Chapter 26 Scapegoat
”President Fujita!?”
Everyone in the conference room was shocked to see the group vice president with his hair combed very neatly.
Even Sakata Shuichi regained some consciousness and looked up at him.
Fujita Yoshiki was also looking at him and said in a deep voice: “I heard that such a big thing happened in Dahua District, so I flew here immediately. Sakata-kun, leave it to me next.”
Sakata Shuichi’s eyes flashed with hesitation and unwillingness, but he finally nodded.
“Very good, I will say two things next.”
Fujita Yoshiki exudes a rational and tough temperament, and speaks slowly,
”First, no matter what, we cannot admit that our products are defective, which will cause irreversible damage to our brand.”
”Second, we cannot be the one behind this incident! So we can only make a bold move now and find someone to stand up and admit that we personally led this incident, and our purpose is to extort a high amount of compensation from Daqin Optics.”
Wow——
After hearing what Fujita Yoshiki said, the conference room suddenly boiled.
“You mean to find a scapegoat?”
”Where can we find this scapegoat?”
”This is the crime of extortion, and now the impact is so bad, it will definitely not be lightly sentenced. Who will take this crime?”
”Yes, this may cost you more than ten years in prison!”
”…”
Most of them are just ordinary workers. When they heard that someone had to take the blame, especially the prison pot, they were a little emotional, fearing that they would be named.
Fujita Yoshiki completely ignored their discussions, and instead looked at Bian Dongjie with a clear goal. The deep look made Bian Dongjie’s hair stand on end.
The entire conference room became quiet unconsciously, and everyone’s eyes were focused on Bian Dongjie.
“No… No!” Bian Dongjie quickly stepped back and shouted, “I don’t want to be a scapegoat! I just followed Sakata’s instructions. What did I do wrong!?”
”Dongjie, please calm down and think about it… Once those water army are caught, they will definitely give you up immediately. You are the actual executor of this incident. You can’t get away no matter what.”
Fujita Yoshiki stared at Bian Dongjie and continued in a cold tone, “As long as you are willing to stand up for the company, we will not only help you bear all the compensation and fines, but also give your family an additional 5 million resettlement fee.”
Hearing this, Bian Dongjie’s resistance immediately became much smaller, and a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes.
”In addition, you seem to have lost a lot of money in stock trading some time ago?”
Seeing that Bian Dongjie showed signs of giving in, Fujita Yoshiki finally took out his trump card and took a stack of information from his assistant and threw it at Bian Dongjie’s feet.
“According to our financial investigation, you have been embezzling the company’s sales funds for personal turnover! You should know the consequences of embezzling public funds in huge amounts?”
”I… How could it be possible! You are slandering me! The sales funds are directly transferred to the company’s account by the dealers, how could I embezzle them?”
”The evidence is right under your feet, no matter how you quibble, it’s useless. Anyway, you are going to jail, one is to separate your wife and children, the other is to get 5 million resettlement money, and you can enjoy family reunion after you get out, you can choose.”
”…”
Bian Dongjie’s eyes were completely desperate. —— The speed of the development of the matter exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Just when the network security department launched a surprise operation and arrested a group of water army and was still interrogating them, Bian Dongjie, the director of the sales department of Suoni Dahua District, ran to the public security bureau to surrender himself! At the same time, Suoni China’s official website also released an announcement, saying that its employee Bian Dongjie owed a huge debt due to stock speculation. He not only embezzled public funds privately, but also held a grudge against Daqin Optics because of performance pressure. He secretly retaliated against the company management. He has now been fired by Suoni, and Suoni China will reserve the right to pursue his criminal responsibility.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused an uproar on the Internet.
”Suoni dares to do it but not to take responsibility. Bian Dongjie is obviously just a scapegoat.”
”I went to work at Suoni, but the salary was silver handcuffs. I just want to ask if you are afraid!”
”I originally thought that with Daqin Optics, I could consider selling Jiawei Ni, but now I am completely uninterested.”
”…”Everyone knows that Bian Dongjie is Suo Ni’s shield, but as long as Bian Dongjie doesn’t give in, no one can do anything to him.
In an office of the China Academy of Space Technology, Li Xinqiang looked at today’s headlines and was so angry that his beard stood up.
”It’s simply shameless. Not only is it a technology monopoly, but it also uses such despicable tricks.”
And it’s a Fortune 500 company that suppresses a small company that has just been established for a few days. In a small sense, this is vicious business competition.
In a big sense, it is deliberately suppressing China’s national enterprises, and its heart is damnable! The direction of public opinion has completely changed with several official tweets. Even the onlookers who don’t understand digital photography at all have joined the verbal attack on Suo Ni.
Under pressure from public opinion, all departments hope to investigate the results of the matter as soon as possible and give the public an explanation, but the problem is always stuck with Bian Dongjie.
His attitude was very firm. He did it, and it had nothing to do with Suoni. You can be punished or sentenced as you like.
In fact, Kang Chi was basically satisfied that things could develop to this point.
He did not expect to defeat Suoni directly this time. That was unrealistic and unnecessary.
Even if Suoni fell, he would not be able to eat the empty market cake for the time being. In the end, it would still be cheaper for Jianeng Nikang. They are both companies from island countries, and there is no difference at all.
So after a week of stalemate, Daqin Optics and the court reached a consensus and agreed to characterize the matter according to Bian Dongjie’s statement.
Bian Dongjie was eventually sentenced to ten years for malicious defamation, extortion and other crimes, and fined 1.5 million, of which 1 million was used to compensate Daqin Optics.
The other hundreds of water armies were also punished and sentenced according to the actual situation. This sensational business case finally came to an end.
In the whole incident, Suoni lost both the wife and the army. Not only did it lose hundreds of millions directly or indirectly,
The company’s reputation was seriously affected and it will take a long time to recover.
On the contrary, Daqin Optics turned a disaster into a blessing. Not only did it gain popularity and sales soared, but it also received a compensation of one million.
In addition, there were more than one hundred Suoni cameras worth over one million…
These cameras were eventually sold to the second-hand market by Kang Chi in exchange for cash flow.
When leading the workers to build a new production line, Kang Chi’s mouth was numb with laughter.
”Boss Kang really played a good hand this time.”
That day, Zhang Qing also called to congratulate him on overcoming the difficulties.
“It was just a fluke. Actually, I’m still a little scared. What if the camera they sent me was really damaged by our product? I’ll have to pay off the debt for the rest of my life.”
”Really? But when I asked you to withdraw your statement, your tone didn’t sound like you were unsure.”
”That was all fake.” Kang Chi took a sip of coffee. “By the way, what happened to the VR movie you mentioned last time?”
”Don’t mention it. They said it was technically feasible, but they asked for 20 million yuan in equipment customization fees. And when they make it for us, they have to charge another 100,000 yuan a day in rent!”
”This is purely treating us as a sucker for R&D funds, so the project can only be shelved temporarily. Fortunately, this project is not particularly important. It’s mainly for trial… Do you have any other suggestions?”
”Yes.”
”Can you tell me?”
”Wait until I make a camera.”
“Ahem…”
Zhang Qing on the other end of the phone choked up, and after a while, she said speechlessly: “Are you kidding? When you make a camera, movies will become history!”
”Do you look down on me so much?”
”Don’t get me wrong.” Zhang Qing explained quickly, “I’m not looking down on you, but I know that making a camera is too difficult!
This is not making a lens, let alone CMOS, even a decent image processor is not made by many companies in China…
Of course, if you mean assembling a camera, then I can still look forward to it.”
Kang Chi just smiled: “Anyway, you said it was not a particularly important experimental project, and the conditions may suddenly mature one day.”
Zhang Qing certainly didn’t understand what Kang Chi meant, and thought he was comforting herself. The two chatted briefly for a few more sentences and ended the call.
After hanging up the phone, Kang Chi immediately devoted himself to the expansion of the production line until Fang Qiming suddenly came over and said that a Japanese was looking for him.
”Who? Fujita Yoshiki?”
I received a notice yesterday, I will start to test the waters next week. I hope you will read it then, especially the chapters released on Tuesday. You must read them all on the same day~ Thank you for your support!
As for updates, there will only be two updates during the new book period. I will leave the explosive updates for after the book is put on the shelves TT PS: My typing speed is actually OK, but my brain speed is slow, so the result is still slow, which is uncomfortable.
