Young people, we must seize every opportunity.
This is the concept believed by mund and believed by most people in the world.
Lisa seized the opportunity. Now that she has reached this stage, the design scheme for the renovation of the theater can only be hers!
If Xia Xiaolan wins the lawsuit, Lisa will be infamous.
Monde studio will not keep a "thief", and other firms will not hire her, and her career future will come to an end.
Not only that, she also faces Xia Xiaolan's claim. Her savings over the years may not be enough to pay the compensation - so Lisa certainly can't lose.
Lisa looked down. "In addition to Matthew Carlton, there is a very key figure, Mrs. Wilson."
Mund thought of the contact information Mrs. Wilson gave him:
"I think this lady is definitely on your side. All you have to do is let Matthew Carlton understand what he should say."
If young people have a little talent, they are too arrogant and set up enemies everywhere.
The enemy of the enemy is a friend.
Mond can't talk to Matthew directly. He's hidden behind the scenes.
Lisa drove to Ithaca at the first time. She wanted to find Matthew Carlton, which was also a time difference. If she delayed a little longer, she was the defendant and Matthew was a witness, she could not contact Matthew.
Lisa went to Ithaca with a lawyer. Of course, the lawyer was recommended by Mond.
Knowing that their opponent was Eric, Mond didn't underestimate it. The last time Mrs. Dawson took two lawyers to Cornell University, they were fired. They were two losers. In the shortest time, he introduced Lisa to a professional lawyer in copyright. The lawyer worked with record companies all year round.
When the lawyer met Lisa, the first sentence was:
"There is nothing that cannot be solved by law. As long as you can pay the lawyer's fee, justice belongs to you."
How simple is the case of copyright ownership.
"Believe me, no one wants to be involved in litigation, but you have an advantage. You are in New York and the other party is in backward China. She must appear in court again and again, which will bring her down."
A lawyer?
More like a complaint stick.
The singers of record companies are infringed by defendants every year. How can there be so many original works? Some of them are mysterious. Whenever there is a dispute, lawyers come in handy. The best solution is to settle with money and sign a sealing agreement. If it can't be solved privately, it's more to drag it to court... A lawsuit is very simple. It's deliberately fought for two or three years. How many parties can't be affected?
The rich can bring down the poor.
Although Lisa is not very rich, is she at least richer than a Chinese student?
The lawyer introduced by Mond thought so, full of confidence.
He knew that Eric had accepted the plaintiff's entrustment, which didn't mean anything. Eric often sued for the poor.
Under the influence of lawyers, Lisa became more and more calm:
"How good it is to appear in court again and again. Let her go back and forth between the United States and China again and again. The time of these young people is always worthless!"
Her time is more valuable.
Lisa doesn't want to file a lawsuit at all. Out of court settlement is the best choice. Unfortunately, Xia Xiaolan won't agree.
What can reach an out of court settlement is that the two sides have negotiated the conditions. Different from the judgment of the lawyer, Lisa knows that Xia Xiaolan is not so short of money. Although Mrs. Wilson and Xia Xiaolan finally turned over, at first, Mrs. Wilson was very enthusiastic about appointing Xia Xiaolan to accept the entrustment, and customers from HK wanted Xia Xiaolan to make a resort plan. All these show that Xia Xiaolan's contacts - most of the friends of the poor are poor. If you can know the rich, you won't be too poor!
Xia Xiaolan has no shortage of money to file a lawsuit.
And their own advantage is geographical advantage.
The lawsuit is in the United States.
And the support of Mond Dawson.
And the support of AIA Association.
Lisa slowly cleared her mind and had figured out what to say to Matthew.
……
“Shit!”
"That's how it happened."
Eric shrugged. "You may think it's ridiculous, but you're really a key witness now. I've handled many cases and I know what will happen next. Before you stand in court to testify, Lisa will try to contact you and promise you all kinds of benefits. You know, they will give you whatever you want. I can understand that feeling... It's too hard to refuse! "
Huh?!
Matthew had a ghost look on his face.
Is this lawyer really hired by Xia Xiaolan?
It felt more like Lisa had invited him and persuaded him to give false testimony.
But, really give whatever you want?
Matthew was a little suspicious.
"Are you lying to me?"
Eric shook his head, "I didn't lie to you. On the surface, Xia just sued Lisa, but behind Lisa stood Mond Dawson, who had the same interests as AIA. I'm not saying that mund can control the whole AIA. It's only limited to this matter. Even if AIA finds itself wrong and asks them to admit their mistakes, it's too humiliating for them... Bloated organization and hypocritical bureaucracy. If you are smart enough, they will give you something. Something leaked from AIA is very valuable for your architecture major who has not graduated. You will struggle less for 5, 10, or 20 years. Can you resist such temptation? "
Matthew held his head in pain:
"God, you are a devil. Shut up and stop talking."
Boy is very anxious:
"You are the messenger of the devil. You have been bought by Lisa and they have deliberately come to lure me into making mistakes, haven't you?"
There is no need to struggle for 20 years.
Even if he didn't struggle for five years, he threw his peers out for a long time, okay!
So why let him face such temptation.
Matthew shook his head and shook his body like a drunken man: "I want her to change a lawyer, I must change a lawyer, you terrible devil!"
Eric suddenly put away his smile:
"Is it terrible for me to say so? No, when they do come, you will find that the things they exchange are more attractive than I described. Matthew Carlton, if you waver now, you'd better tell me the truth. You know, there is a kind of person who hates most in the world. It is not a total bad person, but a good person first and then a bad person. People will not trust the bad person, but will trust the good person. It is the kind of good person who looks very good. If such a good person gets bad halfway, it will give a fatal blow to my client - if you are unwilling to testify for her or can't handle temptation, Tell me now! "
Eric didn't beg.
He looked serious and pressed step by step. When he took one step, Matthew stepped back and pushed Matthew to the wall.
"Matthew Carlton, do you deserve our trust?"
"Are you willing to testify in court?"
"Are you afraid of the joint crackdown of Mond Dawson and AIA?"
"Are you a --"
Matthew can't retreat. The devil really wants to kill him. He pushes Eric away:
"Hell, everyone will be excited about the scene you describe, okay! I'm just an ordinary person eager for success... "
