Regardless, it’s a good thing that the negotiations ended sooner than everyone involved expected. After signing the contract tomorrow, Southern Commercial Bank can directly reverse the current situation. They can even stand with Dulin and sue the Imperial Bank for infringement of their "patent rights."
This is no joke, and Southern Commercial Bank can still escape from Dulin's prosecution. They have suddenly changed from perpetrators to victims, and they will find some positivity in the face of social and public opinion issues. evaluate.
You might not have thought anything of it when you saw Du Lin on the news before, but when you and Du Lin were on the news together, you could feel how those people felt. A senior reporter said that Du Lin will always be a weak person. No matter how much money he has or what his status is, people can only see him being persecuted again and again. Then there are those people in society who may not even have enough food and clothing. The overwhelming sympathy of the people will win him the greatest support from public opinion.
It's the same this time. The Southern Commercial Bank and the Imperial Central Bank are many times more powerful than Du Lin, so Du Lin is a weakling. His status as a weakling has given Du Lin a lot of support from the public. In particular, the positive image he has maintained has attracted a large number of middle-class people to stand on Dulin's side. This is a very troublesome thing. Each weak disgust will not bring any tragic consequences, but when these disgusts accumulate into a force that cannot be ignored, the continued cost will gradually become apparent.
Now, the problem is solved.
Standing outside the restaurant, Du Lin chatted with Nadiya for a few words and then left. He didn't get much rest all day today. He only slept for about two hours at night. He was physically and mentally exhausted. He needed to rest now.
Early the next morning, the executive director of the Imperial Bank woke up from his sleep. People always have many problems when they get older. They sleep lightly and wake up early. He jogged in the fitness room for a while in his sportswear, took a shower, put on clean clothes and sat in the restaurant to enjoy the rare comfort of the day.
A pot of scented tea without too many petals. The doctor advised him not to drink stimulating drinks such as coffee. He doesn't even drink much wine now. There are also some pure wheat pressed and baked wheat cakes with no oil. He needs to prepare them for him. Responsible for your own cardiovascular system.
At his age and with such a prominent status, what he pursues is no longer simple enjoyment, but to allow himself to live a few more days. Money, power, women, he has already enjoyed what he needs to enjoy. From now on, he understands that the most enjoyable thing in life is time, the time that he once squandered.
Before he opened a newspaper and took a closer look at the noteworthy news this morning, his expression changed drastically. He threw the teacup he had just picked up on the table, stood up, walked to the phone, picked it up, dialed a number, and asked angrily, "What's going on?"
The person who answered the phone put the newspaper in his hand on the cabinet and said with a wry smile, "It seems that Dulin has reached some agreement with Nanshan Commercial Bank that we don't know about..." He turned his head and glanced at today's Imperial Daily. The headline on the front page made him feel as if his body had been hollowed out - "Rivalry", and the subtitle was "Dulin withdraws content of infringement lawsuit against Nanshan Commercial Bank". The content of this title is just like what it means on paper. Nanshang Bank is now free from the trouble of the lawsuit and has transferred all the pressure to the Imperial Central Bank. The current lawsuit is no longer a group show. There are only two opponents, Du Lin and the Imperial Bank. central bank.
At the same time, the Southern Commercial Bank and Dulin must have reached an invisible deal to a certain extent. It is even possible that the Southern Commercial Bank will stand on Dulin's side and put pressure on the Imperial Bank of China when necessary, including using social resources. Making the Reichsbank look even uglier, and the eventual push for three lawsuits.
In the past, the Imperial Central Bank had attacked the bankers of the Southern Commercial Bank. This hatred that almost drove them into bankruptcy and liquidation was not easy to let go. In addition, many business giants in the South coveted the closed market in the North and had no desire for the Empire. Dissatisfaction with some of the central bank’s investment behaviors is very likely to evolve into a large-scale vicious competition. Even if this possibility is less than 1 in 10,000, it is definitely a great danger.
The old man's chest rose and fell violently, and neither of them spoke. After a while, the old man's chest became less obvious, and then he took out a breath and said, "I want to know what they did, and you want to know what they did?" Give the council a solution, I don't want to hear the same old stuff, give me something new."
All the newspapers were reporting the news all day long. Nan Commercial Bank had already made two preparations before sending out the negotiation team. If they could negotiate with Du Lin, they would quickly let the public know that Nan Commercial Bank was also a victim, but they Not participating in the lawsuit between Dulin and the central bank ensures that they are in the best position. No matter who wins or loses, they will not lose anything. If they can't reach an agreement, then they will promote another set of things, such as Dulin's dark history, and "popularize the law" for the general public to let them know that Dulin is untenable in the lawsuit and that he is a Patent trolls.
Then, together with the Reichsbank, Dühring was forced back to the negotiating table.
Yes, they don't intend to completely break up with Du Lin, because it's not worth it. No one can even guarantee the final direction of this lawsuit, so they need Du Lin to return to the negotiating table to continue talking and finally win. something they want.
Du Lin's cooperation gave the Southern Commercial Bank a great advantage. After the passive became active, some people within the Southern Commercial Bank also had some new ideas, such as helping Du Lin suppress the Imperial Bank of China, and people with this idea also more and more.
The reason is simple. If we don't consider other invisible means and just talk about commercial competition, Dulin is not a rival of the Southern Commercial Bank at all. Likewise, the Southern Commercial Bank is not a rival of the Imperial Bank of China. Instead of helping the Imperial Bank out of its predicament and then riding on their own heads, it would be better to help a young man who is destined to be no match for them to contain the Imperial Central Bank. They only need to pay a small price. At that time, you can tear off part of the territory of the Imperial Central Bank and swallow it, and take a step back to ensure that your own interests are not infringed. This is a good situation.
At ten o'clock in the morning, one hour before the deadline given by Dulin, Angelio led a team of lawyers to Dulin's estate. He left it to the lawyers to review the contract text to see if there were any additions or deletions. Yes, they big shots were chatting in the garden.
"Your publicity campaign is very fierce. Many newspapers reported the news of our cooperation today." The two stood chatting in Dulin's garden. Nadia was resting under an umbrella not far away. She was a little bit Haggard.
Angelio laughed loudly, "Don't you think this is good? We have expressed our attitude and at the same time put a lot of pressure on the Imperial Bank. I believe you should be very interested."
In some respects, this is indeed the case. The sudden change in the stance of the Southern Commercial Bank made the Imperial Bank more passive, but this is not entirely good news. If pressed, the Imperial Central Bank may change its strategy, and Dulin will face more unknown risks. But things have already happened, and it is completely useless to talk about it now. Du Lin knew that he had been cheated, and he could not blame anyone for this. He also drank some wine last night and forgot or did not think of asking Nan Commercial Bank not to announce the matter for the time being.
Du Lin snorted, "I don't care about this. I want to know when Nadia can work for me and how much it will cost to buy out her contract."
Angelio couldn't help but turn around and look at Nadia. He walked up to Du Lin and asked an unrelated question, "Do you like older women?", looking at Du Lin's somewhat unkind eyes, he said, Angelio quickly explained, "Sorry, that's not what I meant. I just think she is lucky to meet someone who thinks highly of her."
"Actually, her contract has not been renewed since she got married. Except for senior partners, she is simply acting as the head of the public relations department in the name of a consultant. She does not preside over daily work. Her daily task is to train those young people. "
Angelio said a bit too much, but he was actually trying to show his kindness, which he didn't originally intend to do. But after returning home, he felt that Du Lin was a good person. First of all, Du Lin's concession stabilized the matter and earned him high praise from the board of directors. Second, he passed the news back to the family, and his grandfather also praised him for his contribution to the family. His outstanding contribution made him very happy. He was one step closer to becoming Mr. Du Plessis, leading his brothers and sisters. Coupled with his careful consideration, it was actually a good thing to let Nadiya out after he hurt her. At least he would not be stabbed by this woman at critical moments in the future, so he decided to have a good talk with Du Lin.
Nadiya's status in the Southern Commercial Bank seems to be extremely noble, but in fact it is in jeopardy. Her unwillingness to do things that exceed her own limits makes her less and less valued. Nowadays, those young girls are very brave. In order to get the opportunity for a salary increase, to become a partner, and to enter the management, there is nothing they dare not do. Moreover, Nadia is also "older". This is why the Hill sisters are not as capable as Nadia but are able to hold the position of head of the public relations department of the Imperial Bank of China. They do not need to have too many abilities, they only need to be able to spare. Just go out.
"This is my business. I don't want to discuss this..." Dulin shook his head and refused to discuss this topic further, but he clearly felt that Angelio's attitude had changed. He hesitated. I have already tricked this guy, so why not trick him again, "I have a big business plan in the near future, and I may need to borrow some funds from your bank for a short period of time. Are these operations difficult?"
