Chapter 676 Responding to the lawsuit and filing a case for investigation

"Well, you ask him to come over now."

Hu Yang could probably guess what was going on. He sat down in the office and took a sip of tea made by Wu Xinhui. He was still thinking about last night.

At this moment, his mind gradually cleared up, and he vaguely remembered many things from last night. It seemed that after he sent Su Tingting to the hotel room, the other party pulled him and refused to let her go, and they had to chat for a long time.

I really can't remember what they talked about specifically. I guess the two drunk people were talking drunkenly.

Less than an hour later, Yi Jun arrived.

"Mr. Hu, I have received reliable information that Applied Materials is preparing to sue me. Currently, they have hired a lawyer and are collecting materials."

Yi Jun's face looked a little ugly, and the other party's movements were too fast, right?

"Well, I learned about this yesterday. It doesn't matter. Litigation is a matter where soldiers come to cover up the water and the earth covers it. Who is afraid of whom?

Director Yi, you need to take action here too. The other party's lawsuit against us is nothing more than infringement. You know more about technical matters than I do. You can prepare the information you need now.

As for hiring lawyers, I will let the North American side take action. We not only need to find lawyers, but also find an excellent team of lawyers."

Populus euphratica has developed to this day and has been involved in countless lawsuits. He has experience.

On the one hand, you need to produce solid evidence on your side, and on the other hand, you need to find an excellent team of lawyers who are familiar with local laws.

To put it bluntly, litigating a lawsuit requires a lot of money and time, and of course you need to find the best team for a professional matter. It just costs money, and Populus euphratica can afford it.

"Mr. Hu, with your support, I feel confident! Then I will prepare first... If anything happens, I will contact you in time."

The control of Yibei Semiconductor Equipment is actually still in Yi Jun's hands, and Hu Yang has no intention of directly intervening in the company's daily operations.

However, this time, it was obviously difficult for Yi Jun to settle the lawsuit on his own. That's why he hoped that the Huijia Department would come forward.

"Okay! Go and do your work, call me if you need anything."

Hu Yang politely sent Yi Jun to the elevator. As soon as he returned to the office, Xia Bing walked in right behind him.

Xia Bing has finished her work on Dingcheng Precision Machinery, and now sits in the Pudong Company, handling daily official duties.

She also heard the rumors and hurriedly came to see Hu Yang.

"Boss, is it true that Applied Materials is planning to sue Elbe Semiconductor Equipment? Hey, you said we want to do something, why is it so difficult?"

Xia Bing has a lot of emotions. Over the years, including the case of Yang Chenglin being detained at Charming Semiconductor, the incident of Mincom Communications withdrawing from the North American market, etc., the Huijia Group has actually never stopped.

"What's so strange about this? What we have done has touched other people's cheese! If we were engaged in low-end manufacturing, we would never have so many troubles! Mr. Xia, to be honest, the current

These encounters are just appetizers, so you have to be mentally prepared.

You just happened to be here, and I have something to discuss with you. It is a foregone conclusion that Applied Materials will sue Elbe Semiconductor Equipment. There is no doubt about this. Director Yi and I have decided to respond to the lawsuit. It is up to you to hire a lawyer in North America.

Responsible, okay?"

Hearing Xia Bing's emotion, Hu Yang couldn't help but think of that time and space.

At that time, the suppression of domestic high-tech companies in North America was much more severe than it is now. Many thriving technology companies were included in the entity list. In terms of the business environment, it was considered bad.

Where are we now...

"I have no problem. As long as we are not afraid of spending money, we can hire any good lawyer."

Xia Bing couldn't care less and continued to sigh. Faced with the task assigned by Hu Yang, she immediately made her promise. She was relatively familiar with North America. She didn't even need to do this kind of thing herself. She could probably get it done with a few phone calls.

"Well, let's do that. You should start looking for a lawyer immediately. I think this lawsuit will still be fought."

Litigation related to intellectual property rights is often protracted. It is difficult for Yi Jun to deal with it personally, but the Huijia Department as a whole is full of talents and is really not afraid of this kind of tug-of-war.

"Okay, boss."

Xia Bing nodded and prepared to go back to deal with this matter. But at this moment, before she could finish her words, Hu Yang's cell phone on her desk rang.

Hu Yang grabbed it and saw that it was Su Tingting calling. He immediately pressed the answer button.

"Tingting, are you up? Have you eaten something?"

"I've eaten and I feel much better now. Are you in the office? I just turned around and I'm downstairs from you."

Su Tingting had not drunk so much wine in a long time. The last time she got drunk was the day her father Su Cheng passed away.

At that time, she was far away from home and did not dare to return home. She even did not dare to come back for the funeral. She could only use alcohol to numb herself.

But this time when she reunited with Hu Yang, she untied her knot and became happy, only to get drunk again.

"Then just come up and come directly to my office, and I'll have someone pick you up."

Hu Yang hung up the phone, called Wu Xinhui in, and asked her to go downstairs to pick up Su Tingting.

Xia Bing was about to leave just now, but happened to hear some of the content of the phone call. She endured it for a long time and still laughed out loud: "Boss, didn't you say that day that what I saw was definitely not Su Tingting?"

"Haha, I say it's not, but it happens to be."

Hu Yang smiled self-deprecatingly and did not explain much.

"You are the boss and you have the final say. Since Tingting is coming up, I will wait a little longer and say hello to her before I leave."

Xia Bing is no stranger to Su Tingting, not only not strange but also very familiar.

When Huijia Group gradually withdrew from North America, it sold Ripper, a subsidiary of Charming Semiconductor, to Su Tingting. The plenipotentiary representative who went to North America for negotiations was none other than Xia Bing.

Hu Yang nodded, this was human nature and he could not object.

After about ten minutes, Su Tingting followed Wu Xinhui into the room.

"Tingting!"

"Sister Xia Bing!"

The two girls met again, and people who didn't know it thought they were good best friends for many years.

Hu Yang and Su Tingting said hello, and then watched the two of them sitting there chatting non-stop. After chatting for a full fifteen minutes, Xia Bing got up and left.

"Tingting, go sit in the tea room. I have some good tea here, please try it."

Su Tingting nodded, followed Hu Yang to the tea room and sat down.

Wu Xinhui made tea for them, turned around and left, leaving space for the two of them.

"A Yang, I didn't want to disturb your work. But I suddenly remembered something. Regarding the lawsuit filed by Applied Materials, do you need me to help you find two good lawyers in North America?"

After Su Tingting woke up, she felt empty in her heart. For some reason, she just wanted to see Populus euphratica.

So, she made an excuse for herself and unconsciously came to the International Building.

"Thank you, Tingting. I have just handed over the matter of finding a lawyer to Mr. Xia. I will tell her later and ask her to contact you if she needs any help."

Hu Yang did not reject Su Tingting's kindness, but there was a high probability that there would be no need to trouble others. Although the Huijia Group strategically retreated from North America, North American Venture Capital was still there, and there were still people available there.

Su Tingting smiled and nodded, then changed the topic.

She returned to China this time mainly because what happened in Su City was completely over and she wanted to visit her father's grave.

Another one is that she wants to come back and see if there are any opportunities in China. She wants to invest in China, and her first choice is Shanghai.

"Do you still have Ripper Company in your hands?"

Ripper is a local company in North America, and it indeed made a considerable contribution at the beginning of the development of Charming Semiconductor.

But later, Charming Semiconductor came under pressure. Hu Yang was worried that Huijia’s living environment in North America would deteriorate, so he decided to make a strategic retreat.

At that time, Ripper Company was dispensable to Charming Semiconductor. Su Tingting happened to be interested in this company, so Hu Yang sold it to the other party.

"After I took over Ripper, I received financing support from two large companies. One of the companies you should be familiar with is Lam Semiconductor.

Later, Ripper was successfully listed on Nasdaq, and by that time I had become the fourth largest shareholder of the company. On the eve of the financial crisis, I transferred my equity and the income was very good."

Su Tingting smiled brightly. Ripper Company was the foundation for her to gain a foothold in North America. Strictly speaking, she had to thank Hu Yang.

"Not bad! Have you thought of a new investment direction next?"

Hu Yang knew that Su Tingting wanted to invest in China, and he felt that he should help her. It has not been easy for Su Tingting over the years... She is her, Su City is Su City, and they cannot be confused.

"I haven't thought about it yet, let's take a look first. However, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay long when I come back this time. I will return to North America in a few days, and there are still some things that I need to go back to deal with."

Su Tingting shook her head. She didn't gain anything from coming back this time, but she still needed time to think carefully.

The two chatted happily, and it was time to get off work before they knew it.

"What do you want to eat tonight? I'll treat you. I didn't even bother to eat something good yesterday, and I was too busy drinking."

Hu Yang felt a little sorry. He should have controlled it yesterday, but he didn't. As a result, both of them drank too much.

"What should we eat? Let me think about it... Well, let's go eat Zhejiang cuisine."

Hu Yang's invitation played into Su Tingting's mind. She couldn't stay in the country for a few days, and she really hoped to spend more time with Hu Yang...

Three days later, Su Tingting and Xia Bing embarked on a voyage to North America.

After Xia Bing contacted North America, she decided to go there in person. Su Tingting happened to be preparing to return to North America, so the two of them took a companion.

Hu Yang personally sent the two of them to the airport. When Su Tingting entered the security check, she kept looking back, seemingly reluctant to leave.

Hu Yang waved his hand, turned and left the terminal.

When I arrived at the International Building, as soon as I stepped out of the elevator, I saw Wu Xinhui anxiously wandering around the elevator.
