Chapter 42 Please start your show

Looking at Larson with a righteous face, as if he was the embodiment of justice, if Li Dongling hadn't checked the details of this accuser before coming here, he might have been deceived by him.

Larson is one of the most famous vulture lawyers in New York. When it comes to his litigation skills, he may not be the most powerful one, but he is definitely the one who resorts to the most off-the-books tricks and has the lowest bottom line. He even goes to great lengths to win the lawsuit. It is audacious to hire private detectives to track and collect dirt on prosecutors and judges, and to use the media to put pressure on them.

As long as he can win the lawsuit and get US dollars, Larson dares to do anything. For him, the bottom line is measured by dollars. As long as the risk is not so high that he will be killed, he really dares to take the job!
  Entering Larson's splendidly decorated office, which contains many famous paintings and antiques, plus the law firm receptionist and assistants who obviously have a less than formal relationship with Larson, Li Dongling can see how extravagant Larson's life is. , all this requires a beautiful knife to maintain.

"Would you like one? This is an authentic Cuban product!"

Like the front desk, Larson's assistant, who was quite outstanding in appearance and figure, made coffee for several people and left. Larson took out a box of cigars and asked Li Dongling.

Seeing that Li Dongling did not answer, Larson also put away the cigar, sat on his custom-made luxury boss chair, and asked Li Dongling tentatively, "Li, I still don't know where you are from..."

"Hua Guo!"

"Ooh!"

Larson exclaimed, his little eyes rolling, not knowing what he was thinking about, "It is a mysterious and special country. I have seen it on the Geographic Discovery Channel. The Great Wall and pandas... "

Li Dongling had no intention of talking nonsense with Larson and playing logic in circles with this kind of complaining stick. It was purely to hit the point of the gun. People only rely on their words to make a living. Li Dongling always believed that you should not use your own hobbies to challenge other people's jobs.

"Dongli Hi-Tech is going to sue Microsoft. Will you accept the lawsuit?"

"Microsoft?!"

Hearing Li Dongling's confession, Larson couldn't pretend anymore and cursed directly, "Shit, I know that two million is not that easy to earn!"

Seeing this scene, Yao Luoying's aura about the elite lawyers in her eyes was shattered. In the past, lawyers were always portrayed as elites in America and represented justice, but now these auras are gone.

"That's Microsoft. Even if you sue the New York Police Department or the City Hall, you have a higher chance of winning than suing Microsoft!"

Larson said a little depressed, and then looked at Li Dongling, "I need to remind you that this lawsuit may not be won, although I really want the two million US dollars..."

Saying this to Li Dongling does not mean that Larson has any professional ethics. If it were an ordinary person, he would have started to cheat a long time ago. But in this era, anyone who can spend two million dollars to litigate, no matter where Li Dongling comes from , Tolson has to weigh the consequences of hacking the money.

Lawyers are an industry that relies on fame and fame. He dared to hack the two million today, and it seems that he has made a profit. After that, Asian and even Asian clients, as well as some rich Americans, will definitely drag him into the gang. The list is up.

In addition, ordinary lawyers will not accept a lawsuit that seems certain to lose. The more famous a lawyer is, the more he cherishes his feathers. If he loses once, his net worth will drop a lot.

"This lawsuit must be won, but not necessarily, in court!"

Li Dongling looked at Larson and said, he didn't expect Larson to be able to argue with others in court and challenge the entire Microsoft Legal Department by himself. If he really had this ability, he could give it a try and see if he could choose On the federal bench.

Hearing this, Larson's little eyes suddenly shined, "It seems that Li, you already have a plan?!"

"I need Larson, you come up with what you are best at. We don't have much time left. We only have two months, or even only one month. We don't necessarily have to admit defeat. Just let it bow its head." Ling Gaoke can accept it..."

"Court settlement!"

Larson said excitedly. He already knew what Li Dongling was going to do. This was what he was best at. Creating scandals, inciting public opinion, putting pressure on Microsoft, and then settling out of court and getting compensation. This set of procedures , he can come up with a lot of tricks with his eyes closed.

"Not enough, not enough. If you only encourage the media, it will be difficult to make Microsoft bow!" Larson couldn't sit still, stood up, and walked back and forth.

"If we encourage IBM, Lotus, etc. to join in..."

"That's not enough," Larson interrupted Li Dongling directly. "You don't know much about America, a giant company like Microsoft. Do you know how many congressmen on Capitol Hill in Washington are supporting him? Do you know Microsoft?" How much public relations fees do you pay every year?!

It will never admit defeat without a life-threatening crisis! "

"Federal Ministry of Justice!"

Larson suddenly stopped and said with burning eyes. Hearing this, Yao Luoying was startled. She didn't expect that Larson would be so bold. Even the American Federal Ministry of Justice would dare to make plans.

After laughing a few times, Larson saw Li Dongling thoughtfully, and Yao Luoying looked worried, and said with a smile, "This beautiful lady, please don't worry, it is not really necessary to bring down the Federal Ministry of Justice, just It’s enough to make Microsoft feel the crisis!”

"But, Li..."

Larson became serious again, with a bit of gritted teeth, "We need to renegotiate this lawsuit. If we win the lawsuit, I want 80% of the compensation in this lawsuit. This is an industry rule!"

Larson just made some calculations. If he really wants to start a big battle, the two million US dollars given by Li Dongling will not be enough to spend. He may have to pour money into it. After a lawsuit, he will not make any money. , I have to give it a thumbs up. As a vulture lawyer, if word spreads, I’m afraid it won’t make people laugh.

"impossible!"

Li Dongling came back to his senses. He felt that what Larson said just now is really possible. Microsoft is not afraid of competitors. So, is it afraid of the antitrust investigation initiated by the Federal Ministry of Justice? !

Li Dongling did not hesitate to say, "This is impossible. You don't know how much Dongling Hi-Tech has lost due to this lawsuit. If it cannot get the compensation, Dongling Hi-Tech may go bankrupt. You have taken so much compensation. Tanglin Hi-Tech might as well not fight this lawsuit!"

"70%, no less. Do you know how many contacts I have to use in this lawsuit? Reporters, TV stations, media, prosecutors, and the Ministry of Justice all need public relations. These cannot be bought with dollars. Things." Tolson also counted on his fingers.

After arguing for a few more minutes, Li Dongling and Larson stopped arguing after they won the lawsuit and split the compensation equally.

"I will formulate an agency contract now!"

Larson said to Li Dongling, and he was ready to fight. If he could win this lawsuit, he would not only get a lot of dollars, but also become one of the top lawyers in America!
  "This matter still requires your cooperation, Li. After I file a lawsuit with the New York Court, I will arrange for you to accept an interview with a New York TV station. This interview is crucial and may even affect the success or failure of the entire matter!"

After signing the entrustment agreement, Larson immediately discussed with Li Dongling. No matter how Larson operated, he still needed the cooperation of the "sufferer".

Sometimes the victim can gain a lot of sympathy and support by showing off his misfortune on TV, which can create public pressure and put the federal police, federal prosecutors, federal courts, federal congressmen, etc. under tremendous pressure. Those powerful forces in America Characters, for the sake of votes, often choose to compromise when facing public opinion.

"I know!"

Li Dongling said that his current status is different from those companies in America that were suppressed by Microsoft. If he wants to gain public support, he needs to perform better.

"Today, I officially represent Donglin Hi-Tech to initiate a lawsuit against Microsoft. This is a company from Asia. Many people may not understand why I should accept to represent this lawsuit, but you have known this company and understood it. Founder of Microsoft, you will understand the meaning of all this. Microsoft is killing dreams. It is becoming that evil dragon. Warriors need to stand up and stop its atrocities..."

Standing in front of the Federal Court in Manhattan, New York, Larson gave an impassioned speech in front of a sparse group of reporters. These reporters and media were all invited by him with money.

After this year, the newspapers where these reporters work will also report on it. As for the extent of the effect, I don’t know. Larson doesn’t expect any immediate effect. He just needs to spread the matter first and create a splash. .

"Danglin Hi-Tech really sued us?!"

After hearing the news, Spencer and Bonas knew that Li Dongling had really come all the way across the Pacific to sue Microsoft. They were both stunned.

"Seriously, I really want to meet the founder of Tanglin Hi-tech," Spencer said with a bit of laughter and laughter, as if he had heard something unreasonable, "If he comes to Seattle to negotiate with us , I might compensate his company with a sum of US dollars, enough for him to be a rich man in that backward and barbaric country for the rest of his life, but now..."

Spencer was a little annoyed, "Then let's file a lawsuit and ask someone from the legal department to come over. I want to show him the true strength of Microsoft!"

Li Dongling was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with his hair slicked back and rarely wearing hair wax. Backstage at the New York TV station, Yao Luoying finally tied Li Dongling's tie.

Seeing the handsome and elegant Li Dongling in front of her, Yao Luoying's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up. Now Li Dongling is said to be one of America's top elites, or is going to Hollywood to audition for a film crew, and no one would suspect that there is something wrong.

"Li, are you ready? It's your turn to take the stage soon..."

When Larson returned to the backstage and saw Li Dongling dressed in this outfit, he couldn't help but feel the jealousy between men.

"You only have half an hour!" Larson reminded anxious Li Dongling.

　There will be more updates today...
