Debate? No way, that guy has a mouth that I don't know what's wrong with him, his logic is so strict that I think he's a robot.
Lu Zuxiong was trying hard to hold on, but he couldn't hold on any longer.
The other party's words become more and more sharp as time goes on, which can easily make people doubt that they are not suitable to be a lawyer.
It turns out the gap is still so big... So what about the judge? I'm in this state and I still want him to speak?
When people are anxious, their minds become confused. Lu Zuxiong said, "That's simply impossible, Judge. If we calculate it the way they do, then Afu Company will have to pay 2 billion yuan for organizing an event. There's no way we can compensate them. The company can't afford it."
As soon as these words came out, the live broadcast room fell silent.
Attorney Fang replied, "I don't have any opinion. If you think the rule of refunding one and compensating three is unreasonable, then you can amend the law. But right now, I think we should still abide by the law..."
"If everyone thinks it's too expensive and doesn't need to pay, then what's the point of having laws? Today you can say 2 billion is too much, and tomorrow those fake sellers on the street can say the compensation is too much. They all have their reasons anyway..."
Attorney Fang started to argue again. Seeing that it was getting late, Judge Luo, who was watching with great fascination, finally seemed to feel Lu Zuxiong's mood.
"Ahem, does the defendant have anything else to add?"
"there is none left."
"Okay, the court debate is over!"
After hearing this, Lu Zuxiong seemed to lose all his strength. For a moment, he felt that he didn't want to do litigation anymore...
The court is in recess, and netizens who watched the live broadcast now have no other thoughts. It can really be said that in this situation, even a fool can see which side has the advantage.
The case cannot be concluded just by having a motive, not to mention that others have produced so much evidence. They had thought about it a long time ago, planned step by step, and purchased according to their needs.
You can't convince the judge just by saying you want revenge.
Not to mention that this case is so serious that it will definitely be escalated to the discussion of the trial committee.
After the recess, Judge Luo returned and pronounced the verdict in court:
This court believes that Shenzhen Afu Internet Media Co., Ltd. engaged in price fraud by fabricating original prices in its... activity. According to Article 55 of the Consumer Protection Law...
The judgment is as follows: The defendant Shenzhen Afu Internet Media Co., Ltd. shall return the plaintiff Zhou Yi the money of RMB 4.86 million for the purchase of gold products and pay RMB 14.58 million in compensation within ten days after the judgment takes effect, and the plaintiff Zhou Yi shall return the defendant's gold products.
The litigation costs in this case shall be borne by the defendant.
If you are dissatisfied with this judgment, you may appeal to this court within 15 days from the date of delivery of the judgment...
A seemingly simple judgment of refunding one and compensating three times, but it caused a huge uproar!
The court supported the lawsuit and refunded one and compensated three times!
Lu Zuxiong's face turned pale, but he still expressed his intention to appeal in court. He had to appeal, even if the lawsuit dragged on and even went all the way to the Supreme Court!
Otherwise, the compensation of more than 10 million yuan is unacceptable to the company.
Tang Pengcheng almost smashed his computer. He really didn't expect to lose, but this was only the first trial, and the matter was so heated that he definitely couldn't just let it go.
What good will it do to let a good private enterprise go bankrupt?
This is actually the godfather theory. After all, as for the son, he cannot be killed with one blow. The economy still needs to develop.
The law is the law, but sometimes it is not determined solely by the law.
So soon, corresponding articles appeared on the Internet.
This was posted by a well-known economist’s self-media in Shenzhen Stock Exchange. The title is: Is it reasonable to pay a sky-high compensation just because the original price was fabricated?
"Today, the first-instance verdict of the nationally watched, sky-high compensation case was announced. The defendant, Afu Company, was ordered to pay over 14 million yuan. I study economics, and I just want to ask: is this verdict reasonable?"
"Let's see. Ah Fu Company simply fabricated the original price. They should be compensated, but they absolutely cannot pay so much. It doesn't make sense. Why? Because the losses caused by their fraud are too disproportionate to the compensation!"
"How much loss could the fraud have caused? Hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands? And yet the compensation has ended up being this low. Let's not talk about the law today. Everyone, please think honestly: Is this fair?"
"Let's put it this way. If everyone demands a threefold compensation for a refund, then after this event, the company will probably go bankrupt. And the economy won't even develop. So, the court has to take responsibility for this ruling!"
As soon as this article was published, it was praised by everyone!
Many company executives have come forward to say that such sky-high compensation is absolutely unacceptable!
It is true that Afu should be compensated for price fraud, but the compensation should not be so high.
Similarly, there are many supporting comments online. Looking at the comments, you can see that many of them are business owners.
"Close your eyes when it's dark": I think this judgment is also unreasonable. Let's not talk about the Consumer Rights Protection Law for now, let's just talk about this matter. I think in a transaction, if the other party does not accept the price, isn't it enough to just refund the money? Why must you pay compensation?
Right, there is no loss for consumers anyway. You can get a refund, or compensate the interest if that doesn't work. That's fine, right? What else do you want? This is going to drive the company to death!
"插花弄玉": I think so too. Seeing everyone celebrating online, I can only say that there are too many ignorant people. Such a judgment is absolutely unacceptable!
There are really many different opinions, and Lu Zuxiong's previous words were brought up again.
"If everyone were to seek compensation, Afu Company would have to pay 2 billion for this event, which is unbearable. I'd like to ask everyone, what good is there in forcing a company into bankruptcy?"
