Chapter 13: The Battle for the 300 Million Inheritance Lawsuit!
"The Tokyo District Court received a complaint in which the plaintiff, Taro Imai, demanded a huge amount of medical expenses and moral compensation from Mr. Tom Louie, a wealthy man from country m, who had disappeared as a victim! At the time of writing, the Yamaguchi Foundation and the Imai Foundation applied to the court at the same time to freeze the funds, companies, and all property in Mr. Tom's name! This move is very likely to break the balance maintained by the three major associations of the island nation for nearly half a century...... "A piece of midday news was urgently inserted on the big screen at the airport, and Jia Lei hurriedly looked up to take a closer look.
Because the audience that this news program wants to face is an international audience, the announcer speaks English! Jia Lei and the people in the investment advisory group can understand it.
"Oops! Why is it that even the Imai Foundation is involved? Now it's not just the Yamaguchi-gumi who want this money! When the plane takes off, we won't be able to leave if we don't leave. Jia Lei asked anxiously.
"We went to change our boarding pass right away and the plane was still 20 minutes away. As long as we get on the plane, we will be safe!" Pete comforted Jia Lei.
"Actually, according to the law, Taro Imai, as a victim, is far more legitimate in asking the court for damages than Sachiko Suzuki, and I guess the Imai Foundation did not want the rival Yamaguchi-gumi to get this huge amount of money. You must know that the Imai Society has already taken revenge, so there is no need to do it again!" said the old man Farr.
"These people are fighting back and forth, is it difficult that Tom has no parents?" Jia Lei asked unhappily.
"Even if Tom has parents, I'm afraid he won't be able to compete with the two major consortia in the island country, not to mention that they think the money is still in the island country! Farr said with a frown.
"I think you should go to the Hilton Hotel and ask if there is any surveillance? If there is surveillance, everything will not be a problem, but I don't know if the Hilton Hotel in the island country has surveillance now?" Jia Lei asked, and everyone knows about the surveillance in 20 years.
"Oh my God! How did I forget such an important thing! I'll immediately ask someone from the island branch to go to the Hilton Hotel to investigate. Farr said quickly.
"Actually, you don't have to be in such a hurry, according to common sense, Tom is just missing now and has not been confirmed dead! If you want to fight an inheritance lawsuit, you must first confirm that the person is dead. Pete suddenly burst out with a word, and everyone looked at him in surprise.
Because everyone was misled by the two big words death in the newspaper at the beginning, and no one got to this point at all!
****
"Why do we all think only that Tom is dead, maybe he's still alive!" Jia Lei asked hopefully, after all, he and Tom did not have a grudge.
"Boss: Actually, Tom's death is far better for you than it is to be alive, know that only the dead can keep secrets. Don't you want anyone to know that you have the $300 million? Farr replied calmly as he sat in his business-class seat.
Farr probably meant that everyone wanted Tom to die, probably because he would get benefits after he died, and everyone subconsciously hoped that Tom was dead. Pete analyzed.
This is embarrassing, Jia Lei also belongs to the kind of person that Pitt said!
However, Jia Lei will never admit that he is a person with a dark heart, so Jia Lei decided to do something good in order to show that he is a good person.
"Why don't we help Tom's parents fight for their inheritance, they are also the first heirs to Tom's estate. Tom and I met once, and he also helped me make so much money, how could I let his parents be bullied!" Jia Lei said.
"That's a good idea! Actually, I want to remind you to do it if you don't say it. Fall said.
"Hey, you and Tom don't know each other, why do you want to help his family?" asked Jia Lei curiously.
"Of course I don't want to help Tom, but I want to help you, you know that once you enter the judicial process, you can extend the time for the other party to receive the inheritance, and the other party can't have access to the inheritance, so naturally they don't know that the money has been transferred! Fall said that this is the usual method used by lawyers in country M.
"Is there still such a benefit to fighting a lawsuit? But have I heard that it is time-consuming and laborious to fight a lawsuit in country M?" asked Jia Lei.
"Boss, you forgot to say the most important point, the most expensive thing to fight a lawsuit should be money! Pete reminded Jia Lei.
"Well, you're right! I've heard on the news that the lawsuits in country M have been going on for several years, and many companies have been dragged down because they can't afford to pay their lawyers' fees! There are also companies that have gone bankrupt because of sky-high fines. Am I going to be dragged bankrupt by the lawsuit?" Jia Lei asked worriedly.
"You don't have to worry about that, the huge legal fees are generally charged on a pro-rata basis. Tom's parents should have paid for it, and besides, we weren't fighting the lawsuit for money at all! I could have done it just to get the time, and my attorney's fees were already included in the consultant's fees. Fall said.
"Then let's go to court! You go and help Tom's parents with the lawsuit. In this way, how long can the owner of this money be hidden?" asked Jia Lei.
"At least seven years!" Farr affirmed.
"At least seven years, why are you so sure?" Jia Lei asked.
"Under federal law, death is not recognized if the disappearance has been missing for less than seven years. Fall said.
"Seven years! If there were seven years, I guess I wouldn't have to be afraid of little devils anymore. Jia Lei weighed his future development and said.
With the huge golden finger of rebirth! I can't mix up my personal appearance for seven years, and I can find a piece of tofu and kill me!
"Boss, you don't have to be afraid, if it doesn't work in seven years, we can still continue the inheritance lawsuit. Fall said.
"What, didn't you just say an inheritance lawsuit?" Jia Lei asked in shock.
"No, we must first fight a lawsuit to confirm death, and we must first confirm death before we can fight an inheritance lawsuit and a lawsuit over inheritance rights. Fall said.
"There are so many lawsuits in your country M, no wonder the lawyers in country M are the most popular and wealthy professions!" Jia Lei said.
"Because rich people need lawyers, they need lawsuits, so Citibank will have a professional team of consultants and lawyers for each VIP guest. Farr said with a smile.

"We must fight this lawsuit to the end! We can't let the Yamaguchi-gumi get this money under any circumstances!" President Imai said to his lawyer.
"My lord is right! We, Imaisha and the Yamaguchi-gumi, have always been about the same strength, but we have suffered heavy losses in this financial crisis, while the Yamaguchi-gumi have suffered less damage than us because of our gains in the financial field. If the Yamaguchi-gumi get this money again, I'm afraid that the island country will not have the position of our Imai Society to speak in the future. President Zuo of Imai said.
"This time Taro has made a great contribution to our Imai Society, if it weren't for him inadvertently interfering with the plan of Yamaguchi Suzuki's father and daughter this time, our Imai Society would have suffered a big loss. The right vice president of Imai said.
"I don't know how the young master's injuries are?" asked Vice President Zuo.
"He can't die! He's been making trouble for me all my life, and this time I'm injured and I can finally stay at home for a few months. For his sake, I won't punish him for his meritorious service!" said President Imai with a little pride.
Imai didn't have to get the money, but he didn't have to let the Yamaguchi-gumi get the money.
The purpose of Imai Society's lawsuit is the same as Jia Lei, which is to delay time and prevent Sachiko Yamaguchi Suzuki from getting Tom's inheritance!
Fishing in troubled waters!
A sensational international lawsuit involving China, the United States and Japan over a seven-year estate lawsuit has begun!
Jia Lei also completely covered up the whereabouts of the $300 million fund because of Tom's disappearance!
At this time, only a few people in the world knew that there was a billionaire in Huaxia!
