Chapter Ninety-Six: Why!
Chapter Ninety-Six: Why!
Liu Mingsheng knew that the out-of-stock chip was a big deal, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "That's right, the decoded chip has been out of stock for a week!"
"What about Li De, what did he say?"
When this sentence was asked, Xia Yu felt that something was wrong. If Li De's side is normal, how can the core supply be cut off for so long without any news reported.
Li De...... Li De can't be contacted anymore!"
Speaking of the back, Liu Mingsheng's voice changed taste.
It turned out that he didn't care much about the production side anymore, and he happened to pass by here and chatted with Zhang Kui for a while. The worker in charge of checking spare parts at night suddenly reported that the decoding chip had not been delivered, and this position was newly created after Xu Jiahui came.
They didn't take it too seriously, thinking that they were responsible for sending accessories, but after a closer inspection, they realized that there were not many goods in the warehouse at all!
I hurriedly called Li De, the channel director, but kept prompting that "the phone you dialed is not in the service area".
Only then did he realize that something might have happened, so he didn't think much about it and immediately called Xia Yu to report.
βShit!β
Xia Yu couldn't help but scold, but at this time, he couldn't mess up, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry about him now, you confirm the situation first, and call the detailed inventory records, inventory management, and people who can be contacted by the channel department to the office, by the way, there are Zhang Kui and Xu Jiahui together, and we will have a conference call in half an hour." β
"Yes. Mr. Xia, you scold me!" Liu Mingsheng suddenly said.
Xia Yu's indignant mood was also amused by his words, and scolded with a smile: "What's the urgency of this, hurry up." I'll talk about it in a minute!"
That being said, Xia Yu certainly knew that this matter was urgent.
The K2 is just available now. Once the market is out of stock on a large scale, there will definitely be all kinds of negative news coming out. And now Polestar has a lot of money. Once there is a problem in the capital chain, it will be a chain reaction, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
At this time, it was just past eight o'clock, and Xia Yu immediately called his uncle to ask about the situation. Li De has been with him for more than two years, and he knows a lot of things.
Xia Mingde hadn't received the news yet, and when he heard Xia Yuyi say, he subconsciously blurted out: "Impossible!"
"I'm not sure, uncle, don't worry, you can find a way to contact him. Does he have a landline? Do you know the address?"
Xia Mingde was obviously silent for a while, and only after a few seconds did he say, "Okay." You wait for my news. I'm sure I'll find him. β
β¦β¦
To be honest, Xia Yu didn't have much hope in his heart about his uncle's thoughts.
If it's really Li De. It must have been a long-planned conspiracy. And once this kind of thing is chosen, the cost of wanting to turn back is even higher, and it is extremely unlikely that you can count on temporary action.
Of course he didn't want to see that happen, but ......
Li De was one of the veterans of Polestar's early days.
He still remembers the first time Li De appeared, accompanying him to Linghai Electronics Market to select spare parts and assemble the initial prototype; he also remembers that in order to rush K1 to go to market, Li De was alone for a whole week, running around and completing all the orders for components in the shortest possible time; and even the entire channel system of Polestar Electronics is currently established by him!
In the six months since Polestar was founded, Xia Yu has put his mind to other departments. Only the channel department didn't worry about it, and it didn't bother.
But if it was really Li De's counterattack, and he suddenly made such a move, the entire Polestar component channel would collapse, not to mention. It will also be affected a lot. Moreover, Philips' decoding chip is definitely the most important component of K2, and now the impact of out-of-stock is too great.
Polestar Electronics was nervous up and down when something happened. The relevant persons in charge quickly rushed to the company one by one at the urging of Liu Mingsheng, and some did not know the specific situation. As soon as I came over, I inquired one after another, and talked non-stop in private.
Xia Yu also rushed back to the hotel immediately. On the way, he called Xiao Wenjing and only said one sentence, "That person may be Li De." β
Xiao Xueba, who often communicated with Xia Yu, immediately understood what he meant, and hurried back from outside.
The phone system answered on time, and the first thing Xia Yu had to do at this time was to stabilize his military heart, and he spoke first: "I'm Xia Yu, I'm bothering you so late." But there's nothing to worry about here, Polestar is also strong now! Mingsheng, you can talk about the specific situation first!"
Liu Mingsheng had already gotten a more detailed situation here, and looking at the group of people here who were all nervous, his heart was heavy.
However, he still opened his mouth to report: "The situation has been investigated, since ten days ago, that is, during the K2 stocking period, the channel director Li De dismissed the original procurement clerk Xiao Zhang, on the grounds that he did not complete the inventory task on time many times; β
"What about the person in charge of delivering goods to the workshop?" asked Xu Jiahui.
Liu Mingsheng smiled embarrassedly: "This, at that time, we didn't have full-time distributors and administrators, and Li De arranged people to deliver goods to the workshop." β
"Who sent it? didn't find out that the stock was insufficient?" Xia Yu asked anxiously.
"It's me!" A timid voice came from the other end of the phone, "Mr. Xia, I, my name is Wang Lisong, at that time, Mr. Li mentioned that he was talking about direct sales cooperation with Philips, which is a great thing, so this batch of chips will no longer be loaded over there when they are used up, and they will be shipped back and shipped over......"
"We've all been deceived!"
Liu Mingsheng took over the conversation and said: "At the K2 press conference, Jia Feirong, deputy director of the marketing department of Philips' chip division, had already communicated well with us, but the follow-up was also talked about by Li De!
The more Xiao Wenjing listened, the more frightened she became, and at this time she finally understood the whole situation, and couldn't help but say: "So Li De hid the management and production department internally, and deliberately talked to Philips externally about the collapse and delay time, this dead guy is really ruthless!"
"Forget it, don't worry, everyone, things haven't reached the point where you can't close the venue!"
Xia Yu eased his mood. He also asked in detail about the processing progress of the production department, the number of remaining chip inventories, and also asked about the specific situation of the two channel specialists who were responsible for the purchase of yuan accessories with Li De, but were completely unaware.
In the end, he sighed and said, "Mingsheng." And Mr. Xu, please let the two of you go all out with the rest of the channel department. Communicate with the Philips general agent and various distributors in Nanyue. Even if it is the full amount, try to take down the goods in their hands, and I will contact Philips personally. β
"Okay, Mr. Xia rest assured!"
"Well, contact me at any time tomorrow if there is progress, and we will meet again at noon to talk! Don't be too anxious, there is always a solution to the matter, hard work everyone!"
"Yes!"
After the meeting, Xia Yu sat on the sofa in a daze.
Xiao Wenjing saw that Xia Yu was very uncomfortable. But there are some things to remind, hand him a glass of water and whisper: "Li De knows too much about our things, many design, production and even some planning actions, as long as he has the heart to ask, your uncle probably won't deliberately hide it from him......"
"I know!" Xia Yu waved his hand.
"So, in my opinion, for the sake of safety, it's better to report the case, and ask the judicial organ to file a case before the next step. β
"Forget it, let's figure it out ourselves. β
"Xia Yu, be sensible! Polestar Electronics is not your business alone. There are more than 200 people in the company, all of whom rely on this company!"
"I know!" Xia Yu hesitated, but still dialed the uncle's phone and told him about the discussion here.
Xia Mingde listened quietly. After a long time, he said: "Xiaoyu, you wait for my news!"
I didn't say anything earlier in the next sentence. β
β¦β¦
In fact, hung up Xia Yu's phone. Xia Mingde was also very uncomfortable.
Light a cigarette for yourself and sit down on the sofa. He suddenly remembered a scene from the dinner he had with Li De last week.
At that time, after three rounds of drinking, both of them were half drunk and half sober. Li De somehow said something special, he talked about a lot of things, and suddenly began to pay attention to many plans of the company. This is his confidant, so he didn't hide it much, and he said a lot about Polestar from head to toe.
Li De went to the toilet halfway, and when he came back, his face became very strange, and he thought that he had drunk too much wine and vomited and felt uncomfortable.
Then Li De suddenly asked: "Mr. Xia, to be honest, Mr. Xiao Xia has never taken out a penny from the beginning to the end of Polestar Electronics! All the investment is from you, although he is your own nephew, but he took seventy percent of the shares, and said that he wants to do what share reform, and divide the equity to others, is it a bit ......?"
"Don't say it, you don't know what I'm capable of, it's okay to rely on our old brothers to do processing, and I hope to compete with so many big domestic factories as a brand, I don't know how many times I've died." β
"Yes, I said the wrong thing, and I should be punished!" Li De poured a sip of wine alone, and sighed inarticulately: "Mr. Xiao Xia is only seventeen years old this year, what a hero out of a young man, Professor Xia gave birth to a good son!" Alas, ......"
This long sigh made Xia Mingde empathize, knowing that he thought of his son again, and asked, "Why, Xiaohui still doesn't let you worry?"
Li De's son is eighteen years old this year, one year younger than Xia Yu, but he didn't go to junior high school before he finished school, and he fooled around with a group of people on the street every day, and got into the detention center every once in a while. That's also a muddy person, and when he has less temper, he doesn't even pay attention to Li De, and he dares to scold.
But there is such a son in the family, and his mother spoils him, so he can't control it, and the family's money has been wasted a lot.
"That bastard boy! I really can't wait to be lame and raise a ...... at home" Li De suddenly became excited, and sat down on the chair again, "Forget it, it's still Mr. Xia, you don't have to worry, come, I'm toasting you, thanks to the boss for the past few years!"
"Don't, what are you talking about! You've helped me a lot, come, I respect you!"
Both of them drank too much that night, and in the end, Li De was crazy and cried and laughed, and it was rare to see him let go so much.
Now that I think about it......
Xia Mingde suddenly choked on the cigarette and coughed a few times in a row, but his heart was cold. By this point, he was almost certain.
After extinguishing the cigarette, he finally picked up his phone, found the name in the Frequently Used Contacts column and dialed it.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily out of the service area, please ......"
I hit the landline at home again.
"Sorry, the number you dialed doesn't save zΓ i ......"
Then I asked a few old employees of Mingde Electronics in a row, but naturally there was no news, and I hadn't seen them for many days.
At half past eleven o'clock in the evening, he had not yet fallen asleep, when suddenly a phone call came, it was an unfamiliar number, and his mind was connected, but there was no sound.
"Li De, it's you...... Why!" (To be continued......)
