Chapter 191 Tengda Spirit

November 19th, Saturday.

The supervisor-trainee meeting.

Although the supervisor-trainee meetings were still being held twice a month, for Pei Qian, they weren't particularly meaningful, offering little useful information.

This was because the current settlement cycle was only in its midpoint. Many projects were still being developed according to plan, with no particularly dangerous synergistic effects or signs of profitability.

Without such intelligence, the supervisor-trainee intelligence-gathering organization naturally couldn't gather much.

However, adhering to the principle of prevention first, the supervisor-trainee meetings were still held and reported as usual. Pei Qian listened attentively throughout, afraid of missing any important information.

Today's supervisor-trainee meeting proceeded as usual. The supervisor-trainees from each department reported on their recent work, and Tang Yishu diligently took notes as always.

Most of the information was already known to Pei Qian, so the normal reporting didn't have much noteworthy content.

He would have to wait until the end of next month or the month after, when the settlement was approaching and various products were launched, to be particularly vigilant.

Soon, the regular agenda of the supervisor-trainee meeting was completed.

Tang Yishu looked at Pei Qian, signaling whether they could adjourn as usual if there was nothing else.

Pei Qian pondered for a moment and asked, "Everyone, what is your understanding of the Tengda Spirit?"

Yesterday's Tengda Spirit test made Pei Qian feel a potential threat.

If the latest batch of employees' understanding of the Tengda Spirit had already completely deviated, then the older employees who influenced them must have an even more severe deviation!

However, Pei Qian wasn't yet clear on how severe this deviation was, so he needed to conduct a preliminary investigation.

Starting with these supervisor-trainees was a good choice.

Because the supervisor-trainees were the most tight-lipped, they wouldn't say much or ask much. Even if Pei Qian asked some questions, they wouldn't spread them between departments, avoiding unnecessary alarm.

The supervisor-trainees looked at each other, a little confused about Pei Qian's intention.

However, everyone still answered honestly according to their own understanding.

"Senior, my understanding of the Tengda Spirit is saving time, working efficiently, and using entertainment, rest, and relaxation to improve work efficiency and achieve a win-win situation for both individuals and the company."

"I think the Tengda Spirit is fighting for one's own career, rather than simply completing assigned tasks with the mindset of an employee."

"I think it's about making products and content with heart, doing one's duty to the extreme, and moving users with sincerity."

As all the supervisor-trainees spoke in turn, Pei Qian's expression became more and more serious.

Not a single supervisor-trainee said that the Tengda Spirit was about slacking off?

This… the problem was huge!

The misunderstanding of the Tengda Spirit had already spread among the supervisor-trainee group, which meant that the high-level, middle-level, and lower-level employees in each department were definitely not spared!

Pei Qian's expression instantly became serious.

He was a little puzzled, though. The content that these supervisor-trainees each said seemed to be the same thing, but their ways of expressing it were different.

Pei Qian asked, "Is there a more unified, more general statement?"

The supervisor-trainees looked at each other and shook their heads.

"No."

"Isn't the core of the Tengda Spirit in comprehension? How can there be a unified standard?"

"That's right, Senior, isn't this your consistent attitude?"

The corner of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly.

What the hell was his consistent attitude? When had he ever had an attitude!

But the question was, since these supervisor-trainees all said that there was no unified standard and mainly relied on their own comprehension, why did their understanding all deviate so perfectly in the wrong direction?

This made Pei Qian feel very puzzled. The entire company's interpretation of the Tengda Spirit was clearly problematic, but he couldn't grasp it at all!

It was hidden deep enough.

Pei Qian considered that he couldn't dig any further from the supervisor-trainees and new employees. He definitely wouldn't be able to find anything out.

Because the people who could really determine the atmosphere of a department and the entire department's understanding of the Tengda Spirit were definitely not the lower-level employees, but the high-level leaders and middle-level managers.

The formation of a department's atmosphere was definitely top-down. The supervisor-trainees' understanding of the Tengda Spirit in each department had seriously deviated, veering towards the workaholic direction. This meant that there was definitely a big problem with the leaders of each department!

If he wanted to reverse this situation, he would definitely have to start with these leaders.

Pei Qian looked at the date and suddenly had an idea.

Tomorrow was the 20th, which was the day for the monthly reservation at the nameless restaurant.

Pei Qian decided to use this dinner to fish!

He would ask all the department heads to attend and slightly "examine" their understanding of the Tengda Spirit.

If he could find the culprit among these leaders, then Pei Qian wouldn't mind arranging things clearly for him, whether it was transferring him to Thriller Hostel or kicking him out to be responsible for a marginal business, in short, he couldn't let him continue to harm the Tengda atmosphere!

If the culprit was hidden deep and couldn't be found, then he would find a way to reverse the current trend and guide everyone's interpretation of the Tengda Spirit back to the right path.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian said, "Okay, that's all for today. Meeting adjourned!"

"Oh, right, Xiao Tang, stay for a moment."

The other supervisor-trainees left one after another, leaving only Tang Yishu.

"Senior, is there anything else?" Tang Yishu asked.

Pei Qian smiled and said, "It's nothing special, I just want to give you a new task."

Although Pei Qian planned to fish tomorrow and thoroughly investigate the internal spies among the department heads who distorted the Tengda Spirit, he was also very self-aware and prepared himself mentally for not finding anything out.

After all, the Tengda Spirit had been distorted for so long, and Pei Qian had only noticed it now. This meant that this internal spy seemed to be very good at hiding himself.

In this case, if Pei Qian investigated in a high-profile manner, it would definitely cause alarm and vigilance, and it might not have a good effect.

Under such circumstances, Xiao Tang's identity as a cat owner could play a good role in disguise!

Pei Qian continued, "I want you to investigate the Tengda Spirit in the company. I found that many employees always like to talk about the Tengda Spirit, but everyone's interpretation of the Tengda Spirit is different."

"I hope you can investigate where everyone's interpretation of the Tengda Spirit comes from, in addition to the part that they comprehend themselves? What are they influenced by? If anyone has played a role in objectively accelerating the spread of the Tengda Spirit, where is this communication node?"

"In short, secretly observe all information related to the Tengda Spirit, especially pay attention to the source."

Tang Yishu blinked, her face full of confusion: "Senior, isn't the source, the source with you?"

Pei Qian: "..."

"Cough, I mean, besides me, are there any second or third sources?"

Tang Yishu nodded: "Ah, okay Senior, I understand. But, I'm relatively stupid, I might not be able to find anything out..."

Pei Qian waved his hand: "It's okay, this is a long-term task, you just need to pay a little attention and investigate slowly, tell me as soon as you find anything."

Tang Yishu: "Okay, okay."

…

…

November 20th, Sunday.

Nameless Restaurant.

The heads of various departments of Tengda Group arrived one after another, hugging and greeting each other enthusiastically, creating a harmonious scene.

"Long time no see! Is your recent project going smoothly?"

"It's okay, it's all thanks to President Pei's wise leadership."

"Hey, I was just about to tell you, I have a small matter that needs your cooperation."

"Easy to say, definitely cooperate! Feel free to ask for anything!"

The department heads walked into the nameless restaurant with laughter and chatter, and took their seats.

It had been a while since the last similar gathering of all department heads.

Although the nameless restaurant had a private event on the 20th of every month, President Pei also used it for various receptions, such as receiving bosses from other companies, treating departments that had made outstanding contributions as a reward, etc. There were few opportunities to give it to the department heads for gatherings.

Although the heads of various departments usually had contact with each other, they were all busy with their work, and there were not many opportunities to eat together like this.

There was no KPI competition between departments, and there was not much work pressure. Most of the heads knew each other and were good friends, so the atmosphere on the scene was very harmonious.

There were also a few heads who did not come, such as Qiu Hong. He was currently still in the Imperial Capital busy preparing for the incubation base of the "Desperate Plan".

Some new department heads had little contact with other heads, such as Liang Qingfan, and took this opportunity to get to know other department heads.

Soon, President Pei also arrived, and everyone took their seats and chatted while eating.

While eating, Pei Qian looked at the more than twenty department heads in front of him, feeling a little melancholy for no reason.

How could Tengda have developed so many departments for no reason!

Moreover, these were all top-ranked departments within Tengda Group, and the invested companies were not included. There were already so many people.

He originally just wanted to lose money, but he never expected that in order to lose money, he would open new departments, and the more departments he opened, the further the goal of losing money was from him.

It was really melancholy!

After eating for a while, Pei Qian felt that the time was almost right.

So, he gently knocked on the table, signaling everyone to be quiet.

When the heads saw that President Pei was about to speak, they immediately stopped discussing, their expressions serious, and they looked over in unison.

Everyone's face was full of expectation.
