Chapter 390: Will It Ever End!
Old Tang actually needs to take on some money-making cases every year since he often has to shell out money for his systemic tasks.
So he must have money on hand, unlike other systems that can just conjure up money out of nowhere.
He still has to earn it bit by bit.
The reason Old Wang is so thrilled this time is that the lawyer fee from this case is outrageously high, almost hitting a "small target"!
It's basically the ceiling for single case lawyer fees in the country right now.
Moreover, Old Wang isn't worried about it getting leaked; even if others knew about this case, they'd think it was worth it!
Not to mention how much money was recovered for you; just this lawyer fee alone is borne by the other party!
This is a winner-takes-all scenario!
So Old Wang must feast and be happy today.
The night was dark and heavy, Old Wang gnawed on sea cucumber in the hotel, juice dripping everywhere.
The female lawyers sat together, Liu Yan had grown a lot, and Wang Jing kept cracking jokes beside her, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
Everyone was happy, and Tangfang City was really lucky to have Tang Fangjing.
Meanwhile, in the capital, Old Tang sat quietly in the hotel room, pondering over the upcoming patent rights case.
He had to carefully consider the claim amount for this case, as although the two cases are based on two different rights, after the hefty compensation from the trade secret violation case, this case certainly won't support a large compensation.
This needs no explanation as everyone would understand it.
After thinking for a long time, Old Tang finally stopped, and his system panel was already full of content.
He decided to relax with his phone for a bit, but when he opened it, he found that the internet was still as lively as during New Year.
Netizens were playing around with all kinds of memes, and Old Tang felt that Jiang Fuzhi was comparable to the "Brother Kun" of his previous life, with internet trolls revealing their chicken feet everywhere.
There were, however, a few paid posters who still wanted to speak, but they were immediately overshadowed by sarcastic netizens.
The alteration in the judgment was too absurd for netizens!
Five hundred million got super doubled, can you say he's not awesome?
How many lawyers can achieve this, so stop hating on my brother!
On the other side of the capital, Jiang Fuzhi had already smashed two phones, the situation was too harsh for him.
It was really just a moment, and he fell from the clouds directly.
In the internet era, building a persona without real strength to back it up is that cruel.
What is fabricated will always be false, no matter how polished it is, there's bound to be a moment of exposure.
"Director, should we now..." the assistant said beside him.
Jiang Fuzhi shook his head: "Let's not speak now, wait until this blows over; don't worry, internet folks have short memories!"
"In the next few days, buy some things like sports equipment, books, clothes, and go to those impoverished areas to donate to the kids, donate a lot, and remember to record videos."
"Once this blows over, we'll post the videos online, and that should pretty much do it."
Jiang Fuzhi may not be a high-quality lawyer, but he considers himself competent in eating this influencer meal.
Netizens look at "doing charity" people with rose-tinted glasses, it's just that he's a bit lackluster.
He didn't commit any heinous crime, just... lost twelve hundred million.
The assistant nodded; whatever you say about this gentleman,
The next day flashed by, and General Manager Qiao got off the plane.
He was back in Tangfang City, ready to return to the company.
He talked tough over the phone, saying he wanted to quit, but at his level, resignation isn't that easy.
You have to understand, at such a grade in a state-owned enterprise, one can switch to being a public servant.
Even if he really wanted to resign, it wouldn't be easy.
So argue as you might, you still have to come back after the argument.
As for the capital side, General Manager Qiao didn't see any further issues; the judgment was already made, and what's left is execution, what else could happen?
He made his way to the company, and no one greeted him; even those familiar just gave a slight nod during this time.
General Manager Qiao didn't want to see Lu Weiyi, but as soon as he entered the elevator, he saw Lu Weiyi inside.
The elevator had only the two of them.
General Manager Qiao hesitated for a long time before saying: "Good morning, Lu."
Lu Weiyi nodded slightly without saying anything, and they stood there in silence.
Finally, the elevator started, and Lu Weiyi spoke up: "Everything's settled on the capital side, right?"
General Manager Qiao replied: "Yes, it's all sorted now, just waiting for execution."
Lu Weiyi didn't say another word, got off directly when the elevator stopped, and General Manager Qiao looked indifferent, as he had already given up.
As for the capital side, he said the truth, really not expecting anything further.
Lu Weiyi returned to his office with a displeased look; while the top dog certainly has authority, dealing with such direct opposition from a subordinate isn't easy.
The most important thing is, now the company has huge troubles, the higher-ups have specifically inquired, and he doesn't even know how to respond here.
At this point, fighting the vice general manager head-on would be rather unwise.
Lu Weiyi sighed; if he had known it'd come to this, he might as well have agreed to the other's settlement at the start.
But unfortunately, there's no medicine for regret in this world...
Time slowly passed, Jiang Fuzhi started doing charity, Jie Jianbin took on new cases, and the relationship between General Manager Qiao and Lu Weiyi returned to a normal colleague dynamic.
This was also inevitable.
