Xiaomi Heavy Industry, its first entrepreneurial venture!

Chapter 181 Mr. Murata Ichiro, Don't Be Afraid! (First Update!)

Li Jiewei spoke with a calm expression and a gentle tone.

It gives the impression that they are compromising and making concessions.

After hearing his words, the reporter who had spoken earlier waved his right hand dismissively and replied:
"this……"

"Never mind, I don't know what you do, but I need to tell you, a journalist is someone who dares to speak the truth."

“If your products have quality problems, then as the voice of the people, we must speak out about this and let the whole world know.”

"What you need to do now is to take legal responsibility and compensate Mr. Murata Ichiro."

“Besides Mr. Ichiro Murata, you also need to compensate other consumers. That’s the responsibility a company should have.”

The reporter used a clever maneuver to try and steer the question back on track.

But Li Jiewei didn't respond; he simply turned to look at Murata Ichiro:
"Mr. Murata Ichiro, since you say we should take responsibility, may I ask you a few questions?"

Looking at the gentle-faced Li Jiewei, and then at the reporters behind him, Murata Ichiro raised his head high and emphasized, "Okay!"

With Murata Ichiro's permission, Li Jiewei waved behind him.

Liu Yongqiang and his public relations team immediately approached, using several cameras to block Murata Ichiro, and at the same time, they also used cameras to block the others.

Li Jiewei pointed at the camera and continued with a smile:

"Mr. Ichiro Murata, we will record everything you say from now on. Do you have any questions?"

With several large cameras looming over him, Murata Ichiro felt a little guilty and wanted to slip away.

But when he turned around, the reporters behind him cheered him on.

“Mr. Ichiro Murata, don’t be afraid, we are here to support you.”

"With us here, they won't dare do anything to you!"

"If he dares to touch you today, we'll fight them to the death."

"Mr. Ichiro Murata, charge forward bravely!"

Amidst the cacophony, Ichiro Murata also spotted someone.

That man was the burly guy who gave him money a couple of days ago; he was the middleman.

When he looked over, the burly man also looked over. Their eyes met, and the man nodded slightly before turning his head to look elsewhere.

With that one glance, Murata Ichiro knew he had to move forward today, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get the money.

Turning his head, he smiled contemptuously at Li Jiewei: "Whatever. If you don't pay compensation today, you're dead."

“Okay!” Li Jiewei gave an impeccable smile, then opened the document he had been holding, nodded to Murata Ichiro, and asked:
"Has the fire department certified the location of the fire as the origin of the fire?"

"No!" The answer was quick and decisive.

After answering, Murata Ichiro stared intently at Li Jiewei, trying to glean some clues from Li Jiewei's face.

In order to deal with his subsequent questioning.

However, Li Jiewei simply took a pen, wrote the word "no" on the document in his hand, and then slid his finger to the second question:
"Did the fire department explicitly state that the fire was caused by a problem with the electrical appliances?"

"no!"

"Did Mr. Ichiro Murata send the product for testing?"

Murata Ichiro was somewhat at a loss after failing to get persistent questioning on either of his two questions.

After all, he had made thorough preparations before coming here, ready to fight tooth and nail with the people from Xiaomi Heavy Industry.

If we've made all the preparations, and these people don't make a move, wouldn't it make us look like we've prepared in vain?

We cannot allow the other side to continue to maintain the initiative!
Having made up his mind, Murata Ichiro crossed his arms and snorted coldly:
"Submit for testing? Why should I submit it for testing? Your product has quality issues, why should I submit it for testing? What does it have to do with me?"

"Is it free to send it for testing?"

"My rented house burned down, and now I have to pay the landlord to compensate me. You're asking me to pay for the test results?"

"What kind of logic is that?"

Why should I be blamed for this? What does it have to do with me?

The more he spoke, the more confident Murata Ichiro became, and his voice grew louder and louder.

As he spoke, the reporters behind him began to voice their support.

"That's right, you're just shirking your responsibility."

"What you're thinking is simply to make consumers bear this cost, but when consumers can't afford it, they'll choose to give up on their own, and then you're not wrong."

"Hmph, Mr. Murata Ichiro, don't be afraid. If you want to submit it for testing, we'll help you crowdfund."

Across from him, Li Jiewei's slightly upturned lips curled up even higher upon hearing this, but he quickly suppressed the smirk.

While everyone was talking loudly, he raised his hands and clapped them.

The applause interrupted their chatter and drew their attention to him.

When these people looked over, Li Jiewei turned around, and Liu Yongqiang behind him handed him a black leather tote bag.

Li Jiewei took the tote bag, opened it, and showed the contents to everyone.

banknote!

Red!
Very festive!
Folded neatly!
banknote!

“Here’s 50!” Li Jiewei pointed to the handbag.

As soon as he finished speaking, Murata Ichiro stepped forward and reached for the bag, saying, "I'm so sorry, I'm not that greedy."

"Once the compensation is paid, I can forget about this matter."

However, the moment his hand touched the bag, Li Jiewei slapped it away.

The force was so great that it almost knocked Murata Ichiro to the ground.

Murata Ichiro swayed, steadied himself, and then glared angrily at Li Jiewei.

Li Jiewei's actions thoroughly excited the reporters.

They frantically pressed the shutter button, capturing this moment.

They had even already conceived the corresponding words in their minds.

Xiaomi Heavy Industry is abusing its power and maliciously oppressing consumers who come to protect their rights.

Xiaomi Heavy Industry would rather waste money than protect consumer interests.

Xiaomi Heavy Industry...

After the reporters finished taking photos, Li Jiewei put the bag of money on the ground and straightened up:

"Knowing you were coming today, I contacted several professional testing organizations before I came to see you."

"This money is for their testing fees."

"Once they arrive, they will dismantle your so-called Mi Home refrigerator right in front of you."

"Scrape out the refrigerator wreckage bit by bit."

“In addition to the testing agency, we also contacted the market supervision administration and reported the incident to the police.”

"Today, we will settle this here and now, not only who is superior, but also who lives and dies."

"If it turns out that the problem lies with us, Xiaomi Heavy Industry will be dissolved today."

"If it's discovered that anyone committed fraud, then you will all die!"

"Every single one of them has to go in."

This sentence was like a boulder crashing onto the calm surface of a lake.

At this moment, the reporters who had been speaking up for Ichiro Murata suddenly remembered that the other party had given him a lawyer's letter the moment they arrived.

The lawyer named Li Yang, who was next to Ichiro Murata, also received a lawyer's letter on the spot.

This……

This doesn't look like a joke at all!
Thinking this through, the few people a little outside the crowd began to back down and decided not to continue trying to grab the news.

However, as they prepared to slowly and quietly retreat, they discovered that several people had appeared around them. These people were tall and burly, all dressed in security guard uniforms, and they formed a human wall.

They wanted to retreat, but the other party simply stood there blocking their way.

I looked up, and the other person returned a smile.

Seeing this, the reporters on the periphery understood what it meant to decide both the winner and the loser, and even their life.

Since someone has to go out lying down today, that person can't be myself.

Turning around, they began to vigorously support Ichiro Murata.

Inside the office building, Lin Yi stood by the window, quietly watching everything unfold.

After watching for a while and finding it uninteresting, he turned around, went back to his desk, picked up his phone, and called Meng Hai.

As soon as the call connected, Meng Hai's voice came through the phone:

"We're here! We're almost here!"

Hear the words.

Lin Yi pulled a pair of binoculars from the drawer, took his phone, walked to the window, and scanned both sides of Xinglong Road, but saw no one.

“I’m in my office, and I can’t see you through my binoculars.”

Meng Hai was completely dumbfounded by Lin Yi's seriousness.

He kept saying into the phone, "I'll be there soon! 10 minutes, no, 5 minutes at most."

After telling him the time, Meng Hai immediately hung up the phone.

After finishing his call with Meng Hai, Lin Yi found Yu Jixuan's number and dialed it.

The call connected quickly, and Yu Jixuan's slightly anxious voice came through the phone:

"Mr. Lin, we'll be there in about 10 minutes."

"This time we found a total of 20 people willing to help us."

"We also brought their home appliances with us."

"Slow down!" Lin Yi said, then hung up the phone and continued watching the commotion from the window.

The noise at the factory gate continued, and a few minutes later, a convoy of more than a dozen vehicles stopped by the roadside.

The car doors opened, and a large group of people disembarked.

The convoy was led by cars and followed by vans.

Some of the people who got out of the cars headed towards the factory, while others headed towards the deep-set vans.

The back door of the van opened, and the men worked together to unload some equipment from the back door. Then they carried the equipment in a grand procession to the factory gate and stopped.

Upon seeing the person appear, Lin Yi tossed aside the binoculars, turned around, and went out the door.

main entrance.

The reporters were quite flustered when they saw the convoy appear.

In just a moment, they had already imagined countless times what it would be like to be beaten.

But when the people in the car appeared, they were stunned again.

The people who got off the car were none other than prominent experts and testing personnel from Shanghai's electronics and home appliance industry.

What surprised them even more was that in addition to regular staff, there was also a lot of equipment.

As a testing organization, we need to go through a very complicated procedure when testing a certain item.

These procedures prevent them from moving the equipment to the site.

But now, they've actually brought over some equipment.

This is absolutely outrageous.

Meng Hai slowly approached the gate from the crowd. He quickly glanced at the crowd, then turned around and led the few people behind him toward the guardhouse.

They had just arrived when Lin Yi arrived as well.

Meng Hai pointed at Lin Yi, then turned to the people behind him and introduced him:
"The CEO of Xiaomi Heavy Industry, Mr. Lin Yi."

Turning back, he introduced several other people to Lin Yi:
"Lin Yuanheng, Dean of the School of Electronic Industry Information at Shanghai University, is also the President of the Yangtze River Delta Electronic Quality Association. His testing company is called Quality Inspection Union."

"Yi Dashan, the vice dean of the School of Electronic Industry and Information at Shanghai University, also serves as the vice president of the Yangtze River Delta Electronic Quality Association. His testing company is called Dadi Testing."

"He Wenbin, Dean of the School of Information Industry at Tunghai University, is also the Vice President of the Yangtze River Delta Electronic Quality Association. His company is called Ouge Testing."

"This is Captain Wang Xiaowu of the Shanghai Fire Brigade."

After introducing the people, Meng Hai naturally stepped aside, leaving the scene to Lin Yi and the others.

Lin Yi stepped forward, extended his hand, and shook hands with the four people in turn.

"Hello, Dean Lin!"

"Hello, Dean Yi!"

"Hello, Dean He!"

"Hello, Captain Wang!"

After shaking hands, he pointed to the noisy crowd:

"I'm sure the four of you have already seen this news, so I won't go into too much detail here."

"My people will probably arrive in about 10 minutes."

"You can prepare in advance."

"Hmm!" Lin Yuanheng gave a soft "hmm," turned around and smiled at Yi Dashan and He Wenbin, then walked towards the staff of the Quality Inspection Department.

While these staff members were setting up their workbenches, Yu Jixuan arrived with her convoy.

The workers who came with him quickly got off the truck and hurriedly unloaded the refrigerators of the same model that were being transported from the truck, placing them in the locations designated by the three testing companies.

After completing the preparations, Lin Yuanheng and his two companions personally took a document, pushed through the crowd, and handed it to Murata Ichiro:

"Hello, we are now commissioned by Xiaomi Heavy Industry to disassemble and evaluate the product in your possession."

"This is the informed consent form for the expert evaluation. Would you please sign it?"

Three people, three documents, stood together in front of Murata Ichiro.

This gave Ichiro Murata a huge headache.

He didn't want to be tested.

Turning around, just as he was about to say a few words to Li Jiewei, who had spoken first, the reporters behind him started egging him on:
“Mr. Murata Ichiro, don’t be afraid. We know these three people. They are all from well-known testing institutions in Shanghai.”

"Besides, we have cameras here. Even if they find a problem, we can record it. We'll have video evidence, so there's nothing to be afraid of!"

"Well said, Mr. Murata Ichiro, don't be afraid!"

“We are all your witnesses, we are all your supporters.”

After the reporters finished speaking, Li Jiewei waved the document in his hand again:
"Mr. Ichiro Murata, you have two choices today."

"First, refuse testing, and then I will formally convert the lawyer's letter into a court complaint based on the evidence we have collected."

"You'll have at least three years, and after that you'll be deported immediately."

"These journalists behind you have really captured a lot of attention lately."

"It has damaged our business reputation."

"They won't go to jail, but they'll lose money, lots and lots of money."

"Article 2 allows these three experts and their teams to conduct the testing."

"Use concrete evidence to prove us wrong!"

"Dissolve Xiaomi Heavy Industry."

"So, Mr. Murata Ichiro, don't be afraid!"
