Chapter 394: Someone is being serious, that's great! (Seeking monthly tickets)

~15 min read 2,905 words

The First Instance judgment has been released; facts prove that there are still quite a few people paying attention to this case.

Mainly, everyone wants to see the situation where the operator gets taught a lesson.

Then they discovered, the First Instance was actually only won on the breach of contract penalty?

This made many people feel uncomfortable.

Fang Xiaoying has been eating melons at high intensity during this period, constantly chatting with people using her "Big Yingying" account.

Now she also realizes that one truly cannot be overly critical of many people seeking legal aid.

Since the regulations are that way, then one must follow the regulations.

One cannot just stop doing it because it might lead to the interests of frontline employees being damaged; if you really want to talk about it, basically many of our complaints end up with frontline employees taking the blame.

Then you say, does this mean one cannot file a complaint?

It is just because this incident is very special, the amount is small, but the impact is large, so it caused such a big discussion.

Therefore, after the First Instance judgment came out, Fang Xiaoying quickly expressed her own views.

"This isn't reasonable, right? You don't use it anymore and still have to pay money? No matter which aspect you look at, it's not right, why on what grounds?"

As a normal person, the perception is just like this: I used your service and gave you money, that is very normal.

But I am already prepared to cancel the account and you still collect this money, that is definitely not right.

However, seeing that the Tenda Employee filed an appeal made her feel a little more at ease; at the very least, Tenda is still that unyielding.

This made her think of her own affairs, but the problem she encountered is more complex; whether she can sue, and how to sue, she is not clear at all.

She flipped through a lot on the internet and has never seen a similar case.

This made Fang Xiaoying very hesitant.

She will graduate in July of this year, so how about going to Tenda for an internship first?

That "Jingzhou Big Smart" article clearly stated that in this company, even an Intern can use the legal aid service.

There is still some time before the Second Instance hearing, and the public opinion on the internet has gradually calmed down, once again being occupied by various entertainment news.

Who divorced whom, who refuted a rumor, anyway, all kinds of chaos.

Especially now, the situation on the internet changes too fast; traffic stars take the stage one after another.

Many traffic stars who look exactly the same, you don't even know who is who, but looking at the situation on the internet, you just feel like they seem very popular.

Then many people are eating melons, and they themselves are there feeling baffled: who is this guy? Why have I never heard of him...

Amidst such complexity, the Second Instance is about to open.

It's just that Chen Wenjing looked at the name of the opposing Lawyer in the Copy of the Complaint with a blank expression; wasn't it Zhang Wei and Wang Daoren? How did it become Fang Xujing now?

A person's name is like the shadow of a tree; Zhang Wei and Wang Daoren are nobodies, that goes without saying.

But who is Fang Xujing? That is famous far and wide, okay!

It goes without saying back in Modu, and after these two years in Jingzhou, the reputation is even greater than before.

Many Case Analysis of the Supreme People's Court have used this person's cases; what this represents is self-evident!

Most importantly, Chen Wenjing, who is in his thirties this year, had also attended this Teacher Fang's class back then...

And anyone who has attended Lawyer Fang's class will basically have experienced his suffocating debate method.

It's not about winning or losing, but he will rub your IQ on the floor, making you feel, why am I so stupid...

No martial virtue, no martial virtue at all; didn't win the First Instance so you change the Lawyer for the Second Instance?

He had the heart to shrink back, but there was no way; he is the legal counsel, he collects a salary, if he retreats in this kind of situation, who else is there to go up?

He could only prepare even harder, and if he won by then, wouldn't he become famous...

However, practice shows that when the gap between people reaches a certain level, this is something effort cannot make up for.

In the Second Instance Court, Chen Wenjing's gaze had a trace of dullness.

Opposite him, Lawyer Fang sat quietly, picking up his water cup to drink water from time to time, with a smile on his face.

When entering the Court, Lawyer Fang's eyes were not quite right; looking at him was like a hunter seeing prey.

Just a moment ago, the two finished the Court Debate.

What he didn't expect was that the opposing Lawyer Fang completely abandoned the factor of Standard Clause and only debated from the perspective of the basic principles of the Civil Code.

The simplest truth: I didn't use it, so I don't need to pay; it's just that simple.

But using such a simple truth, he was refuted until he was speechless.

He shifted the focus of the dispute from the Standard Clause to whether one should pay if the service was not provided.

No matter how many Standard Clauses you have, this thing can be regarded as a Service Contract.

And if the service was not provided, then there is no need to pay money.

The Second Instance changed the judgment; the verdict supports all of Wu De's claims, whether it is the breach of contract penalty or the monthly rent.

Of course, the judgments between Courts are not the same; if one has carefully studied some judgments, one would know this point.

Depending on the different laws applied to a certain fact, the result obtained may also be different.

In the gallery, Zhou Yi smiled; Lawyer Fang has been preparing for this Lawsuit wholeheartedly during this period.

When Lawyer Fang gets serious, there is basically nothing left for anyone else to do.

However, this Chen Wenjing is not bad; at the very least, his level is decent, and he could confront Lawyer Fang for a few rounds.

But no matter what, this Lawsuit was finally won!

Wang Daoren and Zhang Wei also came to observe; they still have to study hard; if they were to review it later, they would definitely think of this point.

But once you are in Court, you are very easily led by the rhythm.

Theory and practice are always two different things; Zhou Cainiao is a very typical example.

The Second Instance was won; inside the Jingzhou branch, the relevant leaders wanted to curse again.

But there is no way; a Lawsuit lost is lost; compared to various methods of Legal Aid, a Court judgment is the most powerful!

Fang Xiaoying was very happy, not only because this lawsuit was won, but she also discovered that when facing some special lawsuits, that Lawyer Fang beside A Yi seemed even more interested than they, the parties involved, were!

Then what if it were a case that had never been seen before...

Inside the business hall, Manager Zhou and Li Xiaojie were also surprised after seeing the verdict, and immediately began to sigh with emotion.

This is probably the only person in many recent years who has truly followed the legal process to the end.

Fortunately, after the Company issued a statement, they would not do anything more to the two of them.

But it also felt like this persistence was completely unnecessary, because even though the lawsuit was won, it was only that 138 yuan.

It just made Nudong Company lose a little face.

But even if they lose more face, Nudong Company is still that size; there is nothing you can do about it.

As for the other audience members of Zhou Mouren, they felt even more gratified; A Yi has already started taking on this kind of company, so as for what he will do in the future, they dare not even imagine!

Another feeling is that it still has to be Lawyer Fang, Lawyer Fang is still the reliable one!

Look at these other lawyers, like Wang Daoren or Zhang Wei; you can tell just by their hairstyles that they are not strong figures.

In fact, for this kind of similar case, if you have consulted at a law firm, you would know that there are actually no lawyers willing to take it.

It is not because of background or anything, it is simply that the amount in dispute is too small; people will tell you they won't take it.

It is just that with such a big commotion, will the authorities above intervene?

But it is a pity, there is only one Lawyer Fang, sigh...

But just at this moment, a notice appeared silently on the internet, and within a very short time, it sparked a craze.

"Regarding the online reports of Nudong Company Jingzhou Branch obstructing users from canceling their accounts, we have already noted the relevant public opinion, and the Handong Provincial Communications Administration has already intervened to investigate..."

The rest were just some boilerplate phrases, such as that any problems will definitely be investigated.

Once this notice came out, it immediately triggered heated discussion among Netizens.

Whatever breach of contract fees or monthly rent, for the vast majority of Netizens, these are all excuses; the core of the problem is not this money, but using this money to obstruct users from canceling their accounts!

It is not much, but it is disgusting!

Generally speaking, when an investigation notice is released online, the actual start of the investigation must have been much earlier than this.

As for why it was not the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, that is because it is not yet the turn of the big shots above to step in.

After all, to put it bluntly, it is just a problem in Jingzhou.

Inside the Handong Nudong Company headquarters, Hong Zong could no longer spare the energy to be angry.

"Since the investigation has already begun, tell them to cooperate fully; whether it was malicious obstruction must be investigated clearly!"

At the same time, the Handong Company also had to start an investigation; this is different from other enterprises that Zhou Mouren had been persistent with before.

Still that saying, some things don't weigh four taels if they aren't put on the scale, but once they are on the scale, even a thousand catties won't stop it.

Chen Wenjing returned to the Company; the second instance was lost, needless to say, the vice president in charge of the relevant business within the Company would definitely criticize him.

But there is no way, his skills were inferior to others.

So Chen Wenjing could only think about how to endure it when he was criticized later; arguing back was impossible.

In this situation, if you dare to argue back, the criticism will be even fiercer.

As a result, there was no movement for a long time after he returned, so he dialed the phone number of a very familiar colleague.

"Why didn't the leader deal with you? Look at the news yourself, our leaders are now too busy to criticize you."

Look at the news?

Chen Wenjing hurriedly went online, saw the news that the Handong Provincial Communications Administration was going to launch an investigation, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed.

…………

The footsteps of spring were already halfway through, and the weather was warming up.

Some time had passed since the second instance verdict of Wu De suing Nudong Company, but Wu De had been complaining the whole time.

Although he was the party involved in this incident, when all the media reported it, they would mention him as a Tenda Employee.

Name? Sorry, no name.

So much so that even now, many people know that someone sued Nudong Company over a hundred yuan or so, but they don't know who that Plaintiff is.

Previously, the Handong Provincial Communications Administration said they would investigate, but until now there has been no result, and many people have actually forgotten about this matter.

Inside the Chairman's office, Zhou Yi was sitting inside, and sitting outside was Lawyer Fang.

"This place of yours is not bad; come to think of it, I hadn't paid attention to it before!" Lawyer Fang laughed.

He had been to Tenda before, but it was always for work matters, and he hadn't sat down properly to look around.

Today was because he had free time, so he wanted to come and take a look.

More importantly, his research had recently hit a bottleneck, lacking actual cases; there was no way, the cases he wanted were too rare.

"It's passable." Zhou Yi laughed: "We've started recruiting Interns again recently, so there will be more people."

The two were just chatting when suddenly Zhou Yi's phone rang; he picked it up and saw it was a message from Yuan Jie.

"Pigeon Spirit, the investigation results are out!"

What investigation results? After all, it had been a while, and even Zhou Yi himself had forgotten.

Opening it, he realized that it was the Handong Provincial Communications Administration that had already given the investigation results for Nudong Company!

After looking carefully, one can only say that the punishment from above is quite powerful!

"Notice on the Investigation and Handling of Nudong Company Jingzhou Branch Obstructing Users from Canceling Accounts Without Justifiable Reasons!"

Actually, the punishment for the communications company alone would be fine, it was only 50,000 yuan.

But following that, there was also the punishment for the Handong Provincial Company!

Fan Zongjingli of the Jingzhou Branch, as well as the vice president in charge, and the management personnel of the Guangming District Branch below, were truly disciplined from top to bottom.

The comment section had already exploded.

"Damn, who still says this persistence is meaningless? Who would believe it, just because of a hundred-something yuan, as a result, a whole bunch of people are getting warnings and whatnot."

"Really, I just feel we need more people who take things seriously. Look at how many companies nowadays don't act like human beings; they really should be properly reined in!"

"Who was it earlier saying this matter wouldn't have a result? Can't you just let the bullets fly for a while? Investigations take time too!"

This was a rebuttal to some previous remarks claiming that Nudong Company was the favored child, so how could it possibly be punished?

It was surely going to be a case of turning a big problem into a small one and a small one into nothing.

But as it turned out, the fine was a small matter, but the Circular Criticism from the top down was certainly no small thing.

Inside the business hall, Manager Zhou was nearly stunned upon seeing the results of the handling; in all her years in the industry, this was the first time she had seen such a situation.

If she had known today would come, would the higher-ups have handled it directly when they reported it back then?

But now, it was too late for regrets; fortunately, they, as grassroots Employees, would not be affected.

The content in the investigation results was very detailed, not just regarding the Breach of Contract penalty, but also the issue of "gifting" Traffic Packages in violation of regulations.

Because according to Nudong Company's regulations, this type of Traffic Package must be agreed to by the other party!

And after this incident, many people in Jingzhou discovered that canceling numbers and mobile number portability had become much easier to handle!

Originally, when they tried to cancel numbers or handle mobile number portability, there were all sorts of difficulties; it was either this Traffic Package or that issue, and all of them required a Breach of Contract penalty.

And sometimes, when it was clearly a multi-month Traffic Package, it would suddenly become longer when one wanted to handle mobile number portability.

Now it's better; one can book directly online, and the process goes very smoothly.

It's great that someone takes things seriously.

At the entrance of Tengda Company, the Interns preparing for interviews had already formed a line.

Fang Xiaoying, who had traveled all the way from Modu, had a determined look on her face: "Even if it's just for that case, I must get into Tengda!"

Third update. Thanks to stonemen, another newcomer, Feimaowuyu, and Wenchidage. Unsurprisingly, this case was again considered to be a smear, with people thinking it was completely impossible... However, the actual case is real, it's just that there was no Lawsuit; the punishments and such are all real. You wouldn't not know how difficult mobile number portability was before, right? In reality, some companies are even bolder than in novels, directly extending the term of a Traffic Package by twenty years without permission, and then demanding a Breach of Contract penalty for mobile number portability. You could say I wouldn't even dare to write that in a novel... However, in the real case, that number was a premium number.
