Chapter 357: The Hardest Case (7)
Nangong Tengfei thought silently, Cao Yun was a little troublesome about this question. Although the court is likely to lose the shrimp insurance, the real loser is the white shrimp auction. For the white shrimp auction, Bai Ru is the customer, and the insurance company is also the customer.
Cao Yundao: "Within three years of shrimp insurance, there are a total of seven insurance policies for the antiques sold by the white shrimp auction house. Every time, I contacted the white shrimp auction and asked a professional to come to the site for appraisal before signing the insurance policy. Six of the professionals who visited the site were not the same person as the person in charge of the antiques. Only the vase purchased by Miss Bai Ru is the same person as the appraiser dispatched at the request of shrimp insurance. ”
Cao Yundao: "According to my understanding, every time the white shrimp auction house dispatches to the on-site appraisal and signs the insurance policy, the experts are all part-time experts of the white shrimp auction house, which belongs to a department called the senior appraisal department. The members of these departments are part-time staff, some are university professors, and some are retired professional appraisers who have been in the profession for at least 30 years. Some are antique enthusiasts with forty years of experience, some are archaeologists, and even professors of archaeology and history at Goam University. ”
Cao Yun: "Although the white shrimp auction does not stipulate who to dispatch, although Zhang Qian has the qualifications to be dispatched. However, according to the statistics of the past five years, only Miss Bai Ru, the vase dispatcher, and the person in charge of the vase are the same person. The first possibility, accidental, the first accident in five years, led to a dispute and finally went to court, and in addition, Zhang Qian's wife became rich, is there a direct relationship between the death of Zhang Qian and his wife? The second possibility: Zhang Qian's accomplice is a high-level member of the auction house and has the right to be transferred, so Zhang Qian was transferred, and Zhang Qian was a man who carried the blame. The third possibility is that Zhang Qian knew that he was sending out to violate the diving rules of the auction house, but at his request, the auction house still sent him to assist the insurance company in completing the policy. ”
Cao Yun: "No matter what the lawsuit wins, I need the white shrimp auction here to answer my question directly, why is the only person in charge and the appraiser the same in the past five years?"
Cao Yun didn't want to go to this stage, there was a rush ahead, lively but not fatal. After rejecting Sonny's slimy proposal, the poor dagger will see you, or you will die. The important thing is that I will die but I will win. You die or I win. Throwing the last hole card, Cao Yun is already invincible.
Cao Yun throwing this question is equivalent to tearing his face completely, and it is impossible for the white shrimp auction house to get out of the way. Regardless of the outcome of the trial, it has had an extremely negative impact on the reputation of the white shrimp auction. Because it was a mistake for Bai Shrimp to send Zhang Qian to be an appraiser for the insurance company, if he had done this before, it would have been Zhang Qian's personal problem. For the first time in five years, that's the problem of the auction house.
For the first time, Sonny felt the ferocity between the lawyers, and the first trial of this case, he was under a lot of pressure, but he was still at ease. In the second trial, the atmosphere changed, and the two sides fought with real guns, making Sonny feel the gap between himself and the two. By now, Sonny must admit that he is at a completely different level from the other two lawyers.
Nangong Tengfei had words, but he didn't know what to say appropriately. Because the white shrimp auction to him is not enough. Nangong Tengfei glanced at the vice president of the white shrimp auction who was listening to the trial, raised his hand and said, "I need a little time to prepare before I can answer the question of the first defendant's lawyer." ”
The judge looked at everyone: "Adjournment for ten minutes, do you agree?" Nangong Tengfei's reasons for adjourning the court are not sufficient, and some people oppose it, so the court must be continued.
Cao Yun raised his hand, the difference is that before speaking, he raised his hand above his head. Now raise your hand with your palm facing outwards and raise it to your ear in agreement. Sonny didn't dare to have an opinion, Bai Ru felt the smell of gunpowder, and the two sides killed the real fire, so Bai Ru also stood up and agreed.
......
The vice president of White Shrimp Auction and Nangong Tengfei were in a separate lounge, connecting with the president by phone.
President: "This is a problem, theoretically, according to the law, Zhang Qian is qualified to be an appraiser. However, the standard of white shrimp auction is relatively high, Zhang Qian has only been in the business for seven years, and it takes 15 years to be sent to customers as appraisers, after all, the insurance company and we are partners. Nangong, what do you think?"
Nangong Tengfei replied: "Legally, I can carry it to death, and you also said that Zhang Qian has the qualifications for appraisal." And there is no law that prohibits Zhang Qian from being dispatched. The other party is a thief, he has jumped out of the case, and the core of the case is who the thief is. Now he has turned it into a theft because of the mismanagement of the white shrimp auction. The trouble point is that the evidence is in me, and the reason is in him. Winning this case is fine, but it will certainly have a considerable negative impact on your company afterwards. According to our commission, I should do my best to win the lawsuit so that I can get the money. However, considering the interests of your company, I think it can be admitted that Zhang Qian is very suspicious of theft, and the circumstantial evidence shows that the studio theft occurred, but it was an attempted theft. ”
The president nodded: "Since we can't cover the fire, we have to admit it, admit it through the apology explanation, and admit the company's management mistakes, and take the initiative to compensate for the original price." This can undo the negative impact of the auction house. Auction houses do not rely on size and number of employees, they rely on credibility. Mr. Zhang, lawyer Nangong's lawyer will pay the lawyer's fees. ”
VP: "Got it. ”
Hanging up the phone, the vice president asked, "Didn't Lawyer Nangong expect the other party to make a move?"
Nangong Tengfei shook his head: "I underestimated the pressure on Cao Yun's back, I don't think he should be so fierce to make this move." Now it seems that Cao Yun has a reason why he can't lose. He's a good lawyer, and I'd rather be his friend than an adversary. He did a good job of preparation, and it seemed that he couldn't turn over his hole cards. ”
"There is no such thing as the strongest in the world, and I have always believed that a person who can admit his shortcomings is a competitor who has the potential to become the strongest," said the vice president. I have accompanied two court hearings, and my only opinion is that your fee is too low, lawyer Nangong. I inquired, and Cao Yun's lawyer's fee was five million. ”
Nangong Tengfei was surprised for a long time, and then nodded: "I now understand why he is so fierce." It's not the money, it's the pressure that comes with so much money. By doing so, he would affect the relationship between the two companies, but the commercial companies naturally know that their interests are the most important and will mend each other's broken relationships. ”
The vice president smiled: "That's natural, this matter has a lot of news attention, and it's not a bad thing for both companies." It's just that what we need to do now is more cumbersome. The insurance company can just open champagne on the side. In the future, if we need help, we will still look for Nangong Tengfei you, not Cao Yun. ”
Nangong Tengfei smiled: "Thank you." ”
......
After the adjournment, White Shrimp Auction took the initiative to admit that there was a negligence in the management of its own company, and the omission was directly related to this case, so White Shrimp Auction was willing to bear all the losses of the plaintiff Bai Ru, and at the same time was willing to bear all the responsibilities of this case.
After a 10-minute adjournment, the judge issued a final ruling, ordering the White Shrimp Company to compensate Bai Ru for all economic losses because White Shrimp Auction admitted that the company had unshirkable liability.
The original result should have been: either a counterfeit or a theft. Now it has turned into a management error, which has greatly reversed the reputation of the white shrimp. When Bai Ru was interviewed, she spoke very measuredly. She said that she currently suspected that Zhang Qian had violated the internal rules and regulations of the white shrimp auction house, which led to the occurrence of this case. Bai Ru also believes that White Shrimp Auction and Shrimp Insurance are two very reputable companies, and said that she will cooperate with them in the future.
Bai Ru also praised the Third Search Section, believing that the detectives in the Third Search Section were of extremely high quality, had strong professional ability, and were very responsible for the case.
The result was a happy one, but the process did not make Cao Yun and Nangong Tengfei happy, and they were both under great pressure to fight in court. In the end, Nangong Tengfei was slightly inferior, which affected the reputation of the white shrimp auction to a certain extent.
After the court was dismissed, Bai Ru was interviewed by reporters, and Cao Yun shook hands with Nangong and apologized: "I'm sorry." ”
Nangong Tengfei said: "It's nothing, I'm still very happy to be an opponent with Lawyer Cao." I hope that next time I will have the opportunity to fight with Mr. Cao. ”
Cao Yun said modestly: "I will see Lawyer Nangong in the future and take a detour as much as possible." ”
Nangong Tengfei said: "Haha...... Lawyer Cao, I have a reluctant request, I don't know ......"
"Just say. ”
Nangong Tengfei said: "I want to invite Hanzi to have a meal together and discuss the possibility of future cooperation." ”
Cao Yun said: "No problem, I'll contact her later, and I'll contact you when the time comes." ”
"Thank you. The two shook hands again, sorted out their own materials and said goodbye.
Sonny sat alone in the third dock watching the two perform, and today he was an eye-opener, and he must admit that interlacing is like a mountain. To say that Nangong Tengfei still has room for dying and struggling, no, Nangong Tengfei can win. But if you win the lawsuit, you will lose your reputation. In this case, Nangong Tengfei would rather give up his lawyer's fees and take the initiative to admit defeat from the interests of his employer, which is not something that ordinary lawyers can do.
The difference between a fast food restaurant at a railway station and a fast food restaurant in a neighborhood is that the former only does a surname business once, while the latter does a long-term business. If you want to gain a foothold in the industry, you must have achievements and credibility. As in the police industry, if you can solve crimes, your status in the industry will naturally be high.
"Hey!" Sonny called, "Head, you just looked for me?...... No loss, no shame...... I write down the address...... Bai Su's will is lost, if it is lost, it is lost, she is not dead, write another copy...... She wanted to know who had read the will?...... She could think. Head, I think this case should be taught a lesson...... Bai Su and I are modest, Bai Su will naturally look for the temple chief, the temple chief will look for Li Long, and Li Long can only find Li Mo...... As soon as the search lesson was solved, we exposed the private use of public weapons, and used the best criminal investigation resources in the Eastern Tang Dynasty to serve the rich, and still without any loss to the rich...... Haha, head, three lessons to be taken, we must find a stepping stone, we will step on one lesson...... It's not that I said, the quality of the detectives in the first class is good, but there are no outstanding talents...... Li Long won't trouble you, he will talk to me, I don't bird him. If you dare to touch me, I will sue him. When the time comes, you can be a peacemaker. ”
Hung up the phone, strange, it has been 20 days since Li Long took the initiative to resign, why has there been no movement at all. With the structure of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, the temple chief was elected by the citizens, and the police chief was appointed by the temple chief. In other words, if the police chief does not perform well, the temple chief will be unlucky.
......
As soon as Cao Yun left the courtroom, he received a phone call, a call from Bai Su's personal assistant: "Lawyer Cao, I am Bai Su's personal assistant XX, is it convenient to meet?"
Meet? Could it be that Lin Luo is not dead in his heart for himself? This thigh can be hugged, and it is still acceptable for him to send a small turbojet plane or something. Cao Yun said: "I'm sorry, I just finished the Yihe case, and I'm physically and mentally exhausted, I'm afraid I'm not interested in taking on the case in the past few days." ”
The personal assistant said: "I don't need Lawyer Cao to fight a lawsuit, I just want to ask Lawyer Cao to be a witness." ”
Bai Su's will is placed in a special safe in the office of the chief lawyer of the legal department of the Universe Group, which is not as good as K137, and is an ordinary built-in safe with a password and key. Of course, it has nothing to do with the safe, because it was not stolen in the safe.
It was nine o'clock this morning, and the 9-to-5 office workers of the Cosmos Group were at work, and a fire alarm broke out. Smoke came out of the thirteenth floor. Everyone evacuated, and the chief lawyer was very loyal to Bai Su, and he took out the will from the safe and evacuated with everyone.
But I don't know if it's because of his age or his body, after walking a dozen or so stairs, the chief lawyer's chest is dull and he can't breathe. The colleagues who evacuated together immediately called an ambulance. At half past ten, Bai Su received a call from the chief lawyer, saying that the will was missing.
The doctor suspected that the lead lawyer might have been injected with some kind of drug while walking downstairs, which was a targeted theft. Bai Su was very angry about this and immediately contacted the search third section. At the same time, let his personal assistant contact Cao Yun. The reason is simple, Bai Su wants to write a new will, which will be witnessed by Cao Yun and kept by Cao Yun.
This money is very profitable, as long as Bai Su lives for one day, Cao Yun can collect one day's lawyer's fees. Of course, under normal circumstances, the cost will not be very high, but this is Bai Su, and then Cao Yun is called Cao Million.
Cao Yun didn't really want to get into trouble, he felt that it was better to call Cao Wan, especially now that he was in no mood to work again. However, as a lawyer in the industry, it is unjustifiable not to accept this kind of order. So Cao Yun still went to the Universe Group to meet Bai Su.
Cao Yun knew in his heart that after the chief lawyer fell, Bai Su had a certain suspicion of his legal department and the Universe Lawyer. In the absence of a trustworthy lawyer, it is possible to buy a lawyer with professional ethics for money. Cao Yun's professional ethics are very high.
I'm not loyal to you, but I'm loyal to money and career. You give me money to meet the needs of my profession, and I am loyal to you.
This kind of thing is really simple, Cao Yun is worried that he will also be stolen, so he can put the will in the bank vault. What if someone pointed a gun at Cao Yun's head and asked him to tell the contents of the new will? Sorry, Cao Yun couldn't read a word, he would seal and sign. When it is necessary to publish the will, confirm the integrity of the sealed signature before publishing the will.
What if the lawyer is not ethical?
A writes a will and leaves the estate to B, and C buys a lawyer when he knows about it, and the lawyer replaces the new will with the previous will or a fake will. After A's death, the lawyer publishes the will, and C gets the estate.
