It didn't take him three days for Link to settle the alleged infringement — or so he thought.

Snapton was notified and immediately went through customs, and three containers of wine were finally loaded onto a cargo plane bound for the UK.

Link solves the trouble of being sued himself, and immediately takes the initiative to find someone else's trouble. Hull Donald has to pay for his fecal-squirting mouth.

Matthew and his three lawyers have collected a lot of evidence in Link's favor. In less than two days, Matthew made some slurious remarks about Blue Lagoon and Link on Donald's social networking sites. I'm afraid that it was a reporter who saw those remarks that made a point of interviewing him, a man who has almost nothing to do with the wine industry.

The more important evidence is that many media have quoted him.

Also, after his remarks came out, many people left messages of abuse on Link's social networking sites. All of this can be confirmed by the other side's reputation, and the reputation of Link and Blue Lagoon wines has been damaged.

As soon as his words of "selling stolen goods" came out, the sales of Blue Lagoon wines in the United States fell sharply, while the wines he represented himself became famous and began to rise in sales.

Link has proven that he is not infringing, so Donald's defamation is suspected of unfair competition. That can apply for punitive damages. It is possible to let the other party compensate him for tens of millions.

However, Matthew suggests: "Some people feel depressed easily because they are under too much social pressure. ”

Link wasn't a good guy, and he understood what he meant at once. He said: "I don't even dare to go out of my house lately, and I go out in hiding. I always fall asleep late at night, do you think I'm depressed because of stress?"

"I think there's a possibility. Matthew smiled at the corners of his mouth, but seriously suggested into the phone. "I suggest you see a psychiatrist. Although depression is not a direct fatal disease, it can have a significant impact on an individual's health and family life. If you have depression, I guess that's just the beginning. Early treatment is best. ”

Link said, "Thank you for the suggestion. I'll go to the doctor tomorrow. ”

Actually, he has a fart depression. I don't go out, I don't want to be surrounded by reporters, I sleep late at night, and I play a game of shame with Jessica. Matthew was clearly hinting at him, though, that he needed to prove that he had been affected.

That's mental loss.

Matthew obviously wants not only to get the legal fees, but also to get the commission after winning the lawsuit. He wanted Link to assert compensation for moral damages against the defendant.

Being a lawyer in the United States is typical of watching the excitement and not being afraid of big things. The bigger the matter, the more advantageous they are. Link also understands Matthew's ideas.

The lawsuit was in his favor. There is a good chance that it will win. Defamation lawsuits are civil lawsuits in most states in the United States, and they don't involve criminal lawsuits, and he can sue in Nevada or New York, but in those two states, even if he wins, he can't put Donald in jail. He needs more mental damage fees to make the other party remember the lesson.

So Jessica woke up to find that she slept alone last night. In the living room, she saw him yawning and watching the news.

"You didn't sleep last night?"

He blinked and said, "I'm having insomnia." As soon as he said that, he couldn't help but yawn again. Although usually he only needs to sleep for three or four hours at night, he is full of energy. But he hadn't stayed up all night for a long time, and his biological clock was still responding for a while.

Jessica was worried, she ran over to him and sat down, nervously asking, "Insomnia?"

"Because I want to know what it is normal to have depression. Link said with a smile. "Can you accompany me to the psychiatrist today? I feel like I must have mild depression. ”

"Must?" she couldn't understand.

Link whispered in her ear the contents of the call with Matthew, saying, "If I had depression, I would have at least asked for an extra 10 million in the cost of that Donald's trial." ”

"Are you sure you'll win?"

"Matthew: They analyzed. When we approached C&C for cooperation, there was no trace of the so-called infringement incident. And he doesn't have any indirect or direct connection with Luke Truss, so he can't possibly know where my grapes come from. And now that I've proven that the alleged infringement doesn't exist, Hull Donald's remarks are clearly in the nature of fabricated rumors. ”

He paused for a moment and then added: "And, Matthew, they have also found evidence that before he made those statements, the sales of Blue Lagoon wines had been steadily increasing, but after his remarks, the sales of Blue Lagoon wines fell very quickly. However, the wines he represented had a peak in sales. That proves that he is 'indeed malicious', slandering me and Blue Lagoon with rumors for his own benefit. The evidence now gathered is very favorable to me. ”

"Even if you want him to learn a lesson, you shouldn't joke with your own body. Go get some sleep!"

"No, that's just right. Let's go to a psychiatrist!"

Jessica couldn't, so she had to fly with him to Seattle to see a psychiatrist. Link looked up the information about depression one night, came prepared, and made the psychiatrist really think that he had an extra rich patient, and diagnosed Link as a patient with the initial symptoms of depression.

This time, Link did not keep a low profile, and even specially revealed the news of his haunt, so that reporters knew that he had gone to see a psychiatrist. He didn't give an interview, just walked down the road separated by bodyguards with a smile on his face. However, the reporter's brain is very big, and many people speculate that he is suffering from depression. Because they saw that Link's spirit was not very good.

After returning to Mora Castle, Link lost his temper from time to time. Occasionally, the behavior is somewhat different from that of a normal day. Jessica secretly laughed at him for being addicted to acting. However, after the court accepts a case, it will come to a court, and this court will actually confirm the acceptance of the case.

This hall Link did not appear. Only entrust him Matthew with them.

After that, he will have to wait a while before the case will officially go to trial.

At this point, though, things changed again. He received a summons from the District Court of San Francisco. Luke Truss took him to court again. The reason is still infringement. However, this infringement is that he used the so-called Truss No. 2 grape as the basis to cultivate the Blue Lagoon grape.

Link was unable to provide evidence to overturn the other party's claims.

When Jessica learned of this, she scolded in front of Link for the first time, "That bastard is going to stalk!"

She was so angry because of the lawsuit between Link and Hull Donald that went to justice. Originally, Link had already proven that he was not infringing. And Link was accused again, and the situation immediately changed again.

Link was also very annoyed in his heart, but he was not too angry: "Don't worry, the defamation lawsuit with Hull Donald has nothing to do with whether I am a defendant in infringement." Although the two cases are related, they are not really related. ”

Hull Donald's remarks have gone beyond the charges against Link and are rumor-mongering. However, the lawsuit between him and the other party will inevitably be affected. Because Link's complaint needs to clarify whether the defendant's remarks are based on "ascertained facts" in order to determine whether the defendant is really malicious.

Therefore, it is likely that the case against Truss against him will be settled before his lawsuit with Donald will really come to fruition.

But he wasn't worried, he really couldn't, and it didn't hurt him to use the vice decay god.

He sneered: "It seems that Luke Truss saw this and will launch a lawsuit again at this time, just to make me accept their conditions." ”

"And what are you going to do?"

He laughs and says, "He has no proof!" "He didn't plant the so-called Truss II anyway, and Luke Truss couldn't prove that he had bred the vines. Because he never did.

In the absence of chemical or artificial selection or other interventions, a plant is no longer a patented crop after mutation.

As long as there is no evidence that he manually intervened with the grapes he bought, Luke Truss's claim loses its premise. Therefore, Luke Truss lost the premise of winning the case from the beginning.

"But that will definitely take a toll on your wine sales, and even your reputation. ”

That's a problem, too. He really didn't plan to spend too much time with the other party: "I'm waiting for him to make a move." I discussed it with Charlie and he didn't have much chance of winning the case. But he filed a lawsuit anyway. I think he has something else in mind. ”

However, this change of time has made public opinion once again begin to exaggerate the moral problems of Blue Lagoon wine and Link.

Link didn't have a good idea of what to do, so he had to pay people to speak for him, and of course, advertise the Blue Lagoon wine.

For a moment, the debate between the two sides was inextricable. But it also made Link feel that he should have his own media outlet, at least in the future, he would have a place to speak for himself. But he couldn't rush this matter.

And at this time, Martha and they returned from Peru. Coming to Mora today is Martha and risk analyst Morris.

In the study, Link joked, "Looks like you're having a nice vacation in Peru!" Martha, though black, is a mixed race of black and white, which will tell that she is a little more tanned than before.

"Yes, we split into four groups and spent six days in the mountains of Peru. When we went, we took a car and inspected the local road traffic by the way. Martha replied with a smile.

"So did the negotiations go well?"

Martha nodded and said, "Pretty smooth." Deere did a great job. His strategy allowed us to negotiate a fairly favorable outcome for you. ”

She said and took out a dossier and said, "This is the preliminary result of our negotiations with the other party. If you don't have any comments, we can sign a cooperation agreement with them right away. By the time we get to the next spring, we'll be able to build a breeding farm and put it into use. ”

Link took out the file and looked at it carefully.

Martha, they didn't bother him either.

It took him more than half an hour to read it, then he looked up and said, "So I need to spend more than $250 million on this project?"

"Yes. They can guarantee the sale of more than 20,000 alpacas in the first year, and a maximum of 30,000. The acquisition was carried out by the Peruvian side. We need to spend 1,200 dollars per alpaca. Two hundred dollars of that are customs duties. ”

Link pursed his lips and said, "This tax is very heavy!"

"It's really heavy. But they bit it to death and did not let go. ”

He asked: "It says that we have signed an agreement with the farmers on the other side to use their alpacas to breed young, how can this guarantee that there will be no disputes in the agreement?" It is also possible to ask for the alpacas to be taken away at that time. He fears that the local government will defend the local farmers.

Martha explained: "This advocacy work will be undertaken by the Peruvian government. So we put five million dollars in our budget specifically for this work. At the same time, the agreement will also be guaranteed by the Peruvian government. According to our agreement, we will rent the farmer's alpacas to raise alpaca cubs, and the farmer will pay a certain fee for each alpaca. If the farmer wants to get the money, the alpaca cubs are all ours. If the other party wants cubs, they can use the rent to offset it, but the number should not exceed one-tenth of the rented alpaca. ”.
