Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

20 minutes passed.

The trial continues.

"Defence, are you going to cross-examine the witnesses?"

Ni Qiuping sat in the trial seat, looked at Zhang Wei, and asked in a cold voice.

"Your Honor, I..."

Zhang Wei stood up and glanced at the plaintiff's seat.

Seeing Wang Meiyan showing a snake-like smile, it seemed that if Zhang Wei said a wrong word, it might bring danger.

In the jury seat, there were also countless gazes.

At the hearing, her husband Ding Chuntian also held the child, showing a nervous look.

"...our side has chosen not to cross-examine witnesses!"

In the end, Zhang Wei chose not to ask questions.

"Okay, this is your choice!"

Judge Ni responded blankly, then looked at the plaintiff's seat, "Lawyer Wang, do you still have witnesses for the prosecution to be arraigned?"

"Your Honor, we have no witnesses to arraign!"

Ni Qiuping nodded, tapped the awl and announced: "Since the defense will not conduct questioning, and the prosecution has no witnesses to call, this court has announced that the court will be adjourned today, and the next court session will be at 1 pm on Thursday!"

The court was dissolved by the judge's announcement.

People left one after another.

"Lawyer Zhang, Representative Cheng, wait a moment!"

Wang Meiyan suddenly called to stop Zhang Wei and his party, and then handed over a piece of paper.

"Think about it!"

She said, showing a sneer, and walked out of the court with a cold look in her eyes.

"This is……"

"Obviously it's a condition for reconciliation, but I'm curious, isn't Heizu's goal a class action lawsuit? This is the first case, so they shouldn't want to reconcile?"

Zhang Wei said, and handed the conditional note to Cheng Liang.

When Cheng Liang opened it, his expression changed immediately.

"The gang of Heizu are too deceitful!"

He yelled angrily, crumpled the note into a ball, and threw it out with all his strength.

"What are you doing, this is an important place for the court, littering is prohibited!"

Seeing this, Zhang Wei quickly said something and picked up the note.

He opened it and looked at it, and also secretly said, "Good guy."

The condition Heizu gave was not the compensation for reconciliation, but a sincere and public apology!

This is a real blow to the face of a company.

"Heizu is trying to kill someone. Even if you agree to a settlement, the plaintiff agrees to withdraw the case. But once the company's executive president apologizes publicly, it will undoubtedly cause a huge loss to the company's image, and may even trigger a series of events. The bad thing is that the stock price has fallen to the limit, and the company has gone bankrupt..."

Zhang Wei thought about it carefully. Could it be that the purpose of the black foot is to secretly buy sincerity insurance?

Create pressure on Sincerity Insurance through a lawsuit, and then use class action as a threat to force Sincerity Insurance to make a public apology.

Once Sincere Insurance does this, the black foot can use commercial means to secretly acquire the company's shares, and finally swallow Sincere Insurance.

After all, it is very difficult to acquire a company with tens of billions of assets, but it is very easy to acquire a company whose image has been greatly damaged and is on the verge of bankruptcy.

But these have nothing to do with him, his goal is to win this lawsuit.

As long as the first case is blocked, subsequent class action lawsuits should not be a problem

"Representative Cheng, although you are a representative of Sincere Insurance, you are not the CEO after all. As a condition of the court transaction, you still need to bring the news to the real decision-maker."

After Zhang Wei handed the note to Cheng Liang, he leaned in front of him and asked, "By the way, can the materials I asked you to prepare be delivered tomorrow?"

"Lawyer Zhang, don't worry, I have asked the people in the department to collect them with all their strength, and the cases collected now are enough for you to use tomorrow."

"That's good, so I can rest assured, but you have to prepare to go to court tomorrow, and I will summon you to testify in court then!"

"I understand that for the survival of the company, I will definitely do my best!"

Cheng Liang nodded solemnly, and at the same time added something in his heart.

After I went back, I hinted that the leader would increase my salary. If I can survive this hurdle, my pension and year-end bonus will definitely increase!

Zhang Wei bid farewell to Cheng Liang and others.

The other party and Yang Fawu returned to the company and informed the CEO of Heizu's conditions.

Not surprisingly, the CEO tore up the note on the spot.

And Zhang Wei had lunch outside before returning to Jincheng Law Firm.

As soon as I entered the office, I found that the atmosphere was a bit dull.

"What's the matter, you didn't come to my court hearing, did you get in touch with the client?"

Li Yueqin sighed, "We got in touch, but the client seems not interested, and they don't answer us."

"Isn't this nonsense, the civil affairs team lost all the cases before, it's good if we can pick them up!"

Zhang Wei said, looking at his little apprentice, "Xiaomeng, next, you will call the client once in the morning, at noon and at night, and tell them that we attach great importance to the case, remember to move it with emotion and reason. Understand?"

"Uh, I don't understand..."

Lin Yumeng shook her head, of course she couldn't understand what Zhang Wei meant.

"It's okay, you call once in the morning, at noon and at night, and as soon as the call is made, you will greet the customer and care about their health. This is enough to show our importance!"

Zhang Wei comforted him, then sat down directly and began to wait.

More than an hour later, the mail came.

It was sent by Cheng Liang, and these are all the materials Zhang Wei wanted.

"Okay, tomorrow is the time for me to fight back!"

Zhang Wei began to flip through the materials, and his expression couldn't help becoming excited.

However, compared with his excitement, the entire criminal team was a little lifeless.

Tie Ruyun, Lin Yumeng, and Li Yueqin didn't seem to have any positive reaction to Zhang Wei's case.

Zhang Wei guessed that they were probably affected by the media reports.

Being able to be influenced by mere media shows that the mood of the three of them still needs to be tempered!

A lawyer who cannot deal with anything calmly is not a good lawyer!

...

Thursday afternoon.

"Are you sure you don't want to come to my court hearing?"

After Zhang Wei had lunch, he was about to go to court, but none of the friends in the criminal team were interested in following him.

"I won't go to the trial. The plaintiff is too miserable. I'm afraid I can't help it."

Tie Ruyun shook his head, showing an attitude that I don't want to go.

"Good apprentice?"

"Master, I really want to go too, but you asked me to contact the client..."

"Xiao Li?"

"Well, I have to write a report this afternoon..."

"Isn't writing reports an old man's business?"

"The team leader asked me to do it for me. I like to write reports, so I have something to do in the afternoon, so I can't go to your trial."

"Fine!"

Since none of the three friends wanted to go, Zhang Wei didn't force it.

Although he knew that the other party's excuse was poor, he couldn't bear to poke it.

After taking the subway and arriving at the city court, Zhang Wei soon met with Cheng Liang.

"After reading the terms of the settlement yesterday, the president was very angry. He even said that he wanted me to tell Lawyer Zhang that this time the lawsuit, please give him a refreshment!"

"Okay, I see, then get ready, you will be in court later!"

Zhang Wei and Cheng Liang entered the preparation room and began to prepare for the upcoming trial.

In the court, people also came one after another.

At the hearing stand, Bai Meiqi was present, and the person sitting next to her was actually Zhao Qingyan.

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhao will also come to see commercial litigation. Your relationship with Zhang Wei...is very good?"

"Oh, Xiao Zhang is a junior I'm very optimistic about. It happens that the company doesn't have many things to do, so I'll come here to support him."

The company is not busy?

Bai Meiqi thought she had heard wrong, but Zhao Qingyan would say that she was not busy?

How can the R\u0026D department of a big company not be busy, and you are still the chief R\u0026D officer, the leader in technology, you use such a poor excuse, don't you have a B number yourself?

However, Blacksmith Technology, where Zhao Qingyan works, is Jincheng's largest customer after all.

People also want face, she can't expose this kind of thing.

"Mr. Zhao, they are here."

Bai Meiqi seemed to have sensed it, and looked towards the door of the court.

Zhang Wei brought Cheng Liang and Yang Fawu into the courtroom.

Zhang Wei and Zhao Qingyan in the hearing seat nodded, and then sat down in the defendant's seat.

On the other side, Wang Meiyan also brought the accuser Yao Liting, and her husband Ding Chuntian and two children were all present.

After a short period of tenderness, the family each sat in their own seats.

Zhang Wei noticed that every move of the plaintiff, Yao Liting, would attract the attention of the hearing audience.

This is the role of "storytelling" yesterday. Yao Liting's miserable experience has attracted everyone's attention.

"I'm surprised that you guys don't have any feedback!"

On the other side, Wang Meiyan walked to the side of the dock and greeted Zhang Wei.

Of course, this greeting can be interpreted as provocation.

"Your conditions are too outrageous, the person who can agree is probably a fool?"

"But you have no chance of winning. Even if you don't agree, this case will still be lost. And this is only the first lawsuit. What can you do with the subsequent class action lawsuits? Heizu can guarantee that sincerity insurance will definitely be in these cases Bankrupt!"

"That's fine, Lawyer Wang, just try it."

"you……"

Seeing Zhang Wei's reluctance to get in, Wang Meiyan has no choice.

She thought that her words could make Zhang Wei jump his feet anxiously, but the other party seemed to be full of confidence, so could it be that he has no cards.

"Impossible, in this trial, my client is 'invincible', no one will be worse than her!" Wang Meiyan hurriedly shook her head to dispel this unreliable thought.

Since Zhang Wei didn't give face, she didn't bother to waste her saliva here.

Anyway, sincerity guarantees that you don't know the truth, and when the time comes for bankruptcy, don't blame them for being cruel and ruthless!

I have the advantage in this case, and I will never lose!

1:00 p.m. sharp.

With the arrival of Judge Ni Qiuping, the jury was seated, the prosecution and the defense were in place, and the case was ready for trial.

Boom boom boom!

After Judge Ni tapped the awl, he swept towards both the prosecution and the defense.

"Since everyone is here, let's continue the trial. The prosecution has finished its case statement yesterday, and it's the defense's turn to speak today!"

Zhang Wei got up and nodded towards the judge, "The defense summoned Cheng Liang, the representative of Chengyi Insurance Company, to testify in court!"

"Hmph, it's finally here!"

Wang Meiyan watched Cheng Liang walk up to the witness stand, the sternness in her eyes could hardly be hidden.

This moment was what she had been waiting for.

If Yao Liting's speech in court yesterday was a killing move, enough to influence the jury's opinion, then when she questioned Cheng Liang today, it would be the final killing move.

She has collected countless evidences of the phone calls between Sincere Insurance and Yao Liting, and she even secretly bribed several employees of Sincere Insurance.

As long as Cheng Liang speaks in court and says what she wants, she can call employees as rebuttal witnesses to testify that Cheng Liang is lying.

Then when the time comes, Sincerity Insurance will definitely lose!

"Your Honor, before my client's representatives answer questions, we would like to ask the court to prepare a slide show."

"Slide?" Ni Qiuping was a little puzzled, but she nodded in agreement.

Zhang Wei started to operate and got ready in court.

After a few moments, the slideshow is set.

Zhang Wei began to ask questions.

He played the first slide, then asked, pointing to a photo of a man lying on a hospital bed.

"Mr. Cheng Liang, please tell me, who is the person on the slide?"

"His surname is Song, and he is one of our sincere insurance customers!"

"May I ask the current situation of Mr. Song?"

"Mr. Song unfortunately passed away last year due to the lack of a suitable source of liver. By the way, he has been waiting for two years, but he still hasn't found a suitable source of liver."

"So does Mr. Song have any children?"

"There is a son who is in high school. Unfortunately, his son took the college entrance examination last year and got good grades, but Mr. Song has no way of knowing his son's college entrance examination results."

"Thanks for the answer, let's move on to the next one."

Zhang Wei said, and clicked on the second slide.

This time it was a young man, still playing basketball.

"Representative Cheng, what about this one?"

"This young man's surname is Yang. He is a college student. He should be at the best age, but he was diagnosed with liver cancer in his sophomore year. After 14 months of waiting, he finally got a suitable liver source. It's a pity. ..."

Seeing Cheng Liang's hesitation, Zhang Wei immediately answered, "Unfortunately, this young man died in the process of preparing for the operation, and there are a pair of elderly parents in his family. He is the only child in the family!"

"be opposed to!"

Listening to Zhang Wei's storytelling, Wang Meiyan finally couldn't sit still.

"Your Honor, what does the story told by the defense lawyer have to do with this case?"

"Lawyer Zhang?" Ni Qiuping raised an eyebrow.

"Your Honor, the defense wants to show through these cases that matching liver sources are very rare, and many patients have even experienced a longer waiting time than the plaintiffs. And I want to tell everyone in the court that once these patients are cured, they will Will get a longer life than the plaintiff!"

"This is nonsense, this is confusion!"

Faced with Zhang Wei's rebuttal, Wang Meiyan couldn't stand it immediately, "This is basically an excuse for the defense, and this case has nothing to do with whether or not to jump in line!"

"If my client cannot obtain a liver source in the near future, she will miss the best time for treatment, and what awaits her is death. Once my client dies, this group of insurance company guys can save a lot of money , I believe everyone present knows what this group of people are thinking!"

"Lawyer Wang, silence me!"

Seeing Wang Meiyan soaring in court, Ni Qiuping couldn't help it immediately.

"And you, Lawyer Zhang, come up to me both of you!"

After the judge said so, Zhang Wei and Wang Meiyan naturally stepped forward.

Ni Qiuping took a deep breath, then looked at the two of them.

"Do you know, because of this case, I've been a little depressed recently!"

Both Zhang Wei and Wang Meiyan blinked, not understanding what the judge meant.

"In this case, on the one hand, I sympathize with the plaintiff, but as a judge, I have to make a decision that violates my conscience. It is because of this that I am so depressed. Do you two understand?"

Both Zhang Wei and Wang Meiyan nodded, expressing their understanding.

Ni Qiuping raised a finger and pointed to her seat.

"One more thing, this is where I work, but every day I have to watch the filth in the courtroom and listen to what the people call 'lawyers', these vicious, harmful, filthy tumors Guys, I'm f*cking depressed with the nonsense spewing out of their mouths on my turf, do you two get it!!!"

Ni Qiuping finally lost her temper and said some "amazing remarks" that only the three of them could hear.

"Lawyer Wang, don't force me to change my opinion of you. You know what kind of people you black-footed people are!"

"And you, Lawyer Zhang, I've heard of your name, but I hope you don't lower yourself to the same level as your opponent, understand!"

Both Zhang Wei and Wang Meiyan nodded, but they behaved differently after hearing the judge's words.

Zhang Wei was a little confused. He never expected that the judge would experience "menopause" in court.

Wang Meiyan is a little annoyed, why is her strength not as good as Zhang Wei in the mouth of the judge?

"Now, the trial continues, and the defense can continue to speak!"

Following Ni Qiuping's announcement, Wang Meiyan could only sit down resentfully.

"Thank you for your reminder, Your Excellency. Now I have one last question I want to ask Representative Cheng."

Zhang Wei looked at Cheng Liang, "Representative Cheng, I saw a few numbers yesterday, can you please tell everyone what those numbers represent?"

"Can!"

Cheng Liang nodded, "The data Lawyer Zhang saw yesterday is actually very simple. One of the numbers is 24,700, which is the number of patients waiting for liver transplantation in the medical system. The second number is 421, which is the number of liver transplants for every patient. The specific time to wait."

"In other words, there are about 25,000 people in the country who are waiting for a liver transplant, and the average waiting time for each person is more than a year, right?"

"Yes!"

"Although I sympathize with the plaintiff, I have to ask a question. Why does the plaintiff think that she can surpass the thousands or even 10,000 people in front of her and allow herself to obtain a suitable liver source earlier than them?"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience became commotion again.

Zhang Wei's words also made the six jurors have the same doubts.

They only saw the miserable life experience of the plaintiff, but they didn't expect that there are many people in this world who are worse than her.

If they support the plaintiff in this judgment, wouldn't it be unfair to those who are ahead of the line?

This question caused jurors to hesitate.

Similarly, many people at the hearing have changed their views.

"It turned out to be like this!"

Bai Meiqi almost couldn't help standing up, because Zhang Wei actually used this idea to refute the plaintiff.

You are miserable, right? Then I will find someone worse than you!

You are still alive, but some people can no longer get liver source!

Sure enough, if you can defeat Miserable, you can only make Miserable!
