"We love Pokemon the most!" The players below the stage shouted in unison. Although some of them were just there to make up the numbers, most of them were Pokemon's most loyal fans.
"I understand everyone's intentions!" Boss Jia nodded and said emotionally, "Everyone, don't worry. There will be no changes to the release plan of Pokemon's Myriad Variants. Today, there will still be a limited release of 3,000 Myriad Variants and Pokemon Kim Silver game cartridges."
"Mr. Jia, why do you have to be so brave? Looks like we'll have to meet in court! " The lawyer at the side snorted. Then, all the players below the stage glared at the lawyer at the same time.
Facing thousands of angry eyes, the lawyer was frightened and couldn't help but take a few steps back. He suddenly realized that he had angered the crowd.
However, the lawyer thought about it again. The law was on his side, so he regained his confidence.
"No, I don't think we'll meet in court!" Boss Jia shook his head and said, "Since our cutest players want to play our game, then the Daqian will fulfill our players' dreams even if we have to sell everything we have. This is the Daqian's promise to the players. We'll satisfy your greedy desires!"
"What do you mean by that?" The lawyer was stunned.
"Mr. Tanaka, can I trouble you to come up for a moment?" Boss Jia looked at one of the guests in the front row and asked. Mr. Tanaka obviously didn't expect Boss Jia to call him. He was a little surprised, but he still went up on stage.
"Mr. Tanaka! I didn't expect you to come too! "The lawyer actually knew Mr. Tanaka.
"Mr. Junteng, I haven't seen you for many years. You're still as elegant as ever!" Mr. Tanaka nodded and recognized the lawyer.
"It's great that the two of you know each other. In that case, Mr. Tanaka's identity as the senior manager of the United States branch of Mitsubishi Bank shouldn't be doubted, right?" Boss Jia said.
"Of course, I'm also one of the lawyers representing Mitsubishi Bank!" It turned out that this lawyer was really bad * ss. However, Lawyer Zheng Teng didn't understand why Jia Yapeng brought Lawyer Zheng Teng, a banker, up when he was talking about a copyright lawsuit. What did he want to do?
"Mr. Tanaka, may I ask if our Daqian Group's account in Mitsubishi Bank still has a deposit of 1 billion USD?" Boss Jia said lightly.
"Yes!" Tanaka Nakaichi said without hesitation. Of course, if he had a deposit of 1 billion USD, Tanaka Nakaichi would hesitate for a while. He might even ask his secretary.
But at this time, the Daqian Group's international account with Mitsubishi Bank had more than 3 billion US dollars in savings. Tanaka, of course, wouldn't hesitate.
"Then I'll have to trouble Mitsubishi Bank to transfer this one billion USD to Nintendo's account!" Boss Jia said calmly.
"What?!"
"What?!"
Tanaka Nakaichi and Zheng Teng's eyes widened at the same time. At the same time, they wondered if Boss Jia had said the wrong number. This was 1 billion USD!
"That's right. If I remember the contract correctly, as long as I pay the 1 billion USD penalty, this contract will be voided. I can then redeem my Pokemon!" Boss Jia looked at Tanaka Nakaichi and said lightly.
"Yes … yes … yes … that's … that's right!" Zheng Teng's lawyer stuttered.
"That's fine. I'll go to Mitsubishi Bank to do the procedures later. Then, I'll have to trouble your bank to transfer the 1 billion USD today. From now on, Daqian and Nintendo will have nothing to do with each other!" Boss Jia's tone didn't have any anger or reluctance. He even urged the bank to transfer the money quickly.
Zheng Teng's lawyer was completely dumbfounded. He had been a lawyer for so long and had fought so many lawsuits with so many companies. He had seen so many big scenes, but this was the first time he had seen a scene like this.
This was a 1 billion USD penalty. If this had happened ten years ago, this amount would have been the largest in the world.
This was an amount that no company could afford. If they didn't appeal to the Supreme Court, they wouldn't be able to settle the case even if they dragged on for years. Yet, the Daqian had paid it so quickly!
Zheng Teng's lawyer was really dumbfounded. He suddenly felt that his lifetime of experience wasn't enough.
"Zheng Teng's lawyer! Are you listening to me? "In the end, it was Boss Jia who woke Zheng Teng up from his stupor!
"Yes, I'm here …" Zheng Teng said blankly.
"I've paid the money. Does that mean the contract is voided?" Boss Jia asked.
"Hey … hey …"
"If the contract is voided, does that mean my Pokemon can be sold anywhere? Nintendo won't have any right to ban me anymore?" Boss Jia asked again.
"Hey … hey …" One billion USD was already paid. What else could Nintendo say?
"That's good. Thank you, Zheng Teng's lawyer, for coming here!" This was 1 billion USD. Boss Jia could even say thank you.
"Hey … hey …" Zheng Teng's lawyer finally came to his senses. Then, he realized that he didn't have any reason to stay here any longer.
Therefore, Zheng Teng hurriedly said goodbye and left the stage. He didn't want to stay here for another minute.
As for Manager Tanaka, after saying goodbye, he hurriedly left the stage and went straight back to the bank.
A transfer of 1 billion USD required a lot of paperwork. He had to go back to the bank to prepare.
All this time, only Boss Jia was left on the stage.
"Chairman Jia, is the Daqian really going to pay 1 billion USD to Nintendo?"
Zheng Teng wasn't the only one who was shocked. All the players in the audience were stunned when they heard that Boss Jia was really going to pay 1 billion USD to Nintendo. This was an amount that they couldn't imagine.
When the lawyer and the banker left, some of the players finally reacted. A young man asked in disbelief.
"Of course!" Boss Jia nodded. "People have to pay the price for their immaturity. I signed the contract myself. Since there's an irreparable loophole, I can only pay the price for my mistakes when I was young! "
"But that's 1 billion USD!" The player couldn't help but say, "Sir, I'm also a law student. According to my knowledge and experience, if you were to fight a lawsuit with Nintendo, you would have your own advantages. Even if you lose the lawsuit, it's impossible for you to pay such a huge amount of 1 billion USD. At most, 500 million USD would be enough. After all, Nintendo is suspected of banning Pokemon! "
"You said that the lawsuit would last for at least a few years. In that case, the cute players in front of me, won't you be able to see Pokemon for a few years?"
"For the gamers who love Pokemon to be able to play the game that you love and be with your beloved companions, what is a billion USD?" Boss Jia smiled as he looked at the gamers below the stage and said gently.
