看SUITS学法律英语
Suits是一部比较专业律政剧,虽然剧中经常出现夸张的情节,但是从法律语言学习的角度,绝对是值得反复学习的素材,前提是能够看懂剧中包含的大量律师专用表述、并购交易词汇、诉讼庭审词汇等。
Nice to finally meet you. Jessica says you’re going to sweep me off my feet.
I’ll do my best, Mr. Dockery. You’ve got a nice serve there.
Working on it.
What the hell is this?
It’s you having sex with a woman who isn’t Mrs. Dockery.
Are you trying to blackmail me?
You asked my firm where you’re vulnerable to corporate take-over.
– That’s it, right there.
– What are you pulling here?
Your wife owns 10% of the company’s voting shares. You’ve been seeing this woman and several others for quite some time. How do you think your wife’s going to vote after she finds out?
Who says she has to find out?
My investigator got these within a week. What do you think a motivated competitor is going to dig up in a year? I have a solution. Trade her your preferred shares, which have no voting rights, for her common shares, which do.
The preferred shares are worth $2,000,000 more.
A fraction of what you’ll lose if you get voted out of your company. John, I don’t care if you sleep with every woman in the Hamptons. Just give her the preferred shares.
Jessica said you were going to charm me to get my business.
I’m not interested in getting your business. I’m interested in keeping it. Now, shall we play? I’m not going to let you win.
