? Isn't Liu Da Kui still here?"
"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense with me here!"
Yang Zheng said righteously, "I will keep this resignation letter for now!"
"The approval time for resignation letters is three days!"
"Within these three days, if Li De Yao can bring in a senior technician for me, I will approve it!"
"If Li De Yao cannot bring in a technician of the same caliber, then he should personally come and invite Liu Kai Xuan back for me!"
"But this..." Li Shu Hai's face turned into a bitter gourd.
However, Yang Zheng had already issued his ultimatum. Regardless of whether Li Shu Hai was happy or not, he had to accept reality.
Yang Zheng had been in the position of factory director for many years and was an experienced veteran.
Liu Kai Xuan's actions this time seemed to have offended Li De Yao.
From another perspective, Liu Kai Xuan had also saved Li De Yao.
Not only Li De Yao was saved, but Yang Zheng was also "saved" by Liu Kai Xuan.
Machine tool equipment, after a certain period of use, must be strictly managed according to requirements.
Otherwise, the failure rate of machine tool equipment would significantly increase.
When the failure rate of machine tool equipment exceeds the warning standard line, it would attract attention from higher authorities.
If superiors discovered that the soaring failure rate of machine tool equipment was due to improper maintenance and care by the factory, it would be considered a man-made accident.
Every piece of machine tool equipment was imported from abroad with heavy investment from the state.
The procurement price of a single machine tool started at at least six figures!
The consequences of national assets suffering significant losses due to the negligence and carelessness of enterprise leaders were self-evident!
Liu Da Kui was a good old man, and he dared not speak up even when he discovered problems.
That's right, his actions indeed pleased people like Li De Yao.
As long as no problems occurred, everyone would be happy.
Once a problem erupted, everyone, without exception, would have to go to jail.
The money spent on hiring experts was factory funds, not Yang Zheng's out-of-pocket expenses.
Why would Yang Zheng risk his own head to save this expense?
Therefore, Yang Zheng now appreciated workers like Liu Kai Xuan who dared to speak the truth!
Such people were trustworthy. As for Liu Da Kui, forget it.
...
In the courtyard, a large group of women gathered in the central courtyard, chattering incessantly.
"Did you hear? Liu Kai Xuan was fired!"
"Of course, we heard. The factory loudspeaker even broadcast it, and Deputy Factory Director Li himself made the announcement!"
"They say Liu Kai Xuan beat up Deputy Factory Director Li, and then he was fired!"
"This brat is truly arrogant to the extreme. He just got promoted and his tail is already up in the sky, daring to offend even the factory director!"
"Yes, I think this brat deserves it. He's just too arrogant."
"Now it's great, falling from heaven to hell. Let's see how he acts smug anymore!"
"I don't think so. Although Liu Kai Xuan was fired by the Hong Xing Steel Rolling Mill, he has already obtained his senior technician qualification certificate!"
"As long as he has this thing, finding a new job will be incredibly easy!"
"That's right, there's a shortage of high-caliber technical workers everywhere now!"
"Let's continue watching the show..."
...
Zhao Feiyan's home.
Zhao Tian Hai also conveyed the news of Liu Kai Xuan's dismissal to Zhao Feiyan.
Jiang Ai Ying said, "Old Zhao, Liu Kai Xuan has been dismissed now. Does our Feiyan still want to marry him?"
