130 Let's talk, let's collapse
The tone of the man on the phone was very flat, but Wang Yufei could hear the domineering taste hidden in the flat tone, and even make up for the look of contempt in the man on the other end of the phone.
This condescending attitude made Wang Yufei instinctively feel uncomfortable.
So there's really no need to be too polite to people who feel good.
"Oh, then Mr. Lin, did you see the email I replied to when I received the lawyer's letter before?" Wang Yufei asked rhetorically.
"Mr. Wang, please don't be too confident! If you have time to pay attention to the application treasure, you will find that the software you developed has been removed from all the recommended positions. In fact, we have fully communicated with the Penguin Group, and we have reached an understanding between the two sides, and this is probably your last chance. Our request is also very simple, immediately remove the software, stop the infringement, and immediately apologize to our company on Weibo. β
As long as you can do that, Apple can drop the lawsuit and promise not to pay you the sky-high damages. But if you don't come to your senses, not only will the amount of the subject matter agreed with the penguin be confiscated, but you will also face sky-high claims. This price IMHO you may not be able to afford. β
"Oh!" Wang Yufei patiently listened to the other party's tirade, thought for a while, and said slowly: "Then Mr. Lin, can you please help me convey a word to those executives of your Apple company who are higher than you? Preferably those executives of Apple headquarters." β
"Huh, you say!"
Wang Yufei said carefully: "I just want to ask you to help me ask them, is Apple owed to be acquired?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the other end of the phone fell silent, and about ten seconds later, the phone was hung up very rudely.
This probably indicates that the last private settlement exchange before the lawsuit has collapsed!
At least that's what Wang Yufei thinks.
hung up the phone, Wang Yufei put the matter aside, but the phone rang again.
Looked at the number, not Apple.
"Hey, hello, Director Tan, what's the matter?" Wang Yufei answered the phone and asked.
"Hello, Mr. Wang. That's the case, I'm here to inform you on behalf of the group this time, because there have been some legal problems in the negotiation with Apple, and the app treasure has no choice but to temporarily withdraw all the recommendations of the second system. Of course, if you're ......"
When Tan Jinrong said this, he was directly interrupted by Wang Yufei: "I already know that I just had a phone call with a Mr. Lin who claimed to be the senior director of the legal department of Apple Huaxia, and then refused his request to accept mediation and publicly apologize. In addition, I can not be held accountable if the application treasure is removed from the recommendation, but if the product is removed from the shelves, it is a breach of contract. β
"According to the contract, the force majeure clause involves legal issues, and AppPal has the right to remove the goods from the shelves without triggering the compensation clause, but there is no clear agreement, whether this is your voluntary waiver of the exclusive right to operate the second system. That means I have the right to take back the exclusivity and publish it on other platforms, right?"
"Huh?" Tan Jinrong was stunned.
Yes, he actually made this call to ask Wang Yufei if he had the idea of temporarily removing the software from the shelves, and he could consider taking the software off the shelves for the time being.
After all, when a normal person faces a behemoth like Apple, it is easy to lose courage and even be depressed.
But what does that mean?
The junior high school student on the other side wants to be tough with Apple?
And when it is clear that the in-house counsel of the Penguin Group will not come out?
Are young people so vigorous now?
"No, no, no, Mr. Wang, you may have misunderstood. There is still a point of responsibility for the application treasure,Although it has come down from the recommended position,But the software will not be removed from the shelves for the time being,You can still find it in the search barγ β
"If I really want to take it off the shelves, I will communicate with you in advance, I mean I'm afraid that the pressure on your side will be too much, so we can actually make appropriate adjustments on our side. β
"Oh, that's fine. I don't have to worry about the contradiction with Apple, as long as you keep the software on the shelf! There should always be some customers. Wang Yufei comforted Tan Jinrong.
"Okay, okay, then trouble Mr. Wang......" Tan Jinrong said like a dream, what was the purpose of his call?
"Don't bother, if there's nothing else, then I'll hang up first. β
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay!"
"Goodbye then!"
After speaking, Wang Yufei simply hung up the phone and walked out of the door.
At this time, he didn't have time to understand Tan Jinrong's tangled mood on the other end of the phone.
Wang Yufei first came to the living room and found Guo Jianfeng.
"Dad, if you receive a letter from the Beijing No. 2 Intermediate Court at home these days, help me sign for it. β
"Huh?" Guo Jianfeng was stunned.
"It's okay, Dad, it's still Apple's thing, it's just a program, it's not a big problem. This kind of civil litigation will always be encountered several times in a person's life. Just now, Apple's in-house counsel called me to talk about it. Wang Yufei calmly explained.
"Oh, it's fine, and if I do, I'll bring it back to you." Guo Jianfeng nodded and said.
It is impossible to say that he is not worried at all, but Wang Yufei's calm attitude still makes Guo Jianfeng not feel that this will be too serious trouble.
As Wang Yufei said, civil litigation is at most compensation, and since there is Penguin Group standing behind Wang Yufei, compensation is indeed not a big deal.
"By the way, Dad, don't tell Mom about this for the time being. The final exam is coming soon, and the third year of high school is very busy, which is already very hard. Wang Yufei added.
"Okay, even if it's a little secret between us. Guo Jianfeng nodded, looking at the sensible child in front of him with relief.
Of course, at this moment, he would never have imagined that this sensible child would choose to run into Apple directly.
"Thank you, Dad, I'll go and see how Xiaoyi is doing with her homework today. β
After speaking, Wang Yufei turned around and walked into Guo Xiaoyi's room.
"Xiaoyi,Wait for the review,Help me send a Weibo,That is,Although our second system has been temporarily removed from the application treasure recommendation,But it has not been taken off the shelves,You can still continue to download it through the search in the application treasureγ Also, by the way, announce the charging method, a one-week free trial, continue to use 10 yuan per month after the free period, and choose a continuous monthly subscription of 20% off. It is specifically noted that paid users will enjoy the free update service forever. β
"How much time can it take to just such a Weibo? I'll post it now, you wait!" Guo Xiaoyi excitedly took out her mobile phone, pressed her two thumbs on the mobile phone quickly, and after a few minutes, she edited all of Wang Yufei's requirements into text and posted them on Weibo.
"That's it!"
