Chapter 481 Support from Rice Legal Services
Chapter 481 Support from Rice Legal Services
"Liu Lirong still has the nerve to play the victim. Does she know how Gionee declined?"
"That idiot lost over a billion gambling back then, completely ruining his financial chain. You laymen don't understand, but we insiders know it all too well."
#Gionee's staged accident transmission#
#Liu Lirong loses everything gambling at his company#
At the same time, Transsion also sent lawyer's letters to major newspapers and online bloggers, and some media outlets that maliciously defamed them even received lawsuits directly.
Yangcheng Evening News Editorial Office:
"Editor-in-Chief Li, we have received an urgent envelope."
"What kind of scoop can make tomorrow's front page? If not, then don't let me see it."
Before the door was even opened, a voice of rejection was heard.
After all, the unfair competition by Transsion made their newspaper very wealthy.
First, sales increased by 150% compared to yesterday, and then the number of followers on Weibo also increased by a full 7.
He just received a call from the chairman, who said he did a great job, getting paid and fooling the audience. He praised him for his excellent work!
So now he just wants to dig up information about the internal strife within these large corporations, since audiences like to see that.
But the young reporter didn't listen to him and pushed the door open directly, her face even showing a hint of coldness.
"It's not like it's your first day on the job, what's the rush?"
So Editor-in-Chief Li shouted at him loudly.
"Editor-in-Chief Li..." The young man became even more nervous after being reprimanded. "It's bad... We've been sued, no... not just a lawyer's letter, but a direct lawsuit."
After saying that, he placed the lawyer's letter, which had been delivered by express mail, on the table.
Editor-in-Chief Li could no longer remain calm and hurriedly tore open the email:
Because your publication has seriously published false information, causing damage to our reputation, we are formally notifying you of a lawsuit against Yangcheng Evening News. Please be prepared.
Transsion Legal Department!
Looking at the large red official seal below, even someone as seasoned as Editor-in-Chief Li couldn't sit still.
After all, he had his subordinates revise this draft more than 10 times, all to satisfy his sugar daddy...
Unexpectedly, Transsion didn't consult with them and directly filed a lawsuit.
Although it's unclear what kind of compensation they'll have to pay, judging from Chuanyin's personality, he'll definitely ruin their newspaper!
"What should we do?"
"Well... I don't know either! But, editor-in-chief, the best thing to do now is to find a lawyer to actively defend the case."
After all, Transsion's legal team is no pushover; they used to dominate the international scene, and now they're back, so we...
As he said this, the assistant's eyes kept darting around the conference room; after all, he was flustered too!
But then the editor-in-chief's eyes lit up and his gaze instantly fell on the junior editor.
"Li Peng, how have I treated you?"
"Editor-in-Chief Li, that would be excellent."
Then don't forget that you were the one who ordered us to write this, and you sent my draft back three times.
"You always provide precise guidance, and I even know a little about your phone conversations with General Manager Liu."
When Li Peng said this, his words carried a strong sense of threat.
"What do you want to do?" Editor-in-Chief Li slammed his fist on the table in anger. He hadn't expected that his pen would dare to talk back.
"You don't want to die, and neither do I!"
Besides, I only get a salary of 4000 yuan, and I don't get much commission from this newspaper. They want me to be a scapegoat? I'm not doing that.
"Can't you...can't you think about the company? The company won't treat you unfairly!"
"They all want me to be the scapegoat, yet they say they won't treat me unfairly..."
After saying that, he walked straight out of the office without mentioning his resignation or anything else. Since he had already said that, he believed that Director Li was not an idiot.
…………
Meanwhile, Liu Lirong also saw the statement and the reversal comments on her phone.
He never expected Lu Weibin to actually release that evidence, which would truly cement his place in the annals of shame.
Most importantly, shouldn't a company as large as Transsion be afraid of public opinion? Why did they directly file a lawsuit?
But just then, the landline phone rang. When he answered it, he found it was the legal department calling, and the caller sounded very flustered.
"Mr. Liu, the court summons has arrived."
Transsion has indeed sued us.
And...the tax and market supervision departments also called, saying they received a report and would be coming to investigate the accounts.
Liu Lirong's legs went weak instantly, and she collapsed onto the floor, her back instantly soaked with cold sweat.
He had a vague feeling that this staged accident plan was about to backfire.
Just as Liu Lirong was overwhelmed and at a loss with a table full of summonses, tax and market supervision department penalty notices, her secretary excitedly pushed open the office door.
"Mr. Liu, two guests who claim to be from the legal department of the rice company have come to visit you."
"And they also said that they can't stand companies that bully others by taking advantage of their power."
Liu Lirong's eyes lit up instantly, like a drowning person grasping at a straw.
He quickly stood up, tidied himself up in front of the mirror, and said, "Please come quickly! Please come to the reception room. I'll go there myself."
He knew very well that rice and sound transmission were mortal enemies, true mortal enemies.
At this point, the person coming to the door is definitely after someone who wants to transmit a message.
But so what? Gionee and Transsion had a long-standing conflict, one that was irreconcilable.
Why not take advantage of a free lawyer?
Moreover, with the backing of rice, they would have access to official resources from Kyoto, and the lawsuit might not be without a chance of turning things around.
In the meeting room, two legal advisors dressed in formal attire were sitting and drinking tea.
The two also discussed the lawsuit.
They weren't sure they'd win, but they thought they could really annoy the telepathic messenger and then get Lei Jun's travel expenses.
Upon seeing Liu Ruirong enter, the men in line immediately stepped forward and politely said:
"Hello, Mr. Liu."
We are senior consultants in the legal department of the rice company.
We have always disapproved of certain companies using their political capital and technological advantages to engage in unfair competition and suppress their peers.
We deeply sympathize with your company's current situation.
Liu Lirong immediately replied politely, "Companies like yours are the hope of China; those rubbish companies should be shut down!"
"It really should go bankrupt!"
The legal representative leading the team immediately warned his deputy, then continued to smile at Liu Lirong, extending an olive branch:
"Our legal team has assessed the situation and is willing to provide Gionee with full legal support free of charge to help you win this lawsuit against Gionee for defamation and unfair competition and seek justice!"
I believe there is still justice in this world!
