When will I have a long tassel?

Jin Debiao said a few harsh words and left with his two subordinates. Wang Danhui forced out a smile, stood up and made a gesture of seeing off the guests. Sun Jie was low-key enough to send Jin Debiao and his entourage out of the company gate, and then hurried back to Wang Danhui's office.

"Sun Jie, what do you mean by what you just said? What do you mean we didn't think well enough?"

Before Sun Jie could say anything, Wang Danhui attacked her first. Just now, Sun Jie had robbed Wang Danhui of the conversation, so Wang Danhui was eager to take the place back. In fact, she knew very well that she was already a little confused at that moment. If Sun Jie hadn't come out to save her, she would have made many mistakes.

Sun Jie sneered in her heart, but with a sincere expression on her face: "Mr. Wang, can't you see, they are just looking for trouble. There is really a problem with our software delivery. The Industrial and Commercial Bureau is not a vegetarian, we I can’t afford to offend them.”

"Why can't you afford to offend me?" Wang Danhui choked. However, her words did not have much confidence. It was more like a mumbling than a rebuttal.

Sun Jie said: "Mr. Wang, you may have been staying in a foreign company. The Industrial and Commercial Bureau generally doesn't cause trouble to foreign companies, so you don't know much about the situation. When I was in a private company, any clerk from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau would come to him. Our boss will receive you personally and we will never dare to neglect you."

"But our Tuao is a foreign company." Wang Danhui said.

Sun Jie said: "The Industrial and Commercial Bureau will easily not find trouble with foreign companies, but that doesn't mean they can't find trouble with us. I guess this time it was Mr. Li..., uh, I mean, it was probably New Jingwei Company. came out. They must have found someone with authority to speak to, and the Industrial and Commercial Bureau is here to stand up for them."

"You mean, Li Kejia found someone and asked the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to cause trouble for us?" Wang Danhui understood what Sun Jie meant and asked with some uncertainty.

Sun Jie said: "Isn't this obvious? That Xiao Zhang said that the one who reported us was the New Jingwei Company. Director Jin said that we must correct the previous things, and there is no room for negotiation. This must be someone above. I said hello, otherwise they wouldn’t be so tough.”

Wang Danhui thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Your analysis makes sense. In fact, I also felt this just now. We both have the same view."

Bullshit consistent!

Sun Jie thought disdainfully, it's obvious that I told you everything, and you only thought of this, and you said you felt it too. Do you really think that just because you are the director of a foreign company, everyone will regard you as an elite? Now that you've offended the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, I'll see how you end up doing this.

"Sun Jie, what do you think we should do?" Wang Danhui asked Sun Jie for advice.

Sun Jie said: "In this matter, we have to ask the company's legal counsel first to see if what we did violated the Anti-Unfair Competition Law. If we really violated the law, I'm afraid we would have to sell all the software Taken back.”

"How can this be done?" Wang Danhui was anxious, "Take it back, how can we explain it to the headquarters?"

"Tell the truth." Sun Jie said disapprovingly, "We didn't know in advance that doing this would be illegal. Besides, the headquarters also agreed to this matter. No one took the change of situation into consideration, and the headquarters had no reason to blame us. "

If the headquarters wants to blame us, does it still need reason?

Wang Danhui thought depressedly.

Sun Jie came up with the idea of ​​giving away the software, but when Wang Danhui reported it to Kelun, she said that she came up with it herself and that it would be too difficult to shirk the blame now. Although this matter has been recognized by the headquarters, after all, I am the marketing director of China, and it is my responsibility to judge whether an act is compliant. I gave away 2,000 sets of software, only to find out that this was against the rules. What would the headquarters think of me?

At this point, there is no use regretting. Wang Danhui picked up the phone and contacted the legal consultant hired by the company. As soon as she explained the matter in this way, the legal consultant started to sigh on the other end of the phone:

"Director Wang, you should have asked me about this beforehand."

"What, Lawyer Guo, is this really illegal?" Wang Danhui asked anxiously.

Lawyer Guo sighed like a bellows: "Hey, Director Wang, you are also Chinese. Don't you understand what China's laws are about? In this matter, if you say it is not illegal, it is not illegal. But you want If you say it's illegal, then it's illegal. Now that the Industrial and Commercial Administration is coming to visit, even if it's not illegal, it still must be considered illegal."

"Lawyer Guo, why didn't I understand?" Wang Danhui felt like crying. It's all such a mess. Can't lawyers learn to speak human language?

Lawyer Guo obviously enjoys the feeling of stunning his clients, which is considered a necessary skill for lawyers. If the client understands everything, it will be very difficult for the lawyer to make a difference in the case. No one is sure of winning in a lawsuit. As a lawyer, you must make the client feel that the reason for losing the case is not that the lawyer is incompetent, but that the other party has a strong background, so that the client will not blame the lawyer.

"Tuao Company gave away 2,000 sets of software to users at one time. This went too far. Anyone can see that Tuao Company's purpose was to seize the market and squeeze out competitors. If the people don't do this, the officials will do it. It doesn't matter if we do it secretly. But once a competitor pursues it, it will be difficult for us to explain it."

Lawyer Guo said that what followed was a bunch of legal provisions, guidance opinions, precedents, etc., which made Wang Danhui dizzy. She only understood one thing, that is, there was a basis for the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to punish Tuao Company. Even if she wanted to If you go to court, your chances of winning are not good.

After hanging up the phone from Lawyer Guo, Wang Danhui took the receiver and began to hesitate. She wasn't sure whether to call Curran first or the various ministries that accepted the software.

Calling Curran meant that there was no room for maneuver on the matter. She could only take back the software and declare the operation completely bankrupt. What awaits her will be a dismissal letter from the headquarters.

Call the various ministries and there will be some room for relaxation. She could take the software back and secretly give it away to some small businesses as Lawyer Guo taught her. As long as it is not overly public and does not let the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and New Jingwei Company know the exact amount of the gift, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau will not be able to punish Tuao Company.

Didn’t Xiao Zhang say before that the reason why the Industrial and Commercial Bureau punished Tuao Company was that it gave away too many software and the amount was too high, which was beyond the scope of normal public relations activities. If the Industry and Commerce Bureau only has the gift numbers of 10 or 20 sets, then there is no reason to say that it is beyond the scope.

But if you do this, if the headquarters knows about it in the future, it will still deal with it. The headquarters allocates 2,000 sets of software quota in order to compete with Huaxia CAD for the most valuable customers. Can she say that small rural factories with 20 or 30 people are valuable customers?

"Sun Jie, do you think it would be better for us to take the software back first and then report it to the headquarters?" Wang Danhui was in a dilemma and asked Sun Jie.

Sun Jie didn't want to give Wang Danhui any advice this time. She spread her hands and said, "How do I know? Mr. Wang, it's up to you to make the decision on this matter."

"Well, you call Director Yang of the Mechanical Department and tell him that due to changes in company policy, the software that was originally planned to be given as a gift cannot be given away now. Please ask them to help take back the CD and serial number." Wang Danhui ordered. road.

"Mr. Wang, how do you tell the other party this kind of thing?" Sun Jie looked embarrassed.

Wang Danhui said: "You can say whatever you want. Those software were given to us for free. Now we can't give them away. We want to take them back. What's wrong?"

"Oh well……"

Sun Jie was also helpless. Who made Wang Danhui her immediate boss?

Yang Xueming, director of the Information Department of the Second Bureau of the Ministry of Machinery, answered the call from Sun Jie. He became angry after just a few sentences and shouted on the phone: "Miss Sun, your Director Wang must be sick! Such a thing cannot be done." If you can go back on your word, are you treating the affairs of our national ministries and commissions as child's play?"

Sun Jie was on speakerphone when she made the call. When Wang Danhui heard Yang Xueming's words, her face suddenly turned the color of pig liver. She had the intention to yell at the other person, "You have medicine," but at this point, she was asking for help from the other person, and it was really not appropriate to fall out with him.

Sun Jie saw Wang Danhui's expression and felt secretly happy. At the same time, she continued to say to Yang Xueming: "Director Yang, I'm really sorry. This matter is mainly because our headquarters has a new policy that requires offices around the world to We should uniformly stop giving away software, and we in China are no exception. Please understand our difficulties, Director Yang, and help us take back those software."

"I sympathize with your difficulties, have you ever sympathized with mine?" Yang Xueming's voice was still loud, showing an extremely angry look, "When you presented the software as a gift, you made lavish remarks and asked us to distribute the software as soon as possible. We haven't done anything serious in the past two weeks. We have been busy contacting various companies to distribute software.

"Some companies originally did not plan to introduce computer-aided drafting. We urged them to buy computers and promised to provide genuine software, so they decided to purchase computers. Now that everyone has bought computers, you want to take back the software. What will happen to those computers? As a decoration?"

"You can buy the genuine version..." Wang Danhui, who was listening in, subconsciously interjected, only to realize that her idea was silly and naive.

Yang Xueming sneered and said: "Humph, this was your original purpose, right? Under the guise of giving away software, when we started deploying, you also said that you would take back the software, so that you can force various companies to buy your genuine software. You guys Don’t you think this behavior is cheating?”

"No, no, Director Yang, please don't get me wrong. What we are talking about..., uh, does not necessarily mean buying our genuine software. What we are talking about is..." Sun Jie was suddenly stuck, and really didn't know what to do. Just say it.

Yang Xueming said in a cold tone: "Miss Sun, Director Wang, the software was given to you on your own initiative. We have signed a contract, so it is impossible for us to return the software. As for the requirements of your headquarters, it has nothing to do with us. goodbye!"
