Rusty Work Badge

Lin Yuan spent twenty years turning his small factory into a leader in precision manufacturing, but was maliciously attacked for refusing to capitalize. Internet upstart Fang Yu teamed up with foreign investors to short the stock price, spread rumors of bankruptcy, and raise funds at low prices. When Lin Yuan mortgaged his ancestral home, he found a note left by his father before his death: "Workers are the soul of the factory." He split the equity and distributed it to all employees overnight. On the day the acquisition was signed, Fang Yu proudly announced his controlling interest. The door of the conference hall was suddenly pushed open, and three hundred employees held up their equity certificates: "Who has the final say now?" Fang Yu sneered: "It's just retail investors, I can buy them all back tomorrow!" He casually clicked on the list of employee stock ownership platforms, and on the front page was his father's name and job number - the job number plate that was taken away by layoffs was lying in the inner pocket of Fang Yu's suit.
