Chapter 1296 - Retention

In fact, he had already guessed what Ji Feng would do with him. No matter when he was under Ji Yunhao, this act of going across the line was taboo to him!

Even in the most ordinary of enterprises, when a subordinate does this sort of thing without telling his superior, it would never be tolerated. Furthermore, it was the Tengfei Corporation, a corporation that could be said to have a high degree of authority.

Although there was still a certain gap between Tengfei Group and those established international multinational corporations, the difference was only in terms of the acc.u.mulation of funds and the long-standing connections at the international level.

For other companies, those large international corporations are all huge monsters, because they have developed tens or even hundreds of years before China, causing the amount of patent technology that these corporations have mastered to be extremely large, thus forming a series of patent barriers, allowing China to only become a factory in the world, earning the smallest amount of profit, and become a subst.i.tute factory downstream.

If Chinese companies wanted to develop their own technology, they would have to do so in some relatively unpopular industries. Otherwise, most popular industries, as well as important industries such as materials, biology, medicine, and so on, as long as they studied, they would encounter patent barriers.

However, the Tengfei Corporation was different.

Since the day of its creation, Tengfei Group had never touched on any patent barriers. On the contrary, Tengfei Group had continuously registered patents all over the world, from Slimming Medicine, to 3D Television, and even a new type of chromium alloy … And so on and so forth, but every industry that the Tengfei Group was involved in had a patent belonging to the Tengfei Group.

It could be said that as long as other companies wanted to carry out research in the same direction as Tengfei Group, or wanted to dabble in similar products, unless they created another brand and recipe, they would definitely come into contact with Tengfei Group's patent barriers. If a company dared to violate Tengfei Group's patent, the legal team would definitely sue the company until it went bankrupt!

The larger the corporation, the more it cared about this.

Therefore, in the past few years, most people had come to the Tengfei Corporation to discuss cooperation, or to discuss licensing and use of patents. Almost no one dared to offend the Tengfei Corporation's patents on the market.

If this was the foundation, then the laser guns and other weapons that Ji Feng brought out would be of epoch-making significance. And this allowed the Tengfei Corporation to have the capital and ability to form its own system!

A stable foundation, strong technology, and abundant financial resources.

At the same time, there was also a unique base, Island # 1.

The only obstacle was what Ji Feng was thinking.

Zhao Kai was well aware of Ji Feng's thoughts. As such, he could only choose to act first before acting.

However, he was also very clear about the consequences of his actions.

Even though he still had a little bit of luck, or perhaps, some hope, Zhao Kai was very clear on the fact that Ji Feng would not forgive him for what he had done.

Even if Ji Feng forgave him, the other executives of the company would never forgive him once the news got out.

Sending people to monitor Han Zhong and the other executives, just this action already made him stand against everyone.

Furthermore...

Zhao Kai even used Ji Feng's name to pressure Han Zhong.

"What are you going to do?" Ji Feng's voice suddenly rang out, causing Zhao Kai to be taken aback.

Ji Feng sighed lightly. He took two deep breaths and asked, "Since things have come to this point, what do you plan to do next?"

Zhao Kai's eyes immediately dimmed. This was the last thing he needed to do. After a moment of silence, he said, "I will resign and leave Island One. I will never step foot on Island One again."

Ji Feng replied with a sinking tone, "What about the intelligence team?"

Ji Feng replied, "You resigned. This is indeed very simple. But after you leave, what will happen to the intelligence team? Who will clean up this mess and shoulder this mess for you? I originally set up the intelligence team to gather commercial information for the Tengfei Group, and at the same time, to provide me with some useful information. If you leave, the entire intelligence team will probably be paralyzed.

Zhao Kai was silent.

As the head of the intelligence team, he was very clear on how useful the intelligence team was. As for the information gathered by the intelligence team, he wasn't sure how much help it would give to Ji Feng. Now, he suddenly realized that he had made a mistake, because when he made his decision, he had only considered the possibility of killing Ji Feng first before deciding on it.

However, now that Ji Feng did not agree, Zhao Kai could only resign. In this way, no one would be in charge of the intelligence team. Teng Fei Group had lost an eye. This was a huge loss.

In this way, not only did Zhao Kai not achieve his goal and bring any benefits to Ji Feng, but he also brought quite a bit of harm to the Tengfei Corporation.

"Where are you going after you resign?" Ji Feng asked.

"Maybe I'll go home."

Zhao Kai shook his head. "Maybe we should take a walk somewhere else. Maybe."

Ji Feng sighed and said, "Kai Zi, the two of us have known each other for a long time. You have never been so impulsive before. What happened to you this time?"

Ji Feng glanced at him and asked, "Is it that simple?"

He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He did not continue speaking, but the meaning behind his words was very clear.

Ji Feng could not help but frown, "You have never had such thoughts before. Or perhaps, it is you who has such thoughts but never said them?"

Ji Feng replied, "We'll talk about it in the future."

Ji Feng patted his shoulder and said, "Don't think about these things anymore. In the future, focus on your work. You can't say anything wrong, but it doesn't fit my plan."

For a moment, Zhao Kai did not know what to say, "Ji Feng, are you saying... You still want me to stay? "

"You don't want to?" Ji Feng asked.

"No, I just …" Ji Feng's reaction caused Zhao Kai to be at a loss of what to do. He didn't expect that Ji Feng would actually let him stay after committing such a heinous crime. This was totally out of his expectations.

"Ji Feng!"

Zhao Kai clenched his teeth. "You really want me to stay?"

"But …"

"Don't think too much into it, it's settled." Ji Feng waved his hand, interrupting Zhao Kai, "You still need to stay in the intelligence team, but in the future, the intelligence team can't exist as a separate department. Ji Feng waved his hand, interrupting Zhao Kai," You still need to stay in the intelligence team, but in the future, the intelligence team can't exist as a separate department.

Zhao Kai shook his head. "I have no problems with that."

Zhao Kai naturally did not have any objections.

Moreover, after experiencing this incident, he realized that there was something wrong with his mind. Furthermore, in some matters, he had overdone it.

"Then it's a deal." Ji Feng raised his hand to look at his watch and said: "Before we get off work, I still need to talk to Yi Xing. After Zhang Lei leaves the island, we can meet again when he returns and discuss the establishment of the Strategic Intelligence Unit."

Zhao Kai nodded.

… ….

Leaving behind Zhao Kai, Ji Feng knew that this would indeed lead to some internal criticism. There was no wall without air. Although among the executives, only Han Zhong knew that Zhao Kai had sent someone to spy on him, there was one other person that w.a.n.g Jun knew as well.

Furthermore, Ji Feng was not sure if there were others who knew or not. For example, if there were other executives who discovered that someone was following them and did not make any noise.

After all, what Zhao Kai had done was so obvious that it would not be hard for someone with ulterior motives to discover it.

But from a friend's point of view, Ji Feng did not want Zhao Kai to leave.

Not only that, although Zhao Kai admitted his mistake, Ji Feng still felt that something was a little strange. With Zhao Kai's intelligence, why was he so foolish this time around?
