With the rapid development of the process of globalization, international cultural and educational exchanges have become more and more profound and extensive, especially the academic group of international students, which is no longer as strange as before. Basically, people with financial conditions will choose to let their children study abroad.
There is a Mr. Li Degui in Beijing who also thinks so, he is in the real estate business. The boss wanted to let his children study abroad, so he sold most of his property at all costs.
However, after the boss handed over 4 million to the agency and asked them to go through the procedures for immigration to the United States, he had not completed it for six years and all the money was gone. Li Degui was very angry and claimed 7.12 million yuan from the intermediary company. Where is the result of this conflict going?
The plaintiff and the intermediary company each have their own opinions
When Li Degui handled the immigration procedures, the total cost was about 4 million yuan, but why did Li Degui ask for 7.12 million yuan after suing the intermediary company in court?
In fact, Li Degui has his own plans. He believes that the immigration company must first compensate him for the investment, because he only took out the money for investment at the suggestion of the immigration company. In addition, Li Degui feels that the immigration company should compensate him for all the costs he spent in the past few years and related to immigration processing.
Finally, Li Degui felt that it took six years and the agency had no results, which caused great harm to him and his family, and the last amount of money was considered a mental loss.
Although Li Degui is the plaintiff, when investigating the case, the court must understand all the situations of both the plaintiff and the defendant. Although Li Degui has his own demands, the immigration company also has its own difficulties.
This immigration agency said: The company has very rich experience in handling overseas immigration, and it is also an old company. Except for Li Degui, no other customer has filed such a complaint, and he has never been appealed in court.
Even though Li Degui has sued the immigration company, the immigration company has been following up on Li Degui's case. In addition, we can also think that if Li Degui's immigration process abroad is not successful, then the intermediary company will not only have to spend time and money all the time, but they do not have any income yet, so it is not cost-effective no matter how you calculate it.
So we can't just listen to Li Degui's words. When the two parties met in court, the immigration company said: they would not accept the compensation plan proposed by Li Degui, and their person in charge said that they would continue to follow up on Li Degui's case, but compensation is impossible.
Li Degui and the immigration company have signed a contract before, and the contract has not expired, and they must continue to perform the contract. Despite this, six years have passed, and Li Degui has not seen a green card in the United States yet. What is the inside story of the immigration company that has delayed for so long? Furthermore, after persisting for six years, Li Degui's dream of immigrating to the United States is as solid as a rock. Why did he have this idea?
Li Degui's dream of immigration
The beginning of all this is because of Li Degui's son. Six years ago, Li Degui's son was 16 years old. Li Degui, who valued education very much at the time, believed that only when he went abroad could he receive better and higher quality education.
So he thought about immigrating to the United States and letting his son go to school abroad. In fact, children can also go to school abroad without going through immigration procedures, but Li Degui learned through multiple channels: If has the status of an American resident, then the children will have more educational resources to choose from, and the quality of education the children will receive will definitely be higher. With this idea, Li Degui began to handle immigration procedures.
After inquiring and understanding from multiple sources, Li Degui found the immigration agency we mentioned above. However, there was a big problem at that time, that was, Li Degui's son was not yet an adult.
So it is impossible for him to immigrate alone. Only by immigrating from a family can Li Degui's son go to school in the United States, which means that Li Degui himself also wants to immigrate to the United States.
Immigration Company introduced Li Degui to many ways to immigrate to the United States. At that time, what Li Degui looked at and recommended to him was the way to invest in immigration, which was to invest his own money in companies in the United States, and he could be qualified to immigrate to the United States.
The reason why Li Degui and immigration companies chose this immigration method is because investment immigration only focuses on the issue of funds and often do not pay attention to the educational background, family background, etc. of immigrants, which greatly reduces the conditions for immigration. After the decision of
, the immigration company told Li Degui that he needed to spend $500,000 to invest in a US company. Li Degui is a small boss. Although he has some savings, it has been accumulated over the past few decades of new hard work, so he was still very hesitant at the beginning.
But for the sake of his children, he still put the money into the investment immigration project. Because Li Degui didn't have that much money at all at the time, he sold his house, even his company, and then invested all the money in a project in the United States.
However, there has been no news from the immigration company since then, and no news has been brought to Li Degui again. He ran away countless times, but the person in charge of the immigration company told him that the project Li Degui invested in is not much risk, so the US government is likely to not admit it.
sued the court
It was already a difficult situation at that time, and Li Degui could not give up halfway. There was no way. Under the advice of the relevant person in charge of the immigration company, Li Degui moved to another investment project with a slightly higher risk. Li Degui has been wasting two years in the immigration company since his second investment.
However, four years later, Li Degui's child had been wasting six years. At that time, his son was 21 years old and was about to miss the golden age of education. Li Degui was very anxious and very angry. What makes even worse is that the second project invested by Li Degui was investigated by the US police, which means that his money was wasted.
took six years, spent more than 4 million yuan, but in the end, I got nothing, and anyone would be angry. So there is the scene we mentioned before, and Li Degui sued a company in court and claimed 7.12 million yuan. However, after understanding the causes and consequences, the judge rejected Li Degui's appeal.
In fact, the reason is very simple. When Li Degui signed the contract, he might not have read the relevant terms carefully. The immigration company has already made it clear: as long as the US visa or green card is not approved, Li Degui would better not sell all his company or property.
. Li Degui was very anxious at the time and sold his house for his son's future and the company also sold it, which led to the subsequent situation.
Conclusion
The judge's judgment was not problematic. In the end, it was only because Li Degui did not read the agreement carefully when signing the contract. Of course, from a moral perspective, it is also wrong for the intermediary company to not remind their customers to pay attention to risks in order to commissions.
But for us, the inspiration we have obtained is that no matter what it is, as long as it is a contractual relationship, we must carefully read the contract between the two parties.
