Chapter 8 The first confrontation with Zhang Xiuqi!
In order to expand the social influence of this case, Lin Hao submitted an application for live broadcast of the trial when submitting the prosecution materials.
So, after the court determined the trial date, it released a live broadcast announcement on the official website.
This news was quickly spread by netizens who were paying attention to this matter.
Since Lin Hao announced that he accepted the commission of the deceased's family last time, there has been no movement, and the heat of this incident has quickly dissipated.
Once the heat is gone, the enthusiasm of netizens will shift to some celebrity gossip.
Only a very small number of netizens are still quietly following the progress of this matter.
After the news of the live broadcast of the trial spread, this incident once again set off a wave of discussion on the Internet.
"Great! They actually sued me! I thought I was done!"
"Well done! These gold diggers need to be punished by legal means!"
"There are too many gossips on the Internet that have no follow-up. I thought this matter would be over, but I didn't expect to live to see the end."
"I'll put it here first. I will definitely watch this trial live, even if the world ends!"
"I'll sign up too. I just happened to be on vacation that day, hehe!"
"The working dog is dissatisfied, but I will still watch it. I am Want to be the man who slacks off! "
"I don't even lean on the wall, I surrender to you!"
"All living things are cattle and horses, but I am a cattle and horse with a sense of justice, and I am one of those who slacks off and watches live broadcasts!"
"I hope you are not watching the live broadcast of the young lady dancing, otherwise please accept all the contempt! (doge)"
"Haha, I heard that the person who represented the prosecution was a novice lawyer from the Legal Aid Center. How capable is he? Is he reliable? Do you understand him?"
"No, what do the family members think? How can such an important case be handed over to a novice? ”
“This lawyer seems to have started a live broadcast on Doushou. His last name is Lin. He took this case on the spot during a live broadcast some time ago.”
“Unfortunately, I have to tell you that I have seen the live broadcast of this lawyer Lin. He is quite handsome. As for his professional ability, haha, those who know will know.”
“Isn’t he a lawyer from a legal aid agency? Their unit doesn’t care about this matter? Don’t let him lose the fight!”
“Lawyer Lin should not be fighting alone. Their agency will help him, right?”
“Who knows? I only care about the result. As long as I can It doesn't matter who wins. "
"No matter what, as long as he dares to lose, I dare to scold him until his ancestors' graves smoke up!"
"This is unnecessary, right? You took this case out of kindness. Even if you don't win, you won't be scolded."
"How do you know it's out of kindness? What if it's just to attract attention? Since you've made a choice, you have to bear the consequences."
"Anyway, I can't accept the result of losing the case. I can't control other things. As long as I lose, I will scold!"
…………
Amid the enthusiastic discussions of netizens, the day of the trial soon arrived.
This case is a criminal case with civil litigation. Before the trial, according to convention, a mediation procedure must be followed.
In the mediation room of Yongcheng Intermediate Court, the two parties in the lawsuit sat on both sides of the conference table.
Zhen Shanmei, who was sitting opposite, was not dressed up as usual.
Instead, she was wearing simple jeans and a T-shirt, and she didn't even put on makeup.
Lin Hao instantly realized that this must be an opinion about the lawyer.
Although Zhen Shanmei attended without makeup, she could not hide her beauty and charm.
Although she is not absolutely beautiful, her overall appearance and temperament are still online.
Lin Hao could not help but admire in his heart.
"She is worthy of being a woman who can fascinate Liu Ming. She really has something. It would be better if she had not had any surgery on her face."
These days, Zhen Shanmei has been completely relieved by the comfort of the gold medal lawyer Zhang Xiuqi.
Like Zhang Xiuqi, she is also full of confidence in winning this lawsuit at this moment.
Because of this, in the mediation room, even if Zhen Shanmei tried her best to cover it up, it was not difficult to feel her contemptuous attitude.
For the new lawyer Lin Hao sitting opposite her, and Lin Hao's client, the disabled old man Liu Shu with a cane.
Of course, there is also Liu Ming, the takeaway boy who jumped off the cliff and died on Xianmen Mountain.
In Zhen Shanmei's heart, she despised them and looked down on them.
After everyone sat down on the chairs, the court staff began to mediate this time.
Uncle Liu sat on the chair, holding his cane tightly with both hands.
From the moment he saw Zhen Shanmei, his hands holding the cane kept trembling slightly.
His eyes kept dodging, and he didn't know how he should face this woman.
He couldn't hear a word of what the court said, he just felt his head buzzing.
He gritted his teeth and looked at Zhen Shanmei again, and Zhen Shanmei turned her head and looked at him.
From the contemptuous eyes of the woman opposite, he felt extremely humiliated.
He slowly turned his head to look at Lin Hao, his eyes already filled with tears.
"Lawyer Lin, can we not mediate?"
Lin Hao could feel that Uncle Liu almost gritted his teeth when he said this to him.
Lin Hao had already felt Uncle Liu's state, and asking Uncle Liu to negotiate conditions with the other party to seek peace was tantamount to stabbing him in the heart.
For a long while, the tears in Uncle Liu's eyes just swirled in his eye sockets, and never flowed out.
Lin Hao knew that he just didn't want to cry in front of the woman opposite.
Because the woman looked not only unrepentant, but also full of disdain for them.
"Sorry, interrupt me."
Without waiting for the mediator to finish, Lin Hao said in a resolute tone.
"I want to represent my client and refuse mediation!"
Hearing Lin Hao's words, the gold medal lawyer Zhang Xiuqi smiled contemptuously.
"Refuse mediation?"
"Lawyer Lin, you have to think clearly. Your chances of winning are not good at all. Refusing mediation is not a wise move."
In Zhang Xiuqi's eyes, Lin Hao could never win him.
So accepting mediation at this time might be able to gain as much benefit as possible for his client.
Like Lin Hao, who is always stubborn in a situation where he knows he has no confidence, it is a common problem for new lawyers.
Lin Hao naturally heard the contempt for him in Zhang Xiuqi's words, but he was not moved at all and confronted him head-on.
"How does Lawyer Zhang know if I have a good chance of winning? What if I have a high chance of winning?"
Although Lin Hao was very imposing, in Zhang Xiuqi's opinion, it was just bluffing.
"Hmph, don't be so arrogant. No matter how much you bluff, it's useless."
"I just said that you have a good chance of winning. To be precise, you have no chance of winning at all."
Lin Hao glanced at Zhen Shanmei with his peripheral vision.
"Lawyer Zhang is worthy of being a gold medal lawyer. He has already asserted that he will win before the court session."
"I just don't know what Ms. Zhen thinks."
Zhen Shanmei wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhang Xiuqi's eyes.
Before coming, Zhang Xiuqi had told Zhen Shanmei.
Unless it was necessary, she should not say a word. Zhang Xiuqi would speak for her.
"This is not something that Lawyer Lin has bothered with."
"But as a senior in the industry, I still want to give Lawyer Lin some advice."
"Don't be too ambitious, be down-to-earth, and don't always think about riding on the popularity!"
"You can't control this traffic!"
Lin Hao smiled and glanced at Zhen Shanmei again.
"Senior, you are right!"
"Instead of staring at the illusory traffic, it is better to fall in love, which is more direct and makes money faster!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhen Shanmei's eyes instantly became cold, and she could naturally hear the implication of Lin Hao's words.
Zhang Xiuqi was afraid that Zhen Shanmei would say something she shouldn't say in a hurry, so he quickly took over the conversation.
"Young people are indeed young people. They have never been beaten by society and don't know how to hide their edge."
"Well, since Lawyer Lin is determined to make a big fuss, I will no longer advise him."
"I just hope Lawyer Lin can take care of himself! See you in court!"
Zhen Shanmei was stabbed in the lungs by Lin Hao in front of her, and her face turned red.
If it weren't in the court now, she would have scolded Lin Hao.
However, Zhen Shanmei always remembered Zhang Xiuqi's instructions and did not get angry on the spot.
After a verbal confrontation, Lin Hao was so angry that Zhen Shanmei blushed and dared not speak, forcing Zhang Xiuqi to say something harsh.
Not only did he not lose to the senior gold medal lawyer in momentum, he even had the upper hand.
The mediators on the side couldn't help but admire this young lawyer.
"Plaintiff's lawyer, are you sure you refuse this mediation?"
While eating melons, the mediator did not forget to perform his duties.
"We are sure to refuse mediation."
In Lin Hao's resolute words, this mediation was just a formality and ended like this.
Zhang Xiuqi left with Zhen Shanmei with a gloomy face.
He thought Lin Hao was just a frivolous man who would do anything to gain fame and traffic.
Now it seems that he underestimated Lin Hao. He didn't expect that a young man could make him, a gold medal lawyer, suffer.
However, even if Lin Hao is not useless, it will not have much impact on the outcome of this lawsuit.
He still has the confidence of winning.
Lin Hao's words forced the two of them to hurry up, and Uncle Liu's emotions were calmed down a little.
But after watching Uncle Liu leave, Uncle Liu's tears, which he had been holding back for a long time, still slipped quietly.
"Uncle Liu, don't worry, I will make her pay the price!"
Lin Hao stood up and looked at the direction where 괗그 was leaving, with a slight smile on his face.
Uncle Liu felt warm in his heart when he heard this, and silently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and walked out the door with Lin Hao.
