Hearing Le An’s words, Xu Lin immediately knew what was happening. This meeting was not to discuss how to improve the company, but to call him out.
Xu Lin said in a deep voice, “President Le, you’ve attended a few ordinary meetings. Basically, 1 don’t have the right to make any decisions. I gave a few suggestions, but no one listened.”
Chen Jue said unhappily, “Xu Lin, what do you mean? If you’re dissatisfied with us, you can just say it. Don’t beat around the bush. Our company is giving you a salary so that you can work, not complain!”
“Alright, it’s useless to say so much now. The most important thing now is to think of a way to deal with Xintao,” Liu Yi quickly said to ease the atmosphere.
He asked Xu Lin, “Lil Xu, because of the game, Xintao’s popularity is even higher than before. Also, we just found out that the warehouses rented by Speedy Express belonged to the Yin family. We also considered what you said about grading the delivery and tried to return a few warehouses. However, the Yin family didn’t agree to this and wouldn’t accept the benefits we offered. They insisted on following through with the contract. If we terminate the contract, we will have to pay a large sum of compensation for breach of contract.”
Xu Lin frowned and said, “Dear directors, it’s not like there’s no way to save Blue Fox now. At present, the biggest difference between us and Xintao is express delivery. The reason Xintao has no scruples is that their express delivery system is already mature and belongs to their own group. They don’t have to worry about being affected by the market. On the other hand, our express delivery is being outsourced.”
At this point, Xu Lin glanced at Sun Lei, who was looking at him unkindly.
However, even if he was hated by Sun Lei for this, he still had to say it for the sake of Blue Fox’s future development.
“If possible, 1 think we should focus on developing our own Zhongda Express Delivery. Even if we develop Speedy Express as well, it’s fine. However, I hope that Speedy Express Delivery will cooperate with us and build an exclusive express delivery that only works for Blue Fox!” Xu Lin explained his idea.
Sun Lei looked at Xu Lin with a hostile gaze. At this moment, it looked like he wanted to devour Xu Lin.
Back then, Blue Fox used his express delivery for their own experiments. After seeing that the results were not great, they suddenly wanted to withdraw the investment and seize the express delivery. If Speedy became Blue Fox’s exclusive delivery, he would suffer a loss.
Sun Lei thought for a moment and said, “I object!”
Everyone looked at him. Sun Lei cleared his throat and said, “Dear directors, please allow me to digress. Until now, Blue Fox has been suppressed by Xintao. The root cause is not express delivery. Think about it, Blue Fox’s express delivery is divided into grades. There are deliveries that can arrive every other day, and there are ordinary express deliveries that take up to a few days. For the faster service, the user has to bear the delivery fee alone. In order to save money, some users will still choose ordinary express delivery.
“However, Xintao’s normal delivery speed is not as fast as ours. What’s more, Speedy is free for users and very cheap for merchants.
“The actual problem is that Xu Lin has been helping outsiders. On the surface, he’s working for Blue Fox, but behind our back, he’s been secretly causing trouble!”
Xu Lin was stunned. He snarled, “Sun Lei, do you know what you’re saying? What evidence do you have to slander me like this?”
“Why? Are you getting angry because I hit the nail on the head?” Sun Lei sneered. “Don’t think 1 don’t know that you’re in contact with Cheng She. In fact, you want to jump ship to Xintao like he did.”
Seeing that the directors were looking at him warily, Xu Lin said angrily, “Sun Lei, you failed to pull me to your side in the past, so you want to frame me now? You’re wasting your time. What evidence do you have?”
“Evidence? Of course, 1 do.” Sun Lei looked at Xu Lin’s phone and sneered. “Do you dare to take out your phone now and show the directors that the vice president of Blue Fox was actually playing with Xintao’s app during working hours? Also, look at the call records. You don’t have any personal relationship with Cheng She, right? Why did you contact him?”
Chen Jue looked at Xu Lin and asked, “Xu Lin, what do you say? Can you show us your phone? Of course, it’s up to you whether you want to show us or not, but you know what you need to do to prove yourself.”
Xu Lin’s pupils constricted instantly. He looked at Sun Lei in shock. How did Sun Lei know about such a private matter?
Although he did not do anything to harm the company, he had indeed called Cheng She. If he showed the directors, it meant that what Sun Lei said was true. If he did not show it to them, they would definitely be suspicious of him. He feared he would not be able to keep his position.
At this moment, he was in a dilemma. In the end, Xu Lin chose to show everyone his phone..
