Chapter 1693: Had to Accept

The crowd discussed as they left the courtroom. Zhou Andong sat there without moving. After the people had almost left, he stood up and walked toward Hearing Guan Shengjie and Du Youwei, who were organizing their manuscripts.

"Brother Jie, Sister Wei!"

Although Zhou Andong was wearing a mask and sunglasses, Hearing Guan Shengjie and Du Youwei recognized him at a glance.

"When did you arrive?" Du Youwei said: "When I came, I said you might come, but I looked around and didn't see you."

"I came when the trial started and sat in the back." Zhou Andong asked: "Are you finished? It won't be pronounced until four o'clock, let's find a place to sit for a while."

"Let's go!"

Hearing Guan Shengjie and Du Youwei packed up the documents and put them into a document bag.

"We didn't eat breakfast this morning. Since you, this local tycoon, delivered yourself to our door, we have to knock you for a good meal."

Zhou Andong laughed: "Look at your ambition. If you have the ability, eat me poor."

Du Youwei laughed: "To eat you, this local tycoon, poor, one Hearing Guan Shengjie definitely isn't enough. If all the people in the country add together, eating you for two months should be about enough."

As the group talked and laughed, they came out and saw Dong Herong and Gong Juhua surrounded by a group of reporters.

In addition, Han Li Hui and the Huang Taichang family were also blocked by many reporters.

"Lawyer Han, the trial is very unfavorable to you. Are you satisfied with this result?"

When the Huang family heard this, their faces suddenly turned gloomy. The trial process was indeed not smooth and unfavorable to them, but they were confident in the result because the presiding judge was one of their own.

"Everyone be quiet."

Han Li Hui raised his hand and pressed it down, and the messy scene gradually quieted down.

"Debts must be repaid, and murder must be paid for with life; this has been the case since ancient times. And this case is obvious to all. The defendant operated in violation of regulations, and when city management law enforcement personnel investigated and dealt with it according to law, he did not obey management and had a conflict with law enforcement personnel. The act of illegally depriving others of their lives constitutes the crime of intentional homicide, so there will be no accident in being sentenced to death."

At the same time, on the other side, Dong Herong was also answering reporters' questions.

"Dear media friends, the verdict will be pronounced at four o'clock in the afternoon. It is inconvenient for me to disclose too many details, but I have confidence in this case, because I believe that the law is just, and the presiding judge and the members of the trial group will be fair and just, and can give my client and the people a satisfactory result."

Zhou Andong and the others stood outside the crowd watching. When Dong Herong and Gong Juhua came out from a group of reporters, they waved their hands.

"Old Dong!"

Dong Herong looked up. He didn't recognize Zhou Andong, but he recognized Wang Wentian and Huang Yali, and said something to Gong Juhua beside him.

"Chairman Zhou is over there, follow me."

The two walked over quickly: "Chairman!"

Zhou Andong waved his hand: "Find a place, sit down and talk."

The group didn't stop, nor did they take a taxi. They found a restaurant with a relatively good environment near the court, and then asked for a private room.

After everyone sat down, Zhou Andong introduced Hearing Guan Shengjie and Du Youwei to Dong Herong.

As soon as Dong Herong heard this, his eyes lit up. He was still thinking about finding a media outlet with great influence to reveal the relationship between Wei Hongyan and Huang Taichang.

Unexpectedly, the Chairman knew reporters from the People's Daily and the Youth Daily, and they looked like they had a very good relationship. These were all his own people, so things would be easier to handle.

"Chairman, there is a situation that is very unfavorable to us."

"What situation?" Zhou Andong said with a smile: "I saw you killing all sides, questioning the judge until they were speechless, what else could be unfavorable to us?"

Dong Herong said: "The presiding judge is inconsistent with what was notified before the trial. The presiding judge notified before was named Li Zonglin, and now the presiding judge is named Wei Hongyan.

The third uncle of the deceased Huang Fan is the director of the City Appearance Office, Huang Taichang, and his wife is the director of the District Women's Federation, who has a very good relationship with Wei Hongyan, so this time we are very likely to suffer an unfair trial."

Zhou Andong frowned: "Do you have a response?"

Dong Herong shook his head: "Changing the presiding judge without notification is a violation of regulations and laws, but before the first-instance result comes out, we have no way.

Therefore, we can only wait until the verdict is pronounced. If the result is not ideal, when we appeal, we can take this matter as the most important reason for appeal. If the other party doesn't have a bigger background, it will definitely be sent back for retrial. But if the local area also operates in the High Court, once the original verdict is maintained, we will have big trouble."

Zhou Andong thought thoughtfully: "You mean, let the media expose this matter and put pressure on the other party or the forces behind them."

"Yes!" Dong Herong looked at Hearing Guan Shengjie and Du Youwei: "This needs the help of Reporter Guan and Reporter Du."

Hearing Guan Shengjie said with a smile: "Do you have evidence?"

Dong Herong said with a smile: "I am a lawyer. How could I talk nonsense about things without evidence?"

Hearing Guan Shengjie nodded: "As long as you have evidence and this matter is true, even if I don't have a relationship with your Chairman Zhou, I will expose it."

Dong Herong laughed: "Actually, I am also taking precautions. If this Wei Hongyan is a bit sober, she won't engage in black-box operations. After all, this case has too much influence."

"Indeed!" Hearing Guan Shengjie nodded: "I just came back from Ali with your Chairman Zhou, and I haven't recovered yet, and I was sent here."

Zhou Andong laughed. These days, the news that he donated supplies and funds to Ali and went to the disaster area personally had been all over the sky.

Especially the news that he was going to invest in Ali had caused a strong reaction. Now many people were doubting the authenticity of this news.

Because everyone knew the situation in Ali, no one would say anything about Zhou Andong donating money and supplies to the disaster area—saying that this guy had so much money that it was overflowing from his pockets.

But as a businessman, donation and investment were two different things, and Zhou Andong was such a shrewd person, how could he invest in Ali?

Therefore, many people were watching, and now they were just waiting for Zhou Andong to stand up and confirm this matter.

As long as he admitted it, there would definitely be people following in his footsteps to invest in Ali.

They chatted while eating in the restaurant, and didn't let the sudden change of the presiding judge affect their mood.

Their mood wasn't affected, but Wei Hongyan was a bit uncomfortable.

At this time, all the members of the trial group were looking at Wei Hongyan, because they all knew that Wei Hongyan's relationship with the Huang family was extraordinary.

Wei Hongyan was very conflicted in her heart. She knew the complexity of this case better than anyone, and the degree of attention was unprecedented.

Everyone thought she took this case because of her relationship with the Huang family. In fact, it was completely not the case. She wasn't a fool either, jumping into a pit herself because of so-called friends.

In fact, she didn't even expect that the Huang family would have a relationship with the Vice President of the Provincial High Court, and she was also forced to accept it after receiving a call from this Vice President. ===== CHAPTER 1694 =====
