Chapter 36 talk about life

child!Who in this world is 100% bad?It's just that some people are too selfish and self-interested, so they harm others and benefit themselves, or they may go astray because of the environment. The problem of hate is to be solved with love, not with hate.Only by understanding each other and taking a step back can we create a win-win situation. Snow Plowing Something strange happened at home!We were actually sued by a gardener we didn't know.The reason is that this winter, he came to shovel snow 4 times in the middle of the night. Since he came early, our own gardener arrived and found that the snow had already been shoveled.It wasn't until we received the bill from the "stranger" that we discovered the "Oolong Incident".

From our point of view, the strange gardener broke into the yard several times in the middle of the night, and we can sue him for trespassing. In his view, he shoveled snow for us many times, but we did not stop him. He thought we were taking advantage of him. So he took us to court and asked us to pay him the full snow removal fee. This strange case shocked many people at once. First, your mother called from house to house, asking if the neighbor was nosy, and asked the gardener to come to our house to shovel snow.After confirming that it was not there, I went to the police station to file a report, saying that someone had trespassed.

The old lawyer in our left neighbor even volunteered, saying that he would help with his defense.He was a barrister famous all over the country, and he was willing to appear in court for free, and said he was really curious to see what was going on. Of course, he also said that we may not win, because according to "Roman law", we are vested interests, and that person shoveled the snow for us after all. In fact, I also wanted to pay for it, but I was uneasy and dissatisfied.What is disturbing is why such a person came here inexplicably.I have to find out who sent him here, or if he is blackmailing.

What is dissatisfied is that we never asked him to shovel the snow. If I went to his house to cut the grass without his consent, would I be willing to ask him for a "service fee"? My old classmate, Lawyer Wang, silenced me: "Haha! You can ask him in court, if you go to his house to paint, will you charge him; and because you are a painter, you will have to double the price." We decided to go to court.It's just that when I told you "I want to see who it is, and I have to introduce myself, shake hands and chat with him", your eyes widened and you said, "It's fine for mom to go, but don't go for dad, dad is very funny and very funny." Funny, being sued, still smiling."

God!I was stunned.I, who was born as a legal reporter and wrote more than a dozen books on "how to live in the world", turned out to be so useless in the eyes of my daughter. child!Dad wants to protest to you --- I'm not the "bad guy" you and mom said, but I'm more harmonious in life. A few winters ago, I sued a pirated bookseller in the Shenyang District Court in mainland China.Before the trial, he shook hands with the defendants and signed the original books they brought. Last year, there was a dispute in our Taipei office building. I was sued by a resident because I was one of the management committee members.Before he sued me, he first came to inform me, "I'm sorry! Mr. Liu, because I sued the management committee, I have to include you."

As a result, I went out to court, shook hands with the defendant and the plaintiff, and explained my position to the judge in court, hoping that peace is the most important thing. I do look like a "bad guy", but I just think about it from the other person's point of view, what would I do if I were "him". I also think that we should "treat the matter and not the person". For this reason, in any legal matter, I always ask a lawyer to come forward, so as not to tear my face face to face.I also have my principles. If someone bullies me and treats me unfairly, I will definitely fight back.

You know, when I first came to the United States, I took a Greyhound bus one day, and there was an empty seat in front of me, but the ticket agent put my seat in the last row. I immediately asked him if he was racially discriminatory. Two years ago, our whole family went out together to demonstrate in front of the Indonesian embassy to protest against the anti-Chinese incident in Indonesia.In your memory, I'm afraid there are very few cases where our family mobilized.That day, why did I insist on going? Because that is my insistence on the Chinese nation! child!Dad does things really special——

Just last night, I called the president of a publishing house and first told him that I would send him a picture; but then I told him that I could no longer renew the contract with him. Many years ago, I repeatedly asked the bookbinding factory in Taipei to reduce the price, and gave gifts to the boss's daughter when she got married.However, when he still insisted not to lower the price, I immediately transferred to another manufacturer. You know, all the money we have sued pirates for compensation over the years has been donated to the Hope Project. That is my insistence.Their prices are unreasonable, and if they don’t make improvements, of course they can stop dealing with them; pirates make ill-gotten gains and infringe intellectual property rights, of course I will sue them.

But at the same time, I also have feelings. child!Who in this world is 100% bad?It's just that some people are too selfish and self-interested, so they hurt others; or because of the environment, they may lead him astray. Hate problems should be solved with love, not with hate.Only by understanding each other and taking a step back can we create a win-win situation. I could indeed be called a "bad guy", and I was even concerned last night, what if the gardener who sued us, lied in court and said we asked him to shovel the snow?I'm not afraid of losing the lawsuit, but I don't want him to lie according to the Bible for those hundreds of dollars.

How sad it is to lie at such an advanced age. At 9:30 this morning, your mother and I, accompanied by the old lawyer next door, went to the court to appear in court. The gardener who sued us did not say that we asked him to shovel the snow, but that he shoveled the wrong house and blamed us for not notifying him earlier. Outside the court, I greeted him first and introduced myself; when we walked out of the court, we shook hands and said goodbye, saying that it was a pity that this happened. Both your mother and I were very happy with the "result" and thought the judge was very interesting. He smiled and talked first with us, then with the gardener, and shook everyone's hands one by one.

Who says the rule of law in the United States is ruthless? Who said that behind the strict appearance of the law, there is no warm heart? Who said that people have to show their teeth and claws in order to win? The gardener and I took a step back today, win-win.
