Chapter 467 Are you really ready?



In Xinran Bar, Wen Ying met Lawyer Zheng, who was in his teens.

Lawyer Zheng still had thick hair in 2005.

Wen Ying stood up subconsciously, "Hello, Lawyer Zheng!"

Zheng Zhihe seems to be born to be a lawyer. Just listen to his name, Zhihe Zhihe. Most people go to court not for life and death, but to seek "peace".

Who wants to go to court when something can be resolved peacefully?

Find Zheng Zhihe to sue, he is really capable!

Zheng Zhihe often uses his own name as a joke to open up topics, which in turn makes the students listening to the lecture laugh and immediately brings them closer to Lawyer Zheng - too naive, that is just Zheng Zhihe's appearance. Zheng Zhihe never advises the parties to mediate before the court. He is a ruthless person who can stab the other party twice and will never stop after one or two cuts.

Zou Weijun is really good at finding.

There are so many lawyers in Chengdu, why did they choose Zheng Zhihe?

Although Lawyer Zheng is not bald yet and his attack power should not be as strong as it will be in a dozen years, it is definitely bad luck for Han Qin to be with Lawyer Zheng.

Zheng Zhihe had no idea that Wen Ying had such a rich inner life.

On his way here, he heard Zou Weijun say that he wanted to meet the author of "Fish Against the Current" himself. The author was young but very thoughtful and proposed to sue the anonymous netizen who spread rumors on Tianya Forum.

Zou Weijun asked Zheng Zhihe if it was possible.

——Of course!

Zheng Zhihe came here with great interest. Others would be confused by Wen Ying's non-intimidating round face and would look down on her because of her age, but Zheng Zhihe never made such a mistake.

Judging people by their appearance is superficial. Zheng Zhihe really admires Wen Ying's thinking.

Apart from the fact that Wen Ying's gaze drifted to the top of his head several times, making him subconsciously want to touch his hair, Zheng Zhihe had a good impression of Wen Ying.

Young and talented teenagers are really likable.

Zheng Zhihe said amiably, "I'll call you Xiao Wen. Ms. Zou said you have some new ideas. Would you like to share them with me in detail?"

Wen Ying wanted to laugh when she heard the familiar tone.

Zheng Zhihe's "harmony" is all fake. He will be very harmonious before he sets a trap for others!

Fortunately, Zheng Zhihe was the lawyer hired by Zou Weijun, not Han Qin's lawyer. Wen Ying lit the candle for Editor-in-Chief Han again and told him what she had just thought.

When Wen Ying was speaking, Zheng Zhihe was a quiet listener. After Wen Ying finished expressing her thoughts, Zheng Zhihe smiled:

"I've considered the lawyer's letter you mentioned. If you want to sue the anonymous netizen as well, I think that's feasible. The law is a weapon to protect ordinary people, but many people don't know how to use it. They're afraid of lawsuits and find them troublesome. Little do they realize that the more assertive and overbearing you are, the more frightened your bullies will be."

Zheng Zhihe showed Wen Ying his work computer, and sure enough, he had even written the lawyer's letter, but it had not been sent yet.

This lawyer's letter was sent to Tianya Forum.

The forum is required to delete those unverified and inappropriate remarks that are detrimental to the author "Fish Against the Current".

There are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand readers. Netizens in the forum are readers, and readers can certainly evaluate the quality of the work "Teen Idol".

But it is not acceptable to go from evaluating the quality of a work to attacking the author's character.

Now Zheng Zhihe only needs to modify the lawyer's letter.

Adding one more defendant is a small matter for Lawyer Zheng.

Zheng Zhihe had discussed some of these issues with Zou Weijun before, but he wasn't sure about the details without meeting Wen Ying. After personally questioning Wen Ying, it was Zheng Zhihe's turn to ask:

"Ordinary readers don't focus on the process; they only care about the results. Therefore, we must do a lot of work upfront and present a beautiful verdict at the end, allowing those readers who misunderstood you to see clearly and restore your reputation. The key issue is that the early work is very tedious and time-consuming. Some of my clients are clearly plaintiffs, and they haven't been defeated by the defendant, but have been dragged down by the litigation process. To win a case, not only must you bear the legal expenses, but you also have to devote a considerable amount of time and energy. Regarding this, I would like to ask you two, are you truly mentally prepared?"

Zheng Zhihe still has hair now, so it shouldn't be as strong as it will be in a dozen years.

But what is a big boss? A big boss doesn’t suddenly pop out from a crack in the rock. Before he becomes balder and stronger, he must have already shown signs of being a big boss.

What would a lawyer usually say in order to get the client?

They would say that suing is not troublesome at all.

All you have to do is sign a power of attorney agreement and leave the rest to the lawyer.

Zheng Zhihe is not empty talk, what he says is very real.

Wen Ying wants to add another defendant, and the case will have a wider impact.

No case is settled simply by signing a power of attorney agreement. When preparing prosecution materials, lawyers will need the client's cooperation many times. Wen Ying feels this very deeply. When she was a lawyer, she was scolded impatiently by the client because she asked the client to cooperate in providing evidence materials many times.

The client feels that he has spent money and is still being troubled, so isn’t the money wasted?

What can Wen Ying say? No matter how good a lawyer is, he can't have clairvoyance. The client refuses to provide a lot of evidence and is unwilling to cooperate. Can the lawyer be asked to fabricate it based on his imagination?

Zheng Zhihe said that the plaintiff would be defeated by the process of litigation. In fact, the same is true for lawyers. Sometimes it is not the other party's attorney who drives the lawyer crazy, but his own client.

The client refused to cooperate in providing evidence.

Because the client did not tell the truth, Wen Ying was caught off guard by the opposing lawyer when she went to court.

Wen Ying has fallen into all these pitfalls!

She swore at that time that if she became a client one day, and the full score was 100, she would never be satisfied with being a client with a score of 99!

Seeing that Wen Ying didn't speak for a long time, Zou Weijun thought that Wen Ying was frightened and timid because of Zheng Zhihe.

Zou Weijun was not disappointed.

Wen Ying is still a little girl.

It’s great that the little girl can write novels. These pressures should be borne by adults!

"Lawyer Zheng, we've discussed this before. 'Teenage Idol' is a major project I'm planning, and my company and I are on the same page. No matter how much money the lawsuit costs, we're going to demand an explanation from Aige and restore the author's reputation."

Zheng Zhihe nodded in agreement on the surface, but he actually disagreed in his heart.

He knew that Zou Weijun really wanted to restore the reputation of the girl in front of him.

But Zou Weijun’s unit may not think so.

For the publishing department, the most important thing is that the books sell well.

According to the current trend, the sales of "Teen Idol" may not explode even if the lawsuit is won. On the contrary, if the lawsuit is lost, "Teen Idol" may become even more popular despite the infamy of losing the lawsuit... The market is so strange, and it is not Zheng Zhihe's imagination. Last year, in the plagiarism lawsuit that shocked the industry, the first-instance judgment ordered the popular best-selling author to pay compensation, apologize and stop the infringement. The author did not accept the judgment, refused to apologize, and appealed after the first-instance judgment.

Because of this lawsuit, this popular best-selling author became even more popular. Despite being embroiled in the lawsuit, the sales of his books were not affected, but instead sold even better!
