Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

Chapter 665: Professional anti-counterfeiters apply to fight

There is a station market near the train station.

This kind of station market can be found in many cities across the country. In the early years, stations did not plan any commercial areas, so many mobile vendors came to set up street stalls.

Relying on the advantage of densely populated railway stations or bus stations, street stalls will gradually develop into regular shops and form a market. This kind of market basically sells everything from food to daily necessities.

The quality of goods in this type of market is also uneven. The consumers who patronize here are all traveling from north to south. Travelers who pass through here because of business trips will not come all the way from other places even if they buy fake and shoddy products. Came here to return or exchange goods.

Therefore, the things sold in the market in front of the station are all cheap and inferior goods, and many of them can only be regarded as one-time products.

Of course, selling fake products in places like this is something that the people do not take action against, and it has become an unspoken rule.

It was in this station market that Hong Zhengyang opened a shop selling electrical appliances. I usually sell some three-no products, as well as fake and shoddy products.

The profit from counterfeit and shoddy products is quite large. Relying on the flow of people near the station, Hong Zhengyang's business is considered good. He can earn tens of thousands of yuan in a year, which is much better than finding a class.

On this day, Hong Zhengyang was looking at the store when a young man walked in.

This young guy was carrying a big bag in his hand and looked dusty. It looked like he was from out of town and had just gotten off the train.

"Handsome guy, what do you want?" Hong Zhengyang hurried forward to greet him.

"Boss, do you have a hair dryer here?" the young man asked.

"Yes! We have several types here!" Hong Zhengyang took a hair dryer from the shelf, and then explained: "This is a puppy hair dryer, a big brand, and the best one we sell here is this one! "

Compared with Sanwu products, the profit of counterfeit products is still greater. The purchase price of the two is about the same, but counterfeit products can be sold for more money if they are branded, so Hong Zhengyang is also used to recommending fake products to customers. .

The young man took the hair dryer, looked at it carefully, and then asked, "Is this a hair dryer for puppies?"

"Of course, isn't there a trademark on it?" Hong Zhengyang nodded.

"Puppy is also a well-known brand." The young man then asked: "How much does this hair dryer cost?"

"I usually sell it for sixty-five. If you want to buy it, I will wipe out the change for you. You can give it sixty!" Hong Zhengyang said.

"Sixty? So expensive? Boss, make it cheaper!" the young man said.

"Sixty is already the cheapest!" Hong Zhengyang shook his head.

"Forty, if you sell it, I'll take it!" the young man said.

"Forty is definitely not enough. I can't even get in. I have to pay for it!" Hong Zhengyang looked very embarrassed. He gritted his teeth and held out five fingers: "Fifty, maybe. I’ll sell it to you at the purchase price, just treat it as a business today!”

The young man was stunned for a moment before confirming: "Boss, is it fifty-eight or fifty?"

"Fifty, not eight!" The boss thought to himself, he must practice Mandarin well in the future.

"Okay, fifty is fifty. You have a power supply here. Turn it on and I'll give it a try." The young man said.

"Don't worry, it will definitely work if you don't need to try it." Hong Zhengyang said this, but still brought the power strip over.

After trying out the hair dryer, the young man paid for it and asked Hong Zhengyang for the invoice.

Looking at the young man's leaving figure, Hong Zhengyang put the fifty yuan into his pocket with satisfaction.

"Items purchased for fifteen yuan can be sold for fifty as soon as they are resold. It is so easy to make money these days!"

At the same time, Zhao Shun, who had not gone far, was holding the fake hair dryer and couldn't help but look back at Hong Zhengyang, with a smile on his face.

"For fifty yuan, you can make five hundred in the blink of an eye. It's so easy to make money these days!"

…

During lunch time, Hong Zhengyang bought a lunch box from nearby and even added a chicken drumstick for himself.

Zhao Shun appeared in the shop again.

Hong Zhengyang recognized Zhao Shun and immediately came forward to greet him: "Handsome guy, here you go again, what else do you want to buy?"

Zhao Shun took out the hair dryer he bought in the morning: "Boss, the hair dryer you sold me this morning is fake!"

"Nonsense, how could I not know that this is a fake!" Hong Zhengyang thought to himself, but an innocent expression appeared on his face; "What a fake, I didn't sell you a fake!"

Zhao Shun ignored Hong Zhengyang's excuse and said, "Boss, according to the Consumer Rights Protection Law, you will pay three for every fake, so you have to pay me!"

"Should I compensate you?" Hong Zhengyang curled his lips, then twirled his sleeves and said viciously, "Boy, I think you want to cause trouble? Believe it or not, I will prevent you from getting out of this door!"

Zhao Shun stepped back subconsciously, and then said: "If you don't pay compensation, I will go to the industrial and commercial department to report you for selling fake goods!"

"You can go find whoever you want! Anyway, get out of here right away, or I won't be rude!" Hong Zhengyang still looked like he was about to fight.

"Okay, just wait!" Zhao Shun said harshly, turned around and left.

Hong Zhengyang spat on the ground and curled his lips in disdain: "You bought something from me and want to return it, but there is no way!"

When you open a store in a place like the Zhanqian Market, you basically don’t intend to buy repeat customers. Reputation and reputation are not important, as long as you can cheat every one. There is no such thing as a return!

As for Zhao Shun's words that he was going to sue him, Hong Zhengyang didn't take it to heart.

In Hong Zhengyang's view, Zhao Shun is just trying to scare people. Although there are many channels for safeguarding rights, safeguarding rights is a troublesome matter after all, and it requires paying a cost. When ordinary people encounter trouble, they often swallow their anger. How many people can do it? Who will truly defend their rights?

Furthermore, the industrial and commercial department receives countless fake and shoddy reporting calls in a day, and how can it handle them?

…

However, when it was time to get off work in the evening, Zhao Shun came again.

"Hey! I said you are looking for death!" Hong Zhengyang once again showed a sinister expression, rolling up his sleeves and pretending to fight.

However, the next second, Hong Zhengyang saw a man wearing a uniform from the industrial and commercial department behind Zhao Shun, and was immediately frightened.

"Hey, Brother Sun, why are you here? Come sit down in the room!" Hong Zhengyang said and was about to take out a cigarette.

"Hong Zhengyang, stop trying to get close to me!" The other party said with a straight face and a selfless look.

The man in uniform belongs to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and these individual businesses in the market in front of the station belong to his jurisdiction.

He pointed at Zhao Shun and asked, "This young man came to the bureau to complain, saying that he bought a fake puppy hair dryer from you. Is this the case?"

"Yes, yes, but Brother Sun, you also know that places like ours have always sold like this!" Hong Zhengyang said with an aggrieved look.

"Why, it's okay to sell fake goods, please refund the money quickly!" Brother Sun snorted coldly.

"Refund?" Hong Zhengyang suddenly looked reluctant.

In the market in front of this station, there are a lot of fake and shoddy goods for sale. Naturally, many consumers call 315 to complain, but in the end the results are basically nothing.

After all, whoever calls the 315 complaint phone number will know it, so it is basically useless.

Now people from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau came to visit in person, which surprised Hong Hengyu.

So Hong Zhengyang came closer, lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Sun, why do you come in person for such a small matter?"

"You think I want to come! It's not because you sell fake goods to others!" Brother Sun snorted coldly.

"I mean, your previous management was not so strict!" Hong Zhengyang said.

Brother Sun lowered his voice and continued: "This young man came to our bureau to complain, saying that he bought fake goods from you, and consumers came to visit him, so we can ignore it!

We also told him at that time, asking him to leave detailed instructions and we would give him feedback after we made the adjustments. Who knew he would just sit there and wait for our feedback results, and we could still drive people away. Can't?

As a result, this kid has been waiting all afternoon, and he even brought mineral water and bread. He seems to be here to fight a protracted war. Do you think we can handle it as soon as possible? If the bureau leaders saw it, I would have to walk around without food! "

"There is such a thing, how come we meet such a stupid young man!" Hong Zhengyang muttered.

"Don't worry about who is stupid or not. It's your fault if you sell fake goods to others. Please handle the matter quickly and don't cause us any more trouble!" Brother Sun said.

"Okay, you've already said something, why don't I return it to him?" Hong Zhengyang sighed helplessly, feeling that he could only admit that he was unlucky.

Hong Zhengyang walked up to Zhao Shun and said, "Bring the hair dryer, and I'll refund you the fifty yuan!"

"It's not possible to only refund fifty yuan, you have to pay three for one!" Zhao Shun said.

"If you fake it, you'll lose three. I'll give you face, right?" Hong Zhengyang suddenly became angry again.

"The "Consumer Rights and Interests Protection Law" stipulates that if an operator engages in fraudulent behavior in providing goods or services, he or she shall increase compensation for the losses suffered by the consumer according to the request of the consumer. The amount of the increased compensation shall be the price of the goods purchased by the consumer or the service received. Three times the cost.”

Zhao Shun continued calmly: "If you sell fake goods, it must be an act of fraud. Why don't you have to pay three for every fake!"

"Brother Sun, look, it's not that I don't want to deal with this matter. I am willing to return the goods to him, but he is unwilling!" Hong Zhengyang spread his hands.

Brother Sun also acted as peacemaker: "Young man, people are willing to return the goods to you. I think it's almost enough. You have nothing to lose, right?"

"That's not acceptable. I am safeguarding my legitimate rights and interests. My request to pay three for every fake holiday is also based on the law!" Zhao Shun said confidently.

"Legal basis? Well, since you have a legal basis, go to the court and sue me!" Hong Zhengyang also became more aggressive, and then continued: "In short, I will just say one thing here, you can return it, if you want a fake one, you will pay three for it, no way !”

Seeing Hong Zhengyang playing bad guy, Brother Sun took advantage of the situation and turned white. He said pleasantly: "Young man, you come to us, and we will help you mediate. The merchant is willing to return the goods.

But if you insist on compensating one for one and three for three, and what legal basis is there, then that is beyond the scope of our mediation. We are not a court. If you want to go through the legal process, you really have to go to court to litigate.

Young man, listen to my advice, it’s just a few dozen yuan, it’s not a big deal, why bother making such a big fuss? Let’s all take a step back and be harmonious to make money! "

"I am safeguarding my legitimate rights and interests in accordance with the law!" Zhao Shun shook his head firmly: "Since you are unwilling to pay three for one fake, then we will meet in court!"

"Okay, who is afraid of whom? If you have the guts, go to the court and sue me. Whoever doesn't sue will be my grandson!" Hong Zhengyang was also completely unforgiving.

Seeing Zhao Shun turn around and leave, Brother Sun also sighed helplessly: "I said Hong Zhengyang, can you save me some trouble? I'm here to help you mediate, now it's okay, you make people angry and leave. If you don’t, they will sue you! I can’t help you!”

"Then let him sue!" Hong Zhengyang said with a strong face: "Brother Sun, this kid is just trying to scare people! Are you going to sue for a fifty-yuan hair dryer? Do you really think I'm a fool?"

…

Two men in uniforms walked into Hong Zhengyang's store.

"What do you two want to buy?" Hong Zhengyang hurried forward to greet him.

"Are you the owner of this store?" the leader asked.

"I'm the boss." Hong Zhengyang nodded, but there was an unpleasant feeling in his heart. "

"Hello, we are from the District People's Court. We have a subpoena for you, please sign for it!" the leader said, taking out the document from his briefcase.

"Subpoena? Am I in trouble with a lawsuit?" Hong Zhengyang trembled with fright and quickly said, "Uncle policeman, I am a good citizen! I never dare to break the law!"

"We are not the police, we are from the court!" The other party had no choice but to continue to explain: "I didn't say you broke the law. This is just a general civil lawsuit, not a criminal lawsuit! If you really broke the law, we wouldn't be here to find you. It’s the procuratorate that’s going to prosecute you!”

"Civil lawsuit?" Hong Zhengyang showed a confused expression.

"Someone else sued you!" The other party explained in an easy-to-understand way.

"Who is it? Why did he sue me?" Hong Zhengyang said angrily.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that you sold fake goods, and the plaintiff took you to court and asked you to compensate!" the other party explained.

Hong Zhengyang was startled, and then thought of Zhao Shun.

"He really went to court to sue me for fifty yuan? Madman, this is simply a madman!" Hong Zhengyang immediately stayed on the spot.

He always thought that Zhao Shun was trying to scare people when he said he would sue him, but he didn't expect that Zhao Shun did not follow common sense and actually sued him!

"Comrade, sign your name here!" The court staff took out a document and asked Hong Zhengyang to sign it, interrupting his thoughts.

Hong Zhengyang signed his name on the document in a daze, and then asked, "Comrade, do I have to find a lawyer? I saw in TV dramas that every lawsuit requires a lawyer."

"Usually there is no need to find a lawyer for this kind of small lawsuit. Before the trial, we will conduct out-of-court mediation. If the two parties reach a settlement, there will be no need for a trial!" the other party explained.

…

Hong Zhengyang came to the court for the first time in his life. For ordinary people, going to court is definitely a major event in life.

The mediation room is not big, and there is nothing extra except a table and a few chairs.

Zhao Shun had been here a long time ago and was sitting there waiting for Hong Zhengyang.

After Hong Zhengyang saw Zhao Shun, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Brother, what a big deal it is. Do you need to come to court to sue me?"

"If I don't tell him, I will become a grandson!" Zhao Shun said sarcastically.

"My words are all angry, why should I take them seriously!" Hong Zhengyang said quickly.

At this time, the mediator said: "It seems that both of you have mediators, so let's stop talking nonsense and officially start mediation!"

"Okay, let's mediate!" Hong Zhengyang continued with an apologetic smile; "Brother, don't you just want triple compensation? I'll just pay it. I sold you this hair dryer for fifty yuan, and the triple compensation is one hundred and fifty yuan. The money, it adds up to two hundred yuan, I brought it all!”

Hong Zhengyang said that he was about to pay.

Zhao Shunze smiled slightly and said, "This calculation is wrong. The compensation you have to pay me is not two hundred yuan, but five hundred yuan!"

"Five hundred yuan! You can't just sit on the ground and raise the price when you get to the court!" Hong Zhengyang said immediately.

"I'm asking for five hundred yuan in compensation. I'm not raising the price on the ground, but I have a legal basis." Zhao Shun continued calmly: "The Consumer Rights Protection Law stipulates that if a fake is found, you will be compensated three for one, but there are other In an additional sentence, if the amount is less than five hundred yuan, it shall be five hundred yuan.

According to the three-for-one compensation, you have to pay me 150 yuan, which is less than 500 yuan, so I ask you to compensate me according to the amount of 500 yuan. I am doing this completely in accordance with the law. But I didn’t ask for a penny more! "

"Is there such a thing?" Hong Zhengyang looked at the mediator subconsciously.

The mediator could only nod his head: "There is indeed such an article in the Consumer Rights Protection Law!"

"Then what if I don't agree?" Hong Zhengyang's bad temper came back again.

"If either party does not accept mediation, they will have to wait to go to court." The mediator paused and then said, "Defendant party, I must remind you before that, the plaintiff's claim is There is indeed a legal basis.

And the plaintiff can also provide evidence that they purchased fake goods from you. When the trial comes, we will impose penalties in accordance with the law based on the evidence provided by the parties. "

"What you mean is that I will definitely lose!" Hong Zhengyang said.

"I didn't say that. I just said that the court will hear the case in accordance with the law, and the final penalty will be based on evidence." The mediator said.

Hong Zhengyang was not a fool. Judging from the mediator's attitude, he already felt that if he really went to court, he would definitely lose.

The next second, Hong Zhengyang's stubborn temper also rose, and he said, "Well, we will lose in the end anyway, so I won't accept mediation. If you want me to pay compensation, let the court decide!

Even if the court rules that I lose, I will only pay you five hundred yuan at most! It’s only five hundred yuan, I can afford the loss. But you have to spend money to litigate! Let's see who loses the most! "

In Hong Zhengyang's impression, a lawsuit must cost a lot of money, and most people must think so too.

So Hong Zhengyang planned to fight to the death, and in the worst case, he would go to court to file a lawsuit. The most he would have to pay was five hundred yuan, but Zhao Shun would definitely need a lot of money, and no one would have an easy life by then!

However, Zhao Shun smiled slightly and said: "I don't care, the prosecution fee is only fifty yuan anyway. I have also completed nine-year compulsory education, and I am not illiterate. I wrote the indictment myself. You should pay me five hundred yuan." I can still make a net profit of 450 yuan!"

"What? Fifty yuan? Is it so cheap to litigate?" Hong Zhengyang looked incredulous.

The mediator next to him had no choice but to explain: "The amount of litigation fees charged by the court is clearly stipulated by law. In civil litigation, if the amount does not exceed 10,000 yuan, a litigation fee of 50 yuan will be paid."

"It turns out that a lawsuit only costs fifty yuan!" Hong Zhengyang finally understood why Zhao Shun was not at all shy about going through legal procedures. It turns out that the cost of going through legal procedures is so low for you.

And you can still make four hundred and fifty yuan!

At that time, four hundred and fifty yuan was several days' wages for ordinary people, and it was worthwhile to litigate for this.

Now that he knew that he would definitely lose the lawsuit, and that the five hundred yuan was a guaranteed loss, and that if he continued to fight the lawsuit, he would not be able to fight to the death, Hong Zhengyang had no choice but to sigh helplessly, and then said: "Okay, five hundred yuan, I admit!"

…

Looking at the five hundred and fifty yuan in his hand, Zhao Shun felt his heart trembling.

This is the first business Zhao Shun has done after participating in the anti-counterfeiting training, and it can also be regarded as an internship.

Following the methods taught by the training teacher, Zhao Shun successfully completed his first business, which was considered a good start.

First, negotiate with the merchant to see if you can make a direct payment. After all, legal procedures are time-consuming. If you can get the money directly from the merchant, even if it is less, it is acceptable and you can save a lot. Time costs.

If the merchant does not cooperate, it can only be resolved through legal channels.

The training teacher also specifically taught how to litigate a lawsuit, including how to collect evidence, how to write an indictment, what procedures should be followed in court, what to do at each step of the process, etc.

So Zhao Shun followed the teacher's instructions and went through the legal process.

While waiting, Zhao Shun found an Internet cafe and squatted there, playing games every day. It costs six yuan to surf the Internet all night, plus mineral water and lunch boxes, which is only a dozen yuan a day.

Excluding these expenses, Zhao Shun still made a net profit of 300 yuan.

"I made three hundred yuan so easily. If I went to more than a dozen companies at the same time to crack down on counterfeiters, wouldn't I be able to earn thousands of yuan? The teacher is right, cracking down on counterfeiters can really make a fortune!"

Thinking of this, Zhao Shun carefully put the money into his pocket, and then went to find the next target.

…

Including the fifty yuan for selling the hair dryer, Hong Zhengyang paid a total of five hundred and fifty yuan.

After returning to the store, Hong Zhengyang was filled with nowhere to vent his depression. He has been selling fake products for so many years, and this is the first time he has encountered this kind of thing.

"If I had known that when I met such a stupid young man, I should have compensated him when he wanted to pay three for one! In that case, I would have paid him one hundred and fifty yuan, which would have saved three hundred and fifty yuan in losses. Where’s the money?”

When Hong Zhengyang was regretting it, another customer came to the door. It was a young man holding a bag who looked like he had just gotten off the train.

Although he was depressed, he still had to do business, so Hong Zhengyang quickly got up to greet the guests.

"Boss, how much does that hair dryer cost?" The young man pointed to the shelf, and what was on it was a puppy hair dryer!
