When Ding Lei, the former soul of LeTV Automobile, fell into an unprecedented predicament with his Gaohe Automobile, Jia Yueting chose to make a move at this critical moment. A lawsuit battle over trade secrets, intellectual property rights, and unfair competition has officially begunDraw attention back to these two former partners.
Ding Lei, the co-founder of LeTV Automobile, was once regarded as Jia Yueting's right-hand man. However, after LeTV was in trouble, Ding Lei chose to leave and took away the core team of LeTV Auto and founded Gaohe Automobile. This move caused a lot of shock at the time, and it also made people question Ding Lei's professional ethics.
Today, Gaohe Automobile is facing serious financial problems, and the news of shutdown is endless. At this critical moment, Jia Yueting chose to file a lawsuit against Ding Lei and Gaohe Automobile, accusing them of infringing FF's trade secrets, technical data and trade secrets. This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to Gaohe Automobile.
According to internal sources, Jia Yueting's preparations for this lawsuit have been very sufficient. He collected a large amount of evidence to prove that Ding Lei had begun to plan and carry out the theft of FF's intellectual property and trade secrets during his tenure. The products of Gaohe Automobile have also been pointed out that there is a large number of suspicions of plagiarism of FF 91.
Regarding Jia Yueting's accusations, Gaohe Automobile will naturally not sit idly by. They quickly issued a statement in response, insisting that they did not have any plagiarism and infringement of FF's trade secrets and intellectual property rights, nor did they have unfair competition. At the same time, they also said that they would protect their rights and reputation and those of the founders through legal means.
Regardless of the outcome, however, this litigation battle will have far-reaching implications for Gaohe Auto. If Jia's allegations are confirmed, Gaohe will not only face huge compensation, but may also be banned from selling the product for infringing intellectual property rights. This is undoubtedly worse for Gaohe Automobile, which is already in trouble.
In addition, this lawsuit battle will also have a serious impact on Ding Lei's personal reputation. If Jia's accusations are confirmed, it will be difficult for Ding Lei to gain a foothold in the auto industry. And his departure will also have a greater blow to Gaohe Automobile.
Behind this LeTV car "revenge" story, it reflects the cruelty and ruthlessness of commercial competition. In this industry, there are no permanent friends, only eternal interests. The grievances and hatreds between Jia Yueting and Ding Lei will also become a good story in the history of the automotive industry.
