Reaching for the stars with one hand

Chapter 175 The Three Trials
"Young Master Gong, the Sajia has never cut your drink money, so why did you come to trouble the Sajia?"

Zhang Yong did not wait for Master Gong to laugh presumptuously, and Master Gong was rarely serious, "The coffee shop downstairs in the office, come here, we will discuss in detail."

When Zhang Yong rushed to the coffee shop, he suddenly felt a little funny.Gong Shao found a quiet corner, ordered a pot of black tea, and looked serious, which was not without joy in Zhang Yong's eyes.

"Young Master, what's the matter?"

"I'm not joking, you are really in trouble. At the meeting yesterday, Wei Shao from Mihe reported you."

"Mihe?" Zhang Yong was somewhat surprised, "Brother Gong, I have no regrets in what I do. But it is true that not all of them are compliant, but I neither dared to cross the line, nor did I offend any international or domestic companies outside. Enterprise, I really didn't expect that Mihe would come to sue me, why?"

"Why? You know that Skydon's measurement business has shrunk severely, and domestic receivers have become the mainstream of the market. Although it is still Skydon's business, the OEM department is another department, and everyone settles their own accounts. The success there cannot become the measurement department. The business has been shrinking as an excuse, so both Skydon and agencies like Mihe may place a lot of emphasis on things other than measurement, such as GIS business.”

Zhang Yong probably understood a little bit, but didn't say much, "Now Skydon's GIS business is very poor?"

"It's not bad, but it didn't meet expectations. Originally, Skydon released a handheld RTK for GIS collection, but you also produced a similar product in Mag. Everyone knows that the sales of Mag must not be as good as Skydon, but who knows that you gave the domestic Manufacturers provide ODM to let them compete with Skydon. Skydon has no price advantage, and the entire business is suppressed by you. …”

"At that time, Mihe already hated you to the bone, I'm afraid you didn't feel it at all."

Zhang Yong smiled wryly, "Of course I didn't feel it. I didn't face their competition at all, it was just behind the scenes."

Gong Shao continued: "Hey, you didn't intend to kill anyone, so it's a crime. I doubt it. At that time, Mi He reported you to Mag."

"No way," Zhang Yong couldn't believe it, "They don't think of a way in business, but they want to kill me?"

"Li Wenyu has always been a politician, you should know. But Mag obviously did not listen to Mi He's report and still trusts you. Whether Li Wenyu has complained to TS about you is unknown."

Zhang Yong really didn't expect that he accidentally provoked such an old friend and enemy, but he still didn't know anything about it.

"Fortunately, Mag was soon acquired by SKydon, and the Mag series products were also quickly merged into SKydon. Your products were incorporated into Skydon's brand and sold as the third and fourth brands. The main products are still Skydon's handheld devices. Mi He will stop entangled with you and concentrate on his own business...”

"Hey, Zhang Yong, but you are too capable, and you are too capable. It has not been a year yet, and the new GIS touch screen panel has another interview. Several domestic manufacturers are still besieging SKydon, and Mihe's GIS business has plummeted again. Of course they're in a hurry again."

Zhang Yong smiled slightly: "My price may be lower than SKydon, but not much lower. As for the SKydon brand, the price is 50.00% higher than that of domestic brands, so there should still be sales. I think Mihe himself is not working hard enough." That's all."

Gong Shao looked at Zhang Yong in surprise, "Brother, you are made in China, so you really don't understand Pang De's style? Dongfang Company's bid is probably lower than the price you get from you. This price, Even if Mihe doesn’t make money, he can’t do it. What’s more, SKydon’s agents all want to make high profits.”

"It's lower than my price, so Dongfang won't lose money?"

"It's a loss of money, but Dongfang will provide two batteries, a bag, and a stand, and the tablet will be sold at a par price, just to earn profits from an accessory. This makes it impossible for imported brands to compete."

Zhang Yong gasped, "This is too cruel."

"Domestic brands all do this. They put a brick under their feet, and then flood their nostrils with water. They struggle to survive and drown their opponents."

"What did Mihe tell me? How did they find me?"

"I don't know that this matter is related to you, because we heard that Zhonghe provided the ODM, but Mihe insisted that you did it. I guess they have evidence. Did you do it?"

Zhang Yong smiled and didn't answer directly, "If I did it, I wouldn't leave any evidence."

"Okay," Young Master Gong nodded, "That's fine. I don't care if you made it or not, SKydon is just a job to me, and it's not that important. But if you really do it, the Dongfang companies will definitely Someone knows. Then all this is an open secret, and Mi He will definitely know. They have lost business and urgently need to give SKydon a reason, so they re-reported you. Of course there is another important reason, you should know what it is."

"I know that Li Wenyu has always disliked me, and of course Wei Shao. After all, I didn't sell him the test report back then."

"It's good that you know. But Mihe's report this time is very important. Don't think that SKydon won't punish you if Mag's people didn't touch you. You have been away for too long, and you don't know Mihe's position in SKydon. Now we would rather offend Boss, I dare not offend Li Wenyu."

"so smart?"

"You don't know. When Lao Zhao was here, although the power was not as powerful as Mihe, Tianshi was still a company that could barely compete with Mihe. Once Lao Zhao left, Tianshi's business was still good, but the ability to deal with foreigners was after all. It’s still worse. And Li Wenyu has been the largest agent of SKydon in the world for these years, and Mihe has participated in any business of SKydon, whether it’s OEM, precision agriculture, or maritime. Li Wenyu is now working with SKydon’s boss Steve The friendship with Paul is extraordinary. When the bosses come to China, even if they don’t come to the SKydon office, they will go to Mihe. Do you think it’s amazing?…”

"Li Wenyu complained to any SKydon employee, this employee is dead. Besides, you are a marginal person now, and what Mihe complained about you is not all false accusations, no matter whether the evidence is convincing or not, I think you are in big trouble this time .”

Zhang Yong thought for a while, "Mr. Gong, thank you for reminding me in private. Maybe you don't know, I was going to resign before Skydon officially merged with Mag, but the boss kept me and asked me to wait and see Skydon How to do it. Even if Mi He troubles me now, the most serious thing is that I leave Skydon, which is nothing to be afraid of."

"It's nothing to be afraid of? Brother, you really don't know how dangerous the world is. Let's not talk about whether what you did will involve legal issues. It's just that during your tenure, you used your position to steal company resources and develop your own products without authorization. If the company is fired, can you still gain a foothold in this industry?..."

"Now that Beidou III has gone to the sky, it is the best time for China's satellite navigation industry. You have accumulated a lot of contacts and resources for so many years. If you leave this industry at this time, tell me, will you feel sad?"

Zhang Yong smiled, "Young Master Gong, make a bet. I may leave SKydon, but I will definitely not leave this industry. And I will never be fired by SKydon for faults. If I was still in Tiangong, I might There is a kind of heroic hero who does things like a hero. But now, I know what I should do, and I will not let Mihe and Skydon find a handle on me, and I will not let them force me to leave."

These words were so decisive that Young Master Gong felt his whole body vibrate. He looked at Zhang Yong again, and a different feeling rose in his heart.Zhang Yong in front of him seemed not afraid of anyone at all, and he didn't need anyone to worry about him.

Young Master Gong stood up, "During working hours, I'm going back to work. As long as you are fine, whether you leave or not, remember to come up and have a cup of tea with me when you pass by."

……

In a conference room of SKydon China, Louis, the president of the China region, Dong Bin, the surveyor, Cameron, the boss of Zhang Yong, Shirley Yang, Da Sewa, and a legal counselor from the United States sat on one side.On the other side there is only one person, Zhang Yong.

The first person to speak was Louis, the highest official in China, "Sorry, Yong. You have been in Skydon for a long time, and we haven't had time to have a good chat."

Zhang Yong smiled: "You are welcome, I know you are very busy, and I have nothing to report to you over the boss."

Shirley changed her usual amiability and said with a slightly serious tone: "Zhang Yong, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Our last meeting was delayed for a while. Because we made a frustrating decision, we just fired the laser Li Bin, the head of the department."

"Oh," Zhang Yong nodded slightly, "It's okay, I haven't waited too long, and the time just now happened to have a cup of tea with my colleagues."

"Do you know why we fired Li Bin?"

"I don't know, and I don't care. Skydon has its own rules, and there must be a reason for firing an employee."

Shirley was the first person to punch Zhang Yong, and this was the order they had discussed before, but unexpectedly, this punch fell through.

No one noticed that Da Se Wa, who was sitting on the farthest edge, had a smile on his lips.He was confident and didn't worry about the guy opposite him at all.

Shirley had no choice but to ask and answer by herself, and finished the sentence by herself.

"Li Bin himself established a company outside of SKydon, and the legal person of the company is himself. At the same time, he used the resources in his hands to transfer the agency business to his own company. Now that the evidence is conclusive, we will fire him without any Compensation. And I have issued an announcement to all companies in the industry, telling him of his bad deeds, and his future in this industry has been completely lost."

Zhang Yong nodded, "He deserves it, there is no pity. I wish him good luck."

"Zhang Yong," Dong Bin saw Zhang Yong's relaxed face, unmoved, and took the conversation sternly. “I wish you luck as well. I received complaints that during your tenure at Mag and SKydon, outside of SKydon, you made a device of your own, and then provided it to a Chinese manufacturer as an ODM, and negotiated with SKydon formed a competitive relationship, do you have any explanation?"

"There is no explanation. Chinese law states that whoever makes a claim will provide evidence. Whoever reports me will provide evidence. You haven't even produced evidence. What should I explain?"

Shirley smiled and said: "Because you are an employee of SKydon, we trust you better than reports from third parties. It is best if you can explain clearly, and we can omit the link of proof."

"Okay. Let me tell you about Mag. I provided the ODM for Mag's handheld RTK. It was approved by my boss François and supported by the product manager Heine. I think I did it very successfully. Although that is only Mag's performance, but now we are a family, you should express gratitude for my contribution, not question it."

Da Sewa also smiled and said, "I have always expressed my thanks to you. If you need, I can say it again. Well done, Brother Yong. Everyone, I don't know what Brother Yong has done recently. But if you talk about During the mag period, I suggest that everyone ignore this paragraph. I can testify that everything Brother Yong has done is reasonable and legal."

"Reasonable and legal?" Dong Bin sneered, "I don't think so. We communicated with He Nei, and he didn't have an ODM plan at all. He said that everything about ODM was done by Yong in China."

"Well," Da Sewa looked at Zhang Yong with a smile again, "Well done, Brother Yong." Then she turned her head and glanced at Dong Bin, "Do you need to reward Brother Yong again? I don't think so, We already rewarded him when he was at Mag."

Dong Bin's face was watery, "François, I can't understand your French humor. Mag's Beijing office is just a sales office. I asked Yang Bo, and they didn't participate in ODM development. I want to know, Zhang Yong How did you come up with the plan?"

Zhang Yong suddenly turned to Dong Bin, with a stern flash in his eyes, Dong Bin felt a chill in his heart for no reason.

"Dong Bin, are you Chinese? Can you understand Chinese?"

"Of course, I'm Chinese."

"Okay," Zhang Yong switched the language channel and said to Dong Bin in Chinese, "Why do you care how I made it?" Then he switched back to English, "it's not your business."

"You!" Dong Bin blushed, and a group of foreigners who didn't understand Chinese looked at the Chinese present, only to find that Shirley covered her mouth and seemed to be giggling.

"What did they just say?"

"Let me tell you, I told Dong Bin, how I did it is none of his business, he has no right to ask. Even my boss, Francois, didn't ask me. I made something for the company. I was questioned because of this incident. I don't understand, is this SKydon's philosophy?"

"Of course not," the legal officer finally couldn't help but say, "but we suspect that you have used Mag's ODM to earn your own interests."

"Suspicion? What about the evidence? It didn't cost Mag a penny, but he got the OEM's plan. This is not your evidence, but mine, understand?"

After all, legal affairs are not as layman as Dong Bin, "Your ODM is not sold directly to a Chinese company, but through a third-party company. We suspect that you have an interest in this third-party company, and it is even your company. .”

Zhang Yong glanced at the legal affairs, and then returned his eyes to Louis, the president of the China region, "Mr. President, do we have a recording of today's meeting?"

Cameron, who hadn't spoken all the time, suddenly said, "I'm recording here, Yong. My purpose is very simple. I believe in the innocence of our OEM department, so I want to leave all the evidence of today's discussion. Do you think there is a problem? Want me to turn it off?"

"No, thank you boss. I just ask you for a copy after the meeting. If the final conclusion of this meeting is that I am innocent, I need this information. Let this lady," he pointed to the legal officer , "Apologize to me."

The legal officer was a little angry. Her profession destined her to be a person who is good at managing her emotions, but the Chinese employee in front of her was very proud, which was different from her previous experience, which made her very upset.

Louis made a gesture of pressing down with both hands, "Okay, Yong, calm down, this is just an internal inquiry. According to SKydon's principles, if someone reports a report, we will investigate it, don't get too excited. Let's go back to the evidence bring it on."

"A third-party company seeks profit, which itself is evidence. No matter what you say, it is unreasonable. Zhang Yong, based on this, we can apply for judicial intervention."

Louis turned his head and stopped the legal affairs with his eyes. This is his territory, and whether or not the judiciary intervenes cannot be decided by an American visitor.What's more, if it wasn't for the fact that Mi He's lawsuit was so big that it alarmed Steve, he wouldn't need a legal counsel from the United States at all.

"Miss Lawyer, Dong Bin said just now that He Nei has no ODM plan at all. So the third-party company you mentioned, as a partner of Mag, completed the ODM and then provided the plan to Made in China business. What's the problem?"

"Haha" the legal officer sneered, "Mr. Zhang, you are very smart, and your rhetoric seems reasonable. However, since we are partners, we should make relevant cooperation agreements."

As she spoke, she slammed a stack of documents in her hand onto the table.

"These are all cooperation agreements about China that Mag handed over to Skydon in the past five years. Sorry, this third-party company has never appeared at all. In Mag's financial report, this company is not listed as a customer, just a The agent handles it..."

"Let's take your word for it for now. This company is Mag's ODM partner, but without any cooperation agreement, you are still in violation. Because it involves finances, your violation is serious. At the same time, if you are with this company If there is a relationship of interest, then I am afraid that what you have done has exceeded the scope of SKydon's internal processing."

The legal officer looked smug and stern, "I'll give you a minute, and you can think of a good enough reason to tell us. Although, I don't believe you have any other reason."

"Of course I have," Zhang Yong looked at Da Se Wa with a relaxed expression.

Da Sewa smiled back, "Yes, brother Yong, no problem, you can tell this lawyer lady directly."
