Chapter 1046: Robbery of the Bank
"Well, well, what are your faults, I think now you also know very well, if I sue you in this matter, how much damage will be caused to the bank, I think you must know better than me, so if we want to settle this time, I think this is also to make it convenient for everyone, and I don't want much, so you will give three million dollars, right? Give money, and my client and I will not be held accountable for your faults. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoγγ β
As soon as Harvey opened his mouth, he asked for three million, and when he heard such an asking price, Kevin, who was sitting opposite, and James almost didn't squirt out the coffee he had just drunk in his mouth, and the bald James was even more bruised at this time, and his face was hideous, looking at him like this, it seemed that he really wanted to rush up and punch him a few times according to Harvey's beautiful face.
This Sven scum, as soon as he opened his mouth, he dared to ask for three million, what did you do when we were in the bank, did you open a good hall?
Rub, why don't you rob a bank? Forehead... No, this girl is robbing a bank!
Does this bastard really treat us bank counsel as dead people? Million...
And Kevin, who was sitting next to James, was even more red at this time, three million dollars, if he really agreed to this guy, then he wouldn't have to do the job of the general manager of the bank, I'm afraid that he would tell the upper shareholders of the bank about it, and those shareholders would immediately let themselves pack up and get out, so at this time he couldn't wait to eat it alive, the bastard in a suit and leather shoes opposite, no wonder people say that American lawyers are special vampires, this guy is simply the ancestor of vampires, It's really a bastard who can't be forgiven, don't let Lao Tzu know where your house is, or after today's incident, Lao Tzu will have to go to your house and burn down your kennel.
The two real power factions of the Manhattan Trust Bank, at this time, Harvey hated it so much, and at this time, Jin Muchen and Candace, who were sitting next to Harvey, were also in a state of blindfolding.
Jin Muchen is okay, after all, she has seen a lot of big scenes, and she soon regained her clarity, but Candace is different, since her family went bankrupt, her father committed suicide, and her brother disappeared, she fell into the middle of the family, and finally fell to the point of going to work in a fast food restaurant, let alone three million, even if it was three hundred, three thousand yuan is not a small amount of money for her now.
And now Harvey actually asked the bank for three million as soon as she opened her mouth, which made her feel as if she had misheard the number, three million, this is shelved in the United States, but an ordinary white-collar worker, nearly 60 years of salary, and she has to save without eating or drinking...
Jin Muchen didn't put the three million in his eyes, after all, with his current net worth, let alone three million, it was thirty million, three hundred million, it couldn't scare him, what really surprised him, Harvey's attitude of opening his mouth, you must know that what he deals with is not an ordinary institution, but a bank.
Of course, he is not to blame, after all, he has not had much contact with the American legal system, and in China, he has seen a lot of bad things with banks
In the Bank of China, it has always been a strong group, and they have always been the only thing about bullying the ordinary people, how can the ordinary people dare to trouble them?
In China, even if the bank's own internal ghost embezzles your deposits, the bank will not give you the depositor compensation in the end, but will find all kinds of excuses to shirk the blame, shirk the responsibility, and there is no integrity at all.
It's different in foreign countries, no matter what bank you have, even if you are the U.S. government, people dare to sue you, of course, the final success rate is generally not high, but if you can afford to hire a lawyer like Harvey, then your chances of success in appealing will be greatly increased.
Today, Harvey bluffed the two senior leaders of the Manhattan Trust Bank, and he asked for three million as soon as he opened his mouth, but the other party did not dare to easily refuse him, because of Harvey's own reputation and the law firm behind him.
If this is an ordinary person, even if you have strong evidence in your hand, the Manhattan Trust Bank will give you tens of thousands of dollars to send you away, but it is different when you meet Harvey.
First of all, this guy is famous, and secondly, the company behind him has connections in the city, and they have a lot of means, if you don't meet his conditions, people can hype up this case for you in minutes, and then lose money and lose the bank's reputation, but it's big.
So the two of them didn't make a decision easily at this time, but after the initial anger, they got together and began to whisper quietly.
After more than ten minutes, there was finally a result, then James sat up straight again, adjusted his mentality, Harvey asked for three million before, but he was taken aback, but after all, he was experienced, and he quickly calmed down.
He has been in this business for a long time, of course, he knows the allusions of asking for money on the ground and exchanging money on the ground, so what he will enter next will be a very difficult bargaining process, and Harvey is a very difficult guy.
Offering him a low price, he will definitely not accept it, but it is also not okay to pay a price that is too high, because then he will think that you are not firm in your position, and it is very likely that you want three million in the end, and you will also agree, so that he will not let go, which is not what James wants to see.
So he whispered to Kevin for a long time before finally negotiating an offer.
"Harvey, three million? Are you serious? Do you think our bank is a charity? Three million, you might as well go to the counter with a gun and grab it... β
James paused when he said this, and then kept quietly observing the facial expression of Harvey on the other side, if Harvey listened to his tough words and reacted violently, it means that there is not much room for him to make a counteroffer, if there is no overreaction, it shows that the other party's attitude towards the counteroffer is not particularly opposed, which means that everything is discussed.
At this time, James saw that Harvey was sitting opposite, muttering to his client, and it didn't seem to be too violent to react, which made him feel relieved, and it was easy to do.
"Well, Harvey, we can agree to pay Miss Candace $10,000, what do you think?"
Hearing the offer, Harvey stopped whispering to his client and looked up at James with a look of contempt.
"James, are you calling Hanako? Do you know how much I pay for an appearance right now? Wu tens of thousands of dollars? Then you're waiting for a summons from the court, right? I just don't know, if this case gets spread, what will those newspapers write? Oh, you also know that those pens are the most likely to scribble in order to attract attention, and if they really don't write a few good words to you, how much do you think your bank's business will be affected? The most important thing is, how much will the stock price of your bank in the stock market, and the share price of Northern Trust, fall? In this world, any negative news may make your major shareholders lose billions, right? Do you say that when the time comes, will they eat you? You say I'll ask you for three million dollars, but that's more than those losses? And if this matter goes to court, don't think about the final result, it will definitely be us who wins, how much do you say the judge will award you to pay at that time? Three million, or thirty million? β
Harvey's words can be said to be heart-wrenching, every sentence is to stick a knife in the chest of James and Kevin, and the questions he said are what Kevin and James are most afraid of.
If they really go to court, I am afraid that before the results of the court's disposition come out, their bank and the bank's major shareholder, Northern Trust, will suffer heavy losses in the stock market.
Add to that the nonsense that the newspapers put on fire for you, and the last one who will be deflated must be the bank, and the two of them will definitely not want to keep their jobs.
And when the time comes, if the court awards compensation, it will definitely not be as simple as 30 million.
"So, James, don't look at me and asking you for three million seems to be a lot, in fact, I treat you as a friend, so I asked you for a friendship price, and I'm helping you? You should think about it again and see if this is what I said. β
Of course, Harvey saw James and Kevin at a glance, and after listening to his words, he hesitated, he knew that he was holding the seven inches of these two guys, since this is the case, of course, he has to be slaughtered, anyway, against the bank guys, it is absolutely impossible to be polite to them.
James and Kevin muttered quietly for a long time, and then Zams looked up, looked at Harvey and said, "Thank you, Harvey, my friend, thank you for thinking so much about us, I just discussed it with Kevin again, our lobby manager, what he did before was really wrong, so I'll ask her to apologize to Miss Candace later, but as for compensation?" We can raise it to a million for you, but it really can't be any higher. β
As soon as James relented, it seemed that they were really afraid that Harvey would take the bank to court, so they doubled their original bid, hoping that Harvey could accept it when he saw it.
Unexpectedly, they did this, but it just had the opposite effect, when Candace heard that the other party promised a million compensation, he was so excited that he couldn't wait to agree to it, and then immediately take the money and leave.
But just as she was about to speak, she was held down by Jin Muchen, who was sitting next to her, and then saw a look given to her by Jin Muchen, signaling her not to worry, to watch the play first. (To be continued.) )
