An intern at a Shanghai company won an Nvidia RTX 5060 GPU at an event during a business trip, causing a dispute when the company demanded he hand it over since the trip was fully paid for by them. Despite legal discussions and pressure from higher-ups, the employee refused to surrender the GPU, leading to his resignation that night. Lawyers sided with the intern, stating that a prize won by chance belongs to the individual, regardless of the circumstances. This incident highlights the importance of standing up for oneself in corporate environments.
