Chapter 519: Epilogue (23)
Wen Shining, who had been defeated by Li Hannian, was pale when he stood on the defendant, and his whole person was like a lifeless rubber man.
Under the judge's questioning, she almost didn't even refute it, and obediently confessed her crime.
Because she stole manuscripts, there is no way to measure the number specifically, but judging from the data of Chu Nanxi's previous sales, her manuscripts also have very high economic value, and from all aspects, it was finally determined that Wen Shining was a very serious theft.
After all considerations, Wen Shining was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
Subsequently, the plagiarist Bai Jingyi was brought to court.
In order to save his daughter, Bai Yanming went bankrupt and hired the best lawyer for her.
In court, in order to exonerate herself, Bai Jingyi only admitted that the manuscript was picked up, and did not conspire with Wen Shining, indicating that she did not have any right to know.
The lawyer also repeatedly defended her, arguing that this was only a civil entanglement and did not constitute a crime.
The defendant's lawyer hired by Chu Nanxi believes that this is a vicious criminal incident.
Bai Jingyi's act was to occupy other people's property, and she used it without authorization when she knew that the manuscript was unknown, that is, she embezzled other people's property.
"Miss Chu Nanxi is a well-known writer, her economic value is immeasurable, considering that this matter has caused great economic losses to my client, we demand that this case be convicted of illegal possession of other people's property, and be judged according to law!"
"This is just a copyright dispute, and we believe that this is a civil dispute, and my client is willing to bear the plaintiff's economic losses, but does not accept the charge of illegal misappropriation."
……
The lawyers on both sides have been arguing, and it is the first time that the judge has encountered such a case, and in the face of the attention of the whole society and countless domestic and foreign media reports, the judge does not dare to make a judgment easily.
Considering the importance of the matter, the judge decided to reapply for the case after the trial.
"Leave the court!"
The judge slammed the hammer and announced his withdrawal from the courtroom.
First, the case has come to an end for the time being.
The barrage of the live broadcast has already exploded.
At the beginning, Bai Jingyi's fans still insisted that their Fengyi was wronged.
Seeing that the author she has always supported admitted in court that she picked up the manuscript and that she had stolen it for a while, these fans realized that they had been deeply deceived.
Fans have said that their fans have turned black, and many even took off their fans directly and stood in the sugar-coated camp.
Those fans who have always insisted on standing on the sugar-coated side naturally sang triumphant songs and cheered for the authors they supported.
[Strongly cheer to sentence Bai Jingyi]
[Support originality and combat plagiarism dogs]
[Bai Jingyi gets out of the writer's circle]
……
Although there is a conflict in people's understanding of whether it is a criminal crime or a civil case, the attitude towards the plagiarist Bai Jingyi inside and outside the circle is very unified, thinking that such plagiarists should get out of the writer's circle.
The publishing house that was involved in the plagiarism incident because of this matter also hated Bai Jingyi to death this time.
not only issued an announcement to terminate the contract with Bai Jingyi, but also demanded that she compensate for various economic losses amounting to 5 million.
The trial has not yet given a result, Bai Jingyi is already a rat crossing the street, and everyone is shouting and beating.
No matter what the final verdict is, Bai Jingyi's reputation has already become stinky.
After the judge announced his retirement from the courtroom, everyone present stood up, and Chu Nanxi and Li Hannian also got up from their chairs.
