Chapter 497: #497 - Malicious competition? It's obviously because you are too narrow-minded!

On the internet,

Several anonymous short essays were being wildly circulated.

These short essays were unsigned,

But the criticisms they contained were quite sharp.

“Fair competition within the business world is understandable. To forge a new path, all industries are breaking with convention. However, malicious disruption of the rules in commercial competition is unacceptable.”

“It's like, you can say your flowers are beautiful, but you can't say someone else's flowers don't smell good. This is a principle any normal person understands, yet some people repeatedly challenge the bottom line of others.”

“Take the current job recruitment at a certain nursing home, for example. They not only advertise on their official website but also promote themselves extensively through personal live streams, suppressing other nursing homes with various egregious behaviors.”

“We express our disdain for Jiang's behavior and hope that people of vision from all walks of life will resist it. Only through our joint efforts can we create a clean business environment.”

The short essays didn't specifically name Sunset Red Nursing Home,

Nor did they mention Jiang Yuan's name.

But when 'a certain nursing home' and 'Jiang' were mentioned,

Everyone knew what they were referring to.

The netizens sneered at the short essays that appeared online.

They even openly discussed them in Jiang Yuan's live stream.

Live stream comments:

「Hahaha, I knew someone would get antsy as soon as Sunset Red Nursing Home made a move. Now there are already short essays online denouncing Jiang Yuan.」

「Those people are really guilty. I don't know what they're thinking. What does their employee recruitment have to do with them? It's like the emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is.」

「Some people are just like that. They never think about plugging the gaps in their own business, always focusing on petty schemes. So their entrepreneurial path is destined to be short-lived.」

「Are you guys talking about those black-hearted nursing home owners? You've seen the short essays. They just can't stand seeing others doing well.」

「Exactly! Instead of that, they should improve the treatment of their employees. Then the employees wouldn't quit, right? They don't make changes, but they're worried about employees leaving. It's ridiculous.」

「They don't even think about it. If the benefits are good and the work schedule is regular, who would be willing to leave a place they've worked for several years? If employees want to quit, the boss must be the problem.」

「Although nothing is absolute, seeing so many nursing home employees saying they want to go to Sunset Red Nursing Home proves one thing: Sunset Red Nursing Home definitely has something they're yearning for.」

「…」

In the live stream,

Comments flowed one after another.

The netizens watching the live stream,

Were now also discussing the issue of nursing home employees quitting.

Netizens were not unfamiliar with the desire of some nursing home employees to leave.

From the very beginning,

When Sunset Red Nursing Home appeared in the public eye,

Many netizens had already posted comments saying they wanted to quit their jobs.

As the live stream went on,

Netizens became more and more familiar with Sunset Red Nursing Home.

Especially after learning about the benefits of Sunset Red Nursing Home,

And the work schedules of those employees,

Some current employees of other nursing homes,

Felt more and more that their nursing homes were not worth staying at.

Especially those black-hearted nursing homes.

Employee resignations had already begun to occur.

And regarding this situation,

Some bosses felt powerless.

Some bosses directly blamed Sunset Red Nursing Home.

Claiming directly,

That it was entirely because of Jiang Yuan's actions,

That their nursing homes had become so unstable.

Some bosses even stoked the flames,

Accusing Jiang Yuan of deliberately disrupting industry rules.

Saying that it was fine for Jiang Yuan and Qin Xia to start a business,

But influencing the normal operation of other nursing homes,

Was a bit too much.

Even so,

There were still many people who wanted to leave their current nursing homes.

Which employees wanted to quit,

Had become a common topic of conversation.

Therefore,

The short essays painstakingly written by some nursing home owners,

Had only just appeared on the internet,

When netizens began to retort.

This time,

The netizens didn't criticize the authors of those short essays in the live stream,

But went directly to leave comments under the short essays.

“This is really hilarious. Is this short essay trying to amuse everyone? It keeps accusing Sunset Red Nursing Home of being wrong and complaining that Jiang Yuan disrupted industry rules. I don't know if they're ashamed to say these things?”

“It's clearly because you're not doing your job well, you haven't managed your nursing home well, and you're pushing the responsibility onto others. What does your employees wanting to quit have to do with Jiang Yuan?”

“If you have the ability, keep your employees. Criticizing other nursing homes is useless. Why don't you change your management rules?”

“Yes, yes, yes, making black-hearted money and still wanting to maintain a good reputation. Did you get all the good things in the world? It's really hilarious!”

“That's right. Being able to say such things proves that they're already guilty and have no other options. What does the mess they created have to do with Sunset Red Nursing Home?”

… …

Comments flowed one after another.

The netizens' retorts were also very sharp.

Regarding the views of those black-hearted bosses,

The netizens' attitude was clear.

They simply didn't buy it.

Some netizens directly stated,

That as business owners,

They didn't treat their employees as family.

They didn't work to benefit their employees.

They only cared about putting money into their own pockets.

Some bosses even,

Repeatedly took advantage of their employees.

Always trying to exploit their employees in every possible way.

This phenomenon,

Should have been stopped long ago.

The era of 'fighting the landlord' is long gone.

Yet, there are still some bosses who act like old-fashioned landlords.

Their hearts are as black as can be.

Despite their constant attempts to play the victim in their little essays.

There's hardly any support for them in the comments section.

Some netizens even leave comments under these essays.

And then directly go to Jiang Yuan's live stream.

Advising viewers not to be misled.

Live stream comments:

"I wonder if everyone has seen those little essays online? The authors are ridiculous, twisting the truth like it's nothing."

"Saw a few more, and I feel like these people's thinking is messed up. They're clearly the ones doing wrong, yet they're blaming others. Has it become fashionable to blur the lines between right and wrong these days?"

"Those essays are obviously written by black-hearted bosses. They're worried their employees will leave, so they're deliberately saying things to confuse everyone. Don't fall for it!"

"The real rule-breakers in the industry are these unscrupulous bosses. Business competition is supposed to be fair and just, but they're not fair at all. Deliberately increasing employees' working hours is already unfair!"

The newest novels are first published on 69shu吧!

"Exactly! They're doing wrong themselves, yet they accuse others of breaking the rules. Everyone can see clearly, and the rules weren't made for them."

"It's utterly speechless. Don't believe these people. And a word of advice to those black-hearted bosses: instead of pounding on the keyboard, think about how to retain your employees."

"That's right, that's right. They think they can change the current situation with a few words of accusation? That's childish thinking. We're all adults here, stop playing these empty games."

"…"

As the number of live stream comments increased.

The black-hearted bosses, who had been lurking in the live stream, now realized the seriousness of the situation.

Especially after seeing the comments under the essays.

Some of the bosses were panicking.

The netizens' refusal to buy their narrative.

Was clearly escalating.

If things continued like this.

The bosses started to worry again.

Would the dark history of the nursing homes they ran be exposed?

If that were to happen.

It would be the complete opposite of what they initially intended.

This approach would not only fail to retain current employees.

But it could also lead to widespread condemnation from netizens.

If it really turned into a public outcry.

They might find themselves in a difficult situation.

Some quick-thinking bosses realized this.

And at least changed their strategies.

So.

Another narrative emerged online.

Different from those essays.

The subsequent attempts by the black-hearted bosses to play the victim were more direct.

One boss.

Directly addressed the current problems as a person involved.

The boss stated.

That the current situation.

Couldn't be resolved easily.

As the saying goes, Rome wasn't built in a day.

If the employees really wanted to leave.

A few words from them wouldn't be enough to keep them.

This statement, once it appeared online.

Received a lot of recognition from netizens.

Seeing that people were praising them.

The boss continued with the following thoughts.

"As the head of a company, we also want our employees to have good benefits and be proud of working here. I believe this is what every boss wants."

"But, as everyone knows, there's sometimes a gap between imagination and reality. Due to various reasons, we haven't been able to satisfy everyone in certain areas, and I feel very sorry for that."

"In the end, it's still a funding issue. Nursing homes don't have a lot of funds, so we have to use every penny wisely. To ensure the quality of life for the elderly, we can only make sacrifices ourselves."

"Now, many employees are considering leaving, and we're very anxious. But I still want to say one more thing: I hope those who are planning to leave will reconsider."

The boss stated.

That everyone has their own aspirations, and some people can't be forced to stay if they want to leave.

However, if a large number of employees leave.

The situation faced by the nursing home won't just be a shortage of staff.

At that time.

The shortage of staff in various positions will be an obvious problem.

And most importantly.

The elderly living in the nursing home will have no one to take care of them.

Once the employees leave.

The quality of life for the elderly will decline.

The work normally done by two people.

Could very likely be placed on one person.

There might even be situations where one person does the work of multiple positions.

At that time.

One caregiver looking after two elderly people will become a very common phenomenon.

A person's energy is limited.

Even energetic young people.

Can't keep working overtime all the time.

The elderly will definitely feel wronged.

This is an unavoidable phenomenon.

This statement, once it appeared online.

Many bosses chimed in.

In order to prevent this phenomenon from happening.

They claimed that they were also working hard to make changes.

Some bosses even directly pleaded with those who wanted to leave online to stay.

Claiming that it wasn't for themselves.

But for the sake of the elderly.

They hoped that they wouldn't be so impulsive.

After all, it's okay if they don't make money.

But they can't let the elderly living in the nursing homes suffer.

If all the employees leave.

What will happen to the elderly?
