After Du Qiu got up, he hurriedly dressed and washed, heated the meat buns in the refrigerator in the microwave, and ate them with yogurt.

Then I drove to work at the company.

After graduating from Dr. Du Qiu, he turned down the olive branches of some partners and applied for a job in a start-up company that made driverless cars, and worked for almost a year.

In the past year or two, the field of unmanned driving has been very hyped by capital, and various start-ups have been easy to get capital before the second half of last year.

Dr. Du Qiu's professional direction happens to be machine perception, and he has a certain obsession with unmanned driving, so it is easy to join this company.

It's just that since the end of last year, the direction of capital on unmanned driving has changed, and the cold winter has quietly come, and at this time, most unmanned driving products have not yet formed an effective market.

Du Qiu's company has naturally fallen into an unprecedented crisis, in fact, the company has begun to owe wages last month.

If it weren't for Du Qiu's father's accident last month, and then the crystal pillow made him dream every night, making his mind full of stars and seas, I'm afraid Du Qiu would have completed his job hopping.

However, since you haven't changed jobs yet, you can't be late for work.

It's just that when Du Qiu arrived at the science and technology park building where the company is located today, he felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong.

In the past, the security guards stood solemnly at the door, but at this time, they muttered to the side with the cleaners, ignoring the personnel entering and leaving the building.

When Du Qiu arrived at the fifth floor where the company was located, it was 8:59 in the morning, and the company's working time was 9 o'clock.

But when Du Qiu got out of the elevator, he saw a black head.

The entire entrance corridor was blocked by the company's colleagues, if it weren't for Du Qiu's height of 1.82 meters, it would be relatively high.

I'm afraid he won't know that the door of the company hasn't been opened at all.

"Yo, Dr. Du is here, didn't Yan always run away?"

"Dr. Du, the company still owes us two months' salary, and this sudden announcement is closed, when will the money be repaid to us?"

"Boss, you're here, I thought you knew the inside story, and you ran away in advance."

……

Du Qiu is in charge of leading a team in the R&D department, which is a small middle-level cadre, and he is surrounded by all kinds of inquiries and greetings as soon as he gets out of the elevator.

People also let him close to the company's gate, and the one who called him the boss was the right-hand man in the group, electrical engineer Liu Yaofeng, nicknamed "Da Liu".

"What's the situation, Da Liu?" Although Du Qiu roughly understood what was going on, he still wanted to ask the ins and outs of the matter.

"Boss, it looks like you're in the dark too."

After Da Liu explained, Du Qiu understood what was going on.

It turned out that everyone came to work this morning and found that the company's door was not open, and a notice was posted on the door.

The notice said that due to the rupture of the company's capital chain, the company went bankrupt and collapsed, everything will go according to the bankruptcy procedure, and the employees are asked to find their own way out, and the corresponding arrears of wages will also be included in the bankruptcy procedure.

Although most employees are aware of the company's difficulties, management has been swearing that it is negotiating such and such a venture capital and that the Series B investment will be completed soon.

Who would have thought that the company would suddenly close its doors just after last month, and only a third of the month was owed.

After listening to this, Du Qiu quickly glanced at the crowd blocking the gate of the company, and suddenly showed a sure expression on his face.

This kind of thing, the people from the Finance Department and the Personnel Administration Department must have known in advance, and Du Qiu really didn't see the employees of these two departments in the crowd.

Most of the people who are blocked here are people from the R&D department, or people from the R&D department are closed to information, and they are easy to be bullied.

He even saw Sun Hongming, the deputy director of the R&D department, who was being besieged by a group of people.

Just looking at his painful and dazed look, I knew that this middle and high-level management had not been able to get the news in advance, which shows how simply the company's management ran away.

"Lao Sun is also an outcast, who let him go wrong with 'mad cow disease'." Seeing Du Qiu looking at Sun Hongming, Da Liu couldn't help but say.

"Mad cow disease" is the nickname of Feng Niubin, director of the R&D department, this guy was born in a state-owned enterprise, and his management level is not very good, but he is good at summarizing the work achievements of his subordinates into his work report, so that several founders of the company think that he understands management very well.

Of course, the most important factor is that "mad cow disease" is the brother-in-law of the company's chairman, but most people in the company don't know about this.

Du Qiu also learned about it by coincidence, so he once advised Sun Hongming to conflict less with "mad cow disease".

In fact, Sun Hongming is already middle-aged, although he is from a technical management background, he is still very transparent about human feelings, and he is very tolerant and humble of "mad cow disease".

Just because Sun Hongming has real skills, and the vice president of the board of directors above appreciates him more, he caused "mad cow disease" to suffer from pink eye, and wanted to squeeze out this subordinate who threatened his position, so he naturally threw all kinds of difficulties and small shoes at Sun Hongming without money.

"Don't say strange things, Lao Sun was forced by 'mad cow disease', but Vice President Xiao didn't even inform him of the closure, and it seems that he didn't treat him as his own." Du Qiu couldn't help but sigh.

Da Liu echoed: "Who said it wasn't, Vice President Xiao was just afraid that he would be used as an eyeliner." ”

"Hey, Doctor, why are we talking here, think of a way, how are we going to get the arrears?"

A woman squeezed in front of the two and interjected.

Da Liu smiled, "Yo, Sister Yuan, your personnel administration department has also been abandoned?" ”

"Who says it's not, I just went to the park management committee, and they don't know about this situation, and they don't know the password to open the door." Yuan Minhua sighed and said.

Only then did Du Qiu know that he had misjudged, and it seemed that all departments of the company, except for all the members of the finance department, only the directors or managers of each department were aware.

Yuan Minhua is only the head of personnel in the personnel administration department, and is obviously not among those in the know.

"What can I do, everyone has declared bankruptcy and gone through the procedure, at most, after the procedure is completed, use those poor assets to pay off our arrears first, and don't think about the rest." Du Qiu replied to Yuan Minhua's question just now.

Yuan Minhua said a little angrily: "But...... Even if you have to go through the bankruptcy procedure, you can't help but notify the employees in advance, what's the matter with locking the door directly?

I still have a new set of cosmetics in my office, and I forgot to take it with me when I got off work yesterday, what should I do now? ”

As soon as Yuan Minhua's words came out, it immediately caused a resonance, and many of the people who were emotionally blocked here had important personal belongings in the company.

Those employees who don't have this problem have already left after reading the notice, and it is better to look for a job early than to be stuck here at this time.

Of course, there are also a small number of unwilling people who want to see if there is any turnaround.

Du Qiu looked at the door of the company, this gate uses a combination lock, this brand of combination lock, he has disassembled and studied, it is not difficult to open it.

In fact, Du Qiu also has a personal mobile hard drive in his desk, which is more important to him, which is the research data he collects.

He brought it to the company, and it was also used for reference control.

"Sister Yuan, I can try to open the door."
