Chapter 121: A lawyer's letter arrives unexpectedly
Two more days passed, and it was Wednesday.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Zhou Liang entered the township chief's office.
Recently, Zhou Liang basically came over once a day or two, but the time was either just going to work in the morning or about to get off work in the afternoon, and he usually asked for instructions or reported routinely. If it's not these two points in time, it's a temporary event that needs to be reported.
Seeing that the other party came over at this point in time, Li Xiaohe asked directly: "Director Zhou, is there something wrong?" ”
Looking around the house, Zhou Liang asked, "Township Chief, there is no one else in this house, right?" ”
What do you mean? Despite his doubts, Li Xiaohe did not question, but answered truthfully: "Only the two of us." ”
Zhou Liang came closer, opened the file bag, and took out a piece of paper from it: "Township Chief, take a look at this." ”
Li Xiaohe took a piece of paper, saw the title on it, and couldn't help but be stunned, and then looked at the content inside, and was even more shocked. He tried his best to control his fast-beating heart, but he also tried to keep his face calm, his eyes fixed on the paper. After a while, his mind calmed down a lot, and he put down the paper and asked in a gentle tone, "When did you come?" Who picked it up? ”
Zhou Liang immediately replied: "I just received it, so I sent it directly to the township chief." At that time, there was no one else around, no one saw it on the road, and no one asked. ”
Li Xiaohe nodded: "Okay, very good." Was it an automatic fax, or was someone contacted in advance? ”
"Before sending the fax, the other party called and said that we should take a fax, and said that the original would be sent immediately, and without waiting for me to ask too much, I sent it directly. After I got the fax, I felt that the content was important, and I was worried that others would see it, so I didn't call back to ask, but sent it straight to the township chief. If I need to ask, I'll call right away. Stopping talking, Zhou Liang waited for the township chief to show him.
Li Xiaohe smiled: "Director Zhou, you did a very good job, thank you!" Pay attention to the incoming items at any time these days, and send them directly to me after receiving them, don't ask the other party for the time being. ”
"Township Chief, this is what I should do." Zhou Liang nodded in agreement, "I promise not to let a third party get it, in addition to reporting to you, I also promise not to tell a third party about this matter." ”
"Okay, let's get busy." Li Xiaohe smiled and waved his hand.
Zhou Liang replied and left the township chief's office.
The smile quickly faded, Li Xiaohe's face was cloudy, and his brows were twisted into a pimple. After finishing the inspection of the provincial capital, Li Xiaohe also thought about this, but the thought was only fleeting, and he quickly denied it, he felt that it was impossible. Who would have thought that the impossible would be a reality now, so what could be done?
After thinking for a while, Li Xiaohe picked up the phone and dialed out. As soon as the phone rang, he asked directly: "Are you not in the unit?"
The other party replied: "Yes, I was about to go out to the village to have a look." ”
"Don't go out yet, come to my office." After speaking, Li Xiaohe hung up the phone.
Soon, there was a sound of footsteps, and Qin Mingsheng knocked on the door and walked in.
"Close the door and show you something." Li Xiaohe disappeared and gestured.
Qin Mingsheng turned around and pushed the door again, and walked quickly to the desk.
"Give." Li Xiaohe flipped up the paper and handed it over, "Take a look, the lawyer's letter came unexpectedly." ”
"Lawyer's letter?" Qin Mingsheng took the paper suspiciously, saw the content on it, and exclaimed: "Ah, how can this be? ”
Li Xiaohe reprimanded: "Look at it first, and then talk slowly after reading it." ”
Qin Mingsheng frowned, and sat on the chair while staring at the words on the paper. As he watched the content, his hands trembled slightly, and the muscles on his face trembled from time to time.
After reading all the content, Qin Mingsheng's face became even more ugly, and he asked weakly: "Township Chief, what should I do?" ”
Li Xiaohe did not reply, but asked a question: "What do you think about this?" ”
"What do I think? My brain is messed up now, I can't figure out anything, why didn't I ......" Halfway through complaining, Qin Mingsheng raised his voice and scolded, "Big liar, bastard, the woman surnamed Zhong is a big liar, those two bastards are liars." ”
Li Xiaohe waved his hand: "Old Qin, don't be so emotional first, this won't solve the problem." From now on, Zhong Wanying and Shi Zhao are liars, and there is nothing to doubt about it. Now the key issue is not to complain or scold, but to think about what we should do. ”
"Huhu" took a few breaths, Qin Mingsheng still gritted his teeth: "A few days ago, I just thought that those two guys were not well-intentioned, and they must have deceived us, but I haven't figured out how to deceive." Even when I saw the pictures sent by Lawyer Song, I just thought that those two guys bought our products to Jinzu Shenghui Company, and Jinzu Shenghui Company copied our products, and then took them out and sold them secretly. I didn't expect it to be like this, they are too vicious, are they still human? Now this company has sent a lawyer's letter, asking us not to produce the products they have registered, otherwise it will be treated as infringement and counterfeiting.
I think we can go to the relevant department, show us the insoles we produce, and tell the whole process of contact with those two big liars. Although this company has registered the relevant products, including the process and those patterns, after all, it is imitation and counterfeit, and the relevant authorities should also take this fact into account, or should revoke the relevant registration that has been made. Taking a step back, even if we can't do it, don't let them produce it, otherwise it won't make sense. ”
Li Xiaohe said slowly: "I don't want to cancel this registration, but is it possible?" Now that they have been registered, they must have provided all the required formalities and there is no conflict with the registered product. In a legal sense, they are completely the first copies of the same product, which are recognized and protected by law. In addition to the products in our hands, we do not have any evidence that can prove our claim, such as the contract for the sale of the relevant goods, such as the photocopy of the product attached to the contract, such as the recording in our favor, such as the relationship between the two and Jinzu.
I think even if there are these things, even if the people in charge approve of them emotionally, it is the law, and it speaks according to procedures and procedures. We are only the last to come, and there is no legal basis for canceling that registration. What's more, we don't have these things at all, and we can't provide them at all. So, we don't have much room to maneuver in this regard, and we can't afford to toss at all. Of course, I will definitely tell Lao Song about this, but I can only ask him to help analyze it, find out all the lessons, and try to avoid similar situations in the future.
A few days ago, we were still thinking about finding another partner, but now it seems that this path will not work for the time being, so don't contact them for now. I had a preliminary understanding that the villagers have at least more than 5,000 pairs of finished products in their hands, and they continue to produce them every day. Do you want to produce it? How do we explain it to the villagers, and when? That's the priority. Other ideas are unrealistic and a waste of time. ”
Qin Mingsheng muttered: "Yes, how to explain it?" That's thousands of pairs, and it will be over 10,000 in a month or two. So many rural women have no day or night, making cushions one by one, and stitch by stitch, and stitch by stitch thorn pattern, tired by the boss. Although they are very tired, people have a mind, sell money to supplement their families, and their hearts are full of hope. Now that hope has collapsed all at once, how can they accept this reality? ”
Feeling that the other party was really nagging, Li Xiaohe said in a deep voice: "Those producers are definitely not easy, there is no need to talk about this, just think about what to do." Strive to find a solution before they know the true appearance, sell the finished product in their hands, and it is best to think of what to do next. ”
"What to do? What can I do? Qin Mingsheng was still chattering, and then took out his mobile phone, "No, I have to call that girl and ask her why she is so vicious, and her conscience has been eaten by dogs?" ”
"What do you ask? People pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, and there are no relevant binding clauses. Besides, she will definitely not admit to her relationship with Jin Zu Shenghui. The phone may not get through. Li Xiaohe questioned.
"But we can't just let them cheat, is there any justice to this?" Qin Mingsheng drilled the tip of the bull's horns, "If there is any misunderstanding in the middle, it may not be possible." ”
I can see that if Qin Mingsheng is not allowed to make this call, he will have to make a call when he leaves here. In addition, Li Xiaohe also has a trace of luck: what if it is really an oolong, is it a misunderstanding? Thinking of this, he said: "It's okay to call, but you must promise me four conditions: first, pay attention to the tone and attitude, don't open your mouth to scold people, let alone say anything out of line, so as not to let people grab the handle and beat me again; Second, the question is still asked according to the original pattern, as if the lawyer's letter has not been received; 3. If she still shirks, she is required to give a definite date for reply; Fourth, under the circumstances of no choice, it is not too late to talk about the lawyer's letter. ”
"Okay." After nodding heavily, Qin Mingsheng dialed the number.
After the "......" ringback sound, there was no movement in the mobile phone, and after a while, a standard female voice came out, "The number you dialed is temporarily unreachable, please dial again later." ”
Qin Mingsheng dialed it again, this time there was no bell tone, but after it was quiet, the standard female voice sounded directly.
I dialed it seven or eight times, all with the same result, Qin Mingchang sighed, put away his mobile phone, and sat down in a chair dejectedly. He propped his elbows on the table, his hands in his hair, shook his head and sighed.
Seeing that the other party has messed up, he can't come up with any ideas at all, and he has no good way for the time being. So Li Xiaohe said: "Old Qin, go back first, and then think about it when you go back." ”
"Okay, go back." Decadent got up, Qin Mingsheng muttered and walked over, "Liar, big liar." ”
"Wait." Li Xiaohe left his seat, stepped forward, and stopped the other party, "Remember, don't mention it to anyone." Also, the mental state must be good, and the pretending must be decent, otherwise people will definitely find out the clues. Once this spreads, if the villagers know about it, it will be troublesome, and you and I will not be able to eat and leave. ”
Qin Mingsheng was stunned for a moment, and then nodded emphatically: "Okay, the mental state is better." As he spoke, he raised his hand and brushed his hair, held his head high, and walked out of the room.
