Qin Suisui stood up and began to debate based on the evidence she had.
"Your Honorable Presiding Judge, Clerk, and Jury..."
"Regarding the validity of the 'Equity Transfer Agreement' signed between Wenhui Pharmaceutical and Chunshen Cultural Tourism on August 15, 2017"
We believe that income from production and business operations earned by the couple during their marriage is jointly owned, and both spouses have equal rights to manage and dispose of this jointly owned property.
She was upright and meticulous.
"Your Honor, my client has submitted a new round of evidence that shows that my client, Ms. Zhang Lan, had no idea that the defendant Zhang Bin's sister had been having a long-term affair with her ex-husband He Jiang, and was even less aware that when the other party signed the tripartite agreement, their purpose was to maliciously transfer marital property..."
"Presiding Judge, Article 89 of the Supreme People's Court's Opinions on Several Issues Concerning the Implementation of the General Principles of Civil Law (Trial Implementation) stipulates:"
"Co-owners enjoy joint rights and bear joint obligations to the jointly owned property. During the existence of the joint ownership relationship, if some co-owners dispose of the jointly owned property without authorization, it is generally deemed invalid. However, if a third party acquires the property in good faith and for consideration, the legitimate rights and interests of the third party shall be protected, and the person who disposed of the jointly owned property without authorization shall compensate the other co-owners for their losses."
"In this case, He Jiang's 27% stake in Wenhui Pharmaceutical was acquired during the marriage and is considered joint property of He Jiang and Zhang Lan."
"If He Jiang transfers 27% of the shares to Zhang Bin in good faith and for consideration, the transfer is valid; otherwise, the transfer is invalid unless Zhang Lan agrees to or ratifies it."
"I object to the charges brought by the plaintiff's lawyer against my client, Zhang Bin!"
Wang Hui gritted his teeth and stood up to protest again.
The presiding judge looked up at him and said, "Objection overruled. I repeat, the defendant's lawyer must provide valid evidence to prove the plaintiff's lawyer's accusations against the defendant!"
Wang Hui's attitude was mild, but his tone was firm: "When my client signed the 'Equity Transfer Agreement' with the plaintiff's lawyer, he was clearly informed that Wenhui Pharmaceutical had been in a state of loss for many years, and the purchase price of the equity was lower than the market price. The equity transfer agreement was legal and compliant."
"Your Honor, among the documents I submitted is Wenhui Pharmaceutical's financial statements for the entire year of 2017. The statements show that Wenhui Pharmaceutical has been in a state of long-term loss since 2015. My client signed the agreement with the plaintiff's husband out of friendship, and only with the plaintiff's husband's consent did she sign the equity transfer agreement with Mu Lanchao, a director of Wenhui Pharmaceutical."
Wang Hui looked seriously toward the plaintiff: "Therefore, my client Zhang Bin signed the tripartite agreement with the plaintiff's husband out of humanitarian spirit, hoping that the plaintiff and the plaintiff's husband's company, Wenhui Pharmaceutical, could benefit from the positive information, which would cause the stock price to rise and obtain sufficient funds to turn the company from loss to profit."
As Wang Hui presented his arguments, the presiding judge kept reviewing the evidence he had submitted before the trial. After he finished speaking, the presiding judge looked towards the plaintiff's seat.
"Does the plaintiff's lawyer have anything to add?"
"have!"
Qin Suisui stood up and looked towards the judge's bench.
"First of all, we believe that the so-called financial statements of Wenhui Pharmaceutical provided by the defendant are forged and false. For the financial statements of listed companies, please refer to the periodic reports in the individual stock quotes. I cannot understand the defendant's behavior. Knowing that the financial statements in the listing announcement are true and valid, and are legally binding financial reports issued by a well-known domestic accounting firm, what is the defendant's intention and purpose?"
"Your Honor, from 2015 to 2017, the financial statements disclosed by Wenhui Pharmaceutical in its periodic listing reports show that the company was consistently profitable, not in a loss-making state as claimed by the defendant. He Jiang and the defendant failed to provide evidence to prove that the company was insolvent when the 'Equity Transfer Agreement' was signed. Therefore, it is insufficient to conclude that the defendant was insolvent as claimed. The so-called positive news is even more absurd. We believe that the tripartite agreement is a false agreement, the purpose of which is to obtain the subsequent equity transfer agreement."
As Qin Suisui continued her eloquent speech, Wang Hui's defense became increasingly strained. After the presiding judge once again declared his objection invalid, he slumped back in his seat, helplessly peering at Mu Lanchao across the table.
At this moment, Mu Lanchao kept checking the messages on her phone.
He didn't understand why someone would send such a message to his phone. Looking at the girl's innocent and naive expression in the video, he knew this was his only chance to delay the trial.
But what if things are delayed? Can they turn the tables and win the case? Looking at the assurances the other party gave him, Mu Lanchao fell into deep thought.
He knew that the video must have been sent by Qin Suisui's enemy to disturb her emotions, and that he should not get himself into a more complicated situation without his knowledge because of a video whose authenticity was unknown.
If presented to the presiding judge now, Qin Suihui has the right to file an appeal and complaint at any time.
He turned to his assistant and asked in a low voice, "Have you noticed if Qin Suisui and Zhang Lan's phones have received any messages?"
"Mr. Mu, when we came in, Lawyer Qin and General Manager Zhang instructed all their staff to turn off their cell phones!"
"What? Are you sure?"
Mu Lanchao quickly confirmed.
"I'm sure. I happened to be passing by Qin Lu at the time, and I heard her give the order."
"Is that really true?"
He broke out in a cold sweat.
If he had rashly handed the video over to the judge, regardless of whether the video was real or fake, it would have done him no good.
He immediately dismissed his previous thought; at worst, he would lose the case, which was better than going to jail.
