      The main result of this paper is the following: There is a constant \(C\) such that \(n\) points and \(e\) lines in the complex Euclidean plane \(\mathbb{C}^{2}\) determine at most \(cn^{2/3}e^{2/3}+3n+3e\) point-line incidences and this upper bound is the best possible apart from constant factors. It generalizes the celebrated theorem by \textit{E. Szemerédi} and \textit{W. T. Trotter jun.} [Combinatorica 3, 381--392 (1983; Zbl 0541.05012)] about point-lines incidences in the real Euclidean plane \(\mathbb{R}^{2}\).
