Xia Xia time, January 27th, 11: 00 p.m.
Shi Lei was already lying on his bed, ready to fall asleep. However, he suddenly received a bad news notification from Izur through the sound system. Shi Lei calmly put on the LIP Lens Information Processor and prepared to check the so-called bad news.
Shi Lei was not worried about the severity of the bad news. If it was an emergency, Izur would have notified him and not just described it as bad news.
After putting on the LIP Lens Information Processor, Shi Lei immediately discovered that the so-called bad news was indeed bad news.
The Lijian Province branch of Dream Entertainment was on strike!
The reason was that the Lijian Province branch of Dream Entertainment did not give its employees an annual bonus. However, the head office in Xia Xia gave its employees a generous bonus.
The employees of the Lijian Province branch of Dream Entertainment could not accept such discriminatory treatment. They resolutely decided to go on strike.
Lijian Province's CBS News at noon even reported on this matter. Izur also sent the relevant video to the LIP Lens Information Processor.
…
"Good afternoon, everyone. Today, we have received a shocking piece of news.
That's right. It's very shocking. It even involves racial discrimination! "The CBS News at noon said exaggeratedly.
Although racial discrimination had always existed in Lijian Province, this issue could never be brought up in public.
Any public statements or actions that expressed racial discrimination would definitely be severely punished.
"Every citizen of Lijian Province knows that racial discrimination is a very bad thing.
However, a world-renowned online entertainment company openly discriminated against the citizens of Lijian Province.
This company is Dream Entertainment, which has recently become famous all over the world. "
"According to the employees of the Lijian Province branch of Dream Entertainment, the head office of Dream Entertainment, which is located in Shuangqing City in Xia Xia, announced a generous annual bonus on January 27th.
However, the annual bonus this time did not include the Lijian Province branch of Dream Entertainment.
They did not even explain why they did not give the annual bonus to the Lijian Province branch of Dream Entertainment. "
"This is serious racial discrimination!
Dream Entertainment shouldn't treat the citizens of Lijian Province this way!
According to our reporter's interview with the employees of Dream Entertainment's branch in Lijian Province, Dream Entertainment's branch in Lijian Province did not give their employees annual bonuses during Christmas or New Year's Day.
Originally, the employees were looking forward to it. Because this was an overseas company owned by Mr. Xia, the employees thought that the annual bonus would be distributed according to Mr. Xia's Spring Festival schedule.
However, the employees of Dream Entertainment's Lijian Province branch clearly misunderstood. Dream Entertainment's head office has forgotten about them! "
"Now, the employees of Dream Entertainment's branch in Lijian Province have started to go on strike. They are waiting for the head office of Dream Entertainment and even the parent company, Mirui Technology Group, to deal with them. I wish them good luck.
At the same time, I appeal to the head office of Dream Entertainment, Mr. Xia Xia, and Mirui Technology Group to abandon their unfair racial discrimination. "
…
CBS and CBS's noon news was clearly trying to smear Dream Entertainment's reputation. This wasn't the first time they had done something like this.
However, this time, they had truly grasped the truth about Dream Entertainment.
Whether it was Shi Lei or Mu Shuang, they had really forgotten about the issue of the overseas company's year-end bonus.
The overseas company didn't celebrate Mr. Xia's Spring Festival, right?
However, before the first wave had subsided, another wave had arisen. Izur had given them another piece of bad news.
"Sir, please continue to check the next piece of bad news."
If Izur was a living human, he would definitely show a gloating expression.
If Izur was trying his best to simulate a human, he could also show a gloating expression through logical calculations and analysis. However, that wasn't a real artificial intelligence after all, was it?
Shi Lei continued to use the LIP lens information processor to check the next piece of bad news.
This piece of bad news came from another one of the three major commercial radio and television companies in Lijian Province, NBC National Broadcasting Company.
Behind this company was the existence of a giant company, and that was General Motors.
It wasn't the useless General Motors, but the giant General Electric. In the future, it would be ranked third in the world's top 500 companies!
With the support of General Electric, NBC National Broadcasting Company had no qualms about broadcasting news.
This time, they were also broadcasting news about Dream Entertainment.
…
"Good afternoon, everyone!
This is NBC's noon news.
Now, we bring you the latest news. After the employees of Dream Entertainment's Lijian Province branch went on strike, all of AMD's employees in Lijian Province went on strike.
"According to our reporter's understanding, Dream Entertainment once used despicable means to obtain absolute control of AMD's shares through the stock market. It was almost illegal.
They also used some unknown means to influence the Lijian Province's Ministry of Justice and officially took over AMD.
"According to the relevant information, Dream Entertainment split AMD into four parts, including AMD's central processing unit company, GPU graphics display device card company, Imageon mobile handheld device image processing company, and low-power mobile device CPU central processing unit company.
Among them, Dream Entertainment owns 90% of the shares of the first two companies, and 100% of the shares of the latter two subsidiaries.
"Based on the number of shares held, Dream Entertainment is indeed AMD's parent company.
This also explains a problem. Why didn't the employees of AMD, which is also part of Dream Entertainment, enjoy the annual employee bonus of Dream Entertainment? "
"Although our reporter interviewed some AMD employees, their annual bonuses in previous years were very little, but it wasn't completely absent.
Originally, AMD's employees thought that after Dream Entertainment took over AMD, they would receive better treatment. However, that wasn't the case at all. They didn't receive better treatment in terms of salary, bonus, and benefits.
"According to the incomplete statistics of a third-party non-profit organization, AMD relied on Dream Entertainment's sales revenue in 2007, which exceeded the sales revenue of the three years from 2004 to 2006.
AMD's performance in 2007 was very good. Even if it wasn't as good as its competitors, its market share had increased by a lot.
AMD, which has achieved such results, actually didn't give its employees an annual bonus?
"We will continue to pay attention to the collective strike of AMD's employees. We hope that Dream Entertainment's parent company, Mirui Technology Group, will give AMD's employees a fair environment and not discriminate based on region and race."
…
Dream Entertainment had a branch company in Lijian Province, DIP Communications Research Company.
The chief technician and CEO, Bai Dewen Paul, also discovered the strike of Dream Entertainment's Lijian Province branch company and AMD.
The company's senior executives and core technicians, Croft and Brad, were in Bai Dewen's office discussing whether to join the collective strike.
"Bai Dewen, what do you think of this matter?" Brad respected Bai Dewen and asked for his opinion first.
Bai Dewen thought for a while and asked, "Brad, how many employees do we have in our company?"
Brad replied with certainty, "Including the three of us, there are a total of 70 official employees."
"We only have 70 employees, Brad. Do you think we need to join the strike?
No matter what the result of the strike of AMD and Dream Entertainment's branch company is, why should we participate?
Once they win, do you think we won't get the same annual bonus?
If they fail, we shall have another chance of survival.
Do you understand? "Bai Dewen saw the situation clearly.
Biding their time was DIP Communications Research Company's choice!
Croft clapped and said, "Bai Dewen, you are always the smartest one!
You are right. We won't participate. We will watch the show. "
Shuangqing City, Xia Xia.
The virtual transparent screen of the LIP lens information processor showed that Mu Shuang was calling.
Shi Lei chose to answer the call. Mu Shuang's cold voice came through.
"Shi Lei, do you know about the situation in Lijian Province?" Mu Shuang asked directly.
Shi Lei replied, "Yes, I know."
"How do you plan to deal with it?"
Mu Shuang asked Shi Lei. When Shi Lei did not answer, Mu Shuang continued, "Shi Lei, don't be impulsive. Some things can't be dealt with openly.
We have indeed not considered this matter thoroughly. The strike of the employees in Lijian Province is pardonable. "
"Shuangshuang, what do you mean?"
Shi Lei was not a fool. Although he was not proficient in company management, Shi Lei was proficient in controlling people's hearts. Of course, he knew that at this time, he could not forcefully announce that Dream Entertainment was racist and would not give the employees in Lijian Province an annual bonus.
If that was the case, Shi Lei would definitely be an idiot!
"Shi Lei, what I mean is that we should give the overseas employees an annual bonus as a reward for their hard work this year," Mu Shuang said affirmatively.
Shi Lei laughed and said, "Shuangshuang, I think so too."
Mu Shuang heaved a sigh of relief. "It's good that you think so. I was worried that you would make a mistake!"
"Shuangshuang, how stupid do you think I am?" Shi Lei laughed and joked.
Mu Shuang snorted and showed her cute side. "It's good that you know how stupid you are!"
"By the way, Shuangshuang, how much should we give the overseas employees an annual bonus?" Shi Lei asked seriously.
Mu Shuang thought for a moment. "Based on the local economic index and the quota from our headquarters."
"What if they are not satisfied?" Shi Lei asked again.
