Chapter 729: Being cheated by a gang



When Zhou Bin and Xiaohua walked into the office, the whole company was instantly in an uproar.

Everyone couldn't help but talk about it. It turned out that Ms. Zhou's father was so young and handsome, just like her brother.

Some people sincerely admired, no wonder Mr. Zhou is so beautiful, his father is so handsome!

Some people also speculated that Mr. Zhou’s mother must also be a great beauty, otherwise Mr. Zhou would not be so good-looking.

In short, everyone was so excited, as if they had discovered a new world.

But everyone was a little surprised to hear that Mr. Zhou’s father called Mr. Zhou Xiaohua.

It turns out that Mr. Zhou’s nickname is Xiaohua! It sounds quite down-to-earth!

Let’s not talk about the matter that everyone was happily discussing for now, let’s just say that Zhou Bin followed Xiaohua to her office.

Xiaohua quickly asked her father to sit down and personally brought him tea and cigarettes.

Zhou Bin took the teacup with a smile, took a sip, and then said, "I won't smoke anymore. My daughter is getting sick from the smoke."

Xiaohua said happily, "Dad, how come you came so quickly?"

Zhou Bin said lovingly, "My daughter is in trouble, so of course I have to hurry. Your mother and brother asked me to come quickly."

A warm feeling surged in Xiaohua's heart, and she hurriedly asked, "My mother, brother, and grandfather, are they all okay?"

Zhou Bin smiled and said, "They are all fine. They wanted to come too, but I didn't let them come because I was afraid of disturbing your work."

Xiaohua said with some regret: "Oh, I really miss them a little bit."

Zhou Bin smiled and said, "That's easy. When this matter is over, you can go home with Dad and play for a few days."

Xiaohua nodded: "Well, okay, let's go home together then."

Zhou Bin saw that his daughter didn't look too good, and asked hurriedly with concern: "Xiaohua, are you feeling unwell? I see that you don't look too well."

Xiaohua smiled bitterly and said, "Dad, I'm almost worried to death lately."

When Zhou Bin heard this, he realized that his daughter was indeed in trouble, and asked hurriedly, "Xiaohua, what happened that makes you so worried?"

Xiaohua looked around and said in a low voice, "Dad, our company is going bankrupt."

Zhou Bin was stunned and asked, "Huh? What did you say? Are you going bankrupt?"

When Xiaohua heard this, she was so scared that she quickly asked her father to lower his voice: "Shh, keep your voice down, it's true."

Zhou Bin was very surprised. Not long ago, Xiaohua told him that their business was developing very well.

And since last year, Xiaohua and his team have introduced new technical personnel and started to get involved in game design.

At that time, Xiaohua told her father on the phone that their business was unexpectedly good and they had also taken on an eight million project.

Zhou Bin remembered that he was very happy at that time and wanted to treat his daughter to a meal to celebrate.

Xiaohua said she was busy with work and would celebrate after the project was completed.

Zhou Bin didn't insist any more. How come Xiaohua's company was going to go bankrupt after just over half a year?

Zhou Bin felt it was a little unbelievable and asked his daughter the reason.

When Xiaohua mentioned this incident, she looked angry and then recounted what happened.

It turned out that just at the end of last year, a game company called Lingyu in Pengcheng found them and said that their company was preparing to develop an online game.

This game needs someone to design the characters and character designs, and I hope to cooperate with their company.

Xiaohua had just made the transition and was worried about having no projects.

So she was very happy and immediately expressed her willingness to take on the project.

When the other party heard that they were willing, they immediately urged them to send someone over to coordinate the project.

Xiaohua sent two technical backbones of the company and a vice president to fly to Pengcheng to learn about the project.

After returning, they immediately made a detailed plan for the project's design.

The whole company spent two weeks working tirelessly to complete this plan. After it was presented to the other party, they were very satisfied.

So the two parties agreed on the contract. According to general practice, the other party had to pay a 30% deposit before they could start designing.

However, the other party told them that the company could not pay the deposit in advance for the time being because of the huge initial investment and the need to ensure the development of the game.

Moreover, they asked Xiaohua to advance the money for the design, and would only pay them after the game was completed.

Xiaohua was a little reluctant at the time, but her desire for the project made her finally agree.

She felt that as long as her design was good, she would be able to get the money she deserved.

So they signed a contract with the other party, and then all the employees of the company started working intensively.

This lasted for half a year. Everyone worked hard day and night, and no one ever asked for a rest.

Xiaohua, like everyone else, is working hard in the company.

She promised everyone at the time that as long as the project was completed successfully, everyone would receive a corresponding bonus.

And because everyone worked very hard, Xiaohua increased everyone's salary over the past six months.

She also bought all the high-performance computers and software needed for the design with her own money.

Finally, their hard work paid off and their designs were all completed.

So she immediately asked the vice president to take the designed things to Pengcheng and deliver the design works to the other party.

However, something she didn't expect happened. The other party said that their design was not up to standard, refused to pay, and demanded that their company pay 50% of the project amount as liquidated damages.

Of course Xiaohua would not agree. She remembered that there was no such item in the contract terms!
