My rebirth is different

Chapter 527 The Lawsuit Is Just a Means
Facing Facebook is a completely different feeling than when facing Ogilvy & Mather.

Although the court has not yet opened, the winger is already in disarray.

First, there is the overwhelming advantage in public opinion. Facebook Games acquired Ogilvy and Mather, and obtained the game agency rights. In addition, Yu Wenfei personally wrote an article to "bombard" the shameless piracy and infringement of the winger.Many legal professionals and public figures followed up and criticized, all of which gave the whole society a very bad impression of winger.

In the past few days, in Winger Games' own forum, the pages have been flooded with various posts denouncing Winger Games' infringement.

It can be said that the popularity and daily volume of the winger game forum these days far exceeds that of the winger game platform. You must know that in the past, almost no one spoke on this forum.

Obviously, most of these people who came to post are fans of Yu Wenfei...

If it's just netizens' spontaneous condemnation, then that's fine. The wingers can pretend not to see it, and it won't make them lose anything.

However, the news from other channels made the fourth winger a little panicked. According to people familiar with the matter, some leaders in Hangzhou City are very dissatisfied with the winger game company and the district court that ruled winger in favor of the last time, and they think it is them The things you did have caused people all over the country to have a bad impression of the city of Hangzhou!
Because of such a small lawsuit, there has been a lot of trouble, and people all over the country think that local protectionism in Hangzhou is serious, which can easily affect the good situation of attracting investment in Hangzhou.

The big leader deliberately cited the example of the winger winning the lawsuit at a certain meeting, as a negative teaching material...

Although the judiciary is managed vertically and local leaders cannot affect matters in the judiciary, they understand the national conditions.

It is conceivable that there is no need to fight the next lawsuit. In order to eliminate the adverse effects, it is necessary to use the winger to operate.

This is why Yu Wenfei took the lead in launching a public opinion offensive before the lawsuit started, because in this field with blurred legal boundaries, whoever occupies the public opinion will win!

There is Yu Wenfei, a hugely influential figure on the Facebook game platform, and he is indeed the victim.

As for the wingers, who will stand for them...

Don't talk about the platform, in fact, someone has already greeted and said that the winger should solve this matter as soon as possible!
And it's best to solve it before the trial, otherwise, it will push the court into a dilemma.If the first verdict was for the winger and the second verdict for Facebook, it would be self-inflicted.But if the winger is awarded the second time, it is absolutely impossible. Under the current situation, no one dares to commit crimes against the wind.

So the best solution is to settle the matter in private, the two parties reach a settlement, Facebook withdraws the lawsuit, and the winger compensates, so everyone is happy.

In the past few days, the winger fourth young master was so worried that he lost a lot of hair.

"No! We can't go to court. If we lose the case like that, everything will be irreparable. How about this, I'll go to Shanghai to talk to the person in charge of the Facebook game. If a settlement can be reached, as long as the other party's request is within our As long as we can bear it, we agree!" Mr. Tao gritted his teeth.

Opposite him, sat the three founders of the company with the same sad faces.

"Well, Brother Tao's words are reasonable. If you can reconcile, let's reconcile. I don't think we can keep this battle zone. As long as we don't lose money or have less company, that's acceptable." Mr. Wang said.

"I'm afraid that the Facebook game will be wiped out! What if they don't want to reconcile and insist on getting the court to sentence us to go offline for two or three months..."

Canceling the battle function, losing some money, these are all acceptable, at worst, it will go back to the way it was before.

The people on the side of the winger are most afraid that the platform will be ordered to go offline for a period of rectification, let alone a long period, and they will not be able to stand it for a month or two.

How can Internet users be so loyal and wait for you for such a long time? If you are taken offline for rectification, then users will pat their asses and go to the Facebook game platform to play.After a month or two, you will find that there are still so many registered users, but the number of daily active users... is almost gone!

…………

It's not just the people on the side of the winger game who are timid before fighting, those chain Internet cafes who are also accused are more panicked than the people from the winger.

Because the chain Internet cafes reported this time are all in several big cities, they all operate in the same industry, and everyone basically knows each other.

After the list of defendants was announced, the owners of these Internet cafe chains got together for a meeting to discuss how to deal with it.

"This Facebook game is a bit outrageous. We use pirated games in Internet cafes. We have never seen anyone sue us before, so why should they sue us!" A boss said indignantly.

"He just sued, so what can we do. Come on, don't say such useless words, let's think of a way, if we really want to go to court, I think everyone will feel uncomfortable." Another boss said with a wry smile .

"Let them sue, I don't believe it, even if we lose the lawsuit, how much money can we lose!" Some people said unwillingly.

"Don't mind, losing money is a trivial matter, and it's really not much. But have you ever thought about it, during the lawsuit, they may apply for an injunction and close our Internet cafes." Finally, someone who understands points out the crux of the problem .

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, no one dared to speak harshly, because this was everyone's death spot.

"What should I do?"

"How about this, let's send a representative to get in touch with the Facebook gamers and find out what they have to say. I still don't believe it, they will definitely kill our Internet cafes, let's ask them what they plan to do first." A magician All the local Internet cafe owners said.

This suggestion was good, and everyone unanimously recommended that he go to investigate the situation first.

…………

Mr. Tao from Winger Games made an appointment in advance. To his surprise, Mr. Ai from Facebook planned to meet and chat with him.

It's a good sign to meet you!
He immediately drove by himself, from Hangzhou to Shanghai, and arrived at the well-known Xinzhuang Science and Technology Park.

This science and technology park is the base camp of the Facebook company. With the development and growth of Facebook, this park is also widely known in the circle.

Standing at the gate, looking at the dozens of office buildings lined up in the park, and the employees coming and going, Mr. Tao sighed in his heart, looking at the scale of others!

In contrast, the office area of ​​the headquarters of our own company can't keep up with others' one floor, so how can this be compared?
In the science and technology park, on the top of the No. [-] office building, a big sign was newly erected, with four flamboyant characters on it, "Facebook Game"!
Apparently, this building is the headquarters of Facebook Games.

He explained his purpose at the front desk, and soon a female employee came down, this is Ai Fei's assistant, and took Mr. Tao directly to Ai Fei's office.

This is the first time Mr. Tao has met Effie. He has long heard that the president of the Facebook game is a very young girl, only in her twenties.

But when we actually met, Mr. Tao was amazed. Such a young girl should have been studying in college, but now she is in charge of such a big platform as Facebook. In comparison, the so-called I'm really ashamed of the fourth young winger.

"Hi Mr. Tao, welcome to Facebook Game." Effie stood up and greeted with a smile.

Mr. Tao took a step forward and said with a smile on his face: "This is Mr. Ai. He has been admiring his name for a long time. He kept saying that he would pay a visit. Today, he finally got his wish. Haha..."

Although they were about to go to court to fight to the death, the two bosses were all happy when they met, and neither of them showed any displeasure.

After the two came to the sofa and sat down, Mr. Tao said sincerely: "This time, I came to apologize to Mr. Ai. Anyway, the battle function launched by the winger really violated your company's copyright , We didn’t realize this before, the lack of copyright awareness, this is our fault.”

Since he came to ask for peace, of course he had to show his attitude, so as soon as Mr. Tao came up, he put himself in the position of a "weak person". What is an apology? do it.

Effie smiled without saying a word, and continued to listen to him.

"The second point is that the domestic Internet circles say that they are big or small. Everyone is in the same industry. They should help each other and make progress together. There is no need to fight to the death. The chess and card game market is large enough. It is impossible for a family to have all So I think we should reconcile and not be distracted by these chores. Mr. Ai should have heard that the Tencent game platform will be launched soon, and this is our biggest opponent. What do you think? "President Tao said while observing Effie's expression.

If the winger game is willing to bow down, instead of competing for the field of online battles, and concentrate on doing the local chess and card games it is good at, then Effie can't tolerate it.

Indeed, as Mr. Tao said, no matter how powerful the chess and card game platform is, it is impossible to occupy all the market. After all, there are some players who like to play on some small platforms and have fixed playing methods.Therefore, in the future, the Facebook game platform may occupy [-]% to [-]% or even higher market share, but it is impossible to account for [-]%.After all, there are still one or two competitors. It may be winger, Lianzhong, or Tencent game platform.

"Does Mr. Tao have any constructive suggestions for coming this time?" Effie finally spoke, and she looked at Mr. Tao with a smile.

According to Yu Wenfei's instructions, the Facebook game side has already made two-handed preparations. If the opponents (including wingers and Internet cafe owners) fight, they will fight to the end, and the methods will be very tough!

If the opponent admits defeat and takes the initiative to seek peace, then the Facebook game will not deceive people too much. As long as one's "strategic goal" can be achieved, an out-of-court settlement is also possible.

In short, litigation is only a means, not an end!
