Chapter 158: CHAPTER 158: Stolen Results
“Haha, I was waiting for you to say that. I’ll contact you before I get back. Let’s have a good drink. It’s been half a year since we last met, and we’ve been contacting each other on WeChat every day. It’s almost like we’re dating online.”
“Get lost, get lost, don’t disgust me.” Lin Yi laughed.
“How long are you staying here? I’ll take you to have fun for a few days.”
“That’s not certain. It’s a business trip, so I’m not sure how long I can stay.” Zhang Song said with a laugh.
“Boss, let me tell you something. If this project is successfully negotiated, I will jump up two levels in terms of rank at my company. By then, I’ll buy ten Zhonghua Sticks for you and make sure you always have enough to smoke.”
“Husrry up and stop smoking.” Lin Yi said with a smile.
“Tell me about the specific project. Maybe I can be of some help.”
Lin Yi knew Zhang Song’s situation very well.
After graduation, he worked in a technology company in Yanjing. It was said that the salary was good, but in a big city like Yanjing, he could only maintain his food and clothing. He was not rich by any means.
As his former roommate and best friend, Lin Yi wanted to help him, but it was not appropriate to give him money.
Thus, he could only go through alternate routes to try to help his friend.
He wanted to help him seal this deal as much as possible, then get a raise and a promotion to improve his living conditions.
However, whether he could win the fair, rich, and beautiful depended on his own abilities.
“Boss, do you know a company called Cisco in Zhong Hai?”
“Cisco? Of course I know of it. Could your project be connected to this company?” Lin Yi asked
Lin Yi did not know about this company called Cisco in the past.
However, after taking over Longxin, he had some understanding of the competitors in this field, and Cisco was one of them.
The company focused on semiconductors and microchips, and their research capabilities could not be underestimated.
Although they were not at the top, they were still a mid-to-upper-tier company. Their strength was on par with Longxin, and the pair had always been in a competitive relationship.
“Cisco has been incredible recently. Our boss heard through the grapevine that they’ve found a great tech genius. It’s said that they’ve solved the problem of the control unit’s programming. This will allow the domestic chip field to leap forward at least ten years. We’re the first to get the news, and we’re trying to win the next project without others knowing. When it’s done, we’ll be the leaders of the industry.”
“What did you say? Cisco developed the control unit program for the chip? is the information accurate?” Lin Yi was surprised.
“Of course it’s accurate. Our boss said it in secret. With his personality, he shouldn’t be wrong.” Zhang Song laughed.
“Boss, why are you so excited? Aren’t you in real estate? This thing doesn’t have anything to do with you.”
“You’re right, it really doesn’t have anything to do with me.” Lin Yi said with a smile.
“I still have something to do, so I’ll have to end the call here. Call me when you get here, and I’ll arrange everything for you.”
“Hehe, then I won’t stand on ceremony with you.”
“When the hell have you ever stood on ceremony with me?” Lin Yi scolded with a smile. “Alright, let’s not talk about it anymore. Let’s contact each other on WeChat.”
“Okay.”
Lin Yi fell into silence after hanging up the phone.
His expression was serious, and his brows were furrowed.
According to Sun Fuyu, the domestic chip industry had been stagnating, and most of the companies’ R&D had been stuck on the last control unit.
However, he had just written the basic source code a few days ago, and with Sun Fuyu and Lu Ying’s abilities, they should be able to finish the rest of the work soon.
How did Cisco get ahead of them and obtain the lead?
Could it be that there was a spy at the Longxin Institute?
Lin Yi called Sun Fuyu at that thought.
“Mr. Lin, you wanted to see me?” Sun Fuyu greeted politely.
“Where are you?”
“I just got out of the institute. I’m going home.” Sun Fuyu felt that something was off from Lin Yi’s serious tone. “Mr. Lin, did something happen?”
“Don’t go yet. Wait for me back at the Institute. I need to talk to you about something.”
“I’ll go back now.”
Lin Yi hung up the phone and drove to the Longxin Institute.
He saw Lu Ying as soon as he entered the institute. She was reading a thick stack of documents as she walked, her brows furrowed. It was obvious that she was studying the documents in her hands.
Lu Ying looked up and saw that it was Lin Yi. She immediately put down the documents in her hands.
“Director Lin, you’re here.”
“You’re still busy.” Lin Yi said with a smile, not betraying his emotions.
“I’ve finished all the procedures surrounding the control unit. I’m doing the third test, but there’s a small problem with the frequency hopping band. Don’t worry though, Director Lin, I’ll definitely solve this problem perfectly. I won’t delay it.”
Lin Yi paused for a second. “Put your work aside and come with me to the office.”
“Understood, Director Lin.”
Sun Fuyu had been waiting for Lin Yi when the latter arrived at the office.
“Mr. Lin, you’re here.” Sun Fuyu said.
Lin Yi nodded and sat down on the sofa.
“There’s news saying that Cisco has developed the final program for the control unit. One of you is the director, and the other is the technical backbone. Don’t you want to make a statement about this?”
“Impossible!”
The two of them said almost at the same time.
“This has been a problem for a long time. If it wasn’t for Mr. Lin, we wouldn’t have been able to solve it in the short term. I know Cisco’s strength, and they definitely don’t have the ability to make such a breakthrough,” Sun Fuyu said.
“That’s not what I’m talking about.”
Lin Yi rested his head on one hand, his face dark.
Sun Fuyu and Lu Ying stood to the side sulkily, not even daring to breathe loudly.
“From what I know, Cisco only came up with the final program for the control unit because they hired a technical genius, and that’s why they’ve made so much progress. If I’m not wrong, that person should be Liu Chu, the one I fired.” Lin Yi said.
“Liu Chu?!”
The two looked at each other in disbelief.
“I didn’t expect him to go to Cisco after he was fired. He’s practically throwing himself at the enemy!”
Bang!
Lin Yi slapped the table. “What’s going on in your heads? You two still have the time to focus on this after our technology was stolen?”
Sun Fuyu and Lu Ying looked at each other and understood what Lin Yi was talking about.
There was a traitor in the research institute!
However, they didn’t know who it was yet.
“Director, don’t worry. I can guarantee that there will be mistakes in their work. It won’t be as perfect as our program,” Lu Ying said.
“At this stage, they might be able to cheat the public, but they can’t fool the market. In the end, they won’t be a match for us !”
Lin Yi’s face was dark with anger. “It is absolutely right to say that you have no brains!”
