Chapter 10 — Fired in the middle of a livestream, a year later I made the whole company go bankrupt
Dad, I'm sorry. I can't watch you grow up. Dad left these things... Not for you to take revenge. But so that I have the right to know the truth. If one day... I stand tall enough. Let's take back what belongs to us." The date of signing... It was twenty-eight years ago. Exactly three months after I was born. I put the letter down. Didn't cry. But the bridge of my nose...
"I will take all these documents away."
"It's time."
"I have to get justice for dad."
Come home. I spent the entire afternoon reading each file in an old leather briefcase. The more I read... The more chills I felt down my spine. That year, the core terms of the betting agreement between Thanh Nguyen Khoa Ky and the investors were clearly stated.
"If within one year the revenue does not meet the target, the founder will automatically transfer all shares."
The clause itself... There is no problem. The scary thing is that... Financial data has been modified. Actually. Revenue that year completely met the target. But the Finance Director at that time made two sets of books. One set is real data. One set is fake data. What was given to the auditing unit... It was a fake set. Until the last day of the betting period. My dad just found out. But then... The arbitration council's decision was issued. He once sued. But in hand... There is no longer any original evidence. What made me even colder was... After the incident. That Chief Financial Officer joined Chu Boi Nguyen's new company. Hold the position of Deputy General Director. The annual salary is up to 10,000,000 yuan. Among the documents my father gave his life to keep. There is one thing... Enough to become fatal evidence. Original documents used to falsify books. It's a paper copy. Above is still the signature of the Chief Financial Officer. Same original company seal. If we bring this document to court today... Whether the verdict can be overturned or not... remains to be seen. At least it was enough to tear apart the perfect shell that Chu Boi Nguyen had built for twenty-eight years. I took photos of all the documents. Then send it to a lawyer. Include exactly one sentence.
"Help me check whether the commercial fraud that occurred twenty-eight years ago is still prosecuted or not."
The lawyer responded very quickly.
"The statute of limitations for bringing civil lawsuits for commercial fraud has certain limits."
"But if the case involves criminal liability..."
"For example, the act of falsifying financial data..."
"It could potentially constitute a crime."
"Further evaluation is needed."
I put down the phone. Heart rate is a little faster than normal. If you want to do this... You can't be in a hurry. It has to be step by step. First. I must walk firmly on the path under my feet. Tinh Ha is still at an important stage of development. The labor lawsuit with Tinh Dieu has not yet had a final decision. I cannot open two fronts at the same time. Otherwise... The first person to be pulled down will be me. The seed has already been sown. Chu Boi Nguyen. You just wait. Three months after I joined Tinh Ha. The number of daily active users of the official platform exceeds 30,000,000. Revenue from cooperation with brands increased by 210% compared to the previous month. In a company-wide meeting. Tong Di Tham announced.
"Star River officially begins raising Series B capital round."
"Pricing target..."
"15,000,000,000 yuan."
After the meeting ends. He kept me there.
"There's something I need to tell you in advance."
"I heard."
"We intend for Sequoia to lead this funding round."
"But last week."
"There's an investment fund stepping in."
"The valuation they offered was 20% higher than Sequoia."
"Conditions are also better."
I asked immediately.
"Thanh Nguyen Fund."
"The investment fund is personally controlled by Chu Boi Nguyen."
My spine immediately tensed. Tong Di Tham looked at my reaction. Ask no more. Just speak calmly.
"I know you have a grudge against him."
I raised my head.
"What do you mean?"
"I did a background check."
"The story of your father..."
"I know."
I quietly looked at him. Since when did you investigate? Why investigate? Tong Di Tham said calmly.
"As a partner of the company."
"You have the right to participate in deciding the capital call round."
"If you object to the Thanh Nguyen Foundation participating..."
"I can refuse this investment."
"What if I refuse?"
"The capital raising progress will be about two to three months slow."
"It's not a matter of survival."
"It will create an opportunity for competitors to get ahead."
