On how to save the world by defeating the protagonist

Chapter 136
Just like Ah Qiong who was tortured by this sentence at the beginning, Zhou Minghai has also been troubled by the same problem for a long time:

What does the phrase "it's cold" mean?
After the new shareholder mysteriously dropped this sentence, without even an explanation, he turned on the stealth mode; those veterans who saw the money would only stare at the new product at hand, let alone thinking about other things. At the end of the day, he will only be asked to hurry up and make some achievements; the employees are even more unreliable, turning simple three words into brain teasers...

"What a bunch of idiots!" Lying on the sofa, Zhou Minghai's teeth itch with hatred.Seeing that the people around him couldn't count on him, he originally wanted to bring out the new shareholder to ask for clarification, but he had to put it aside temporarily because of the declaration of "returning to the position of president":

After being reminded by the woman, the current elders have all learned their skills.Before making achievements, he will not get the support of other shareholders, so he will not be able to return to his original position.

No way, family interests are far more important than curiosity.Zhou Minghai could only suppress the doubts in his heart for the time being, and devote himself to the development of new products; and he is worthy of being the domineering president of the past, and he completed all the preparations for the new product in just one week, waiting for the last one A grand product launch.

But at this juncture, he finally understood the meaning of that sentence:
It turned out that it was not the weather that was going to be cold, but myself.

The countless flashing lights in front of his eyes made him dizzy, and the designers next to his ears were still trying their best to explain something, and the product was right in front of him, but he couldn't do anything: he just felt like he was doing a revisiting game. The dream of the pinnacle, when you wake up from the dream, all the ambitions, status and benefits disappear, leaving only a place of shame.

That's right, it is a shame engraved in the bone marrow.

At the Zhou Group's massive new product launch conference, what the reporters got was not a surprise, but an unexpected and overshadowed giant plagiarism scandal:

"Zhou Minghai, what do you mean?" In front of the city's live broadcast, Meng Wan rushed into the venue with her family's R&D team, and threw a nearly identical product in front of him: "You stole something from my house? Forget it, now you still dare to sell it openly? Do you think my family is dead!"

"Everyone, please see clearly, this is not a new product at all, it's just a new package of something developed by the Meng family a week ago!" Before Zhou Minghai could react, the man pulled out her design Spread out the drawings, and took out an enlarged patent certificate: "This is the Meng family's technology, and we have applied for a patent a long time ago!"

"I don't know where the Zhou Group stole the product design drawings, but I can guarantee that the same verbs of the Meng Family have been on the shelves as early as a week ago!" She immediately attracted everyone's attention, and put The press conference became my home field: "The behavior of the Zhou Group is an infringement and should be severely punished by the law!"

"The Meng family will never condone such shameless behavior, and we will definitely go through legal procedures to resolve it! I know that because the scandal that broke out in the Zhou family a few days ago was too much, many people now think that I, Meng Wan, and Zhou Minghai was tied together, but in fact the two of us have terminated all cooperative relations long ago..."

Meng Wan's initiative to break the news made the media at the scene want to put the microphone in her mouth. Two-thirds of the reporters at the scene circled around her, and the remaining one-third couldn't squeeze in, so they turned their finger on Zhou Minghai who was stunned to the side. :
"Mr. Zhou, do you know that your product is actually plagiarism?", "What do you think about Ms. Meng's accusation?", "What grievances did you have with the Meng family?", "According to the news , This product entered the market a week ago, did you really not know or did it on purpose?”, “Why did the Zhou Group make such a mistake?”, “Do you think this is a coincidence?”…

The question was so tough that the Zhou Group's development team couldn't handle it at all. They tried desperately to explain that it was their own research result, but the comparison chart the other party produced was damn similar; besides, the one who first developed the physical product and put it on the market was The Meng family also applied for a patent for this technology early.

In shopping malls, ideas collide from time to time, and whoever makes the first move is the winner.

Customers don't distinguish the order in which ideas are born, they only know one thing: whoever sells first, whoever is the original.Therefore, even if he knew that he was the one whose ideas had been stolen, Mrs. Zhou couldn't say anything, because in terms of time, Mrs. Zhou has been completely branded as a plagiarist.

From the moment the other party applied for a patent, they had already lost.

While the employees were still trying to explain, their leader stood there, motionless like a wooden man.Maybe it was too much of a blow?Some of the reporters faintly felt that something was wrong: If it was really plagiarism, then why did the Zhou Corporation hold a new product launch event with such fanfare?

Shouldn't this kind of thing be done secretly?

However, even if the whole thing seems too strange, no one is bringing it up now.

Boss Zhou is really pitiful this time. They are thinking like this, but the cameras in their hands don't stop for a moment: Now record this moment first, and then talk about it. As for the truth, there is still time to report it after it comes out.

As a result, Zhou Minghai was still bathed in a flash of white light, as if he was in a vortex of embarrassment and humiliation. Although there were many people standing around him, no one reached out to pull him out.

However, unlike what everyone thinks, Zhou Minghai didn't stand still because his head was empty, but because he thought of too many things in an instant and caused his brain to crash: Why did the Meng family come up with the same product?It is obviously my own thing, why is it sold in advance?Really creative crash?No, it won't be such a coincidence. Could it be that there are ghosts in the company?
It was more than two months ago that he and Meng Wan fell out. At that time, he didn't mention the new product at all, so she shouldn't know about it either?But why is she here today?Was all this planned?Is there a traitor in the team?Or is there someone in the shareholders' meeting who rebelled?

It’s not right, it’s unrealistic to forcibly return the responsibility for smashing to the shareholders. Those people only know how to make money, and they don’t know anything about technology... Could it be that new shareholder named "Wu Qiong" did it?He suddenly seemed to have opened up Ren Du's second channel, biting this conjecture to death:
I see!It must be like this, everything is caused by that woman!She paid a lot of money to break into the interior just to steal her new product, and then gave it to the Meng family to let them develop it first, so as to completely bring down the Zhou Group!That's right, the phrase "it's getting cold" is a hint!

Feeling that he had found the truth, Zhou Minghai jumped up, pushed away the reporter and was about to run towards the company.Before leaving, he disregarded the employees who were still there to block the reporters for him, and only said one sentence: "Notify the shareholders to assemble urgently!" and disappeared at the entrance of the venue.

Seeing that the protagonist of the farce had slipped away, Meng Wan's eyes darkened when she was surrounded by a group of people. After politely asking the reporters to leave, she silently glanced at her phone, and there was a fresh text message on it:

Well done, next, please hurry to the Zhou Corporation and meet the internal staff outside the meeting room.

Last signature: Mad Dog Express.

The moment Zhou Minghai pushed open the door of the meeting room, the suffocating sense of shame and resentment came again: all the shareholders had already done their work, and the moment he entered, they all turned their heads and stared at him, their eyes full of shame. is condemnation.

"You, what do you mean?" Looking at the crowd in front of him, Zhou Minghai knew that the ugliness at the press conference had been exposed, but he still pretended to be calm: "Everyone thinks I'm plagiarizing? Huh? Everyone thinks I'm not this time." It's possible to turn around, right?"

"Let me tell you, you are still far from getting rid of me!" The man suddenly got angry, stretched out his fingers and shouted loudly at Ah Qin in front of him: "You have all fallen into the trap! Everything is this woman's fault! Yes She pretended to be a new shareholder and secretly recorded everything while I was introducing new products, so that the Meng family could take advantage of it!"

"She is a commercial spy, a thief sent by the Meng family to steal products!" Zhou Minghai has completely lost his mind, he does not want to admit failure, he just wants to blame all the mistakes on others: "It's her, she should apologize, she should Take responsibility for everything!"

In his little consciousness, he always thought that as long as he told the so-called "truth", then this woman would automatically fall down, but the fact made him feel unbelievable:

After hearing these words, all shareholders not only did not condemn that "commercial spy", but looked at themselves with strange eyes.

Why not grab this woman right away?Zhou Minghai was still in doubt, when he heard the "spy" he had identified speak slowly:

"Mr. Zhou, are you still talking nonsense up to now?" Ah Qiong was not in a hurry, nor did he excuse himself, but just took a deep look at the almost crazy man in front of him: "I can understand that you want to be the president Heart, but this is not a reason for you to copy other people's products. Moreover, you can't use this as an excuse to forcefully blame me, because no one believes it."

"You said I was a spy? Then let me ask you, is there anything in your scandal-ridden company that is really worth stealing?" She clicked her tongue: "Don't forget, only you know about new products, and You have never brought it out before. It would be too far-fetched to say that I am a prophet;"

"Also, it's even more impossible to say that I stole the idea from that internal meeting last week. Remember what you showed? You only sketched the rough shape of the product to convince shareholders And development prospects, those internal structures and principles and technologies have never been mentioned;”

"In the end, it's a matter of time." The man sneered, his eyes full of sarcasm: "The Meng family launched the product on the same day you released the product. At that time, your design seemed not perfect, right? What's more, they It was a month ago to apply for a patented technology, where was your idea at that time? Now you say it was copied by others?"

"It's just a joke!" She finally made up the knife: "You, and your so-called product, are already the biggest joke in the city!"

Seeing Zhou Minghai go from being filled with righteous indignation to ashes, and finally fell down slowly, Ah Qiong cleared his throat: "Dear shareholders, have you seen this person's performance? I personally think that plagiarism and lying like this are depraved. The person should be permanently disqualified from leading the group, and he should also be fully responsible for this loss;”

"In this dark moment, we need a more capable and responsible leader." She first waved her hand to signal shareholders to be calm, and then gestured to the door: "Here I have prepared a final The right choice."

"She can not only make up for all the losses caused by Zhou Minghai, but also the last chance for the group to get rid of the reputation of 'copycats'."
