Chapter 1964 Foreign Litigation

 This time Huo Shan and Guo Degang went to the UK to litigate a lawsuit. Huo Shan, as the plaintiff, of course had to go. One brought relevant evidence and documents, and the other brought money.

Of course, as a fellow countryman, Guo Degang must also accompany him, to save people to the end, and to send Buddhas to the West. As a fellow countryman, Guo Degang must also accompany him for such things.

Of course, Ye Ming arranged for the person in charge of the British side of Huihuang.com to find a translator. Otherwise, Huoshan and his gang would be blinded directly, and it would be difficult to get over the language barrier, let alone deal with him.

However, when Guo Degang and Huo Shan met the lawyer, they were basically completely relieved.

Guo Degang was also secretly thinking that his boss was really thoughtful and found a lawyer for them in the UK, and he was a lawyer who could speak Chinese. This fully took care of himself and the Huo family.

the language factor.

Lawyer Pedro said very happily: "Guo, actually, in this case, according to our British laws and similar cases in the past, the possibility of you winning is quite high.

As your lawyer, I actually charge the lowest fee. If you lower the price any further, it would be inappropriate. After all, I am here to expand the Chinese market and I have not asked you for a higher fee.

"Foreign legal fees are so expensive that they are calculated on an hourly basis. This is a problem that Huo Shan and others are unaware of.

One hundred and twenty pounds an hour, what's the difference between this and robbing money? At least in Huoshan's eyes, this fee is indeed a bit high.

Guo Degang reacted a little faster and said immediately: "Master Huo, come on, we charge by the hour. If you have any questions, you'd better talk to a lawyer quickly. Every minute is worth money.

If you can bargain hard, you can save money."

Pedro said with a smile; "Actually, this matter is not without any room for redemption. I have seen your case. According to the existing evidence chain of your case, unless the middle defendant can

If you present new and strong evidence, your side is very likely to win the case.

Therefore, according to British law, the losing party must bear the other party’s legal fees. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about the cost.”

After hearing that there was no need to worry about the cost, Huo Shan and Guo Degang breathed a long sigh of relief. If they didn't have to worry about the money, then the rest would be easy.

Guo Degang then said: "This relationship is good. We have the same idea there. Generally, the person who loses the lawsuit will bear the other party's expenses. As for whether we can win the lawsuit, my boss has already said that according to the current situation,

We are basically guaranteed to win.

After all, there is the case of a superstar like Britney Spears as a case reference."

Pedro said with a smile: "That's right, your boss is very foresighted. I was also very curious. Chinese people don't like litigation very much. According to your tradition, people die unjustly without suing.

Is my understanding correct?"

This guy did have a certain understanding of China, but Guo Degang would not be so passive and immediately said: "Man, you are wrong, aren't we here to litigate?"

What you are talking about was in the past. Now when we file a lawsuit and write the complaint ourselves, the filing fee is 50 yuan.

In our case, it's the price of one or two packs of better cigarettes. High-end cigarettes can build a good case.

Therefore, some people over there are not afraid of lawsuits at all. According to our boss, as long as you are reasonable, even if you dare to ask for compensation of one billion or two billion, you will definitely win the lawsuit anyway, right?

It’s the judge’s business to decide how much to award, and it’s the plaintiff’s right to demand how much compensation.”

Pedro shrugged his shoulders and said with great admiration: "Yes, that's right. That's what I'm going to say next. When I knew that Mr. Ye Ming was behind this matter, I knew that this matter

Basically there is no problem.

Ye Ming even dared to directly sue the White House to the court. Almost all lawyers in the West know that this star is a person who likes to litigate.

In Chinese terms, he is the kind of person whose flaws must be reported. Therefore, when it comes to a problem like this, only people like Ye Ming can solve this problem.

According to his connections in Hollywood, he knows that Britney Spears left the U.S. alone without pursuing a lawsuit and went to the U.K. to sue her. This is totally fine.

Only a visionary like him would think of letting you come to the UK to litigate.

If everyone has the same personality as Ye Ming, I think I will hopefully become a billionaire in my lifetime.

The above is my respect for your boss. The five minutes are not included in the fee. Now let’s continue counting. Let’s talk about your case and Xiangguang’s evidence.”

Huo Shan and Guo Degang were also well prepared and brought various relevant evidence to the lawyers.

Pedro did not read it immediately, but said seriously: "As the lawyer you hired, I have the obligation to remind you whether all the evidence has been backed up.

After all, some things are not easy to grasp. Once there is a lack of evidence, it will be very beneficial if you have a backup.

Anything is possible and every one of my clients gets a reminder from me.”

Evidence preservation is also quite useful. Therefore, on such an issue, Pedro immediately reminded Huoshan and the others.

When Pedro got the affirmative answer, he looked at the evidence carefully, and then said: "Okay, I have looked at all these things. According to the existing evidence, you should be the winning party.

Moreover, the Chinese government has officially recognized you as the descendants of the martial artist Mr. Fearless. Therefore, you also have the qualification to sue the Fearless crew. Another very important point is that at this time

, the movie Fearless was also released in the UK.

Therefore, the British court also has certain jurisdiction over this case.

Just wait for the good news of victory. In addition, in order to attract the attention of the media, your compensation for transportation workers and other workers must be doubled. You must know that this is a lawsuit in the United Kingdom, and the compensation fee must be in line with the national conditions.

There is also the mental damage fee. Don’t use 500,000 yuan for this, it is too low.

The court usually awards mental compensation based on the actual situation, ranging from one-tenth to one-third of the amount of mental compensation you sue for.

Because mental compensation is the most elusive. It should be 5 million. This is just a gimmick anyway. By then, it will almost be possible to award at least 500,000.

The premise is that the other party does not provide new and strong evidence to prove that it was unintentional."

Lawyers are professionals. After seeing the evidence, they knew that the case must have been won. The related expenses would be borne by the losing party anyway. Therefore, Pedro raised the mental damages fee to 50% without any hesitation.

million.

This is actually a way to attract media attention.

In this case, as the first Chinese lawyer to come to the UK to litigate reputational rights, at such a time, he will gain a huge reputation.

At that time, it will actually be very helpful for him to expand the market in China.

You must know that even if Pedro is not a top lawyer in the UK, he is still very famous. Five or six hundred an hour is normal.

One hundred and twenty is close to the price for a newbie, and it is considered Pedro’s own bottom line. If it were not for the issue of fame, Pedro would not have accepted this lawsuit at all.

Huo Shan glanced at Guo Degang, meaning he was asking Guo Degang how to handle this matter.

Guo Degang immediately said: "Master Huo, why are you hesitating? You are the weaker party. If there is no media attention, how can you win the case?

Of course, I will increase it. If you ask me to increase it to 8 million, it is just for good luck." After hearing this, Huo Shan nodded and increased it to 8 million.

Pedro nodded to express receipt, then glanced at Guo Degang with admiration and said: "Dear Guo, I have to say that you are a courageous person, and people like you are the ones who can do big things.

What is it called, a capable minister in governing the world, a hero in troubled times?"

Guo Degang immediately became anxious: "Man, can you speak? That was about the traitorous minister Cao Cao. It was not a word of praise. Did I ask you to praise me?"

Pedro shrugged his shoulders and expressed his understanding. Cao Cao seemed to have a bit of a dark reputation in China, and he was a traitorous minister.

Getting down to business, Pedro quickly revised his case and directly sued Huo Jianyuan's crew and the relevant British distribution company.

Anyway, no matter how detailed the matter is, lawyers will understand it professionally. Pedro's fee of 120 per hour has its own value. On this point, his professional knowledge is beyond doubt.

.

After coming out, Huo Shancai said with some worry: "Mr. Guo, I just figured out that the eight million we want seems to be pounds. This is equivalent to Chinese currency, which is almost 100 million. Is this matter too big?

A little?"

But Guo Degang didn't care at all and said: "You don't care what he does, isn't there Pedro?

He said that it would be good to compensate you one-tenth, which is about more than ten million. Besides, what you want is fame, the fame of victory. The other party wants to apologize to your Huo family, and it is not for money. All this money is

It is to be donated to make Master Huo famous.

The more the merrier. By the way, remember, after receiving the money, donate it as soon as possible. If our boss thinks you are fooling him, then I don’t guarantee what will happen at this time?"

What Guo Degang fears most is that the Huo family will suddenly become greedy for money. If there is really too much compensation, they will simply steal all the money.

In this case, the comparison is inappropriate. After all, when it comes to this kind of issue, there are more people who are jealous of money than decent people.

Otherwise, why do people say that it is good to be a gentleman? In fact, most people hope that others will be gentlemen. When it is their turn, they will naturally give priority to their interests.

In fact, there are not so many decent people in the world.

With enough benefits, even if you let ghosts push you around, let alone people? Therefore, on such an issue, what Guo Degang is most afraid of is that the Huo family will cause something else.

It is more than ten million. It is difficult for ordinary people to save this kind of money in their lifetime. Even if it is one million, how many ordinary people can save that much money.

Most people actually spend as much as they earn, and if they can have savings, they are people who know how to get by.

Therefore, at this time, Guo Degang had to tell Huo Shan to think about it carefully before making a decision.

Huo Shan agreed and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Guo, I know very well what can and cannot be done, and we will not mess this up.

If I keep my word, our Huo family's reputation in Jinmen will be ruined in the streets. I will not ruin the Huo family's reputation just for money.

At least I can guarantee that this is the case for my generation. As for the young people of the next generation, whoever dares to reach out, I will break their legs directly."

As the talker of the Huo family in Jinmen, Huo Shan still has plenty of confidence at this time.

Regarding such an issue, no matter whether it is true or not, as a member of the older generation of martial arts, he values ​​the reputation of his family more than anything else.

In fact, it was Huo Shan's character who rushed to the car. Therefore, what Guo De would have done just now, if Huo Shan had not come forward, he might not have taken care of this matter.

Hearing Huo Shan's assurance, Guo Degang nodded with satisfaction and said, "With your assurance, Mr. Huo, I will feel more at ease.

Our boss, you look young and young, but you are ruthless at heart. Every defect must be reported, which is how the entertainment industry evaluates our boss.

Just think about it for yourself, what kind of person is our boss?" In fact, without Guo Degang's explanation, Huo Shan already knew very well what kind of person Ye Ming was.

Because Huo Shan can clearly feel that Ye Ming is a master, a real master, so high that it is difficult for people to compare with him.

He is the kind of real master who has great skills.

Anyway, Huo Shan himself felt that if Ye Ming dealt with him in such a matter, he would be able to kill him directly without the need for bodyguards to take action.

As a martial arts practitioner, he is actually quite sensitive to this kind of situation. Huo Shan is actually quite clear about what kind of person Ye Ming is.

He himself is also secretly wondering what kind of person your boss is, and I guess you may not be very clear about it either.

It is said that Ye Ming is a Kung Fu star, but a few people can think of it, Ye Ming is actually a Kung Fu master.

At this point, it is enough for Huo Shan to put aside some of his ambitions.

Going against Ye Ming seemed like an act seeking death in Huoshan.
