"When did you get in touch with those top lawyers, they were willing to help you fight a lawsuit!"

After all, Xu Dong is from the political and legal system, and has a certain understanding of American law, of course, he knows the famous Simpson wife murder case, and he is concerned about how Zhang Chu got in touch with this kind of lawyer, no matter how he looks at it, he doesn't look like a person who can spend millions or tens of millions of dollars to hire a lawyer.

What's more, when these lawyers deal with a copyright case, it is completely like killing chickens with a knife, which is overkill!

Zhang Chu finally figured it out at this time, and finally had a result on the emotional side of the United States, and he replied: "Don't talk about this yet, has the result come out?

Xu Dong shook his head, "Only the case was reported at this time, and a hearing was held three days later for the verdict." ”

It's going to take three days!

Zhang Chudu was already numb to waiting, saying that good efficiency is paramount, why is it so slow.

Probably hearing Zhang Chu's complaints in his heart, the system, which had always been quiet, suddenly reminded him in his mind: "The system is based on the American judicial system step by step, and it takes a lot of time just for the three lawyers to meet." ”

Now that the system has spoken, Zhang Chu simply quickly checked his reputation value, and he found that this number is increasing rapidly, and the increase rate is far greater than after the broadcast of "One Stop to the End"!

Before the conference, it was more than 7 million, but now there are 11 million, and it has not stopped, and it is still rising wildly.

He hurriedly returned to reality, didn't care about Xu Dong next to him, picked up his mobile phone and checked it, and there was a news push directly in today's headlines.

"Chinese writers sue the Conan Doyle Heritage Foundation overseas, and the three ace lawyers lock in the win!"

The media in the United States took the lead in reporting, which happened to involve Chinese, so the domestic media also quickly followed up, immediately turned the report around, and replaced it with various powerful headlines.

Xu Dong felt that he had underestimated the young man in front of him, and if he didn't do it, it would be a shock!

In addition to Xu Dong at the scene, there were many people who were distracted and playing with their mobile phones, and they were all stunned by Zhang Chu's move.

It's clearly a nuclear bomb!

"It's amazing, we actually have a fierce man at this moment. ”

"Yesterday I read the news that the same works are not good.,It turned out that this thing turned out to sue the Heritage Foundation.,It's too good!"

"Have you seen the identities of the three lawyers in the news? Zhang Chu, a high school student, has invited so many good lawyers, and is there anyone behind him to support him?"

"I don't know what to say, let's be quiet and watch the excitement. ”

"It's him, I can't see it at all, and he directly started a transnational lawsuit. ”

"I hope he wins, Sherlock Holmes is such a big IP, readers will eat this set, maybe when I will write a fan. ”

Obviously, he had been looking forward to the result of the lawsuit, but Zhang Chu's head was already numb at this time.

Many writers who didn't know the details also understood what happened under the reminder of their friends, and they suddenly looked at Zhang Chu as if they were shocked.

Things can still be done that way!

……

The above-mentioned court of the Seventh Circuit in the United States was also taken aback by the joint complaint of these three lawyers, why would the three barristers standing at the top of the American bar fight for a small Sherlock Holmes copyright?

Is there something hidden here?

The court staff repeatedly investigated and collected evidence, and finally could only admit that this was really just a copyright case, but the identities of the defendants were a little strange.

One is a young writer from overseas who writes Sherlock Holmes fanfiction, and the other is the Conan Doyle Foundation, which controls the copyright of Sherlock Holmes.

But this time, the situation has taken a 180-degree turn, and the writer has sued the Foundation, wanting to save the classic image of Sherlock Holmes from the hands of the Foundation and become the public property of all mankind!

The well-informed Chicago Sun-Times was the first to expose the news, and the names of the three lawyers, coupled with such a strange copyright case, made even the editor-in-chief question the veracity of his own news.

"The copyright of Sherlock Holmes is coming, and overseas fans and the original author's family are fighting a lawsuit to protect their rights!"

"The Conan-Doyle Foundation has its biggest enemy, and three top lawyers have joined forces to defend their rights!"

"Where is the future of Sherlock Holmes?"

"The most bizarre copyright case: Can the various elements and characters in the Sherlock Holmes series be used as public property for people to use for free?"

"The value of the Sherlock Holmes series has been weakened, and there will be a large number of Sherlock Holmes-related film and television works on the big screen in the future!"

Starting with the Chicago Sun, Google News grabbed the news and promoted it to its users around the world.

Not to be outdone, Yahoo News also included relevant news, and also released it on its official Twitter and Facebook accounts!

The Los Angeles Times, HSD Post, Huffington Post, Fox News Channel, CNN, and The Wall Street Journal followed suit.

The media outlets across the United States, large and small, knew that a writer had sued the Foundation, and what normally seemed like a mayfly shaking the tree looked like a promising victory, with the support of the three lawyers.

And the New York Times acted quickly, they simply interviewed one of the lawyers, Beden, and launched a long article directly on their official website!

Who made Baden's law firm a partner of The New York Times, which is the envy of the rest of the media.

Baden is one of the nation's most well-known copyright attorneys, having helped many singers, film companies, writers, and photographers recover their copyrights and handle related copyright disputes.

Asked why he took on the case, the gray-haired lawyer Mr. Beyden told The New York Times: "I've been a big Sherlock Holmes fan since I was a kid, and I read every case over and over again, but I was puzzled why we couldn't write new stories." When I found an email from the Far East in my e-mail, I thought it was time for a change! Zhang Chu told us what happened to him, and it is hard to imagine that the Conan Doyle Foundation would do such a thing, and now that the copyright of the Sherlock Holmes series has expired, the copyright of fifty works published before 1923 has expired. ”

This means that publishers can republish Conan Doyle's work for free, but authors, fans, can't write new stories? I want to help Zhang, and all the rest of the fans and writers in the world, so that they don't have to worry about being punished by the law for worrying about using, interpreting, and adapting Sherlock Holmes elements!"

Lawyers are clever people, and Baden turned himself into a messenger of justice, and at the same time briefly explained why he would help Zhang Chu fight this lawsuit.
