What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Today, the platform he was on actually called him!

The moment Wen Weilin answered the call, he almost threw his phone away. His registered account mobile number was his private number, known only to his family and some close relatives and friends.

But the platform called directly, claiming to be an operator, asking if he was willing to display his real name on his account...

This was a new policy that started last year, where major platforms gradually implemented a "real-name system for Internet celebrities," meaning those with a certain standard of followers had to display their real names.

It was initially set for accounts with one million followers, but then it dropped to five hundred thousand, and it's easy to imagine that the threshold will get even lower in the future.

And at that moment, after hearing Wen Weilin's shakiness, although a bit surprised by his trembling voice, the operator still said, "That's not it; we don't make the display mandatory."

"However, if you don't fill out your real name in the front, your account's traffic and income will be restricted to a certain extent, including recommendation restrictions, trending show restrictions, advertisement revenue sharing restrictions, and tips income restrictions..."

Of course, that couldn't be compulsory, and the platform didn't have the power to enforce it, but they could limit your traffic and income, pressuring you into revealing your real name.

Hearing this, Wen Weilin hastily said, "I disagree with filling it out, go ahead and restrict it, do it now!"

After saying this, he hung up in a hurry and immediately deleted the call log. Once everything was done, Wen Weilin finally breathed a sigh of relief and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

The development of events was entirely beyond his expectations. He had fantasized about becoming an internet celebrity before, and now he indeed became one, but the process of gaining fame was somewhat off...

Hopefully, the platform's restrictions would have some effect. Really, what are those people online doing all day long?

But the call also sobered him up a bit; as a judge, he naturally knew what power he held in his hands and was even more aware of the power of the judicial system.

If any leader really wanted to find out who "Wen Cha Zhuo Jiu" was, it wouldn't be difficult, considering his personal information was already with the platform when he registered his account.

Moreover, with the increasing online traffic and the netizens' expert level at doxxing, it probably wouldn't take long before his personal information leaked out. What should he do then...

Logically, simply cancelling his account would solve the problem, but after all, it's a viral account and then there's the income...

So even though he was very clear-headed, Wen Weilin still held a glimmer of hope. What if... What if he could get through this?

In the capital of Hanbei Province, Zhao Tielong was really enjoying himself these days. At his age, to be honest, he was much less interested in women and luxury, focusing more on the pleasure of the mind.

You see some middle-aged men, they don't like anything but fishing, and they're addicted to it, with an especially strong addiction.

Many women get depressed looking at it. What's so great about fishing? Sitting there for half a day and not catching a single fish.

But what they don't realize is that these men are enjoying themselves.

Especially when they catch a big fish, the sense of achievement and thrill is so intense that they must parade the fish from one end of the street to the other three times over!

For Zhao Tielong, when he really "calculated" the other party's plot, that thrill was basically akin to a fisherman catching a big fish.

Therefore, these days, everywhere he went, he would talk about it, to the point where even his friends were getting tired of hearing it.

Today, as he was preparing to see the comments from netizens, he discovered that "Wen Cha Zhuo Jiu" seemed to be under traffic restriction. How could that be allowed?

A sagely figure who "enters the game to defeat halfway" couldn't be restricted like that; he had to double down on his efforts!

People like him who went through relocations are no different from second-generation rich. To be honest, as long as they don't have a crazy idea to start a business or something, it's almost impossible to spend all the money they have; it will only grow more and more.

Thus, Wen Weilin found that after that operator said his traffic would be limited, his traffic seemed to have increased even more, and the rate of new followers was faster than before...

And it wasn't just the traffic revenue; many people were reaching out to him for advertisements, each offering higher fees than the last. Read new chapters at My Virtual Library Empire

Additionally, MCN agencies were asking if he wanted to sign a contract to be an influencer for live-selling products, and the fees they offered were astounding, amounts that he could never earn in his lifetime as a judge...

Wen Weilin was completely at a loss about what to do, though he still held onto a sliver of hope that he wouldn't be discovered.

Despite the shocking situation with the thirty-one cases, Ding Deshui's case was still proceeding in an orderly manner.

At this moment, outside the Changlu County Detention Center, lawyer Zhou was waiting to meet with his client while also on the phone.

That's right, after the case occurred, Ding Deshui and Ding Detu's families both approached him, asking him to be their defense attorney.

In Changlu County, lawyer Zhou was already considered a capable person, able to speak with many leaders, and he also had a good relationship with Ding Deshui, an acquaintance.

In a society run by familiarity, people habitually turn to those they know well when something happens.

Lawyer Zhou's level of expertise wasn't high, but he thought there was no way to plea for acquittal in this case, so it had to be a mitigating defense.

Then it was the three-pronged approach of a criminal defense lawyer: bail, trial, and pleading for a lesser charge.

To achieve this, he needed to get the forgiveness of the victims and ensure a guilty plea and acceptance of punishment, and this time, Zhou planned to persuade Ding Deshui to plead guilty and accept his punishment.
