Boss Wang’s tasks given to the legal director extend beyond just this one.

"And these four companies, I want to sue them too! Sue them for breaching the contract!"

This is a complete urgency.

Upon hearing this, Director Fu found it impossible to keep his head down any longer. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

He took off his glasses, displaying a solemn expression of empathy with the boss’s emotions: "Boss, from my point of view, we still need to clarify things first; the law speaks of evidence."

"If things have progressed to this degree, it certainly means there’s a problem within our company—"

Upon hearing this, Boss Wang seemed reignited. However, Director Fu, responsible for legal affairs, clearly wasn’t allowing the boss to act impulsively and began the subsequent statement with great rhythm.

He pulled out a stack of information from his briefcase beside him—this gesture also made Chen Lizhou more certain that during the time he was late, the office was purely filled with the boss’s emotional output without discussing any actual business.

"—but all current clues indicate that the actions of the other party are entirely compliant, leaving us no evidence to catch."

Director Fu’s preparations were quite thorough. Besides providing the boss’s document, he also handed over a copy to Chen Lizhou and the HR Director.

Nan Zhubin did not receive one, but he didn’t mind. After shrugging his shoulders, he leaned over to Chen Lizhou.

While watching, Director Fu’s voice simultaneously rang out.

"Firstly, the first one—Jingcheng Manufacturing, 480,000."

"This client reported that four days ago, an email of unknown origin was sent to the project leader on their side," Director Fu stated, "The content was to remind the client that the existing system’s data volume was approaching the package limit, requiring an upgrade for continued use next year, with fees doubling."

Director Fu explained using concise wording as much as possible: "The email’s phrasing is standard, without defamation or misleading, and what is stated is true. Even if no one reminded them, the client would realize this fact in another two to three months."

"The problem lies at this timing... discovering it two to three months later and discovering it now, the effect is vastly different."

Now, everyone clearly understood what effect it was.

"This was the result of proactive communication by Director Chen. If not for him, we might not know the reason for Jingrui Manufacturing’s 480,000 loss now."

While speaking, Director Fu gestured to Chen Lizhou, but without waiting for a response, he continued.

"The client was already concerned about next year’s budget, calculated spending double the price, then turned to seek out competitors."

"With such an understanding of our internal information, the sender must be one of our own. However, in this process, the ’insider’ reminding the client of product precautions is not illegal... even if we find them, the most we can do is deal with them internally."

This statement finally ignited Boss Wang: "We suffered such a big loss, and we still can’t sue that traitor?"

No matter what answer is given, this question is hard to answer, so Director Fu simply did not reply.

He continued unraveling: "Second—Huatong Electronics, 350,000."

"This company also received an email, the content of which was an operational guide on data export, considered after-sales service. The client received the email and soon completed the backup of historical data according to the guide."

"But the problem was that the email also contained a company internal product maintenance notice."

"This notice explicitly stated that the free technical maintenance for the basic version would cease, with continued support only available for paid upgraded versions."

"And this matter... our company has never proactively informed Huatong."

Among the people present, Nan Zhubin was arguably the only one completely unaware of these affairs.

Listening to the "traitor’s" maneuver firsthand, he couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

"Therefore, Huatong’s reasoning is quite justified," Director Fu pursed his lips, "They said the data had already been backed up, and upon learning the basic version was about to stop free maintenance, further upgrades would require additional payments. Coupled with their existing needs, it’s reasonable to not renew."

"Sending product maintenance notices is a normal after-sales scope and doesn’t count as a legal act that can be held accountable."

Before the boss exploded in rage, Director Fu flipped to the next page to discuss the situation of the third client.

"Third—Xinrui Technology, 820,000."

"This situation also... in short, it received an email expressing continued follow-up on Xinrui’s requirements for next year and compiling a requirements list."

"Only at the end of the list, a note was added—’According to the company’s product roadmap, part of the requirements has no development plans in the short term; evaluation of alternative solutions is recommended’."

"The requirements and roadmap are true, short-term non-development is also a fact." Director Fu’s tone carried a hint of lament, "Our ’traitor’ didn’t lie, nor did they disclose any illegal secrets, but objectively informed the customer the requirements couldn’t be fulfilled."

"The client took the list to seek out competitors, and two companies could meet the needs, so they naturally made a switch."

Struggling to comment twice consecutively, Boss Wang’s face was almost turning red from holding back.

Director Fu continued relentlessly, moving on to inform about the last and largest loss.

"Guangda Group, 2.3 million."

"This one... most troublesome." Director Fu said, "Guangda Group didn’t receive an email or phone call."

"According to their claim, a few days ago, in the encrypted shared folder—which is the folder our company uses for routine work with Guangda, with permissions set to ’partner read-only’—they found a compatibility evaluation report for long-term strategic cooperation products."

"That report indicated compatibility risks between our existing products and Guangda’s business plans for the next two years, in addition to a subsequent upgrade cycle for three core modules... at least half a year later than our external commitments."
