C423 Betrayal again

While he was lying on the bed, Zhou Hao was still reminiscing about the kiss he had made with Gao Jingyi in the small plaza.

It was sweet, greasy, soft, and heartfelt, and Gao Jingyi's words were still ringing in her ears.

"I borrowed a kiss from you. When I return from America, I will return it to you."

Gao Jingyi had even promised Zhou Hao that he would send her off at the airport at 10: 30 tomorrow morning, and Zhou Hao had also agreed to it.

Just as Zhou Hao was thinking about Gao Jingyi, the phone beside his bed rang untimely, and in the pitch black quiet room, it was extremely ear piercing.

Zhou Hao looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was 3: 45 AM. Zhou Hao muttered to himself: "Who's calling so late?"

"Hello, I'm Zhou Hao."

"Boss, boss, something happened in the factory!" Dai Hui's anxious voice came over the phone.

Zhou Hao's heart trembled, he immediately sat up from the bed: "What happened?"

"Boss, it's you …" Your father, he... "The factory …" Dai Hui seemed to be hesitating, speaking with hesitation.

"Speak!"

Dai Hui clenched his teeth and said, "Boss, your father …" He stole the formula for 'Fruit Orange'. "

"What!" The surface of Zhou Hao's heart suddenly tightened, and then, a wave of fury that came from exiting was released.

He suppressed the anger that was about to erupt and asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure it's him?"

"The surveillance footage shows him." After all, the culprit was Zhou Hao's father.

"Alright, I'll be there immediately." With that, Zhou Hao quickly put on his clothes and left the place for Huayu Village.

Originally, Zhou Hao had held back some hope for Zhou Liren. If he was really able to change his mind, Zhou Hao might have given him a chance to come back.

When Zhou Hao was resting in the Huayu Village, Zhou Liren did indeed perform very well. Every day, he would work on time, be fully committed to his work, and frequently run over to the Yan family. His relationship with Yan Mudong and the others also eased a lot.

But who would have thought that such a thing would happen?! Zhou Hao had only left the Huayu Village for a few days.

With the last sliver of hope in his heart shattered, Zhou Hao no longer had the possibility to forgive Zhou Liren.

Furthermore, there was another layer to it. If Yan Tong knew about this, she would probably be heartbroken, or even have a mental breakdown.

Because she had just reignited her hope for Zhou Liren, and now that he had extinguished her hope, how could Yan Tong endure it?

Therefore, when Zhou Hao heard about this from Dai Hui, his first reaction was to keep this matter a secret, especially from the Yan Clan.

Three hours later, Zhou Hao arrived at Huayu Village.

He did not let the people from the Yan Clan know of his arrival, but instead, drove straight into the factory building of the "Tianhe" and headed straight for Dai Hui's factory director's office.

Inside the office, Zhou Hao saw that other than Dai Hui, Li Chufan and Song Bo Qian were there as well.

Li Chufan and Uncle Song were the directors of the Technology Development Department, and the Fruit Jelly Orange was developed by them in the first place, so it was normal for them to know about this.

"Xiao Hao." Both Li Chufan and Song Bo Qian's face showed anger and depression. After all, the fruit of their painstaking research had been stolen by someone else just like that.

Only, that person was Zhou Hao's father, so both Li Chufan and Song Bo Qian did not fly into a rage, and instead endured it.

Zhou Hao said to Uncle Song modestly: "Uncle Li, Uncle Song, I'm really sorry. I didn't think of this matter either."

The one who committed the crime was his father, so it was Zhou Hao's responsibility to apologize to Li Chufan and the others.

Li Chufan raised his hand, "Forget it Xiao Hao, you don't have to blame yourself, after all, no one expected this."

Zhou Hao nodded his head and said to Dai Hui: "Tell me, what happened here."

"Boss, take a look at this surveillance video first." Dai Hui brought out a display screen in front of Zhou Hao.

Tianhe has electronic eyes installed in factories and offices, especially in the research room of the Technology Development Department.

This surveillance video was shot from different angles by the electronic eyes around the research lab. It could still be considered clear.

On the screen, the research room was empty. The staff had already left work, but there were two security guards at the entrance.

When the time indicated was 3.15 in the morning, a figure appeared at the staircase. It was Zhou Liren.

He walked directly to the research room and greeted the two security guards with a smile. However, when he reached the two security guards, he suddenly took out a bottle of insecticide-like spray and sprayed it onto their faces.

After the two security guards were sprayed on, they successively fell to the ground and fainted within a few seconds. Zhou Liren then took out the key to the research room from them, and then smoothly entered the research room.

In order to prevent the technical staff in the research lab from feeling like they were being watched, "Tianhe" did not install any electronic eyes in the research lab, so Zhou Liren did not do anything inside the research lab as the surveillance footage did not show anything. When he came out, he had a briefcase in his hand.

Looking at his disappearing figure, Zhou Hao was expressionless, but his eyes were clearly filled with suppressed rage.

Li Chufan took this time to speak: "The briefcase he took away contained the formula for 'Fruit Jelly Orange' and our research data."

He turned to Davy. "Are the two security guards okay?"

When Dai Hui heard Zhou Hao's words, he was exceptionally touched. This was because Zhou Hao did not immediately ask about the losses, but first paid attention to the safety of his employees.

"They're fine," he said. "The spray should be some kind of sleeping pill."

Zhou Hao nodded his head, then turned to Li Chufan and asked: "Uncle Li, so only 'Fruit Jelly Orange' was stolen from us this time?"

Li Chufan said: "Yes, luckily the data on the Ice Black Tea and Green Tea were placed in another place, if not we would have suffered heavy losses.

"This time, all that's been stolen is the recipe for 'Fruit Orange' and some related data."

"However, according to our current sales price of 'Fruit Jelly Orange', if Zhou Liren were to sell the formula and experimental data to the Coca-Cola Company or any other beverage companies, it would be a huge blow to us."

Because Coca-Cola had wanted to buy Tianhe, and also for the fruit orange, if they got the recipe and developed the same kind of fruit drink as the fruit orange, they would immediately snatch the market that Tianhe worked so hard to run.

After all, in terms of reputation and management, Tianhe, which was still in its early stages of development, was far inferior to Coca-Cola.

"Although we have already applied for a patent for the formula of 'fruit orange', both domestically and internationally.

However, if there really is a company that gets the formula and develops the product, it would be very difficult for us to sue them because it is very difficult to obtain evidence. "

Lawsuits over patent competition have always been protracted, and Tianhe is in the midst of a rapid development and has no time to deal with the nuisance.

Zhou Hao thought for a moment, then said to Dai Hui and the others, "Even if the other companies have obtained the formula, it doesn't matter. Our title has already been established, and 'Fruit Orange' is our product, it has already completed its mission.

Our Milky Way can't rely on just one product to grow old. Uncle Li, Uncle Song, you guys hurry up and develop our iced tea series and quickly develop our tea drinks. This is the trump card of our 'Milky Way'. "

"Also, Director Dai, you have asked the advertising department to create an advertisement for me. The theme is to encourage consumers to support national enterprises and support national products. "In another two years, it will be the fiftieth anniversary of our country. You can let the people from the Advertising Department make use of this as an excuse."

Zhou Hao said, his actions was to guard against the Coca-Cola Company really obtaining the "Fruit Jelly Orange" formula.

If both "Tianhe" and "Coca-Cola" produced fruit drinks, Zhou Hao could also use his national pride to make the consumers lean towards "Tianhe" and minimize the impact of the Coca-Cola on himself.

However, right now, he did not know which business Zhou Liren was going to sell the recipe to. Or rather, he did not know which company would be the one to order Zhou Liren to steal the formula from.

But, Zhou Hao believed that the answer would be revealed very quickly.

This was because the Sky River's' Fruit Jelly Orange 'had already established its foothold in the domestic beverage market, no matter what the enterprise wanted to compete with the' Sky River 'or do, they had to quickly take action, and at that time, Zhou Hao would know who it was.

He clenched his fists tightly and sneered in his heart: "I want to see who exactly it is. No matter who it is, I want him to regret this matter!"

Zhou Hao hated the people behind the scenes to the bones. It would have been fine if they were just competing with the people in the "Milky Way", but this time, they allowed Zhou Liren to betray them once again. This time, they would even deeply injure Yan Tong.

He had already decided that no matter who the other party was, he would ruthlessly defeat the other party and let him suffer a crushing defeat!

At the same time, he told Dai Hui, "Other than those who already know about this, no one else should know about it, especially my uncle and the rest. Whoever dares to leak it, immediately dismiss them and never hire them!"
