To hit her quarterly KPI, female CEO Lin Wan enforced a ruthless "cost-cutting and efficiency" plan, firing 58-year-old tech director Zhou Ming first—she saw him as a "useless old fossil" who "left on time daily" and "couldn't use new software." It wasn't until Zhou left that Lin realized: the R&D team took collective leave to see him off, clients called panic-stricken about orders without Zhou, and most shockingly—Zhou held 80% of the company's core patents, all major clients were his old connections, and even the signature product was his decade-old creation. Within three days, orders were withdrawn, suppliers cut off goods, the bank froze accounts, and the company went bankrupt. Meanwhile, Zhou joined a rival firm as chief consultant, and the rival immediately launched an identical product at 20% lower price, seizing the market. Lin showed up red-eyed, begging Zhou to "save the company." But Zhou pulled out the layoff notice and said calmly: "I just made the 'efficient' choice you believed in."
