Chapter 1399 - Suing Microsoft (Subscription Requested)
In Bill? Gates was complacent, thinking that they could finally suppress Lian Xiangyinshan in the Chinese market, but they found that there was a serious problem with the acquired company. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"How did you get it, buy the company, why don't you re-sign the employment contract with the original elite? In the evaluation report you gave me at the beginning, the value of these talents was also included, right? Now what about talent? ”
Ballmer threw all the papers on the ground, and if it weren't for the fact that he would have been accused in the face, he really wanted to do it.
Spending so much money and buying a company that is not worth it at all, it is not because of the talent in those companies. As a result, the talent has jumped ship!
Wasn't the money spent before wasted? Without those talents, the value of these companies would be halved!
"I didn't expect that there would be such a big problem with these people's contracts, and they resigned without paying much liquidated damages."
The proportion of liquidated damages paid by Huaxia enterprises for resignation is itself low, not to mention that many of these software companies are jointly founded by some friends, and some even do not stipulate that liquidated damages need to be paid for resignation.
In many contracts, unjustified layoffs are not clearly marked as liquidated damages, so many of them have many loopholes.
If they caught the loophole, of course it was fine, but now someone else has taken advantage of the loophole and made Microsoft lose, and this is a big problem.
Ballmer felt that his future was bleak, and that Bill? Gates backed him up and handed him the positions of president and CEO, but now, I'm afraid at least Bill? Gates will take one of them.
In severe cases, both may be taken.
Then it will not only seriously affect Ballmer's income, but also his career.
After a serious decision-making mistake, which company will hire such an executive in the future?
"President, I've had people quickly re-sign contracts with those people and keep some of them. Moreover, the companies that poached people this time are mainly Huaxia enterprises, and I suspect that they have premeditated! ”
"Even if it was premeditated, it's not your negligence, you didn't find out? If we had found out, would it have allowed these things to happen? Also, such a big thing happened, you didn't deal with it in Huaxia, what did you do when you came back? Go back immediately, and poach people from other companies, and dig people from companies such as Lianxiang Yinshan! ”
"If it doesn't work well this time, then the Huaxia branch should also be replaced by a more capable person."
The Huaxia branch has just grown, and if it loses this good position, it will definitely be a big loss. The president of Huaxia Branch immediately assured that he would be satisfied with the company this time, and left in a hurry.
……
"Lao Lei, the company we newly acquired from Microsoft has poached so many people, so they don't have anything to deal with?"
"They were quick to sign new contracts with their employees and were paid well to keep some of the people we wanted to poach. However, it has little impact on our plans, and we have already recruited nearly one-third of the talents we want to poach. ”
So fast? Feng Yu was also very satisfied with the work of Lei Dajun and others.
Of course, this time it was not only Lian Xiang Yinshan, but also Wang Zhixi, Ma Huateng, Ma Yun, Li Yanhong and others also poached some network-related technical personnel.
It's not just the talents of the companies that have just been acquired by Microsoft, the contracts of some people in the original Microsoft Huaxia branch have expired, and they have also changed jobs, and they can't stand the arrogant appearance of those foreigners.
The dignified Microsoft has become a cradle for them to cultivate talents.
This time, Microsoft spent a lot of money, and although it acquired many IT companies, it ended up suffering a big loss.
Money has a price, but talent is hard to find!
"It's a good job, this time Microsoft has lost a fortune, but don't be too complacent, even if one billion is lost, it won't have much impact on a big business like Microsoft. And we also have to be careful, Microsoft's counterattack. ”
How can Microsoft suffer a dumb loss, they will definitely make some countermeasures.
"Microsoft also began to poach people in our company, fortunately we thought about it in advance, and our corporate culture has always been good, although there are some that have been poached, but the core technical personnel are still there, none of them have left!"
None of the core technical personnel have been poached, which is not easy. It seems that it is still very effective to let Qiu Bojun and Lei Dajun manage Lian Xiangyinshan. Their idea of setting a goal and working hard together is still very cohesive.
"That's good, but Microsoft's expansion this time is also a big trouble. Huaxia is our home base, and if we see Microsoft growing, it will be very bad for us, and it will also affect our stock price when we go public. ”
Feng Yu was talking to Liu Chuanzhi when the phone rang on the table, and Wilson came over.
What is Wilson doing here?
When Wilson entered Feng Yu's office, he immediately reported: "Boss, I found a problem that may help us fight or even fight Microsoft." ”
What Wilson discovered, that must be the legal clause?
Feng Yu's eyes lit up, if he could sue Microsoft and win, it would be a very big blow to Microsoft.
"Tell me."
"Yesterday, Huaxia just passed the draft anti-monopoly law, which has a clause that states that business operators with a dominant market position shall not abuse their dominant market position to eliminate or restrict competition."
Feng Yu is overjoyed, the anti-monopoly law has passed?
If it weren't for Feng Yu's suggestion, I don't know when this draft of the anti-monopoly law would have been released. At the beginning, the leaders were very surprised, Feng Yu's many companies are considered monopolies in China, right?
However, after referring to foreign anti-monopoly laws and combining with the national conditions of China, they really did not find the problem of Feng Yu's subordinate enterprises.
But now, this draft has helped a lot.
"Boss, Microsoft's system software will force the installation of Internet Explorer and Microsoft's video player, which is a means to eliminate competition. Not only in the laws of China, but also in the laws of the United States. ”
The last time Microsoft was sued in Europe was because of bundling. However, both of these apps are completely free. But even if it's free, it can make Microsoft earn money through advertising, etc., and it should be no problem to say that it is bundled sales.
"Are you confident that you can win at this point?" Feng Yu asked seriously.
"I'm confident that I'm going to win. At least let Huaxia Political Axe give Microsoft a big fine. I want to get caught up in a lawsuit, and it's a monopoly, which will have a very serious impact on Microsoft in the Chinese market, right? Wilson said with a smile.
Feng Yu patted Wilson on the shoulder excitedly: "Okay, I'll pay for this time, sue them for me!" ”
