Chapter 3 The Lady's Law
Speeding all the way, Han Tao in the car continued to recall the memories instilled by the system while driving, he must take a good look at the interpersonal relationships of this identity, which is very important for future life and work, and he can adapt to the world as soon as possible.
Especially for the famous law firm that will settle in soon, he hasn't finished watching this film and television drama yet, so he has to plan it well.
What he knows now is more than a month ago, Chen Wenguang, the deputy director of Mingtang Office, was arrested on suspicion of illegal operation of the company, and Chen Wenguang, the legal counsel, was also arrested on suspicion of accepting bribes and needed to be investigated by the public security department.
As a result, Mingtang's public image has been seriously damaged, and Han Tao conservatively estimates that Mingtang's operating profit this year will be reduced by at least 45%.
Not only that, but some staff members of the law firm began to change jobs and went to the rival Chengtai Law Firm.
Even in the cases that Chen Wenguang was responsible for, most of them had gradually terminated their labor contracts, and many cooperative companies had also moved away from Mingtang.
Han Tao knew that Tang Ying, who was also the senior partner and deputy director in the later stage, would also turn to Chengtai with his clients, and it stands to reason that Director Li is her benefactor and has the grace of knowing her.
However, Li Gongming contacted Qingmu Law Firm privately without informing her to discuss mergers and acquisitions, which is a bit unauthentic.
Although it is said that it is to deal with a hostile takeover, there is no mistake in inviting the white knight, but Tang Ying is one of the senior partners of Mingtang, and Li Gongming first cut and then refused to discuss afterwards, so it is really inappropriate to act arbitrarily and alone.
This is also the reason why when Mingtang was in the most difficult time, Tang Ying took away all his customers and suddenly fell to Chengtai, giving Mingtang a deep blow.
Tang Ying's situation can't help but remind Han Tao of Yang Ke of Jingyan Group, who was also forced to leave and was also paid at the bottom of the kettle, but Yang Ke is more clever and has an earlier layout!
Han Tao does not deny that from a rational point of view, no matter who it is, it has the right to pursue a better future.
But from a moral level, Tang Ying's behavior is a bit treacherous.
But then again, Li Gongming is not as upright as he seems, including his later appearance in the hospital, it is likely that he deliberately let Xu Jie find out that he was sick, in fact, the purpose of everything is to win over Xu Jie to continue to work for the law firm.
And the most important point is his attitude towards Song Xiu, as well as the attitude of his opponent Huang Yaoqing towards Song Xiu. In essence, he looked down on Song Xiu, and he couldn't look down on Song Xiu's stupidity, so he kept suppressing Song Xiu, suspended him, and finally forced him away.
But this is also Han Tao's opportunity, the only founding partner and the most important senior partner have left one after another, this is the best time to make a move, he can choose to stay Tang Ying or watch the fire from the other side, Chen Ran can also be used as a big help, there is no need for mergers and acquisitions in the later stage, he directly injected capital twice, and he is looking for a few senior brothers to come over to help pick up the beams.
Jingle bells!
Suddenly, the phone rang, and Han Tao took out his mobile phone from it, which showed that the caller was Li Gongming.
Han Tao didn't hesitate to put on the Bluetooth headset and connected the phone: "Hey, hello Director Li!" ”
"Han Lu, are you almost there?"
"I'm sorry Director Li, but it may take me a while to get there. I didn't feel well this morning, I had a headache, and now I'm rushing to you! ”
"Headache!"
When Li Gongming heard this, he hurriedly cared: "Han Lu, who is not in a hurry, you must go to the hospital to check if you are not feeling well, don't rush to the law firm first, your body is important!" ”
"It's okay Director Li, it's much better, thank you for your concern! The road conditions are not very good now, you can wait a minute, I will be there in a moment. ”
"Okay, okay, don't be too anxious, I'm waiting for you in the company!"
"Thank you, Director Li, see you later!"
After hanging up the phone, Han Tao put down his mobile phone, because he was not familiar with the route, so he drove to the place after a quarter of an hour, and then parked the car.
As a well-known law firm in the magic capital, Mingtang Law Firm still has his influence, although it has been affected, but the people who can come here to hire a lawyer are either rich or expensive.
Many famous cars are parked in the parking lot, and there are many Land Rover, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and luxury cars such as Porsche.
The office area where Mingtang is located is in Block C of the Central Building, Han Tao took a closer look, and then walked into the building with great steps.
…………………………………………………………
At the same time, Tang Ying, a senior partner of Mingtang Law Firm, walked into Li Gongming's office.
"Director Li!"
After saying hello, Tang Ying handed a document to Li Gongming and motioned for him to take a look.
Li Gongming took it and saw that it was a dismissal contract, and asked while signing:
"What's the matter, has Lao Chen's case been divided?"
Tang Ying nodded and replied: "It's almost, it's better than I imagined, and there are a few long-term customers left!"
The client who was in the process of litigation basically agreed to be shunted to his lawyer to take over. But it is impossible to stabilize the transition, Director Chen is the deputy director of the law firm, and if something happens to him here, the overall image of the law firm will be affected.
And I estimated that the overall profit will be reduced by at least about half this year, and I am thankful that I can keep 55% to 60% of it! ”
Li Gongming glanced at Tang Ying, closed the folder, and said:
"I believe that Lao Chen is innocent, as long as the court does not convict him for a day, then I will keep him in the position of deputy director!
Therefore, I will not make any evaluation and conclusions about this matter until the results are out! ”
"I understand, I also hope that Director Chen is innocent, and I won't jump to conclusions if the result doesn't come out."
Li Gongming nodded, handed Tang Ying a copy of the information, and said:
"By the way, let me tell you two things, one is that I have found a trainee lawyer, who is very good at handling economic cases, and has a lot of experience!"
"Did you just arrive last night and enter the police station?"
Tang Ying took the information, and while flipping through it, he asked in a confirmed tone.
"Yes, that's her!"
Li Gongming nodded, and then continued: "The second thing you won't be so worried about when you hear it, the matter I used to contact with Kyoto has come to fruition, the senior partner of the well-known national law firm Quan Jing has just left, and now he has agreed to come to our famous hall, and this time there will be someone in the second group to take the lead!" ”
"A senior partner at Quan Jing? That's already the ceiling, how can you leave your job and come to Mingtang, although Mingtang is quite famous in the magic capital, but in the current situation, someone is willing to give up the right to come here? ”
Tang Ying couldn't believe that Quan Jing is one of the top law firms in China, and many well-known barristers in China are from Quan Jing. In the past, it was possible for the famous hall to attract this kind of talent, but now she can't understand the other party's intentions.
Seeing Tang Ying's puzzled eyes, Li Gongming explained: "You should have heard of him, his name is Han Tao, he is a senior partner who was newly promoted by Quan Jing not long ago last year, and I heard Director Feng say that his family is here in the magic capital, and the old man in the family is old, so he agreed to come back!" ”
"Then let's pick up the leak, I have an impression of this Han Tao, is it from the Department of Political Science and Law of Handong University?"
Tang Ying thought for a moment, and finally remembered Han Tao, the law firm had a lot of business with Quan Jing before, so she knew something, but it was not comprehensive.
"That's him!" Li Gongming nodded.
Tang Ying said in a serious tone: "He is a new star in the past two years, how do you plan to arrange it?" ”
"Senior partner, the second group needs someone like him to hold up!"
"Is it appropriate to be a senior partner directly? After all, he has just joined the famous hall, isn't it a transition! ”
Looking at Tang Ying's eyes, Li Gongming said seriously: "He is not a newcomer who came to apply for the job by himself, he is the Dinghai needle I invited back for the law firm and the second group, we have also communicated before, he can agree to come to the famous hall or I rely on the relationship with Director Feng, this is the opportunity to fight, and he came with customer resources, he made it clear that he will not occupy and share any of the current resources of the law firm." ”
Seeing Li Gongming's resolute attitude, and Han Tao came with customer resources, Tang Ying nodded and agreed:
"If that's the case, I don't have an opinion, anyway, you are the founding partner and the managing partner, you have this right and place!"
"Then it's decided, help me inform me when you go out, and I'll introduce you to Lawyer Han when he comes!"
