Chapter 131: First Encounter
Monday, January 7th.
Shirakawa Kaede buttoned the collar and straightened the tie again.
After checking the figure in the mirror again, there was nothing wrong with it, and then he lowered his hands and came out of the bathroom.
"Are you all ready?"
"Hmm" Asuka Kobayashi, who was waiting at the door, also had a serious expression.
"Then get ready to go." After Shirakawa Kaede finished speaking, he prepared to go downstairs.
"Wait"
"Huh?"
Asuka Kobayashi stepped forward and smoothed out the folds in his cuffs. Then he took a step back and looked at it before nodding with satisfaction.
"Come on!"
"Okay," Shirakawa Kaede smiled and nodded.
Downstairs, a team of lawyers from Hasegawa, Yasuda, Meiji University, and Shirakawa's own legal department were all waiting there with serious expressions.
Shirakawa Kaede walked downstairs and came to Muto Kiyoshi and the others first.
"Seniors, today's Shirakawa Electric is for you." After speaking, Shirakawa Kaede lowered his head and bowed seriously.
"You don't have to worry about what you do." Several law department bigwigs responded with serious expressions.
Bai Chuanfeng nodded, then stretched out his hand and gestured to the waiting car on the side, "Seniors, please." ”
Muto Kiyoshi and the others did not refuse, and got into the car one by one, sat down, and prepared to leave.
Shirakawa Kaede nodded at Yasuda again, and then sat in the first car in the front seat, followed by Asuka Kobayashi.
After all the personnel were in place, the car started and headed for the Sony Building in Shinagawa Ward.
…
Half an hour later, Shirakawa's vehicle arrived in front of the Sony Building on time.
At this moment, on the steps at the door, Heitaro Nakajima was waiting there with a solemn expression with a few reception staff.
Shirakawa Kaede, who got off the car first, was different from Heitaro Nakajima's solemn face, but he was full of smiles.
"Senior Brother Nakajima, thank you for your attention." Saying that, Shirakawa Kaede didn't even need the standard Japanese bow, but enthusiastically stretched out his hands.
"Eh" Nakajima Heitaro, who didn't understand what was going on, had already been caught by Shirakawa Kaede in his right hand under the strange gaze of his colleagues around him, and shook it vigorously.
"Senior brother, the cherry blossoms in Meiji will bloom in a while, when will we go back to enjoy the cherry blossoms together?"
Seeing that Shirakawa Kaede was still holding his hand, Heitaro Nakajima finally reacted.
He struggled hard, huh? Didn't break away.
Just as he was about to change color, Shirakawa Kaede quietly let go of his hand again.
"Shirakawa, thank you for your care. Brother, please! Saying that, Shirakawa Kaede bent down and stretched out his hand, motioning for him to lead the way.
After Heitaro Nakajima was dazed, surprised, and came back to his senses, he saw Shirakawa Kaede looking at him respectfully.
"Cough" Heitaro Nakajima coughed dryly, looked around and saw that everyone was waiting for him to make up his mind, and nodded subconsciously, "Shirakawa-san, please."
Heitaro Nakajima said politely, then turned around and led the way, walking towards the Sony Building first.
Shirakawa Kaede smiled, then got up to follow as well.
Since you are ready to make a move with your opponent, you must naturally check the details of the opponent.
Meiji's? Meiji's good wow, it's all senior brothers~
…
Sony Building, a spacious conference room. Shirakawa Kaede and his entourage followed Heitaro Nakajima and arrived here unimpeded all the way.
It is worthy of Sony, and this spacious and bright conference room with a sense of science and technology everywhere shows the style of a multinational company.
On the opposite side of the long conference table sat a middle-aged man with a wide forehead. At this moment, the other party is looking at this place with a serious face.
Shirakawa Kaede knew that the other party was the opponent he was going to make today, Kozo Osone, the head of Sony's stereo tape recorder division.
"Osone-san, long admired Daimyo."
"Shirakawa-san, really young and promising."
After a polite sentence from both sides, they sat down separately, and then looked at each other silently.
The other party is not in a hurry, and neither is Shirakawa Kaede.
He just wanted to see how Sony was going to set the tone for this today.
After another two minutes, the two sides in the meeting combined were close to twenty people, and there was not the slightest sound for a while, and the pin drop could be heard.
"Cough" Finally, in the opposing camp, a middle-aged man with gray hair who was sitting on the left hand side of Kozo Osone got up.
"Contemptible Hiroshi Suzuki, deputy director of Sony's legal department.
The reason why I invite you today is to hope that you will have a friendly communication about the infringement of Sony Walkman by a product named Flashman under the name of the company.
Sony is a serious and responsible company, and is very eager to have friendly technical exchanges with industry peers.
However, it is absolutely unforgivable for infringement without prior communication.
Please also ask for a reasonable explanation, otherwise Sony has the right to sue for any infringement that causes harm to you.
This includes, but is not limited to, apologies and damages. ”
The legal staff on the other side spoke in a large official manner as soon as they came up.
With that serious and serious expression, it seems that Shirakawa Electric has already confirmed the infringement, and is sitting in the dock waiting for trial at the moment.
Regarding Sony's "begging for thieves", Shirakawa Kaede didn't even bother to pay attention to it.
Since you want to play like this, you can't blame me for not talking about martial arts.
"Contemptible Muto Kiyoshi, consultant of the legal department of Shirakawa Electric.
I came to your place today because I hope that you will provide you with the product Walkman under your name. Without the authorization of Shirakawa Electric, the act of producing, selling and disseminating without permission is reasonably explained.
Although Shirakawa Electric is currently only rooted in local operations, it does not mean that it does not have the right to pursue international responsibility.
Please also give an appropriate explanation of the similar design of your Walkman.
This is a description of our Shirakawa Electric's patent application, which was first filed two years before your product was launched. ”
Saying that, Muto Kiyoshi pushed the patent description documents that had been prepared long ago to the other party.
"You...!" Hiroshi Suzuki of Sony's legal department was flushed with shamelessness from the other party, and he wanted to accuse when he stood up.
Kozo Osone raised his hand and stopped Hiroshi Suzuki from continuing to speak.
He straightened his arms and crossed his hands on the table, looking at Shirakawa Kaede with indifferent eyes.
"Shirakawa-san, you and I both know that in Neon Walkman is original.
And the market of Shirakawa Electric is also neon. Be sure to think about it as well. ”
Shirakawa Kaede's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at each other for a moment.
The two of them in the conference room were expressionless and their eyes were calm. The people around them stopped their eyes and focused their eyes on them.
Suddenly, Shirakawa Kaede smiled, "Sony, it's indeed an admirable existence.
However, since the day Shirakawa Electric was founded, it thought about the sea of swords and fires it would face in the future.
At this moment, Sony, just right. ”
"Okay" Kozo Osone also pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing an inexplicable smile.
"Shirakawa-san didn't disappoint the contemptible either, and the person who dared to challenge Sony hasn't met it for many years."
Shirakawa Kaede smiled, "Then, goodbye." ”
After saying that, Shirakawa Kaede immediately got up and left the office without looking back.
Kobayashi Asuka and Muto Kiyoshi also got up expressionlessly, and then left.
Looking at the back of Shirakawa Kaede and their departure, Hiroshi Suzuki of the Legal Department turned his head to look at Kozo Osone, "Osone-san, do we need to sue?" ”
Kozo Osone pondered for a few seconds, then shook his head. However, the next sentence made Suzuki Hiroshi feel a pang in his heart.
"Inform me and ventilate to all channel providers. Sony doesn't want the Walkman and Shirakawa Flashman to appear in the same store.
For large and medium-sized chain stores, try to negotiate as much as possible, as for small channel providers.
Choose one of the two, either Sony or Shirakawa. ”
After speaking, Yuki Osone left the conference room expressionlessly, if it weren't for the overseas market.
At this moment, the meeting with Shirakawa Electric is not here, but in the courtroom.
