6 "Code of Conduct"
Although Xu Zhenkun and Lin Yilong said goodbye, they didn't just say goodbye and leave at the airport, they both had other things to do - Xu Zhenkun wanted to pay homage to the ancestors of his hometown on behalf of his parents.
As for Lin Yilong, he returned to Xiangjiang and, under Lei's introduction, found a secretary of the branch to meet with one of his mainland contacts and his assistant, and signed the interrogation record of the case.
Subsequently, the contact person also signed the transcript recorded by Lin Yilong's secretary.
“...... It's just a matter of risk, which is not in line with my client's compliance procedures. Lin explained to his contacts why he submitted evidence, but firmly refuted his contact's excuse for recovering the property, "We can't pay twice for one payment." ”
"We're not going to let him go to New South Wales to sue you. "I can assure you." ”
"It's a pity, but the courts of New South Wales don't think so, and our position is straightforward, either exempt us from civil obligations or resolve it through formal official channels, otherwise it would be a danger to everyone. Lin Yilong said to death and knocked out the other party's conjecture, "What we can do is to fully cooperate with the investigation, but in terms of post-event handling and accountability, please also consider our difficulties." ”
"Cooperating with us is the only way out for you and Xu Zhenkun. "The assistant who came was so deterrent.
"My client has been very cooperative with you. Lin Yilong was neither humble nor arrogant, and replied with a smile, "I believe that the official documents and official letters we have in our hands can clear our name." You are alleging a business entity registered in New South Wales and we have properly met our reporting obligations, and the next step is to work together rather than unilaterally on our side.
"What we can do is simply simplify the procedure and pay the payment directly after receiving the notice, instead of going to the court to seal and seize it and apply for a defense. Lin Yilong replied, "When you think about extraterritoriality, you have to be quite careful. ”
Lin Yilong is clear that it is difficult for his contacts to go through the formal contact channel, but as he said, the rest is the problem of the judicial systems on both sides - however, if the channel of judicial cooperation is really taken, there is no need for Lin Yilong and Xu Zhenkun to do anything, but Xu Zhenkun can stop the implementation of the suspension of the relevant procedures according to the principle of proportionality, Lin Yilong's statement is not nonsense, but in the end, whether to raise the defense of the suspension of the procedure is after all "this time and that time".
"Okay, I'll see if I can work hard here. The liaison didn't see Lin Yilong's attitude of resisting cooperation, and sighed, "If there is any good news, we will inform you." ”
"I'm always looking forward to hearing better news. Lin Yilong smiled, and then left with his secretary in charge of records.
"Another profit?" asked Lei after finishing his official duties and making an appointment with Lin Yilong at noon at a restaurant that sells "fish and chips."
"No, it's a loss. Lin Yilong replied, "If you lose, you won't have any gain." ”
"Let me think about it, this is exactly the seventh year after the fund is cashed out after the closure is over?" asked Ray.
"This is my friend's problem, and it has nothing to do with me. Lin Yilong replied, "Who knows, the economic situation is so complicated, it always takes some effort." It's just that for a fund manager with an average annual income of 1.5 million Australian dollars, no one will believe whether there is such money or not. ”
Xu Zhenkun's investment is indeed 1.5 million Australian dollars a year, but he invests in Australian Confederation bonds, and the high-risk investment is only to meet the minimum line of 500,000 Australian dollars required by his parents to apply for visas.
"The wealthy really have their privileges!!" Ray sighed.
"We call it any choice. Lin Yilong corrected.
"Yes, but that's how it turned out. Ray said, "That money is likely to be the same bet contract as your money, one long and one short, and then hedge to keep it equal." ”
"Then you have to pay attention, according to the judgment of the upper court on the guidance of the professional field...... If our party really makes a rash investment decision and causes the user to lose, it will continue to pay its own money to the customer. Lin Yilong retorted, "You should know better than I do." ”
"Of course, 'you don't know anything about your client's specific investment strategy, and I don't know anything as an outsider,' and we're just reminiscing about the years before we were together. Ray commented, "But I don't think it's a good thing for you, as a lawyer in investment affairs, to report your client?"
"You are right, although I owe a duty of confidentiality to my client, it is not me who provides this evidence, but my partner. Lin Yilong said, "Even if I can't provide evidence because of the code of conduct, my partner can." ”
He was a little scared about the source of the entrusted property and asked the NSW authorities about it. At the same time, my client was repatriated, and the authorities organized an interview with us. It's not us, so what's the reason for the Law Society to think that I'm not keeping a secret for my clients?"
"Yilong, it's good that you understand the problem. Ray said.
"Of course, didn't I tell you that when I was working as legal aid in the Glamorgan Valley, I almost had my lawyer's license suspended for half a year because the client retracted his confession during an interview?" Lin Yilong recounted his black history, "After that lesson, I understood that the client of the case is only a client." That's why all my conversations with clients are recorded and signed. ”
"Okay. Ray found that his junior could handle it easily, so he stopped expressing his opinion.
"I have a somewhat embarrassed request. Ray thought for a moment and said suddenly.
"Is there anything I can do to help you?"
"I plan to send my children to public school in the UK when they are of school age. Lei completely let go of his guard against Lin Yilong, and said, "You know, my girlfriend who went to college, she is planning to get married, she doesn't want to take care of the children, and I am already very busy with work on my side, and I can send them to a boarding school with very strict management, so I ......"
"You want me to look after them in the UK, as their guardian in the UK?" Lin Yilong asked.
Ray nodded, then looked at him pleadingly.
"Yes. Lin Yilong agreed, "However, don't you feel lonely with your uncle and aunt?"
"It's better that way, my son also has my son's 'code of conduct', isn't it?" said Ray firmly.
