Chapter 1616: Law Firm Rights Struggle
"Humph!"

Luo Bin, who was hanging up the phone, had a gloomy expression on his face, so he simply called the law firm's executive director.

"Hey Director Zhao, help me find a secretary on Liepin!"

"What! Lina?"

"You're asking questions even though you already know the answer. She has been transferred to the new lawyer Wu Mingfan!"

Obviously, Lina still didn't quite understand Luo Bin's character. She used the wrong trick just now. The arrogant lawyer Luo is a donkey that obeys the will. The more you push him, the more rebellious he will be.

Wu Mingfan, who was in a meeting, didn't know that Lina was about to escape from his grasp, but Luo Bin assisted her by accident.

There were not so many people at the partners' meeting. Excluding a few people who had urgent matters to deal with and Luo Bin who was late and could not come, there were only 14 people in total attending the meeting.

Wu Mingfan was very good at finding his position. He picked a seat at the back and sat there seriously, slacking off.

It seemed as if he was taking notes seriously, nodding from time to time, as if he agreed very much, but in fact there were countless circles on the notebook and nothing serious was happening.

It's not that I'm unprofessional, but there's nothing else to do if I don't slack off. I'm new here and don't understand the specific situation at all, let alone interrupt and participate.

Sometimes it is quite interesting to be outside the situation. It is really fun to watch the excitement. Sitting at the back, I can clearly perceive that the 14 people at the conference table are naturally divided into three factions.

In terms of the number of people on Gu Jie's side, they are slightly less than those on Feng Yin's side. After all, Boss Feng is the director of the law firm's management committee.

Feng Yin and Gu Jie, two originally close comrades-in-arms, co-founded Quan Jing many years ago, but now inevitably cracks are gradually forming between them.

Of course, there are also a few senior partners who remain indifferent. You fight yours and I earn my money. It has nothing to do with me who is the boss!

This is their strong self-confidence. No matter which faction wins, they have to win over others. After all, any struggle ultimately comes down to making money, and they rely on the partners present here.

Rely on those practicing lawyers out there?
The entire Quan Jing will starve to death!
He Sai and Luo Bin's original teaching teachers were both sealed, so the suggestions he put forward were directly opposed by Gu Jie.

"I disagree!"

"This charity center is a thankless task. Boss, our law firm is supposed to make money. I have no objection to leading everyone to do charity, but forcing a lawyer to be on duty there every day is undermining the interests of all lawyers."

The struggle must be within a reasonable range. Feng Yin and Gu Jie both have a consensus that the interests of the law firm must not be harmed.

The reason why she voted against the establishment of the public welfare center was not only because it was He Sai who proposed this suggestion, but mainly because Gu Jie was more realistic and had no time to do these superficial things.

Wouldn’t it be nice to spend more time chatting with clients?
At this time, Lawyer Zhao, a senior partner sitting next to Gu Jie, immediately agreed: "I think Director Gu is right!"

"Everyone is usually so busy that they don't even have time to spend with their children, so how can they have time to take turns on duty~"

This statement won the approval of many partners, even the few people who were standing in the seal position nodded.

"Yeah!"

“It’s really busy~”

"I sorted out documents until the early hours of last night. People say that lawyers earn a lot, but it is directly proportional to the effort we put in~"

"He Sai, I have no problem with doing charity work, but you don't have to be on duty. How about partners and above not being on duty?"

He Sai was anxious: "I said, Lao Hu, why are you..."

"Cough!" Feng Yin, who was sitting in the main seat, just coughed lightly, and the noisy conference room became silent in an instant. This is the deterrent power of Boss Feng.

"Everyone, I understand what you all mean. We are indeed all very busy!"

Seeing that everyone's expressions had eased a little, Feng Yin suddenly changed the subject: "But doing charity is also in line with the current trend!" "Some time ago, I went to a meeting, and the relevant leaders clearly pointed out that we lawyers are encouraged to assume corresponding social responsibilities and extend the tentacles of charity to the masses. We don't want law firms to take profits too seriously~"

"We at Quanjing must actively respond to the policy!"

After this big hat was put on, Wu Mingfan, who had been watching the fun, clearly saw that Gu Jie's face turned a little ugly.

Fengyin is still quite capable, and he is taking advantage of the situation to lend you his pure love!

Does Gu Jie still dare to object?
Do you want to mix it up?
"I'm afraid that next, it's time to give a sweet date after a slap in the face. I need to find a way to calm the anger of the partners, otherwise I won't be able to lead the team!"

Wu Mingfan thought secretly in his heart.

As expected, Feng Yin showed a warm smile on his face and even joked to the senior partner next to Gu Jie.

"I understand that the partners are busy. Look at your hair, Lao Zhao. It's getting more and more like you're surrounding the city from the countryside!"

"I remember more than ten years ago, when you first came to Quanjing, your hair was so black and shiny that I envied you~"

"Hahaha!" With the laughter, the scene became very harmonious for a while.

Wu Mingfan, who was just there to watch, also smiled.

"How about this!" Feng Yin looked like he was thinking hard.

"We can't go against the spirit of the higher-ups. In my opinion, for lawyers at the partner level and above, assistants can take over on duty. This can also be considered as training for interns and giving them a chance to practice!"

"Of course, if there are any difficult cases, we still have to deal with them as soon as possible~"

With such an alternating situation, there was naturally no reason for anyone to object, but they still had to symbolically vote by raising their hands.

As a result, nine people voted in favor, and two people, including Gu Jie, voted against, and the decision to establish a public welfare center was passed almost by a majority.

But everyone's eyes were on Wu Mingfan who abstained from voting. Not to mention the other two veterans, they would never get involved in such messy matters.

But what happened to you, Wu Mingfan!

Shouldn’t he be a die-hard fan of Boss Feng?
Gu Jie, who originally had a sullen face, suddenly became in a better mood after seeing this scene, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

On the contrary, Feng Yin was a little unhappy, but he didn't show it on his face. He just glanced away and then looked away.

"The resolution to establish a public welfare center, except for a few people who abstained because they were busy, the remaining nine votes passed, two votes were against, and three abstentions!"

"Officially approved~"

"If you don't have anything else to do, just go and get busy. I'll leave this charity center to He Sai!"

"The meeting is adjourned~"

Wu Mingfan didn't care about that look, and even ignored He Sai's angry look. Private relationships are private relationships, but there must be a boundary between public and private.

Moreover, he also has the capital to remain neutral. Although he is not as confident as the others who have the resources at their disposal, his confidence comes from his cheap father Wu Qihua.

As the vice-president of the Law School of Renmin University, one of the five prestigious academies and four departments, he may not have much face in the nationally renowned red-circle law firm Jingtian, but Fengyin should not want to offend this level!
Then why should he take the thankless task of getting involved in the power struggle in the law firm? There wouldn't be much benefit if he won, and he would only end up in trouble if he lost.

It's not that Wu Mingfan is just trying to show off his abilities, but Old Wu specifically told him a few days ago not to get involved in these messy things. He probably fears that he can't beat those old foxes.
