Chapter 338: Old Foxes

The lawyer named Noel smiled slightly and said, "A large amount of 500 million US dollars, written in black and white, once you get to the court, you will not be able to pay a penny, but I can find a way to help you save one or two hundred million US dollars." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"It's enough to save one or two hundred million, what should we do next?" Omi's uncle asked.

"If Zhang Guan really wins this year's F1 championship, then you have to pay the bills and don't give him money." Noel spoke.

"But in that case, he'll sue us." Old Maria spoke.

"Then let him sue, once the litigation process is entered, we will first ask for a settlement, and my lawyer can first propose a settlement agreement, such as a settlement for $200 million." Noel said with a smile.

"Three hundred million dollars? This time it was reduced by 200 million, which was nearly half, how could Zhang Guan agree? Old Mariya shook her head.

"Of course he won't say yes, but I'll have a way to force him to say yes. Don't forget, when the news of the $500 million gambling contract appeared today, if Zhang Guan did not respond positively, then it also means that he did not positively admit the existence of this gambling contract, which can be used as a basis, and with this, I am sure that I can have a relationship with him for more than a dozen times. Noel spoke.

"Lawsuits? Can you win? Old Maria asked with a little weakness.

"Of course you can't win! With the contract in hand, how can we win? But I can drag. Noel continued: "This lawsuit, I estimate that the first instance can be dragged on for eleven or twelve courts, and then we can appeal, and the second instance will drag on for another seven or eight courts, even if we lose, we can still appeal again, until the final trial." It is estimated that the selection of judges alone is a very long moment, and we can also ask for jurors, ask for a change of judge, and ask for a change of jurors, I estimate that a lawsuit with such a large amount of litigation will not be a problem for seven or eight years. ”

"Even if it drags on for seven or eight years, we will still lose, and we will still give him 500 million dollars by then." Old Maria said anxiously.

"You're right, but how much will 500 million dollars be worth in seven or eight years? At the rate of inflation, in seven or eight years, the purchasing power of 500 million US dollars will be halved, right? Even if we don't calculate inflation, find a financial expert and give him $500 million, maybe it can be doubled in four or five years, do you think that's the truth? Noel asked with a smile.

"That's right." Old Maria nodded.

"So in the process of litigation, I want Zhang Guan to understand this truth, if he agrees to settle and accept 300 million US dollars, he will only lose 200 million US dollars, if he wants to go to court, he will not be able to get 500 million US dollars until seven or eight years later, and the 500 million US dollars at that time are far less valuable than the current 300 million US dollars, and he will lose more. Of course, in the process of negotiation, we can also increase the price appropriately, which depends on his psychological bottom line. Noel smiled and said: "Of course, if he doesn't accept the reconciliation, then wait until seven or eight years later, give him another 500 million US dollars, and I will postpone it for seven or eight years, which should also be a very favorable ending for your Mariya family!" ”

Old Maria immediately agreed. Even if you only eat interest on 500 million US dollars, you can save a lot in seven or eight years. And for businessmen, their money is used to make money, and 500 million US dollars are invested, and quadrupling in eight years is not a fool's dream.

Lawyer Noel continued: "The key to all of this is time, and I need to have enough arguments to support my procrastination, which is that I need to have some contradictions, the more the better, and if not, then create some." And if the arguments are insufficient, the lawsuit will be over after three or five sessions, and we will not be able to get out of it for so long, and there is no possibility of seeking an out-of-court settlement. ”

……

"If they have the best arguments to drag on for a long time, then your actual loss may be much higher. If you understand this, will you accept the settlement? If I were your lawyer, I might have persuaded you to accept the settlement. You must know that for a good lawyer, whether he can win the case or not is only secondary, the key is to help his client obtain greater benefits. Ross Brown said with a laugh.

What Ross-Brown explains is exactly the same approach used by Noel's lawyers. After listening, Zhang Guan's expression suddenly became serious. In Zhang Guan's memory, the next few years will be the moment of quantitative easing in various countries, to put it bluntly, it is to increase the horsepower to start the money printing machine, the dollar, the euro, the pound, the yen, and what we have in our pockets, it can be said that the world's major currencies are printed more and more, the only difference is that the printing is more ruthless and the printing is more ruthless.

Money is definitely becoming less and less valuable, especially this kind of large amount of money, five years earlier in the hands and five years later in the hands are completely different concepts, if the Mariya family really delays, no matter what, it is always Zhang Guan who suffers.

"I can't believe that there is such an insidious method! Doesn't that mean that as long as you owe money to others, you can use this method to repay your debts? After a few years of lawsuits, and then you can repay the money less, wouldn't it become a big injustice to lend money to others? On the contrary, I have to lose money, and it is still under the legal framework, which is too unfair! Zhang Guan said a little angrily.

"Actually, I can't say that, your situation is quite special. If ordinary people only owe 1.8 million yuan, their money is not enough to hire a barrister to litigate! Ross Brown spread his hands and continued: "And under normal circumstances, borrowing money is collateralized, real estate, cars, stocks and securities, etc., the price of the collateral will definitely exceed the amount of the loan, you want to take 1 million, without 1.2 million collateral, who will lend you?" Where would there be a mortgage like yours, and there is no such a large amount of $500 million as a single contract. Moreover, the collateral has some benign assets that can appreciate in value, and if the mortgagee does not repay the money, it will lose more. ”

Ross Brown really talks about this stuff. In fact, in addition to racing engineers, Ross Brown's other identity is an investment guru, he has hundreds of millions of pounds in assets, and with his racing engineer's salary, he obviously can't earn so much, his assets mainly come from his investment income. With Ross Brown's business acumen, even if he is not a racing engineer, many large companies have asked him to be the CEO, and it can be said that in terms of business, Ross Brown is better than Zhang Guan, I don't know how many times.

"So what do you think I can do right now?" Zhang Guan asked.

"Don't tell the truth to the Mariya family, the rest have to ask a lawyer, don't we have a legal adviser for the team, you are the boss, your business is the team's business, go to the legal counsel, they won't charge you more." Ross Brown said cheerfully. (To be continued.) )
