Liu Mingyu turned his head to look at the middle-aged man beside him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The middle-aged man understood, nodded, took out two contracts, and said, "Hello Mr. Chen, this is a termination agreement." ”
Chen Xiaojiao smiled, took the document and glanced at it, and said with a smile: "I said three, the liquidated damages are less." ”
Wei Hai and the others were stunned, "Isn't it 20 million?"
"Mr. Chen, are you trying to mess around?" Liu Mingyu said with a narrowing of his eyes.
"No, no, no," Chen Xiaojiao waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "Just kidding, I don't do this kind of thing." Don't you have a lawyer? I think you should study the copyright transfer contract carefully. There is no need to guess, he knows that this man is a lawyer and has not run away, because he can feel the same temperament as Hao Jianhua from the other party.
Liu Mingyu's eyelids jumped and looked at Wei Hai.
Wei Hai was also a little panicked, could it be that there was something wrong with the contract he signed at the beginning?
No, he had read the contract carefully!
Wei Lan looked at Chen Xiaojiao inexplicably, his expression a little complicated.
"What about the contract?"
Liu Mingyu looked at Wei Hai and said indifferently.
Wei Hai hurriedly took out a contract from the document bag, then turned to the page of liquidated damages compensation, pointed to that item, and said: "It's indeed 20 million, that's right." ”
Chen Xiaojiao smiled, "Let this barrister take a look." ”
The lawyer frowned, he had read this contract before, and it was indeed no problem! Could it be that there were any traps in it that he hadn't discovered?
Thinking about it, he reached out and took the contract, flipped through it carefully, and shook his head at Liu Mingyu.
Liu Mingyu calmed down, shook his head, and said sarcastically to Chen Xiaojiao: "It seems that Mr. Chen is a little indecisive in doing things! It's so disappointing, I thought Mr. Chen was such a great person." ”
The smile on Chen Xiaojiao's face remained the same, and even became a little thicker, ignoring the other party's sarcasm, and continued to smile: "It seems that this lawyer Mr. Liu hired is not very professional!" Speaking of this, he shook his head in disappointment.
The middle-aged man's face sank, he is a well-known lawyer in Nantong City, okay, he has won countless lawsuits, and he was buried by this young man, saying that he was not professional?
"Lawyer Zhao, you are taking a closer look, so that Mr. Chen will die. ”
Looking at Chen Xiaojiao, who was full of confidence, Liu Mingyu frowned and said to the middle-aged man.
Hearing this, Lawyer Zhao nodded a little dissatisfied. But when the client spoke, he had to look at it carefully again, not letting go of every clause, every item, every word.
Wei Hai sat on the sofa, holding a cup of tea, in a worried mood.
He was caught in the middle and was the most uncomfortable person. looked at his sister and wanted her to help persuade Chen Xiaojiao, stop tossing so much, and quickly sign the termination agreement. But looking at his sister's cold face, he really couldn't open his mouth.
"Ahh
At this time, Lawyer Zhao suddenly shouted, startling Wei Hai, who was thinking wildly, and hurriedly looked at Lawyer Zhao.
I saw that lawyer Zhao was looking at the contract like a ghost, with an unbelievable face.
Liu Mingyu's heart sank and asked, "What's wrong?"
The lawyer handed over the contract in frustration, pointed to a few places, and said in a bitter tone: "Look." ”
Liu Mingyu took a look, but he didn't understand it at first, and then, he only felt that his head was like someone knocking on a stick.
I saw that where lawyer Zhao pointed out, there was an extra line of words: if Party B breaches the contract, without the consent of Party A, Party A must compensate for liquidated damages for the actual loss.
The place where the original 20 million liquidated damages was marked has also become: if Party A agrees to terminate the contract, Party B will compensate Party A for 20 million liquidated damages.
At this point, things are clear.
In a word, to put it bluntly, he Chen Xiaojiao has the final say on how much liquidated damages he actually has to compensate.
Knowing this, Wei Hai slumped into his chair.
As for Liu Mingyu, his face was pale, and he looked at Chen Xiaojiao for the first time.
"Good, good means. ”
Liu Mingyu gritted his teeth a little.
Lawyer Zhao's face was bitter, he looked at Chen Xiaojiao and asked, "Can you ask, who made this contract?" He didn't believe that this was a contract made by Chen Xiaojiao, because these two clauses were simple, but they were very secretive and sophisticated, and people who were not familiar with the law and often dealt with the law couldn't do it at all.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have looked at it twice before he found out when he was reminded.
I knew that he was also a well-known lawyer!
Chen Xiaojiao smiled and didn't hide it, "It's our lawyer Hao Jianhua from Yangcheng." ”
"It's him!"
Lawyer Zhao sighed when he heard this, shook his head at Liu Mingyu, sat down in the chair and didn't speak.
Chen Xiaojiao glanced at him, and then glanced at Liu Mingyu and Wei Hai, who had ugly faces, and then took out a document that had been prepared early from his bag, and said: "This is a report on the future comprehensive brand value and derivative value that I asked professionals to make for the IP of "Legend of Wentian", you can take a look, if you think it is acceptable, we will sign a termination agreement." ”
Liu Mingyu's face was pale, he didn't need to look at it to know that this liquidated damages were sky-high.
Even if he just came back from the United States not long ago, he understands the value of "The Legend of Wentian" and knows the popularity of IP today.
This is still the case that "The Legend of Wentian" has not been completed, if you wait until the book is finished, its comprehensive value, as well as the peripheral derivative value, will definitely be above 1 billion.
"The Legend of Wentian" is so popular that it often occupies the top three of the Baidu index, the top five of the hot search list, and the frequent visitor of the Weibo topic list, and the number of participants in the discussion of Tieba has reached 5 million, and tens of millions of discussion posts. From these data, we can see the value contained in this IP.
Wei Hai sat down in his chair and took the report unwillingly. At first glance, Venus appeared in his eyes.
1 billion, a whole billion.
The overall value of his "Legend of Wentian" reached 1 billion, but he was not happy at all. Because if he wants to terminate the contract, he will first have to pay a full 1 billion liquidated damages, which-
He looked at Liu Mingyu blankly, realizing that he was afraid that he was going to be abandoned.
"This is a report on the IP value of the statistics for "Legend of Wentian" according to the minimum. You must know that the comprehensive value of IP in the market, which is similar to the popularity of "Legend of Wentian", has reached 2 billion yuan. So-" Chen Xiaojiao smiled and mocked: "So, do you think I will give up 2 billion for a mere 20 million? Of course, if you are determined to solve the problem, you only need to pay 1 billion, and I will suffer some losses." ”
Liu Mingyu almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of old blood, his face was blue and red.
He admitted that he carried it today. If he really dared to sign this termination agreement with a liquidated damages of 1 billion, he would definitely become a joke. Even if he earns it in the end, it will become a laughing stock that will follow him for the rest of his life. Is this possible unless you earn more than 10 times the liquidated damages?
It's just whimsical.
Thinking about it, he stood up and said, "Okay, good, you won this time." ”
With that, he got up and was about to leave, but just as he turned around, he suddenly said a word. )
