"One dollar?" Clark was obviously a little surprised. "Didn't you want 100 million?"
Fu Song laughed and said, "How is that possible? I was just saying it casually, don't take it seriously.
So just give me one dollar!"
Seeing Fu Song's cowardly and wretched look, Clark suddenly smiled: "It's just one dollar, right? No problem!"
Then he took out a coin from his pocket and said, "I won't go to the Chinese government to find out. I'll give it to you now. Just donate it for me!"
Fu Song said: "No problem, as long as Mr. Clark is sincere, I am very willing to do this little thing for you."
Then you have to go and pick it up.
Just as he stretched out his hand, Clark threw the coin. The coin fell to the ground with a crisp sound and then rolled away.
Fu Song laughed and didn't care. He ran over, picked it up carefully and put it in his pocket.
The judge waited for both men to finish speaking before asking, "Is the plaintiff determined to withdraw the lawsuit in the first case?"
Fu Song nodded and said, "Withdraw the lawsuit. I originally wanted to vent my anger for my ancestors. Now that How to Train Your Dragon has compensated us, it's natural that a big thing will be reduced to a small thing."
"Okay, let's talk about the second thing. How to Train Your Dragon's China branch is suing Caidie Culture and Entertainment for plagiarism in their new film Lost on Journey."
Once again, the plaintiff made the first statement. The lawyer for "How to Train Your Dragon" briefly explained the incident and then said, "We demand that Caidie publicly apologize and temporarily remove "Lost on Journey" from the shelves for rectification."
The judge looked at Fu Song and asked, "What does the defendant have to say?"
Fu Song changed his smiling face and said: "Your Honor, the claim that Lost on Journey was plagiarized is a blatant slander.
Because the "Way Down East" mentioned by Mr. Clark was actually a second adaptation by Mr. John Martin after he heard the idea of "Lost on Journey."
What?
When these words were spoken, everyone at the scene was shocked, especially the reporters in the audience. They picked up their cameras and started taking pictures of Fu Song.
The cameraman also hurriedly zoomed in the camera, almost focusing on Fu Song's face.
Clark's face also changed: "Mr. Fu, you have to provide evidence when you speak!"
Fu Song chuckled: "You want evidence, right? It's very simple."
After saying this, he took out a stack of documents and distributed a copy to everyone present:
"Everyone, look, this is a screenshot of an email from 'Lost on Journey' screenwriter Meng Jianv to Mr. John Martin. The date is included, and the truth is clear at a glance."
Fu Song then showed a USB drive and said, "In addition to the screenshots, we also contacted Mr. John Martin. This is a video he recorded specifically for this matter."
The judge winked at the assistant next to him, and the assistant walked over to Fu Song, took the USB drive and inserted it into the projector.
Soon, a white man in his fifties appeared on the screen.
Clark's face changed. He recognized that the other person was John Martin.
"Ladies and gentlemen!"
John Martin is very fluent in English: "I heard about Lost on Journey and Way Down East from Adel (Meng Jia's daughter).
I'm very sorry for this, because "Way Down East" was indeed inspired by "Lost on Journey".
Here, I must strongly condemn the behavior of "How to Train Your Dragon".
They are just a bunch of mad dogs biting people for money, and they are bedbugs in the toilet.
Sooner or later, Zeus will severely whip their buttocks with thunder..."
The atmosphere in the court hall suddenly became awkward.
No one expected that John Martin would have such a bad temper and curse people without hesitation.
The only regret is that it is difficult to express the essence of Chinese swearing in English alone.
Finally, the judge looked at Clark and asked, "What else does the plaintiff have to say about this matter?"
Clark's face turned red immediately. He was already being scolded like this. Was there any point in saying anything more?
"Okay, now let's start the sentencing.
Regarding the lawsuit filed by the Chinese branch of "How to Train Your Dragon" against Caidie Culture and Entertainment for plagiarism of the script of its new film "Lost on Journey", it was determined to be a false accusation.
Now Caidie Culture and Entertainment has filed a counterclaim. After research and decision, the behavior of the "How to Train Your Dragon" branch in China has had a bad impact and caused huge economic losses to Caidie Culture and Entertainment.
Therefore, it is required to compensate Caidie Culture and Entertainment for defamation losses of RMB 1.835 million within 15 days and publicly apologize on the official Weibo account of "How to Train Your Dragon."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was thunderous applause.
Fu Song, in particular, instantly became the focus of reporters.
Everyone asked various questions, and Fu Song answered them one by one with a confident look.
Finally, he said: "Everyone, thank you for coming here to listen to the trial today. I declare that all the compensation for reputation loss paid by the official "How to Train Your Dragon" will be donated to charity.
Of course, to avoid suspicion, this money will not go into the 'Drug God Fund' account, but will be transferred to an official charity along with the one yuan compensation from 'Classic of Mountains and Seas' just now."
After these words were spoken, Clark, who had not yet left, stumbled.
Before, Fu Song asked him to pay one yuan in compensation, but he just thought it was a bad measure that the other party had to take in order to save face.
Now it seems that the other party should have anticipated this moment and laid a trap in advance.
No one would care about one dollar, but compared with 1.835 million, it is completely different.
The drastic contrast will cause the official reputation of "How to Train Your Dragon" to plummet!
Sure enough, the eyes of the reporters around lit up instantly, and they began to think of specific news headlines.
