Chapter 440

: Rich family background

After all, Paul was born in a family of high-level intellectuals, so overall his quality is quite high. He is not like others. When he heard that Ye Chen was a son-in-law, he looked at him differently.

Ye Chen didn't feel embarrassed. After all, he has been a son-in-law for a day or two. It can be said that he has gained experience in eating soft food and has made it easy to eat.

At this time, Paul said to Ye Chen again: "By the way, Mr. Ye, since you know Mr. Chen from Shangri-La, I don't know if it's convenient for you to take some time to recommend me? After all, I just moved the company back to Jinling, and I still need to actively expand the local resources and connections in Jinling. If Mr. Ye can help me with this, I will definitely not treat you badly."

Ye Chen didn't want Paul to know how close he and Chen Zekai were. After all, he almost guessed his relationship with the Ye family just now. If he really got to know Chen Zekai through himself, he might have tasted more details from it.

So he said to Paul apologetically: "Mr. Paul, I'm going to tell you that Mr. Chen is not familiar with Mr. Chen. I just have a personal relationship with one of Mr. Chen's friends, and I feel ashamed of this. I met that person when I helped others read Feng Shui."

"Feng Shui?" Paul asked in surprise: "Mr. Ye, are you a Feng Shui master?"

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said calmly: "It's not a Feng Shui master. He just read a few books and learned from the old man for a while. To put it bluntly, it's somewhat a bit of a fool."

Xiao Changkun, who was standing beside him, was afraid that Ye Chen would be embarrassed, so he asked smoothly: "By the way, Paul, what business does your company do? They all moved from the United States to Jinling, so the business should be very large, right?"

Paul smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Xiao, our company is actually a multinational law firm, mainly providing high-end legal support to some Fortune 500 companies."

Xiao Changkun asked in surprise: "Paul, are you also a lawyer?"

Paul nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Xiao, my father and I are both lawyers. To be clear, I have inherited his mantle."

Xiao Changkun sighed: "The requirement of being a lawyer in the United States seems to be very high. Generally speaking, it seems that you need a doctorate to do so, right?"

Paul smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Xiao, you are right. There are two professions in the United States that require the highest education requirements, one is a doctor and the other is a lawyer. Generally speaking, a formal registered lawyer must at least graduate from a law school with a master's degree."

Xiao Changkun nodded slightly and asked again: "What degree do you have?"

Paul said modestly: "My PhD graduated from Yale Law School."

Xiao Changkun nodded in surprise and said, "Yale University is a world-class university! It is really amazing to be admitted to a doctorate in such a university!"

Paul said seriously: "Uncle, I'm going to tell you, even if I get a doctorate degree, I only have the qualification to be a regular lawyer. A truly good lawyer needs to go through a long period of growth. Some even require more than 10 years of experience in 20 years of experience in the workplace and practical experience in hundreds of cases that win. So to me, I am just an entry-level elementary school student."

Speaking of this, Paul looked at his mother Han Meiqing and said, "Actually, I have just graduated. If I were to let me run our own law firm independently, my own experience is far from enough, so I am just taking on the position of general manager on the surface, but I am really helping me with advice and even guiding me to run the company. If it weren't for her help, the company would probably be ruined in my hands."

Xiao Changkun looked at Han Meiqing in surprise and blurted out: "Oh Meiqing, are you very proficient in the affairs of law and law firms?"

Paul smiled and said, "Uncle Xiao, don't underestimate my mother. In fact, my mother is also a doctoral student at Yale Law School. She and my father met and got married at the Master's School of Law School of Yale. Later, my father founded his family's law firm, and his mother has been helping him. Without my mother, my father's career would not have been successful."

Then, Paul sighed with a self-deprecating voice: "It's just that my ability has not grown yet, so I have to bother my mother to distract me."

Han Meiqing smiled and said, "Son, you have done a very good job. Mom really hopes that you can grow up as soon as possible and then take over the company in full. In this way, Mom won't have to work so hard anymore."

As he said that, Han Meiqing couldn't help but sigh: "Mom is back in China and back in Jinling. My biggest idea is not to start our family's career in Jinling, but to enjoy the retirement life of an old Chinese lady in Jinling."

Afterwards, Han Meiqing looked at Xiao Changkun in her heart and sighed: I have worked hard in the United States for so many years, but in fact I am very tired of my career.

In addition, I have never really felt the taste of love, so I really want to go back to China now, let go of everything I used to, and concentrate on being an old lady. If I have the chance, I hope to renew my relationship with Xiao Changkun, my first love, so that I can make up for my regrets over the years.

He also knows that lawyers in the United States are actually a very popular profession, because many litigation compensation amounts in the United States are very high, often tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars.

According to media reports, a few years ago, someone sued the famous American tobacco brand Marlboro, which induces smoking and causes death, and the US court actually awarded a sky-high compensation of hundreds of millions of US dollars.

There was an Asian man who was beaten by American Airlines security guards on the plane. The incident had a great and bad impact on the airline. In the end, the lawyer won tens of millions of dollars in compensation for the Asian man.

For lawyers, they also have to get at least 30% to 50% of the compensation amount, and sometimes even higher.

So, this is why American lawyers are very professional, and they are simply desperate for lawsuits, and they even do everything they can.

Because the benefits behind this are too great, it is possible to win a big lawsuit, and the direct compensation is millions or tens of millions of dollars, which is much easier than making money for ordinary people.

Therefore, in the United States, the status of lawyers is also very high, and they are completely high-ranking people.

Especially some of the more famous super-large people in the United States. People like this can generally become billionaires, even many stars, rich people, and important guests of honor in the United States.

Therefore, Xiao Changkun couldn't help feeling more inferior, because he could guess that the Han Meiqing family's family's family must be very, very rich, and even enough to make their mother and son an upper class in Jinling.
