Chapter 417: Chapter 266 You are Suspected of Engaging in Espionage Activities… (Please Subscribe)
In the courtroom.
With thick hair, Steve only felt his mouth dry, a lump in his chest. He opened his mouth, took quick breaths, and stared blankly at the young man in front of him.
What was Lin Chuan just talking about?
Suddenly, Steve’s brain seemed less responsive, operating roughly as if the machinery lacked oil, pausing intermittently.
Was Lin Chuan saying that he designed the PHL-191 Remote Box-type Rocket Launcher first released by the National Weapons Research Institute?
Is that even possible?
Steve’s expression gradually lost composure, he glanced at the interpreter slightly ahead to his side, then at the legal team beside him.
Obviously, this piece of evidence presented by Lin Chuan far exceeded their expectations.
The 600 km range of the PHL-191 Remote Box-type Rocket Launcher was much longer than their 350 km range!
“Perhaps you are also wondering what 600 km minus 350 km equals?” Lin Chuan looked at Steve with a smile, “My math is pretty good, the difference is 250 km.”
Lin Chuan repeated the number 250, carefully emphasizing each syllable.
Those in the courtroom who understood Mandarin could not help but chuckle.
Steve did not understand what “250” meant, but hearing the laughter, he keenly sensed that Lin Chuan was mocking him, probably meaning something like ‘sweetie.’
Unable to restrain himself, Steve retorted, “Mr. Lin Chuan, I must remind you that we, Sania Weapons Research Company, are accusing you of infringing on our scientific research results, which has nothing to do with whether or not you are the ‘Chief Designer of the PHL-191 Remote Box-type Rocket Launcher’.”
He had done his homework.
His legal team had repeatedly trained him to insist that Lin Chuan had infringed their patent, regardless of any evidence Lin Chuan provided.
600 km range?
It sounded fantastical, but it was irrelevant to this case. As long as Lin Chuan infringed their 350 km range Rocket Launcher, they still held the winning hand.
Before the trial began, the Morgan Group, as the puppet master behind the scenes, had already used international public opinion to drive attention to this trial.
The louder the voice of public opinion, the more it could pressure the result of the trial, preventing the Anling Court from blatantly favoring Lin Chuan.
That was their public opinion strategy.
And indeed, that was what was happening.
Today, not only Lin Chuan’s friends and the National Weapons Research Institute were focusing on this trial, but also Haas Armed Forces and even some armed groups and regions that had collaborated with the Morgan Group.
This lawsuit was even dubbed a clash between the new and established military weapon suppliers!
Whoever wins, shows they have the power!
Lin Chuan vs. Morgan!
Many armed organizations had already placed their bets on both sides.
For instance, the Turban Bro, who had previously contacted the Morgan Group for collaboration, had reached out to Haas Armed Forces at the start of the trial.
In the face of profit, betting one-sidedly seemed naïve.
