Protagonist:

Lin Yi

His attitude was extremely arrogant, arrogant enough that even Lin Bin, who was currently feigning death and drinking tea, couldn't help but raise his head, his face showing curiosity, and then he carefully sized up the person in front of him.

His height was about 1.7 meters or so. Although he was wearing a suit, it was obviously ill-fitting; the baggy suit worn on his body gave off a kind of monkey-in-a-crown feeling.

He had a center-parted hairstyle, making it hard to tell his age.

After staring for a moment, he again turned his gaze onto Lin Yi.

At this moment, he was very interested in the compensation this suddenly arrived person spoke of.

Beside the desk, Lin Yi's fingers rested on the desk tapping lightly, and with his silence, the air pressure in the entire office seemed very low.

Even the air became somewhat viscous at this moment.

After tapping for a while, a smile appeared on Lin Yi's face, but he did not speak to the person opposite; instead, he picked up the desk phone and dialed out:

"Get a few people over here for me."

Putting down the phone, Lin Yi turned his head and dragged the mouse, starting to create a new folder on the computer.

Then he created a new file inside the new folder, clicked to open the file, and switched to English input method.

With the sound of fingers pressing keyboard keys ringing out, lines of text appeared in the file.

In a few minutes' time, a burst of footsteps rang out in the corridor.

The door was pushed open again, and ten-odd people wearing blue work clothes, with Thirteenth Bureau Construction safety helmets on their heads, appeared at the doorway.

Seeing these people, Lin Yi pointed at Jiang Hao: "Beat him up, throw him out!"

Just six short words, containing two commands, but the meaning inside the commands made Jiang Hao and Lin Bin freeze on the spot.

The reason Lin Bin froze was because from the contact these past few days, Lin Yi was a person who plans before acting.

Every step of his had a scheme.

How could such a person be so direct and crude?

There must be a reason inside this!

As for Jiang Hao, the reason for his daze was simple: he was a middle-level manager at Smailer Electronics, specially responsible for receiving and spot-checking goods from various OEM factories.

It could be said he held the power of life and death over the various OEM factories.

At this moment, he still remembered that last time he came over, Lin Yi treated him with utmost respect.

But now, this young man actually wanted to directly beat him out!

After a brief daze, Jiang Hao slammed the table, his whole body standing up, the hand that slammed the table pointing straight at Lin Yi:

"You surnamed Lin, you dare move a single finger of mine today, just try it."

"If you touch me, the money the company owes you, you won't get a single cent."

"Not only will your money not be gotten, you'll also have to pay my medical expenses!"

Jiang Hao's attitude was extremely arrogant, but his body movements were very honest; while he spoke, he was slowly walking outward.

Just as he walked out two steps, his peripheral vision caught that index finger of Lin Yi's right hand pointing at him; the next second, those five-big-three-thick workers at the doorway spread their arms and directly pounced toward him.

The office actually wasn't large; the distance between the two sides was only two or three meters.

Before Jiang Hao could make any move, those few workers had already pounced before his eyes.

Then sandpot-sized fists smashed onto his face.

Followed by size-43 labor protection shoes, ruthlessly stomping onto his body.

From the moment both sides made contact to Jiang Hao letting out a miserable scream, the interval in between was no more than four or five seconds.

After ten-odd seconds, those few workers retreated backward, leaving only Jiang Hao lying on the ground wailing.

He laboriously raised his head, bearing a beaten-swollen face, and again laboriously raised his hand pointing at Lin Yi: "You wait for me..."

Before he finished speaking, his face took another hit.

This hit hurt a lot; Jiang Hao only had time to let out a cry before he was directly dragged away by these few workers.

Before the door closed, Lin Yi shouted toward the doorway:

"Remember to throw him in a place without surveillance."

The door closed again, and Lin Bin, who had witnessed the whole process, finally came back to his senses, patted his chest with his hand, eased a breath, and only then carefully sought confirmation from Lin Yi:

"Does this person have a grudge with General Manager Lin?"

"The electric rice cookers in our hands are OEM'd for this factory; according to the contract, however much goods are delivered, that much money is given."

Speaking to here, Lin Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head, then explained:

"In '06, my dad and them don't know whose words they listened to, and took out a loan to acquire that 200-plus mu of land next door."

"To guarantee there were orders in hand, my dad and them agreed to these dog things changing from 'however much goods delivered, that much money given' to 'pay half the funds, and the remaining half settled with commercial acceptance bills' without changing the original contract."

"And they were one-year commercial acceptance bills."

"After the 2008 financial crisis erupted, even cashing commercial acceptance bills, they started dragging it out."

"Some time ago, last year's commercial acceptance bills matured; I went to find them to cash out, and these people actually made me pay interest."

"Me not beating them to death is already the limit of me as a human."

Finished explaining, Lin Yi's gaze again fell back onto the computer in front of him.

Seeing him so busy, Lin Bin was also very curious; by rights, at the critical juncture of falling out with the product merchant, Lin Yi should put his focus on finding a partner, but he was still tapping away in front of the computer.

Obviously he didn't care about this matter.

What is he thinking?

"Is there already a cooperation partner?"

"Or are there other ideas?"

Carrying curiosity, he picked up the teacup, stood up, and came to behind Lin Yi.

The footsteps did not make Lin Yi put down the work in hand, but instead he continued tapping away on the keyboard.

Lin Bin stared at those English contents for a while, and a trace of strangeness gradually emerged on his face.

After a long time, waiting until Lin Yi finished typing a page, he then asked half-jokingly, half-seriously:

"Does this Smailer Company product mainly export to Europe and America? This is hurting the enemy one thousand while damaging oneself eight hundred! And you're cursing too filthily!"

"Mm!" Lin Yi nodded, and backhandedly pulled out a file from the drawer.

This is an English file, from the Import and Export Commodity Management Department under the EU Directorate-General for Health and Food Safety.

Of course, the file's receiving unit is not Lin Laosan Electrical Appliance Factory, but Smailer Company.

"This is me replying to the EU according to their requirements." Finger tapping on the file, Lin Yi turned his head and continued typing the file.

Another two hours passed, the document typing finished, he then found some photos from the computer, and pasted the photos into the document.

Finally exported the document to pdf, saved.

Opened VPN, logged into a Google Mail, entered the EU Directorate-General for Health and Food Safety Import and Export Commodity Management Department email, clicked send.

Seeing the send success prompt pop up, Lin Yi then took away the file above, revealing the file below.

That was a file from the US FDA.

Copied the email from the file, dragged the same pdf file in, then clicked send.

Seeing the send completion message pop up, he then found the send records in the email, deleted, then thoroughly cleaned.

Done all this, he again climbed the Internet, climbed Twitter, first registered an account in the name of Smailer Company.

Registration passed, he immediately changed the account avatar to Smailer Company Door photo, and posted several photos taken when he went there before as updates.

Finished posting updates, he then pasted the photos of those two files to the updates.

And pasted the scolding letter he just wrote below the updates.
