Chapter 19 There is no way out of doubt
The time has quietly arrived in late August, and it has been five days since Gu Mojie sold the copyright of the "universal input method". According to the normal student party schedule, school will start in ten days.
But fortunately, Gu Mojie is a freshman, and the theoretical reporting time will be more than ten days later than the start of the senior year, so he still has time.
Of course, it is impossible for Gu Mojie to know about the conspiracy between Li Boming and Zou Sheng, but Gu Mojie is really feeling the consequences of this conspiracy.
After the lawyer's letter was issued, Fei Liluo first held a conference call with people from Baidu about the exchange of evidence; He also faxed a copy of the evidence that Gu Mojie had notarized with a notary office to prove that Baidu had indeed pinned false propaganda links. Then came the negotiations, which lasted for several days, and Filero flew to the capital.
Of course, there is no need to elaborate too much on the details of cumbersome legal negotiations, otherwise tens of thousands of words will not be clear. All in all, Baidu's attitude can be described as a two-stage change:
In the first day or two, when receiving Gu Mojie's evidence, Baidu was still very sincere, and had no objection to the general tone of definitely compensating Gu Mojie. However, from the third day, that is, when Fei Liluo flew to the capital for an interview, there was a subtle turn on Baidu's side.
The legal negotiators sent by Baidu put forward a point of view: in the days when Gu Mojie's competitor's fake links were pinned to the top, those links had obvious inflated clicks, and the conversion rate of clicks to downloads was significantly lower than that of other contemporaries. Therefore, Baidu believes that this phenomenon is highly suspicious of botnet involvement.
Therefore, Gu Mojie's loss of clicks caused by the top of the competitor's fake link cannot be directly judged by the number of clicks of the fake link, because the clicks of this fake link are many times higher.
In other words, Gu Mojie originally defined his loss with the assumption that "when the keyword 'universal input method' was packaged by the fast network, its related links got more than 1 million clicks and spent 1 million advertising fees within three days". He used this indirect evidence to believe that his input method was thus less than 1 million clicks.
Baidu's rebuttal is that because of the keyword "universal input method", Swift Network actually did not attract more than 1 million clicks of unjust profit. Because many clicks are malicious clicks of botnets, the actual effective clicks may only be 10~200,000. At most, Gu Mojie's loss can only be measured by the loss of 200,000 actual clicks, and compensation can be made.
If Baidu's rebuttal is true, then Gu Mojie will receive much smaller compensation. He asked for more than one million at the beginning, but in the end he may only get two or three hundred thousand.
Two or three hundred thousand is enough to dry a yarn? So he definitely can't recognize this planting.
……
Feliro flew back to Qiantang from the capital in the dust, and two flights in three days were the first time she had interned at a law firm. The ticket was naturally reimbursed by Gu Mojie, and as soon as she got off the plane, Gu Mojie went to pick her up, and then the two of them discussed it in the long run-Gu Mojie drove Feliluo's car, because three days ago, Gu Mojie also drove Feliluo to the airport, and then drove her car back.
"It's hard work, it doesn't matter if you can't talk about it for the time being." Gu Mojie received Fei Liluo at the exit, and immediately helped her with a salute very courteously, and asked as she walked: "Do you know why Baidu's attitude has turned to procrastination and toughness?" ”
Fei Liluo wore a big sunglasses, did not answer Gu Mojie directly, sighed lowly, and said to him: "You are also a person with your own business, buy a car, it's convenient." Knowing that you are not particular about cars, you don't need a good car, just travel. ”
Gu Mojie was stunned for a moment, and scratched his head embarrassedly, it may be the sequelae of the two lives, which made him not very interested in chasing good cars. However, since Feliro kicked out, it obviously makes sense. At the moment, he was perfunctory: "In a few months, don't be in a hurry, as long as Shi Guanghu's big money arrives, I will buy one immediately." ”
On the airport expressway, Fei Liluo sorted out her thoughts, and then slowly told Gu Mojie about some of the analysis she got during the negotiations in the past few days: "I estimate that Shi Guanghu and Zou Sheng must have gotten information and know that you are negotiating with Baidu, so they must have also contacted Baidu, and Baidu is dragging us like this." ”
Gu Mojie was driving, he couldn't be distracted too much, so naturally his brain didn't turn very fast, so he just followed Fei Liluo's train of thought and asked, "Why do you say that?" Analyze it. ”
Fei Liluo made up her lipstick, pursed her lips, and continued: "There is a shadow of a botnet in this matter, and the masters inside Baidu can definitely detect it on their own." However, if Shi Guanghu does not pierce this layer of window paper and says that he will not pursue Baidu, Baidu will not raise this point against us.
Because if Baidu breaks the membrane of the botnet when negotiating with us, it will lose our money. But in the future, Shi Guanghu may use this as a reason to talk to Baidu about 'returning some of the advertising fees that were overcharged due to malicious clicks'. In that way, for Baidu, it is nothing more than a left-handed in and right-handed out, and there is no loss in the total amount. ”
Gu Mojie was stunned when he heard this, and said: "So, do you think Shi Guanghu must have secretly given Baidu a guarantee behind his back: let Baidu rest assured and boldly bring the matter of the botnet to the table, even if Baidu uses the pretext of the botnet to suppress us, Shi Guanghu will never use this double-edged sword to fight Baidu in the future?" ”
To put it bluntly, the botnet is a double-edged sword evidence here, A can use it to fight B, and B can also use it to fight C. If A wants to induce B to fight C without any worries, then what A has to do is to promise B: "You can use this evidence to attack C, even if you succeed, I promise not to use this evidence to attack you."
As for the specific means used by Shi Guanghu to ensure it, outsiders don't know, even if Gu Mojie and Fei Liluo have a rebellious IQ, they can't come up with it.
Gu Mojie was a little decadent by this bad news, paused for a while, thought about the cause and effect, and then asked: "Then how do you think Shi Guanghu knew that we were going to contact Baidu and get hot money from Baidu?" Or rather, where did this news leak from? ”
Feliro bit her lip and hesitated for a moment, but finally said the answer she didn't want to believe: "No one else on your side knows about this." Before Baidu gets the guarantee, it should be too late to hide from Shi Guanghu, and it will not take the initiative to contact. So, it should have leaked out of our office. The lawyer's letter must be issued with the seal of the firm, not the lawyer's private seal, and someone in the firm must know about it, and it is estimated that it was leaked out at that time. ”
The direction of the car drifted slightly, which made Gu Mojie quickly sober up. It turned out that when she heard Feliro's answer, she was slightly angry, so much so that the hand holding the steering wheel tightened slightly.
"Commercial bribery? Deliberately sell Shi Guanghu well? Or does someone have a grudge against me? ”
"I don't know."
"I don't know anyone in your house at all, if you want to say anything about hatred, it can only be Li Boming - is there anything abnormal about that Li Boming these days?"
Feliro's eyes were full of disbelief: "Wouldn't it? Is that a grudge a thing? How many people are so eager to repay that they betray the people in the house for such a trivial matter? I've been out there these days, and I don't know what's going on in the office. I'll ask my aunt when I go back. ”
"I'll just say casually, it's better if it's not." Gu Mojie sighed, and then turned to another topic.
"You've been around for a few days, I've thought about it too. If Baidu's money can't be obtained in September, the only way to do this is to speed up Supor's patent sales plan. I've been sprinting for the final materials for the past two days, and the samples are almost ready. At that time, it was specifically applied for a patent directly and then sold to Supor; Or sell it privately and give the name of the inventor to Supor, and you will have to help the staff to see which way is the most profitable and the fastest to get back. ”
Although Fei Liluo worked very hard, she felt a little sorry in her heart when she thought that it was because of her mistakes that Gu Mojie couldn't get Baidu's money quickly.
At this moment, Gu Mojie was no longer entangled in that problem, but looked forward and found another direction to solve it, Fei Liluo suddenly felt a little less guilty, and immediately volunteered to help Gu Mojie talk together, regardless of fatigue.
……
Back in the city, there was no word for the next few days. Gu Mojie is doing the final sprint of patents such as Lingyi knives, and tries to make the technical information as solid as possible.
On the other side, Gu Mojie also took a copy of the lawyer's letter to Baidu, contacted Huang He, who was in Donou, and made an appointment with him.
The bills of exchange and contracts involving specific compensation amounts that Shi Guanghu gave him were locked in the safe of a third-party organization, so that Gu Mojie could not come up with any proof of his financial strength in the past few months, so as to borrow money for a while. In 03 China, credit lending is not hot, so if Gu Mojie wants to work capital, the fastest thing is to find Huang He.
Gu Mojie's lawyer's letter to Baidu does not have any legal probative effect and cannot explain Gu Mojie's strength. But he can only gamble with favors, so that Huang He can see his tossing strength and see his potential.
After some negotiations, Huang He still valued him and gave him an additional credit loan of 500,000 yuan, and did not ask Gu Mojie for additional interest, but said that the account period of Gu Mojie's previous loan would also be shortened by one year and paid at the end of the year.
In other words, Huang He gave Gu Mojie 1.3 million before and after, and Gu Mojie had to repay 1.5 million at the end of the year, and the average account period was only seven or eight months.
Gu Mojie readily agreed to this condition, as long as Shi Guanghu's more than 10 million yuan is in hand, Huang He's 1.5 million will not be left behind, and it will not hurt at all. His temperament also doesn't like to owe money.
As long as the capital chain composed of the four links of Huanghe-Supor-Baidu-Xunjie Network can be entered in batches and on schedule, then Gu Mojie's battle to race against Xunjie Network again will not be delayed in the starting time.
