Chapter 680: A Little Storm
On June 10, 1991, Eugene Kaspersky and his team arrived at the Moscow branch of the new venture group and signed an agreement to accept equity investment, as well as patent licensing and technology sharing.
Lin Qi didn't get started, but handed it over to Diana to operate, after all, in the future, business in Russia and Eastern Europe and other regions will still need Diana to do. At least, in terms of language and culture, Diana, a girl of mixed Chinese and Russian descent, has certain advantages.
Coupled with the clothing business in the past few years, Diana has also been reborn, and she has not learned much management, but she has first-class management ability.
Suddenly, the horn of a car outside the company sounded, and soon several tall hairy people, dressed in suits and leather shoes, with gloomy and terrible faces, broke in directly towards the door.
"Hello sir, do you have any expensive business, do you have an appointment?" The security guard at the door was suddenly alert, and these people looked like they were not good.
"Kimi, stand aside and don't get into trouble!"
There were about forty of the men at the head, who were not angry and arrogant, and threw a glance at it, and even the security guards were frightened and took a step back. The security guards of these Russian branches are only locally recruited veterans. However, they are just ordinary veterans, not very awesome talents, and the only advantage is that these people are not cowardly, and they dare to go up when they encounter trouble.
The security guard was not intimidated when he saw the people from KIMI, but he was quickly put to the ground by the other party's group.
Seeing that the people of KIMI Company were so arrogant, a group of Chinese suddenly walked out of the company's yard, that is, Lin Qi's personal bodyguards. These bodyguards looked at the pedestrian coldly, and even showed their firearms.
The people from Kimi's company immediately stopped, and those security guards were naturally ignored. But these Chinese, at first glance, are the elite of the elite, with weapons in their hands, which naturally makes these people stop using violence.
"I went to Eugene, Kaspersky Lab is Kimi's asset, and he has no right to sell and transfer technology. ”
The middle-aged man roared in a low voice, he did not intend to use force to solve it, and this was still under the chassis of a new business, and he did not want to recruit Yeltsin.
The commotion below quickly alarmed Lin Qi.
"Eugene, what's going on?" Lin Qi asked.
Eugene's face was a little ugly, hesitated, and said: "We originally worked under the banner of Kimi, but the patents on antivirus and computers do not belong to Kimi, but belong to Kaspersky Lab. To put it simply, we are only affiliated with the working relationship, and we are not really employees of KIMI, but Suvorov is trying to blackmail and ask for more benefits!"
When Eugene said the back, he was obviously a little angry.
He didn't have a good time working under Kimi, at first he thought that this company could provide some research resources, but who knows, not long after joining the company, even the salary will be released soon. Even the computers in the lab are some tattered second-hand goods, which are not worth much.
Therefore, under the pull of Lin Qi, Eugene Kaspersky led the team to change jobs, after all, there was no job change to be compensated for before, and it was not allowed to join the binding terms of other companies.
And Lin Qi's investment, Moscow and the Soviet government, are welcome, and other Russian people are also welcome, after all, a lot of jobs can be solved at once.
For these people, it is not just a simple solution to the problem of work, for the current Russian people, a stable job means the food ration that the family depends on, even some large domestic enterprises, as well as government departments, may not be more stable than new businesses.
The government can't afford to pay salaries, but new businesses can.
But this is not good news for Kimi, who has been trying to fatten Kaspersky Lab and sell it to foreign companies to make a lot of money. Now, Kaspersky has sold it himself, and the money has not fallen into the account of KIMI, which naturally makes him unbearable!
"Eugene, you violated the company's contract by doing so, and you have to pay the company $2 million in liquidated damages. ”
Ten minutes later, Eugene and Suvorov were sitting at a table, their faces red and their necks thick, and neither of them was in good shape, and the team brought by Suvorov quickly put a pile of papers on the table.
"No, it was agreed at the beginning, and 200,000 US dollars of research and development funds were invested every year, but you didn't fulfill any of them, if you want to say that you violated the contract, it was you, not me!"
Eugene pulled his throat and did not give the boss face at all, according to his plan, if Suvorov could fulfill his promise, he would soon be able to make money on the market outside Russia completely, no.
However, Suvorov has always been perfunctory and did not give much real money, and was not even allowed to go abroad for inspection and development of business. Because, he is afraid that Eugene Kaspersky will never return!
"Get ready for a lawsuit, Eugene, and don't forget, you can't beat me. Suvorov let out cruel words and left in a rage.
Eugene was distressed, although it was said that both sides were at fault, he did break the contract and jumped ship with the results, but Suvorov would not have made such a fuss if he hadn't been too harsh before.
But what should we do now? You know, the KIMI company is actually a company affiliated with the KGB.
"Diana, you take care of this matter. ”
Lin Qi gave Diana instructions, he would not let Kaspersky go, as for that Suvorov, although it is still Russia here, it is not a matter of concern, just the opportunity to see Diana's ability to deal with the crisis.
……
"What! Suvorov, bastard, I just said that the new business will not be hindered, this bastard immediately made a moth. ”
Diana took the complaint to Yeltsin's office, where he slapped the table angrily.
The struggle for power in Moscow is now becoming more and more apparent, and at this time, offending potential financiers?
If you coax Lin Qi well, maybe you can get hundreds of millions of dollars! At a critical time, how can you offend these rich overseas bosses?
He was enjoying afternoon tea in the office with his legs crossed, and he almost wanted to slap Suvorov to death.
"Mayor, if this matter is difficult, forget it. After all, we don't want to provoke the KGB people, the new business has a new plan, if Kaspersky Lab can't buy it, we will replace it with another one, there are many small companies or technicians around the world who have similar research and development results. ”
Diana didn't hide what she meant, half sincere and half cool.
"No, I'll take care of this, damn Suvorov, he's a shit KGB, even if it's a real KGB guy, he'll be a shit, give me a day. ”
