"What's the rush to see me about?"
"It's about the game console."
"What happened? Has something happened?"
Wyatt Roy shook his head. "It's nothing. It's just that my family wanted this project, but I refused."
He gave Zhang Hongmei a wink. Only then did she notice that there was another person in the meeting room.
"What does that have to do with me?" Zhang Hongmei looked at Wyattroy, puzzled.
"It has little to do with you and Carlos in the short term."
“Wyattroy, Carlos and I aren’t so easy to talk to. You have no right to give up your shares without our consent; I remember that’s what was written in our contract.”
Wyattroy laughed. "Yeah, that's what I told them too."
"Is there anything else?"
"It's a project that the family wants you to help them come up with, the kind that's very profitable."
Zhang Hongmei smiled after hearing Wyatt's words.
"Do they think I'm some kind of god? Besides, I'm a member of the McCann family now. Even if there were such a great project, I wouldn't let anyone know."
"Hehe, it's really not good for you to say it so bluntly."
Zhang Hongmei rolled her eyes at him. "What's wrong with that? I'm just telling the truth."
Wyatt Roy's smile faded. "Zhang Hongmei, we've always had a very pleasant working relationship, and I don't want any unpleasantness to arise in the future."
"Wyattroy, are you out of your mind? If you're not thinking straight, go see a doctor. I've said from the beginning that I'll only work with you. The first accounting software project was a collaboration between the two of us. Although it had your family seal, that was just a guarantee for me, not a collaboration with the family."
The combine harvester deal was also an agreement between the two of us. Although the Roy family was giving me a share of the profits, it was something we discussed and agreed upon together.
You're acting really strange today. And most importantly, I'm not a god, and I can't come up with super profitable ideas all the time.
"I don't know what your Roy family is thinking, but as the eldest daughter of the McCann family, I can start a company with friends, but I can't partner with other powerful families on my own. Do you understand?"
Wyatt was secretly laughing; Zhang Hongmei's reaction was quick, and her judgment was extremely accurate. "I understand."
"You don't understand. I'm warning you again. Go back and read the agreement carefully. Don't wait until something goes wrong and then you say I lied to you. The agreement clearly states that if the original shares are transferred without the consent of the other shareholders, you will lose everything and have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages. Furthermore, the other partners have the right to reclaim your shares."
As you know, each of these projects we've collaborated on is worth thousands of times more than it was initially. So, Wyattroy, if you want to breach the contract, you'd better be prepared to pay the penalty.
Wyatt lowered his head, unable to hold back any longer—this girl's mouth! But this was very good. A bunch of shameless scoundrels, seeing the money coming their way, couldn't sit still. They truly didn't want to admit they were family. Now Zhang Hongmei was acting so resolutely. Very good.
If you are unable to pay the penalty for breach of contract, then your family should bear it.
Let's see if anyone still finds fault after they hear this news.
I genuinely can't stand some people in my family. Dad's really getting old. He can't keep those people in check anymore.
He sighed. "We're friends, you wouldn't be so cruel, would you?"
"Why not? They can scheme against even their own family, and they'll do anything for money. Why can't I, an outsider, do the same?"
"But some of the money you earn still comes from the Roy family?"
"Hehe, you've really opened my eyes. Even without me, you could still develop a combine harvester based on my design, but it might not be you. Don't you think so, Young Master Roy?"
And you've forgotten who I am now, haven't you?
Wyattrouy fell silent. The person sitting next to him lowered his head even further. He had already recorded their conversation and would listen to it back with the elders.
But this young lady from the McCann family is too formidable! Even Wyatt couldn't handle her.
"Zhang Hongmei, I understand what you mean. I'm sorry to have taken up your time today."
"It's alright. As long as you don't do anything stupid, I'm still very willing to take up some of my time teaching you. But remember, don't bring up these issues with me again."
Even the best friendships can't withstand this kind of friction. I don't want our collaboration to end badly. I'm Chinese, and I take certain things very seriously. I'm a bit superstitious, though, and I'm afraid that when things are going well for me, someone might cause trouble.
Your current performance is what it is, so as the largest shareholder, I demand that you provide full compensation, which is just one month's dividend.
Wait, let me finish. You don't need to be dissatisfied. If I make this mistake again in the future, I will compensate you double.
Zhang Hongmei, you're too cruel!
"Is that too harsh? How about three months? Please write an IOU or something to prove it."
"That's too much, isn't it?" Zhang Hongmei just smiled and didn't say anything.
"Then I'll leave now. This will never happen again. I promise you."
"I hope you can keep your word."
"Of course, this situation will absolutely never happen again."
“Fine, but you still have to keep your one month’s share as compensation for me.” Zhang Hongmei wouldn’t budge an inch. She needed to let the people behind Wyattroy know that she wasn’t someone to be trifled with.
Wyatt Roy gave a wry smile. "Fine, one month's pay it, I'll take it. I'll write the statement."
"Hehe, I believe you this time, no need for proof. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."
"I'm leaving too."
"Don't you have a car? Do you want me to give you a ride?"
Wyatt Roy shook his head. "No need, it's a family car. You should go home."
After Zhang Hongmei got into the car, she watched it drive away, then leaned on the steering wheel and burst into laughter. It was so funny. I wonder if Wyattroy was satisfied with his performance.
This cunning man doesn't seem to have had a very smooth life in his family. I'll help him if I can.
After laughing enough, I drove home. On the way, I bought a lot of fruit. We can't do without it at home now.
When she got home, Cheng Guangxu and the other two weren't there. Shen Yunfang told Zhang Hongmei that they had gone next door.
Wang Xinyi came out and asked, "Hongmei, where have you been?"
"I went to the company and met with Wyatt. Aunt Wang, come and have some fruit." The two chatted casually until everyone else returned.
“Hongmei, the three of us discussed this for a whole day, and we just felt that if we want the computer to be portable, it has to be small. The parts also have to be small. We are also worried that if the parts are small, will it affect the computer's processing speed?”
