The strategy of the head of the legal department can not only be applied to this matter, in fact, it can be used in the face of many problems, if this idea is placed in the world of Du Lin's dream, it can be described in four words, it is called "encircling Wei to save Zhao". Of course, the people and wisdom here can't condense the idea of writing a paper in a simple word or two.

Whether it is proved that the patent in Du Lin's hand is illegal, or that he has violated the Anti-Monopoly Law and the Anti-Industry Manipulation Act, the final result is the same, Du Lin's business service patents related to insurance business will be invalid, and the industry labeling and access system applied by the two major banks can continue to be enforced. Not only will Doolin lose his patents, but he will also be confined forever, and he will never be able to enter the industry.

The Imperial Central Bank has disgusted others countless times, and this time it was finally disgusted by others.

The executive director nodded, withdrew his gaze, he looked at the other directors, and said calmly, "We can't focus all our attention on dealing with Doolin's prosecution and counterclaims, this is definitely an unreliable option, we will take more risks, so I have another idea." As he said this, he looked at the two executive directors and other directors sitting next to him, and everyone made the same judgment through their eyes and subtle expressions, and then he continued, "We need to continue to contact Durin, although he has this patent, it does not mean that he can swallow the whole market alone." ”

"Gentlemen, this is a market of 240 million people, and even if only 10 percent of them are involved in this business, it is not something that Dührin can do alone, which provides the necessary conditions for our future cooperation. ”

He made a direct decision, "The legal department immediately began to prepare materials to try to defeat him in court, and I need the public relations department to set up an emergency team to try to contact Dulin and try to get the patent licensing from him......"

The chairman of the board of directors has made a number of arrangements, including asking some members who have a certain amount of social influence and connections to contact those big names who can relate to these things, to see if they can continue to carry forward the wise saying that "the decisive victory is always outside the courtroom". Top-down administrative intervention is always easier than litigation, because there is something called "policy" that can often change the landscape of a certain business field.

At this time, it also reflects the terrifying network of interpersonal relationships of the Imperial Central Bank, and behind each director represents a huge network of relationships, radiating to all levels of society. From cabinet members to thugs who secretly sell grimace mushrooms in the alleys of some city, these people have a way to reach them.

Why are capitalists often robbed by banks and unwilling to offend them?

It is because they themselves are in this huge network, and they will never know what this means if they don't know the details of the bank, which is precisely the main reason why Maggs is very vigilant and has been pressing hard for the Imperial Central Bank step by step. As a last resort, he gave these businessmen a chance, and these businessmen immediately turned into bankers, seized the once-in-a-millennium opportunity, and created a monster in the history of finance. It's not so easy to turn the monster back into a pet dog or stuff it back in a cage now, unless there's a civil war to do so.

The cost and outcome of starting a civil war cannot be borne by anyone, not even Maggs, so the two sides can only compete in secret in a very peaceful way.

This is a very special ad hoc meeting, and it is just the opportunity for the Board of Directors to disclose its financial results for the first half of the year.

A lot of ordinary people think that banks are just banks, and they have nothing to do with anything other than money, but this is actually a very wrong idea, although it is very popular among ordinary people.

The banking industry is just a conceptual term, but in fact the work of banks is all-encompassing, among which the main ways to profit are loans, short-term loans and long-term investments. The former is well understood, short-term lending refers to when an enterprise encounters an unprepared, unplanned financial risk, in order to improve the ability to resist risks or have a sufficient amount of funds to tide over the current difficulties before the settlement date, they can propose short-term lending to the bank, borrowing itself is also a kind of loan behavior, short-term loans, often between three days and half a month, the interest is much higher than the interest of other loan projects.

The interest rate on short-term loans from the Imperial Central Bank is about 2 percent, and this interest is not calculated on a monthly basis, but on a daily basis. This business looks like a robbery, but in fact it is indeed a kind of business of a bank to rob a business, and in three or five days or a week, in addition to repaying the principal, you have to pay at least 10 percent interest, which is definitely enough to be a robbery, and it is more scary than the loan sharks in some small places.

So why not take out a loan?

The interest rate of the loan is lower, and the time you can work on it is more, so it seems to be more cost-effective.

However, the problem is that the process of issuing loans by banks is too long, especially if the loan business involves a higher risk, and the bank will often prepare an investigation team to find out whether the enterprise can have the corresponding collateral and the subsequent repayment ability, and finally decide whether to take out the loan. Many businesses cannot afford such a long period of time, or even have the ability to take out loans, and they can only choose to be legally robbed by the bank.

Of course, this involves another problem, how to ensure that the money will not become a bad debt in short-term lending, there are many ways for banks to do this, the most common is like Belito's bureau to the western insurance company, the money is always in the bank, and cash withdrawals are not allowed without permission, the bank will pay close attention to the money, and when the bank thinks that there is an unplanned risk, they will take the initiative to freeze the funds to ensure that their interests will not be damaged. As for whether other people's interests will be affected as a result, it has nothing to do with the bank.

As for the rest, it is investment, buying a large area of a farm is the favorite investment method of the bank, there is almost no risk and these properties are promoted every year, and many international hedge funds have invested a lot of money in this area to buy farms and ranches.

When the first half of the financial report is over, today's board of directors is basically over

The executive director dismissed the meeting, leaving the two ministers of the public relations department.

"Doolin's matter is very important, if you have other PR tasks in your hands in the near future and hand them over to someone else to do, I need you to talk to Doolin personally. The executive director flicked the cigarette ash in his hand and looked at the two PR ministers standing beside him.

These two public relations directors are women, and they are very beautiful, and with their temperament in high positions for a long time, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to ignore their existence.

Some people know how to use their advantages to go further in the shopping mall, of course, there are many people who are pretentious and unwilling to take shortcuts to the end, it is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong, in this complex society, in fact, to survive, and at least let yourself feel that you have survived well is already very remarkable.

Relying on these two ministers, the Imperial Central Bank has overcome many difficulties, and women have a unique advantage in this regard.

They are twins, and this advantage is magnified.

"What kind of strategy do we need to develop to talk to Doolin?", said the older sister, who wears earrings on different ears during their work to distinguish the two sisters.

The old man wrapped his mouth, he didn't have this kind of action when he was young, he wrapped his mouth when he encountered a problem, maybe people will do it when they are old, "I'm not sure what strategy to use to capture Durin, this needs to be grasped by you." Whether it's tough or weak, whether it's money or whatever, it's up to you. I can issue you the highest authority, and you can mobilize most of our resources, but let me warn you, money is of no use to him!"

Durin already had a lot of money, so much that he probably didn't feel anything about it, and the old man felt it very much. For him, the concept and meaning of money have been blurred to the maximum, and he has not even cared about how much balance he has in his account for more than ten years, nor how much dividends he can receive every year. For those who are poor, what may be the whole family has become the least important thing when it comes to a certain level.

He glanced at the two girls again and lowered his voice, "If you can convince Durin to give up the patent, even if it's just a part, you will live in the most wonderful place for the rest of your life, do you know what I mean?", he emphasized, "What I need is not his authorization, but a part of the ownership of this patent that he transfers, you can understand what I am, right?!"

The two sisters nodded, and the old man waved his hand, "During this time, you can concentrate on this matter, you don't need to worry about other problems, and you can show our sincerity to Du Lin when necessary." ”

After the two sisters left, the old man shook his head, it was not safe at all to get the authorization, once Doolin decided to withdraw the authorization - of course, all in the case of their counterclaim invalid, then the profits and benefits they had obtained in obtaining the authorization and working hard to operate would eventually be cheapened by Durin, which he could not tolerate, and the real core of the council, these directors would not agree.

Only after obtaining a certain percentage of patent rights can this situation be prevented, which is also a big problem that needs to be solved next.

Is Dühring willing to divide a part of it and transfer it to the Reichsbank, and how much is he willing to divide it?

Everything is unknown!

The next morning, while Durin was watching Adams' team in his villa in Oak Cove work out the trial, Kevin walked in through the door on crutches and shrugged, "One bad news or one good news, gentlemen, which one do you want to hear first?"

Everyone else looked at Dorin, who rubbed his temples, "I hope your bad news isn't too bad, let's start with the news that we all hate." ”

Kevin took out two summons from the bag he was carrying and threw them on the table, "The Imperial Bank filed two indictments in the Supreme Court of the Empire this morning, suing the Patent Office for illegally providing you with a patent certificate, and also suing you for violating the Antitrust Law and the Anti-Industry Manipulation Act. ”

Durin scoffed, which he expected, and if the Imperial Bank did nothing it was news, "And what about the good news?"

"The good news is that their actions have angered the Justice Department. Kevin walked over to the bar and poured himself a drink, then sat down beside Dorin, "The Supreme Governor of the Ministry of Justice was a little angry this morning, and I can see that he is annoyed, and he has taken the Ministry of Justice to court with him in the prosecution of the Imperial Bank against the Patent Office. ”

"So?"

"So the justice system is more inclined to us to win the lawsuit, and although they don't obviously help us, they can make it easier for us to do some small things. ”

After Kevin finished speaking, Adams nodded clearly, "If that's the case, our court defense strategy needs to be modified." ”

According to the laws of the Empire, the Chief Justice for Life should be absolutely neutral, and even no longer belong to the judicial system, but the question is that when an old man has worked in the system all his life, and has won the highest honor of the system in old age, is it possible for him to completely dissociate himself from the system? The answer is no, in any case he will have a special affection for this system. He may not be able to talk nonsense with his eyes open, but it is possible to provide some small, insignificant conveniences, but these conveniences are enough to make a huge difference in the outcome of a court argument.

In court, some highly offensive and misleading inquiries are not allowed, including some issues that may involve sensitive issues or even point-to-the-point, which will be protested and opposed by the lawyer of the other party. At this time, if the judge maintains a neutral position, he will approve the protest and the objection and consider it valid. But if the judge is not so neutral...... Some things that can't be said, some questions that can't be asked, can be asked in a grand manner.

This was enough to change the final decision of the jury, so it was great news for rogue lawyers like Adams, who had plenty of confidence to cheat...... No, it's convincing the jury that they are the one who does justice!

"Of course, there's also good news about you personally. Kevin smiled weirdly as he looked at Durin......
