C7 You Were Fired

The following day, Xie Lingyu, somewhat ashamed of looking Zhouyang in the eyes, woke up earlier than usual and went directly to her office.

As per usual, Zhouyang ate some breakfast outside and proceeded to ride his own little electric motorcycle towards the sales department of Fame Company.

In fact, Fame Corporation and Xie Lingyu's cosmetics company happened to only be separated by a single street.

At the door of Fame Company, Zhouyang, his heart filled with thousands of emotions, raised his head and stared at the building of Xie Lingyu's company.

"You ditched work for no reason yesterday, yet you're still in the mood to enjoy the scenery today? Do you really think our Fame Company is a place where trash is raised?"

Suddenly, a hostile voice sounded from behind Zhouyang …

Zhouyang slowly turned around and saw a black car parked along the side of the road.

A middle-aged man with money combed through his hair stuck his head out the car window and looked at Zhouyang with a face full of disgust.

The middle-aged man's name was Lee Chuan, the sales director of Fame Company who also happened to be Zhouyang's surpervisor.

For Zhouyang had once exposed Lee Chuan for his underhanded rule and scandals, Lee Chuan had always been hostile towards him and wanted to fire him from Fame Company.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Zhouyang hesitantly opened his mouth and called out to Director Lee.

Lee Chuan snorted coldly and said, "Zhouyang, since you were out of work for no plausible reason, prepare yourself for what's about to happen! Even the deities in heaven can't save you this time!"

With that, Lee Chuan sped off in his car.

Looking at the taillights of Lee Chuan's car, Zhouyang shook his head repeatedly.

Lee Chuan, oh, Lee Chuan. If I were a normal person, it would be fine if you were trying to act in such an arrogant manner towards me. But today, however, I have many weapons in hand to end your entire career. Since you dare to still offend me, then don't blame me for being rude!

Just as he entered Fame Corporation's Sales Department, the air was immediately filled with heavy tension and a repressing smell.

Everyone, depressed and discouraged to work, seemed to have just been scolded by Lee Chuan.

A female colleague said to Zhouyang in a low voice, "Lee Chuan insulted everyone as soon as he entered the room. He even said that he would drive you out to make an example out of others today. You should hurry up and beg for mercy before he fires you!"

Zhouyang smiled: "No need, just let him be."

Just as he was saying that, Lee Chuan came out of the office with a letter of resignation. He stood in front of the office and shouted, "Zhouyang has been officially fired from the company because he was absent for no reason. In the future, anyone else who doesn't work hard like him will also be fired!"

With that, he looked at Zhouyang and said coldly, "Zhouyang, take the letter of resignation and go to the personnel office to settle the paperwork!"

Zhouyang asked him, "Director Lee, according to the company's rules, a day of absence without reason only results in a deduction of three days' salary. In that case, why are you trying to fire me?"

Lee Chuan sneered, "The company's rules? Let me tell you, I made those sets of rules! Therefore, I am the rule here! If I tell you to scram, then just scram! In fact, roll yourself out of here now!"

Zhouyang said in disdain: "You are just a sales director, neither a personnel director nor even a chairman. On what basis are you going to fire me in violation of the company's rules? Do you think that I won't go and discuss it with Director Shen?"

"Bah!" Lee Chuan said contemptuously: "You still want to talk to Director Shen about this matter? Do you think Director Shen even knows who you are? Let me provide you a helpful tip... hurry up and get out of my sights if you know what's good for you. Otherwise, I will even inform the companies in our industry to not hire you in the future!"

"Sure!" Zhouyang nodded and said in a slightly sarcastic tone: "You're terrifying indeed. Isn't it already enough that I'm scared of you" Just give me the letter of resignation, and I'll go through the resignation formalities."

Lee Chuan threw the resignation letter at Zhouyang's feet and said coldly, "Get the hell out of here! Don't you dare come into this place again!"

Zhouyang smiled cunningly as he took out his letter of resignation and left the Sales Department, heading straight for the office of Director Shen Bijun.

At this moment, Director Shen was still in her office worrying about the results of their company from this current year.

Yes, Fame Company is considered a top domestic brand in China. Under the impact of foreign brands and big brands, however, it was overshadowed, battered, and exhausted by its international competitors.

The products of Fame are simply far too inferior compared to other foreign brands. Moreover, their brand was not nearly popular enough to be recognized worldwide. Thus, their market share was constantly being affected.

What was even worse was that the R & D department wasn't able to do anything, and never created any good products online. Compared to them, foreign brands were constantly pushing out and inventing newer, improved products. As such, the products of Fame Company were also overshadowed by that of their international counterparts.

If this continued, Fame Company would only be capable of produce cheap skincare products that no one wants.

At this moment, Zhouyang knocked on Directors Shen's office door.

Shen Bi Jun rubbed her temples helplessly and said, "Come in!"

Zhouyang pushed open the door and greeted her, "Hello, Director Shen."

Shen Bi Jun stood before him. She wore fashionable clothing and had a sense of coolness in her presence. Furthermore, she possessed an exceptionally voluptuous figure, making her the best of the best among all women in the region.

Actually, in the East China Sea, there were two golden flowers that were praised the most by others. One of them was Zhouyang's wife, Xie Lingyu.

The other was Director Shen Bijun, who was currently standing in front of Zhouyang.

Shen Bijun asked in surprise, "You are?"

Zhouyang said, "Director Shen, I'm Zhouyang, a sales representative from the Sales Department."

"Oh, hello." Shen Bijun frowned, she didn't understand why a low-level salesman would come into her office to find her. Although she was slightly put off by that fact, she nonetheless still asked politely: "What are you here for?"

Zhouyang said, "Director Shen, I'm here to negotiate a deal with you."

"Oh?" Shen Bijun smiled and asked, "What kind of deal do you want to negotiate with me about?"

Although she appeared kind and polite on the outside, Shen Bijun secretly felt that this random sales guy from a lower-level department simply did not know how things worked in this company and looked down on him.

A low-level salesperson coming straight to the chairman to negotiate a deal? Are you kidding? Who does this guy think he is?

Thus, she thought that he was just some unruly employee who does not know his place. After hearing him out, she would just call the HR department and ask them to drive him away.

At this time, Zhouyang said with an indifferent expression, "Director Shen, you should know that there is a new patent in the Stanford Biology Lab regarding the whitening and anti-aging factor."

Shen Bijun looked at him in surprise: "How do you know about that?"

Zhouyang smiled and said, "As someone working in this industry, it's naturally to pay more attention to news regarding it."

Shen Bi Jun could not help but be intrigued by him.

Only the company's top executives and research and development department would pay attention to the technology. The sales department usually only sold their products outside, yet a small salesperson actually paid attention to the industry's top technology information. It seemed like this young lad standing before her was not so simple after all.

Thus, she asked curiously, "What are you trying to tell me by talking to me about this patent? Are you telling me to acquire it?"

"Does Director Shen want it now?" Zhouyang asked with a smile.

Shen Bijun burst into laughter, "Of course I want it, but I can't afford it! Japan's Shiseido, France's Chanel, and several of Italy's top brands are all trying to compete for that specific patent. I obviously don't have the power to competes with the likes of them."

Zhouyang said in a serious tone, "Director Shen, to tell you the truth, I have this patent in my hands. If you're interested, we can negotiate a deal for you to obtain it!"

Shen Bi Jun laughed and said, "Don't joke with me. This patent is in the Stanford Biology Lab, not just in the hands of anyone. If you are up to mischief, you can leave immediately."

Zhouyang smiled and said, "You can check the international patent network to see who owns this patent."

Shen Bi Jun knitted her brows. She then proceeded to open up the international patent network and entered the patent number of the whitening and anti-aging factor.

Having already dreamed about acquiring such a sought-after patent, she had already researched it thoroughly to learn more about it.

After the results of the search were out, her pupils immediately contracted in disbelief!

"How is this possible!"

She stared at the captions on the screen, dumbfounded!

Originally, the owner of the patent had been listed in English as "Standford Biology Lab." Now, on the other hand, the name of its owner was written in Chinese pinyin words, "Zhou Yang."
