A series of continuous and multiple lawsuits all crowded together, and the defendants even organized a huge team of lawyers to deal with such a situation, which is extrely rare in Arican records.
During this period, many Arican dia outlets were reporting on this matter. They certainly wouldn't want to miss such a rare piece of news, which naturally drew the attention of the US governnt.
In fact, several congressn were among the initiators of the lawsuits against GaStar Entertainnt.
And as they gradually realized that they couldn't restrain GaStar Entertainnt through litigation, they began to co up with new twisted ideas.
They invoked Arican power.
Now, the electronic gaming industry is a nascent industry, and even the United States doesn't fully understand this industry yet. Therefore, they have been relatively lenient in terms of taxation and operations, aiming to expand the market and enlarge the pie of an industry through this approach.
And now, the pie was indeed getting bigger, but there was always one guy occupying over eighty percent of the pie, and he was as steady as a rock. If this were an Arican company, they wouldn't have anything to say, but now it was a Japanese company, and that made them really unhappy.
Moreover, there are now two industry associations stirring up trouble behind the scenes.
The Film and Television Association and the Software Association.
They exaggeratedly described that if GaStar Entertainnt continued to develop in this way, it would definitely beco a highly threatening presence.
Sothing had to be done to suppress it.
Otherwise, the Arican market would be at the rcy of GaStar Entertainnt.
And there's also the fact that the scale of this lawsuit is a bit large. If GaStar Entertainnt really achieves a comprehensive victory, it won't just be the faces of these plaintiffs that are lost, but also the face of Arican legal authority.
It would make ordinary people feel like they could do whatever they wanted as long as they had money.
So, in such a situation, a new alliance is quietly forming.
"Recently, GaStar Entertainnt has been so arrogant, actually wanting to achieve a comprehensive victory, and those damn lawyers, they're clearly Aricans, but they insist on working for the Japanese. Among them, there are even forr presidential legal advisors."
At a televised conference call, a congressman cursed through gritted teeth.
He owned a not insignificant entertainnt software company, and initially, their sales performance was pretty good. But as the gaming business thrived, their products were quickly eliminated, and then he also tried to transition to ga developnt.
But the pace of ga developnt was a bit too fast, and he always couldn't keep up with the trends, falling behind like this.
This made him sowhat frustrated. He had harbored a grudge against GaStar Entertainnt for a long ti, but he never had the chance to vent it.
This collective lawsuit finally gave him the opportunity for revenge, but GaStar Entertainnt was like it was unaffected. In such a high-frequency litigation state, it could still develop gas calmly and continue to make crazy money.
Until now, seeing the original lawsuit alliance gradually disintegrating, he joined a new group.
And this ti, the group's strength was obviously stronger than before.
Two influential Arican industry associations joined, along with many state legislators and congressn, including even a sitting governor coming to help.
The lineup this ti could be said to be very strong. If it was only a battle against a team of lawyers and a group of this size, it would actually be very difficult.
No matter how much money you spend, it's useless; this is absolute power.
"Senator John, don't be angry. This ti, we're joining forces again to figure out a way to deal with GaStar Entertainnt, right? This ti, we must deal with them more fiercely, we absolutely can't let them continue to be arrogant."
Senator John nodded grimly and then asked, "So, do you have any good counterasures now?"
"Of course." The answer ca from one of the presidents of the Software Association, his tone full of confidence. "Our Software Association is preparing for a decisive blow this ti. That is to force GaStar Entertainnt to open the source code of their ga consoles."
"What?!"
Many knowledgeable people were quite surprised. The Software Association was directly aiming to make a big move, forcing a company in the electronics field to open the source code of its products. This was almost like plucking a chicken, allowing them to do whatever they wanted.
"Mr. President, are you just testing the waters? How could GaStar Entertainnt possibly agree to such a request? So too rude requests might actually provoke a more violent backlash, and we don't want to pay a price beyond expectations again."
The president of the Software Association shook his head with a smile, "You guys just lack foresight. I'm not testing the waters. I really intend to do this. GaStar Entertainnt's biggest advantage in the United States right now is what? Naturally, it's their ga consoles and gas. Many ga companies have been troubled by the lack of direction in ga developnt and can't copy howork. So, why don't we just find a way to open up the perfect howork and let them learn? This is also 'promoting' industry developnt. It's for the whole industry; it's for a righteous cause."
For the vigorous developnt of the entire industry, and to avoid one company monopolizing everything, leading to industry shrinkage, this was a necessary action.
Monopoly was also very sensitive in the United States. Even the once mighty telecom giants were forcibly broken up by the US governnt's strong arm. Monopoly was not allowed.
And now, GaStar Entertainnt had the appearance of a monopoly... no, it should be said that they were already implenting a monopoly.
"This ti, I've also found so friends in the Departnt of Justice. I've got a clear response from them. As long as we can prove that GaStar Entertainnt is monopolizing, the Antitrust Division of their Departnt of Justice can take action and force GaStar Entertainnt to open the source code. Those guys are above the law, no matter how strong your lawyer is, it's useless."
The president spoke with great satisfaction.
He deliberately emphasized his connections in the Departnt of Justice, and such personal connections were also very worthy of attention.
The people from the Film and Television Association were just here to join in the fun. Not all of them in the film industry were hostile to GaStar Entertainnt. They were just brought in by a few wealthy bosses to stage the scene with money.
The real main force of the attack was from within the gaming industry, as well as people from the software and electronics associations.
They were the ones truly related to the interests of this matter, naturally hoping to witness GaStar Entertainnt's demise with their own eyes, and then climb onto the giant's carcass to devour the wealth it left behind.
After listening to the president's explanation, the eyes of these people gradually lit up. This matter seed to really have feasibility!
