Rebirth of Fortune Soars

Chapter 348 Out of Court Settlement

"Then, let's discuss now whether it is worth the compensation." Lawyer Union indicated that his assistant, Assistant Lawyer Ron, held a document and handed it to the judge.

"This is the admission notice from Harvard, Stanford and Berkeley University. They all admitted my client and are willing to provide a full scholarship to my client." Union said, "This is enough to prove one thing, that is my client, He is very good, he can get admission letters from Harvard, Stanford, and Berkeley University when he is less than 15 years old this year. He can choose any one of these three top universities in the world to go to school and continue his studies.”

"Your Excellency, this is not enough to prove that the plaintiff has a reason to demand such a huge amount of compensation!" The lawyer representing the Portland Police Department immediately argued.

"Your Excellency, this is the current world ranking of China's top universities in the world, as well as the list of Harvard and other schools that have won the Nobel Prize with the school my client attended! We can easily find that Tsinghua University, where my client attended, has no No one has ever won a Nobel Prize." Lawyer Union said, "In Huaxia, my client was the top scorer in the college entrance examination and a gifted student of the Conservatory of Music. In Huaxia, he is already the most outstanding student. There is no better platform to improve yourself."

After careful comparison, the judge nodded.

"As for why the compensation of 5 million US dollars is proposed, it is because there are so many Nobel Prizes!" Lawyer Union said.

"Your Excellency, last year's Nobel Prize winner was only worth $1 million at most. He asked for $5 million, which is too much!" The lawyer representing the Portland police was anxious, "And, even if he came to the United States to study , and may not be able to win the Nobel Prize! This calculation is not fair.”

"Your Excellency, regarding the calculation of the bonus, I calculated it like this. The bonus of the Nobel Prize has been rising continuously, and my client is still young. It is certainly impossible for him to win the Nobel Prize now, but in the future, he will be able to get it. At least there is great hope, as far as his smart mind is concerned, he is very hopeful. I calculate according to the Nobel Prize 20 years later, it is almost 5 million US dollars! And if the defense lawyers come to the United States It’s true that you may not be able to get it, but if you don’t come, you will definitely not be able to get it!” Union said with a serious face, “It’s like Schrödinger’s cat, if you don’t come, how do you know you can’t get it.”

"But he can come at any time. My client did not cause any harm to him." The defense lawyer argued.

"No, he has already rejected. He has rejected all the admission letters. My client decided to consider whether to study in the United States after he becomes an adult. And when he becomes an adult, he will delay the most precious three years of his life. In these three years, a genius scientist may be born, who will change the world. In this way, 5 million US dollars is just a small number! Because of your actions, the most precious time of a scientist who may change the world has been delayed. Three years!" Union said with a serious face,

"So, Your Honor, I hope you can judge from this perspective."

"Ridiculous! This is simply ridiculous! No one can guarantee that they can change the world!" The defense lawyer almost roared.

"I'm only talking about possibility. My client is more likely than ordinary people. I think no one can deny this." Union said calmly.

The defense lawyers still wanted to argue, when the judge knocked down the gavel.

"Come here, both of you!" The judge summoned the two lawyers.

"For this matter, I suggest that you settle out of court." The judge said, "Such a large amount of compensation, I think, must be a large sum for the Portland Police Department. I suggest an out-of-court settlement, otherwise once the sentence is pronounced , I have to announce this matter, which will affect the reputation of the Portland Police Department and even the city of Portland. And for your client, it will also give people a suspicion of extortion. Therefore, I propose that you settle. However, it is less. I propose, $3 million! No more!"

Attorney Union smiled slightly.

This kind of lawsuit will definitely not be sentenced, and it will not continue. What he wanted was an out-of-court settlement. If you really want to fight, the final result may not necessarily be satisfactory. The judge has the right to modify the compensation. If there is a verdict, perhaps 1 million US dollars is the highest price.

If there is no judgment, he will accept the $3 million.

"3 million US dollars is still too high." The defense lawyer was a little annoyed.

"As far as this number is concerned, don't make this matter a big deal. I don't want this matter to become an international incident. Don't forget, he is a genius prodigy from China." The judge warned.

"Especially the economy of our city of Portland is not developed. I don't want this lawsuit to affect future international students studying in Portland, and also affect Chinese investment." The judge warned again.

As a judge, sentencing is to consider many aspects. Because his sentencing directly affects the sentencing of other cases later, and it will also affect the status of a city. Therefore, he must be cautious.

In this respect, he must be more inclined to Qin Feng.

Of course, this is also due to the fact that Qin Feng's background is too great, he has so much evidence, and he is not short of money. This kind of person, he will naturally give him a little sweetness.

"Let me discuss it with my client!" The defense lawyer had no choice but to go back to discuss with the Portland police.

After a lengthy discussion, there was a result.

"My client agreed to settle out of court!" the defense lawyer said helplessly.

"Your Excellency, my client also agrees to a settlement!" Lawyer Union smiled happily.

30% to 70%, he gets 70%, that is a profit of 900,000 US dollars. His total investment in this lawsuit was only tens of thousands of dollars, including his own expensive labor, but the harvest was 900,000 dollars.

This is a big gain.

"Thank you, Union!" Qin Feng was also very satisfied.

I can finally get 2.1 million US dollars in compensation. Very high! I came to the United States for a trip, and I didn’t spend a penny, but I made a lot of money. It’s not worth it.

"Congratulations, Mr. Qin!" Assistant lawyer Ron congratulated.

"Thank you for your help these days, Ron. Union, he is very good. I think he is very promising!" Qin Feng naturally did not forget to praise Ron who accompanied him to the exam.

"Well, after this time, I decided to hand over the law firm to him. I am just an investor and no longer participate in the daily management of the law firm." Union said.

"Ah? Why?" Qin Feng was taken aback.

"I am 50 years old this year. With this money, I can retire and enjoy life. And with the fame of this lawsuit, I believe Ron can do better. That way, as an investor , although I earn a little less, it is easier." Union explained with a smile.

Qin Feng came to a sudden.

"Then congratulations on your happy retirement life!" Qin Feng smiled.

"Of course, congratulations to Ron, you now have your own law firm!" Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin, please take care of me in the future!" Ron nodded with a smile.
