In plain words

If the company ended the contract unlawfully, the compensation (赔偿金) is double the severance standard, which is the commonly mentioned 2N. Whether it was an unlawful termination depends on the specific facts. Ask legal aid or a lawyer first, and then decide whether to negotiate with the company or go to arbitration.
