Chapter 133 Pre-contact
In the business conference room of the Four Seasons Hotel, Mark adjusted his tie a little nervously on the leisure deck used for waiting outside, and looked at Holly, Jason, Susan, and the three beside him, hoping to find the eyes of his companions and get There was an encouraging look at each other, but only Jason and Holly looked at Mark, and Susan focused and calmly flipped through a high school textbook in her hand, reading and writing.
"You like reminiscing about your high school life recently?" Jason glanced at Susan's file and asked, "Where's Tommy? Isn't he coming to join us?"
Susan looked at Jason with a calm face, and shook her head: "I don't like to recall life, but I like to recall knowledge. As for Tommy, maybe he is already in it now."
"He's already inside?" Jason stood up and looked at the closed door dissatisfied: "Hey, shutting a charming silver-haired lawyer and a **** inside alone? Do you know what will happen?"
Mark whispered: "What you wish could happen for Tommy?"
"I'm just worried that Tommy's bastard, coupled with that lawyer lady, may be able to help the United States create a brand new species, which biologists will call: the unscrupulous." Jason looked at the three of them. :
"Also, I hope that I can replace Tommy so that the words don't reach the ears of my three girlfriends..."
"It sounds like you're selling software for Actor's company, far less than helping yourself find girlfriends. Jason, you only sold more than 10,000 sets of software, but you found three girlfriends." The elevator door opened, and Tommy came out, accompanied by Sophia and two assistants from the White Shoes Club, just in time to hear Jason's last words.
Jason looked at Susan, and then at Tommy Hawk who was walking in formal attire like the four of them at the moment: "Actually, if you count the temporary ones, there are about seven to eight. The girls in my hometown, Since knowing that I have transformed into the founder of the company, he has shown great enthusiasm for me."
"As a brother, I only hope that you calmly use Torjan to block their enthusiasm, otherwise, you will **** wait for those women's enthusiasm to turn into bills, and it will hit on time every month like a blizzard." Tommy looked at Jia Sen, said with a smile:
"That's why I never touch country girls. Those girls understand the importance of just having a baby and having an extra wallet for the next eighteen years to improve their quality of life."
Jason thought for a few seconds, looked up at Tommy: "Maybe I should have listened to you then, so what's your usual remedy for this kind of thing as a jerk?"
"That's not the point of discussion today." Tommy looked at the others: "I'll go in first, and you can let Sophia and the others do some basic knowledge popularization first."
After finishing speaking, Tommy walked towards the meeting room. Jason stared at Tommy suspiciously, then followed Tommy and pushed open the door of the meeting room, ready to tease Tommy and Delia for being alone: "I Know what you're going to do first, man, you're alone with that silver-haired lawyer... Shit~"
The door of the meeting room was pushed open for a moment, and Jason was speechless: "...I blamed you, buddy, I will go to popularize knowledge first, and if you are in trouble, please call for help."
After speaking, Jason turned around and fled back to his seat.
Delia, who was sitting in front of the head of the conference table, looked at Jason's scurrying figure, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Jason, we don't bite."
In front of the long table in the conference room, there were more than a dozen men and women in suits and leather shoes sitting around. At this time, their eyes were fixed on Tommy Hawk who was walking in like prey. Tommy looked at everyone with a calm face: "I have a meeting this afternoon. It's a compulsory course, and I'm sorry that I didn't meet you until the evening."
Several people outside the door watched as Tommy took his seat, and the door of the conference room was closed from the inside.
"Shit! The moment I opened the door, I thought these people would come forward and eat Tommy and me." Jason said in shock, "You didn't notice the eyes of those people..."
"Let me explain the current situation. Lotus has sent an application for obtaining written evidence. This application is asking us to cooperate with the court and submit investigation reports related to the case to Lotus. The behavior allowed by the court, of course, at the same time, we can also ask for the evidence related to the case held by one of them, and the two parties complete the exchange of evidence and testimony to judge the direction of the other party's investigation against us and analyze the current situation we are in. According to the current situation, the employer will give a judgment on whether to continue the lawsuit, apply for mediation, or simply reconcile the two parties." Sophia explained to the few people who were a little shocked by the scene just now:
"Of course, as those who participate in the daily operations of Actor Company, if there is no real reason, you will inevitably attend the first formal contact between the two parties. That kind of contact is not that you imagine that you will be accompanied by your own lawyer and leave the question to the lawyer. In the simple scene of the answer, there will indeed be a lawyer present, but at the same time, relevant personnel in the court will also observe and record. Pressure, so we have to conduct an internal discussion meeting first, so that everyone can get used to this atmosphere first. Anything you say at the meeting today will not appear in court, so you don’t have to worry about being caught by loopholes and sued, but when You say the wrong thing, the lawyer stops and tells you, the next time you don't say that, you better listen to the lawyer."
Another assistant of the White Shoes Club looked at Jason and said, "The internal discussion is just a pre-dinner dessert. The formal contact between the two parties is the main meal. At that time, you will not only see what is called cannibalism in the eyes, but you will also see the other side's lawyer's eyes." I understand what is called a language trap in the conversation. Today’s seminar is to let you experience it first. Lawyers have prepared many tricky questions that you can’t think of, and simulate the other party’s troubles. You must know that not all questions can be pushed to lawyers. Lawyers It can indeed help you, but there are many questions that you must answer yourself.”
"Tommy...Tommy doesn't need to popularize these things? Be mentally prepared in advance?" Mark looked at Sophia and asked a question: "I mean there are so many lawyers inside, why did he go in directly?"
"That guy doesn't need to worry about his mental problems when he does anything, because he is no longer a human being in his heart." Jason said to Mark.
"I'm ready." Susan took a deep breath, stood up and looked at Sophia: "Can I go in now?"
Sophia nodded in surprise: "Of course."
"Don't let Tommy laugh at us for being inferior to girls, Mark, let's go in too." Jason took a few deep breaths: "As long as those **** don't ask me the same question as Tommy asked me just now, I won't worry... No wonder That guy would rather borrow money than have Torjan on a date every time! Seven women had my baby...f*ck!"
Holly also stood up: "Let's go, Actor Company seems to have never had a rule that women can enjoy privileges."
…
"Mr. Tommy Hawk, I would like to ask, what made you decide to develop OSS, a software that already has many similar products on the market?" A middle-aged male lawyer stared at the man sitting at the long table. Tommy Hawke asked.
Tommy looked back at the other party calmly, smiled and asked, "What do you mean by multiple similar products?"
Susan, Holly, Jason, Mark, and even Sophia who was in the audience frowned slightly. In their opinion, Tommy should briefly explain the original intention of developing the software and stop quickly instead of deriving other problems. Let the opposing lawyer find more opportunities to attack.
"WordStar, Lotus1-2-3, Visicarl, these softwares have the same functions as OSS. If the data in my hand is not wrong, they are all listed earlier than OSS." The lawyer immediately said, kicking the problem to Tommy again .
Tommy crossed his fingers on the table and said in a calm tone, "What is the definition of a similar product? According to the U.S. commodity law, if more than 75% of similar products are similar, they are called similar products. Tell me, besides OSS, there are other similar products on the market. Is there any other similar software that has the functions of electronic documents and spreadsheets at the same time? According to the definition of similar products, even if OSS is exactly the same as the spreadsheet of Lotus1-2-3, from the perspective of the entire product, only 50% of the functions are similar, which is completely enough. You're asking the wrong question, sir."
"Mr. Tommy Hawk, you just said that even if OSS is exactly the same as Lotus 1-2-3, does this mean that you got development ideas from Lotus software before developing OSS, and we understand that before developing OSS, you I bought most of the commercial office software in the world." Another lawyer immediately asked Tommy.
"I don't admit that they are exactly the same, but I don't deny that I got development ideas from Lotus and other software. I even decided to develop an office software after I saw and studied the spreadsheet function of Lotus." Tang Mi thought for a moment, and then said confidently after he thought he had figured out the other party's question.
Jason and the others sighed, and all lowered their heads. The lawyer who asked the question also looked at Delia. According to their agreement, Delia should stop at this time and tell Tommy the standard answer to this question.
But Delia didn't stop, and the lawyer could only speak directly to Delia: "Delia, if Mr. Tommy Hawke gives this kind of answer when contacting, I think you should realize that it's very important to you." The other party is definitely good news, because we will need to spend a lot of time and effort to prove to the court that OSS has not been affected by Lotus."
Delia nodded: "According to the normal process, after this question is asked, what will it be?"
"If our lawyer who attended the meeting that day is not a fool, we should use the clause at this time to prevent Tommy from continuing to answer any subsequent questions thrown by the other party." The lawyer said to Delia.
Delia nodded: "Very well, Tommy, you have caused a lot of trouble now. In order to protect Actor and prevent you from causing further trouble, the lawyer will suspend your speech and let you rest on the grounds of Title 18 of the United States Code. The court The hearing officer will agree, but please note that he will truthfully record your reaction, which is enough to make the court, jurors and the other party think that you are guilty, and the other party is likely to ask the court to arrange a hearing for you to dig deeper on this issue , to expand the crack, so don’t think that you can escape for a while, and you will be safe and secure.”
"Thank you lawyers, I'll leave first, Susan, it's up to you." Tommy stood up, straightened his suit, patted Susan on the shoulder next to him, and then looked at the other three: "You too."
"I thought you were going to kill the Quartet, man, but you're out after five questions?" Jason asked Tommy, "But don't worry, I'll make it to the end."
Delia also got up, and said to the other members of the legal team: "Continue to ask other people, Sophia, take over from me and listen."
Afterwards, she walked out of the conference hall with Tommy. Tommy took out a cigarette and lit it, and asked Delia, "Do you think this answer will make the other party think it's good news?"
"No, you have no secrets to Lotus now. The other party already knows your means, so I don't think the other party will be fooled by what you said." Delia said to Tommy with a serious expression:
"You have to go to the guest room with me, and I will teach you how to act in front of the audience."
…
In the city-view suite on the fifth floor of the Four Seasons Hotel, the hotel attendant was cleaning the sheets and bedding while looking towards the living room from time to time.
The age gap between the two men and women is quite large. Of course, this is not a problem. After all, this is California, where even a 40-year-old high school female teacher elopes to Mexico with a 16-year-old high school student to get married and have children. .
What surprised the waiter was that these two people were dressed in aura, and they looked like the kind of rich people, but when she was called by the phone to clean the room, she felt like cleaning a battlefield, a gentle and gentle sunshine The youth, a middle-aged lady who looks elegant and majestic, is obviously like a rabbit in rut in Australia, and it is an absolutely fierce battle here.
"Sir, the room has been cleaned." After changing the bedding and cleaning up the garbage, the waiter in a vest came out and said to Tommy with a smile.
Tommy fumbled in his pocket, then picked up Delia's handbag, took out a few small bills and handed them to the waiter: "Thank you, here is your tip."
"Thank you." The waiter took the generous tip, and after identifying Tommy as a cowherd in his heart, he said thank you, turned around and left the suite with a trolley.
Tommy walked to the bar in the living room, looked at the various drinks in the wine cabinet, and said, "Ma'am, I just tipped the other party with the change in your wallet. You can count this money in the investigation fee. Send the bill to Actor Corporation."
"Generally young people would like to be more tender, but you are just the opposite." Delia stood in the bathroom, put on lipstick, and said to Tommy Hawke: "You can't wait for the other party to treat you as an **** when you get dressed , I just want to stay away from you."
Tommy poured two glasses of whiskey and said in his mouth: "When I accompany my girlfriend, I usually have more tenderness, because a man and a woman in love need tenderness and companionship, but other women don't need it. For me, the best bed My partner is a high-class girl, she doesn't know who I am, doesn't care who I am, and I don't know who the other party is, every time I open the hotel room, I only know that there will be a woman with a delicate face and a good figure waiting inside She will help me relieve my energy, after I relieve, she will leave sweetly, I don’t need to say anything to coax her, I only need to pay her four hundred yuan.”
"So you often let those high-class girls accompany you?" Delia put down her lipstick, looked at herself in the mirror, and asked while arranging her clothes.
"On the contrary, that's just my beautiful fantasy. Except for my girlfriend Renee who is temporarily separated from me, I only have Holly as a partner to maintain a bed relationship. Uh... now there is one more you who taught me acting skills, Delia- Ms. Keith, of course, only this time, I guess I will never be fooled by you in the future." Tommy opened the refrigerator, took out a piece of ice from it, picked up the bartender's tool, and slowly polished it Ice cubes, said in his mouth.
After finishing her makeup, Delia came out, stood opposite Tommy across the bar, picked up a cigarette and lit it: "Only middle-aged people like the kind of life you just said, vent the pressure on other people, and put the pressure on others." Leave warmth to relatives, those fresh graduates I knew before would subconsciously warm up to me, but in fact, that kind of tenderness will only touch them and annoy me."
"Sophia said you've been divorced for a long time." Tommy sculpted the hockey puck that was gradually taking shape, and asked with a smile on his mouth, "Because your husband discovered you because you taught children how to act?"
Delia breathed out a puff of smoke, and said in a normal tone: "It's not long, two years, and it's not because of this kind of thing. I have received invitations from many headhunting companies, and many firms hope that I will join and become their senior partner or even As the executive partner, he thinks I should go, because the remuneration offered is more than the current income, the workload will be greatly reduced, and retirement life can be planned in advance, but when I joined Davis Polk back then, but In order to become the second Elisabeth-Mig, why did I have to work **** myself for so long if it was only to make more money? So there was a disagreement, and then there was a quarrel, and finally I taught him a deep lesson, it is you If you have a lawyer wife, you'd better never argue with her."
"You are a general partner now, and there is still a long way to go before you become a senior partner or an administrative partner." Tommy shook the ice crumbs on his hand, put the ice ball into the wine glass, and handed it to Di Leah: "I guess you may not plan to remarry for ten years."
Delia took it and took a sip: "To be honest, it's still very pleasant to chat with young people who are as mature as myself. Unfortunately, when most children really reach maturity, their physical strength has already appeared. OK, let's talk about it." Tell me about your acting skills?"
"I guess the technique you taught me must not be the method I taught Susan in the meeting room just now." Tommy simply added a few pieces of ice to his wine glass, held it up, and looked at Delia.
Delia put the wine glass to her lips, looked at Tommy with a smile, and kept that smile for a few seconds before she said in an appreciative tone, "You want Susan Curtis to mislead him?"
"As you said, I don't have any privacy with Lotus. The success rate of letting the other party disagree is not too high. No one is an idiot. Mark's psychological quality is not very good. Holly's performance before was that she was well-spoken and thoughtful, and the other party would pay attention to this. Jason is actually a happy young man, and the mistake of speaking out loud is most suitable for him, but because he is my roommate, If even this important issue is not explained well, the other side will not believe that our lawyer is negligent and will only aggravate suspicion, so Susan is the best choice under the current situation." Tommy put his wine glass with Dilly Ya touched her wine glass:
"A woman who has no higher education, has done cheap skin business, and has never seen a big scene, even if she is instructed by a lawyer, she will not change her conversation habits in a short period of time. The other party's lawyer may bet on her. What I say is unbelievable. When she says it, the other party may think it is a chance to win. Most importantly, I bet those lawyers have never dealt with cheap prostitutes like Susan. They will only have stereotypes. But I don’t know, they can withstand stronger pressure, for example, they can deliberately mislead them under their serial questioning.”
"But now there is a problem. Our investigators haven't opened the mouths of Lotus employees. They don't know anything about Lotus 1-2-3's update plan. What you do is likely to backfire. If the other party..." Di When Leah heard Tommy talking about work, she habitually put away her smile, but when she saw Tommy's expression of being ready to be beaten again and teaching her to be a man after she finished speaking, she immediately realized:
"You want Susan to pretend to be a slip of the tongue, not only to say that OSS was affected by Lotus 1-2-3 during the development period, but also to make the other party guess based on her words, inferring that we already know the subsequent software update arrangement of Lotus, and we are going to submit it to The court proved that the update of Lotus 1-2-3 was affected by OSS, you want to return the problems that the other party threw to us, and return them completely, and based on their reaction, judge whether their determination is to settle or continue the trial.”
Tommy nodded: "That's it."
"I guess you rely on alcohol to fall asleep every night." Delia looked down at the liquid in her glass, as if asking a completely unrelated question: "I know college students like to drink some alcohol, but they do it for Drinking for pleasure, not for fatigue."
Tommy shook his head: "No, I don't drink too much, I rely on sleeping pills, I only sleep for five hours a day, and I must ensure five hours of deep sleep, so that I have the energy to deal with various things the next day. Looking at it, sleep aids that are less harmful to the body are a good choice."
"Every time I'm in front of you, it always seems to give me a sense of frustration that I have worked hard to help my employer, but I haven't really provided effective help." Delia sighed and looked at Tommy with a look of regret. Said: "It seems that I can only guide Susan."
Tommy turned his head away to avoid Delia's gaze, as if he was too lazy to respond to the other party's words, but he turned back after a few seconds: "The mentoring Susan you mentioned is definitely a serious mentoring, right? You didn't just lie to me The kind that comes to the guest room?"
"Then what do you think of this kind of guidance? In order to express my regret for not being able to help you, I can guide you again, and you can continue to use my money to pay the tip for the waiter." Delia winked at Tommy eyes and said:
"I sometimes feel guilty when I sleep with those children, but for you, I don't feel guilty at all."
"Of course it's not very good. Both of them want to go whoring for nothing. What pleasure can there be in letting a man and woman who work hard for each other do this kind of thing, ma'am?" Tommy laughed and talked about what happened to the two just now:
"I want you to move, you want me to move, in the end it depends on tossing a coin to decide who will move, even in this kind of thing, I want to take advantage of the other party, and I am the one who loses the coin toss, guess what? What a good memory to have about that."
Delia smacked her lips exaggeratedly on purpose: "It's heartless, I remember you didn't say that when you grabbed my hair before, **** Tommy."
"At that time I was disheveled, but now I have my pants on, ma'am, you should pay attention to the occasion when you speak." Tommy said solemnly:
"Please call me Sage Tommy."
…
Jim Manz was sitting in front of the conference table, with one arm pressed against the table, his body obliquely facing Mickey, Jonathan and several other heads of various departments of the Lotus company who were looking at him at this time.
"I know that you all seem to be a little unaccustomed recently. It seems that you all have a question. We are the plaintiffs, but why does it feel as if we have done something wrong and become a murderer? There are always people outside who accuse us of cruelty and inhumanity. I did The worst thing is probably just skipping class and playing games, why?... Forgive me for not being able to tell you what a lawsuit is in detail, you just need to understand that the kind of cases you see on TV that distinguish between good and evil are criminal cases, In addition, there is no good or bad in any lawsuit. It is just a confrontation. When we say that Actor has copied us, we need to tell the judge how they copied, and they are the same. They have to prove that they have not copied, and then there is a midfielder. During the break, everyone sat down and chatted in a friendly manner to see what evidence each other has received." Jim stroked his hair with one hand, and said a little irritably:
"What I want to say is the precautions you need to know during the halftime break of this match. What I will say next is not aimed at you, but about the employees under you."
"What do you want to say? Jim?" Jonathan couldn't bear Jim's nonsense meeting style, and asked directly: "You have said so much, we still don't know what you want to say. These people had a meeting before, Nobody comes up and says too much that isn't relevant."
"Lotus company is a zoo. You and I are administrators, and your employees are all animals. Do you understand?" Jim just smiled at Jonathan's interruption of his behavior, ignored it, and continued to say to everyone:
"Sometimes, the animals you manage are very affectionate to you and play with you, but sometimes they get out of control and bite off the **** of the administrators."
"Jim, don't keep making jokes that you think are funny. The people here don't care about Eggs, and they can't catch your laugh." Mickey also opened his mouth a little bit dumbfounded, trying to correct Jim's words: "And, Those words are not very respectful to the employees."
Jim stood up and looked around the crowd: "Don't believe that after signing the non-disclosure agreement, the employees are really tight-lipped. I hope you can observe the recent performance of your subordinates. If you feel any strange behavior, you can contact me and I will arrange it. The lawyer contacted him, and then another question, we will have an out-of-court contact with Actor Company, although many people present may not be present, but I still need your attention, spend at least half an hour a day to go to the company meeting The office accepts the guidance of the lawyer, and to sum it up, just don’t talk nonsense, understand? Don’t talk nonsense, this is very important.”
"OK, everyone, let's go to work first. If there is an important meeting, we will arrange for you to come over." Seeing Jim's movements, Jonathan quickly signaled other colleagues to leave, and then looked at Jim with a embarrassed expression: "Jim, you Calling these people in just to say this? It’s disrespectful to them, you’re telling them straight up that the company doesn’t trust them.”
Jim spread his hands: "Jonathan, what makes you feel that the world is full of trust? They are employees. You have to tell them what they can do and what they can't do, just like providing a comfortable working environment. , the generous salary will only turn them into spoiled pets in the end, and they will think that they are the masters of the company. I asked the lawyer to advise the various departments on what issues to pay attention to in the near future, but the feedback from the lawyer is that no one Would love to hear him speak."
"They are just technicians, not spies." Jonathan folded his hands on his waist and said dissatisfied to Jim: "Why would they betray Lotus for a small company they have never heard of? You don't think this idea is ridiculous Is it, Jim?"
Jim sighed: "Jonathan, the other party is indeed a small company, but the person in charge of the other party is not a nerd, but a **** like me, a villain with the name of a software company, he is not you and Mickey, he is simply in the garage. Type in the code, if you must find a word to describe this small company, you can call it gray knight, white knight and black knight are easy to understand. In business activities, well-intentioned investors are called white knights or white warriors, and vice versa Malicious investors are called black knights or black warriors."
"So, what is a Gray Knight?" Jonathan asked.
Jim lit a cigarette: "Spoilers, even lunatics who can lose their own interests in order to achieve their goals, sometimes look like a savior, sometimes look like a devil, the most terrible thing is that the two appear at the same time, generally this kind of behavior Unscrupulous companies whose style is between black and white are called gray knights."
"What is the purpose of the gray knight?" Mickey asked curiously when he heard these business names.
"This is the difficulty. If we don't touch it once, we don't know what the purpose of this gray lunatic is." Jim looked at Jonathan:
"It will find ways to collect all kinds of information that it thinks can cause trouble for us. Just imagine, it can even arrange for prostitutes to harass you. Why doesn't it arrange for people to find ways to get close to engineers in key positions? Don't think that illegally obtained information Will not appear in court, believe me, lawyers know better than you, how to make what they get appear in front of the judge, you think there is a confidentiality agreement, employees can't betray the company when facing sky-high liquidated damages, but what about anonymity? An anonymous employee voted for the newspaper, and the newspaper published Lotus's code or recent business plan...Of course, those are issues that other employees need to consider. The question for you two is, if after the first contact, if you consider reconciliation between the two parties, how do you do it? look."
Jonathan stared: "Reconciliation? You mean reconciliation? We were harassed by prostitutes to a nervous breakdown..."
"What will the other party pay?" Mitch interrupted Jonathan.
"Acquiring it or investing in it, this is my opinion. First of all, the other company's software has sold more than 40,000 sets, which shows that they have done a good job. Anyway, our business expansion will also involve acquisitions. It is better to acquire it. , after buying it, according to my thinking, whether it is a trap, bait, or just my guess, at least we don’t have to worry about it anymore, but we can cooperate with each other to see if we can use the same trick to set a trap, When MicroPort was brought in, Robert said that the other party was trying to set a precedent. If there is such a plan, cooperation is the best choice. It just happens to use the other party to bite the egg of MicroPort. At that time..." Jim said Thinking of his guess about Tommy Hawk, he couldn't help but beam with joy, but he didn't notice that both Mickey and Jonathan looked a little ugly.
Jonathan said angrily: "That guy insulted us, even if the reconciliation should be paid by the other party! But what you are saying now is that we will pay him a sum of money to buy his company that copied us? Jim, what are you drinking? How much wine did you drink to say that."
"When he insulted you, it was because he regarded us as opponents. As long as we reconcile and cooperate, he will soon help us insult our competitors. I don't think there is anything worthy of anger." Jim put away his expression and looked at Jonathan:
"We have to avoid crises and not get angry because of small things. I often get angry, but that is against opponents who have no strength to fight back. If the opponent is strong enough, I will not cause trouble. If the opponent has the opportunity to become my partner, I will even Smiling faces, that's what grown-ups do, Jonathan."
"I don't agree to reconciliation, Lotus will not reconcile with this kind of thing!" Jonathan said angrily.
Mickey, who has never spoken, comforted his companion at this time: "Jonathan, Jim didn't say that there must be a reconciliation, he just said that he would try to get in touch with the other party."
"That's right, this is just my opinion. I didn't expect you to be excited, Jonathan." Jim also explained along the way: "You can speak out if you have different opinions."
"Jim, let him think about it. He's not in a good mood recently, and I'm the same, and you know why." Mitch sighed, looked at Jim and said, "The other party's disgusting methods have made us a little bit exhausted."
Jim nodded in understanding, turned and walked out of the meeting room.
After he left, Jonathan looked at Mickey: "He asked us to buy that small company with a sum of money... And he promised us that that small company could help us get rid of Minimally Invasive? God, the worst thing I've heard in these years An exaggerated joke, he should understand that Lotus has the strength to beat MicroPort, and there is no need for such lame excuses to attract us."
"Trust Jim, Jonathan, at least until we find a professional manager who really understands the computer industry and won't be full of foul language, trust him." Mitch patted Jonathan on the shoulder and comforted him softly.
Nine thousand words, three chapters combined into one chapter, I am too lazy to divide chapters, please bear with me, fortunately, although there are no chapters, I am not lazy, I will keep updating if I have nothing to do, and develop a good habit.
