Lawyer

Chapter 1007

"Then... will that save my life?" After a while, Zhang Fangfang sat up straight and stared at Meng Guangda, as if she was returning to the light.

"We have received the letter of understanding from the victim's family, and Mr. Hu has voluntarily surrendered. The death penalty should not be imposed immediately, but the death sentence may be suspended. We will defend Mr. Hu as a minor crime and strive for life imprisonment." Meng Guangda replied road.

"Thank you." Zhang Fangfang was in a trance. Although she had been mentally prepared, when she heard Lawyer Meng's opinion, she still felt a little bit in her heart, as if she had stepped on a tall building.

……

After returning from vacation, Yunqiao and Cao Yongzheng got busy. The cases signed a few years ago will be held in court one after another in the next year, which will keep the two of them busy for a while.

Zhou Ping proposed to Fang Yi to resign. He really couldn't find a colleague who shared his language with him.He was also afraid of being squeezed out by other colleagues in the future, so he took the initiative to leave.

……

Just after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, senior brother Zhou Shen, who hadn't seen him for a long time, suddenly called Fang Yi and asked him to have dinner in the evening.

At 07:30 in the evening, Fang Yi came to a private restaurant. This is a newly opened private restaurant. It doesn't look like a mountain from the outside, but when you enter it, it looks like a palace.

It is said that those who come here to eat are either rich or expensive, and they must book at least one week in advance to have a seat.After Fang Yi entered the door, he reported Zhou Shen's phone number, and was taken to a private room inside by a young woman in simple clothes.

"Junior brother, you are late and you will be punished with three drinks." As soon as Fang Yi entered, Zhou Shen stood up and said with a smile.

There are only Fang Yi and Zhou Shen in the huge private room. The layout of the private room is very elegant, with ancient style and ancient charm, which makes people feel like they have traveled through time.

"Senior brother is very right, he should be punished with three drinks." Fang Yi said with a smile.

"Long time no see. Taking advantage of the time just after the new year, let's have a good get-together. You don't have to be polite, there is no one else today, just the two of us.

You take this, authentic Cuban cigars.It's for you. "Zhou Shen handed over two boxes of cigars.

Fang Yi took the cigar with emotion, the first cigar he smoked was given to him by Zhou Shen, and Zhou Shen taught him how to smoke cigars, the past is vivid in his memory.

Soon, the food and wine were put on the table, and the two brothers exchanged glasses.

"Junior brother, it's been more than a year since I saw you. You are now a well-known barrister in the local area. How do you feel?" Zhou Shen smiled.

He sighed in his heart: No wonder Fang Yi rejected his invitation at the beginning, but now it seems that Fang Yi is still smart.Think about your own law firm now, hey!Nominally, he is the director of a law firm, but his rights are limited to his profession, and he is always hindered in what he wants to do.

"It's not a barrister or a barrister, it's just a little bit of fame. We work together, have money, have something to do, and get along is the most important thing." Fang Yi put down his chopsticks and said with a smile.

"Well, indeed." Zhou Shen's eyes were full of envy.

"Senior brother, how are you doing? Your law firm is located in the capital city and has more business opportunities than ours, so it must be developing well." Fang Yi asked Su Yan, who was handed over by Zhou Shen.

"Well, there are many opportunities, but the competition is also fierce. There are 80.00 to [-] lawyers with a lawyer's certificate. Even if only [-]% of them are actually lawyers, there are still many people. From high-threshold businesses such as listings and mergers and acquisitions to labor disputes Other low-threshold businesses, from legally providing legal services to assisting evildoers, can do everything.

Our law firm is mainly engaged in non-litigation business. Although it is a little famous in the industry and has several regular large clients, the development of the law firm is not ideal. Our non-litigation business relies too much on relationships. If the layers change, our business will be affected, success or failure! "Zhou Shen sighed.

"Actually, whether there are new clients is not a big problem. As long as Defa Group develops well, your law firm will not lack business." Fang Yi knows that Zhou Shen's law firm is actually a subsidiary of Defa Group. If it goes bankrupt, Zhou Shen doesn't have to worry about business.

But Fang Yi didn't know that the chairman of Defa Group was replaced at the end of last year, and several of Zhou Defa's children failed to become talents. In the end, his nephew Chen Xuekun, who had been working as a secretary for a long time, gained Zhou Defa's trust and succeeded in taking the position.

Although this Chen Xuekun is not from the Zhou family, he has always been valued by Zhou Defa. Zhou Defa paid all the expenses for going to college in China and going to Harvard to study for an MBA. He also worked abroad for many years, and was later called back to be Zhou Defa's secretary.

Originally, Zhou Shen thought that he had the opportunity to compete for the chairman's seat and enter the core management team, but he did not expect Zhou Defa to position him as the general counsel of Defa Group, which is equivalent to using him to supervise and restrict Chen Xuekun, all the legal affairs of the group. Zhou Shen has the final say on all issues.

And Zhou Shen has the right to participate in the board of directors as a legal adviser and express opinions.At first, Zhou Shen didn't understand Zhou Defa's arrangement, but after his father called him, he realized that Zhou Defa didn't want his nephew Zhou Shen to be deeply involved in the management of the group, so that if there was a problem with the Defa Group, Zhou Shen could get out. Not to be implicated.

Zhou Shen didn't know the source of Zhou Defa's concerns, but there were many original sins of entrepreneurs, maybe Zhou Defa had already smelled something.

Chen Xuekun's current status is equivalent to a professional manager. Since he took office, he has carried out drastic reforms to the group. Defa Construction in this city will soon be sold because of insufficient profitability and high operating costs.

If Defa Construction is sold, the business of Zhou Shen's branch office in this city will be greatly reduced, and there is no need for it to exist anymore.This was exactly what Zhou Shen didn't want to see, but it was determined by the board of directors of the group and he had no choice but to think of a way out for the brothers in the branch office in advance.

"Hey, to tell you the truth, Junior Brother, the current Defa Group is developing very well, and it is going to transform into a technology-based enterprise. The Defa Building in this city will be divested and sold. The above has already decided, and I have nothing to do.

After Defa Construction was sold, there was very little local business left for our branch.

Originally, I wanted to develop the local market through the relationship of Defa Construction, but I have been busy soliciting business for the past two years, and I didn't care about the branch office. Now it is too late to develop. "After Zhou Shen finished speaking, he took a deep breath of the cigarette, and slowly exhaled the smoke, looking at the exquisite bonsai beside him, his eyes were full of unfulfilled ambitions.

At the beginning, he really wanted to do a big job, make the law firm bigger and squeeze into the ranks of the big law firms in Beijing, but Defa Group didn't think so, and always regarded Zhou Shen's law firm as its own legal department. The high-level intrigues do not want the law firm to develop too much, and they are afraid of losing control, so the development of the law firm is restricted.
