368. I bail you out (4/10)

Wang Bo slowly walked to the last police car, and on the way he met several Aocheng policemen, all of whom were quite respectful to him, and it was obvious that Wang Bo had shown his ability in several cases that they admired.

In fact, if you recall carefully, Lao Wang felt that he had not done anything great, and he could only say that his colleagues in New Zealand were too rubbish, and he was forced to pull out such a general as him.

When he arrived at the police car, he looked and saw that there were four people locked up inside, one of them was a middle-aged man about forty years old, and the other three were relatively young, dressed very ordinary, neither dyed nor dressed in fancy clothes, and the four of them were similar to ordinary people on the street.

After looking at it carefully, Wang Bo asked suspiciously, "Did the four of you stay in the villa on the farm just now?" ”

They caught four people when they attacked from the east, it seemed to be the four of them, and he didn't look closely at the time, and the four of them came out of the villa and squatted down with their butts pouted.

The four of them sat there dejectedly, like partridges in the wind and rain, listening to Wang Bo's words, the middle-aged man said weakly: "Yes police officer, I picked up the ****** at that time, but I didn't know that you were policemen at that time, and I didn't attack it, right?" ”

Wang Bo said: "I'm not here to hold you responsible, I want to know, how long have you been working for Robert?" ”

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "What Robert?" Swear to God, I don't know who Robert is, we're just a band, and we were asked to cover some songs, and here we are. ”

"How many years have you been singing here?"

"We don't stay here all the time, we just stay here for about ten days a month at most, record a few dozen songs and leave."

"I'm asking how many years have you been singing here? Are all the songs in it covered by you? Wang Bo asked urgently.

A yellow-haired young man in his thirties stood up irritable and said, "You have asked ten times, we have been singing here for four or five years, who remembers how long?" Anyway, we just sing, like singing in a bar......"

"Like a bar singer? Will the bar make records for you? Will these records be released to you? You already knew it was a crime, didn't you? Wang Bo said coldly.

The young man wanted to roar, but the middle-aged man glared at him sternly and said, "Reddy, sit down!" Leave it to me here, and I'll take care of it! ”

After speaking, he looked at Wang Bo and said calmly: "Yes, we know that this is a crime, but we only provide singing, just like the bar singing, we don't care about the purpose of these records, and we don't care about the source of these songs." ”

"How much does the owner of this place give you? How do you make a profit? ”

The middle-aged man said: "We have already answered, and this time the answer is still the same, singing a song is two hundred New Zealand dollars, and we can earn a total of 15,000 to 20,000 yuan a month." ”

"So little?" Wang Bo asked in surprise, there are four of them, so the average amount of money they can get a month is only 4,000 to 5,000 yuan, which is really not much money for their voices.

The four of them did not answer his question, only the middle-aged man spread his hands and made a gesture of 'I am telling the truth, do you believe it or not'.

Wang Bo didn't care about their attitude, he smiled and said, "Then how much money do you have left now?" You know, right, somebody is going to take you to court, and if no one is willing to bail you out, then you're going to have to prepare a lot of damages. ”

In New Zealand infringement cases, the cost of going to court is very small, and there is no need to pay any cost, and it is sufficient to file a lawsuit.

However, lawyers are needed to go to court, and the lawyers' fees are very expensive, and in many infringement cases, the compensation claimed is not enough to pay the lawyer's fees, so according to common sense, once an intellectual property infringement case goes to court, the amount of the claim will not be small.

As for the amount of fine, it is difficult to say, and the judge will determine the 'infringing act' and 'consequences', up to a maximum of $150,000. In addition, the court may impose a sentence on the infringer for a maximum of five years if the infringement is very severe!

Listening to Wang Bo's words, the four people in the car fell silent, and the young man who was about to get angry just now looked extremely aggrieved, he kicked the carriage with his feet irritably, and said angrily: "Hey, officer, if you have anything to say, don't step on the horse and ramble here!" If you want to know who the owner of this factory is, sorry we don't know! We really don't know! ”

Wang Bo shrugged and said, "I don't care who the owner of this factory is, guys, I'm here to tell you that if those records are your voice, if you are willing to work for my bar, then I can pay you bail." ”

Hearing this again, the four of them suddenly looked at him with wide eyes, and asked almost in unison, "What?" "You're willing to bail out?" "You're kidding, aren't you?"

Wang Bo said calmly: "I'm not joking, yes, I can pay the bail for you, but there are conditions, you have to work for me......"

"You also have an underground factory?" Someone asked in shock.

The middle-aged man pushed him and said dissatisfiedly, "Are your ears ornamental?" The officer said he invited us to his bar to sing, right, officer? ”

Wang Bo nodded and smiled: "Yes, not everyone does illegal business, my business is legal." If you are willing to accept my bail, then you must work for my bar, I don't bully you, the number of years of work is converted according to the bail, you can get up to 20,000 yuan a month here, right? Then I will calculate it according to 20,000 yuan, how many times the bail is 20,000 yuan, and how many months you will work for me. Of course, I'll pay you a salary, and make sure you're earning much more than you do now. ”

Reddy, the yellow-haired young man, shook his head, he said: "No, it's not fair, the price of our singing here is very low, that's because we can make records, so we are willing to work at a low price, in fact, we are also famous......"

"I can also make records for you, and it's not piracy, as long as you can write your own songs, I can pay a record company to release records for you." Wang Bo interrupted him and said.

This condition was obviously tempting to the four youths, and Reddy was the first to exclaim, "Then what are you hesitating about? That's it! ”

The middle-aged man was obviously more stable, and he asked cautiously, "Mr. Officer, aren't you afraid that we won't enforce the contract after we are released on bail?" Or maybe even if we go to your bar and don't sing seriously, aren't you worried? ”

Wang Bo smiled kindly: "No, I'm not worried, I bet that as long as you sign the contract, you don't dare to do it, I'm confident that you won't dare." ”

Although his smile was very kind, after seeing it, the four of them couldn't help but shudder together...... (To be continued.) )
