老干妈商业机密遭窃取 原来是内鬼所为!
A former employee has been detained by police on suspicion of disclosing the secret of China's best-known hot sauce Laoganma to another producer in southwestern Guiyang, Southwest China's Guizhou province.
日前，中国著名辣酱品牌老干妈的一名前员工被警方逮捕，原因是其将老干妈的配方泄露给位于中国西南部贵州省贵阳市的另一生产商。The man surnamed Jia was seized after a three month police investigation and now faces criminal charges in a case that involves tens of millions of yuan.
历经三个多月的侦查，警方一举将贾某抓获，他现在正面临一涉案金额高达千万人民币的刑事起诉。Laoganma Special Flavor Foodstuffs Co in Guiyang's Nanming district produces a variety of popular sauces such as oil chili, beef soybean and flavored chili chicken.
老干妈风味食品有限责任公司位于贵阳省南明区，主要生产如辣椒酱、牛肉豆瓣酱和风味鸡油辣椒等一系列广受欢迎的产品。
In May 2016, it found another local food processing company made highly similar products. In November, it reported these concerns to police, suspecting its business secrets were being stolen.
2016年5月，老干妈公司发现当地的另一家食品加工公司生产了与自己极其相似的产品。11月，老干妈公司向警方报案，怀疑其商业机密遭到窃取。A subsequent police investigation determined that Laoganma's unique trade secrets were identified in the products of the competing food company, which had no history of making chili oil sauce.
在警方随后的调查中，他们在其他食品公司的产品中检测出了老干妈的独家配方，而该公司并没有制作辣椒酱的历史。Later, police focused the investigation on Jia, who worked as quality technician and engineer among other posts at Laoganma from 2003 to April 2015. From November 2015, he used another name to work at the food processing company and was responsible for its quality management.
随后，警方将注意力锁定到贾某身上，他曾于2003年至2015年在老干妈公司担任技术员和工程师。从2015年11月开始，贾某使用另一个名字，在本地另一家食品加工企业任职，从事质量技术管理相关的工作。A large amount of internal information about Laoganma's trade secrets were found on Jia's external hard-drive and computer.
警方在贾某的移动硬盘和电脑中发现了大量涉及老干妈公司商业机密的内部资料。China's criminal law stipulates a no less than three years and not more than seven years prison term and a fine for those who steal, disclose or use commercial secrets that causes significant loss to those holding related rights.
根据《中华人民共和国刑法》，盗取、披露或使用商业机密的行为，并给商业机密的权利人造成重大损失，将判处三年以上七年以下有期徒刑，并处以罚金。
