A somewhat inconspicuous lawsuit was filed in the New York Federal Court, but just an hour later, the specific contents of the lawsuit quickly spread around the world.
The matter is actually very simple. A 21-year-old young man named Caron filed a lawsuit in New York Federal Court against Fairy Company for its "beauty photo" function.
The reason is that this beauty photography function is seriously deceptive.
He originally met a girl on Facebook. He looked at the photos and saw that she was very beautiful, so he started talking and getting familiar with her. During this period, the girl often sent him selfie photos, which gradually made him fascinated.
So after a month of chatting online, Cuaron finally plucked up the courage to invite the goddess in his heart on a date. To do this, he spent most of his savings, booked a Michelin restaurant, and bought a large bouquet of expensive roses to stand in front of the restaurant.
waiting.
As a result, the girl who appeared in front of him turned out to be a 160-pound fat woman, and even if she used a lot of cosmetics to cover it up, she could not hide her big nose, many freckles, rough skin... and other shortcomings.
It made Caron collapse and cry.
When Caron asked why the photo and the real person were of two people, the girl admitted with embarrassment that her photo had been automatically processed by the Fairy Company's dreamstars beauty camera function, so that she would look prettier and whiter.
The next day, Cuaron, who was deeply hurt, took Fairy Company to court and demanded that they compensate him for his mental losses of US$100,000.
The money was not much. After all, Cuaron was young and had never thought about getting rich from this, but it was real that he wanted to vent his anger.
There are so many strange lawsuits in the United States that only the Chinese and I can't think of. There is nothing that Americans dare not file a lawsuit against.
Originally, Cuaron's matter was not a big deal, but it involved the company of Xiao Qi, the richest man in the world, and the three most popular mobile phones on the planet, Dreamstars and Dreamsnostars, and the reason for the complaint was so ridiculous.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation.
Countless people were stunned.
Countless people laughed dumbly.
Most people thought Cuarón was being unreasonable. But public opinion around the world immediately started to move positively.
For the media, as long as it does not involve justice and justice, anything can be hyped, let alone things about Xiao Qi and Dreamstars!
Many Westerners, especially the elite, are actually dissatisfied with Xiao Qi.
Because in this world, they Westerners have occupied the leading position for a long time, and now they are suppressed by a Chinese. And they are directly crushed by the overwhelming force. The assets of more than 500 billion US dollars are almost suffocating.
, which really made them unhappy.
It's just that Xiao Qi has too much power and has too many friends with entangled interests. If it's not a big deal, they won't be able to make a fuss.
Now this is not a big deal, but it makes Xiao Qi feel relieved.
Therefore, many media rushed to New York. They rushed to Cuarón's home and conducted extensive interviews and reports.
Other media outlets interview other users on the street and ask them if they have had the same experience.
There is also a TV station that actually organized an expert discussion within an hour after the incident to discuss whether this beauty camera function was intended to mislead the public and whether it was suspected of breaking the law.
In contrast, the discussion on the Internet is really overwhelming and lively.
"Yes! The same thing happened to me, haha, I thought I was the only one who was fooled!"
"These women are so disgusting, they actually used this method to deceive us!"
"Tch. What are you saying about us women? Don't you men also use the beauty camera function? It's obvious that your face is full of acne and a double chin, but in the end you look like a handsome guy!"
"So what if we women love beauty? Being able to take photos like this proves that we have good foundation. As long as you men take good care of us, we can become what we look like in the photos!"
"Hey, men are not all like this, okay? But this kind of deception is really not good!"
"What is deception? I took pictures just to show them to everyone, and I didn't ask you to pounce on me! Can you still complain that female stars in movies and TV shows are so beautiful that they scare people to death after taking off their makeup? Isn't this the same thing?
Is that true? I would say that Xiao Qi’s creation of this kind of software is a great initiative. Only dirty people like you can decide a woman’s future based on her appearance!”
"What you said above makes sense! Why don't you look at the girls on the street, with false eyelashes, contact lenses, eyeliner, blush...etc. all smeared on their faces? Do you think this is hypocrisy and deception? Be careful, Mom.
I’m going to beat you up!”
"..."
Xiao Qi knew about this six hours later, Saturday morning, capital time.
Many legal matters of Fairy Company in North America are decided by the proprietress Tang Mingxiang, and this matter is no exception. She saw that it was already late at night in China, so she did not call Xiao Qi.
The decision she made was to let the lawyers at Mario Law Firm understand the origin and process of the case through various channels, and then let Anthony explore whether the matter would be accepted by the New York Federal Court and start a civil lawsuit.
, and how Mario Law Firm should respond if a case is filed.
On the other hand, Tang Mingxiang also contacted Wade from Citibank, Schwartzman from Blackstone Group, and Bobby Bobby from Green Pine Capital. These three are all people with excellent connections in the political and business circles of the United States.
They are also one of the shareholders of Fairy Company's products, and since their own interests are involved, and they can have Xiao Qi's favor, naturally they are willing to do more errands.
Tang Mingxiang has only one request for them, and that is to not make this matter a big deal and not to involve other products of Fairy Company. Even if there is a legal dispute, it should be controlled over the beauty photo function.
Xiao Qi listened to Tang Mingxiang's report to him and nodded repeatedly.
Even I can't do better than Xiao Meiji.
Because this lawsuit is not intentional at all. It is not deliberately going against Fairy Company like Google did last time, or it is to suppress your Fairy Company.
According to the investigation by Mario Law Firm, this incident was really a coincidence, and Cuarón sued because he felt deceived and felt sad.
Since this is the case, it is called uncontrollable factors and cannot be blamed on others.
"Is there any way to turn this into a good thing?" Tang Mingxiang asked Xiao Qidao on the phone.
"A good thing?" Xiao Qi was stunned.
"Yes, this matter can be said to be complicated or simple." Tang Mingxiang chuckled, "I thought, since everyone is so interested now, it is better to promote our beauty photography function to the public.
Let those TV programs, newspapers and magazines, online reviews, etc., discuss more about the various advantages of beauty photography, compare it with cameras on the market, and then ask some girls and boys to test and demonstrate their photography experience...
Think about it, husband, how much more can our products sell?"
Xiao Qi burst into sweat after hearing this: "Xiao Xiang'er, how come you have learned the American businessman's aura? Can you use this?"
"Why not?" Tang Mingxiang was not afraid of Xiao Qi. She glared and said, "Your wife, I have been thinking about it for a long time before I came up with this good idea. It will be hyped like this for a month or two, and then the lawsuit will drag on to attract attention...
A few months later, let’s privately give the poor young man a sum of money, wouldn’t everyone be happy?”
"If you say that...it's okay." Xiao Qi said thoughtfully.
He didn't do it for this benefit, but he was also a little tired of it.
Americans pay attention to the rule of law, which is a good thing. They have strict regulatory laws and play an irreplaceable and important role in a highly developed society.
But the key point is that Americans really make a fuss about many things. For example, this case is completely different from Xiao Qi's judgment.
If Cuaron was in China, let alone going to the court, this matter would only be treated as a joke. How could it be taken seriously?
In China, many people would reprimand Cuarón, saying that he only loves beauty and judges people by their appearance. He deserves it!
But in the United States, Cuaron can seriously go to court and file a lawsuit, and the court is really very likely to accept his petition.
Therefore, for Xiao Qi, such a boring thing is not worth the effort, let alone an apology.
Since Tang Mingxiang wants to take this opportunity to make some publicity, then let her do it.
Hearing Xiao Qi's approval, Tang Mingxiang was really happy, "Husband, just watch me make the sales of our products increase again!"
"I'm talking about Bu'er's mother." Xiao Qi reminded her, "Don't forget that you have a daughter now. Don't forget about Bu'er because of work."
"I see, you don't know how clingy your daughter is." Tang Mingxiang started acting coquettishly as she spoke, "She wants to be held by me all day long, but she has a lot of energy, so the most I can do is give her instructions over the phone.
...When I come back in a few months, you have to make up for it well. Then you will take your daughter with you, and I will go shopping with my sisters to eat and buy things!"
"good!"
Xiao Qi readily agreed.
How could he not pamper his own daughter?
Now, I am becoming more and more a full-time dad! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
