"What's the lawsuit? Who is the one who doesn't have a long eye to sue?"
Gu Jue frowned fiercely, and opened his mouth to curse.
Nearly half of the designs they sent to Zeguang were mixed sales, and I heard that some auctioneers noticed the clue and complained before.
It's just that the other party was easily 'persuaded' to retreat by the person in charge of Zeguang and Lingyu.
Recently, the cooperation between Lingyu Design and Zeguang Auction has expired.
"What does he do? Use the usual rhetoric to block that person's mouth! If you really can't control it, just go to our warehouse and add a few real ingredients."
Gu Jue took it for granted and gave a solution, and said impatiently to the employees of the legal department, "I can't solve this trivial matter, so I hurriedly came to me after I got a court summons? What does the company raise you for? ?"
Gu Jue smelled the aroma on Secretary Su Su's body, and couldn't help but circle her tighter, "You might as well be the new Susu who can handle affairs and be liked."
The director of the operations department and the staff of the legal department looked at each other—they saw through the contempt in each other’s eyes—
With a boss like this, their company is really doomed!
The staff member approached with the court summons and spoke without any emotion, "Mr. Gu, not a single buyer sued, but a total of 14 buyers jointly sued our design products for adulteration and sale. ."
"..."
Gu Jue was stunned, obviously not responding from the number 'fourteen'.
There are only about 20 pieces of real and fake designs that they sell. How can more than half of people notice it at the same time and sue quickly? This is impossible!
The employee of the legal department continued, "The other party sued us Lingyu Design and Zeguang Auction at the same time, suing us for fraud, because the total amount of the auction of 14 buyers is as high as 70 million, and the accompanying civil lawsuit requires us to compensate— Four hundred million."
"My God!"
Secretary Su Su heard the huge compensation and couldn't help but exclaimed.
Gu Jue was irritated by her noise, and pushed her away without mercy, "Get out!"
Susu was thrown on the edge of the sofa by surprise, and fell from heaven to hell in seconds. She met the subtle eyes of the other two employees, and her whole body was red-faced and ran away immediately.
Gu Jue turned pale, glanced at the subpoena handed by the employee, and then tore it to pieces in anger, "These shameless people!"
"But with a few fake beads from him, how embarrassing the lion is to ask us to compensate for this amount?"
Seeing that Gu Jue's sense of morality was so weak, the employees of the Legal Department felt even more displeased.
Buyers defend their legitimate interests, but Gu Jue and Lingyu Design have done something wrong, and now they blame the buyers for being unkind
If it weren't for him holding Lingyu's salary, he would want to blow Gu Jue's head at this moment.
"Mr. Gu, if the court finds that our design products are adulterated and constitute fraud, even if the amount of compensation can be reduced, this responsibility..."
According to the relevant regulations, even if the Lingyu design is only mixed with fake jade, the amount added by the fourteen buyers is not to be underestimated, and it is already a huge amount.
Before the words were finished, the director of the operation department spoke with the news he had just received, "Mr. Gu, the matter of our adulteration and being jointly prosecuted was also exposed by the media."
Gu Jue wanted to touch the phone in his pocket, but it took a few seconds to realize that it had been broken by himself.
He breathed boldly and said to the head of the operations department, "...show it to me!"
The director of the operations department handed over his mobile page. The news was sent fifteen minutes ago, and the title was particularly exaggerated—“Lingyu design has been adulterated and sold for a long time, and the amount involved has reached 400 million!”
"What kind of bullshit and unscrupulous media?" Before Gu Jue's sanity was completely swallowed up by anger, he suddenly clenched his phone tightly.
Adulterated sales for a long time? The amount involved - 400 million
Obviously there is only a problem with the auction design, but such a title can easily cause panic among ordinary customers!
The most terrible thing is that the 'black material' that has been exposed to the Lingyu design is far more than this one.
These media seem to be controlled by others at the same time, and they have collected all the negative news of Gu Jue Management Company in the past few years, and broke it out at one time.
The superposition of such layers of negative news will have a huge impact on the company.
The head of the operations department asked cautiously, "Mr. Gu, what should we do now? Should we contact these media first and spend money to remove these online messages?"
Otherwise, it is useless for them to withdraw the news when the timeliness-passes, the dissemination intensity-disperses.
Gu Jue rubbed the temple that was beginning to swell and whispered—yes.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the legal department employee who was still standing there, and he asked again, "If you prosecute this matter, what is the most serious responsibility?"
"Sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of more than 10 years, or even life imprisonment, compensation of fines, and confiscation of company property in serious cases."
Gu Jue's heart sank to the bottom.
Lingyu finally got a little better. If it really ends up in this situation, wouldn't it be a waste of money and people
No, these things—the chain of events—must be controlled by someone behind the scenes!
Who is it
A name suddenly flashed across Gu Jue's mind.
In the next second, someone rushed in in a panic, "Mr. Gu, it's not good! Just now, the forest factory called and said that our private factory was brought by the relevant departments and blocked."
The private factory they used for pickling and injection of jadeite is not affiliated with Lingyu, but has a special supply chain. How could there be a problem at this time
House seemingly endless rain.
The employee who just ran into the door did not give Gu Jue any time to think and continued.
"Mr. Gu, the security guard just called in and said that four or five media reporters have gathered at the door one after another, and they want you to come forward and explain the revelations online."
"..."
Gu Jue was silent for a while, and only choked out a few words, "Shi Yunnan! You're ruthless!"
Besides this person, who else could hold his lifeline in a short period of time
Gu Jue only felt that the headache was getting worse and worse, and there was a vague feeling in his heart—a bad feeling—
I have been messing around with the glossy packaging designed by Lingyu for so long, and now it is finally overturned
…
Twenty days later.
Yuan Rui saw the text message sent by Zheng Yan, and he almost jumped up from the spot happily. He hurriedly walked into his friend's independent design studio, "Yunnan, are you done? I want to share with you a piece of news that can make you laugh."
Shi Yunnan stopped the new design draft that he was about to complete, leaned on the office chair and raised his head, "Look at you, is it about Gu Jue and Lingyu's design?"
Yuan Rui snapped his fingers and directly handed him his cell phone, "Brother Zheng, didn't they sue Lingyu and Zeguang? As the court was about to start, Zeguang 'counter-sued' again. "
Zeguang Auction House sued Lingyu Design for deceiving them to conduct auction transactions, thus damaging the legitimate interests of their auction company and causing loss of reputation.
In the face of interests, it is common for a dog to bite a dog.
Yuan Ruile asked humbly, "I see, Gu Jue and Lingyu are going to make a big deal this time. Those compensation payments will bring their company to the brink of bankruptcy, right?"
"Don't wait, Lingyu can't hold it anymore."
Because of the chain exposure of 'adulterated sale' and other news, the situation - after fermentation, Lingyu's online and offline customers rolled up - a 'return and refund' craze.
Not to mention Lingyuxin - the quarterly, subtle imitations of their studio's designs have all smashed the inventory, and even the accessories that have been sold for a long time, netizens have gone online to complain and ask for refunds.
Few companies can withstand such a toss, let alone Lingyu Design, which was originally 'removing the east wall to make up the west wall' under the leadership of Gu Jue.
"Yuan Rui, you can try to contact some old employees of Lingyu."
Although it is said that a leader like Gu Jue will indirectly affect the work mentality of the employees, perhaps the unpolished and hidden jade can still be picked out of the pile of stones.
"At the beginning, Lingyu pryed our corner, and now it's our turn to treat others with the way of others."
Yuan Rui heard his friend's suggestion and couldn't help but stammered again, "What are you talking about? I've arranged it a long time ago, and indeed I can still find two or three good employees."
"By the way, some designers like Yang Sen wanted to contact me a few days ago, but I didn't agree..."
At first I looked down on their studio, and now I want to come back, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world
Shi Yunnan smiled and accepted the chatter of his friend, and subconsciously pressed the back button of his mobile phone, and exited the WeChat chat interface with Zheng Yan.
He didn't realize Yuan Rui's mobile phone until he caught sight of the top WeChat avatar and chat messages.
Shi Yunnan immediately returned the phone, "Yuan Rui, sorry, I exited the chat interface as my phone."
"What's the matter? It doesn't matter."
Yuan Rui obviously didn't realize the meaning of Shi Yunnan's apology, so he just put the phone back in his pocket.
Shi Yunnan saw the subtle change in his eyes, and the WeChat interface he just saw appeared in his mind unconsciously.
The avatar on the top is a pure white box, and the remark is the word 'shige'. The chat message of that-line stayed eight minutes ago, and there is only a simple and soft-sentence-
"Brother, can you stop being mad at me?"
Obviously, Yuan Rui sent it to Lu Zhaoan.
"Why didn't you speak suddenly?" Yuan Rui waved his hand in front of Shi Yunnan, teasing, "Isn't it because of Mr. Luo? When did he come back from abroad?"
"About seven or eight days."
Shi Yunnan put away those thoughts and did not deliberately mention the content of WeChat that he accidentally caught.
As an outsider, Shi Yunnan could perceive Yuan Rui's deep-rooted dependence on Lu Zhao'an.
Some things may be the scars hidden in a friend's heart, and he doesn't want to casually mention, touch, or hurt.
"By the way, have you packed your things? We're going to Jingshi the day after tomorrow." Shi Yunnan changed the subject.
Inspired by foreign jade porcelain exhibitions, he plans to study the content of porcelain to see if it can be reasonably applied to future jade ornament designs.
This time, he successively designated Dehua County in Jing City and Fu City for a half-month field investigation. Because Luo Lingsheng was away, Shi Yunnan had to find Yuan Rui to go with him.
Yuan Rui suddenly showed excitement, "It's no nonsense, don't forget that the hotel was arranged by me."
Shi Yunnan smiled, "That's fine, I won't be here tomorrow, and I'll meet at the airport the day after tomorrow?"
"no problem."
…
Shi Yunnan and Yuan Rui had been in Jingshi enough for a week, so they continued to rush to Fushi according to the original plan.
Yuan Rui put down his luggage and stretched, and said in a comfortable voice, "It really is a city near the sea. It feels like a sea of seafood when you get off the plane."
Shi Yunnan smiled and walked forward to the exit, "What kind of dog nose are you?"
"Hey, don't believe it, this atmosphere is clearly different from our imperial capital..."
Yuan Rui followed him and said, the two of them—they heard the sound of calling—
"Uncle!"
Shi Yunnan almost thought he had hallucinations.
He hurriedly looked towards the source of the sound, only to find that there was a large-small figure less than ten meters away from the exit.
Luo Lingsheng sat quietly in the wheelchair, while the little goldfish was jumping on the side with a small satchel and a small hat on his back.
Seeing that Shi Yunan found them, the little goldfish quickly waved and jumped, "Little uncle! Here and here!"
Yuan Rui was stunned, "I'll go, isn't this Mr. Luo? Yun Nan..."
Shi Yunnan didn't listen to his friend's words, and left his luggage and ran over.
The little goldfish hurriedly ran up and opened his hands to beg for a hug, but he didn't expect Shi Yunnan to pass him and rushed straight in front of Luo Lingsheng, confirming the authenticity of this face without saying a word.
Luo Lingsheng stroked the side of his neck and asked with a smile, "Don't know me?"
Shi Yunnan approached and quickly kissed Luo Lingsheng, couldn't help but chuckled, "Who are you borrowing any door from? When I called you two days ago, didn't you tell me to go back to China and wait for me at home?"
Luo Lingsheng was delighted by the short kiss just now, and felt that this trip was not in vain, "I don't want to interrupt your work, and I don't want to waste the time we can spend together."
At the end of the first rehabilitation cycle, there are only ten days of back and forth as a rest for adjustment.
Shi Yunnan was originally scheduled to stay in Fuzhou for about a week, Luo Lingsheng thought about it, and the first thing after landing in the Imperial Capital was to buy a plane ticket to Fuzhou.
"The little goldfish was spoiled by you, and you insisted that I come along." Luo Lingsheng added another sentence.
No, uncles and nephews are here, their flight is half an hour earlier than Shi Yunan and Yuan Rui, so they are just waiting here.
When Shi Yunnan heard the name of 'Little Goldfish', he suddenly remembered his little nephew who had just been ignored by him.
He turned around quickly, and saw the little goldfish pouting a small mouth and complaining glumly, "Humph! Little uncle only likes uncle, and doesn't like me anymore!"
Shi Yunnan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly picked him up, "Nonsense, I miss our little goldfish the most these two days."
The little goldfish was instantly coaxed into a happy mood, and hugged Shi Yunnan's neck and refused to let go, "Little uncle, I miss you the most too!"
Yuan Rui came up with Shi Yunan's luggage, and looked at the little goldfish with interest, "Yunnan, who is this kid? This little chubby looks quite funny."
Shi Yunnan squeezed the soft milk fat of the little goldfish and deliberately teased his friend, "Come on, this is your brother, did you find it? Both of you have the same size?"
The implication is that Yuan Rui is regarded as a son again.
Yuan Rui snorted, "Stop doing this, where do I have milk fat? It's gone 800 years ago."
Only the little goldfish believed it and called out obediently, "Hello, brother."
"..."
Suddenly, Yuan Rui, who was downgraded, was speechless.
Shi Yunnan was amused by the 'two sons' and couldn't help blinking at Luo Lingsheng next to him, the exhaustion of the past few days was swept away at this moment.
Yuan Rui glanced at the time, and asked Luo Lingsheng cautiously, "Mr. Luo, have you settled on a place to live?"
Their destination tonight is Dehua County, and they are still four hours away from the Fushi Airport. It is estimated that it will be late when they arrive there.
Because it is a county seat and there are no high-star hotels, Yuan Rui found a local B&B with relatively high ratings and distinctive features, which was approved by Shi Yunan.
"Yunnan reported the homestay address to me before, and I asked Qin Jian to reserve an additional room."
Because it is not the peak season, the room of the homestay is still very good to book.
Although Luo Lingsheng was picky about the accommodation conditions, he didn't want to disrupt Shi Yunnan's original work plan because of this. This trip, he should take the little goldfish out to play, or stay in a unique homestay.
Yuan Rui nodded, "That's good."
"I asked Qin Jian to book the car in advance. He and Yuan Meng just went to pick up the car. Let's wait for them outside?" Luo Lingsheng said.
Shi Yunan and Yuan Rui looked at each other and nodded in unison.
"Yeah! Go out and play!" Only the little goldfish was especially excited.
Since meeting Shi Yunnan, he has completely released his playful nature.
Luo Lingsheng had nothing to do with his little nephew. Fortunately, Little Goldfish was only in the middle class of kindergarten.
"Let's go, Qin Jian and the others should be back soon."
"good."
…
Yuan Meng and Qin Jian took turns driving, and it took the pedestrians almost four and a half hours to reach their destination tonight.
Yuan Rui is still very reliable. The environment and sanitation of the B&B he booked are very good. In order to take care of the little goldfish, Shi Yunnan and Luo Lingsheng stayed in a family room.
Under Qin Jian's instructing in advance, the boss also prepared a sumptuous dinner.
Yuan Rui chose to go out for a stroll after dinner.
Facing the sincere invitation from his friend, Shi Yunnan chose 'return to the family' without hesitation, waved his hand and followed Luo Lingsheng and the little goldfish back to the room.
in the bathroom.
Shi Yunnan looked at the little goldfish splashing around in the bathtub and said with a smile, "I'll let you make trouble for a while, and you'll be obedient in ten minutes, okay?"
It's not good to take a bath for too long, and it's not good to have a cold water.
The little goldfish had foam on its nose, and nodded cutely, "Okay."
Shi Yunnan didn't close the bathroom door, so as not to hear any movement from the little goldfish. He walked out of the bathroom and unexpectedly saw Luo Lingsheng resting his hands against the wall, moving slowly toward the bed.
Luo Lingsheng caught a glimpse of Shi Yunnan out of the corner of his eye, and he was distracted for a moment, and then his body's center of gravity shifted.
"Be careful!"
Shi Yunan approached quickly.
Fortunately, Luo Lingsheng adjusted his body position in time and fell on the bed very close.
Shi Yunnan quickly stabilized him, "Are you okay? Did you knock your leg?"
"fine."
Luo Lingsheng replied in a low voice, pressing his hands lightly on his legs.
Shi Yunnan let out a sigh of relief, but remembering the gesture of his lover just walking against the wall, an obvious look of joy appeared on his face, "Are your legs all right?"
Luo Lingsheng sighed and laughed, "It's not that fast. According to Dr. Bens's suggestion, it will take a long time for rehabilitation, and it's not clear how far the recovery will go."
It may be the beginning of good luck, or it may end up being only this one step.
After all, Luo Lingsheng has been in a wheelchair for several years, and his legs are definitely not as good as ordinary people, but compared to the previous situation of ignorance and powerlessness, it is indeed a rapid improvement now.
Shi Yunnan's smile widened, and he didn't say anything dejected, "It's good to be able to do this step. We have so much time, it's a big deal to waste it slowly."
Luo Lingsheng nodded and glanced at Shi Yunnan's empty ring finger.
Compared with the contentment of his lover, he still hopes that he can return to the best state as quickly as possible, preferably before the two people get the certificate - the anniversary.
Some things, he had already prepared.
He should wait until the right time to say some words that have been hidden for a long time.
Just thinking about it, the little goldfish's Ruan Nuo Nuo sound came from the bathroom, "Uncle, little uncle, I'm fine, but I didn't bring in the clothes."
Luo Lingsheng took the initiative to say, "I'll go get it for the little goldfish. I just saw that there is no drinking water in the room. Can you go downstairs to get some?"
"good."
Shi Yunnan readily agreed, got up and went downstairs.
The first floor of the B&B is an open-plan hall and kitchen. The owner is not there at the moment. Just as Shi Yunnan was about to search for the location of drinking water, he saw Yuan Ruimu walk in with a look on his face.
The two looked at each other.
Yuan Rui lost his usual energy and just twitched the corners of his mouth, "Yunnan, why aren't you in the room?"
"Go downstairs and get some water."
Shi Yunnan quickly approached him, worried and asked, "What's wrong? Isn't it okay to just go out?"
"I just... I seem to have seen my teacher... I saw Lu Zhaoan." Yuan Rui stammered, and then denied himself, "It's nothing, it's just a back, I must have read it wrong."
After all, before Yuan Rui returned to his senses, the man disappeared.
Yuan Rui spit out the turbid air in his chest. He was afraid of his friends' jokes, so he quickly pretended to be smiling indifferently, "Okay, I'm going back to my room to rest, I'm almost exhausted today."
"There seems to be a whole bottle of mineral water in the kitchen, go and have a look."
Shi Yunnan nodded silently.
After watching Yuan Rui's back figure leave, he took three bottles of mineral water and walked towards his room.
The family room is arranged in the innermost part of the second floor.
Shi Yunnan was walking when suddenly the lights in the corridor went out, and he fell into the darkness for no reason.
"..."
power cut
Shi Yunnan was stunned, instinctively resisting making his chest suddenly feel stuffy, and clenching the palm of his hand holding the mineral water bottle, the water bottle suddenly fell off.
Coincidentally, the water bottle smashed on the toes through the fabric of the disposable slippers, and a heavy dull pain came.
Shi Yunnan's eyes were shrouded in darkness, and he could not see the surroundings at all. In desperation, he could only squat down slowly along the original position, just like every time before—
Try to curl up and give yourself a sense of security.
Suddenly, there was a sound of a door opening in the darkness, and the light of the mobile phone was quickly revealed.
"Yunnan?"
Luo Lingsheng's tense voice was full of worry.
Shi Yunnan squinted his eyes and used the light to see who was coming at the end. He almost reacted at once, and ran over regardless.
Luo Lingsheng immediately put his lover in his arms, and while calming his nervous body with his hands, he kept whispering in his mouth, "It's okay, I'm here with you, it's probably just tripping."
"It's my fault, I shouldn't have asked you to fetch water... It was so dark just now, did you fall somewhere?"
Luo Lingsheng arrived just in time this time, Shi Yunnan stabilized his heart with a few words of comfort, and he cleared his throat, which was somewhat dry due to physiological reasons.
"I'm fine, just the mineral water was thrown on the ground."
As soon as the voice fell, the lights in the corridor returned to bright, and it was a temporary trip.
Luo Lingsheng observed Shi Yunnan's situation for a while, and after confirming that the other party's face was okay, he kissed his lips again, "It's fine, let's go back to the room."
He thought about it for a while, but persuaded, "Tomorrow, I'll go back to the hotel in the city, and the journey will be more than one hour."
Shi Yunnan nodded silently.
The door of the room that was hidden on the side was opened again.
The little goldfish came out holding his little quilt, and the fear in his eyes disappeared after seeing the two parents.
"Uncle, it's just getting dark."
The little goldfish belatedly complained.
What happened suddenly just now, Luo Lingsheng remembered Shi Yunnan's fear of the completely dark environment, so he had to temporarily leave his little nephew who had not fallen asleep, and controlled the wheelchair to drive out.
"It's alright, don't be afraid."
Shi Yunnan withdrew from Luo Lingsheng's arms, got up and rubbed the little goldfish's head.
The pain on his feet hadn't completely dissipated, he lowered his eyes and said casually, "Tsk, I was hit by a mineral water bottle just now, and my toes still hurt."
Luo Lingsheng frowned, and immediately took his hand, "Come in, I'll help you take a look."
He paused, "Jin Yu."
"Ah? Yes!"
The little goldfish opened his eyes wide, thinking that his uncle was deeply apologetic and wanted to say something comforting to him.
Luo Lingsheng asked, "Go and pick up the bottles of mineral water in the corridor."
The little goldfish made an "oh" sound. After the two uncles entered the house, he slowly went to pick up the mineral water bottle.
The little dumb hair on his head—shaking—shaking, seems to be swearing the true mood of the little goldfish—
snort!
Sure enough, the little uncle and the uncle are the most partial!
