Perfection of Rebirth

Chapter 162
The United States is the country with the most lawyers in the world - one lawyer for every 250 people.The United States is unique both in absolute numbers and in proportion to its population.In fact, there is no other country in the world where lawyers occupy such an important place in the development history of the country that lawyers have become a distinctive feature of the country.American lawyers are involved in almost every aspect of life.

American lawyers play a very important role in American society and have their unique status.In America, the lawyer is as indispensable to those who need him as the doctor is to the patient.The complex legal system of the United States, a large number of legal provisions and cumbersome litigation procedures are destined to prevent ordinary Americans from handling legal-related matters, especially litigation matters, without lawyers.In a society ruled by law, most of the disputes that arise are resolved through legal channels.Therefore, the importance of lawyers can be imagined.

The law firm that Tang Wenwen finally selected was Scott Law Firm, which is good at handling patent and other related disputes in the Boston area, and the meeting place with Facebook was chosen in the conference room of Scott Law Firm.

Zach and his assistant Linda personally came over for Facebook, while Tang Wenwen and Scott's lawyer Mike are here for Xiaonei.

"Hello, I'm Zucker Berg, the founder of Facebook. May I ask what your position is in Xiaonei. Can you make any decisions on Xiaonei's behalf?" Zach said.

"I, Tang Wenwen, are the deputy general manager of Xiaonei. Our general manager and I have been authorized to handle Facebook infringement cases," Tang Wenwen said.

"Mr. Tang, do you believe in coincidence?" Zach said.

"Do you think you are Mark Twain? Life is full of coincidences?" Tang Wenwen said.

In the year Mark Twain was born in 1835, Halley's Comet streaked across the sky. In 1909, Mark Twain wrote the following: "I came with Halley's Comet in 1835. It will come back next year, and I hope to go with it. If I can't go with Halley's Comet, I will spend my whole life with him." Greatest regret." On April 1910, 4, Halley's Comet appeared, and he died of a heart attack the next day.It can be said to be a very surprising coincidence in history, but the people of the Celestial Dynasty may know relatively little about this stalk.

"Mr. Tang, you have to believe that the world is full of coincidences. Do you know that on December 1660, 12, a ship sank in a channel in Dover, southern England, and the only survivor was Hugh William On December 5, 1767, another steamship sank in the same waters, killing 12 people, the only survivor was also named Hugh Williams. On August 5, 127, a picnic yacht in the United Kingdom There was only one survivor of the famous Thames capsize, also named Hugh Williams. On July 1820, 8, a British trawler was unfortunately blown up by a German mine. Only two people survived - a man And his nephew, both named Hugh Williams. Facebook and Xiaonei are similar, just one of the coincidences in this world," Zach said.

"Zach, can I entrust you to register Microsoft's trademark, IBM's trademark or Intel's trademark in the United States in the name of Xiaonei.com? You can see if the Patent Office believes that these trademarks registered by Xiaonei.com are just a coincidence. It is exactly the same as the trademarks of these well-known companies," Tang Wenwen said with a sneer.

"Mr. Tang, this is different. I, Zach, will never do things that plagiarize others. If you say plagiarism, you Chinese people like to plagiarize the most. There are so many websites in Silicon Valley, as long as the famous ones are plagiarized by you." ", Zach stood up and said loudly excitedly.

"Mr. Zucker, the truth is not held in the hands of loud voices. If you are still like this, I don't think we need to continue talking. See you in court. See if you believe the judge and jury It’s your coincidence,” Tang Wenwen said.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Tang, we were too impulsive," Linda said while pulling Zach.

Zach's face was blue and red, and he was probably struggling fiercely in his heart, considering whether to leave in a hurry, but in the end he sat down dejectedly.

"In fact, Mr. Jiang Hui, the founder of our company, still admires Mr. Zach. He can discover the potential of Xiaonei so quickly and make a website by plagiarizing it, and he can still achieve good results. At least it shows that Zach, you and Mr. Jiang They all have a unique understanding of the group of college students," Tang Wenwen said.

"I didn't plagiarize," Zach continued to defend.

"I'm sorry, that's just what you thought, how many people think that they hate you?" Tang Wenwen said.

Zach thought about the recent decline in Facebook sign-ups.In the United States, it is very difficult for plagiarized websites to survive. Leaving aside the legal risks, you are creating a website similar to Yahoo and Google. As long as people think you are plagiarized, they will not use you. The decline in the number of Facebook registrations indirectly shows that many users have already believed that Facebook is copying the idea of ​​Xiaonei.com, and began to give up using Facebook and use Xiaonei.com instead.

"I can provide all the materials at all stages of my website development to prove that I did not copy Xiaonei. Although this coincidence is hard to believe, this world is really wonderful. It just so happens that the Facebook page and location are the same as Xiaonei's , It can only show that the founder of Xiaonei and I want to go together," Zach said.

"Hehe, I really thought of one. Are you all very optimistic about this market? Otherwise, why don't you see you plagiarizing other websites?" Tang Wenwen said.

"I didn't plagiarize," Zach continued to defend.

"I suggest you consult your lawyer to see what professionals think about this case. If you realize your mistake in time, you may be able to save a little compensation. The longer you delay, the more you will end up paying. It’s all going to fall on Facebook,” Tang Wenwen said.

"Mr. Tang, can I talk to your founder directly? Can you contact him for me? I want to explain to him the process and idea of ​​creating Facebook, and I want to prove that I didn't copy his product. Please believe me Me," Zach said.

"Sorry, we're in the afternoon, and it's late at night in China. Do you think it's appropriate to disturb our Mr. Jiang's sleep for such a trivial matter?" Tang Wenwen said.

"It's no small thing," Zach said.

"Sorry, for Mr. Jiang, the founder of Xiaonei.com, it doesn't make any sense to hear you explain how you didn't copy his products. Mr. Jiang sent me to the United States to listen to your explanation. Plagiarism is plagiarism. It’s not that you can explain and cover up the past with a few words,” Tang Wenwen said.

"I didn't plagiarize, really," Zach said.

……

In the end, Zach left Scott's law firm in a daze.
