Chapter 1023 The Japanese are all living Lei Feng (second update)
"Hey...... Hey, hey, ......" After talking for a while, he didn't wait for Lin Hongfei's reply. Thinking that there was something wrong with the signal, Iacocca cursed, "This is a damn international signal, I should use a satellite phone ...... in the future."
"No, Iacoca, I'm listening," Lin Hongfei said busily, "No need for anything else, just Star, I know that they are a well-known law firm that is very good at handling international trade disputes, of course ......"
"It's also a law firm that wants money!" Lin Hongfei and Iacocca said in unison, and after speaking, both of them were stunned, and then Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed: This is really a tacit understanding.
"Since you know something about Skadden, then Skadden," said Lee. "You send them a simple fax of the briefing, preferably with a copy of the relevant provisions of the contract and a photo of the problem...... Forget that, the photos sent by fax are just a bunch of shit! All you have to do is send the relevant information on the contract, and in three days at most they will leave for the republic, and you can write down the fax number, which is ......"
Writing down the number, Lin Hongfei's heart moved, and he asked, "Iacocca, do you want me to arrange for my private jet to pick them up?" ”
"No," Lee. Iacocca didn't understand Lin Hongfei's intentions for the demonstration, but his answer was unusually shocking, "Their Skadden Law Firm has its own business jet. ”
No way!
Nima!
Fuck!
These swear words are all the feelings that Lin Hongfei wants to express: a law firm has its own business jet...... Nima, is there any reason for this?!

"Hongfei, why did you start a lawsuit with the Japanese?" Bao Junyu's tone was solemn, "The Japanese ambassador to the Republic of China, Michihiko Kunihiro, has just left me, and he has expressed concern about the relationship between your company and Hagiwara Mould Co., Ltd....... Xiaolin, if this matter can be private. Then it's private. ”
Bao Junyu's pressure is indeed very great, the Japanese embassy ambassador to the Republic personally came to visit him, and the focus of the conversation was the dispute between Japan's Ogiwara Mould Co., Ltd. and the Republic of Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., a fool can understand the meaning of this, let alone Bao Junyu, who has done diplomatic work for many years? Adhering to the principle of "diplomacy is no trivial matter", as soon as Guoguang Michihiko left, Bao Junyu called Lin Hongfei, hoping to persuade Lin Hongfei to keep the matter private...... That is, Lin Hongfei and Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., replaced by other companies, where is it so troublesome?
"Private?"
Lin Hongfei smiled. He knew that Bao Junyu was certainly worried about Sino-Japanese relations, but the most important thing was that he was worried that he would not be able to win this lawsuit, and whether Sino-Japanese relations would be affected by this...... Are you kidding?! After so many years of reform and opening up, the capitalists of the whole world are now aware of the advantages of investing and setting up factories in the Republic. Affect the overall situation of economic exchanges between the two countries because of one company? Can you tell a funnier joke than this?
After laughing, Lin Hongfei said to Bao Junyu with confidence. "Minister Bao. You can rest assured that this incident is a serious breach of the contract between the two parties by the Japanese side Hagiwara Mould Co., Ltd., and after being found to have breached the contract, it has a bad attitude and refuses to admit it...... I think this lawsuit is very representative, and with the gradual development and growth of enterprises in our country, it is inevitable that cooperation and exchanges with foreign companies will be strengthened. I think we're doing it this time. It will have a certain reference significance for similar trade disputes in the future. ”
There is no need for Lin Hongfei to say the following, Bao Junyu also understands what Lin Hongfei means next: while cooperation and exchanges are strengthened, disputes and frictions will also appear frequently, and this time Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. was wronged. And what about the future? All the companies that have had contract disputes and other commercial disputes with foreign companies, all of them will be beaten down regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one? That can't be done, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs may be pointed at the nose and scolded as a traitor. And Lin Hongfei is right, this lawsuit is very meaningful for similar situations in the future...... At least everyone can know that after we have a dispute with foreigners, we can not only fight a lawsuit with them, but also win it!
That's enough!
"Good!"
Thinking of the positive significance of this, the role that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs may play in it, and the political achievements it brings, Bao Junyu was suddenly shocked: This is in line with the old man's theory of "crossing the river by feeling the stones", is there anything more "crossing the river by feeling the stones" than this? He immediately decided, "Xiaolin, what should you do, you just do it, the ministry fully supports your company's behavior of safeguarding the legitimate interests of your company, and I will immediately report this situation to the minister and the party committee of the ministry...... By the way, would you like me to introduce you to a few barristers? ”
After all, this is a relatively representative international trade dispute in the Republic, and Bao Junyu believes that it is necessary to attach great importance to it, and it is still necessary to invite a few well-known domestic lawyers.
"Xie Lu, Minister Bao, your kindness," to Bao Junyu's surprise, his request was rejected by Lin Hongfei, and Lin Hongfei was only allowed to accept it, "We have lightened the Skadden Law Firm in New York, USA, to help us deal with this international trade dispute, this Skadden Law Firm is a law firm that specializes in handling international commercial and trade disputes, and is very professional in this field." ”
"It's called...... Well, is Skadden's law firm famous? Bao Junyu hesitated for a moment, but still asked.
Although it is said that a foreign monk can recite scriptures, will this foreign monk be a stammer?
"Very famous, they are known as one of the most successful law firms on Wall Street, with more than 2,000 employees and a turnover of more than $2.1 billion last year," Lin Hongfei said, listening to the deputy foreign minister who didn't seem to feel too strange, thought about it, and simply changed his perspective, "Minister Bao, you know, many politicians in the United States are born as lawyers, and the same is true of this Skadden Law Firm with a history of more than 40 years. Since its establishment, Skadden Law Firm has produced a deputy secretary of state, a deputy secretary of finance, at least 20 or 30 members of Congress and at least 100 state legislators. ”
"......" Bao Junyu was suddenly shocked by Lin Hongfei's words and was almost speechless: Lin Hongfei, you bastard, this Star Law Firm has such a big background? You said it earlier! Can a super-large law firm with billions of dollars in annual turnover that has produced deputy secretaries of state, deputy secretaries of the treasury, members of Congress, and even state legislators have little influence in politics?
He cautiously asked, "So, can you win this lawsuit?" ”
"Yes, we can definitely win! In the United States, in order to make money, those damn lawyers can say black and white, and white can also say black as black, I told them that I will not pay them a penny of commission, but if they can help us win the lawsuit, after removing the in-kind compensation given to us by Ogiwara Mould Co., Ltd., they can take eighty percent of the cash compensation, and give us the remaining twenty percent, which is a rare good condition, and I can't think of any reason why Skadden does not work hard. ”
Bao Junyu has heard of the notoriety of American lawyers, just like Lin Hongfei said, for the sake of money, they really do everything, saying that black is white, and white is black is just the basic skill of American lawyers, there is such a famous saying in the American legal circles: If you aspire to become a lawyer, the first thing you have to do is to take out your conscience and feed it to the dogs. There is no doubt that this time the Japanese encountered the most successful law firm in the United States, which specialized in international trade, and they were unlucky!
It's funny to say that the Japanese are not afraid of the Chinese, but they are afraid of the Americans, and the contradictory character of the people of this country is completely revealed at this moment.
It's just that when he thought that eighty percent of the compensation would be taken away by the Americans, Bao Junyu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, "Eighty percent let the Americans take it?" Wouldn't that be too much? ”
"No way," Lin Hongfei of course wouldn't say that in fact, Shida took 6 percent, and 2 percent went to Li. Iacocca, in exchange for Chrysler Motors' solidarity in this matter, he spread his hands, his face was full of helplessness, "At least we can still lose 20%, at least three or four million US dollars, and the matter is estimated to be resolved within a month, if we don't find this kind of internationally famous barrister, our lawsuit with Hagiwara Mould Co., Ltd. can drag on for at least three or four years...... In the end, we may not be able to win, and even if we can win, the compensation we can get may not be more than these two percent. ”
As soon as Lin Hongfei said this, Bao Junyu had nothing to say, Lin Hongfei was telling the truth...... Nima! That's the damn national situation!

So for Skadden Law Firm, whose annual turnover exceeded $2.1 billion for the first time in history, a lawsuit that may have made a profit of more than $10 million is definitely a big business, and they attach great importance to this business.
What is even more rare is that after analyzing the information sent by the Chinese, they were surprised to find that this long lawsuit is almost not difficult, and almost a casual kid who has just entered the industry can do it well.
Skadden's analysts, who couldn't figure out why the Japanese would do such a stupid thing, had to blame one thing for the reason: I heard that the Japanese were all living Lei Feng.
"All right, gentlemen, ladies," Elliot. Lawrence. Spitzer tapped the table under his ass, and the guy sitting at the table looked in high spirits, "Let's go to the Japanese ATM and withdraw the money!" (To be continued......)
