Chapter 249: A True Warrior Dares to Face a Bleak Life!
A Yi, Zhou Yi—no matter who sees these two names, they will have the same thought: is this the same person?
Director Liu knows; when that internet celebrity called A Yi published the corresponding Investigation Report, the General Administration had already begun an investigation.
It's just that without the raw data, a one-sided investigation isn't going very smoothly, and truthfully speaking, while over five hundred samples are a decent amount, they are still a bit insufficient.
It's not about anything else; anyone who has studied statistics and probability knows that a single set of sample data cannot actually fully reflect a result.
And here, whether it's booking hotels or ordering takeout, the source of the samples is that Company called Tenda, which results in these sample data being very singular.
If one wants to make the evidence more sufficient, there must be diverse sample data.
Therefore, the investigation progress on the General Administration's side has also been relatively slow.
As it turns out, this person named Zhou Yi has actually sent them exactly what they wanted!
That is, more diverse sample investigation results!
Not just Tenda; inside, there is also a lot of random investigation data.
Not only from Jingzhou City, but also Lincheng, and even other places.
Moreover, after summarizing and categorizing this data, one can similarly see trends like "members pay more, long-term users pay more."
And through preliminary verification, it can be known that these raw data are all authentic.
So, under these circumstances, with these things in hand...
"Director Liu, what do you think we should do now?"
"Notify the other party that we have decided to accept his report and begin Case Filing and investigation!"
They were already investigating, because the enterprise is in their Modu; the General Administration is supervising, and their Modu regulatory department is the one executing it.
Pausing, Director Liu remarked with emotion: "This young man is not bad!"
He left one thing unsaid: the other party seemed to have calculated all of this, step by step; while fighting a war of words with those enterprises on the outside, he had hidden an ace up his sleeve!
The investigation results published were indeed a bit lethal, but not entirely fatal, so whether it was Chengdu Company, Ah Huang, or Xiao Lan, they weren't actually particularly worried.
Because if things really came to it, they could actually still protect themselves, but with this new portion of data added, it's different.
When such diverse, precise, and strongly inductive investigation results are placed before people, no one can deny that the other party's so-called "algorithm" indeed possesses some form of price discrimination!
He really has the other party firmly in his grasp.
It's not that the other party is too incompetent, but because from beginning to end, they never thought that someone would really pay such a high price just to investigate this result.
Not long after, Zhou Yi, who was waiting outside, received the notification that his report had been accepted.
Not bad; the things he handled while in Modu are already resolved, and next, he needs to take a trip to the Imperial Capital to file a report there as well.
As Zhou Yi traveled on the road, the First Instance verdict in Jingzhou City had already come to an end.
No one from Chengdu Company appeared in court, so Lawyer Fang fought what could be called the easiest lawsuit of his life; he read his script, and the lawsuit was won.
As for whether the other party will Appeal, that is their freedom.
Habitually greeting the judge, Li Xusheng, Lawyer Fang left the Court, went home to pack briefly, and headed straight for Modu!
He needs to fight two lawsuits in Modu next, and one in the Imperial Capital.
Zhou Yi has already notified him that these three companies are likely playing for real, so this time the lawsuits definitely won't be simple.
Thus, Lawyer Fang prepared even more diligently; simple as the case facts might be, for Lawyer Fang, a case is never judged by the standard of just "winning."
To put it bluntly, winning the lawsuit is just the most basic guarantee for the client, and what Lawyer Fang wants to do is to rub the other party into the ground from head to toe in court!
This is just a little hobby of his...
When he was young, he was very hot-headed, so he often did this; later, as he got older, he became a bit more peaceful. In the last Dreamland lawsuit, he hadn't even gotten to perform yet, and the other party had already knelt.
He believes they will hold up this time, having caused such a big stir.
Revisiting an old haunt, Lawyer Fang couldn't wait to have some fun!
The situation online is truly magical; after all three companies announced they had called the police and posted their Indictment, in the words of the Netizen, the pressure was back on A Yi's side.
Because almost as soon as the three companies released their notices, some well-known Self-Media online, especially some legal Self-Media, had already started jumping out to analyze the situation.
Whether on B-Hu or short video platforms, many industry insiders, after long-winded analyses, asserted that A Yi was likely suspected of the crime of damaging commercial reputation and product reputation.
Likewise, the conclusion that A Yi infringed upon the three companies' Right of Reputation was being spread wildly.
So much so that now, such comments have appeared in Zhou Yi's comment section.
"I, Han Xin, am a thief?"
There were audience members of Zhou Yi who asked him where exactly he broke the law, just parroting what the Self-Media said.
"Regarding the determination of infringement of Right of Reputation..."
It was just copy-pasting; some expert said this, said that.
There are quite a few legal experts in Zhou Yi's comment section, so they also started posting long comments to reply.
From the composition of the Right of Reputation to how to match it with real-world cases, they explained that A Yi did not infringe upon the other party's Right of Reputation.
It's a pity that such long-winded replies only got one result.
"What are you even saying? They are experts, what are you? Please, if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense, okay? If you're so good, you do it!"
This remark made the brother Zixing Yaoyue so angry he nearly exploded; he naturally didn't have much fame outside the circle, but within the circle, although not as famous as Lawyer Fang, he was still somewhat well-known.
He knew in his heart that the other party was likely just a brat, but he was still driven to a mental breakdown by this sentence!
On the spot, he took a Photo of his two certificates and posted them.
"I don't understand, is that it? I've been a Lawyer for over ten years, and I don't understand?"
Meanwhile, in Hanxi Province, inside a Small Residential District, Li Zihao, who had just started high school, looked at the reply in front of him and felt a bit caught off guard.
He is the "I, Han Xin, am a thief" from online; he doesn't know much, belonging to the type of pseudo-Legal Blind.
Actually, the most annoying people in this world aren't the Legal Blind, but the pseudo-Legal Blind.
Thanks to the development of the internet and the rise of short video Self-Media, many people have appeared who seem to know everything under the sun, but in reality, don't even have half a bucket of water's worth of knowledge.
Especially in the legal field, they might have just occasionally seen a conclusion online, haven't analyzed it carefully themselves, and then can argue with people for half a day based on that.
And they are firmly convinced that what they see must be correct!
Little do they know, those things on the internet were very likely seen by the other party on the internet as well, a direct nesting doll effect.
Take, for example, marital rape, which is currently a subject of great debate in both the judicial and legal circles; although there have been many precedents, there is still much controversy over whether a husband can be the subject of the crime of raping his wife.
Therefore, our current judgment on marital rape is based on analyzing specific cases individually; this topic could be expanded into an entire legal thesis.
However, many people on the internet, after reading a few half-understood remarks, will directly conclude that as long as the other party is unwilling, it is marital rape.
On this issue, Zhou Yi had also discussed it with Lawyer Fang, and Lawyer Fang gave an example at the time.
He said that Zhang San and his wife fell in love freely, married freely, and obtained their marriage certificate in accordance with legal regulations.
After marriage, Zhang San's wife liked the "half-refusing, half-welcoming" style.
That is, she wanted to resist a little, and then she would feel it was more exciting.
As it turned out, one day, Zhang San's wife cheated, and then she was unwilling to have relations with Zhang San.
But Zhang San didn't know that; he hadn't investigated, so how could he possibly know?
So he thought his wife was still the same as before, half-refusing and half-welcoming. Now, the problem arises: does this behavior of Zhang San count as rape?
Then Lawyer Fang also said, if we go a step further, if Zhang San's wife usually likes SM, ah, likes bondage, then under such circumstances, does Zhang San's behavior count as rape?
To tell the truth, the Zhou Mouren of that time was completely dumbfounded after hearing this example.
It must be said, legal professionals are actually quite "saucy" sometimes...
The example is extreme, but Zhou Yi understood once again what "based on facts" really means; our country does not follow case law, and even Guiding Cases issued by the Supreme People's Court are handled on a case-by-case basis.
Back to the main topic, it is said that at this moment, Li Zihao didn't know what to say; he hadn't expected that there would actually be a Lawyer in the comment section of this Up Master called A Yi!
He had often said things like "If you can do it, you go," or "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense" in the past, but he never thought that this time, a guy who really said "I can do it" and "I am just better than them" would appear, and he was instantly dumbfounded.
Moreover, the way the other party posted the two certificates was also deliberate; underneath was a mobile phone, and the phone displayed his recent reply, with the two certificates placed right on top.
This feeling is like seeing someone Pretending to be Cool under a certain game video, saying that this is playing like trash, and then you mock them, "If you can do it, you go!"
Then the other party turns around and posts a screenshot of being a Challenger in the first tier, and says, "Welcome to challenge, welcome to a duel."
He had a mind to argue one more time, but Zixing Yaoyue said, "You can come find me to verify the authenticity, I will provide food and lodging, or you can private message me your address, and I will come find you."
Honestly, Zixing Yaoyue, who is already over forty years old this year, really didn't expect that one day he would actually be arguing online just like a young person.
But there was no help for it; the other party's remarks were truly too infuriating!
And on the internet, there are really quite a few similar remarks, just chasing trends, "We are just analyzing it, it doesn't mean you are definitely committing a crime."
So people will always add a sentence at the end, "This is just a personal opinion."
But at the same time, remarks like "Request to ban A Yi" have already started to rise crazily in popularity.
Obviously, if you are serious about small things in daily life, that's fine; no one will care about you, at most they will curse you for having too much time on your hands.
But now you have started to meddle in the affairs of big Companies; can't you just kneel down properly? You have to stand up, right? Who gave you the courage!
Usually, everyone gets along fine, and suddenly such a person pops up to stir up trouble; how can that be tolerated!
Presenting facts and reasoning sounds good, but many people don't like it; can't you be more obedient? You only know how to file a Lawsuit, only know how to go to court, only know how to send people inside, right?
This kind of rhetoric grew more and more intense, but it did not form Cyber Violence like before.
No one dared to actually attack Zhou Yi online, or harass him with phone calls or anything.
Once bitten, twice shy; so many people on the internet have been sent inside by him because of Defamation and Insult, so everyone still thinks it's better to be cautious.
"A Yi made his name by being serious. I admit that his initial seriousness was indeed being serious, but the later seriousness is truly obsessive. If a Company provides a service and you think it's not good, just don't use it. Why do you have to be like this?"
"Exactly, doing business is about mutual consent. If you don't want to, you don't have to use it. We still want to use it!"
"I can only say, this is a society where traffic is supreme..."
In such an atmosphere and with such rhetoric, Zhou Mouren had already rushed back to Modu from the Imperial Capital.
When Lawyer Fang saw Zhou Yi, the other party was sitting comfortably in the hotel getting a massage.
"Lawyer Fang is here? So fast? You guys are done over there?"
Lawyer Fang smiled and said, "Done, a quick battle for a quick decision. How about it, can you handle it this time? Do you want to be depressed again?"
"I've already thought of the routine for you. Listen to this: Internet celebrity A Yi, because he could not bear the Cyber Violence, developed severe depression."
Zhou Yi laughed when he heard this; being depressed again had already become a joke between him and Lawyer Fang.
These days, anyone, man or ghost, will get depressed. Anyway, they are all fine before something happens, and then when something happens, they come down with depression.
By now, depression has been completely demonized; I can only say, this is probably life.
"Lawyer Fang, you don't need to persuade me. Lu Xun once said, 'True warriors dare to face a bleak life and dare to look squarely at dripping blood!'"
Isn't it just wanting me to be banned? It doesn't matter, let the storm come more violently!
He didn't say the last sentence out loud; it was too shameful.
When I didn't have the system, you wanted me to kneel; now that I have the system, you still want me to kneel. Then wouldn't I have the system for nothing!
If I'm not an Up Master, does that mean I won't be serious anymore?
That doesn't conflict, right?
Zhou Yi scrolled through his phone; the storm of public opinion indeed did not attack him openly, but all kinds of sarcastic remarks, similar to "Why don't you donate money if you're so rich" and "Can you sleep at night being so heartless," were everywhere.
Finally, in such an atmosphere, a blue-background announcement was issued.
This announcement came from the Ningchang District Public Security Sub-bureau, stating that they had noticed the public opinion on the internet.
Then they had indeed received reports, and now, after investigation, they determined that internet celebrity A Yi did not have any criminal circumstances, and they would not proceed with Case Filing.
The announcement was issued, and suddenly those who had been saying A Yi was going to go inside this time were dumbfounded.
This meant what it meant; it meant that this rhythm had just begun and was immediately smashed to pieces.
Because if they could get A Yi inside, even with a Suspended Sentence, it would mean he could never be serious again.
As a result, now, the relevant departments actually came out to explain it directly!
For a time, discussions arose everywhere, but fortunately, there were still lawsuits; at the very least, they had to make A Yi pay until he was penniless.
He has money, doesn't he?
The time had already arrived at the third day; at the entrance of the Ningchang District People's Court, Fang Dazhuang had already gone in early.
Meanwhile, on the road outside, the Chengdu Company legal counsel Lv Yan had already stepped out of the car wearing a professional suit; she felt she was in good form today.
After careful research, she discovered that this case still had potential, not like what the supervisor had said.
After all, no Lawyer wants to lose the lawsuit they are fighting.
She knew that the man named Zhou Yi was an Up Master, and the other party's cases were all fought by Fang Dazhuang!
Yes, that very Fang Dazhuang, the Fang Dazhuang who had all sorts of rumors surrounding him in Modu.
Back when she first learned of the situation, Lv Yan felt she had been scammed.
Are you kidding me, letting me go and fight a lawsuit against Fang Xujing?
But fortunately, the opposing authorized agent was a young girl named Zhou Xinran, so that was okay.
Afterwards, Lv Yan locked herself in her room and struggled bitterly, thinking about how to win this lawsuit.
So, she didn't pay attention to the Court notification that the other party had changed their Lawyer.
A Lawyer can of course be changed, especially in the past, as it was basically determined by the law firm.
The reason is very simple: your agency contract is signed with the law firm, and which specific Lawyer is sent is decided by the law firm, so they can change the Lawyer.
The current procedure is a bit more complicated than before, but a Lawyer can still be changed.
So when Lv Yan saw the slightly bald man chatting with the judge in front, she was a bit surprised; that back was too familiar.
She herself was a postgraduate student at Huadong Political Science and Law, so she also recognized this big shot who often came to give lectures, and a question appeared in her heart.
How could this person be here? Shouldn't he be in Jingzhou fighting a lawsuit?
No, it must be that she saw wrong.
While she was hesitating, it seemed her high heels made a sound as they stepped on the ground, and the man turned around, immediately smiling: "Lv Yan, right? You are now the legal counsel for Chengdu Company?"
Boom! Like a bolt from the blue, Lv Yan was stunned on the spot.
It was actually him!
…………
Zhou Yi sat at the Defendant's seat; having gotten used to the Plaintiff's position, being a Defendant for once didn't seem bad.
Just looking at the scene, Zhou Yi couldn't help but want to cover his eyes.
Once Fang Dazhuang enters that so-called "court state" or "Court Debate state," he basically has no humanity.
He never cares who is on the opposite side, especially when his desire to perform is off the charts.
It was miserable, truly miserable!
The viewpoints that Lv Yan had painstakingly come up with after thinking for a long time were refuted by Fang Dazhuang as worthless.
Moreover, he would use some inexplicable words to mock her, paired with that "Is that it?" expression; honestly, Zhou Yi felt that if he were on the opposite side, he would want to rush up and have a real-life PK with Fang Dazhuang right now!
Too miserable, a capital M for miserable; specifically, one could ask Lawyer Zhou, she is clearer about this kind of situation.
Anyway, by the end, Zhou Yi could see that Lv Yan's complexion was already extremely pale, as if she would cry out at any second.
"I don't know where your company's legal counsel learned law; this kind of most basic thing, even people who haven't studied law know it, why don't you know it?"
"Do I need to teach you the Constitutive Elements of the Right of Reputation? I don't think so..."
Zhou Yi didn't know what happened in the end; perhaps the judge felt it was a bit too miserable and ended the Court Debate session early...
Without any surprises, Zhou Yi won.
And the first moment he won, Zhou Mouren directly posted the Judgment after blurring it.
"I heard someone said they wanted me to lose everything? Sorry, let you down, I won this case."
Once the post was made, those who had previously been saying they wanted to ban A Yi collectively lost their voices.
The thirst-quenching chapter is here, good afternoon everyone, thanks to Wuliao ing, Kuangkuang Tiantang, Jushou Bingxu, Jiehou Bumai, YFeng, Wenchidage, Chana Wuyan, Xuan aya, Bingshan Shang de Laike, Canglan Zuixia, Shuyou 150 Dage, Taoshen Shi Shei, thanks to the brothers for the tips, recently feeling weak, today I can't make up for the missed updates..
