Chapter 1730: Lanxin Company Sues T-K Group

T-K Group never imagined that they would be barraged by wave after wave of troubles.

After T-K Group was caught for violating the advertising regulations, Wen Xinya handed in Lanxin Company’s legal application to sue the Group. She was suing them for illegally copying Lanxin Company’s Traditional Chinese Medicine health supplement product recipe.

The courts indicated that they would accept Lanxin Company’s legal application for the claim.

The courts issued a summons to T-K Group.

Everyone was shocked by Lanxin Company’s series of counter-attacks against T-K Group.

When the deciding battle between T-K Group and Lanxin Company just started, the Group had Lanxin Company nearly beat to the ground. The public had deemed Lanxin Company as a wicked, greedy company that had besmeared the name of local brands.

Everyone anticipated a terrible and bloody end to this battle between Lanxin Company and T-K Group.

The public, who had their minds so swayed by T-K Group’s previous antics, now felt extremely regretful over their earlier actions. They started to feel a sense of pride toward Lanxin Company.

Lanxin Company did not respond then, not because they were guilty, but because the time was not yet ripe.

They had all misunderstood Lanxin Company. They had all misunderstood Bella.

In that instant, the entire nation rallied, and sentiments against overseas takeovers raged.

As Wen Xinya strolled out from the courthouse, she saw a group of concerned citizens crowding around the entrance of the courthouse, as well as university students who had formed a group opposing overseas takeovers, shouting their support for Wen Xinya. The reporters circulated amongst the crowd, trying to weasel out more newsworthy tidbits.

They saw Wen Xinya coming out.

Excitement spread through the crowd as they cheered and applauded exuberantly.

A bright red banner was raised with the words “Oppose against overseas takeovers. Protect local brands. Support Lanxin Company and Bella”.

There was even a female university student who rushed out of the crowd to stand before Wen Xinya. “Miss Bella, please accept my apologies. Previously, we didn’t know the truth and were swayed by T-K Group’s antics and instigations. We misunderstood you.”

More and more apologies followed.

“Miss Bella, you are a true fighter for the local people. Even when under such immense pressure from T-K Group, you managed to lead the health supplements association and Lanxin Company to stand at the front lines against their takeover attempts, to protect our local brands. You did this all despite everyone misunderstanding you, rebuking you, attacking you. You truly deserve our utmost respect.”

“Miss Bella, from today onwards, you are my idol. Please accept my humblest respects!”

“Lanxin Company is great! Miss Bella is great!”

The crowd cheered exuberantly.

The reporters swarmed around.

“Miss Bella, can you please tell us why you are suing T-K Group for illegally copying Lanxin Company’s Traditional Chinese Medicine health supplement recipe? Do you have any proof?”

Wen Xinya answered, “I believe everyone is well aware that T-K Group managed to poach one of Lanxin Company’s key researchers. After this researcher went over to T-K Group, he didn’t receive any preferential treatment. It was he who discovered that the recipe of T-K Group’s Traditional Chinese Medicine products is very similar to Lanxin Company’s. Thereafter, we launched an investigation and confirmed that T-K Group has indeed behaved despicably. I have already handed over all our evidence to the courts.”

Of course she had adequate evidence. Only then would she dare to make such a move.

A reporter asked, “The recipe to the health supplement product was leaked and copied by T-K Group—did this have anything to do with Lanxin Company’s earlier publication of their product quality report?”

The previous incident also created quite a commotion. Lanxin Company had published their product quality report and made things completely transparent, which enabled them to defeat T-K Group in the previous product war.

Wen Xinya nodded solemnly. “Most people would not be able to copy our recipe just based on the information from that quality report. But a great Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor would be able to discern some clues. Add to that a world-class research team—it is not that difficult to work out our recipe.”

This was a trap that Wen Xinya had set for T-K Group.

After she realized that T-K Group was working with the Korean-Chinese Alliance, she knew Xia Ruya would definitely be involved in the Group’s takeover plans. She also guessed that Xia Ruya would suggest for T-K Group to make a Traditional Chinese Medicine health supplement product.

Publishing information about their own Traditional Chinese Medicine health supplement product was a bait set out to lure T-K Group.

The reporter spoke up again. “From what I understand, the Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor helping T-K Group in the development of their product is the famous Luo Le.”

This was no big secret among the press.

The public didn’t know much about this Luo Le person. They only knew that he was highly respected in the world of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

But the reporters had access to some information related to him and knew that there were some character issues with this person. Nevertheless, there had been no hard evidence, so the press didn’t publish any reports on him.

Wen Xinya said in a voice heavy with sadness, “Most of the great Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors possess upright and noble characters. It is very rare to see such cases of illegal copying. So I was very shocked when T-K Group used Lanxin Company’s own recipe to beat us down.”

Even with Luo Le’s recipe, it was not that easy to successfully develop a Traditional Chinese Medicine health supplement product.

Even if T-K Group was willing to invest time and resources into researching such a product, the takeover battle would probably be long over by the time the new product was completed.

It was just not possible for them to develop a new product in such a short period of time.

The only way to launch a new high-quality product within such a short time frame was to illegally copy Lanxin Company’s recipe.

Otherwise, any new product developed would be sorely lacking in quality and effectiveness, which would just be a self-destructive move.

“Miss Bella, what do you have to say about T-K Group illegally copying Lanxin Company’s health supplement recipe?”

Wen Xinya kept silent for a moment before speaking. “T-K Group is a world-renowned international corporation. They possess an elite research team and have always stood at the forefront of the global health supplements industry. I never imagined they would do something so despicable. They have sullied their own name and failed to uphold the good morals that any major enterprise should have.”

The reporters were roused.

Wen Xinya continued coldly, “As for T-K Group illegally copying Lanxin Company’s health supplement recipe—Lanxin Company will make use of the law to pursue this matter to the end. I want to take this chance to advise T-K Group: Don’t do anything foolish that will undo your hard-earned reputation and brand influence.”

Wen Xinya spoke powerfully, every word sharp as a blade.
