Chapter 173: Power Has Boundaries

In the outer park of the engineering department in the middle of the night, the dreary rain was falling in August, and the inky dark clouds covered all the nebulae, and in the darkness, the headlights of the cars washed by the rain pillars looked a little dazzling. Xu Le looked at the official under the umbrella, his eyes narrowed, and he knew that the matter of helping the engineering department had finally been leaked, but he was a little puzzled, whether the other party wanted to deal with him or snatch the fruit again, but no matter which one it was, it was not the turn of the big man under the umbrella to come to Hong Kong in person.

Guoke Mobile is a technology-first federal mega-corporation, and under the supervision of the board of directors, it is the engineers and technicians who really make up the backbone of this company. Xu Le is also one of the engineers and technicians, but he is only a small third-level technical supervisor, and the official under the umbrella is the chief technical adviser of Guoke Mobile Company.

The Chief Technical Advisor automatically becomes a technical independent director of the Board of Directors of Guoke, and with Guoke's status in the Federation, any member of the Board of Directors has great power and status.

After the director of Fruit Shell Technology under the umbrella finished what he had just said, he replied to silence, waiting for his answer through the glasses. At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, stretching over the black umbrella above his head, splashing the sporadic water onto the lenses, but the big man didn't care about wiping it, just looked at Xu Le, wondering if this important young man would resist. /

The guards of the White Water Company in black rainproof combat uniforms were standing all around, and Xu Leyan's mercenaries or special soldiers transferred by the military for internship were all around, even if they had confidence in themselves and Magnolia. But he didn't think of rebelling either, for the black-clad guards clutched their spears tightly in their hands.

At this moment, an umbrella came to the top of Xu Le's head, covering the rain falling from the sky. Xu Le looked back and saw Secretary Bai standing behind him with his head down. I don't know when, this person turned from an umbrella like a trick.

Rainy nights, dark and wet. The industrial park is silent, and only the areas illuminated by the headlights of cars are still facing off. The difference in numbers between the two sides was so great that the confrontation looked like it was about to end, but the umbrella appeared. Only the independent director and Xu Le were not in danger of wind and rain, and the atmosphere in the room was subtly changed.

Xu Le looked at things with a sharp and sharp look that was completely inconsistent with his sincere appearance. From being stopped by the checkpoint to the appearance of the independent director. He quickly analyzed the situation and confirmed that the other party probably knew his background. Therefore, we do not dare to use force arbitrarily, but the other party will definitely try everything possible. Isolate yourself from the Ministry of Engineering to ensure that the Federal Academy of Sciences succeeds in the development first. /

He wiped the rain from his face. Staring at the director's glasses, he said, "I don't understand what confidentiality regulations I have violated? I don't need to explain anything, you are a big man, and it is a bit of an honor for me, but I think you should also know that I now have long-term authority in the engineering department." ”

As if to add momentum to Xu Le's rebuttal, Magnolia, who had been holding an umbrella behind him and bowing her head slightly, raised her head and swept around the guards of Baishui Company indifferently, her eyes were indifferent and quiet, but there was a coldness that had been suppressed to the extreme.

The headlights of the car were originally a little hazy by the torrential rain, but at the moment when Magnolia looked up, a lightning bolt suddenly flashed in the sky like ink rain clouds, illuminating the dim world for a moment, and also showing the delicate face in front of everyone's eyes.

After seeing this delicate and quiet face, the queue that had been cold and silent changed somewhat, not in a commotion, but vigilantly, absolutely vigilant.

Because they all recognized this face, this face could only belong to Magnolia, the former combat director of the company's seventh team.

Within the Whitewater Company, this handsome man is not famous, because no one wants to talk about him, and the whitewater combatants who kill people without blinking, mention this big guy who is like a girl but is more ruthless than anyone else, all have some fear from the bottom of their hearts.

The independent director looked at these two people in the rain indifferently, and had no desire to debate with each other, he came in person on today's trip to Hong Kong, mainly to use his position in the company to suppress the backlash of the engineering department.

Although there was a faint uneasiness, those black-clothed combatants still pressed forward, they didn't pay attention to Xu Le, who looked very ordinary, but put most of their attention on the seemingly weak Magnolia, the muzzle of the gun was aimed at his vital point, and his eyes did not leave his wrist, because they all knew very well what kind of terrifying hand-to-hand combat ability this delicate man had, back then in the Bermuda Triangle Star Field, this man even killed seven Bermuda bandit masters with just a knife, although the other party did not have a gun in his hand at this time, he still did not dare to take it lightly。

Magnolia was still holding the umbrella, but she took a step forward and stopped in front of Xu Le, and her left hand quietly reached into her trouser pocket. It was such a simple action, but it made the movements of the guards with guns next to them pause. /

These people can sense the danger from Magnolia's action, so they don't understand why Magnolia, as an employee of the company, still has to protect Xu Le despite the order of the board of directors, which is really not in line with Magnolia's usual style of life. Thinking of this, Xu Le's figure became a little unfathomable in their hearts, obviously this young technical director did not have the slightest surprising aura on him, but it was unimaginable that he could ambush this show knife.

"Drag your feet for a moment. ”

Xu Le knew that the current situation was very troublesome, and if he was arrested, with the other party's strong strength in the Federation, he would not be able to easily put himself under house arrest a lot

The chief technical director, looking at Xu Le's lips that moved slightly, suddenly smiled and said, "Don't try to resist." Although I don't like to. But I think there are a lot of people who would like to see a misfire happen. ”

Xu Le's palm gently rested on Magnolia's shoulder, stopping the vicious attack he was about to explode.

At this moment, two people hurriedly ran over from the engineering department, and the umbrellas in their hands didn't care to cover the rain at this time, and they shouted angrily at the local combatants of the Whitewater Company on the periphery. I rushed in. The independent director's face was a little gloomy, although he knew that there was absolutely no way to hide tonight's incident from the engineering department, but he didn't expect it. With the cover of dark night and heavy rain, José was able to discover the small movements of the board in such a short time.

Director José was drenched and watched the tension in the field. Taking a deep breath, he calmed down the anger in his heart, turned his head to look at the director, and said in a deep voice: "Xu Le's long-term authority was personally approved by me. What's the problem?"

"No problem. The board of directors looked slightly gloomy and said unceremoniously: "You should know where your approval authority is! Are there any rules for doing things? Do you still have a board of directors in your eyes?"

Guoke is a giant enterprise. There are many departments below, and important sites like jobs naturally have different statuses. If we use the ancient dynasty metaphor, Director José is like a prince. However, the independent technical directors from the board of directors are like Lord Chincha. Unless the engineering department dares to rebel, whether it is in terms of power or qualifications, he has no way to confront the board of directors, so this director will speak in a tone of reprimanding his subordinates, not leaving Jose a trace of face at all, in fact, in this tense state tonight, the internal disputes within the Fruit Shell Company have also begun to come to the forefront.

Zhou Yu raised an umbrella to cover the head of Director Jose, and glanced at Xu Le with concern, Xu Le shook his head and signaled that there was no problem.

After a moment of calm, Director Jose said to the big man: "This is not the research institute, it is the engineering department, according to the charter of the board of directors, I have the qualification to approve the authority, if you have any objections to my qualifications, you can raise it on the board of directors, but don't embarrass our staff." ”

"Xu Le is not a staff member of the engineering department, not in the past, not today, and not in the future. The director said with a calm face: "You are qualified to have approval authority, but don't forget that Xu Le is in contact with the top secret of the Federation, according to the classification level, these approval authority are all in the company's headquarters, I don't remember when the board of directors gave you the authority to make your own decisions." ”

His next sentence directly shattered Jose's idea of wanting to protect Xu Le.

"The emergency meeting of the board of directors has temporarily deprived you of approval authority, and all the new recruits who have been in contact with it in the past two months will be brought back for review, this is the decision of the board of directors, if you object, please keep it yourself. ”

This is a very fatal problem, if the board of directors of Guoke does make such a decision, then Xu Le's access is tantamount to illegal, and the other party can review him for violating the company's regulations, and even send him to court for access to classified federal data.

After saying this, the director no longer paid attention to the silent director Jose, took two steps forward and walked into the headlights of the car, looked at Xu Le and said peacefully: "Come with us, you know that I won't embarrass you, but you need to rest somewhere else during this time." ”

Xu Le shook his head, after the incident of Hushan Road, the big people in the federation knew the relationship between themselves and the Tai family, of course they didn't dare to kill themselves casually, but if they resisted, they could find a suitable reason, if they didn't resist, they could take themselves away, and forcibly delayed the development of the mecha in the engineering department extremely ruthlessly.

He just didn't understand why the other party was an independent director of Guoke Company, but he wanted to damage the interests of the company and stand on the side of those people.

"You're just a director of the husk, and you can't control me. Xu Le took out his ID card from his jacket pocket, handed it to the director, and said, "This is my ID, which is marked with the duplicate authority of the General Assembly Base of the Ministry of National Defense. "Give the military order personally, otherwise no one will try to stop me from entering the engineering department tonight. ”
