"Probably not, we haven't found a more suitable candidate at the moment.
Because we are not involved in politics, we will not admit even the children of those in the front row into the membership.
If you refuse, this year's quota will probably be vacant. To use an old Chinese saying, it is better to have a shortage than to have it too much. "
After Li Xihui finished speaking, everyone had a tacit agreement not to mention Zhou Xin's joining the club.
An invitation like this only needs to be mentioned once. It means that those who are willing will take the bait.
Later, there was a chat at the dinner table. Zhou Xin told Li Xihui and Yang Zhiyuan what he heard from Cao Yongluo as interesting things that happened to him.
Jerry Yang felt the same way: "I have also encountered similar things to you, but fortunately the rumors about me are only on the Internet, and only a limited number of people can see them.
Unlike what you encountered, it had such a big impact. "
Li Xihui asked: "How is your relationship with your classmate?"
Zhou Xin: "It can only be said that we know each other."
Li Xihui continued: "Do you want to avoid similar things from happening in the future? Simply put, do you want to be held accountable? Use your classmates as a typical case to warn others that infringing on your reputation will cost you a heavy price?"
Zhou Xin: “I have thought about it, but the problem is that I am not in China and I don’t know which law firm in China is familiar with this area.
Secondly, China's protection of reputation rights is very limited and it is difficult to provide sufficient deterrence.
If you just apologize and pay a fine of tens of thousands, it will be counterproductive. "
After Li Xihui became the president of the Committee of 100, the reason why he was able to attract talented people from all walks of life to the committee was inseparable from his good sense of discovering opportunities.
Li Xihui already had an idea in mind: "You can leave this matter to Yang Yimei, she is also one of our members.
The chairman of Kaishou Law Firm Asia Pacific and a partner of Kaishou Law Firm.
There are currently two senior lawyers in the Committee of 100, Deng Jinming and Yang Yimei, both of whom have become partners.
Deng Jinming is not responsible for the business in the Asia-Pacific region, and Yang Yimei is also more suitable.
Kaishou is the first American law firm to receive approval from the Ministry of Justice to open a representative office in Shenhai.
They only entered the Chinese market in February last year and are worried that there are no cases to make them famous. Let me help you contact Yang Yimei.
For a celebrity like you, even if Kaishou does not make money for the development of his business in China, he will help you win the lawsuit and make the other party pay the price. "
When Zhou Xin thought about it, it really made sense: "Excuse me, could you help me make an appointment with Ms. Yang when the time comes?"
Li Xihui: "No problem. Give me your contact information. I will tell Yimei when I get back and let her come to you."
For lawyers, helping celebrities win lawsuits is the most profitable. Yimei probably wants to thank me for helping her find such a successful client as you. "
If there were a reputation ranking list, Zhou Xin would definitely be at the top of the list in China.
His fame is even more exaggerated than that of Jack Ma at his peak.
Seeing that Zhou Xin and Li Xihui were almost done talking, Jerry Yang started to ask his question: "Nen, didn't Yahoo also launch its own Q&A community?
Our number of registered users is similar to that of uora, but the number of official users of uora, that is, the number of users who can ask and answer questions, is only one-fiftieth of that of Yahoo Q&A.
However, the quality of uora's answers is far superior to that of the Yahoo Q&A community, and the Yahoo Q&A community is full of useless questions and answers.
The number of page views is far less than that of uora. I finally understand why you set such a high bar for uora in the first place.
Yahoo Answers is currently in a difficult situation. Once we lower the threshold at the beginning, we are destined to have no way to raise the threshold again. "
Zhou Xin smiled: "I didn't think about it that much.
The reason why I set such a high threshold was because my main partners at the time were working on online encyclopedias, and their online encyclopedias had very high threshold requirements for editors.
Although it didn’t work out, I think it’s the right way to go.
.
When it comes to knowledge, this is different from ordinary online forums. Quality is far more important than quantity.
So uora doesn't have a choice of quantity. Now it seems that my insistence was right. Of course, it is still too early and Yahoo's choice is not necessarily wrong. "
Jerry Yang sighed: "Because there are too many users, it is difficult to manage community content, and it is difficult to completely stop some content that exceeds the boundaries.
When users find themselves posting colored answers, they can easily get a lot of likes, and all areas begin to be flooded with colored answers.
We didn't even have time to close the account. Yahoo also planned to adopt a mechanism similar to uora, where new users would be forced to bind their mobile phone numbers when registering an account.
The cost of a mobile phone number is much higher than that of an email address. When faced with the risk of having their account banned, users will also consider whether their answers comply with community standards. "
Zhou Xin: "This is also a way. The patent for SMS verification code belongs to NePay. Yahoo can go to NePay directly to discuss it.
In fact, I have always wanted users to be forced to bind their mobile phones, but considering that not all users have mobile phones, I have never taken this step.
But Yahoo has taken this step first and can help us explore the way. "
Jerry Yang: "There is no other way. If there were other options, Yahoo would not deliberately embarrass users.
It's better not to go public. Before going public, the company belongs to me completely, and investors can't interfere with my decision.
After listing, you have no choice but to consider the company's stock price for every decision you make. After Yahoo went public, I was far less happy than when I started my business two years ago. "
Zhou Xin: "Listing is also a siege. People inside want to get out, and people outside want to get in.
Riot Games is about to be launched, and I will start a road show soon. I expect to hold four road shows in New York and Los Angeles in two weeks. "
Jerry Yang: "Let me know when the time comes and I will come to support you.
Riot Games is definitely a high-quality asset. Riot Games should be the only Internet company that has achieved profitability but has not yet been listed.
And any discerning investor can see that Riot Games has huge potential in the future.
The gaming community’s strong monopoly in the video game forum segment has led to the failure of Internet companies that wanted to compete head-on with the Riot Games Store.
In fact, if NePay is only open to Riot Games stores and not to other online game stores, Riot Games will have greater advantages. "
This refers to Blizzard, which has also launched a test version of its own Battle.net system. Users can purchase games produced by Blizzard directly on Battle.net through NePay.
And you can play against each other through Battle.net, but the network is a bit poor and the network fluctuations are serious.
Zhou Xin: “If we do that, then all Internet companies will want to make their own payment software.
NePay is not just an electronic payment software for me. "
Jerry Yang: "You have a further perspective than I do. If NePay was Yahoo's payment software, Yahoo would definitely not open it to the outside world.
Then major Internet companies entered the market one after another. So sometimes retreat is equal to advance.
Coming back to Riot Games, as long as the Riot Games community remains strong, Riot Games’ status will not be shaken.
Even if Blizzard builds its own game store, they will still sell games on Riot. "
Zhou Xin explained: “Blizzard wants to be both a game publisher and a game sales channel, which is obviously not feasible.
I split Riot into Flamingo and Riot Games early in order to avoid similar problems and make game developers think that this game distribution channel will treat every game fairly.
This is also an important reason why the number of games released through Riot Games is growing rapidly. "
Jerry Yang: "What is the valuation Goldman Sachs gave Riot for its IPO?"
Zhou Xin: "Five billion US dollars."
Zhou Xin sold a small amount of Riot Games shares to Bill Gates, replacing Beaver
The villa in Lishan Villa happened about six months ago, when Riot Games was valued at US$2 billion.
Jerry Yang thought for a while: "About that, leaving a little room for profit on the day of sale in the secondary market."
After chatting with Yang Zhiyuan and Li Xihui, Yang Yimei contacted him the next day, "Nen, hello, I am Alice, Alice Yang. Li Xihui told me that you have a lawsuit in China that you want to fight.
I wonder if Kaishou Law Firm has the honor to serve as your plenipotentiary representative in China to help you fight this lawsuit? "
Yang Yimei was very excited when she got the news last night, because this was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Zhou Xin's influence is not only in China and America, he is quite influential in the entire Asia-Pacific region.
Not to mention the apparent legal fees for helping a celebrity of this level litigate, the potential benefits far outweigh the legal fees.
Just helping Kaishou open up business in China is enough for her to move up to the next level from the position of president of the Asia-Pacific region.
Zhou Xin: "Hello Alice, Mr. Li has told me that I also believe in Kai Shou's strength.
What I need is not just to sue the author of "Zhou Xin's Road to Success" alone, but also to sue everyone in China who has violated my reputation. "
Yang Yimei said quickly: "Mr. Zhou, since I plan to introduce to you in detail my views on this prosecution, which involves Chinese laws, I will talk to you in Chinese.
First of all, we can ensure that those who profit from infringing on your reputation will pay the price. However, if it is just an infringement on your reputation, there are too many people involved and it will be difficult to pursue them.
Secondly, it is not just these individuals, but also the publisher of the book, newspapers, Internet companies, etc. involved in promoting the book.
These entities will also prosecute on a case-by-case basis.
Finally, they not only infringe on your right to reputation, but also your right to name, image, and reputation.
Article 101 of the General Principles of the Civil Law stipulates: Citizens and legal persons enjoy the right to reputation, and the personal dignity of citizens is protected by law. It is prohibited to damage the reputation of citizens or legal persons by means of insult, slander, etc.
Article 120 of the "General Principles of the Civil Law" further stipulates the civil liability for infringement of reputation rights: Citizens whose rights to name, portrait, reputation, and honor have been infringed have the right to request an end to the infringement, restore their reputation, eliminate the impact, and apologize. and can claim compensation for losses.
In response to some common issues, China has issued two judicial interpretations in recent years, the "Answers to Several Issues Concerning the Trial of Reputation Rights Cases" and the "Interpretation of Several Issues Concerning the Trial of Reputation Rights Cases."
Kaishou is confident that this series of cases will become a classic case of personal rights being violated. "Yang Yimei said confidently.
