Chapter 118 Lex Luthor

The clang, the sound of clang kept echoing in Iverson's ears, so that even after getting off the train, his steps seemed light and fluttering when he walked. Novel Chinese iqi.

Americans are not unfamiliar with trains. In fact, the strong industrial strength of the United States before and after World War II was somewhat of a blessing for its developed railway transportation system.

However, traveling by train is a rare memory for Americans in the 1980s. As early as before World War II, planes had already occupied a considerable share of the long-distance passenger ratio in the United States. By the 1980s, train travel was even a very unique test, because this method was not efficient, and expensive. Only when the motherland stopped and was fresh, would it stop taking the train.

Such market conditions have led to the experiential experience of Amtrak's passenger transport targeting high-end luxury and comfort, with expensive fares.

But Iverson never knew that there was another kind of railway transportation condition in the world, that is, China Railway around the Spring Festival.

Although China does not have a huge migrant worker team in this era, the Chinese New Year is still the peak of Chinese migration. Any Chinese who works abroad will have to go back to their hometown and then go back to their city of work.

Iverson could first take a plane to the imperial capital, and then fly to Shengjing from the imperial capital. But next time he had to take a train from Shengjing to Xiucheng.

Oh, no. It was not him alone, but the entire American working group of the Loyle Company who was on business trips in China, had to take this kind of sardine-like train.

It takes 8 hours to get to the best green train from Shengjing to get to the Embroidery City. In these 8 hours, everyone in the entire American working group felt that they had almost gone to hell.

"Oh my God! Mr. Iverson, this is abuse! It is definitely abuse! This is not in line with the work power law, I want to sue you... or you have to add money!"

"Ok, OK, Mr. Robert, you have to ask me to convey it to the boss. But before that, I hope you can show some professionalism. You and your colleagues, can you get up and move? We have to leave the train station as soon as possible, there are already people waiting outside!"

"Well, as long as you can afford the money, let's go!"

I and Iverson, this Iverson is nothing else, the head of the Loyle company established by Hu Wenhai in the United States, and the former Elkan's job-changing employee.

Under his persuasion and threat, Mr. Robert, who had a pair of hooked noses, triangular eyes and a Mediterranean trend, had to stand up reluctantly from the chair, greet his colleagues, and followed Iverson toward the exit.

Although Mr. Robert is a little "not good-looking", if he mentions his name in the legal circles of New York, many corporate leaders will look quite ugly.

Robert is a partner of Lemillus Law Firm in New York, and is nicknamed Patent Vulture in the industry. With his outstanding talent in patent lawsuits, I don’t know how many large companies failed in front of him.

If Iverson hadn't offered a price he could not have refused, this top patent lawyer would never have set foot on the land of China in a veritable patent desert. It's like a platinum writer who has inherent hostility and disgust for pirated websites.

"Hey, Iverson!" Robert kept complaining as he walked: "Who is our boss? A group of turtle mice in the sewer. Or a sage who cannot escape from the world in the bamboo forest?"

"Oh, I prefer you to call me batman." Hu Wenhai stood under the three words "The exit" and smiled and stretched out his hand: "This must be Robert the vulture, China welcomes you."

Robert smiled reluctantly, pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "To be honest, I didn't feel that I was welcome here."

"For the sake of money, I will give you an additional subsidy."

"Wow!" Robert whistled and smiled, "I have to admit that you Chinese are indeed quite enthusiastic."

"Boss." Iverson trotted two steps and rushed over to remind him: "Mr. Robert's commission already includes subsidies for harsh working environments. To be honest, you don't have to pay an extra USD for it now."

He is responsible for signing the contract with Robert. If such a temporary price increase occurs, Robert will never come to China after doing this vote. He is really going to be waxed.

"It's okay." Hu Wenhai smiled and said generously: "As long as Mr. Robert's service can satisfy me, I can fill every pocket of his suit."

"Don't worry, my vulture Robert's name is not just a casual call."

Robert brought the legal team from the United States this time, including two women and three men. In addition, he and Iverson are a total of seven Americans. It’s fine if God and Shengjing are all the way, but big cities do not lack the opportunity to see foreigners. However, in this embroidered city, foreigners with blonde hair and blue eyes or curly black skin, there are rare scenery. After a while, there are many curious people around Robert.

"Okay, pay attention to the influence, don't watch foreign friends!" Although the railway police came forward to maintain order, Hu Wenhai hurriedly took the person away from the train station in shame.

The car is a brand new Tianjin Dafa van. This kind of car is now even used as a taxi in China, and it is a shortage of products.

The "foreign friends" sitting in the back seat did not care whether they were comfortable to sit, but looked out the car window with great enthusiasm.

"Oh, look, what is that?" A white girl in Robert's team pointed at a tall tower in the south with some surprise. It was the ancient center point of the city, with a thirteen-level densely-eave-shaped solid brick tower over 70 meters standing there. In the embroidery city where there are generally bungalows or four or five-story buildings, it can be easily seen in any direction.

"It's so beautiful, it looks like it's hundreds of years old!"

"Yes, this is the East, it is China, isn't it? There is a long history everywhere."

"Well, and you can always see it no matter where we are. In New York, you think of looking at the Statue of Liberty at the window, and you only see other people's eaves!"

"Yes, the cement forests of New York are not like China. If possible, I really want to live here for a while!"

"But now China is also building high-rise buildings everywhere, which is really a bit worrying. They should keep this wonderful life instead of destroying these precious cultures."

Hu Wenhai turned his head, picked the corners of his mouth at the two girls, and smiled and said, "No problem. If you are interested, I can provide you with a Chinese job. I have a salary of $100 a month, live in a bungalow without tap water and electricity. There is basically no other way to entertain than reading books. Cosmetics have nothing else but friendship cream, which is our Chinese specialty. How about it?"

The two white girls chattering in the back seat looked at each other and shook their heads quickly. What a joke, $100 is not even enough for their daily salary. There is no water or electricity, entertainment only has books, and the most important thing is that cosmetics only have the friendship flake cream! It is the last point, so it is better to kill them.

"In addition," Hu Wenhai spread his hands: "We have no obligation to keep this kind of backward life for some inexplicable reasons. If you don't want to live in a bungalow in the countryside, you should not prevent others from living in a high-rise building. Ladies, what do you think?"

...

After the car finally calmed down, it soon arrived in front of the technical department building of Xinke Company.

Hu Wenhai jumped out of the passenger seat, opened the van door with a rush, and drove a group of Americans out. Because of his rage on the road, their nerves were obviously a little nervous.

"Okay, please relax. I believe that those who can be lawyers in the United States should not be considered idiots, so don't worry about being pulled out and killed suddenly."

"Baojue? Uh, what does the word mean?"

"Mr. Robert, don't pay too much attention to the details." Hu Wenhai smiled and walked into the building first. The American who was unfamiliar with the place hurriedly followed behind him, looking at the somewhat old building nervously.

There are no people in the small building of the technical department today, and the Spring Festival has not yet been over. There are not even people on duty in this kind of non-important department.

Hu Wenhai's leather shoes were stepping on the marble ground, and the sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor. The building was a bit terrible and cold in winter, which made Mr. Robert shudder.

"Okay, everyone, I'm so sorry for asking you to pour water yourself." Hu Wenhai pushed open an old wooden door and walked into the office. There was a little warmth in the office. A tin stove was burning with firewood, and it made a crackling sound from time to time.

"Everyone, let's have some rest. There will be some work to do in the next two days." Hu Wenhai called on the Americans to sit down on the bench where guests were entertaining guests, but only let Robert sit on the sofa opposite the desk.

"Mr. Robert, I believe you know that it is not for another reason that I invite you. There are some patent legal matters that need to be handled for me."

Hu Wenhai picked up an English document from his desk and placed it in front of him: "Please sign the confidentiality agreement first, and then we can talk about specific work."

Robert took the confidentiality agreement handed over by Hu Wenhai, and after careful inspection, he happily signed his name.

Hu Wenhai took away the confidentiality agreement he signed, and then a document of some thickness was placed in front of him. It seemed that this was the specific work he needed to do.

Robert opened the document and took a few glances and couldn't help swallowing.

"Boss, I think you are more like a le thor than a batman."

Hu Wenhai patted his shoulder and smiled and said, "I will regard your words as a compliment to me." (To be continued.)
