Chapter 112 - 96: Chen Mo Is Too Practiced at Adding MoneyChapter 112: Chapter 96: Chen Mo Is Too Practiced at Adding Money
"Please, come in."
After shaking hands, Chen Mo invited him inside.
"Thank you."
After thanking him, the three of them walked into Chen Mo’s home.
"Have a seat."
Chen Mo gestured with his hand.
They all sat down on the sofa.
"Mr. Chen, I apologize. Due to the personal actions of our employee, you’ve suffered a significant loss and had a terrible experience with our logistics service."
"I’ve just been informed that the employee involved has been arrested. Our company has zero tolerance for this kind of behavior, and we’ve already ordered the local station to terminate his employment."
President Zhou started with an apology, stating that the employee had already been fired.
Normally, something like this wouldn’t require someone of his rank to get involved.
However, he happened to be in Modu on a business trip, meeting with investment firms and law offices about the company’s IPO.
That’s why the CEO had entrusted him with making this visit personally.
The CEO had specifically instructed him to minimize the impact of this incident.
Above all, it couldn’t be allowed to affect the IPO.
He knew that going public was the company’s top priority right now, so he had agreed without hesitation.
Otherwise, he never would have come to apologize in person.
Hearing this, Chen Mo couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.
’They’re cutting ties so quickly.’
’Right off the bat, it’s "the personal actions of an employee," and "the employee has been fired."’
’He’s trying to wash the company’s hands of this and push all the blame onto that one employee.’
Although, it really was that one employee’s fault.
But some things weren’t that simple.
The personal actions of an employee can often reflect on the entire company.
There were countless cases like this.
Plenty of cases where an individual employee did something wrong, and the entire company ended up suffering for it.
Within a company, everyone is an individual.
But to outsiders, every individual represents the company as a whole.
Often, when an employee gets into trouble, the company has to step up and take responsibility.
So, it wasn’t as if a lightning-fast dissociation could completely absolve them of all responsibility and impact.
"You’ve certainly caused me considerable losses. I’m very disappointed in Shuntong."
Chen Mo continued, his face a mask of disappointment.
"Mr. Chen, I understand how you feel, but it was just the personal actions of an employee."
President Zhou’s brows furrowed slightly as he emphasized the point again.
"I don’t care about that. All I know is that I placed my order with Shuntong."
Chen Mo was completely unmoved by President Zhou’s words.
No matter what the man said, the shipping label on his package had the words "Shuntong Express" written on it.
Seeing that Chen Mo was unfazed, President Zhou realized he wasn’t going to be easy to deal with.
Then again, he hadn’t expected to resolve this without spending a dime. That was just a probe.
"Of course, I understand. That’s why I came here personally to apologize and offer you a compensation plan."
"First, we will refund all your shipping and insurance fees, and we will also provide full compensation for your lost valuables."
"Additionally, for the terrible experience you’ve had, we will offer you 2 million yuan as compensation for emotional distress. We hope this will put the matter to rest."
President Zhou laid out his compensation plan and looked at Chen Mo. "What do you think, Mr. Chen?"
He thought Chen Mo would surely be satisfied with 2 million yuan in hush money.
For an ordinary person, even one earning 100,000 yuan a year, it would take 20 years of saving every penny to amass 2 million.
"I don’t need a refund for shipping and insurance. I bought insurance, so full compensation for my losses is what you’re already obligated to provide."
Chen Mo shook his head, rejecting the offer to refund the fees. They were clearly trying to trick him, treating him like an idiot.
’How much are the shipping and insurance fees, anyway?’
’I bought insurance, so they were already supposed to compensate me for the full loss.’
’Using the insurance *I* paid for to compensate for *my* loss?’
’Is this how this guy Zhou became a Vice President?’
’He’s far too calculating.’
"Besides, this incident was too egregious. It didn’t just cause me financial loss; it also made me furious."
"I’m definitely going to post this online so everyone knows that Shuntong Express swaps out its customers’ valuables. I’ll make sure people know to steer clear."
Looking furious, Chen Mo stated his intention to post the incident online for everyone to see.
This statement was also his way of rejecting their 2-million-yuan offer of hush money.
To him, trying to buy his silence for a mere 2 million was an insult.
They really weren’t taking him seriously at all.
President Zhou was taken aback.
He hadn’t expected Chen Mo to reject the offer without a second thought.
And he was still insisting on posting about it online.
’Could it be that he looks down on 2 million yuan?’
His eyes flickered. He realized he might have underestimated Chen Mo’s standing.
"Perhaps I don’t fully grasp the situation. How about this."
President Zhou pretended to think for a moment before looking back at Chen Mo.
"We will refund your shipping and insurance. We will also provide full compensation not only for the items you lost but for the items that weren’t lost as well. That comes out to a direct compensation of 300,000 yuan."
"If your lost items are recovered later, they will also belong to you."
"And considering what a terrible experience this has been for you, we are willing to offer 3 million yuan as compensation for emotional distress."
President Zhou stared intently at Chen Mo as he laid out the revised compensation plan.
After speaking, he watched Chen Mo’s expression closely, trying to gauge his reaction to the new offer.
Hearing this compensation plan, Chen Mo’s expression didn’t change in the slightest.
300,000 yuan for the loss, and 3 million in hush money.
A total of 3.3 million.
