It's no wonder that the vice president would say such extremely paranoid words.
Everything about Bi Jingnie Ji was advocated by him.
From ordering plagiarism, to forcing the release of the content online regardless of public opinion, to ignoring Ye Chen's ultimatum in front of the media.
All that.
He is the one who makes all the decisions!
so.
Once "Nie Fan" disappears.
As the person who makes the final decision, he is bound to suffer a lot. This problem cannot be solved by just pushing Huang Wei, the head of the game department, out to take the blame.
If you stick your head out, you will get a knife; if you shrink your head, you will also get a knife.
He had absolutely no choice.
Whether Nirvana took the initiative to remove itself from the shelves or Nirvana lost the lawsuit, the result was the same for him.
In this case, he certainly would not be willing to sit and wait for death. Even if the possibility of Nirvana winning the case is really zero, he will have to fight to the death!
But the head of the legal department is not like that.
Under the vice president's extreme words.
His brows were twisted into a "川" shape, and his face looked frighteningly gloomy.
"Boss Zhou, there is no need to fight this lawsuit. I know Lao Liu, but you know him too. When he said that, his meaning was very clear. He was advising us not to play against Qianlong Games anymore because we have no chance of winning. Of course, this is just Lao Liu's one-sided statement. We will definitely not surrender like this, so we have to confirm whether the situation is true or not!"
The head of the legal department continued, "If the situation is true, our legal department can no longer fight this lawsuit. What we should do is to find a way to settle it amicably, such as communicating with Qianlong Games, and taking the initiative to remove the game from the shelves and provide compensation to make them withdraw the lawsuit, or find a way to cooperate with Qianlong Games and make them withdraw the lawsuit as a condition! If we force the fight, it will undoubtedly be a self-humiliation, and our legal department will be dragged down from the altar by the Royal Court Law Firm, and become a stepping stone for their fame! Choose the lesser of two evils. Can't Mr. Zhou even weigh this?"
"Lao Kang, you-" The vice president's paranoid look remained.
But he didn't wait for the words to come out.
The head of the legal department interrupted him, "Mr. Zhou, all decisions of the legal department are made for the overall situation. The consequences of private settlement and losing the case are completely different. In addition, let me say one more thing, Mr. Zhou, you cannot interfere with the legal department. If you insist on fighting this lawsuit, then I can only report the situation to Mr. Ma!"
The vice president was choked by the head of the legal department's blunt remarks.
He raised his finger and pointed at the head of the legal department.
In the end, I couldn't say anything.
But the panic on his face was clearly visible.
It was not his turn not to panic, because as long as the Ministry of Justice insisted on fighting this lawsuit, he at least had hope of turning the situation around, even if the hope was not big.
But if the Ministry of Justice surrenders without a fight, he will be left with no way out!
After all, whether it is the voluntary removal or being forced to remove the products after losing the lawsuit, Tencent has to give an explanation to the public.
And this explanation must be from him!
Facing the vice president's anger.
The head of the legal department expressed his understanding, and even understood why the vice president was so obsessed with insisting on fighting this lawsuit.
Just because he understood didn't mean he agreed. He wouldn't ignore the overall situation and the reputation of their legal department just to preserve the vice president's hope of a comeback.
If this lawsuit fails, the reputation of Nanshan Pizza Hut may still exist, even if the deterrent effect will be reduced. However, if the lawsuit is filed and the company loses, the Ministry of Justice will fall from its pedestal, which is certainly unacceptable to the company.
"Mr. Zhou, actually... what I said about finding a way to get Qianlong Game to withdraw the lawsuit is just a one-sided wishful thinking. As for whether Qianlong Game is willing to accept a private settlement, this is still a question. If Qianlong Game insists on suing to the end, our legal department will have to accept it no matter how much we don't want to!" said the head of the legal department.
"I hope you understand that if Nirvana ends, it will mean the end of Tencent Games' hegemony, and the dynasty that Tencent Games has spent so many years consolidating will also be disintegrated!
Throw down this sentence.
The vice president looked extremely unhappy and strode out of the office.
He regretted it!
I regret not listening to Huang Wei's repeated persuasion.
I thought that as long as Huang Wei took the blame, I would have no worries.
But I never expected that variables would appear again and again, and in the end I actually led myself into a ditch...
He really regrets it.
In the office of the head of the Ministry of Justice.
The person in charge left after the vice president left.
Without waiting for the core members of the Legal Department to speak, he waved his hand and dismissed the other party.
Originally, at the beginning, their office meeting was centered around the fraud incident of Ye Chen's mother-in-law Liu Xueqin. They wanted to take the opportunity to add fuel to the public opinion, thereby making Ye Chen deeply trapped in the quagmire of negative public opinion, so as to make more preparations for the lawsuit that is expected to come soon. After all, Ye Chen, who is trapped in the quagmire of negative public opinion and unable to extricate himself, will definitely affect the perception of the court, which will undoubtedly further benefit them.
But now.
As the court staff avoided his phone calls and Lao Liu's attitude and words came out.
The head of the legal department knew that it was completely unnecessary to add fuel to the public opinion incident involving Ye Chen's mother-in-law.
Because no matter how much the court dislikes Ye Chen, no matter how bad their impression of him is, facing the pressure from above, the court's choice is unquestionable.
After dismissing a group of people.
In the office, the door was closed again.
The head of the legal department thought about it again and again.
In the end, I dialed the mobile phone number of Ma Huatian, the head of Tencent.
After reporting all the situations, Ma Huatian on the other end of the phone fell into silence.
After a long time.
An angry voice came from the receiver of the phone, "Is there really no chance of winning?"
The head of the legal department knew that the other party's anger was not directed at him.
He nodded and said solemnly, "If the situation is true, the possibility of winning the case is very slim!"
"Damn it, Zhou Zhengyu, this bastard, this bastard!" The roar of anger rang out.
The head of the legal department thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Ma, you can't blame Mr. Zhou entirely. Everything he did was for the benefit of Tencent. From his perspective, everything he did was completely understandable!
From the beginning to the end, the head of the legal department still did not tell Tencent's youngest vice president Zhou Zhengyu that he was determined to fight a lawsuit with Qianlong Games.
Because he knew once he said it.
Vice President Zhou Zhengyu's executive career at Tencent has basically come to an end.
Well...even if he knew and didn't say it, Zhou Zhengyu's career as an executive at Tencent had already begun the countdown.
Find out whether the situation in the court is true at all costs, quickly, it must be quick! Once it is confirmed to be true, immediately contact the Royal Court Law Firm to communicate, no matter what conditions are paid, we must strive to make Qianlong Games withdraw the lawsuit! The head of Tencent on the other end of the phone gave an extremely majestic order.
"Okay, Mr. Ma, I will start preparing for this right away!
