Chapter 1248

Humans are a very strange kind of animal because humans possess high intelligence.

What intelligence brings is not just letting us use tools and think, but also letting us have a more independent and complete personality.

Animals don't have very high intelligence; they cannot give birth to an independent personality. For animals, instinct is the first driving force for their existence.

If they are hungry, they will forage; if they are sleepy, they will find a place with a sense of security and lie down to sleep. They won't think about things like self, existence, or the future. This is a unique trouble for highly intelligent biological humans.

But at the same time, this also means that human behavior patterns can be mastered.

If an animal is hungry, it is impossible for it not to eat for any reason; instead, it is possible that it has a greater demand for food due to some external stimuli.

But humans are different. When human behavior patterns are forced to deform, it is possible to further deteriorate, and of course, it is also possible to be positive.

The President was facing such a problem. In psychological behavior, it is called the "broken window effect." When a person's bottom line is broken once, continuous external stimuli force him to continue to retreat, and he will break his own bottom line again and again to retreat.

From the beginning of pleading guilty, to saying some things according to the instructions of the prosecutors, in court, he admitted that he incited construction workers to confront the Wanli Group because he felt threatened by the Wanli Group here.

"This is an enterprise that is not threatened by the labor union. This is also something we are unwilling to see and cannot appear. That's why we discussed letting them (Wanli Group and Lanse White) return to the path we think is correct."

When the President said this sentence in court in front of all the listeners and news media reporters, even the judge's face showed an expression of surprise!

The judge even specifically asked, "Do you know what the words you said mean?"

The President nodded, affirming the judge's question. "I know."

"In fact, we have always been like this. This is a complex social relationship, Your Honor. I don't know how to describe it specifically."

"We, that is, the labor union, and capital forces, as well as workers, have formed a strange ecology that is contradictory and mutually demanding."

"Wanli Group and the Labor Introduction Agency broke this balance. This will cause huge changes in the labor-capital relationship in our entire state. Once the labor union cannot continue to play an important role in it..."

He said, looking at the Presidents of major industry labor unions he knew in the audience, whose faces were as ugly as the bottom of a pot at this time, as well as the special commissioners of the Labor Federation. "We will become worthless!"

"Because people found that in fact, without our existence, nothing special will happen. Whether it is workers or capitalists, in fact, they can solve problems themselves."

He withdrew his gaze, ignoring the people who had already stood up and glared at him. "I want to apologize to everyone who was hurt in this matter. It was my greedy desire that harmed you. I'm sorry."

"I also want to apologize to Wanli Group. Originally, everything shouldn't have happened."

"I'm sorry to those who trusted me, and I'm sorry to every labor union staff member. I didn't truly put the interests of workers first as we imagined ourselves."

"I'm sorry, this is my problem."

The scene was suddenly a bit noisy. Many reporters couldn't help but start to throw out sharp questions one by one loudly.

The judge hit the gavel hard and shouted "Silence." After expelling two reporters, the order in the court returned to normal.

The judge sighed. He didn't know what had happened, but he knew that this matter would become a very special "typical event."

The words that this President said here would be published in important newspapers in the Federation and even the world, becoming a hot spot of public opinion recently.

"Adjourn for ten minutes." The judge stood up, tidied up the documents and notebooks on the table, and quickly left the judge's seat. Others also left one after another.

The President was taken back to the detention room, and the discussion in the court suddenly became louder.

Lawyer Luo Ben was also at the scene, as well as the lawyers in his law firm who helped Lanse settle this case. They sat in the audience.

Unfair competition itself is just a civil case, but it involves economic crimes such as social moral fraud and fraud, so it turned from a civil case into a criminal case, so this case was handed over to the Prosecutor's Office to do.

The process of criminal cases is different from the process of civil cases. As a public prosecutor, the prosecutor does not need Lawyer Luo Ben and his partner to do any work in court. They only need to sit in the audience and wait for the verdict.

"Clean and neat," Lawyer Luo Ben commented in a low voice.

The lawyer beside him was a bit emotional. "Even if there are many such cases, I won't be afraid. It only takes a little time to solve it. It's too easy!"

"To be honest, since the end of the mock classroom in university, I have never fought such an easy case!"

He said, and couldn't help laughing. "And our employer is a generous boss, and he gives a lot of money!"

In fact, they didn't do any complex work. They provided some clues and requirements to Lanse, and then Lanse made a phone call and everything was solved.

Whether it was collecting evidence or sending evidence to the Attorney General, it was a green light all the way. He even began to suspect that even if there was no strong evidence, Lanse could forge evidence, and the Prosecutor's Office and judicial departments would also admit the authenticity of these forged evidence.

This is the origin of "victory is always outside the court." Some cases haven't been opened yet, and the sentencing result has already come out. This is not a joke!

If the law really needs to give a real answer and a result in court, then the Federation would have been in chaos long ago!

Facing his colleague's emotion, Lawyer Luo Ben seemed very relaxed. "You will get used to it. After all, he is one of the richest people in the world."

"As long as you work hard, you even have the opportunity to open a law firm of your own!"

This is perhaps one of the ultimate demands of every lawyer: to have a law firm of one's own, then undertake various lawsuits, become the most unique one in the upper class, and maybe even be able to step into the political arena.

The lawyer's face was full of longing for a beautiful future life. "I will work hard."

For this lawsuit, they no longer had any doubts.

Time passed very quickly. Ten minutes later, the judge returned to the court with the team. After some procedural problems, everyone sat back, and the trial continued.

The public prosecutor, that is, the tall prosecutor, and the President cooperated well in some aspects. In less than twenty minutes, they completed all the processes and gave the verdict in court.

Because the President had an active and voluntary confession performance, and his attitude of pleading guilty was good, and he had obvious repentance behavior, after a short discussion in court, the President was sentenced to nine months in prison and fined fifty thousand dollars.

If you don't consider the need to go to jail, this is actually a painless punishment, but with a real sentence, it is a bit painful.
