"Mr. Doolin, I'm sorry to tell you that you've been sued!"

When Adams brought a court summons to Durin at half past eight in the morning, Durin was at a loss. He looked back at what he had done during this time, and it didn't seem to have been in conflict with anyone to the point of needing to be resolved in court. When he inexplicably held the ticket in his hand, he realized what was going on.

He was sued by the Imperial Night magazine for his attempt to use intimidation to interfere with press freedom, a high-ranking lawsuit. The "Colors of Empire" magazine believed that in order to achieve a certain goal, Du Lin had resorted to intimidation, threats, and other means to make some news unable to be published, which seriously damaged the physical and mental health of the reporters under the command of "The Color of Empire" magazine, and demanded that Du Lin publicly apologize on "The Color of Empire" and compensate the intimidated reporters for various expenses of 1,700 yuan.

Durin dropped the summons on the table and looked up at Adams standing in front of him, "Can we win this case?"

"Of course, sir, there is no doubt that we will win, ...... case like this," he smiled slightly, "with all due respect, they are purely trying to promote themselves by prosecuting you. As we all know, you have always been a very famous and prestigious person in public opinion, which will naturally lead some people to find ways to use you to gain more prestige without harming their own interests, and suing is obviously the easiest way. ”

"When the time comes, more journalists will report on you, and naturally they will also cover the Colors of the Empire magazine, thus achieving a kind of large-scale propaganda effect. When people start to wonder what kind of news company this magazine is, their sales will increase significantly!"

"If they win the case, their influence will expand quickly. If they lose, they won't have anything to lose. ”

Durin nodded, he was still a little unaccustomed to being disgusted by this kind of thing early in the morning, and he had planned to go back to the west tomorrow and not discuss the insurance business with Mags. When the western side couldn't take it, he would discuss the issue with Maggs in turn. It was indeed a tiresome thing that all the good mood had been ruined, and he casually asked, "Do I need to appear in court in person?"

"If you can sign a carte blanche to me, you don't have to appear in court. ”

This is actually a very ordinary small case, even the judges in the court know it well, and this is not the first time that "Night of the Empire" has done this. The first thing they did in the face of the condemnation of celebrities was not to think about how to resolve the dispute, but to find offensive words from the other party's remarks and file a lawsuit.

This backbite soon led to the rapid rise of Night of the Empire in the central and eastern parts of the empire, with millions of copies per issue coming from these two regions. It is worth mentioning that Illian alone sells more than 400,000 copies per issue, which may be obviously related to the eighth district that has been put into use.

Immediately after the completion of the 8th arrondissement, it became a mecca for filmmakers from inside and outside the empire, and the perfect artificial set was enough for the film crew to shoot at least a dozen different environments without leaving their homes in the 8th arrondissement. A large number of filmmakers gathered here, including many celebrities, who bought real estate and even other properties in Illian, making Ilian even more lively. Even the manor on the cliffs by the sea in Doolin has been favored more than once, and they want to pay money to buy it, even if it is at a premium of twenty percent.

Seeing that Durin was a little irritated, Adams continued, "Mr. Doolin, we can effectively defend against attacks from Imperial Nights, so do we need to fight back as well?"

This proposal intrigued Durin slightly, and he nodded, "They should indeed be taught a lesson!"

After Adams left, Durin found someone to find out why this was happening, and then learned that Seun had found the reporter, and he first asked the other party not to follow Frena, but it was obviously pointless. How could those journalists make their fortune and fame by betraying their morals and secretly taking pictures, so how could they give up their way of life and work because of a homeless man's obstruction? In such a situation, Xiun could only use some slightly more violent means, first beating the bastard, and then following him to his home.

It was a happy family, with two children and an elderly man in addition to the person and his wife, and the family had the power to live in an upscale neighborhood because of his excellent filming skills and selling out other people's privacy, enjoying everything that the middle class could enjoy. As long as the photos taken by this reporter are adopted, each one will receive a buyout fee of no less than 20 yuan, which is enough money for him and his family to live a happy and happy life.

In the evening, Seun found a wild cat, blurred the flesh and blood of the wild cat after falling to death, found a shoebox with a peculiar smell from the garbage can, and put the dead cat in it. I don't know if it's to reflect a more visually striking picture, he also tore a down pillow, filled with white feathers, surrounded the bloody dead cat, and then put a card on it - "When you hurt others, you will be hurt by others one day"

This worked very well, because it was his wife, and when his wife opened the box in front of the children, the whole person was not good, and the children were even more frightened and speechless, curled up under the table and hugged their heads and cried.

The journalist, who knew what had happened, immediately understood that this was Doolin's warning to him. Because he had never encountered anything like this before he received the almost open-minded task of secretly photographing Frena. "Empire Night" magazine has a law firm with good partnerships, and most of the things can be solved by a law firm, but this time is different.

This time it was obviously not a "regular" way, but a wild way, and as soon as I remembered that there were many rumors about Durin, the reporter reported the matter to the company. The company immediately made the decision that caught him a little off guard, that is, to sue Durin for intimidating and threatening the reporter of the "Imperial Night" magazine, and demanding a public apology and compensation of 1,700 yuan for various damages.

Of course, there are some things that Doolin doesn't know.

"We shouldn't have done this, it would have angered that Terror tycoon from Doolin!", one of the magazine's shareholders was very unhappy with what the magazine was doing now, and the decision was made without his knowledge. This made him very angry, and when Doolin decided to do something, they would be in big trouble, "Have you forgotten how the George family fell, do you want to repeat these disasters on us?"

Almost everyone who works in the newspaper or magazine knows who made the invincible George family a thing of the past, and the three feature agencies were burned to the ground, and the accumulation of decades was reduced to ashes in an instant.

Once Durin really wants to do something, he doesn't need to fight and kill, just let the magazine catch fire due to some accident, which is definitely the stupidest decision. Even if it is against Maggs, it is better than facing Durin.

The president of the magazine, who is also the editor-in-chief, shook his head with a smile in his hand, "Don't worry, the situation will not be bad to that extent, Dührin will win this lawsuit in the first court session, and then we will publicly apologize to Dührin in three consecutive issues of the magazine to express our deep apologies, and at the same time, we will compensate Mr. Dühring for a loss of reputation of 3,000 yuan." I believe that as long as Durin has no problem with his brain, he will not think of taking revenge on us by extreme means. ”

"And ......," the president and editor-in-chief smiled treacherously, "we can throw the journalist out if necessary, he provided everything we know, he deceived us and caused us to have some minor misunderstandings with Mr. Doolin, we are as innocent as Mr. Doolin, and the real guilty is the reporter, he wants to provoke a dispute between us and Doolin, and his intentions are very vicious!"

Without waiting for the unsuspecting shareholder to say anything, the president and editor-in-chief continued, "And you have to see not only the losses and the huge risks that we may receive, but also the benefits that we can expect." Our main markets now are the middle of the empire and the east coast, and according to the sales department, although our sales are increasing with each issue, we can no longer see the doubling of the heart attack that would scare you. ”

"Slow growth is already starting to limit our future, and what we need most now is to open up markets in the south and west of the empire, and as long as we can complete the sales of two million by the end of this year, even if we take some risks, it will be worth it. ”

"Think about it, when those people in the west find out that Doolin is in a lawsuit with us, what is the first thing they do?", he asked a question, but quickly answered himself, "that is, curiosity, curious about what kind of magazine we are, and why we have a dispute with Doolin." Out of curiosity about us, the best way for them to learn about us is to buy a copy of our magazine!"

"Including the southern cities of the empire, the markets that we have been unable to open will usher in an opportunity because of our bold move. As long as our magazine enters these two regions, and as long as we can maintain the quality of our magazine's content, I believe that the sales of two million copies of one issue by the end of the year will not be a problem at all, and it may even grow to two and a half million copies of one issue!"

"Gentlemen, this is indeed a risky attempt, but in the face of a huge promising market, I think it is worth it!"
