The richest man Yang Fei

It's a pity that even if he is scolded, Ma Zhixia has to stand firm in front of the foreign management, and said sincerely: "Mr. Smith, isn't our natural soap powder selling well? We use Beihua The distribution channels of the second factory, as well as our company's own channels, have sold natural soap powder all over the country. It won't take long for us to win the market from Jiebai!"

"What? Are you still trying to compete for the market?" Smith took out a fax and dropped it on the table in front of Ma Zhixia, "You can read it for yourself! It's all written in Chinese, I believe you can understand it. "

Ma Zhixia was full of doubts, picked up the fax document and looked, it turned out to be a lawyer's letter, which was also sent by Meili Daily Chemical Factory!

The letter clearly stated: "This law firm is entrusted by Nanfang Meili Daily Chemical Factory, and the client's original words are as follows: I have learned that your company has used the patented technology registered by our company without our authorization. The formula and process used in the production of natural soap powder are consistent with our company. Please stop the relevant infringement immediately, if not, our company will investigate your legal responsibility according to law. Please also know that natural soap powder has become our company Registered trademarks, without permission, any similar enterprises are not allowed to use without authorization. In addition: attach a copy of our company's patented technology and registered trademarks. This law firm will fully represent this lawsuit. Please receive this letter three times Within [-] working days, terminate all infringement activities, and take the initiative to compensate the illegal profits obtained from the infringement, and also need to pay the infringement fees of Meili Daily Chemical Factory. Otherwise, this law firm will sue on its behalf. Sincerely.”

Ma Zhixia read it twice quickly, and there were ten thousand muddy horses galloping past in his heart!

Yang Fei not only sued him, but also sued his new employer!

I always thought that Yang Fei was laughing and joking, like a big boy next door, occasionally playing a bit of awe, but I didn't think it was so great. I didn't expect him to be a little more scary than a tiger!

Ma Zhixia was sweating coldly, and the hand holding the fax trembled slightly.

Smith put his hands on the edge of the table and said loudly: "Give me an explanation? Why are there so many patented technologies? The most absurd thing is that they have even registered trademarks! Why didn't you say it before? "

Ma Zhixia took a hard breath and said, "Mr. Smith, I didn't know in advance that Yang Fei had applied for patents for these technologies, and I didn't know that he had registered this trademark. I really didn't know."

Smith stared at him coldly: "Aren't you the vice president of research and development in Meili Daily Chemical Factory? Why don't you even know such an important thing?"

"I'm only in charge of research and development. Yang Fei is a very cunning person, and no one else trusts him except himself." When Yang Fei was mentioned, Ma Zhixia hated it.

"Impossible! Did he go to apply for a patent and register a trademark in person?" Smith said, "Don't take me for a fool! What do we do now? Can you tell me? We came to your country Doing business is already very difficult, we are honest and decent businessmen, and we don’t want to get involved in any lawsuits, any lawsuits are very detrimental to our multinational corporations!”

Ma Zhixia wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, only to find that the sweat was bubbling again just as he wiped it off.

"Mr. Smith, Yang Fei is pulling a tiger's skin as a banner to scare people! They have no evidence at all to prove that I stole their technology and craftsmanship!" Ma Zhixia quickly calmed down and said, "If they had evidence, they would have sued us, instead of just sending two lawyer letters."

"Huh?" After being furious, Smith also began to think about the solution, and said after hearing the words, "Are you sure?"

Ma Zhixia said: "I'm sure they have no evidence. Because what I took away was not the original, and no one searched me when I left the factory. If they sue, we will say that the technology was developed by ourselves. Take Procter & Gamble Isn’t it easy for such a large multinational company to develop a natural soap powder?”

Smith's frown was relaxed: "However, we still have to take risks."

Ma Zhixia said: "Also, as for the trademark of natural soap powder, if they are really registered, we don't have to use it. We can change it to call it natural soap powder. If you add one more word, it can't be regarded as infringement. And before The matter of fraudulent use can be completely discussed, because we didn’t know that they had registered before. Even if we go to court, we are justified. At worst, we should pay him a little money, and he can’t do anything to us. The laws of our country, for sure It is to protect foreign-funded enterprises, please rest assured Mr. Smith."

Smith took a long breath and nodded: "Mr. Ma, you are right. I was overwhelmed by anger just now. I shouldn't lose my temper with you. Your contribution to our company, we We all know it. It was just an internal dispute, so don’t take it to heart.”

Ma Zhixia smiled wryly, thinking that you are the boss, you can do whatever you say, what else can I do?Made!

Smith came out from behind the desk and patted Ma Zhixia's arm: "This lawsuit is very detrimental to our company. You must find a way to minimize the impact. It would be best if you can settle out of court. , Go to court, no matter what the result is, it is not what we want to see. Mr. Ma, you are familiar with Meili Daily Chemical, so I will leave this matter to you."

Ma Zhixia was full of bitterness, but he had nowhere to pour it. I knew them well, but would I still dare to contact Yang Fei?Do you still dare to ask them to be lenient?

At this time, the phone on Smith's desk rang.

He picked up the phone to answer it, and at the same time signaled Ma Zhixia to go out first.

Ma Zhixia turned his head and left. Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door, he was called back by Smith again.

"Mr. Ma, please don't leave!" Smith said with a serious face, "An accident happened again! Our natural soap powder is constantly receiving complaints from consumers!"

Chapter 375 Itchy

Ma Zhixia said indifferently: "Consumer complaints? That's nothing. Yang Fei's white laundry detergent often receives complaints. Some are vexatious, and some are trying to extort money. Even if there is a problem, just deal with it properly."

Smith looked strange, and slowly put down the microphone: "It's not a few complaints, nor dozens or hundreds of complaints, but countless complaints! Many, many, understand?"

Ma Zhixia shuddered all over, feeling that something was wrong, and quickly asked, "What's going on? What's the content of the complaint?"

Smith leisurely spit out two words: "Bad quality."

Ma Zhixia said: "It's impossible. The batches of natural soap powder we produced are for the purpose of expanding the market and competing for market share. All the raw materials provided by BASF are used. With the global reputation of BASF, There's no way they're going to give us a defective product."

Smith said: "There is no problem with the raw materials, and there is no problem with the control of the production process. I trust my employees. So, where is the problem? Is it the formula?"

Ma Zhixia was once again suspected by Smith, so she couldn't help but blushed, and said, "The formula? That's impossible to go wrong. Yang Fei is using this formula! I dare to guarantee it with my personality!"

Smith frowned: "Oh, Mr. Ma, I don't question you, but can you tell me what the problem is?"

"I'll check it out now." Ma Zhixia said, "I'll definitely find out."

Smith spread his hands: "We are running out of time, Mr. Ma, the call just now was not from our after-sales service, but from the National Quality Inspection Bureau. Consumers have already complained to the Quality Inspection Bureau. The quantity is still large.”

Ma Zhixia was shocked: "How can these consumers do this? There won't be any trouble, right?"

Smith tapped his forehead with his hand: "It's a lot of trouble. Of course we need to find the reason, and find out right away! In addition, all our natural soap powder can no longer be sold. We will notify all dealers and take them off the shelves and return them to the factory."

"Mr. Smith, do we have to do this? Our loss will be huge." Ma Zhixia finds it incomprehensible to Smith's decision. , we can improve the next batch.”

"No, I don't think so. Our company is not a small business. We are a world-renowned company. The reputation of the brand is more important than making money. If you lose tens of millions, you can make it back, but it takes a few dollars to establish a good brand image. A hundred million won’t necessarily lead to success.” Smith waved his hand forcefully, “This batch of questionable soap powder must be taken off the shelves and returned to the factory.”

Ma Zhixia said: "Mr. Smith, I have a suggestion that can reduce the company's losses."

Smith asked, "What's your suggestion? At this time, you don't want to be a joke, just speak up."

Ma Zhixia said: "We can sell this batch of soap powder to counties, towns and rural areas. People there are not too particular about buying things, as long as they are cheap. We can sell them to backward areas, and we can definitely sell them at cost prices. .”

Smith didn't even think about it, so he vetoed it: "I must never sell a product with a problem to consumers! I have a bottom line in what I do. Mr. Ma, go and find out what the problem is right away. I want the result! Other things, I'll take care of them, ok?"

Ma Zhixia nodded in agreement, and walked out, thinking that the foreigner really has a solid eye and a tendon!Tens of millions of goods, just return to the factory for scrapping?Obviously it can be sold to the countryside!

He didn't have the heart to worry about Smith anymore, he wanted to find out the reason for the poor quality of the soap powder as soon as possible.

Back in the office, Ma Zhixia called Luo Hongcai, his most capable assistant, over and explained what happened just now.

Luo Hongcai pushed his glasses, and said in surprise: "Impossible, the formula and process are all right, the raw materials and machines are the same as those of Meili Daily Chemical Factory, they are all imported, it is impossible to be worse than theirs."

Ma Zhixia said: "The higher authorities didn't give us much time, we must find out the reason as soon as possible."

Luo Hongcai said, "I'll take the soap powder to the laboratory."

Ma Zhixia said: "Don't use this batch of powder from the factory. Now there is a problem with the batch on the market. You send someone to the supermarket outside to buy back a few bags for analysis."

Luo Hong only responded and left.

Ma Zhixia sat on the chair and pondered for a long time, but couldn't figure it out, what was the problem?

He never dreamed that Yang Fei would tamper with the formula technology, and he did it very covertly, which caught him off guard and made him hard to think about it.

At this moment, Yang Fei is by the hot spring pool, enjoying the beauty of spring.

Jiang Xiaojia and Fuwa came back. She was holding a large bouquet of azaleas in her hands. She picked the flowers with her hands and stuffed them into her mouth, eating with gusto.

Jiang Xiaojia refused to eat flowers at first, but under Fuwa's repeated gluttonous demonstrations, she started to try it for the first time, and then she couldn't control it, and fell in love with the sweet and fragrant taste of azalea.

"Brother Yang Fei, it turns out that these flowers are edible!" Jiang Xiaojia picked off a piece and handed it to Yang Fei as if he had discovered a new world. "You can eat it after washing it in mountain spring water!"
