When it's raining outside, you drive your car and use a wiper to automatically brush off the rain from your windows, and maybe you take it for granted. Then if you watch "Genius Flash" and don't know how you feel. At least after I watched it, I realized how hard it was to drive safely in the rain today. It is precisely because of this film that I have a deep dislike for Ford. (Although Ford's assembly line did change the world.)

In the course of 12 years of litigation, he also encountered various temptations and threats. Ford offered compensation from $400,000 to $1 million to $30 million to close the case privately.

For the first time, when confronted with the temptation of $400,000, he was very firm: "If these people are allowed to go unpunished, how will I teach my children to uphold the truth in the future?" ”

The second time, when confronted with the temptation of $1 million, he replied, "Yes, but on the condition that Ford publicly admit in the newspaper that it plagiarized my invention." ”

The third time, 12 years later, all 6 children have grown up. As a result of his relentless persistence, the children who were taken away by his wife never understood to support, and their attitude towards him changed a lot. And he is no longer as desperate as he was then, but has learned to consider the feelings of his family. So when a lawyer from Ford Motor Company told him he was willing to pay $30 million for private, he turned to look at the kids who were sorting out the lawsuit for themselves. At this time, the little daughter who was in adolescence took the lead and said, "No! Father! We don't! Then his eldest son said very firmly to the lawyer, "Leave him alone!" We've all been going on for so long and we're not going to give up! ”

At that moment, Robert Cohens was relieved, even a little proud. It is clear that the example he has invisibly set for his children to uphold the truth has blossomed.

Nowadays, in the United States, you can imagine how important it is to defend intellectual property!
