Chapter 1399 Suing Microsoft

When Bill Gates was complacent and thought he could finally suppress Lianxiang Yinshan in the Chinese market, they discovered that the acquired company had serious problems.

"How did you manage to acquire the company? Why didn't you re-sign the employment contract with the original elite? In the evaluation report you gave me, the value of these talents was also included in it? What about the talents now?"

Ballmer threw all the documents on the ground. If he didn't throw them in the other party's face, he would be easily charged. He really wanted to do this.

Spending so much money to acquire a company that is worthless is not because of the talents in those companies. As a result, the talent quit!

Didn't the money spent before go to waste? Without those talents, the value of these enterprises would shrink by half!

"I didn't expect that there would be such a big problem with the contracts of these people. They resigned, and they didn't need to pay much liquidated damages."

Huaxia's companies have a low rate of liquidated damages for resigners. What's more, many of the software companies are jointly founded by some friends, and some even don't require resignation to pay liquidated damages.

In many contracts, layoffs without reason do not clearly indicate the need to pay liquidated damages, so many of these contracts have many loopholes.

If they caught the loophole, then of course there is no problem, but now someone else took advantage of the loophole and caused Microsoft to lose, which is a big problem.

Ballmer felt that his future was gloomy. Originally, Bill Gates supported him and handed over the positions of president and CEO to him, but now, at least Bill Gates will take one of them.

In serious cases, both may be taken away.

Then not only will it seriously affect Ballmer's income, but it will also have a serious impact on his career.

After a serious decision-making mistake, which company will hire such an executive in the future?

"President, I have asked people to quickly re-sign the contracts with those people, and retained a group of them. And the companies that poached people this time are mainly Huaxia companies. I suspect they have premeditated!"

"Even if it was premeditated, so what? It's not your oversight, you didn't find out? If you found out earlier, would these things happen? Also, if such a big thing happened, you didn't deal with it in Huaxia, what are you doing when you come back ? Go back immediately, and poach people from other companies, even people from companies like Yinshan!"

"If it can't be done this time, then the Huaxia branch should be replaced by a more capable person."

The Huaxia branch has just grown, so if it loses this good position, it must be a big loss. The president of the Huaxia branch immediately assured that the company would be satisfied this time, and left in a hurry.

...

"Old Lei, we have poached so many people from the newly acquired company from Microsoft, so they have nothing to do?"

"They quickly signed new contracts with employees, and retained some of the people we wanted to recruit with high salaries. However, it has little impact on our plan, and nearly one-third of the talents we want to recruit have already been recruited. "

So fast? Feng Yu is also very satisfied with the work of Lei Dajun and others.

Of course, this time it wasn't just Lianxiang Yinshan, Wang Zhixi, Ma Huateng, Ma Yun, Li Yanhong and others also poached some network-related technicians.

It's not just the talent from the company that was just acquired by Microsoft. Some people from the Microsoft Huaxia branch had their contracts expired and they also quit. They couldn't bear the arrogant appearance of those foreigners.

The dignified Microsoft has become a cradle for them to train talents.

This time Microsoft spent a large sum of money. Although it acquired many IT companies, it ended up suffering a big loss.

Money has a price, talent is hard to find!

"You did a good job. This time Microsoft lost a lot of money, 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 Beware, Microsoft's counterattack."

How could Microsoft suffer from being dumb?

They will definitely make some countermeasures.

"Microsoft has also started to poach people from our company. Fortunately, we thought of it in advance, and our corporate culture has always been good. Although some have been poached, the core technical personnel are still there, and none of them have left! "

None of the core technicians have been poached, which is not easy. It seems that letting Qiu Bojun and Lei Dajun manage Lianxiang Yinshan is still very effective. Their idea of ​​setting a goal and everyone working hard together is still very cohesive.

"That's good, but Microsoft's expansion this time is also a big trouble. Huaxia is our base camp. If we watch Microsoft grow bigger, 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 on the desk rang and Wilson came over.

What is Wilson here for now?

When Wilson entered Feng Yu's office, he immediately reported: "Boss, I found a problem that may help us fight against or even hit Microsoft."

What Wilson found, must be a legal clause?

Feng Yu's eyes lit up. If he could sue Microsoft and win, it would be a huge blow to Microsoft.

"Tell me."

"Huaxia just passed the draft of the anti-monopoly law yesterday, and there is a clause in it that operators with a dominant market position shall not abuse their dominant market position to exclude or restrict competition."

Feng Yu is overjoyed, the anti-monopoly law has passed?

If it wasn't for Feng Yu's suggestion, I don't know when the draft of the anti-monopoly law will be released. At the beginning, the leaders were still surprised. Many of Feng Yu's companies are considered monopoly positions in China, right?

However, after referring to foreign anti-monopoly laws and combining China's national conditions, they really couldn't find the problem with Feng Yu's subordinate enterprises.

But now, this draft has helped a lot.

"Boss, Microsoft's system software will force the installation of IE browser and Microsoft's audio-visual player. This is a means of eliminating competition. Not only the laws in China, but also the laws in the United States."

The last time Microsoft was sued in Europe, it was because of bundling. Both of these programs are completely free. But even if it is free, it can also allow Microsoft to earn income through advertising, etc. It should be no problem to say that it is a bundled sale.

"Are you confident to win at this point?" Feng Yu asked seriously.

"I am confident that I will win. At least the Chinese government can make Microsoft pay a big fine. I want to be caught in a lawsuit, and it is a monopoly. This will have a very serious impact on Microsoft's market in China, right? said Wilson with a smile.

Feng Yu patted Wilson on the shoulder excitedly: "Good job, I will pay for this time, sue them!"
