Chapter 1007 "Never Compromise with Fake Sellers"
Boss Ma's movements are really fast.
Just when Li Mu was busy supervising the preparations for the "Taobao First National Personal Webmasters Conference", the lawsuit group hired by Boss Ma had already helped more than two hundred sellers in the form of legal aid, and wrote a The joint indictment was submitted to the District People's Court where Muye Technology Co., Ltd. was registered.
According to rumors, the lawsuit group, on behalf of more than 200 sellers whose stores were closed by Taobao, sued Muye Technology on the grounds that Muye Technology "infringed on personal virtual property" and asked Muye Technology to release all the plaintiffs' seller YY accounts.
It is the first time that the District People's Court has received a civil lawsuit on the grounds of "infringing on personal virtual property". Before, no one has litigated Internet products as personal virtual property, so there is no precedent that can be used for reference. The work of the District Court The staff also felt a little tricky for a while.
The judges of the district court, called by the president, held a closed-door meeting to discuss the specific details of the lawsuit.
A presiding judge of the Commercial Tribunal in the Civil Court should be the direct person in charge of this case according to the procedure. He manages the cases and judges in the Civil Court, so he is also the one who is most stressed.
At the closed-door meeting, the presiding judge said cautiously: "Everyone, according to the regulations, our district court must give the other party a clear reply within seven working days whether to accept it or not, and this case not only has no similarities that can be learned from. This is a type of precedent, and it also involves the most powerful and most respected Huaxia Internet companies in China and even in the world. If we accept this case, it is very likely that Muye Technology will be brought to the forefront at once. This is a national concern. If the operation of the star enterprise is not good, it will have a great impact on our district court!"
The leaders of the other district courts are also at a loss. This case is really tricky. One side is a plaintiff group composed of more than 200 people, and the other is the most prestigious star enterprise in China. If the case is not accepted, more than 200 people. I don’t know what will happen; if it is accepted, it is not only equivalent to the court’s subjective acceptance of the “personal virtual property” statement of the plaintiff group, but also personally pushed this star enterprise to the forefront. If the operation is careless, the responsibility will be heavy.
At this time, a leader of the district court said: "Everyone, I have checked all the judicial records related to Muye Technology, and I have not found that Muye Technology has been involved in any judicial proceedings. What is certain is that Muye Technology It is not only a star enterprise, but also a very clean star enterprise, if our district court accepts this case, then the title of Muye Technology’s first judicial lawsuit will fall on our district court.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions froze.
Huaxia people pay the most attention to the first time in everything. If it is a good first time, it is okay to say, if it is a bad one, it may be a lifelong hatred.
Besides,
No one wants to take the initiative to smear star companies, which may have long-lasting and far-reaching adverse effects.
Everyone was in trouble all of a sudden, and everyone didn't want to go into this muddy water, but there was no way, who let Muye Technology be registered within the scope of the district court's functions, and the district court couldn't escape this case.
Everyone was silent for a while, and suddenly a judge who had a lot of research on the economy said: "How about we communicate with Muye Technology in advance, I don't think this case itself is a big deal, it's just that more than 200 plaintiffs want to get them back. The YY account of the YY account, Muye Technology is now a good time to become famous, it is really not guilty of getting involved in such a case, it is better to settle it directly out of court."
After speaking, the person added: "And don't forget the legal principles, although there is no specific precedent before this, but I personally feel that from the perspective of legal principles, the plaintiff's appeal is justified. , Although network assets are virtual, they also have their value and personal security. I think it is a matter of time before such virtual items are included in the category of personal property, so I personally feel that if Muye Technology is not willing to take a step back, seven After a few working days, we still have to accept the case and let Muye Technology become the defendant, otherwise once we reject the plaintiff’s appeal, then we are likely to become a negative teaching material in the future domestic virtual property protection law and related cases.”
The judge's statement has been recognized by everyone. If the district court today rejects the plaintiff's request on the grounds that the virtual property is not protected by the law, then once the virtual property is protected by the law in the future, it will become a negative teaching material. Will be forever negative teaching material.
All of the present are highly experienced law students with a keen sense of smell. Everyone knows that it is only a matter of time before virtual property is legally recognized, not a matter of right or wrong.
At this time, the chief judge of the Civil Division took the lead in breaking the silence and said, "It seems that if we continue to delay this case, we will basically be unable to avoid this case within seven days, and out-of-court reconciliation will also be an option. As long as it doesn't go to court, it will not have a big impact on Muye Technology, and I believe that the people of Muye Technology will also have a clear judgment."
The dean nodded and said, "That's it, let's contact Muye Technology privately first, tell them the situation of the case and the plaintiff's demands, and try to persuade them to solve the problem outside court. , is also Muye Technology's own choice, so we can't blame us."
...
Contacting Li Mu was quite difficult for the district court, and the district court could not directly communicate with Muye Technology through normal channels, so they went through a number of relationships, and finally passed the information to Li Ziwei, Li Mu's personal assistant. .
Li Ziwei felt that this incident had a great impact on Muye Technology, so after receiving the news, she immediately conveyed the news to Li Mu.
Li Mu actually knew about the news that more than 200 sellers jointly sued Muye Technology earlier than the district court, because there are undercover sellers placed by Taobao.com, power of attorney and other documents for the joint lawsuit. Several undercover sellers The sellers have also participated in it, so Li Mu already knew his behavior well from the very beginning when Boss Ma started to fuel the flames.
Li Mu can conclude that Boss Ma has been deeply involved now. Now it is not the more than two hundred sellers who are wrestling with Muye Technology, but Boss Ma who is wrestling with Muye Technology behind his back.
For Li Mu, the next thing to do is how to make Boss Ma win, and to win coolly.
In this regard, Master Lei gave his advice: "I think it is better to agree to an out-of-court reconciliation, and it is better not to go to court. On the one hand, it is for the reputation of Muye Technology, and on the other hand, it is necessary to beware of the arrival of Boss Ma. It would be disgusting if he took advantage of this opportunity to gain popularity."
Li Mu agreed: "If we really go through the litigation process, the whole process will be too long. I personally prefer to let Boss Ma win quickly."
Leader Lei asked Li Mu, "Mr. Li, do you have a suitable solution now?"
Li Mu smacked his lips and said, "There is one possible plan, that is, I will slap myself in the face."
Leader Lei smiled and asked, "What's the way to play?"
Li Mu said with a smile: "Let's release the news first, and say that I have heard about the joint lawsuit of more than 200 sellers, but Muye Technology will not make any compromises, and everything will be decided by the law."
After speaking, Li Mu said again: "The tougher my attitude, the more fighting spirit of Boss Ma. He will definitely put more energy into it. After the court officially accepts it, I will immediately let Muye Technology take the two hundred All the numbers of multiple sellers will be lifted, and no announcement will be made at that time, and no out-of-court settlement will be made.
Leader Lei nodded: "If you slap yourself in the face like this, Boss Ma will definitely have an illusion and make him think that he slapped you in the face."
Li Mu smiled and said, "This is what I want."
...
The district court soon received news from Muye Technology. It is said that the news also came from Li Mu himself. The content of the news is very simple, just one sentence: "Muye Technology will never compromise with fake sellers."
In a simple sentence, the possibility of an out-of-court settlement was completely blocked.
Li Mu thought very simply. If he wanted to dig the biggest hole for Boss Ma, he would have to feel wronged a little bit, and then he should be lifted first and then restrained, and let him enjoy himself first.
Faced with Li Mu's tough attitude, the leaders of the district court were extremely helpless, and they held another internal discussion meeting. They finally decided that since Li Mu was unwilling to compromise, and they had greeted them in advance, the only thing left was to accept the matter. There is a way to go.
It is a trend that virtual property is protected by law. Although there is no clear legal clause, anyone can guess the future direction of the law in this regard. The district court does not dare to do the opposite. Keep yourself abreast of trends and stay ahead of the curve.
Boss Ma's lawsuit team has been in the judicial circle for many years, and all kinds of relationships are very comprehensive, so I quickly heard the latest news from the district court. When I heard that Li Mu firmly rejected the district court's suggestion of "out-of-court reconciliation", Boss Ma was not surprised at all.
After competing with Li Mu for so long, Boss Ma thinks he knows Li Mu very well. In his opinion, although Li Mu is a standard doer, he is also a very conceited and dignified person. zero.
But the tougher Li Mu was, the more Boss Ma wanted to kill him. He had the mentality of a flat-headed brother, Honey Badger, who was not afraid of everything and would do it even if he followed his target to the ends of the earth.
However, after such a long period of competition, Boss Ma has changed from wanting to completely defeat Li Mu and replace him, to now only wanting to win a battle against Li Mu. This time, Boss Ma is extremely eager to win. .
