Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Hearing that Bao Zixuan actually asked them to go to the Heiyun Denmark branch made KK Christison very uncomfortable. After all, this is Denmark, and this guy really thinks he is a green onion. Unexpectedly, the Billund Court agreed. This made him feel incredible and at the same time, he felt that this case was more dangerous than good.

But after the lawyer heard the news, he felt very good and even felt that he had a chance to win.

The lawyer smiled and said: "Mr. Christison, this is definitely a good thing for us. Although it appears to be a sign of weakness, the court represents the credibility of a country; Denmark is a small and sovereign country. Bao Zixuan completely ignored the judicial process. What will the court think?"

"Another point is that it is compensation in disguise, or to confuse the opponent. After all, LEGO is a Danish company and the largest taxpayer in Billund; so deep down, it must be more biased towards us. But one thing has to be admitted. Bao Zixuan’s personal financial resources are too strong and his influence is too great.”

"If it cannot be properly resolved or the other party is satisfied, then the whole of Denmark will be affected. Although I don't want to admit it, we took the initiative to provoke this incident. After all, the cooperation between the two parties has been good before; and Heiyun has never defaulted on any fees. .”

"But Lego also has its own confidence, which is the issue of unified brand management. Although the building blocks in the Asian and American markets will also be marked with the Lego LOGO, they will all be marked as manufactured by Heiyun Toy Company; this is a serious damage to the Lego brand image. That’s why we want to take back the authorization.”

"After all, Lego's bloodline must be pure. I believe the court will consider this issue."

"What we are doing now is just to make Bao Zixuan look good; no matter how he says that he is also the richest man in the world and can avoid offending, no one is willing to fall out with him; the same goes for the Danish government."

After hearing the lawyer's analysis, KK Christison felt much better. As long as the authorization can be withdrawn, it doesn't matter if you feel aggrieved. It's no big deal to give Zu Bao Zixuan face now, after all, where does the opponent's strength lie?

At ten o'clock in the morning the next day, the three parties appeared in the conference room of the Danish branch of Heiyun Group on time!

Because of Lego, the Danish branch was not placed in Copenhagen; after all, the country only has a population of 5 million, so it doesn’t matter where it is placed.

Because Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan are involved, Hu Yuze, who has a background in Hong Kong, naturally becomes one of the persons in charge of the pre-trial mediation. He is also the host and will also act as a translator.

In fact, this is also an attitude to the rich man Bao. Denmark will never deliberately favor Lego just because it is a local company. You can rest assured that the judicial system is absolutely fair.

Hu Yuze first said: "Lego is suing Heiyun Group, hoping to take back the absolute authorization of Lego's products in Asia and the Americas. We are now conducting pre-trial adjustments. If the adjustment is successful, there will be no need to occupy judicial resources; if the adjustment is unsuccessful, the legal A fair sentence will also be given.”

"Now it is up to me to present the case. During this period, I hope both parties can cooperate."

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Hu Yuze continued: "Lego Company requires Heiyun Group to give up the absolute authorization of Lego's products in Asia and America. I would like to ask if the two parties have signed a contract before."

This cannot be faked at all. The lawyer representing Lego said directly: "There is a contract signed. But..."

Before he could finish speaking, Hu Yuze continued: "Whether Heiyun Group has performed in accordance with the contract, whether it has intentionally defaulted on funds, or other violations of the contract."

This question made KK Christison very angry; what did the Billund Court mean? He actually found such a person to preside over this pre-trial mediation meeting. Isn't this deliberately biased towards the Black Cloud Group?

But now that he has been put on fire, he can only answer bravely.

Lego's lawyer said very reluctantly: "No."

Hu Yuze still did not give him a chance, but continued: "Then the question is, since the two parties have signed a contract before and have not violated the agreement; I want to know what is the basis for Lego to withdraw the authorization from the Asian and American markets."

At this moment, KK Christison and Lego's attorney were very angry when they saw Hu Yuze, and they wanted to beat him up. There is no such thing as pre-trial adjustment, it is clearly biased in favor of the other party; but what they said is not wrong, and it is difficult to refute.

And pretrial conditioning doesn’t mean anything. The main thing is that I hope everyone can take a step back and solve the problem in advance.

He was not allowed to speak for several times, and now it was finally his turn to state his point of view. This made the Lego attorney very unhappy, and he felt that his strength was useless.

You must know that the previous legal counsel felt that it was not appropriate to sue Heiyun Group directly; it was not in the interests of the Lego Company, and he had been fired for opposing the employer. The representative lawyer was thinking about flexing his muscles in front of the new boss, but he couldn't let this opportunity pass him by.

Lego's attorney said very formally: "There are many unreasonable things in the contract that was originally signed. Although Heiyun Group has been complying with it for so many years, it cannot be denied that Lego did not get all the benefits that belong to it. The share is too small, and There’s no annual limit on the contract, that’s all the problem.”

"As a large company, Lego is naturally responsible for its global customers. Therefore, the building blocks produced must be produced in factories owned by Lego."

"The building blocks produced in the Americas and Asia will be printed with "Made by Heiyun Toys Company", which is not conducive to the globalization strategy of the Lego brand. Therefore, we hope that Heiyun Group can return the authorization to Lego headquarters. To this end, we are willing to do Pay appropriate compensation.”

"Re-bidding will be conducted for the agency rights in Asia and Europe; under the same conditions, Heiyun Group has priority."

Listening to the statement that was not a legitimate reason at all, the Billund court was speechless for a while. Even if the contract you signed before is unreasonable, you signed it willingly, and no one forced you to sign it.

Now we see that Heiyun Group has made Lego bricks bigger and stronger, and even the market sales in Asia and the Americas have already surpassed Europe. Such a big piece of cake, naturally I want to take it back. But it is too shameless and seriously damages business reputation.

Adjustability will continue, after all, for Denmark; we don’t want this matter to be exposed. This seriously damages the country's image and may even affect other domestic companies.

Hu Yuze: "I don't know what Heiyun needs to say."

Bao Zixuan glanced at him, and Heiyun's attorney said very formally: "Although I am Danish, the behavior of Lego Company is really not in line with the overall quality of Danish people. Business standardization is the prerequisite for a country to continue to develop. Otherwise, What else can be used as a constraint? The signing of the contract and its implementation for so many years shows that a rule has been formed that both parties will abide by."

"Now that LEGO has seen that the Black Cloud Group is making profits in the Asian and American markets, it wants to take back what it has licensed before. This is not the Middle Ages, but a modern society; Denmark has such a company, which is simply a national shame. .”

"The reason why Lego bricks are so popular in the European and American markets is that it has a lot to do with the recognition that its products are excellent; but how much effort Heiyun Group has put into this and negotiating with seemingly unrelated companies; the purpose is to get the products How much effort has been put into the appearance authorization; haven’t you seen it at all! The Lego headquarters just sits back and enjoys the success, without thinking about the direction in which the company will develop in the future.

"So we don't want to say anything more. After all, the final verdict is a matter for the court."

Although the statement had little to do with this case, it made the Danes at the scene blush after hearing it. What's wrong with Lego? They ignore business reputation for profit. This is discrediting the entire country.

KK Christison no longer cared about so much at this moment, but said directly: "It's useless to say so much. My point is very simple; 2 billion US dollars to recover the interests that originally belonged to Lego; if we don't agree, then we can only See you in court.”

At this moment, he seemed like a clown, which was annoying to watch. Bao Zixuan felt that this matter was unusual and should not be that simple. If it were the Christison family alone, they would never have the guts to take action with the Black Cloud Group; there must be other forces behind it to support or promote it.

The intelligence department has not yet investigated many details and needs to be strengthened.

If the Christison family alone were to put pressure on them, they would definitely not dare to be so arrogant. And it comes up to 2 billion US dollars. Lego has indeed made a lot of money over the years, but it will still be very heartbreaking to spend 2 billion US dollars. But at this moment, there was no hesitation at all, indicating that someone was paying for them.
