The official in charge of the [Snow Banana] trade with [Chaoqun Group] from Xiang Kingdom was very happy at first.
As a result, after [Chaoqun Group] received the order amount after the price increase, [Chaoqun Group] did not give him a kickback.
He ran to ask angrily.
[Chaoqun Group] responded rudely and said that this is the normal selling price and there is no money. If you feel unhappy, you can expose this matter!
Does that Xiangguo official dare to explode?
He doesn't dare!
So Xiang Guoguo enjoyed the unique treatment of receiving 10% less [Snow Banana] at a price that was 20% higher than the average selling price of [Snow Banana], but the other party took the initiative to raise the price.
[Chaoqun Group] Naturally, I would like to express my gratitude here.
But what makes [Chaoqun Group] strange is that Xiang Guoguo’s premium is not a secret internationally, but the official has been fine! Instead, it was because he purchased the [Snow Banana] that was in urgent need in the country, so that he
He is often praised domestically.
[Super Group] This side is convinced, this is a magical country!
But having said that, the official in charge of [Snow Banana] trade is fine, but the relationship between [Super Group] and Xiang Kingdom is very bad.
Once there is a chance to disgust [Super Group], they will never hesitate.
Like this [Monsoon Incident], there must be someone from the Xiang Kingdom behind it.
[Super Group] It is really not easy to collect evidence from within the Xiang Kingdom.
So there was nothing we could do.
[Elephant Weather] had no choice but to invite [Four-Armed King Kong] to add some new functions to the original system, specifically designed to target plagiarism programs that [copy] elephant weather data on the market.
.
It is not that these programs are prohibited from copying [Elephant Weather], but that the original data information is distorted during the copying process.
For example, originally during this time period, [Elephant Weather] predicted heavy rain, so when the software copied it, the information displayed was the sunny day, and the other party would only copy the information of [sunny day].
During this process, [Elephant Weather] paid close attention to the data on [Monsoon] and kept the data well.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
………
More than half of September 2021 has passed.
After collecting enough evidence, [Elephant Weather] decided to initiate a lawsuit against [Monsoon] of the target country.
There are two ways to litigate a cross-border lawsuit like this.
One, through domestic court proceedings.
However, this is like "taking the sword of the previous dynasty to kill the officials of this dynasty". Even if you win the lawsuit at home, you will generally not be looked down upon abroad.
Since judicial judgments are basically not recognized and enforced abroad, they can generally only be enforced by restricting departure, detaining passports, paying deposits, etc.
In many cases, the natural person being executed raises objections that he is not an employee or legal representative of the company, and the court faces the risk of execution errors during execution.
A small company like [Monsoon] has no property in the country and does not have a legal representative. If it wins, there is nothing it can do unless the government of the country is willing to cooperate.
Is Xiang Guoguo willing to cooperate?
Well, Xiang Guoguo is willing to cooperate with domestic companies to harvest your money!
Another route is to litigate through foreign courts.
The other party can deny the judgment of a domestic court, but the judgment of a foreign court, such as the Court of Elephant [Monsoon], cannot be denied. This involves the issue of legal authority.
However, there are many obstacles to such litigation.
There are several main obstacles.
First, the cost of foreign litigation is high.
Seven years ago, the average fee for lawyers in the United States was US$349/hour, and the fee for law firm partners was US$604/hour. At the same time, foreign law firms were unwilling to accept the contingency agency model, which led to the cost of litigation.
It's very expensive. If you win the lawsuit, it's fine. If you lose, you'll be in a mess.
Although Xiang Guoguo's legal fees are not that high, if he encounters such a good opportunity, he won't mind killing you.
Of course, this is only for individuals or small businesses. For [Chaoqun Group], not to mention [Chaoqun Group], for [Elephant Weather], this little money is just drizzle.
In fact, it has become very common for large companies to take advantage of their own advantages and benefit themselves through the litigation system.
Especially in the IT industry, there are several multinational mobile phone manufacturers. Today you sue me for infringement, and tomorrow you sue me for illegality. They are almost suing Numb.
If an individual or a small and micro enterprise is dragged into this kind of litigation quagmire, it will only get deeper and deeper.
There are other obstacles to passing foreign litigation, such as the extremely long process.
The litigation period of cross-border cases is extremely long. If the debtor files a counterclaim, the time will be unpredictable.
But for [Elephant Weather], this is not a problem.
The most important obstacle is actually that this kind of international litigation has to face local protectionism.
Especially a place like Xiangguoguo, where all kinds of weird things and strange cases happen.
For example, [McDonald's Branch in Xiangguo] suspected that local joint venturer Vikram Baksh had committed financial fraud, so he removed him from the position of president. However, after a trial by the local court in Xiangguo, Bakshi became the president of the company again.
The legal battle between [McDonald's] and Bakshi lasted for several years. After many iterations, they just couldn't win the lawsuit. In the end, they had to choose to cut off their hands and announced the closure of 170 stores.
You must know that [McDonald's] only had about 430 stores in Xiangguo at that time.
However, in Xiangguo, closing a store is not something you can just do if you want.
Bakshi does not agree with the closure. If it is forced to close, it will still be illegal.
[McDonald's], which is conquering cities and territories around the world, is tortured to death by the Xiangguo market!
The local protectionism is evident!
In fact, [Elephant Weather] was already mentally prepared when it launched the lawsuit.
The purpose of [Elephant Weather] is not to win the lawsuit, or in other words, the purpose is not just to win the lawsuit, but to heat up this event to give [Elephant Weather] greater exposure, and to...
Old users return.
The court of Elephant Kingdom can rule that [Elephant Weather] loses.
But everyone has a steelyard in their heart!
However, if international users know that the data of [Monsoon], which claims to be free of charge, comes from [Elephant Weather], and that due to [Elephant Weather]’s anti-piracy behavior, erroneous weather forecasts will appear from time to time, then [Monsoon] will inevitably lose a lot of money.
Users who need accurate weather prediction will return to [Elephant Weather]!
This is the plan of [Elephant Weather].
In fact, Wu Siyuan, the man behind [Elephant Weather], had a more profound plan in this incident.
