Chapter 14 Giving a lawyer's letter is not called extortion

Gu Mojie spent about half an hour to explain the entanglement between himself and Baidu. Feliro listened carefully, but she was not a science student, and many of the tricks were still unclear. In the end, Gu Mojie had to spend some more effort to talk about the matter of "using botnets to point enemy advertisements", including the secret transaction between him and Sheng Wei, and Fei Liluo could be regarded as a complete understanding.

The more she listened, the more frightened she became, she didn't know how Gu Mojie's brain was long, and she could only use two phrases to describe it: IQ demon and ruthless.

After listening to this qiΔ“, Fei Liluo sorted out the notes at hand, and finally confirmed: "So, because of the operation of you and that Shengwei botnet, you estimate that Baidu has at least earned more than 2 million advertising dollars from Xunjie Network Technology?" And about 1 million of them belong to the gray income brought by statutory false publicity? ”

Gu Mojie nodded affirmatively, and gave Fei Liluo a reassurance: "Of course, the search for the five words 'universal input method', the top result of the search is 'fast input method', what is this called false propaganda?" ”

"Then how much hush money are you going to pay from Baidu?"

"I haven't figured this out yet. You do this business, how much do you think is appropriate? ”

Fei Liluo frowned slightly, and said, "The information is insufficient, and it is difficult to define it for you now." Because I don't know how much of the expected benefit you have suffered in this behavior of Baidu. How much Baidu earns and how much you lose are two concepts that cannot be confused legally. "The chapter of 潢し言し格 intoxication has been uploaded

Gu Mojie couldn't keep up with the rhythm, after all, his little legal knowledge was completely air-to-air, and he had no practical experience. When he scratched his head, he was a little unwilling: "Baidu made an extra profit of 1 million because of this fraud, so can't you give me all the 1 million he profited, or at least give me most of it?" ”

Feliro sneered, but her eyes were full of pride, because she finally found a trace of intellectual superiority in front of this demonic brother: "If you think so, just wait to be planted." If nothing else, let me ask you first: whether you were still hesitating, whether you contacted them privately to reach a compensation agreement; Or is it safe to find a lawyer's letter from our law firm? ”

Gu Mojie felt that Fei Liluo's words were a little clueless, but he still answered positively: "Do you want to go to the lawyer's letter, I want to see the cost, if it is not expensive......"

"If you want to go to the lawyer's letter and let the law firm send someone to mediate with Baidu, in addition to the guaranteed carriage and horse fees, you have to give 8 percent. This is just not in court, a private letter to settle, Baidu will pay you a lot, and the law firm will take 8%. If there is a lawsuit, then it is another matter, and it is possible to multiply it several times. ”

Gu Mojie was taken aback: "So expensive? That is, if I want to get 1 million, I will give you 80,000? In that case, I really want to reconcile privately. It's a big deal, I personally ask you to talk with me, this 80,000 yuan will make you a good personal ......"

Feliro smiled slyly, revealing a playful expression of "Too young, too simple Tucson broken": "If you think so, then you will be recruited, maybe you will lose the opportunity to study, and get a sentence of one reprieve." ”

"What? One suspended sentence and three suspended sentences? Where is this? ”

Fei Liluo didn't answer, and asked instead: "Let me ask you, you tell you the truth, what is the actual loss on your side of Baidu?" Be sure to tell the truth. ”

Gu Mojie was completely caught by the other party, thought for a while, and said: "It's not that I don't want to say it, it's really difficult to define this thing, because of the tricks of Baidu and Xunjie Network, I estimate that I have lost hundreds of thousands of new users." But these users can't be cashed out directly, and it's hard to say how much it's worth. I estimate that the price is two or three hundred thousand, which can still be said in the industry. ”

"Okay, then count it as 300,000 - if you lose 300,000, then today you don't have a formal lawyer's letter in private, but you go to Baidu privately and ask for 1 million, or even 2 million. So, if I were Baidu, guess what I would do? ”

"How?"

"I can send someone to talk to you falsely, pretend to agree to your request, and even induce you to offer you a price that is significantly higher than your actual loss, and give you the money. Then they will go to the police, charge you with a crime of extortion, and send you to jail. ”

Gu Mojie was shocked: "The crime of extortion? I just got my losses back, how did it become a crime of extortion. ”

"Because your asking price is higher than your actual loss. And in this matter, Baidu's goodwill is actually in your hands, and Baidu can leave evidence to say that when you go to negotiate, you threaten them with the reason of 'exposing Baidu's connivance with false propaganda', and they have to give in and give an excess premium. The more money they give you, the heavier your charges will be, and then the money you get will be spit out after you are convicted. ”

"Impossible, right? Not to mention that if it really becomes a criminal case, will the court sentence me? Just Baidu makes such a fuss, won't it be in the news, and everyone will know that they condone false propaganda at that time. Can they expose their scandals to the public for the sake of a million? ”

"There are too many such things, and large companies will also be afraid of consumers or customers kicking their noses in the face, and it is natural to make an example of them once in a while. Haven't you heard of those cases where the pressure cooker explosion injured people, obviously the loss of medical expenses is only 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, but the victim asks for hundreds of thousands of high prices on the grounds of exposing the manufacturer's product defects. In the end, the manufacturer pinched his nose and gave the money, and when he turned around, he reported a crime of extortion, stuffed money into the court, and sent the consumer to prison. ”

This principle is easy to understand, although it is also money, but giving money to the strong will not cause unnecessary trouble. And giving money to the weak often means being soft, which will make many weak people who were originally slaves in peace want to move.

This is like when a developer acquires land, it is clear that the cost of killing a nail household is not higher than satisfying a nail household, but it has to exterminate the nail household. Because after you satisfy a nail household, it is possible for thousands of Shunmin to see the weakness of the developer and be ready to move. The Chinese people's attribute of bullying the soft and fearing the hard to follow the trend is very strong.

Gu Mojie buried his head deep between his elbows, feeling a sense of powerlessness. After being stunned for a long time, he asked weakly: "Then there is no way to avoid this risk?" ”

Fei Liluo showed a triumphant smile: "Of course there is, that is, you must officially issue a lawyer's letter to talk to the other party." If you send out a letter, it is a business-like negotiation, and the legal basis and evidence of the negotiation are preserved, and whether the price is higher or lower is only a matter of negotiation skills. If you have to save money on that lawyer's letter, your act of negotiating can be classified as 'private extortion' by the law. ”

Gu Mojie suddenly said: It turns out that the lawyer's letter still has this use! It turns out that extortion after giving a lawyer's letter is not called extortion.

"It seems that I really can't save this money."

"Of course you can't save - it's not that I'm so expensive, it's worth 80,000 yuan to accompany you to negotiate a judgment. It's because the official seal in the office is so expensive. ”

"Okay, then I'll leave all this matter to you, and I'll sort out all the relevant materials for you. Anyway, I don't have anything to be unwilling to earn for you. As much as you want. Gu Mojie rubbed his eyes and put on a shrug expression of surrender, "But you're only a junior and you don't have a lawyer's license, can you do this kind of thing?" ”

"It only negotiates on behalf of the law firm, and it does not appear in court, and it does not require evidence. If you really entrust me, as long as you leave enough 60% for the office, the rest will be mine. ”

Gu Mojie picked up the coffee and touched it with Felilo, which was a pleasant cooperation. After talking for a while, his mobile phone rang wildly again, and after picking it up, it was Zhou Lixin calling again.

Zhou Lixin said that Shi Guanghu sent someone to negotiate in Shenzhen, hoping to reconcile with him.
