At Upwind Logistics’ headquarters, Lu Mingliang was arranging various tasks while keeping an eye on the news online and keeping an eye on Shengyun Corporation’s movements.

Upwind Logistics had many recruitment slots for Tengda’s special recruitment examinations this time.

Before this, Lu Mingliang would have participated in the interview as the person-in-charge of the department. However, as Tengda developed too quickly in recent years, the number of people in the various departments increased. There were more and more things to deal with normally. Thus, the people

in charge no longer participated in the interview. Instead, they handed this task to the more capable hands.

The people in charge could not do everything themselves. The structure of the entire department had to be updated.

‘Tengda’s various departments were developing much faster than other companies. Naturally, this update was faster.

Of course, even though Lu Mingliang was not directly in charge of recruitment, he still had to ask. He had to try his best to attract the talents that Upwind Logistics really needed for this special recruitment exam.

After refreshing the webpage once again, Lu Mingliang suddenly perked up.

There it was!

Anew message about Shengyun Express appeared silently on the internet. Then, it gained a good popularity in a short period of time.

‘The CEO of Shengyun Corporation, Nie Yunsheng, personally went to the express deliveryman’s home to express his condolences and waive all punishments for the express deliveryman.

On top of that, Shengyun Express also released a statement saying that it would firmly protect the legal rights and benefits of the express deliverymen and thank netizens for their care and help.

In particular, there was a video in the middle that was shot at the express deliveryman’s home. In the video, Nie Yunsheng persuaded the express deliveryman earnestly.

“You might only be an ordinary express deliveryman, but you are also a member of Shengyun Corporation. We are all brothers! It’s not scary to have a poor family. You rely on your own hands and work hard to find a better life for yourself. Labor is the most glorious! This matter has made you suffer. This

is because the company did not do well. We will work hard to compensate you. However, you have to remember that you don’t have to abandon your pride to beg for mercy. It’s your mistake. You have to be brave enough to take responsibility. If it’s not your own mistake, you have to be reasonable. You

have to be fair and honest!”

Nie Yunsheng’s words were powerful and resonant.

The express deliveryman lived in an ordinary rental house. The environment was tough, but Nie Yunsheng did not care at all. He held the express deliveryman’s hand with both hands and comforted him while saying these heartwarming words. It was really moving.

The delivery man was moved and even a little overwhelmed.

The big boss of Shengyun Corporation had come to express his condolences personally, waived the punishment, and supported him... This made the delivery man, who had been disheartened by the severe punishment, seem to see the light.

Of course, he was very grateful.

Soon, this video became popular with the keywords # Shengyun Express Delivery Man knelt down #. It even completely overshadowed the topic of # Shengyun Express Delivery Man!

The direction of the comments section had also changed drastically.

“F*ck, he forced the delivery man to kneel just for a box of apples? Is this something a human can do?”

“Are they stupid, bad, or simple-minded? That’s enough. Must they force people to die?”

“The complainer also said that he did not want to be moralized? Why don’t you kowtow to the express delivery man and kidnap him as well?”

“You’re f*cking petty. It was originally a box of apples, but you lost one and bought another box of free apples for you. You’re still going to complain? Am I going to have to compensate you with an entire orchard?”

“Look at how awesome this person is just for a box of mangos. Is he only going to let it go after he drives the delivery guy to death?”

“Shengyun Corporation did well! It would be chilling to punish the delivery man for such things. They might be protecting their children but they are good at protecting them! I hope that they can be stronger and help the delivery man seek justice!”

“To be honest, the delivery men are very innocent in this matter. There have been too many express delivery men recently. I saw the express delivery cabinet downstairs. Some express delivery men are still recording their deliveries at 11 PM. It’s really too tiring, Everyone, please understand.”

“That’s right. To be honest, Shengyun Express is not expensive. The delivery fee alone might only be two to three yuan or even lower. The price is so cheap. They even requested for it. Do they really think that they can be God just because they spent two yuan on delivery fees? They are still pretending to be

innocent after benefitting. They are using a made up directive to order people around!”

“Indeed, it’s good for everyone to walk a little more downstairs and take a express delivery to train their bodies.”

“Boss Nie is still responsible! He can take time out of his busy schedule to care about a basic express deliveryman. It’s rare to see such a good boss. I think the recent delay in express delivery is an accident. It’s indeed impossible to solve. Let’s give Boss Nie more time. I believe it can be resolved

appropriately!”

There were voices of understanding.

There might be some comments supporting the complaints but these people were quickly criticized. They said that they were “heartless” and “mean’. It seemed like they were going to criticize these people and the complaints.

At that point, Lu Mingliang could not help but shake his head and sigh.

The same old trick again?

It looked like a huge commotion had turned the situation around, but

Wasn’t this the old trick that Home Corporation had used?

How should he solve this question?

Boss Pei aside, even Young Master Tian on the internet had already demonstrated it.

Shengyun Corporation was doing the same thing as Home Corporation. It was transferring conflicts.

Transfer the conflict between the customers and the company to the customers and the delivery men.

However, compared to Home Corporation’s clumsy performance, Shengyun Corporation had caught a good opportunity this time. It happened that the netizens’ sympathy was stimulated by the poor family of the express delivery man who knelt down to apologize. Thus, the transfer conflict became very

confusing.

What’s more, the image of express delivery men and real estate agents in the netizens’ hearts was very different.

Real estate agents were sales after all. Most netizens did not have a good impression of this profession. That was because many sales would definitely lie, run their mouths off, hide their shortcomings and exaggerate the advantages in order to sell bad products. As time went by, their reputation would be

worse.

However, delivery men were different. They were all diligently delivering parcels. They rarely deceived customers or clashed with customers.

There might be some express delivery men arguing with customers because of the delivery but this was a rare phenomenon after all. Most express delivery men left a positive image to netizens.

Thus, netizens naturally sympathized with the delivery men.

In addition, the express delivery man knelt down, Nie Yunsheng expressed his condolences, and the angry complaints were emotional and even spoke randomly. There were also some fake reviewers adding fuel to the fire. Naturally, public opinion became like this.

He had to admit that Shengyun Corporation’s response strategy was quite crafty.

This matter was indeed a conflict between Upwind Logistics and Shengyun Corporation, but Shengyun Corporation did not target Upwind Logistics.

That was because Upwind Logistics’ reputation was too good. It was impossible to criticize them. Instead, it would easily cause public opinion to rebound.

Shengyun Corporation used this method to divert conflicts. As long as they gained sympathy and cleared themselves up, letting this crisis pass, it would be equivalent to resisting Upwind Logistics’ attack.

The people from Shengyun Corporation were probably feeling very proud now, thinking that Upwind Logistics could not do anything to them.

That was because the news of the new express deliveryman kneeling had nothing to do with Upwind Logistics!

How would Upwind Logistics get involved if there was nothing to do with it?

Coming to stand up for the express deliveryman? That did not make sense because Shengyun Corporation had already comforted them and the express deliveryman was very grateful.

Stand up for the complainers? That was unlikely, right? Netizens were now suppressing the public opinion one-sidedly. They all thought that the complainers were unreasonable. Upwind Logistics could not go against the trend.

Ifhe did not help either side, it would be equivalent to saying it for nothing. He would also leave a bad impression that he was “freeloading on popularity”.

Once Upwind Logistics took part but not many people paid attention, it would be quite embarrassing.

It would be best if he did not get involved in this matter.

However, Lu Mingliang did not think so.

Not getting involved? Why should I not get involved?

Back then, Slow Movement Studio and Sloth Apartments spoke more about morals. It was only after Young Master Tian’s video was released that the tenants were attracted to the Real Estate Agent Simulator and Sloth Apartments.

However, Lu Mingliang was the type to not ask for anything. He did not like to beat around the bush when it came to face slapping. He had to do it himself to feel at ease.

Many people looked honest and obedient, but once such people were angry, the consequences would be very serious.

At the very most, they would fall out and show everyone their underpants.

Then, he would know whose butt was crooked and whose butt was dirty.

At this stage, Tengda would be invincible!

Lu Mingliang called the person-in-charge of Shanghai. “Contact the complainant about the express deliveryman kneeling down. I have something to say to him.”

“Tl book a ticket and make a trip to Shanghai.”

Late night.

Shengyun Corporation’s headquarters was still brightly lit.

This was especially so for the public career department. It was destined to be a restless night.

On the surface, Old Wei’s resignation did not seem to have caused much of a stir. The Vice-President had calmed down after being angry for a few hours. Instead, he was happy that the negative public opinion on the internet had gradually subsided.

Suddenly, he noticed a message. He quickly stood up and reported to Nie Yunsheng’s office.

“Boss Nie, look at this!”

“Previously, the complainer who forced our express deliveryman to his knees because of a box of apples seemed to be unable to take it anymore. He sent a Weibo message saying that he hoped to meet you and the express deliveryman. He was willing to use live-streaming methods to talk. He wanted to

solve the problem and eliminate the impact as much as possible.”

“How should we respond?”

Nie Yunsheng hummed in surprise.

However, he immediately smiled.

Why did this complainer post on Weibo? It was very simple, he was afraid of being scolded!

After the video that Nie Yunfeng sent to express his condolences to the express deliveryman was released, many people went to the Weibo of the complainer to scold him. They scolded him thousands of times. Ordinary people could not withstand this pressure.

How could he not admit defeat?

The so-called meeting and talking was actually to give in. What else could happen apart from apologizing and expressing understanding?

Could he scold the express deliveryman on the spot?

That was a live-stream. If he was really that stubborn, he would definitely face social death.

Nie Yunsheng thought for a moment and said, “Send the message.. I’l go!”
