My rebirth is different

Chapter 520 The Best Law Firm
After the news that Ogilvy Software sued the winger game platform for copyright infringement, it caused a sensation in the entire Internet circle.

These days, there are too many things like copyright infringement and piracy on the Internet. If you really want to investigate, no one's house is clean. Of course, everyone should pay attention to the judgment of such cases.

Because this is likely to represent the future direction of the wind.

Once Ogilvy Software wins the lawsuit, everyone should restrain themselves to avoid being pursued and sued.

If the winger wins the case, it means that the country still doesn't care much about the Internet, and everyone should do what they want, and just do it boldly.

After Effie heard the news, she was also taken aback. She didn't expect that the foreigner boss of Ogilvy Software would sue so hard.

"Mr. Ai, shall we continue to develop the battle function?" The manager of the technical department asked anxiously. He led the team to develop new functions around the clock for the past two days. .

"Continue! Of course we must continue to develop. What are we afraid of? Don't you know that the company just received [-] million US dollars? Ogilvy will lose this lawsuit, and they probably know it themselves. When he loses the lawsuit, we will buy it. !” Effie said with a cold smile.

"Ah? Why did you lose? Ogilvy does have the agency rights for those games." The manager of the technical department asked in confusion.

"It's not easy? Winger Games has been operating in Hangzhou for so many years. Ogilvy went to other people's territory to fight a lawsuit, and it was still in the Internet field where the laws and regulations are not clear. It's no wonder he won!" Effie said disdainfully.

The English Xiangjiang boss of Ogilvy Software has been operating in China for so many years in vain, and he doesn't even know the basic situation.

Of course, it's also possible that someone knows they can't win, but they are just so angry that they will sue you regardless of whether they win or lose!

Facebook Game remains indifferent and continues to develop the online battle function, because the developed functions are much more than that of the winger platform, so the speed is not so fast.

The Tencent game platform is a bit of a pain. They had already developed the platform, but because of the data center problem, the platform was not launched in a hurry.

As a result, the data center had just been built, and the winger suddenly set up a battle zone, which stole the limelight. Tencent looked at it and said, no, we have to use this function!

So the development team copied the battle area of ​​the winger, and just finished it, the platform was about to go online, and Ogilvy sued the winger game again.

Brother Xiaoma and the others discussed it, come on, let's wait a few more days, otherwise he was afraid that Ogilvy would directly add Tencent to the defendant.

That would be too unlucky, the game platform would be sued as soon as it was launched, and the reputation would be bad.

Tencent is preparing to wait and see, and after the lawsuit is judged, it will decide how to go next, and it will not be a few days away.

…………

After finishing the internal financing of the Facebook game, Yu Wenfei was not idle. After thinking about Effie's plan repeatedly, he came up with a new idea.

April NO.20, Yu Wenfei took Hu Jingjing and flew to the capital quietly.

Come here this time, he has a big event to do!
…………

Capital Global Law Firm, which is one of the best law firms in China, the lawyers with domestic lawyer license number 001 and 002 are all from this law firm.

In addition, this law firm, formerly a state-owned enterprise, was named "China Council for the Promotion of International Trade Legal Counsel Office", and was employed by the National Development and Reform Commission as a legal consultant for a long time.

This is also the first law firm established in China after the reform and opening up.

The founder of the law firm is domestic lawyer No. 001 and the chairman of the lawyers committee. After being transferred from here, he will become the president of the Supreme Court...

There is no need to introduce this background.

The headquarters of Global Law Firm is an inconspicuous building. It looks old. The floors are not high, only a dozen floors, but the area is not small.

Although it doesn't look very good on the outside, its geographical location cannot be ignored. It is located on Chang'an Avenue, close to the core of the capital.

After Yu Wenfei and Hu Jingjing arrived in the capital, they checked into the hotel directly, washed and rested for a while, and asked the hotel to send a car to Universal Law Firm. Before coming, they had already made an appointment with each other to meet.

Lawyer Fang Zhiyan is in his early forties this year. He is at the age of high spirits and the golden age of a lawyer. He has rich experience and quick thinking.

He is a senior partner of Global Law Firm. He graduated from the Law Department of Peking University with a bachelor's degree, and then went to Harvard University Law School in the United States for further study. After graduating with a Ph.D., he worked in a large New York law firm for several years, and was recruited back by Global.

After years of hard work, Attorney Fang has also achieved the position of senior partner.

"What time will the client arrive this afternoon?"

After the lunch break, Attorney Fang returned to his office, and his assistant also walked in, so he asked.

The assistant opened the notepad in his hand, "At two o'clock, I just confirmed with the client that they are on their way and will be there soon."

Looking at the watch, the assistant added: "Oh, there are still 10 minutes."

Lawyer Fang nodded in satisfaction, "I don't have any other arrangements for this afternoon, do I?"

"At four o'clock in the afternoon, the Capital Lawyers Association has a report meeting, and you want to speak."

Lawyer Fang frowned, and after a little thought, he said decisively: "Call the association and tell me that I can't leave today, and the speech will be cancelled!"

"Okay. If there's nothing else, I'll check the living room." The assistant said briefly.

Lawyer Fang nodded, and the assistant opened the door and walked out.

Reaching out his hand to pick up the large file folder that he had prepared, Lawyer Fang came to the sofa and sat down, flipping through the documents in his hand.

In the afternoon, this client had a lot of background. For this interview, Attorney Fang also prepared for several days, collecting various materials in several large folders.

Of course, Attorney Fang's work attitude has always been very rigorous, even for small clients, he will take them very seriously.

However, with his qualifications, he has basically had no chance to contact any small customers over the years.

"Facebook Technology, Facebook, Facebook Games... Valuation is 40 billion US dollars, the first round of financing is [-] million US dollars... Major shareholder Yu Wenfei, Softbank Capital, Jiaotong University Venture Capital..."

The client's information is played back in the lawyer's mind like a movie screen.

He focuses on intellectual property and commercial disputes, and he really didn't know much about Facebook before.

He doesn't like blogging. The time in a big law firm is too precious. It may be worth hundreds of dollars per minute. How could he waste precious time on blogging?

This time, after the client consulted and made an appointment to meet, Attorney Fang asked his assistant to collect relevant information on Facebook technology.

Don't look at it, look at it!
Is the Internet industry so profitable?
Facebook Technology has only been established for more than half a year, and its scale has reached such a large scale, with more than 1 million registered users, and the company's valuation is 40 billion US dollars!

In contrast, Global Law Firm is a bit pitiful. With such a powerful background, the people working there are definitely the best of the best. As a result, the annual turnover is only more than 20 billion yuan.

If it is really going to be listed, it is estimated that the market value will not exceed 50 billion, which is still RMB!

Of course, it is impossible for a law firm to go public because it is a partnership system.

A law firm is a very strange enterprise. Here, everything is people-oriented!
There is no R&D and marketing investment, and the only operating cost of the company is labor cost!
Of course, some may still have the rent of office buildings, such as Universal, which has its own building, even saves the rent.

Whether a law firm can be famous, whether it can make a profit, and whether it can win the trust of clients all depends on how many well-known lawyers you have.

Therefore, here the boss cannot take all the profits alone, even most of the profits are impossible, because barristers have to participate in the profit distribution.

If a case is received and various lawyer fees are calculated, and the law firm gets 100 million, at least 100 million of the 60 million will be given to the lawyer who hosts the case, and the rest can be counted as the law firm’s gross profit. .

A barrister, he himself can basically be regarded as a company with extremely good profits, and it is a company that has no operating risks and will never lose money.

Therefore, in order to attract more good lawyers, law firms are very generous, and the treatment they give is very good.

Lawyer Fang is one of those top lawyers. Talents like him, whether in the United States or China, are of course high-income earners.

Over the years, Attorney Fang has taken on one or two big cases a year, and served as legal counsel for several large companies at the same time, easily earning several million a year.

But when he saw the profile of the founder of Facebook Technology, he couldn't help feeling jealous.

19 years old, worth more than 30 billion US dollars!
I have read all the books for so many years in vain. For more than ten years, I have always been the most outstanding one among my peers. Looking at it now, I can't compare with other 19-year-olds!

But Lawyer Fang just thought about it this way. He is a person who has seen the world and understands that life is different.

The world is so big, and there are always very few people who can achieve what most people can't achieve even if they work hard all their lives.

Maybe this Yu Wenfei is the kind of "extremely special" person, which is not something I can envy.

He was thinking about the client's information with his eyes closed when there was a knock on the door and the assistant walked in.

"Lawyer Fang, the clients are here. I'll take them to the living room. It's time for you to go."

Hearing this, Lawyer Fang opened his eyes, stood up, moved his body, rubbed his cheeks, and became refreshed.

"The tie is a little crooked, let me tie it for you."

The assistant came forward and carefully helped Lawyer Fang straighten his tie.

"Thank you, let's go there." Attorney Fang smiled.

"Come on!" The young female assistant gently raised her fist.

Both of them understand that what they are going to face today is undoubtedly a big customer, a very big one!
Such clients are rare even in Global Law Firm.

If this case can be won, it will last for several years, so of course we must treat it with caution.
