Chapter 537 Why are you stabbing me in the back?

Master Ni sat on a chair in the laboratory all night, as blank as a sculpture.

It was not until the sun rose and the sunlight from the window shone on his body that he moved and came back to life.

He still debugged the test sample of the programmable switching system yesterday because people from Hong Kong were coming to check the progress today.

But during yesterday's debugging process, several colleagues looked at him strangely, as if he had been suspected and guarded against overnight.

Master Ni was very depressed. When he first came back, the atmosphere in this unit was so good! Although there were only twelve people in total, everyone trusted him and looked forward to him leading them to a better tomorrow.

But now, I have become a stumbling block that hinders everyone from becoming rich.

Yes, a stumbling block.

Several colleagues who support Mr. Ni quietly revealed that Manager Liu claimed that he had found a way to make everyone rich, but some people ignored everyone's interests and insisted on blocking others' financial path.

That is to say, the company is bound by a contract with the Hong Kong side, and such money-making matters cannot be made public. Otherwise, Mr. Ni would probably be buried in the spit of several colleagues by now.

But fortunately, at least half of my colleagues support Mr. Ni.

This small unit with only twelve employees had no stable income since its inception. It was only in the few months after signing the contract with Hong Kong Island that it began to pay salaries and bonuses steadily.

Moreover, seeing that the research is about to succeed ahead of schedule, after the bet bonus is received, even if it is all converted into RMB according to the foreign exchange rate, it will be enough to sustain everyone for a long time.

Therefore, between the benefits that were in sight and the "big pie" that Manager Liu had painted, these people chose to be safe and chose to trust Master Ni.

At 8:10 in the morning, Manager Liu brought a group of people to the laboratory and began to explain and demonstrate the equipment that had been assembled and debugged, treating Mr. Ni, who had been sitting there all night, as a decoration.

Master Ni had no intention of going over to stop them. As long as the technical information was not leaked and the samples were not taken away, they could look at it however they wanted.

Even if you look at it for three days and three nights, you will not be able to imitate it successfully.

Master Ni already understood what Manager Liu meant yesterday. The results of the research will definitely be given to Hong Kong Island. After all, there is still a balance of millions of dollars!

However, the Fourth Post and Telecommunications Factory will also achieve a technological breakthrough and be the first to develop another type of programmable switching system, and then occupy the mainland market.

"We have reported this to the ministry. As long as the product meets the technical requirements, we will start the pilot this year and roll it out nationwide next year."

"Director Jiao, our newspaper technology is definitely up to standard. We have gone through two rounds of testing, and all indicators have exceeded those of Fujitsu F150, reaching the international advanced level. We are fully qualified to receive this year's Science and Technology Progress Award."

Listening to the pleasant conversation between Manager Liu and several factory personnel, Master Ni had no expression on his face, but just sighed helplessly in his heart.

We spent countless days and nights on this programmable switching system, and also referred to the most cutting-edge technical information provided by Hong Kong Island, before we were lucky enough to develop it successfully.

But after success, the so-called credit may not necessarily fall on the technicians.

The Science and Technology Progress Award is a tempting piece of cake. If we follow Manager Liu's arrangement, the award will definitely go to others, and our unit will be compensated with a large sum of benefits.

But how much of this benefit can be distributed to each individual?

Just at this moment, a colleague came running in in a panic.

"Manager Liu, I just received a call. The people from Hong Kong Island will be here in half an hour."

"Half an hour? So early?"

Liu Lianxiang was a little surprised because it was not even half past eight, and considering the Hong Kong people's nine-to-five habit, they should not be there before ten o'clock.

The product has just been demonstrated and I haven’t had time to get the technical information from Mr. Ni!

But the colleague hadn't finished speaking yet.

"Manager Liu, the call was not from Hong Kong Island, but from the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications. They said that Director Pan will come to visit with the people from Hong Kong Island, and asked us to prepare for the reception."

“.”

Liu Lianxiang was stunned for several seconds, then turned to look at Director Jiao.

Director Jiao just said that he had reported it to the department, so is it his relationship?

But Director Jiao also shook his head in shock and asked Liu Lianxiang: "How did Hong Kong Island get in touch with Director Pan?"

Director Jiao's meaning was very clear. Lao Liu, are you kidding me? I have a department-level person as my backer in my system, but you are playing tricks on me?

I have already submitted my research results? If I fail, you are going to kill me?

"I don't know?"

Liu Lianxiang was also confused, and it took him a long time before he looked at Master Ni.

Master Ni looked at the looks his colleagues and Liu Xiang gave him, his face full of confusion.

Liu Lianxiang asked with a complicated tone, "Old Ni, since you have a backer like Director Pan, why didn't you say anything?"

Ni Dashen answered subconsciously: "Who is Director Pan?"

“.”

"Could it be that the people from Hong Kong Island are just making this up?"

"I don't know! There are a lot of fake scammers these days."

. . . . . . . .

Twenty minutes later, with the arrival of a Red Flag car, all the doubts disappeared.

Even though it is no longer the era when only ministerial officials could ride in a Hongqi in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the 1985 Hongqi car was not something that ordinary people could afford to ride in, and scammers don't have that ability.

Master Ni also stood up in surprise, and saw a group of people coming towards him.

He saw Veronica, the project manager from Hong Kong, and Li Ye, the team translator, but he did not recognize the middle-aged man surrounded by everyone in the front.

A colleague quietly approached Master Ni and whispered, "That's Director Pan from the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications. I saw him in the newspaper a few days ago. He seems to be one of the persons in charge of telecommunications reform. Master Ni, you are really ruthless this time!"

"I didn't."

Master Ni feels very wronged, he really knows nothing.

However, Liu Lianxiang had adjusted his mentality at this time, and greeted him with a smile on his face. He took the boss to visit the program-controlled switch that was just assembled last night, and repeated what he had just said to Director Jiao.

The boss was very happy and said with a smile: "I heard that your small unit has achieved great results, and it has not used a penny of national funds. That's great!"

Liu Lianxiang nodded repeatedly and smiled happily.

But the next moment the boss asked again: "A few days ago, the Fourth Post and Telecommunications Factory reported to the Ministry that they had successfully developed a program-controlled switch. Compared with yours, whose technology level is higher?"

“.”

Whose is higher? They are the same thing, right?

. . . . . .

The boss was very busy and left quickly, but just a dozen minutes made Manager Liu sweat profusely.

After finally dealing with it, the only ones left on the scene were Veronica's Hong Kong Island team and a pilot team from the postal and telecommunications department.

Liu Lianxiang was a man of the times and he quickly figured out who was in charge and who was the follower.

Although the leader of the pilot group was a young girl, her surname was Pan.

He is so young, but he is taking the lead in the pilot project. Just thinking about it makes us dare not neglect him.

So Liu Lianxiang smiled and said, "Team Leader Pan, look."

Pan Xiaoying didn't even let Liu Lianxiang finish his words, and said directly: "We are only responsible for technical issues, and you can talk to the Hong Kong side about the rest. Who is the technical person in charge here?"

“.”

Liu Lenovo suddenly understood.

While I was thinking about getting rid of the Hong Kong side, some people were also planning to get rid of me.

"Old Ni, why are you stabbing me in the back?"
