my wife is a consul

Chapter 44 is extortion!

VIP private room No. 88 of Wendebao Club.

Zhu Guodong, the second son of Lingwei Automobile, obviously dismissed Zhao Xingwang's invitation and only sent a lawyer to represent him.

It is a hook-nosed Western lawyer named Rodman, a third-tier lawyer, that is, a senior defense attorney.

In Beiguan as a whole, because Liu Hanxuan has not been promoted yet, third-dan lawyers are the highest-ranking lawyers in Beiguan, and there are very few of them.

Rodman also had a haughty look on his face, showing no regard for Lu Ming at all.

Wen Liangyu and Zhao Xingwang were playing cards in the private chess and card room, but the door was open. They were obviously curious and wanted to hear how Lu Ming negotiated.

Lu Ming was a little funny, but there was no reason for them to leave.

Lu Ming's current identity is the major shareholder and legal affairs representative of Xingwang Industrial.

Lu Ming flipped through the materials on the table and asked: "Mr. Rodman, in October last year, Xingwang Industrial submitted the product description of the three-point seat belt to your company. You have always rejected this product and refused to use this type of seat belt in new cars. , right? And, by extension, you will no longer purchase ordinary seat belt products from our company."

"Yes, this is a business decision of Lingwei Automobile Industry. It has nothing to do with the law. I don't know. Why did you bring this up?" Rodman drank his coffee slowly, he didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, and didn't bother to look at Lu Ming.

Lu Ming stared at him. Finally, Rodman raised his head slowly, "Please don't waste any more of our time."

"Mr. Rodman, take a look at these..." Lu Ming moved a few files on the table over, "These are all serious accidents that occurred in Lingwei's various types of vehicles after October last year. We only spent three Within a few days, five car owners or their relatives who were seriously damaged have been found. In these five cases, two car owners died and three car owners were seriously injured and disabled."

"So?" Rodman didn't raise his hand, and there was a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth.

"This is the safety test report of the three-point seat belt. According to this professional report, the three-point seat belt is 80.00% safer than the two-point seat belt currently used by your company!"

Rodman just sneered.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "You'd better take a look, lest you make a big mistake, for this safety test report, we used [-] newly manufactured Lingwei cars, the five best-selling models of your company, each There are four vehicles, half of which use original seat belts, and half of which use three-point seat belts. After simulating the results of various car accidents, the Donghai Auto Industry Safety Association issued a report."

Rodman was startled, reached out to pick it up, glanced at it a few times, then frowned: "So what's the matter?"

"Mr. Rodman, you are really slow. That is to say, if your company used the three-point safety belt produced by Xingwang Industrial, some serious injuries could be avoided!" Lu Ming patted lightly. Take a picture of the five car accident files on the table.

"This is just the tip of the iceberg. I think if I search patiently, I will definitely find more car owners who have been unnecessarily damaged because of your sloppyness. There may be dozens or hundreds. You can think about it." , the dire situation your company will face when I file a class action lawsuit on their behalf."

"Will it go bankrupt?" Lu Ming shook his head slightly, and slowly picked up the tea on the table.

Rodman stared at the appraisal report with a livid face.

"Your report was issued yesterday!" His eyes suddenly lit up.

"However, when Xingwang Industrial explained the product to you at that time, it mentioned that the three-point seat belt can improve the safety by more than 30.00%. In court, who will the jury be more sympathetic to? Big companies? Or those poor people who have lost their loved ones or are disabled? people?"

"Also, as long as this case is filed as a class action, the reputation of Lingwei Auto Industry..." Lu Ming looked at Rodman, "If you can't clearly understand the seriousness of this problem, I think you should call Zhu Guozhu immediately , otherwise, this responsibility can make you completely disappear in the legal world!"

Rodman's face paled slightly, and finally, he reached out to pick up the five car accident files and looked slowly.

At this time, Zhao Xingwang had already hurried out of the chess and card room. When he got close, he quickly picked up the appraisal report and looked at it with a strange expression. He didn't know whether it was anger, surprise, or other feelings in his heart.

Finally, he put down the appraisal report and smiled wryly at Lu Ming, "It's really a big deal."

Let's say buying 20 brand new cars for safety testing is the stuff of madmen.

I definitely don't have the guts, plus I invited those gentlemen from the Association to participate in this test. Adding it all up, I'm afraid it will cost one hundred and eighty thousand?

Although, it felt faintly that a golden bump was poached by Lu Ming, but it seemed that he was not wronged.

"Are you so confident?" Zhao Xingwang asked with a wry smile.

Lu Ming nodded: "Huaxia Technology is also working on this, but I didn't expect that the patent was registered first by Mr. Zhao and you."

Zhao Xingwang nodded, so what else is there to say?

But in my heart, there is still a faint bitterness.

On the side, Wen Liangyu patted him lightly on the shoulder, "Old Zhao, don't think about what you lose, think about what you get. Isn't this the principle of our business?"

Zhao Xingwang sighed softly and nodded silently.

Wen Liangyu looked at Lu Ming with even more splendor, as if she had discovered some new continent.

Afterwards, he persuaded and brought Zhao Xingwang back to the chess and card room.

"Lawyer Lu, tell me, what solution do you have?" Rodman looked at Lu Ming with a serious expression, and finally, he regarded Lu Ming as his real opponent.

"Actually, you don't represent Lingwei Auto Industry, but the second son Zhu Guodong personally, right? Well, I have a chance to cooperate, which is also of great benefit to Zhu Ergong's development in Lingwei Auto Industry."

"If you really think about the interests of the second son Zhu, then suggest him to propose to his father that all Lingwei cars will use three-point seat belts in the future. This can be the biggest selling point of Lingwei cars. In addition, our appraisal report, Lingwei The auto industry is bound to gain a lot of limelight and lead the trend of the auto industry, and the second son Zhu will definitely be reused by his father, instead of just nesting in the purchasing department."

Rodman's eyes lit up after hearing this, and suddenly, he looked at Lu Ming with some anxiety: "So, what price are you going to sell for this three-point seat belt?"

Lu Ming smiled: "Well, first of all, your company must resume the purchase contract with Xingwang Industrial, but the three-point seat belt is not monopolized by Xingwang Industrial. This patent now belongs to Huaxia Technology, and they will adopt the method of licensing it to you, so , you then license it to downstream suppliers, but you need to pay a patent royalty of one yuan for every car you produce with a three-point seat belt.”

Rodman was stunned. This condition was unexpectedly good. He was worried that Xingwang Industry would monopolize the three-point seat belt in the future and start the price from the ground, but he didn't know what the sky-high price would be.

But who knows how the model sales of this new seat belt will be?Can I get my money back?
But nowadays, the cost of a car is equal to 1 yuan more, which is insignificant at all, and the addition of a new boo head is a good buying point.

When Zhu Guozhu mentioned this idea to his father, his father would definitely appreciate it.

"If that's the case, I'll have a good chat with Mr. Zhu Guozhu." Rodman nodded calmly. Although, the more he thought about it, the more it was an excellent opportunity for himself and Mr. Zhu in Lingwei Auto Industry, but still Do your best to suppress your excitement.

Lu Ming smiled.

……

In the chess and card room, Wen Liangyu smiled and said: "This young man is incredible, his ambition can even be said to be terrifying."

Zhao Xingwang smiled wryly and remained silent.

"Old Zhao, don't just think about your things. Think about it again. If you hadn't met this young man, would you be able to develop your broken seat belt? I'm afraid your factory will go bankrupt and the patent right It’s not sure who’s going to run away.”

"Now, your factory is alive, and you have a strong business partner again. If you want me, it's too late to be happy!"

Wen Liangyu smiled, her face full of admiration.

Zhao Xingwang looked at him strangely. This figure like the godfather of Beiguan had always been taciturn and buried many things in his heart. This was the first time he showed such appreciation for others.

"If this young man really does it, the patent fee will cost several million a year? In the future, there will be more." Wen Liangyu shook her head with a smile.

Zhao Xingwang was stunned: "How do you say that?"

Wen Liangyu said with a smile: "The new concept he gave Ling Wei is not to promote his seat belts? Every year, millions of cars of various types are produced nationwide. If in the end, all use his seat belts, the high-end car patent fee authorization 2 Yuan, mid-range cars like Lingwei are authorized for 1 yuan, and low-end cars are authorized for 5 cents? I roughly guess that he wants to do this. Calculated like this, isn’t it a few million a year?”

Zhao Xingwang was stunned, looking at Wen Liangyu at himself with a half-smile, and didn't know what it was like in his heart.

There was a light knock on the door of the chess and card room. It sounded like Lu Ming was sending Rodman out, and then he opened the door to come in.

"Brother Qianxing, congratulations!" Wen Liangyu smiled.

Lu Ming smiled and looked at Zhao Xingwang, "Mr Zhao, I need money urgently, a lot of money, so don't blame me for being offended, one day I will really grow bigger and stronger, and I will definitely compensate you twice."

His heart was still sour, but at this moment, Zhao Xingwang couldn't help feeling that this young man could be a man.

Moreover, he doesn't have anything behind his back at all, if not, if he operates behind the scenes, I'm afraid it will take a long time to wake up.

"Forget it, speaking of it, you are my nobleman and you don't owe me anything at all!" Zhao Xingwang waved his hands with a wry smile.

Wen Liangyu said with a smile: "Although brother Qianxing is young, he has a lot of handwriting. The cost of the test report is about [-]. Is my brother so confident?"

Lu Ming smiled and said nothing.

Now, the family property is almost empty, and there are only a few thousand yuan left in the passbook.

He even asked Zhou Xiaobao from the immigration company to lend him some money.

"Brother Qianxing has a kind heart!" Wen Liangyu sighed again.

This is what Lu Ming and Rodman said just now. For these five car accident cases, Lingwei Automobile should come forward to compensate them appropriately, and finally deduct the patent fee from Huaxia Technology.

Lu Ming felt that he owed the five car accident owners or their families by taking advantage of them, and that he should make proper compensation.

Hearing Wen Liangyu's praise, Lu Ming gently waved his hand.

……

"Master, you're back!" Lu Ming had just stepped onto the balcony from the side ladder when the door was quickly opened.

The incomparably delicate voice was full of surprises.

Lu Ming looked at the glamorous Zhenshi in front of him, and he was also extremely happy. He was really worried that it would be that Bizhu in the future, and he would never see her again.

Just came back from a drink with Wen Liangyu and Zhao Xingwang, feeling a little tipsy.

"Hanzhu, where have you been these few days?" Lu Ming felt dizzy, walked into the room slowly, sat on the sofa with Zhen's support, and asked with a sigh.

"I, I feel groggy. Have you been sleeping for a few days?" Zhen took a wet towel and carefully applied it to Lu Ming's forehead.

A trace of coldness entered his mind, it was very comfortable, Lu Ming turned his head to look.

In front of you are Zhen's beautiful eyes full of concern, big watery eyes that seem to be able to speak, and the long, shiny black eyelashes blinking and blinking, as if scratching your heart.

Like a ghost, Lu Ming gently stretched out his hand to hold her soft catkin.

Zhen's body trembled violently. Although she once helped Lu Ming wipe his face and hands, it was quite another matter for Lu Ming to take her hand.

"You can't disappear, you know?" Lu Ming sighed softly, looking at her with pity.

I have a vague feeling that Bizhu's spiritual power is so strong, I don't know if Hanzhu in front of me, this delicate and pitiful girl, will disappear completely in the end?
If there is that day, she, she is too pitiful, she doesn't know this short life, she is just a pawn, a pawn to wake up another person and replace her.

"As long as you don't dislike me, I, I will always be by your side..." Mrs. Zhen lowered her head, her snow-white face flew up into two red clouds.

Lu Ming looked at her with a sore nose. What he was most afraid of was that if she disappeared completely one day, he would never have the chance to say goodbye to her.

Gently stretching out his hand, caressing her pretty face pitifully, it felt unspeakably slippery, Zhen Shi was extremely shy, her pretty face was even hotter, her hands were a little crisp when touched lightly, and she was reluctant to use half of her strength.

Zhen Shi first looked at Lu Ming in astonishment, then her pretty face flushed, her stiff body suddenly softened, and with a groan, she fell slowly.

"You silly girl..." Lu Ming was helpless, as if he fainted?I don't know if I was scared by myself?Still happy?Or was it a huge emotional shock?

Zhenshi slowly opened her eyes again.

"You..." Suddenly, Lu Ming felt something was wrong, and a cold light flashed in Zhen's beautiful eyes.

"Ah..." The wrist that was gently loving Zhen's pretty face suddenly hurt sharply, and then fell down under the sofa without knowing what to do.

Zhen stood up suddenly, and then, as if she understood what happened, she bit her red lips and looked at Lu Ming: "Master, please respect yourself."

Needless to say, he also knew that Bizhu was here, so Lu Ming slowly got up and waved to Bizhu who was about to come to help him, "Forget it, tell her to come back!"

"Master, I'm sorry, this servant girl just now, I really don't know what's going on!" Bizhu clasped her fists and bowed, and said in a low voice, "Does the master hate me? Last time I woke up, I endured staying up for days and nights. Talent, ability to see more of this world... Now, just woke up, does the master want the maidservant to go to sleep again?" The voice was faintly sad.

Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, looked at her, and finally sighed softly, "Forget it! Then you can figure it out, but Hanzhu, ignorant, is even more pitiful..." Turning around and walking to his bedroom.

When he arrived at the door, Lu Ming suddenly remembered something, turned his head and asked, "Have you heard of Fernard College?"

"Of course the servant knows the school the master goes to." Bi Zhu asked in surprise, "Why did the master ask such a question?"

Shaking his head, "It's nothing." Lu Ming sighed in his heart, his family's top secret, Bizhu, the so-called maid, or bodyguard, of course, would not know the inside story.

Pushing the door open and entering the room, lying down and thinking wildly, it took a long time before I gradually fell asleep.

Early the next morning, when he saw Zhen's big twinkling eyes appearing in front of him, Lu Ming felt relieved.
