"Then, let''s discuss now whether it is worth compensation." Lawyer Younian motioned that his assistant Ron, the assistant lawyer, took a document and handed it to the judge.
"This is the admission notice from Harvard, Stanford and Berkeley. They all accepted my client and are willing to provide full scholarships to my client." Eugene said, "this is enough to prove that my client is very excellent. He can get admission letters from Harvard, Stanford and Berkeley University when he is less than 15 years old. He can choose any of the three top universities in the world to go to school and continue his study. "
"Your honor, this is not enough to prove that the plaintiff has reason to claim such a huge amount of compensation!" The lawyer representing the Portland police immediately argued.
"Your honor, this is the world ranking of the world''s top universities in China, as well as the list of Nobel prizes won by schools such as Harvard and my client''s schools! We can easily find that none of my client''s Tsinghua University has won the Nobel Prize. " Lawyer Younian said, "in China, my client is the top student in the super Full Score college entrance examination and a talented student in the Conservatory of music. In China, he is already the most outstanding student, and he can''t get a better platform to improve himself."
The judge nodded under careful comparison.
"As for why the compensation of US $5 million is proposed, it is because there are so many Nobel prizes!" Lawyer Eugene said.
"Your honor, last year''s Nobel Prize winner, the maximum is $1 million. He''s asking for five million dollars, too much! " The representative lawyer of Portland police was worried, "moreover, even if he came to the United States to study, he may not be able to win the Nobel prize! This calculation is unfair. "
"Your honor, I calculated the bonus like this. The prize money of the Nobel Prize has risen continuously, and my client is still young. He is certainly unlikely to win the Nobel Prize now, but he can get it in the future. At least there is great hope, as far as his clever mind is concerned, it is very promising. According to the Nobel Prize 20 years later, it''s almost $5 million! If there are defense lawyers, they may not be able to get them when they come to the United States, but if they don''t come, they certainly can''t get them! " Eugene looked serious. "It''s like Schrodinger''s cat. How do you know you can''t get it if you don''t come."
"But he can come anytime. My client did him no harm. " The defense lawyer pleaded.
"No, he has refused. He refused all the offers. My client decided to consider whether to study in the United States when he became an adult. When he reaches adulthood, he will delay the most precious three years of his life. In these three years, perhaps a talented scientist will be born, which will change the world. In this way, $5 million is just a small number! Because of your actions, you have delayed the most precious three years for a scientist who may change the world! " Eugene said solemnly, "so, your honor, I hope you can sentence from this angle."
"Ridiculous! This is ridiculous! No one can guarantee that he will change the world! " The defense lawyer almost roared.
"I''m talking about possibility. My client is more likely than ordinary people. I think no one can deny this. " Eugene said calmly.
The defense lawyer still wanted to argue when the judge knocked down the mallet.
"You two come here!" The judge summoned two lawyers.
"What about this matter? I suggest you settle out of court." The judge said, "so much compensation, I think, must be a large number for the Portland police department. I suggest an out of court settlement, otherwise once the sentence is pronounced, I must make it public, which will have an impact on the reputation of the Portland police department and even the city of Portland. For your client, it will also give people a suspicion of blackmail. So I suggest you reconcile. But the money is less. I propose $3 million! No more! "
Lawyer Eugene smiled.
This kind of lawsuit will certainly not be sentenced and will not go on. What he wants is an out of court settlement. If you really want to fight, the final result may not be satisfactory. The judge has the right to amend the compensation. If you really want to sentence, maybe $1 million is the highest price.
If the sentence is not pronounced, then he will accept $3 million.
"Three million dollars is still too high." The defense lawyer was a little angry.
"With this figure, don''t make this matter big. I don''t want it to rise to international events in the end. Don''t forget, he is a gifted child prodigy from China. " The judge warned.
"In particular, the economy of Portland is not developed. I don''t want this lawsuit to affect future international students to study in Portland and Chinese investment." The judge warned again.
As a judge, sentencing should be considered from many aspects. Because his sentencing will directly affect the sentencing of other cases later, and will also affect the status of a city. Therefore, he must be cautious.
In this regard, he must be more inclined to Qin Feng.
Of course, this also stems from Qin Feng''s great background. With so much evidence, he is not short of money. Such people, he will naturally give them some sweets.
"I''ll discuss it with my client!" The defense lawyer had no choice but to go back and discuss with the Portland police.
After a long discussion, the results came out.
"My client promised to settle out of court!" The defense lawyer said reluctantly.
"Your honor, my client also promised to settle!" Lawyer Eugene was smiling.
Thirty seven, he takes 70%, that''s $900000. In this lawsuit, his total investment was only tens of thousands of dollars, including his own expensive labor, but the harvest was 900000 dollars.
This is a great harvest.
"Thank you, Eugene!" Qin Feng was also very satisfied.
I can finally get $2.1 million in compensation. Very high! When I came to the United States, I didn''t spend a penny and made a lot of money. Why isn''t it cost-effective.
"Congratulations, Mr. Qin!" Assistant lawyer Ron said congratulations.
"Thank you for your help these days, Ron. Eugene, he''s good. I think he has a bright future! " Qin Feng naturally doesn''t forget to praise Ron who accompanied him to the exam.
"Well, after this time, I decided to hand over the law firm to him. As an investor, I no longer participate in the daily management of the law firm." Eugene said.
"Ah? Why? " Qin Feng was stunned.
"I am 50 years old this year. With this money, I can retire and enjoy my life. With the fame of this lawsuit, I believe Ron can do better. That way, as an investor, although I earn less, it''s easier. " Eugene explained with a smile.
Qin Feng suddenly.
"Congratulations on your happy retirement!" Qin Feng smiled.
"Of course, Congratulations, Ron. You have your own law firm now!" Qin Feng said with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Qin. Please take more care in the future!" Ron smiled and nodded.
