Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 585 The Ultimate Purpose

Although the United States has not yet released the evidence, the evidence has been obtained, and Lu Shaohua is much more confident. He is a person who likes to plan ahead, so he has arranged all the subsequent matters and will launch a strong counterattack when the evidence is released.

However, Lu Shaohua felt that it was not enough to rely solely on QQ to enter the US market. Phoenix Group suffered such a huge loss this time, how could Lu Shaohua only fight back on this point? Phoenix computers and Phoenix operating systems were both produced by Phoenix Group, and now there was such a good opportunity, how could Lu Shaohua let it go?

Publicity, vigorous publicity is the only thing Lu Shaohua can do. However, when the storm started, the American media actually rejected the advertisements of Phoenix Group and would rather pay a huge amount of liquidated damages than fight. He has been sued by Phoenix Group and the case is still under trial. In the end, there is no conclusion. The two parties have fallen out. It may not be easy to run Phoenix Group's advertisements again.

However, Lu Shaohua still has a killer weapon, which is to sue the American media for an additional crime, a crime that will make no media outlet able to pay compensation. Lu Shaohua does not believe that the American media will not succumb to his tyranny.

Lu Shaohua was very familiar with Qin Sichen's phone number, which was also saved in his mobile phone's address book, so he could dial it directly. All Lu Shaohua had to do was press the dial button lightly and it would be done.

“Beep, beep.”

After two rings, the call was connected. Lu Shaohua had already put the phone to his ear. After hearing the response from the other end of the phone, Lu Shaohua spoke. "It's me. How about this? You call Mr. Chen and our group's legal advisor to your office. I'll be there in half an hour."

"Okay." At this time, Qin Sili had no time to communicate with Lu Shaohua. She faced Lu Shaohua in a completely work-like manner, and her voice was very formal.

After saying just one sentence, the phone was hung up. Lu Shaohua originally wanted to make arrangements over the phone, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he swallowed them back and thought it would be better to go to the group in person to make arrangements. If he could make arrangements more carefully, Lu Shaohua would feel more at ease.

Without further ado, after Lu Shaohua hung up the phone, he hurriedly asked Li Shangkui and others to prepare the car, then went out and got in the car, and drove away in the direction of Fenghuangji Building in a mighty manner.

……

The Executive President’s Office on the 29th floor of Phoenix Building.

There were already three people in the office at this time. One was Qin Sichen, the owner of this office. Another was Chen Darong, the general manager of Phoenix Entertainment. The other was a very stranger. Lu Shaohua had never seen her before. She was a woman who looked less than 30 years old. She wore a pair of glasses and looked gentle and elegant.

Needless to say, she is none other than the Phoenix Group's legal advisor who rarely shows up - Fan Xiaoxuan. She is usually not in the Phoenix Group, but stays in her own office. Fan Xiaoxuan will only come to the Phoenix Building if there is something going on with the Phoenix Group.

After entering Qin Sichen's office, Lu Shaohua was not polite. He glanced at everyone, then paused on Fan Xiaoxuan's face. He looked at her for a while, then looked away and nodded gently as a greeting. Then he sat down on the sofa that had been prepared.

"Phoenix Group is facing a crisis. I believe you all know this. I came here today for two main reasons. The first is that the crisis we are facing will soon be resolved." Lu Shaohua first gave a piece of good news, then paused before continuing. "The second thing is about the rumors and advertising breaches that the American media spread a few days ago."

At this point, Lu Shaohua's eyes swept across everyone's faces, and finally stopped at Fan Xiaoxuan's face, and asked, "Ms. Fan, right? I want to ask you, from the perspective of American law, will unfounded reports violate the law?"

"Yes." Fan Xiaoxuan said very affirmatively.

Originally, Fan Xiaoxuan was a Hong Kong lawyer and should not have known the laws in the United States. But unfortunately, Fan Xiaoxuan went to study in the United States in his early years and was very familiar with the laws there, so he was able to answer quickly.

"Well, I only have one request, and that is to sue them and ask them to pay compensation." Lu Shaohua set the tone with just two words: sue.

Two lawsuits were filed in the U.S. Supreme Court, one for spreading rumors and the other for breach of advertising contract. As for why Lu Shaohua suddenly announced that he would sue them, there was certainly a reason for it.

The two sides have already fallen out, and Lu Shaohua is settling scores after the fact, but Lu Shaohua is also putting pressure on the American media! You know, the American media must hate Phoenix Group to death now. If they don't put some pressure on them, how can they advertise for Phoenix Group obediently?

Of course, it is impossible for Lu Shaohua to just ask them to advertise for Phoenix Group. After all, the rumors spread by their media was also a fuse that plunged Phoenix Group into dire straits. Things that need to be clarified still need to be clarified. In addition, they can advertise for Phoenix Group for free as compensation.

"I will go to the United States personally and sue the media involved." Fan Xiaoxuan was decisive and agreed immediately.

"No." Lu Shaohua smiled and said, "It is important to sue them, but it is just a formality. Miss Fan can find a client. I don't intend to sue them, but to make them give in and settle the matter privately. Therefore, there is no need for Miss Fan to go to the United States to sue in person."

Although Lu Shaohua's words were a bit contradictory, they were not unreasonable. The last sentence was what Lu Shaohua meant most.

Fan Xiaoxuan seemed to be thinking about something, and then he nodded and said, "How about this, I will entrust one of my classmates to submit the indictment to the court, and then I will notify you after the other party comes over for negotiation."

It was true that Fan Xiaoxuan was the legal advisor of Phoenix Group, but that was just a sinecure and she was not really involved in Phoenix Group. Lu Shaohua did not reveal how the private settlement was done, so Fan Xiaoxuan knew that Lu Shaohua did not want her to know. So, without asking any more questions, Fan Xiaoxuan directly agreed to be the vanguard and be sent by Lu Shaohua to negotiate later.

"Yes." Lu Shaohua was very satisfied with Fan Xiaoxuan's performance, nodded, and said, "Then I won't bother Miss Fan. Go and do whatever you need to do. As for the prosecution, I'll leave it to Miss Fan."

Everyone could hear that Lu Shaohua was polite and wanted to leave. Fan Xiaoxuan was no exception. She also heard it and stood up from her chair. She nodded to everyone and stopped her gaze on Lu Shaohua's face. "Then I'll leave first."

"Yeah." Lu Shaohua nodded, his expression was very calm, no change could be seen, and he didn't have any intention of sending Fan Xiaoxuan off.

Come to think of it, what is the identity of Lu Shaohua and what is the identity of Fan Xiaoxuan? The two are not on the same level at all. How could Lu Shaohua get up to see her off? You have to know that Lu Shaohua is the chairman of Phoenix Group and his net worth is over one trillion US dollars, while Fan Xiaoxuan is just a lawyer, a better and prettier lawyer, and they are not on the same level at all.

After Fan Xiaoxuan left, Lu Shaohua also returned to his old mood, with a faint smile on his face. He glanced at Qin Sichen and Chen Darong, and then said, "There is one more thing. Regarding the American media, our Phoenix Group and the American media have completely fallen out. It is impossible for them to advertise for our Phoenix Group now. Therefore, I will use the lawsuit to put pressure on them and make them obey."

Lu Shaohua told them all his plans, and after he finished speaking, he looked at the two of them and said, "I am 100% sure that the American media will definitely give in to us and ask us to solve the problem privately. Our request is also very simple, that is, we want them to continue advertising for us and use advertising to offset the losses they have caused us."

Some people may ask, why does Lu Shaohua think that the American media will give in to Phoenix Group? The reason is simple. If they don't give in, then they will not be able to compensate Phoenix Group for its losses. You know, this kind of damage to reputation is a huge sum of money to pay. In addition, Phoenix Group is so huge that no media can afford to pay.

Therefore, anyone with a bit of common sense would surrender to Phoenix Group and ask to resolve the issue privately, because they have no way out. No, it cannot be said that they have no way out, there is still one way out, and that is bankruptcy, and then selling the company to compensate Phoenix Group for its losses.

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Shaohua finished speaking, Qin Sichen and Chen Darong nodded as if they had realized something. They finally knew Lu Shaohua's ultimate goal.

"What if they don't give in?" Qin Sichen made another assumption.

"If they don't give in, I'll sue them until they go bankrupt." Lu Shaohua said firmly.

Now, Qin Sichen had nothing to say. He just nodded gently, closed his mouth, and sat there quietly, waiting for Lu Shaohua's next words.

Lu Shaohua did not disappoint them. After a pause, he continued, "When we go to settle the matter privately with them, we only have one request, which is to advertise for our Phoenix Group. As for how long the advertisement is for free, we will try our best to get it, as long as possible. Another request is that they must publicly apologize to our Phoenix Group. These are the two most basic points. If these two points cannot be met, then there is no need to discuss it, and we can just file a lawsuit directly."

Negotiations were something that Qin Sichen had to handle. He had to decide who to negotiate with and how to negotiate. So when Lu Shaohua started talking, Qin Sichen nodded and said, "I'll make the arrangements."

"Yes." Lu Shaohua nodded to Qin Sichen, then moved his eyes to Chen Darong's face and said, "Mr. Chen, I'll leave the advertising planning to you. Just like last time, come up with some fresh ads to make our Phoenix Group popular."

"No problem." Chen Darong smiled and said confidently.

"Okay, that's it. There's nothing else to do. I'll go back. There are some things that need to be arranged." After saying that, Lu Shaohua left in a hurry and returned to his villa without waiting for Qin Sichen and Chen Darong to react.

Lu Shaohua had no intention of lying. He did have something to arrange, and it was very important, so important that it affected the effect of the counterattack...
