Chapter 237: An unprecedentedly large group of lawyers, starting the melee mode
As long as it is an enterprise, it must have its own weaknesses and weaknesses.
Whether it's SKF or Timken, or Aisin and Fanuc, who will be killed later.
Hearing Fang Sisi say this, combined with Zhou Yuan's analysis during this time, Cao Yang had a very bold plan in his heart.
This plan may not allow Nanshan to win the lawsuit, but there is a great hope to ensure that Nanshan will not fail.
As long as he doesn't lose the lawsuit, Cao Yang can accept it.
"Sisi, what you said gave me a very big idea."
Cao Yang's brain spun rapidly, thinking about his next move.
"Although SKF's previous antitrust investigation has ended, it is difficult to guarantee that they have not violated the antitrust law since then."
"Especially this time, they joined forces with Timken and other bearing manufacturers to launch an anti-dumping investigation against Nanshan, and the motive behind it is even more suspicious."
"We can continue to collect evidence and push the U.S. judicial authorities to launch antitrust investigations against SKF and other bearing manufacturers again."
"Other manufacturers who are ready to jump out, we can also adopt a similar plan to promote."
As soon as Cao Yang said this, Zhou Yuan, who was sitting in the front row, couldn't help but join in the chat.
"Mr. Cao, the judicial authorities in the United States may not cooperate with us in advancing the anti-monopoly investigation."
Although Zhou Yuan also very much hopes that Nanshan can win the lawsuit, she feels that Cao Yang's plan is not particularly feasible.
This is America.
"If the antitrust investigation fails, then sue them for patent infringement!"
"In the past two years, we have registered a lot of patents, and we can always find some places where the other party may infringe our patents."
"When the time comes, anti-dumping investigations, anti-monopoly investigations, and patent infringement cases, all of them will be brought together, and the melee mode will be directly started, depending on whether those companies have so much determination to fight me!"
As soon as Cao Yang said this, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but gasp.
This plan, although it may seem brainless, is completely feasible.
The point is that it's too expensive!
Under normal circumstances, no company in Huaxia would use this trick at all.
Not to mention ordinary private enterprises, such a large-scale lawsuit cannot be handled without tens of millions of dollars, or even hundreds of millions of dollars.
As for state-owned enterprises, it is even more unlikely that they will spend so much money to fight a lawsuit that they may not necessarily win.
It is also an enterprise like Nanshan that has mastered the core technology, the scale has come up, and the profit margin is also good, so it can withstand such a toss.
"Mr. Cao, if you really want to do this, if there are other companies involved in it later, then the final expenses are likely to go to hundreds of millions of yuan."
Zhou Yuan felt that she had an obligation to remind Cao Yang.
Otherwise, halfway through the lawsuit, the money will not be enough, and it will be called depressing.
"The cost of a lawsuit in the United States is indeed quite high, and I have also consulted my colleagues and classmates there during this time."
"For this case, their suggestion is to seek an out-of-court settlement."
"Otherwise, the price will probably be even higher."
Fang Sisi was also a little worried that Cao Yang was too strong at this time.
At that time, they are busy fighting lawsuits every day, delaying the development of the enterprise, and the gains outweigh the losses.
The most important thing is the hundreds of millions of litigation fees that Zhou Yuan said, which is too exaggerated.
She felt a little unworthy.
"Only one punch can block a hundred punches."
"If we want to develop in Nanshan, we will inevitably seize market share with other manufacturers."
"In the past, many competitors have used various methods to deal with us, and now SKF is using the WTO's anti-dumping investigation to deal with us."
"There are still many opponents in the back who have clenched their fists and are really going to rush over."
"At this time, Nanshan must not admit it."
"Even if the cost is relatively high, the time is relatively long, and it is not worth it from the perspective of benefits, we must stick to it."
"As long as we survive this hurdle, other opponents will naturally have a very direct understanding of our strong will to counter-suit in the future."
"In the future, I won't always think of using similar means to deal with Nanshan."
As soon as Cao Yang said this, Zhou Yuan and the others had no way to refute it.
The truth is indeed this truth, but the price is a bit big.
"Mr. Cao, this kind of anti-dumping investigation, anti-monopoly investigation, patent litigation and other cases are put together, and it may not be possible to win the anti-dumping case in the end."
"At most, after pulling the opponent into the water, everyone is uncomfortable and forcing them to withdraw the lawsuit."
Although Zhou Yuan knew that Cao Yang's will was very firm, sometimes, it was not because he was strong enough to win the lawsuit.
"It doesn't matter, winning the lawsuit is the means, and our purpose is to use this matter to make competitors give up all kinds of messy means against us in the future."
"Our purpose is to let everyone know that Nanshan is not easy to mess with, and Nanshan is not afraid of lawsuits!"
"Don't say it's hundreds of millions of yuan, it's hundreds of millions of dollars, and we will accompany you to the end!"
"It depends on whether their determination is as firm as ours!"
Cao Yang's categorical words can be regarded as a complete unification of the team's understanding.
Zhang Xiucai, who was next to him, also secretly made up his mind in his heart that he would compete with Nanshan in the future, and he should not think of some ideas that he shouldn't have.
So as not to get into trouble when you get it.
……
SKF CEO Tom Johnston flew from Europe to the United States today to personally follow up on the anti-dumping investigation of Nanshan Bearing.
"You mean that Nanshan is looking for a law firm to cooperate with in the United States this time, and has set up a response team of more than 100 people?"
As soon as Johnston got off the plane, he heard bad news from Ovid.
Although there are not more lawsuits than anyone.
But this battle made by Nanshan obviously does not intend to compromise.
In this way, what SKF wanted to do easily may not be so simple.
"Yes, the key is that our lawyers have not only recruited lawyers who are good at fighting anti-dumping cases to join the team, but also invited lawyers who are proficient in antitrust and patent litigation to join the team."
"It is rumored that Nanshan will set up a huge team of lawyers with a scale of more than 200 people to deal with anti-dumping investigations such as bearings and the gearboxes and robots that follow."
Ovid said this, and Johnston couldn't help but frown.
This thing seems to be a bit off its own script.
I thought I had found the other party's life, but I didn't expect there to be a thorn there!
