Chapter 387 Legal Loopholes, Little John Appears (1/3, Ask for Subscription~)
The number of floors displayed in the elevator kept going up, and soon it was the sixteenth floor.
Outside the conference room, four security personnel are responsible for maintaining order, and there are no outsiders on this floor except for the hotel service staff. Barnett, Jacques, Baronner and an elegant middle-aged man were waiting at the door of the conference room, and after seeing Han Xiao, Barnett first stepped forward to say hello: "Hello, Mr. Han from Huaxia, I'm Barnett, the Governor of Western Australia......"
"Hello Governor Barnett." Han Xiao smiled slightly, shook Barnett's hand, and then looked at the middle-aged man with an elegant temperament, "Governor Michael, long time no see." ”
"Yes, Mr. Han, we really haven't seen each other in a while. Speaking of which, today is the first time we have met since Prince Afif's cocktail party, and it is a great honor to see you here......" Michael stretched out his hand, and his tall body gave a slightly oppressive feeling.
The so-called governor is the nominal supreme head of a state here in Australia, and in fact is the representative of the queen to a state in the Commonwealth. The power may not be very great, but the status is indeed very high, and it is above the governor.
Before here in Australia, Afif held a business exchange meeting in private, and this Michael was on the invitation list, which is considered to be an acquaintance.
"Haha! Looking at the situation, today we should be on the opposite side! When the matter here is settled, we will talk about it when we have time. Han Xiao waved his hand indifferently - he didn't have much evil thoughts about Michael's presence here. This guy's role in this matter is actually just an ornament! Maybe he's just here to join in the fun today!
"Okay, Mr. Han, I'm looking forward to meeting you next." Michael smiled, "Also, the Queen asked me to say hello to you, and asked me to ask for your opinion, is there any other way to solve the matter of the general cargo shipping company?" Solve problems with violence. It's not good for either side......"
"Huh...... Want me to stop? Yes! I didn't like that Count Bedier, and I used to say that I would let him change his career...... So let's do it, the general cargo ship shipping company changes its boss. I'll just stop. In addition, ask the new boss to prepare me with a $50 million 'hardship fee'. ”
In the past two days, Han Xiao has not been idle. Ariel sent her companions to other seas, sinking eight more cargo ships in two days, the loss of the General Cargo Shipping Company. It's not usually big. The old lady in Britain probably didn't want Han Xiao to carry out this kind of senseless sabotage, so she asked Michael to help with a message.
Michael nodded: "Okay, Mr. Han, I will tell the queen what you say." ”
"This is the Director General of Western Australia's Resources and Energy Agency, Mr Jacques."
"This is the vice president of Meander Mining Company, Baronner. Mr. Maiande. ”
……
Everyone introduced themselves to each other, and after they got to know each other, Auston answered the phone and hurriedly got up: "Sorry, Mr. Han." Mr. Governor, Mr. Governor, I'm sorry that I suddenly have something very important here, so I have to leave first, and I hope you will succeed in your negotiations. ”
Auston left in a hurry, and the two sides chatted a few more times before hearing Barnett smile: "Let's cut to the chase now." Mr. Han, we in the Western Australian Government would like to raise questions about Mr. Han's ownership of Fernande Mining. As far as we know, Mr. Han, when you acquired Fernande Mining Company. Didn't seem to pay even a single dollar......"
Louis immediately spoke, "I'm sorry, Governor Barnett. In fact, we at the Fernande Mining Company have explained this to you many times. Of course, if necessary. We can also explain that here. My BOSS Mr. Han was able to get Fernande Mining without paying a $1 fee because there was a rights and responsibilities agreement......"
"Half a year ago, Mr. Han was interested in investing in the farm, and he was introduced by a business partner, so he came to Australia and made a deal with a man named John in Northam. Purchased Hank Farm and Ryan Farm. In this transaction, Mr. John Jr. had other business activities, and Mr. Han expressed his willingness to invest, and then signed a rights and responsibility agreement with Mr. John Jr. The witnesses who signed the agreement were lawyers from both sides, and as for the specific content of the rights and responsibilities agreement...... Yes, there is. ”
Louis pulled out a contract, flipped through the terms and conditions, and handed it to Barnett's side.
Barnett just glanced at it, then shook his head, and said, "No, Attorney Louis, we all know about what you said. However, what we want to emphasize is...... There are obvious legal loopholes in the terms of the terms of this agreement......"
"Legal loopholes?" When Louis heard this, the expression on his face changed slightly.
"Yes, it's a legal loophole." On Barnett's side, a legal officer from the Bureau of Resources and Energy picked up a pen, circled one of the sentences, and said with a smile, "The content of this subsidiary clause is as follows: if Mr. Han fails to fulfill the purchase of the mineral sands ship of the bankrupt shipping company within two months, he will need to compensate Mr. John Jr. about 30 million Australian dollars; If Mr. Han completes the acquisition, Fernand Mining Company must sign a supply agreement with Mr. Han for the relevant mineral resources within five days, but if the supply agreement is not successfully signed within five days, then Fernand Mining Company under John Jr. will be forcibly transferred to Mr. Han......"
"I have to say, there are loopholes in this, there are big loopholes! In this subsidiary clause, it is not clearly stated that if Mr. Han's side deliberately delays the time, resulting in the division of rights and responsibilities when the supply agreement is not successfully signed. In other words, if Mr. Han's side deliberately delayed the signing of the agreement for five days after fulfilling the terms of the agreement to acquire the ore ship, then Fernande Mining Company would automatically belong to Mr. Han. ”
"Therefore, we have enough reason to believe that Mr. Han should have seized the Fernande Mining Company by this means!"
When the legal officer finished speaking, Ariel also translated this large string of tongue-twisting words to Han Xiao.
"Huh...... It's really a loophole. Han Xiao muttered.
Louis next to him didn't look good - in fact, after Han Xiao had an absolute advantage, Little John did plead with Han Xiao's side to sign an agreement. It's just that this guy had a good hatred at the beginning, and he offended Han Xiao, Afif, Francisco, and Natalie, where would Han Xiao pay attention to him?
"But in fact, it was Mr. John Jr. who refused to sign the supply agreement in the first place." Louis spoke coldly.
"Haha, that's interesting. The content of such an agreement, if signed, will win a way out for the sale of its own minerals; If he doesn't sign it, everything in his name will change hands, and he will have nothing. It's unbelievable that he would refuse to sign ......" Baronner smiled and spread his hands, as if mockingly.
Han Xiao narrowed her eyes and turned her head to glance at Baronner: "This guy's name is Baronner, right?" Governor Barnett, though I don't know why this guy is here...... But, let me ask more, is his attitude your attitude? ”
Barnett shrugged: "Mr. Han, in this matter, our attitude is the same as Mr. Baronner. And...... We also have witnesses. ”
"Witnesses?" Han Xiao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly something came to mind in her mind.
"Yes, we have one of the most direct witnesses......" When the words fell, I saw two security guards walking in from outside the door with a guy.
When Louis saw this man, he was visibly stunned: "Shit! How is he still alive? ”
It was Little John who walked in.
Although Little John, who was dressed in a formal suit, was a whole circle thinner than before, he could still be recognized at a glance.
When Little John's eyes fell on Han Xiao, he had an unconcealable hatred. Han Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said in a cold voice: "Little John, I dare to guarantee that if you dare to stare at me with that kind of look again, I will kill you now!" ”
If it hadn't been for the previous promise to ASIS that this negotiation would be conducted within the rules, Han Xiao would have killed Little John now. Moreover, Han Xiao now also understands why Auston left in a hurry just now - this guy must have known that Little John was still alive, or that they did the thing about saving Little John from the island......
"I really didn't expect you to find this guy......" Han Xiao looked at Barnett with a smile.
Barnett said, "Mr. Han, I hope you don't get angry. We just found a witness to testify. Moreover, we have obtained the testimony of Mr. John Jr. one step in advance, as well as the audio and video materials, as well as his experience of being imprisoned on a desert island, all of which show that there was indeed a problem in the performance of the contract in the first place......"
It seems that this guy was looking for death at the beginning, and he insisted on joining forces with McGaull, so he ended up here, okay?
However, Han Xiao also knew in his heart that it would be useless to talk about this at this time, so he simply glanced at Louis and asked Louis to continue the next negotiations.
As for Han Xiao, a pair of eyes stared at Little John, thinking in his heart that this scourge could not be left no matter what.
At the beginning, because of Wang Changming's words, he was soft for a while, but now it has become a big trouble.
Because of the appearance of John Jr., there is an impasse over the ownership of the Fernande Mining Company.
In the blink of an eye, the morning time had passed, and Han Xiaotui said that there was something in the afternoon, so he temporarily suspended the negotiations. Now the situation is unfavorable, and if we continue to talk, I am afraid that we can really only get three percent. (To be continued.) )
