Chapter 11
Chapter 11 — Fire the Wrong Person, the Whole Company Pays
“You saw what happened at the product announcement.”
“The whole industry knows about his patent tampering.”
“Now the only thing he can do…”
“It's pulling more people into the water with you.”
“You follow him…”
“It's like turning yourself into a shield.”
Tieu Ton's face immediately turned red.
“Miss Lam… so I…”
“Withdraw your resignation.”
"I'll handle your matter."
Tieu Ton stood up and nodded vigorously.
“Thank you, Ms. Lam.”
After he left, Phuong Dinh came closer.
“What about Tieu Wei?”
“I will look too.”
“But compared to that…”
“There's something more important.”
“Tran Hao used his classmate's company to recruit people.”
“This kind of thing…”
"It's impossible for To Dao not to know."
“Even…”
“Maybe she was the one connecting the wires.”
Phuong Dinh's face changed immediately.
“What do you mean…”
“To Dao always helps Tran Hao?”
“She is not helping Tran Hao.”
“She's helping herself.”
“Just possibly weakening my voice in the company…”
“She can do anything.”
I opened my computer and pulled out a file.
“This is the business registration information of Nhuan Cam company.”
“Look at the list of shareholders.”
Phuong Dinh bent down to look. Three seconds later, she took a sharp breath of cold air.
“To Dao's husband?!”
"That's right."
“Nhuan Cam's third largest shareholder is her husband.”
“Tran Hao thought he was asking his classmates for help.”
“But actually…”
“He is helping To Dao's company dig into Hoa Nhan's technical corner.”
Phuong Dinh's mouth opened for a long time but could not close.
“This woman…”
“That's why I said…”
“Don't rush.”
“Just let the bullet fly a little longer.”
The next morning, I printed out all the business registration information of Nhuan Cam company on paper. Put it in your file. Lock in drawer. It's not yet time to act. But there are a few things... You can start making arrangements in advance. I invited Ha Van to dinner. The location is a quiet restaurant in the heart of the city. When I arrived, he was already waiting.
“I finally waited for the day you agreed to meet me.”
He smiled and stood up, pulling out a chair for me. I sat down and got straight to the point.
“General Manager Ha.”
“I know Thinh Hoa is always looking for personnel to research the core formula.”
“The day you came to the product announcement…”
“Not simply for professional exchange.”
Ha Van raised the cup of tea and slowly took a sip.
“Miss Lam is a very direct person.”
“My conditions are also very clear.”
“Currently, the work in Hoa Nhan has not ended yet.”
“But if I leave later…”
“I need a platform that allows me to research independently.”
“Thinh Hoa can give you that.”
“I know Thinh Hoa can do it.”
“But what I want is more than just a platform.”
“I want all the intellectual property of the formula to belong to me.”
“I want independent project approval authority.”
“The team was also built by myself.”
Ha Van put down the teacup and looked at me for a few seconds.
“Your demands are not low.”
“Because I deserve it.”
He laughed.
“The day at the product announcement, her performance on stage made our entire research center re-watch the livestream no less than three times.”
“Honestly…”
“Before coming here, I reported your situation to the general manager.”
“His exact words that is…”
'This person absolutely cannot be taken away by his opponent.'
“So the conditions you proposed…”
“In principle I can agree.”
“But we need to go through the process.”
“About two weeks.”
I nodded.
“No rush.”
“I told you…”
“The story in Hoa Nhan is not over yet.”
“Is it about Tran Hao?”
“It's not just Tran Hao.”
Ha Van looked at me, waiting for me to continue.
“There is still one person in Hoa Nhan…”
“Much harder to deal with than him.”
I looked at him a little surprised.
“General Manager Ha is really good at news.”
“Doing this job…”
"If you don't have intelligence, you can't live."
He put down his chopsticks.
“I once learned about To Dao.”
“Her reputation in the industry is not good.”
“But very good at building relationships.”
“After you return to the company…”
“Be careful with that kind of person.”
“She won't confront you directly.”
“But will try to strike from the side.”
"I know."
“If you need any support from Thinh Hoa…”
I shook my head.
“Not needed for now.”
“This…”
“I handle it myself.”
Leaving the restaurant, I stood on the side of the road for a while. The night wind blew along the end of the coming street. Hoa Nhan's story... is about to enter the final stage. But before that… I still need a chance. An opportunity for everyone to be present.
