Reborn since 1993

Chapter 41 The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the ant's nest
  "Up to two million US dollars, Logitech will bear up to two million US dollars in legal fees for you. All of this money must be used for litigation costs against Microsoft!"

Daniel was in the next room with Pacosta and Marini. After discussing for a while, he returned and said to Li Dongling.

Logitech can't fight with Microsoft for Donglin Hi-Tech. Two million dollars is not a big sum of money for Logitech. It won't break your muscles and bones for a small amount of money. It can get the patent for the wheel mouse and it can make you feel sick. Microsoft will not lose money on this account!
  Li Dongling stretched out his hand and shook it with Daniel. The two parties had reached an agreement. Two million US dollars, converted into RMB, was more than 16 million, which was equivalent to more than half of the cash flow in Dongling Hi-Tech's account.

Yao Luoying looked at this scene with a strange light in her eyes. She saw that Li Dongling, in just a few words, brought Logitech, Dongling Hi-Tech's rival, into the same camp, and asked the other party to pay millions of dollars to litigate on Dongling Hi-Tech's behalf. , this kind of reality-distorting scene, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never believe that it would happen.

Not accepting Daniel's offer to stay, after a night's rest, Li Dongling left Lausanne early the next morning and headed to the airport to fly to America.

"We are going to find America's top vulture lawyer team to fight this lawsuit!"

After getting on the plane, Li Dongling discussed with Yao Luoying that Li Dongling was not going to find those big-name lawyers, but was going to find the notorious vulture lawyer group.

"Vulture lawyer?!" Yao Luoying, who was looking for a famous lawyer in America, couldn't help but be surprised when she heard Li Dongling's words.

Vulture lawyers, when you hear this name, you will know the virtues of these lawyers. If the geese pluck their hair, they will pick three points for everything.

Some coffee shop got burned when buying coffee, the coffee shop lost tens of millions of dollars in lawsuits, the tire burst while driving and hit a tree, the car company paid hundreds of millions of dollars, etc. After seeing these news, if you read more carefully If you do, you will find that there is a mysterious group behind these lawsuits, and that is the vulture lawyers!
  Those cases resulted in tens or hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation, which seemed like a lot, but in fact, most of the compensation was taken away by the vulture lawyer group. Those who sued did not get much.

"We don't have much time. This matter must be resolved quickly. We need a big-name lawyer. Of course, the chances of winning are high, but it takes too much time. Vulture lawyers are the most suitable to take over this lawsuit now!"

In order to win and make money, vulture lawyers will do whatever it takes. There is no bottom line or bottom line at all. They will use all kinds of underhanded tricks and are particularly good at concocting public opinion.

When Li Dongling's plane flew to New York, Logitech officially announced that it would file a lawsuit against Microsoft with the European Trade Commission, threatening that Microsoft had infringed on eight mouse patents represented by Logitech. As soon as the news came out, the entire European media was on guard!

At the same time, New Technology Express also received a lawyer’s letter from Donglin Hi-Tech. When Lin Shiman saw the lawyer’s letter, she didn’t believe her eyes, “They still dare to sue the newspaper?!”

Although the editor-in-chief of the newspaper was not worried, he still expressed a bit of confusion, "It is true that they have been sued. The other party's lawyers have already arrived in the city. They are suing our newspaper this time for compensation of three million yuan in losses, and they also want to pay The newspaper and you published an apology statement in the Yangcheng Daily and other media for 30 consecutive days to restore the reputation of Tanglin High-tech!"

"They must be crazy. Do you really think that Microsoft won't do anything to Tanglin Hi-Tech? When Microsoft takes action, I wonder if they will be so arrogant when they go to jail!"

Lin Shiman said angrily, she felt that the facts were already conclusive to this point, but the other party was so stubborn and dared to sue their newspaper. It was simply lawless.

"It's strange," the editor-in-chief of New Technology Express said with some confusion, "It's been a few days and we have reported so much news. Why is there still no news from Microsoft? They should already know about this!"

Instead, Lin Charmaine persuaded the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, "This is a big company. It has its own rules and regulations. I heard that it also has its own legal department. It is separated by an ocean. It will definitely take time to deal with it. Unlike some companies, it will Send a lawyer’s letter!”

Lin Shiman threw the lawyer's letter aside and didn't take it seriously at all. She felt that Dongling Hi-Tech was just bluffing. If she had the ability to go to the court to see the truth, Lin Shiman felt full of fighting spirit and was ready to write a few more words. This heroic article bombarded Dongling Hi-tech, allowing the world to see the true face of Tangling Hi-tech, and completely became a shame in the history of Chinese science and technology.

The cruise ships in the bay are honking their horns, the streets are busy with traffic, and high-rise buildings are still being built. New York in 1994 represents the current state of Americans, who are in the most confident era in history.

The enemy's furry bear collapsed three years ago, leaving only one empire in the world. America is now at its most dazzling moment. For the Americans, it is the golden age.

When I stepped into New York for the first time, I looked at the modern city with many high-rise buildings. Whether it was Yao Luoying, Yang Zhigao, or the woman who came out with Yao Luoying, the bustling New York in front of me and countless modern products made me feel like all the people who came here for the first time in this era. , the scene in front of them shocked them all.

However, after seeing Li Dongling in Yanjing, Shanghai, Pengcheng, Yangcheng and other places in later generations, he didn't have much feeling for this kind of prosperity. Now is the time when the empire's national fortune and national strength are at its strongest. After waiting for these few years, , these places remain unchanged even for decades!

“Logitech is suing our mouse for infringing their patent?!”

Microsoft's legal department told Spencer the news from Europe. When Spencer heard the news, he was a little confused and didn't know what was going on. "Yes!"

A manager from Microsoft's legal department, Jon, came over. Microsoft files countless lawsuits every year. It is sued by others and also sues others. There are companies all over the world that pirate Microsoft systems and software. Every year, Microsoft doesn't know how to send them to Microsoft. How many people have gone to jail? In order to prevent the empire from being invaded, Microsoft spends a lot of money every year to form a powerful legal department. Even the president of the legal department directly joins the Microsoft board of directors.

“It is still unclear which patents Logitech has infringed upon by suing your hardware department.

But now the situation in Europe is not very good. Without the threat of woolly bears, old Europe has lost its respect for America. Since last year, many American companies have been sued and fined by the European Trade Commission!
  I need to know what kind of trouble your hardware department is having with Logitech? ! "Jon asked Spencer.

"That's a lot!"

Spencer sneered. Microsoft and Logitech have been at odds over the mouse. Logitech has been suppressing Microsoft in mouse technology, which really makes Spencer lose face.

"But these are all old problems. They can't cause any trouble. I know them better than you. At most, they are just talking about some old problems. Believe me!" Spencer didn't take it seriously. There have been many such prosecutions in the past. If anything happened, he thought it would just be the same as before, bickering in court and slandering each other in newspapers.

Seeing Spencer, he didn't take it seriously, and Jon didn't say much. Their legal department was very busy, and sometimes they had to fly around the world, so it was impossible to keep an eye on all the lawsuits.

"Could this matter be related to Tanglin Hi-Tech?"

After hearing the news, Bonas rushed over and said to Spencer that he was always a little uneasy, although the new generation mouse released by Microsoft was already a hit and several orders had been received.

"Relax Bonas, this is America, we are Microsoft, IBM, Sun Microsystems, Lotus and others can do anything to Microsoft!"

Spencer patted Bonas on the shoulder. Bonas was left in America by Spencer because of his merits. It was considered a step up in promotion. Being a supervisor at the headquarters would definitely have a much better future than overseas.

In a luxurious office building on Haston Street in New York, Li Dongling, Yao Luoying, and Yang Zhigao arrived at the door of Hardy Larson Law Firm.

"Do you have a reservation?!"

The female receptionist, who had blond hair and wore a women's suit that was obviously a few sizes too small, and made her figure look eye-catching, asked Li Dongling with a professional smile on her face.

Seeing Li Dongling shaking his head, the receptionist immediately said, "I'm really sorry. Lawyer Larson has to appear in court for several lawsuits today. I'm really sorry..."

"If Larson doesn't care about the two-million-dollar lawsuit in legal fees, we can find another law firm in this building."

"Please wait a moment, I'm going to report now!"

After hearing the number Li Dongling said, the receptionist no longer cared about his image. He twisted his hip-covering short skirt and rushed into Larson's office on high heels.

Tens of seconds later, a fat man, with his belly puffed out, ran towards Li Dongling at a speed that was not suitable for his body.

"Damn, you almost made me lose one of my most respected friends!"

Larson first scolded the front desk, then stretched out his hand to Li Dongling, and said with a sincere and righteous expression, "Don't worry, my friend, your coming here means that all troubles have left you. You can always trust me." Larson, Larson is willing to serve you anytime and anywhere!”
