Lord, give up! Madam has too many vests

At Qin Group, Qin Shi brought a dozen people from the R&D center to the meeting room.

The staff at the R&D center were all worried.

"Don't worry, Lao Zhao, I will explain it to the board of directors.

Have you done everything I told you to do before?"

Qin Shi patted Director Zhao on the shoulder.

"Boss Qin, I have done everything you instructed.

The blueprints were also destroyed.”

Director Zhao's tone was also very heavy. He could see that Mr. Qin intended to shoulder all the responsibilities alone.

"You don't have to worry about the rest.

There will be a board meeting later, please wait outside the meeting room."

Qin Shi turned off his phone and walked into the meeting room.

All the board members were present in the conference room and the atmosphere was solemn.

In addition to the members of the board of directors, there are several foreigners in suits, two women and one man. These three are representatives of ST Auto.

Qin Shi frowned. It had only been one day since the new car was released, and ST Auto had already sent people over. This showed that ST Auto must have been paying attention to Qin Qi's new car for a long time.

Qin Shi found a seat and sat down.

"Boss Qin hasn't woken up yet, and he's still in the hospital recuperating. During this time, I'll be taking over as interim chairman."

Shen Yun glanced at Qin Shi again.

“Everyone has heard about the car plagiarism incident.

Qin Shi, you have always been in charge of Qinqi's affairs.

Do you have anything else to explain to the board?"

Qin Shi half leaned back on the chair and spread out his hands.

“I have nothing to explain.

At least our new car is different from any other car from ST Motors.”

Shen Yunzhong remembered that his eyebrows twitched twice, and he suppressed his anger.

"What's your attitude? Do you think someone copied our car?

They hired an internationally renowned design team!

And you, I asked you to call the car designer over, but he didn't even show up. Isn't that a guilty conscience?"

From the perspective of automobile design, the international automobile industry has always been ahead of the domestic one, not to mention the design team.

Especially for a century-old car company like ST, it is a joke to say that they copied a car factory that is about to go bankrupt.

The representative from ST Auto also spoke at this time.

"Mr. Qin Shi, the new car we are about to launch is almost identical to your design.

Our new car launch was originally scheduled for the end of the month, and our new car concept map was finalized a month ago.

If we calculate based on the time, unless your designer can prove that your design draft was completed earlier than our concept car, you are guilty of plagiarism."

The other party's representative looked very proud.

As the leader of the automotive industry, they have always looked down upon other automotive companies.

"Qin Shi, did you hear that?

Find a car designer here quickly.

This is a cross-border infringement. If we don't settle quickly, it will affect the reputation and stock price of the entire group."

There was a warning in Shen Yunzhong's words. When the news came out this morning, the share prices of Qin Corporation and Qinqi both plummeted.

The best solution at the moment is to let the designer take the blame, admit to plagiarism, and resign.

“I have been solely responsible for the new car, and I was the one who approved the design drawings. If you have any questions, just come to me.

As for the design draft, I also got it a month ago."

Qin Shi still had the tone of a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

"Qin Shi, do you want to bear all the consequences alone?

I tell you, you can't afford the consequences.

ST Auto can sue us, and the compensation amount is as high as tens of billions. Even if the entire Qinqi company is involved, it still won’t be enough to compensate us.”

Shen Yunzhong's face looked grim.

Qin Shi said nothing.

The conference room fell into dead silence.

At this time, the door of the conference room opened.

A secretary came in and handed a fax to Shen Yunzhong.

Shen Yun took another look, his eyes darkened, and the next moment, he threw the fax in front of Qin Shi.

"Is this why you refuse to reveal who the designer is?

颜？

Qin Shi, I think you have lost your mind.

"For something as important as developing a new car, you actually let a completely uninitiated woman be the designer?"

When Shen Yunzhong saw the signature on the design drawing, he immediately understood that this car design drawing was actually drawn by Yan Lan.

Qin Shi took a closer look and saw the design drawing thrown in front of him.

Didn’t he ask Director Zhao to destroy the design drawings?

“Deputies, the matter is very clear.

This incident was caused by a small designer inside the car factory.

She may have plagiarized your company's design drawings through some means.

We will ask her to resign and take full responsibility. In addition, we have already rolled off the production line for new cars.

All personnel involved in this project will be fired.”

Qin Shi suddenly raised his head.

"I object. I am the person in charge of Qinqi. It should be me who decides how to deal with my employees."

Shen Yunzhong's decision means that all staff in the R&D center must be fired.

Shen Yun slammed the table, pointed at Qin Shi and scolded him loudly.

“You can’t disagree.

Qinqi is a subsidiary of the Qin Group, and this decision was made by the entire company's board of directors."

At this time, a middle-aged man among the three representatives of ST Company made an interrupting gesture.

He is Mr. Smith, the first representative of ST Company this time. In addition, he is also the chief designer of ST Automobile. It is said that the design drawings suspected of plagiarism this time came from his work team.

"If you are willing to admit the plagiarism and publicly apologize to ST Auto, we may consider not firing your R&D team.

But you must hand over that designer, he is a shameful thief.

He is suspected of stealing our trade secrets and we will file a lawsuit against him.

In addition, we have another condition.

Qinqi can continue to produce new cars and use the relevant patented designs.

However, Qinqi must transfer 51% of its equity to ST Auto, which will fully supervise Qinqi.

When Shen Yunzhong heard the settlement terms offered by ST, he breathed a sigh of relief and his expression became noticeably more relaxed.

The other members of the board also looked happy.

It is simply a blessing in disguise that a car manufacturer on the verge of bankruptcy can actually cooperate with a large international car manufacturer like ST.

"I won't agree to any of your conditions."

But what made Shen Yunzhong's face change instantly was that Qin Shi actually refused it outright.

"Qinshi, Qinqi is a subsidiary of the group, and the board of directors has the right to decide on the projects of the subsidiary."

Shen Yunzhong warned Qin Shi.

"That was in the past. If I remember correctly, about 70% of Qinqi's shares are not held by the group. So to decide whether Qinqi should cooperate with ST, a shareholders' meeting must be held."

Qin Shi’s words left Shen Yunzhong speechless for a moment.

50% of Qinqi’s shares belong to Mr. Qin, and the remaining 50% belong to the group.

Later, when Mr. Qin was hospitalized, his shares were given to Qin Shi. A while ago, the stock price of Qinqi plummeted, and Qin's investment department sold a large number of stocks.

Originally, the investment department planned to buy back the shares after the stock price rose, but they didn't know that there were two big capitals in the stock market that had been sweeping up Qinqi's shares during this period. Now, those two big capitals and Qinshi hold 70% of Qinqi's shares.

If Qin Shi contacted those two capitals, the Qin Group would really have no so-called decision-making power.

Seeing how rude Qin Shi was, Smith stood up with an unhappy look on his face.

"In that case, we'll have to meet in court.

Don’t regret it when the time comes.”

"Mr. Smith, please don't be angry.

We will definitely give you an explanation regarding Qin Qi’s matter.

I have contacted the designer and asked her to come over and apologize to you in person."

Shen Yunzhong quickly put on a smile and stepped forward to apologize.

"Who asked you to contact her?"

When Qin Shi heard that Shen Yunzhong had contacted Yan Lan without telling him, his expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

"If she has the nerve to steal other people's trade secrets, she must be held accountable.

Don't think I don't know that you secretly gave her 10% of Qinqi's shares without telling us.

With this stolen design, she can get a 10% stake?

I think you are just as confused as your grandfather, and have been fooled by that woman."

Shen Yunzhong sneered.

When he saw the design drawings, he asked Zhao Nan to contact Yan Lan.

If Qin Shi doesn't apologize, then let Yan Lan apologize.

Zhao Nan refused at first, but Shen Yunzhong said that if Yan Lan did not come to apologize in person, Qin Shi would be kicked out of the group company and the entire R&D team of the automobile factory would be fired.

Zhao Nan had no choice but to contact Yan Lan.

Shen Yunzhong sneered, having long felt that Yan Lan was a scheming woman.

"Vice President Shen, I'm taking 10% of the shares, and you seem to have a problem with that?"

Just at this moment, the door of the conference room opened.

A woman with a ponytail and wearing a white cotton dress walked in briskly.

She was carrying an eco-friendly bag and had a faint smile on her face, looking out of place among the business people in the conference room.

Behind her was Zhao Nan, who looked guilty.

"you?"

Qin Shi looked at Zhao Nan with a sharp gaze.

"I heard that our new car was accused of plagiarism?

Why didn't you tell me such an important thing?"

Yan Lan walked to Qin Shi's side, Qin Shi frowned,

"I can handle the situation here, you go back first."

Qin Shi had already arranged everything. Even if Yan Lan didn't come, he was confident that he could solve it. He didn't want her to get involved.

“But I don’t want to go back.

I want to tell everyone here that I was wronged, Qin Qi was also wronged, and my design drawings were not plagiarized.

Qin Qi doesn't need to apologize to anyone.

He was the one who plagiarized.

He and ST Company should both apologize."

Yan Lan said this and slowly turned around, the smile on her face gradually disappeared.

She seemed like a different person, her eyes were sharp, she raised her hand and pointed at the group of people from ST Auto standing not far away.
