Rebirth of the Evil Life

Ai Meili's lawsuit shocked the world.

Originally, according to the law, Ai Meili did not have to fight the lawsuit. After all, she was paid $25 back then, so from a contract law perspective, this image right had nothing to do with her. But once her lawsuit is filed and the media exposes it, it will become serious.

Originally, most people were not familiar with or understood the Statue of Liberty in the title sequence of Sony Columbia Pictures. But now that everyone understands that Amelie has been oppressed, living in poverty, and helpless for 66 years, the love of the American people overflows, and everyone fights against her. After all, the title was so sensational, but instead of receiving reasonable remuneration, the actor ended up living in poverty for the rest of his life. This is obviously unacceptable.

The law is on Sony Colombia's side, but public opinion is on Amelia's side. This also makes this lawsuit full of suspense. After all, the 13 jurors are all human beings. From a human perspective, they are definitely on Ai Meili's side. This is also where Ibuka Dezuki becomes depressed.

In desperation, Ibuka found Lin Feng.

"Mr. Lin, I think there may be some misunderstanding between us, and no matter what misunderstanding there is, we can talk about it." Ibuka said sincerely.

This incident was caused by Lin Feng. It is possible that the jury finally decided that Ai Meili won out of sympathy, and Ibuka had to use some off-the-table tricks.

"As a matter of fact, there is no misunderstanding between us, so there is nothing to talk about between us. I have decided on the matter of Ai Meili. If you want to talk, let's talk in court. Of course, I am It’s not like we don’t give people the chance, we will give you a discount of 100 million US dollars a year for the right to use the image, 5 billion US dollars in 66 years.” Lin Feng said.

$5 billion! Ibuka almost splashed the water in front of Lin Feng's face. You are too good at talking like a lion, why don't you grab 5 billion US dollars.

"This is indeed better than robbing. At least robbing, but you can't robbing US$5 billion!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Mr. Lin, don't think that you will win." Ibuka walked away.

"No!" Lin Feng laughed.

"Boss, this lawsuit is not easy to fight. Why not settle it out of court?" Lin Chiling asked in a low voice.

"Haha, Zhiling, there is no possibility of reconciliation between Sony Colombia and I. So there is no need to reconcile, let alone. What we want to ask for in this matter is not money. It's justice. To me, it's just a few billion dollars. , It’s not important. What’s important is justice and popularity!” Lin Feng said.

For Lin Feng,

Billions of dollars. It's really of no use. On the contrary, this kind of fairness and this kind of popularity are what Lin Feng values.

Three days later, the trial that shocked the entire film industry began. As expected by everyone, from the evidence point of view, Ai Meili did not have any advantage. The contract back then had bought out her image rights. Although it was only $25, the income was not proportional to the payment. But this is indeed in compliance with contract law and protected by law. After just one court hearing, the judge ruled in favor of Sony Colombia.

But Ibuka was not happy about this at all. Because the judge reminded Ai Meili in court that although she could not sue Sony Colombia for infringing the right to use her image, she could sue Sony Colombia for persecuting her, and she could ask Sony Colombia for material compensation and mental compensation for 66 years of living. In court, Ron announced a claim for $660,000 in compensation from Sony Columbia on behalf of Aimee. and $7 billion in moral damage. The judge accepted the case in court and announced that the trial would begin a week later.

Ron's claim, and the judge's acceptance, made Ibuka almost have a roaring court appearance on the spot. This is really a bit too bullying. Whether it is Lin Feng or Ron Law Firm. Or maybe this judge is a bit too bullying. This is completely trying to kill Sony Columbia. If Sony Columbia loses the lawsuit. This amount of compensation is enough to bankrupt Sony Columbia. $7 billion, that’s literally killing people. Not many companies can pay $7 billion in compensation.

If Sony Columbia really pays US$7 billion in compensation, Sony Columbia will have to go bankrupt unless the parent company comes with the money. However, the current operating conditions of the parent company are not very good, and I am afraid that it will not be able to spend US$7 billion to fill this hole. In particular, this hole is still a product of the Columbia Company era. There is even less reason for Sony to spend this money to fill this hole.

Once he loses, as the actual decision-maker of Sony Colombia, he is bound to bear corresponding responsibility. And this responsibility is nothing more than voluntarily resigning and taking all the blame on yourself. This is a consistent approach of Japanese companies. Sacrifice the small self and perfect the greater self.

For now, everyone sympathizes with Ai Meili's experience, and the judge took the initiative to let Ai Meili apply for personal persecution and compensation for mental losses. This obviously means that the judge is also on Ai Meili's side. As for the public, it goes without saying that according to the current public opinion polls of major media on the market, almost all of them are on the side of Ai Meili. Once the trial begins, Ibuka can predict that the jury will unanimously rule that Amelie wins.

No, absolutely not. Ibuka absolutely cannot accept this fact. It was impossible for him to accept the result of losing the lawsuit. Win, must win.

Persecution, since Ai Meili wants to accuse herself of being persecuted by the Colombian company, there must be evidence, at least witnesses and physical evidence. And all this has been 66 years ago, and those people back then are almost dead. As for their descendants, since Ai Meili was originally a dust-laden figure, no one will mention Ai Meili to future generations. The only witness currently is the only remaining veteran of Sony Columbia - Harry Cohen's son, Joseph Cohen. However, Joseph Cohen had already retired and returned to his hometown after Sony acquired Columbia. Now he holds the title of honorary chairman in the company. In fact, no one knows where he has gone. And he is similar in age to Ai Meili this year, and he should be close to 90.

He should know what happened back then, but his father sanctioned Ai Meili, and Ibuka believed that Joseph Cohen would not do anything to embarrass his father. Indeed, Joseph Cohen would not bring shame to his father, but when Lin Feng found Joseph Cohen, everything was completely different.

Therefore, Ibuka must find Joseph Cohen first. Fortunately, his connections in the United States are wider than those of Lin Feng. He believed that he would find Joseph Cohen first.

Lin Feng, do you think you will succeed? No, your conspiracy will never succeed! Ibuka sneered. He already has news about Joseph Cohen, who is enjoying the sun and beach in Miami. Use the money from selling Colombia to enjoy the last moments of life.

But what Ibuka Dezhi never expected was that when he rushed to Miami, Lin Feng also arrived there, and his target was the same as him, Joseph Cohen.

"Lin Feng, why are you here!" Izuka Ibuka growled.

"Haha, I'm not very familiar with America, but I have a brother named Ellison who is very familiar with America!" Lin Feng smiled slightly.

idiot! Ibuka cursed secretly in his heart, and then took the lead, entered Joseph Cohen's room, and found Joseph Cohen who was sunbathing on the balcony in the back garden.

"Joseph, I think you already know what happened. I think you won't do anything that will bring shame to your father." Ibuka said.

Joseph Cohen is 89 years old this year. He is very old. When he saw the well coming in, he did not get up, but looked at the sun.

"The weather here is really good. It's very suitable for an old man like me to spend his last days here." Joseph said slowly.

Ibuka frowned slightly. He had already guessed what the old guy was going to say next.

"How many do you want?" Ibuka asked through gritted teeth.

"Not much, 300 million U.S. dollars. I am 89 years old this year. The doctor said that there will be no problem with my body living for another three to five years. In order to make the last three to five years of my life more enjoyable, I need 300 million U.S. dollars. Here. If I have 300 million dollars, I will keep Amelie’s secret forever, otherwise, I will tell it,” Joseph said with a smile.

blackmail! This is naked blackmail! ——Ibuka gritted his teeth.

"Haha, well, if you think it's too expensive, then Mr. Joseph, let's make a deal. If you tell me about it, I'll give you 300 million US dollars!" Lin Feng walked in with a smile.

Joseph turned his head and looked at Lin Feng, his eyes brightening slightly.

"I know you. You are Lin Feng, the richest man in the world. Now that you are here, I think my old age will be guaranteed!" Joseph laughed.

Ibuka's face was full of gloom. Lin Feng had a smile on his face.

"Yes, I'm here. You will indeed be happy in your later years! How about making an offer! Let you live a better life in your later years." Lin Feng said with a shrug.

"Lin Feng, are you willing to be blackmailed by this old bastard! 300 million US dollars, that's 300 million US dollars!" Ibuka roared. This amount of money is too much, and it is impossible for Sony Columbia to come up with it, but if he wants to settle this matter, he must pay for it himself. Although he could take out the money, if he gave it to Joseph, an old bastard, he himself would be poor. It makes no sense, the company is rich and the individual is poor.

"Haha, I'm not willing to accept it, but what I'm even more unwilling to do is that someone is wronged in vain. I don't want Ms. Ai Meili to go to God with her grievances. For us in China, you can't go to heaven after death, you have to go to hell. " Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Asshole!" Ibuka scolded.

"Concession!" Lin Feng handed over his hand. (To be continued)
