"There should be a clue, Dr. Zhang, please take a look at this photo first."

Hu Yang took out a few photos from his bag and handed them to Zhang Rulin's hands.

Zhang Rulin took the photo and took one look at it. The expression on his face changed a lot. He raised his head and said in disbelief: "What can such a photo mean?"

"Don't worry, just keep reading. I'll explain it to you after you finish."

Hu Yang secretly sighed. He didn't want to hit Zhang Rulin unless he had to, but reality is sometimes so cruel.

After Zhang Rulin had seen all the photos, Hu Yangcai said: "The first photo is the scene where the company's technical backbone comes into contact with an outsider. This outsider is actually the middle liaison, and what he serves is what appears in the photo.

The third party is An Zhi of Ankang Insurance.

I'll keep the rest of the story short. An Zhizhi has recently been in close contact with Zeng Ruhai of Xiangjiang Mingji Holdings. You should be familiar with Xiangjiang Mingji Holdings, right? When we built the factory, we suffered a big loss from the Zeng family. The Zeng family

The relationship with Taipower is extraordinary, Dr. Zhang must be very clear about it, so I don’t need to say more.”

Zhang Rulin and Taipower are old enemies. When Xentong International was first established, Zeng Xiangqi also withheld the company's key equipment. Of course, he did not forget it so quickly.

Therefore, Zhang Rulin immediately understood the meaning behind the line strung together by Populus euphratica. The only thing that shocked him was that the technical backbone in the photo was none other than one of his two close men.

This person has followed Zhang Rulin for many years, from Texas Instruments to Baodao to Shanghai, and now he has betrayed the company.

"Mr. Hu, let me ask a question that I shouldn't ask. Do you know what this technical backbone talked about with outsiders?"

Zhang Rulin refused to give up and was unwilling to believe the facts in front of him.

"I don't know what they talked about specifically, but, Dr. Zhang, at this juncture, do you think this is just a coincidence? I am not a judge, and I don't need to convict people. I just don't want the company to suffer losses. This

Please forgive me for this."

Hu Yang was a little disappointed. Zhang Rulin's character is undoubtedly worthy of everyone's admiration, but as the leader of a company, he cannot be so emotional.

Zhang Rulin said nothing and silently returned the photo to Hu Yang.

Yes, these photos cannot convict a person, but they can explain a lot of problems. Zhang Rulin felt that if he continued to consider his personal relationship for many years, he would probably bring unpredictable risks to the company.

"Mr. Hu, tomorrow I will send someone to review the new process again. However, the new process has passed trial production and has begun to be transferred to formal production. This process is irreversible. I say this, do you understand?"

Zhang Rulin's voice was a little dry, and he had already guessed where the problem might arise.

In the afternoon of the next day, Zhang Rulin, who looked tired, saw Populus euphratica again.

"Dr. Zhang, is the situation not good?"

"Well, the situation is indeed not good. The company's new manufacturing process really incorporates a small part of Taipower-related technology. This part of the technology should be regarded as the fringe area of ​​technology patents. If you really want to care about it, you have to

It depends on how the court determines it.”

There is no doubt that Zhang Rulin's confidant was responsible for the part of the work that caused the problem.

But even so, there is no good way to deal with that person. The most he can do is find an excuse to fire him, and he can't even call the police.

He didn't steal the company's trade secrets, he just brought some private goods into his work. But it was precisely this inconspicuous private goods that got him caught.

Hu Yang sighed in his heart, he worked so hard, but he still couldn't prevent things from happening.

In the final analysis, he is just a major shareholder of Xintong International and has no management authority, but Zhang Rulin will not dance with his baton.

"Mr. Hu, I know what you are thinking. I have betrayed your trust in this matter. However, I told you last time that this is the tragedy of the pursuer. Without this small technical point,

The entire manufacturing process cannot be broken through. I think this is the problem and the key."

Zhang Rulin didn't blame the company's reviewers, but he could only blame himself for being too emotional and trusting his closest subordinates without reservation.

Hu Yang calmed down and didn't know what to say.

After a long while, he said: "Dr. Zhang, since the manufacturing process is irreversible, let's not think so much and seize the time to carry out mass production. I will figure out the rest of the things in case the other party

Take the initiative and try to minimize the loss."

...

Returning to the "old foreign house", Populus euphratica sat alone in the pavilion in the garden, feeling unhappy.

What he is thinking now is that if the Taipei lawsuit comes as scheduled, the bunch of photos he has may not be useful. The main reason is that if the photos are used as evidence, they will most likely be excluded as illegal evidence.

Sometimes it depends on luck.

Taipower will definitely not sue Xintong International in the mainland. According to the principle of maximizing interests, it should be sued in Xiangjiang.

Of course, there is a little bit of good news.

In that time and space, CoreCom International was listed on both Nasdaq and the Stock Exchange at the same time. Therefore, the legal dispute between Taipower and CoreCom International for several years was conducted in the United States.

In the current time and space, due to the intervention of Hu Yang, Xintong International has given up its plan to list in the United States and is only listed on the Stock Exchange.

In this way, if Taipower files a lawsuit, it can only be in Hong Kong. This will be more beneficial to Xentong International and will not lead to an obvious tendency like the US courts.

"Lao Yu, what's the change in Xentong International's stock price today?"

Without Lin Yan following him, Hu Yang's phone had been in silent mode, and he had forgotten about it. When he remembered it, he took out his phone and saw that there were already many missed calls, including Yu Hongbo's.

So Populus euphratica first returned to Yu Hongbo.

"Mr. Hu, there is good news about Xintong International in the market today. The company's new process technology has been put into mass production. Institutions have raised the company's profit expectations. Xintong International's stock price has soared. As of the close, its stock price was 8.69 yuan.

"

Yu Hongbo was very happy on the phone. The stock price has risen, which is always good news.

"Well, I understand, just keep staring. I have something else to do here, so I won't talk anymore."

Hu Yang hung up and probably guessed his opponent's thinking, but he felt that he had no choice.

As the saying goes, if you fly high, you may fall hard. Your opponents probably follow the same pattern. They take advantage of the good news to raise the stock price and make a quick profit. Then they release bad news, such as the news that the opponent is suing CoreCom International.

Then bring the stock price down.

In this case, the opponent not only made money, but also severely damaged the market value of Xentong International. It can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Then through a protracted lawsuit to force Zhang Rulin to submit, the result will be the same as Hu Yang's previous life.

Thinking of this, Hu Yang was shocked. Only then did he realize that he had no fighting spirit. What was the problem?

The problem still lies with Zhang Rulin. Hu Yang subconsciously regarded him as a "pig teammate", so he had emotions and wanted to give up.

In fact, Zhang Rulin has his own difficulties. Regardless of whether there is an "inner ghost" or not, various patent issues will inevitably arise in the process of climbing the technology tree.

This is normal, even among some multinational companies, they often do this. For example, Samsung is pinching the fruit, Qualcomm is pinching the fruit... The key is to have the determination to move forward.

"Yeah, the worst outcome is that we lose the lawsuit, the company is still there, and there are no obstacles that we can't overcome."

Hu Yang stood up, stretched his waist, and felt much better.

Don’t rush into the lawsuit now. Xintong International will hire lawyers to come forward when the time comes. What Hu Yang needs to do now is to find an opportunity to attack the Zeng family and Ankang Insurance.

As for Taipower, based on the principle of easier things first and harder things later, we’ll talk about it later.

"Mr. Hu, I'm sorry, because I didn't know people well, which caused losses to the company. The company decided to fire the insider, and we can't leave this hidden danger behind."

Zhang Rulin thought about it for two days and fired the mole. Although doing so would alarm his opponents, it was also responsible for himself.

Hu Yang didn't say anything. From Zhang Rulin's standpoint, he had the right to do so.

"I understand, Dr. Zhang. Let's just wait and see what happens. We'd better do our own thing. As for me, I will be returning to the deep sea soon. If anything happens, let's call."

Hu Yang originally planned to say goodbye to Zhang Rulin, but since he called, he just said it by the way without disturbing him anymore.

Hu Yang went to Huijia International Investment (Pudong) Company in the past two days, and Ye Chong told him that the land matter may have to wait until next month, and he will need to participate in the bidding then.

If you bid, just bid. The land in Magic City is far from that expensive now, and Populus euphratica doesn't take it to heart.

"Mr. Hu, guess who I am?"

After calling to arrange the route, Hu Yang prepared to return to the deep sea the next day. In the evening, he received a call.

"Tian Sichun, right? I saved your phone number. Why did you remember to call me?"

Fortunately, when Hu Yang saved the number, he noted the other party's name, otherwise he would not be able to remember the series of numbers, mainly because he was unfamiliar with them.

"I've arrived in the Magic City. I can rest here for one night. I won't have a flight mission until tomorrow. Where are you, Mr. Hu, are you still here?"

Tian Sichun heard that Populus euphratica was coming to Shanghai that day, so he called today to see where he was.

"Haha, what a coincidence, I'm still in the Magic City today and will go back to the deep sea tomorrow. How about we come out and have dinner together in the evening?"

Hu Yang couldn't help but smile. Tian Sichun was very proactive. Did he want to meet alone? Well, it was nothing, just as she wished.

"Okay, okay. Can you tell me the specific address? I'll take a taxi to find you."
