On monday morning, more good new were on the company side. Few high profile business partner of Pr0sp3r int group who knew Nicks' reputation made an official statement to welcome the decision. The stock market also showed a positive sentiments, the company stock price was up.

However, there were group lot of people party from all mangement levels, staff even factory works that were not happy with their chairman decisions. Chairman NG knew about it so he asked Nick to come with him on monday. They held a meeting with all directors, managers and team leaders at the headquarter.

"The purpose of today meeting is to introduce your next chairman to all of you" Chairman NG led the meeting. He single Nick eith his eyes to speak.

Nick was dumpstruck. He had to idea what to talk,

"Hello, I am Nick Feng. I am going to be the chairman from next year. I hope you all can help me with my job. I am open for any criticism and guides. my position is not permanent, I'll step down if my performance is not enough. Please feel free to express your self about my work. Thank you"

Chairman NG swet his gaze. Fom their expression , he knew most of them tought nick words just a lips service. He did not take any action, he let Nick to prove him self. He wanted the mangemenf to respect Nick because his ability.

After the meeting, He took him to one of the factory that was not far away from the city. The conglomerate had few factories across the nation. Some of them was located in the different city, today he chose the closest one. The factory emplyees were dumpstruck to see their chairman and the future chairman were there as well as few others directors came . The head of the factory took them around to inspect factory condition. Nick frowned then approached a worker "Why don't you use gloves ?"

"Sorry sir, I don't have it"

"Don't the company provide it ?"

"No sir".

Nick shook his head.

During their inspections, there were many time Nick was out of the group for few minites. He walked here and there, check here and there. Nearky er the ens of their tour, he said to Liam "I think, we need to fix the layout of the factory. this is not save for the worker. We also have to provide them with safety equipment, traning and upgrade this factory. It is to harsh for them to manually move the boxes like that, we need to install conveyor belt".

The head of factory was stunned. They had been requesting for the conveyor belt for long time but it was rejected. Before he could say anything, Planning director sneered.

"It's all safe sir. We rarely have any incident"

Nick just stared at the factory manager, then he asked the supervisor "How many accident do occurs in a week, some one slip, fall down, twist their back, drop the boxes, cut their finger ?"

The supervisor was dumpstruck that he was able to predict accidents happen "Nearly everyday, sir"

"did all the incident reported to high management ?" Nick asked.

"We put it on a report, but" The factory manager hung his head. He really did not want to accuse upper management to hide it.

"I understand" Nick nodded. then he went to ask a guy who was just a normal favtory worker" Do you like to work here ? do you happy ?" he asked.

He waited for few second and he understood that he would not gwt the answere.

"If I were you, I won't stay here long. The warehouse that I worked 22 years ago much better than this but the employees were still unhappy" Nick blurted. The workers could not believe their next chairman said that words.

"Sir, It cost a fortune to do what you suggest before." staff from Finance departmen spoke.

"Yes. But it makes our production more effective and efficient. How many forklift do we have here ?"

"2 sir"

"2 ? kidding me, my parents shop is only one eight of this place has one and you have two ? we need setup a team to review all factories and warehouses"

Nick stared at Liam "You have alot of work to do. this is our first line without them, this business unit is nothing"

Nick turned his body and frowned when he saw the workers use ladder to rich the boxes that were on the highest part.

"Wait ! There is forklift there, why don't you use it ?" Nick asked.

"only one person is allow to drive it. he is away today" The team leader reported.

Nich shook his head "We need HR to provide more training. This is very dangerous, unsafe and waste of time"

He walked to the forflift. It was lucky the key was there. He turned the engine on and drove it.

"How many do you need ?" Nick asked.

"we need 10 pallet to be loaded to the truck. We just did 2 " the supervisor was embrassed.

Nick nodded and moved 8 more pallets and stuck them on the truck nicely.

Less than half an hour, the work completed.

"How long di you take to move 2 pallets manually ?" Nick asked.

"an hour"

Nick stared at the finance people "Do you think it's worth to use forklift or manual ?"

"Forklift"

"So do you still think, upgrade machines is waste of money ?"

they all could not answer him.

Liam patted Nick shoulder "So, you really can operate forklift. can you really drive truck?" He tought his father lied when he told them on few days ago.

"what is a great thing about drivig truck ans operate forklift. My father and my brothers can. Hans and Keinichi are able too" Nick shook his head.

it was nothing wrong, they just did not think that A CEO and founder of famous IT company had that skill.
