The Industrial Kingdom of the Great Age

Chapter 13 English Contracts
Zhao Ming and Ms. Hu said a few more polite words before entering the room.

If it was before, Ms. Hu might not pay attention to Zhao Ming. In her eyes, her status is far higher than Zhao Ming, and she has such a proud qualification.But it’s different now. Her status is still very high, but Zhao Ming’s status is not simple anymore. Being able to invent machines is in response to the call of national policy. Can the status be simple?

What Miss Hu admired the most was Zhao Ming's income.She has worked with the boss in Hong Kong, and has some capitalist ideas, but pays more attention to income.

Zhao Ming's salary is less than hers, but the bonus is the most, even with the bonus, Zhao Ming is several times more than her.This made her look at Zhao Ming differently.

Entering the room, it is a simple office with a set of simple wooden sofas inside the door.Facing the sofa is a huge portrait of ***, and under the portrait is a desk.And there was a middle-aged man sitting at the desk.

This middle-aged man is very majestic, but at this time there is a smile on his face, and he looks at Zhao Ming with gentle eyes. From the light in his eyes from time to time, it can be seen that this man is actually a shrewd master. .

Zhao Ming has seen many such shrewd businessmen.He has followed many professors overseas to give lectures to some business leaders. Although he is working as a helper, he has met many shrewd businessmen.This middle-aged man belongs to this category.

Zhao Ming hurriedly said, "Manager, I'm Zhao Ming. Do you have any orders?"

The manager nodded, pointed to the sofa, and said with a smile, "Sit down, let's sit down and talk."

How could Zhao Ming dare to be so polite, and hurriedly said: "Manager, if you have any orders, please tell me, I will not sit down, so as not to delay your time."

The manager laughed loudly, then waved to Miss Hu, and said, "Pour a cup of tea for Comrade Xiao Zhao, and I want to talk to Comrade Xiao Zhao in detail."

Zhao Ming felt flattered when he heard the words, and waved his hands repeatedly to refuse.But Ms. Hu had already poured the tea and handed it to Zhao Ming herself.

Zhao Ming hurriedly thanked him, but he didn't drink, just looked at the manager while holding the teacup.At this time, Ms. Hu had already returned to the back of the manager, just standing there.

The manager took out an envelope, a little bulging, and it looked like it contained a lot of content.He patted the envelope and said with a smile: "I thought you would come at night, but I didn't expect you to finish the job so quickly. Not bad, not bad, it seems that the sandblasting machine is really good. You are also good."

Zhao Ming smiled and said, "You're being polite, I just borrowed the light from that machine to complete the task so quickly. All this is the leadership's training and trust, otherwise I would not be able to complete the task."

The manager pushed the envelope to Zhao Ming and said with a smile: "There is 300 yuan in it. The machine you made with your own salary and bonus was also left in the factory for use, so you can't be asked to pay. The 100 yuan in it The money is to compensate you, and the remaining 200 yuan is your bonus. Don’t shirk it, the extra 50 yuan bonus is to encourage you.”

How could Zhao Ming shirk?I was even overjoyed in my heart.

300 yuan is a lot of money, and it takes half a year for others to get it.

Zhao Ming smiled, and said very seriously and seriously: "Leader, it's wrong for you to be so polite. I am able to have what I am today is completely cultivated by the leader and the factory, and it is my honor to contribute to the factory. It is simply an honor to be able to share the pressure for the leader. What I am obliged to do cannot be measured by money."

Ms. Hu smiled when she heard it, and the manager was also elated when he heard it. He laughed and stretched out his hand, about to pull the envelope back.

However, Zhao Ming had quick eyesight and quick hands, grabbed the envelope directly, put it in his pocket under the stunned gaze of the manager, and said with a smile: "But since it is your kindness from the manager, I will not be disrespectful."

The manager coughed dryly, and said immediately: "This is what it should be. If you are polite, I will be in a hurry with you."

Then he waved his hand again, and Miss Hu hurriedly took out a document and handed it to Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming looked at this document, frowned slightly, and said, "Leader, what is this? Why is it all in English?"

The manager smiled and said, "This is the contract, all you need to do is sign it. I'll explain it to you later." After saying this, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and he quickly disappeared.

Zhao Ming read the document with a frown, and at the end, the manager became a little impatient, and said, "You signed it, can I still harm you?"

If it was an ordinary person, under the urging of the manager a few times, I am afraid that they would have signed with trepidation.I even worried that if I took a step slower, I would be hated by the manager.But Zhao Ming is different. He has stayed overseas, his thinking is more advanced, and he treats contracts more rigorously.

Especially for such foreign documents, is it necessary to use this English as a document contract in China?

Zhao Ming read all the documents with doubts, and immediately his face changed, and his eyes were full of anger.If it is an ordinary worker, even a few people in the office may not be able to understand this document.

But he is different, his English level is almost comparable to foreigners.Naturally, I can understand this document. Although it is said to be a contract, it is actually a scam.

He put down the teacup, put the document back on the desk, and swept over the manager's majestic face, his expression became indifferent, and finally said expressionlessly: "Leader, I want to know the contents of this document."

The manager said in a deep voice: "Didn't you read it? Or do you think I will lie to you?"

Zhao Ming ignored the anger in the manager's eyes and the oppression in his voice.Ordinary people are so oppressed by the manager, I am afraid they have already succumbed.If he hadn't read the contract before, he might have signed it, but he read it and understood it, so he ignored it.

Zhao Mingdao: "I don't know if the leader has lied to me, but I know this contract, I can't sign it, and I won't sign it."

"boom!"

The manager slapped the table and shouted, "Presumptuous, you don't trust me."

Ms. Hu knew how to look at her face, and quickly persuaded: "Xiao Zhao, you just got some grades, don't make the manager angry, sign this contract, and then go back to work. You can get more bonus than me Several times, it makes me envious. Do you still have any dissatisfaction?"

The manager was sullen and stopped talking, just staring at Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming smiled, his eyes swept across the faces of the two, and he finally understood.

Ms. Hu must have read the contract, and the manager knew about it.Moreover, this contract was made by them on the spur of the moment. It was really sinister to come up with such a contract in such a short period of time.

Now the two are here, one is singing the bad face, and the other is singing the red face.Ordinary people may have already succumbed to this model of giving a date with a stick.

It's a pity that they met Zhao Ming, a person who was used to wind and rain, and who happened to be able to speak English.

Zhao Ming said with a smile: "I know that the leader will not cheat me, and I also know that my bonus is more than the average person. But I really can't understand, what does it mean that the contract requires me to transfer the patent rights of the sandblasting machine to the company."

The manager and Ms. Hu were shocked when they heard the words, and they couldn't keep their blushing faces. They said in unison, "Do you understand English?"

Zhao Ming sneered in his heart. If he didn't know English, he might really be tricked by these two people.Judging from their appearance, it is obvious that they have already calculated it.Since the higher ups want to cheat him, he will not be polite.

"Understand a little, at least the clauses in it are understandable." Zhao Ming said calmly, without respect in his tone.

The manager didn't notice his tone at all, and after being silent for a while, he changed into a majestic look, and said, "Since you know it too, I won't have to translate it for you later, you can go back to work after signing it .”

Zhao Ming said calmly: "I will not sign it. I will only sell the patent of the sandblasting machine in the form of the right to use it, not transfer it. If the factory wants to own the sandblasting machine, I can take full responsibility for the manufacture. But the cost is not 100 yuan, but 150. As for the transfer, please don’t think about it.”

After a pause, Zhao Ming said loudly and forcefully, "This is impossible!"

The manager was taken aback for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Zhao Ming to dare to talk to him like that.Ms. Hu was also stunned. She opened her mouth, as if she wanted to persuade her, but she didn't say anything in the end.Zhao Ming understands the contract, their plan has been revealed, and it is useless to say anything now.

The manager got angry, very angry, slammed the table, and then swept Zhao Ming's teacup to the ground. With a "bang", the teacup shattered, and then there was the manager's growl.

Many people outside the door heard it. They didn't know what happened, but it didn't seem to be a good thing.

Could it be that Zhao Ming angered the manager?Or did he take credit for his arrogance and make the manager angry?

Everyone had guessed and blamed Zhao Ming.Immediately, they all bowed their heads to work, not daring to say anything more.

In the office, Zhao Ming calmed down instead, and just looked at the roaring manager, facing his anger without a trace of fear, but with a sneer.

After roaring for a while, the manager seemed to know that Zhao Ming would not be afraid of his majesty, so he fell silent, took a sip of tea, and finally sat down on the sofa, pointed to the seat beside him, and said, "You sit too. "

Zhao Ming sat down unceremoniously this time, and the two of them just stared at each other.

Miss Hu sighed and went to tidy up the broken teacup.

The manager took a deep breath and said, "You are a newcomer in the factory. Although you have some achievements, you still want to get promoted step by step. The current achievements are not enough. Do you understand what I mean?"

Zhao Ming nodded, but did not speak.

The manager said again: "The factory gave you a lot of bonuses, right?"

Zhao Mingdao: "A lot, four times." It is indeed a lot, but not much, he didn't say this.

The manager said again: "When you made the sandblasting machine, the factory allocated funds for you, otherwise you wouldn't be able to make it, right?"

Zhao Ming sneered, right?It was made by him with his own salary and bonus. It was said that it was reimbursed, but it was only because he succeeded, otherwise everything would be out of the question.
