Chapter 65 Liquidated Damages
Lu Xiao said: "I haven't thought about it, and I probably won't do it in the near future." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Just when the others were still trying to gossip about some news, there was a knock on the door of the conference room, Jingjing ran over to open the door, and saw Pan Luting standing anxiously at the door.
"What's wrong, Pan?" Jingjing looked at her curiously.
Pan Luting ignored her and said directly to Lu Xiao: "Mr. Lu, the people from the Wang Group came with a lawyer and said that they wanted us to compensate for liquidated damages. ”
"What liquidated damages?" Lu Xiao got up and asked.
"They said that they had invested 1 million in advertising before, and we didn't give it publicity. Alas, Mr. Zhou just made an appointment with a customer to go out, you go and have a look! ”
"Where are they?"
"Break room."
Through the glass door of the lounge, Lu Xiao saw three people sitting on the orange sofa chair, one of them a man and a woman sitting on the larger sofa chair, and the other sitting on a single sofa chair.
Except for the man in the blue shirt on the single sofa chair, she knew the other two, it was Wang Yiyang and Dai Xiaoxue, a former employee of "Hejia".
"Mr. Wang is here, and he is far away." Lu Xiao pushed the door in, his eyes first fell on Dai Xiaoxue, who was wearing a pink dress, and said with a smile: "The beauty around Mr. Wang has changed again." ”
Dai Xiaoxue lowered her head in an attempt to avoid her gaze.
Seeing the radiant appearance of the old love that she hadn't seen for a long time, Wang Yiyang's mind vaguely appeared in her pure and shy appearance when she first met her, and now the confidence and calmness between her eyebrows are far from comparable to the past.
These two beauties have also witnessed her transformation and growth. Wang Yiyang's heart was suddenly full of emotion.
Seeing Lu Xiao generously sitting down on the sofa opposite him, Wang Yiyang said, "Lu Xiao, today we are here to talk about liquidated damages. ”
Lu Xiao moved his gaze to Wang Yiyang's face and asked, "What breach of contract did we do?" ”
Wang Yiyang said: "In April this year, we invested 1 million yuan in advertising on your website, but you not only did not advertise to us, but also maliciously slandered our company during the cooperation period, and caused economic losses to our company, so on behalf of the company, I asked you to compensate three times the liquidated damages." ”
Lu Xiao thought about it, it was a few months ago, and he was in a hurry to retaliate at that time, so he didn't look at the contract. However, the Wang Group has asked for compensation after such a long time, and it seems that it is really short of money.
"Mr. Wang said that we breached the contract, but is there any evidence?" Lu Xiao looked at Wang Yiyang and said. Although she may really be wrong, but the other party can't produce evidence, she won't just listen to Wang Yiyang's words and compensate stupidly.
"The evidence is there." Wang Yiyang glanced at the lawyer on the single sofa and said, "Lawyer Zhang, she is the editor-in-chief of the 'Hejia' website, and she signed the contract. ”
The man in the blue shirt and black trousers nodded at Wang Yiyang, took out a file bag from the black leather bag, then took out the contract, and said: "This contract was signed by both of you at the beginning, and Article 2 above stipulates that Party B must complete Party A's advertising tasks, otherwise it will be regarded as a breach of contract and Party A must be compensated three times the advertising fee; Article 12 stipulates that during the period of cooperation, if one party does something that harms the interests of the other party, it shall be deemed to be in breach of contract, and the other party must be compensated for economic losses, and the loss fee shall be compensated according to the size of the breach of contract. ”
After that, he also took out a screenshot file of the advertisement that was not launched in April, as well as the news report that Lu Xiao asked Dai Xiaoxue to sort out at the beginning that exposed the poisonous land of the Wang Group.
"Looks like you're well prepared." Lu Xiao looked at the documents handed over by lawyer Zhang and said, "But I remember that the original advertisements were launched normally, you wait a minute, I will ask the technology to adjust the background advertising data in April." ”
Lu Xiao walked out of the lounge and recalled the events at that time, although he exposed the news of the Wang Group's poisonous land, he did not ask the editor to remove the advertisements on the website.
"Xiao Jiang, can you help me adjust the advertising data in the background in April to see if there are any advertisements from the Wang Group." Lu Xiao walked to the office area of the technical department and said to a technician named Jiang Yixin.
"Okay." Jiang Yixin immediately opened the backstage page of the "Hejia" website to view.
Lu Xiao stood beside him and watched, only to see his mouse sliding over the advertising data one by one.
"Found it!" Jiang Yixin clicked on an advertising page, and Lu Xiao saw that there were words on it about Tianxiang Blue Bay, a real estate under Wang's Group.
"Check the time when this ad is online and offline." Lu Xiao said.
Jiang Yixin responded, and soon found out, "It was launched on April 1, but it was withdrawn on April 5." ”
Lu Xiao leaned over and looked at the time, yes, he couldn't help frowning, according to the contract, this advertisement will be online for at least 1 month, how could it be taken down so quickly.
"Can you find out who pulled it down?" The editor is basically responsible for the content replacement in the backend of the website, and once the content is edited, the name of the operator will be displayed after the save. However, with the exception of technology, they use a unified back-office account.
Jiang Yixin looked through it again and found that the name of the editor was not displayed on the column of the operator who replaced the advertisement, nor did it display the unified account for technical use, and finally concluded, "The person who replaced the advertisement should have left the company, because the names of all the departing editors will be clear in the background, so it will not be displayed." ”
"I see, thank you." Lu Xiao sighed, turned around and walked to the lounge, thinking as he walked, and suddenly saw Dai Xiaoxue sitting inside.
She should be the only one who has left.
Because from April to now, no one else in the editorial department has left.
But her name was no longer available in the background, and the person who replaced the ad naturally disappeared. There is no evidence that she did it.
However, as soon as Lu Xiao thought about it, he walked in with a smile.
"How's it going, have you found the background data?" Wang Yiyang came in from Lu Xiao, and his eyes never took his eyes off her.
Lu Xiao sat down and said, "I found it." ”
Wang Yiyang was puzzled: "Found it?" Why didn't I see it at the time? ”
Lu Xiao said: "This is going to ask the young lady next to you." ”
Dai Xiaoxue, who had been silent, suddenly raised her head, with a hint of panic in her eyes, "What does this have to do with me, I am no longer an employee of 'Hejia'." ”
"What we're looking for now is the person who took down the ad, and it has nothing to do with whether you are a 'family' employee or not." Lu Xiao turned to Lawyer Zhang and asked, "Lawyer Zhang, legally speaking, the leader did not ask the employee to remove the developer's advertisement, but the employee privately withdrew it himself, so how should the breach of contract caused to the company be calculated?" ”
