Shockingly, a counterfeit factory has produced a 3-nanometer chip.

Chapter 480 Spreading Rumors! The Legal Department Should Take Action

#Transsion maliciously exploits Gionee's data#

#Transsion unfair competition#

Multiple related searches quickly rose to the top of the trending searches.

"Holy crap! Transsion's behavior is too disgusting, they're just using capital to crush us."

"I've said it before: the boy who slays the dragon will become the dragon himself. He's still poaching from competitors now, and once those competitors are gone, he too will eventually become a dragon."

"Sigh, domestic brands just love to fight amongst themselves. No wonder Transsion has always lagged behind Apple overseas."

The comments section was full of people who didn't know the truth, mixed with the voices of some trolls deliberately stirring up trouble.

As Liu Lirong scrolled through her phone and watched the trending topic climb, a smug smile crept onto her face.

This time, he will definitely inflict serious damage on Chuan Yin.

After all, in his opinion, Chuanyin would definitely choose to settle privately for the sake of his reputation, and this time he had to make the other party come to him on his own initiative; if their attitude was even slightly off, a settlement would be impossible.

He can ask for three or five hundred million then. He can then cash out and live a carefree life.

As for whether Gionee lives or dies, what does that have to do with him? That's a matter for the local government to handle. After all, they don't want so many laid-off workers to be without work!

But when he looked at his phone, he quickly became anxious again. After all, the buzz had already reached such a point, and Chuanyin still hadn't sent anyone to contact him.

Is the other party genuinely confident, possessing some leverage, or are they just putting on an act...?

So he walked around the office muttering curses for a while, and then turned on Lu Weibin's private phone.

When he spoke, his tone was no longer filled with curses and swears; instead, it was gentle and caring like that of a wise older brother.

"Weibin! You saw the news today, right?"

Actually, I don't want to put you in a difficult position, but the company is indeed having a tough time right now. I know you have grievances, but we've worked together for almost 10 years. Even if you haven't made any great contributions, you've certainly put in a lot of hard work.

Come back soon. The position of group president is still yours. I'll triple your salary and give you an extra 5% of the shares. Let's work together, brothers, to get Gionee through this difficult time.

Liu Lirong's words were very eloquent, but she was actually making a lot of calculations in her mind.

After all, he can't stabilize the banks and supply chains right now; only Lu Weibin can handle these things.

If he really comes back, he can handle Gionee better and sell it for more money.

As for wages and shares, that's Mr. Xing's business. He's already cashed out and left, so who cares about those things anymore?

"Mr. Liu, I have officially joined Transsion."

Lu Weibin's voice was somewhat cold, as if he had already guessed what tricks Lu Weibin was going to play.

"Old Lu, I know the conditions for opening a communication channel are high, but after all, it's the place where you've worked hard for 10 years..."

"My resignation procedures were handled in accordance with the normal procedures of the Labor Law." Lu Weibin clearly didn't want to talk to this shameless scoundrel any longer, as he kept bringing up the Labor Law.

"In addition, you didn't sign a non-compete agreement with me, so there's no penalty for breach of contract or anything like that."

As for the joint guarantees and other follow-up matters, Transsion's legal and financial teams have taken over everything.

Hearing these words about legal matters or labor law, Liu Lirong's face turned completely dark, and he slammed his fist on the table in anger.

"Lu Weibin, what do you mean?"

Are you really going to drive the company to its demise?

"Mr. Liu, what I mean is that in the future, if there is anything related to the company, including what terms you want to discuss, you can contact my lawyer directly."

There's no need to make private calls.

Regarding the supply chain funding, we hope you will pay as soon as possible. Otherwise, our legal team will help those suppliers seek justice, which will likely take at least five years.

After Lu Weibin finished speaking, he hung up the phone immediately. Only then did he understand why Shen Fei wanted to use the legal department to handle this matter, after all, this mess was too big.

Liu Lirong was stunned for two seconds; she really didn't expect Lu Weibin to talk to her like that.

Threatened by his subordinate, he flew into a rage, his face contorted with rage like a door god.

Liu Lirong became increasingly angry as she tried to back down, so she smashed her phone down, shattering the screen into pieces.

"Ungrateful wretch!"

What an ungrateful wretch!

"Without me, would Lu Weibin be where he is today? Now that he's latched onto the coattails of a broadcasting company, he dares to challenge me."

He went out dressed like that and paced back and forth in the office, feeling increasingly panicked.

After all, Lu Weibin's lack of cooperation prevented many plans from proceeding.

But then he thought, since the entertainment buzz has already started, even if Lu Weibin doesn't come back, as long as the topic continues to generate buzz, he won't have any peace.

He's determined to get this money!

So he specially approved another 500 million yuan to have the reporters report on the matter repeatedly, and also to have some influential figures on the internet take action again.

However, that afternoon he suddenly realized that the online buzz seemed to be much bigger than the influence that the bloggers he had invited could have.

But he didn't take it seriously, thinking that there were still quite a few righteous people, and that the 500 million was well spent.

These kinds of lousy companies should be sanctioned.

However, he did not expect that Transsion's legal department was not refusing to take action, but was investigating the evidence.

So at 10:30 a.m. the next day, Transsion's official Weibo account released a statement refuting the rumors.

Transsion Legal Department: "In response to yesterday's online rumors, Transsion hereby issues the following statement:"

First, Lu Weibin resigned voluntarily, and his employment complied with all labor laws. There was no malicious poaching. Moreover, before leaving, Lu Weibin said he would help Gionee clean up its mess, but instead of being grateful, someone maliciously slandered him.

Secondly, the R&D and marketing personnel who were rumored to have been poached were all self-employed after their labor contracts expired, and Transsion never contacted them proactively.

After all, we are absolutely in the top tier when it comes to Transsion's publicity and research capabilities.

Third, Gionee is facing operational difficulties, with unpaid wages being a well-known fact. It also owes a large amount of money to suppliers. Despite its own poor performance, it's trying to shift the blame onto its competitors and gain attention.

Below is some evidence, and some onlookers who saw this reply quietly deleted their comments.

After all, the announcement concluded by stating that the manager's false statements had seriously infringed upon Transsion's right to reputation and its normal business operations.

Transsion's legal department has officially filed a lawsuit with the Shenzhen Intermediate People's Court, demanding that the manager issue a public apology, eliminate the negative impact, and compensate for reputational damages totaling 5000 million yuan.

Below the statement is a series of evidence: labor arbitration evidence of Gionee's failure to pay employee salaries, evidence that the company still did not pay after the arbitration, and a scanned copy of Lu Weibin's resignation certificate.

Public opinion reversed instantly!

What angered netizens even more was that these intelligent people were used as pawns by these media outlets to bully a normal company.

"So, when their own company is about to go bankrupt and employees are leaving for other jobs, they blame others for poaching them."

"They lack ability and have no other choice but to leech off professional managers, so they resort to extortion. This kind of behavior from their peers is disgusting!"
