The HR director's words were very decisive, and Xu Binteng became furious.

He slammed the table and shouted, "More than 80 of us have come all the way from Shenzhen, and you're going to cut the entire department before we even have time to get comfortable? How can you do that?"

The HR director frowned and said very rationally, "Old Xu, calm down first. The company is in a big trouble right now. We can't get through this without making sacrifices. Besides, if the company lets you leave, it will give you reasonable compensation according to the labor law and our contract."

Xu Bin immediately asked: "What is the compensation standard?"

The HR director said, "N+1, but the employees you brought in have been employed for less than half a year, so the company will settle everyone's salary up to today, and pay half a month's salary as compensation based on each person's salary. For others, it will be strictly implemented according to n+1 based on their actual years of service in the company."

"Half a month?!" Xu Bin was immediately anxious: "Are you sending beggars away? We came all the way here, and you just quit and give us only half a month's compensation? Is that reasonable?"

Seeing Xu Bin getting anxious, the HR director cleared his throat and reminded him, "Calm down, Old Xu. Although you have only been in the company for a short time, has the company treated you unfairly? You took the 500,000 yuan signing fee, and even the company filed your personal tax. How much was your annual salary in your last job? Don't you know?"

When it comes to the signing fee, Xu Bin immediately softens.

To be honest, even if the team was disbanded on the spot and there was no compensation, he would still have made a lot of money.

Not to mention what the impact will be in the future, the 500,000 alone is a windfall, equivalent to several years of hard work. It is a huge sum of money. Sina's senior management, human resources, and finance have kept it confidential, and even the team members don't know about it until now. If I am irrational and piss off Sina, I'm afraid this matter will not be able to be concealed.

Xu Bin lowered his head and pondered for a while. He figured out his current situation and realized that he had to leave Sina. He stood up and said to the human resources director, "I will call a meeting now and inform everyone of the company's decision."

The HR director nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. It's 3:30 pm now. Please notify them as soon as possible. I will arrange for someone to prepare the termination agreement and sign it with everyone at 5 o'clock."

Xu Bin hummed and said, "Well, you prepare an agreement now and I'll sign it first."

"it is good."

There is a fixed template for the termination agreement, and the HR director quickly prepared a termination agreement. Xu Bin took a look at it, immediately signed his name, and then turned and left the HR director's office.

After being released, Xu Bin had already accepted the fact that he was leaving Sina. Since he could not stay at Sina, he no longer felt angry or conflicted. No matter what, he had already earned the 500,000 yuan. He could just leave Sina and then slowly look for a job.

Back at the UC division, Xu Bin clapped his hands, attracted everyone's attention, and said, "Everyone, put aside your work and listen to me announce something."

The more than 80 people who came with him from Shenzhen, plus the dozen people originally from UC, a total of more than 100 people put down their work and looked at Xu Bin, waiting to hear what he would announce. However, the company has been facing such a big predicament recently, and it is estimated that it is not good news.

So Xu Bin cleared his throat and said briefly: "Everyone, from today on, UC will be completely disbanded. Everyone, including me, must complete the resignation procedures before the end of get off work today."

This one sentence plunged more than a hundred people into despair.

They cut down the plants right away without any hesitation. The decision was made and executed on the same day, without giving people a chance to react. It's hard to accept and makes me angry.

More than a hundred employees almost went wild in an instant, accusing the company of being unethical. Some even cursed on the spot, and those who could not bear it easily burst into tears.

Xu Bin discovered that more than one person was crying and holding his head in tears. These people were all his old subordinates who had followed him from Shenzhen.

It was indeed too cruel for them.

QQ was defeated by Haobo Technology, and they were suddenly unemployed. They finally came to Beijing with 1.3 times the previous salary, but the new company was defeated by Haobo Technology again so soon. They became unemployed again before they could even sit down, and in this strange city more than kilometers away.

But Xu Bin didn't know how to persuade them, and it was useless to persuade them. If Sina could give everyone more compensation, everyone might not be so sad. But Sina had invested so much money in UC, it was impossible to give more compensation.

At this time, some employees who had reacted asked: "Mr. Xu, how much compensation will the company give us if we fire us?"

This is the question Xu Bin dreads the most, but he has to answer it. "The company's compensation is based on the n+1 model. For those who have not worked for half a year, they can only get half a month's salary compensation."

More than eighty people who came from Shenzhen City became anxious in an instant.

Half a month's compensation? It's not even enough to cover the rent they've already paid! And they still have to continue looking for jobs in Beijing, and they don't know how long the window of time will be. What can half a month's salary compensation do?

Faced with so many angry questions from his subordinates, Xu Bin pushed all the blame on the company: "It's no use yelling at me. I have to get out just like you, and I can only get half a month's salary as compensation. If you have any objections, you can talk to the HR department."

Someone suddenly stood up and yelled, "Damn it, let's go and have a good talk with the HR department! Half a month's salary, this is going to drive me to death!"

"Yes, go and talk to the HR department! Why are they only giving me half a month's compensation?"

"We will never accept this compensation standard!"

"If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation today, I will eat and live here from now on and rely on it forever!"

Before Xu Bin had a chance to persuade them, someone took the lead and walked out. This set off a powder keg, and the rest of the people followed angrily. More than a hundred people rushed to the Human Resources Department with cursing and noise, and the entire Sina was in chaos.

Seeing the situation getting out of control, Xu Bin's heart skipped a beat and he quickly figured out the situation. First, he made it clear that he had received the signing fee without the whole department knowing about it. Secondly, he had deliberately broken off the cooperation with Haobo Technology in order to get the signing fee and had described Haobo Technology in a bad light, so he brought these eighty people to join Sina. Now that Sina has cut off the UC business unit, they will definitely regret not joining Haobo Technology. If they knew that they were the instigator, they would definitely vent their anger on him.

But now the situation is out of control, with so many people going to the HR department to seek explanations, the HR department will definitely sell itself out in the face of employee doubts. Anyway, this is the last value, and it would be a waste if not used. Moreover, once used, the criticism can be turned to themselves, so they will definitely use it.

After figuring this out, Xu Bin immediately rushed into his office, picked up his computer, and then quickly left the company.

A bunch of former QQ employees rushed into the HR department, blocking the HR director's office. They angrily questioned, insulted, and threatened him, demanding an explanation. The HR director was no pushover, and remained calm even when surrounded by so many people. "What conditions do you have? We can discuss it."

An employee representative said angrily: "The company can fire us if it wants, but they should at least give us three months' salary as compensation!"

"Three months is impossible." The HR director said word by word, "The state stipulates that for people like you who come from Shenzhen, the company will compensate you half a month's salary after you leave."

"Half a month? Damn it, you guys are such a rip-off! You tricked us all the way from Shenzhen City, and you want to send us away with half a month's salary? Don't even think about it!"

The HR director frowned and asked, "When did the company lie to you? We made an offer, and you accepted it on your own. Did we force you?"

"What did you promise Mr. Xu in the beginning? Did you tell Mr. Xu that UC could be unprofitable for one or two years as long as it could gain a firm foothold in the market? Now that the product has not even been launched, you are going to disband the team?"

The HR director immediately retorted: "We have never said this to Xu Bin. I don't know how Xu Bin told you, but there is one thing I want you to understand. At the beginning, we only promised Xu Bin that if he could bring a team of more than 80 people to join Sina, we would give him a signing fee of 500,000 yuan. This money will be paid the week you join the company!"

"My grass!"

More than 80 former QQ employees who followed Xu Bin from Shenzhen to join Sina felt unprecedented anger at this moment.

It would have been fine if Sina treated them impartially and without mercy, but who would have thought there was such a big hidden secret. No wonder when everyone was struggling over whether to join Sina or Haobo Technology, Xu Bin encouraged everyone to join Sina and deliberately spoke highly of Haobo Technology. It turned out that he wanted to get Sina's signing fee!

More than eighty people were betrayed by him and joined such an unreliable company. They had to pack up and leave before they could even get comfortable in the company. However, he became the biggest winner, making half a million dollars in just one or two months!

The indignant employees were so furious that they were about to go find Xu Bin to confront him, but there was no sign of Xu Bin anywhere.

At this moment, Xu Bin had already left Sina in his newly bought car. Although he felt a little guilty and didn't know how to face these old colleagues in the future, he changed his mind and realized that everyone was in trouble now, so how could he have the energy to think about others? Anyway, he had already signed the termination agreement and would not have to come to Sina anymore. Moreover, he had already received the money, bought a house and a car, and this was the real thing. It was worth it even if he was scolded by those old colleagues.

Now Xu Bin left early without saying a word, and the more than 80 people collapsed instantly. They had come all the way here and saw that everyone was in trouble, but the leader slipped away, and even took their head fees and ran away!

Five hundred thousand! More than eighty people, each of them was sold for six thousand yuan!

Being sold out by him would have been fine, but at the critical moment he just slipped away without even saying goodbye. This was too hurtful. The dismissal of more than 80 people was already unacceptable to them, and Xu Bin's betrayal made them even more desperate.

More than eighty employees united and refused to sign the termination agreement, trying to put pressure on Sina. Their demand was that Sina must compensate them with two months' salary before they signed and left. However, Sina's human resources director told them: According to legal provisions, if the company wants to fire an employee who has not worked for half a year, as long as it gives thirty days' notice in advance or compensates them with half a month's salary, Sina can unilaterally terminate the contract even if they do not sign. As long as all wages are settled and half a month's compensation is settled in accordance with regulations, it will be useless for these employees to apply for arbitration. Sina's approach is reasonable and legal.

Therefore, Sina issued an ultimatum to these more than 80 people, requiring them to complete the handover and leave before the end of the get off work day, otherwise the company would call the police.

More than eighty people were abandoned at once, and pessimism spread throughout the department. Everyone gathered together, looking sad and sighing.

Some people called friends and classmates who are lawyers to ask whether Sina's approach was reasonable and legal, and the answers they received were all affirmative. The labor law's support for employees' personal interests depends on the number of years the employees have worked in the company. For those like them who have not worked for half a year, they can only get half a month's compensation.

After consulting many people, they all got the same answer. As a result, these more than 80 people decided not to get involved with Sina anymore. They signed the handover documents and resigned in a very depressed manner as required by Sina.

The HR department helped them complete all the formalities. Seeing that they were no longer making trouble and their emotions had calmed down, the HR director said to the 80-odd people, "If you don't want to leave now, then wait until after get off work."

More than 80 people really didn't want to leave in a large group at this time, and wanted to wait until after get off work so that it would not be so abrupt.

After the HR director left, the eighty-odd people gathered together, some standing, some leaning, forming a circle, sighing and lamenting to each other.

Someone sighed and said, "We didn't expect to be tricked by Xu Bin. We trusted him so much, but he sold us out and left without even saying goodbye!"

Someone responded, "Forget it. It's useless to scold him now. He is obviously guilty and will avoid us in the future. The most important thing for us right now is to think about what to do next."

"What should I do? Just find a job, what else can I do."

"Hey, I want to go back to Shenzhen. Anyway, the environment in Shenzhen is better than that in Beijing."

"Forget it, I don't want to go back. Let's look for it in Beijing."

"Yes, there are more Internet companies in Beijing, and there are more job opportunities."

"But our two failed work experiences at Tencent and Sina are really not worth mentioning. After working for so many years, we can't still be paid a rookie salary, right?"

"No choice, the newbie salary is the newbie salary, let's eat first..."

It wasn’t someone who said, “Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have gone to Haobo Technology. Although the money is not as much as Xinlang, it is more stable!”

Someone responded: "What's the point of talking about this now?"

Someone else said, "Contact Lu Nan. Maybe Haobo Technology is still willing to hire us?"

Some people said: "Forget it. Sina only gave in under the pressure of Haobo Technology. Maybe Haobo Technology is just taking revenge on us. How could they accept us?"

"Ask Lu Nan. It won't hurt to ask. After all, it would be best for us to enter Haobo Technology right now."

This statement was agreed by everyone. For them, they should have joined Haobo Technology when Lu Nan recruited them. In that way, whether it was work or life, everything could move forward steadily. Sina's abandonment of UC also further proved the strength of Haobo Technology. If there is another opportunity to join Haobo Technology, I am afraid that none of these more than 80 people will refuse, and they will definitely work hard and will not be misled by people like Xu Bin.

So, among the more than 80 people, a programmer who was close to Lu Nan took the initiative to stand up and said, "I'll send Lu Nan a message and ask him now!"

……

Lu Nan has been performing very well at work recently. Ever since Ruan Yun joined Haobo Technology and the two reconciled, Lu Nan has shown a strong desire to improve himself and his work has been going more and more smoothly.

The former QQ employees who followed Lu Nan to join Haobo Technology have already adapted to Haobo Technology and are very satisfied with the work here. During this period, Lu Nan and these colleagues have also said privately that Sina will probably not be able to hold on soon and will cut off UC. At that time, the more than 80 colleagues will probably be unemployed again.

Several subordinates also asked Lu Nan. After all, he was the only one who had direct contact with Zhou Hao. He should know whether Zhou Hao was still interested in the old team. If he was, maybe after Sina cut off UC, he could accept these old colleagues again.

But Lu Nan was not sure. The key was that Xu Bin had gone too far the last time he met Zhou Hao. Zhou Hao was the CEO of a company with a net worth of billions, but Xu Bin played tricks on Zhou Hao. He didn't want to discuss cooperation with Zhou Hao at all. If he were in his place, he would also be furious.

So Lu Nan did not go to Zhou Hao for confirmation. After all, he had caused Zhou Hao too much trouble. The gap between him and him was too big, so it was not appropriate to always look for him.

However, Lu Nan did not expect that Sina would cut UC so quickly. He received a message from an old colleague while he was still at work: the UC team had been disbanded, everyone had signed termination agreements, and Xu Bin had also run away, probably because he was afraid to face everyone after the news of his taking a signing fee of 500,000 yuan was exposed.

Lu Nan was shocked. He thought Sina would be able to hold on for a while longer, but he didn't expect that they would back down after Haobo Technology had only blocked them for three days.

Then, those old colleagues asked him again: Now everyone wants to ask if there is still a chance to join Haobo Technology?

I heard that Xu Bin took a large signing fee and sneaked away at the critical moment. I was very angry. So many people followed him so far, hoping to have a good development under his leadership, but they didn't expect to be sold out by him. Now more than 80 people are unemployed shortly after arriving in Beijing, which is really infuriating.

Lu Nan also wanted them to join Haobo Technology. On the one hand, it could provide them with a stable working environment. On the other hand, the company was constantly expanding its technical team and had more and more product lines. The arrival of more than 80 technical talents could increase the company's technical research and development capabilities. In particular, they had rich experience in the field of instant messaging and could get started right away.

So Lu Nan decided to talk to his leader about the matter again and do his part for his former colleagues.

Lu Nan said in the group: "Don't worry, everyone. I will report to our leaders and try my best to get everyone an opportunity to join Haobo Technology."
