109: It shouldn’t be much, right?
Facts prove that economic foundation is the basis for all operations; as long as there is money, no operation is a problem.
Chengda Law Firm already had a bunch of university students, laborers, and intern lawyers working.
These university student laborers were basically third and fourth-year students, because first and second-year students couldn't even get a chance like this!
It was no joke; what kind of opportunity was it to work on a case with Lawyer Zhou from Jinghai City!
So, basically, everyone present was a professional, at least capable of receiving workers and initially organizing evidence materials.
Their work attitude was even more impeccable!
Zhou Yun, on the other hand, sat in his office, overseeing things; if he encountered a more troublesome issue, such as missing evidence, he would step in to resolve it.
Just then, his phone rang; he picked it up and saw it was an unfamiliar number.
“Hello, Zhou Yun of Zhentian Law Firm.”
Soon, a voice came from the phone: “Hello, is this Lawyer Zhou? I’m Wu Junxian.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yun immediately said, “Wu Junxian?”
On the other side, Wu Junxian involuntarily leaned forward, a smile on his face: “The one from Ousheng Human Resources in Jinghai City, didn’t you specifically send me in before? I was sentenced to probation…”
Zhou Yun certainly remembered him; the potion's physical enhancement was comprehensive, and his memory had also improved significantly compared to before, although it wasn't photographic, he basically remembered key people.
However, at this moment, although he didn't know what the other party meant, at least his attitude was very good.
So Zhou Yun still said, “Oh, Director Wu, what’s the matter?”
“It’s like this, Lawyer Zhou, I was sentenced to probation, and then I came to Changdong City…”
On the phone, Wu Junxian honestly explained his entire situation clearly.
Previous experience told him not to think about lying or trying to fool Lawyer Zhou.
Zhou Yun walked to the window: “So, Director Wu, you’re saying that after probation, you went back to your old ways, specifically running to Changdong, but before you could trick anyone, I arrived in Changdong.”
“Then you’re really unlucky.”
Wu Junxian… Wu Junxian didn't want to speak anymore; Lawyer Zhou was good in every way, except for his mouth.
That sentence was specifically aimed at his face.
Zhou Yun smiled and said, “You mean those people are preparing to deal with me, right? It’s fine, let them deal with me, let them do whatever they want.”
Wu Junxian said, “But Lawyer Zhou, the situation here in Changdong is indeed very complicated; what if someone takes a desperate risk…”
Zhou Yun looked at the exchange points in his account and smiled, “Then it’s fine; if I cower after being messed with, then I wouldn’t be Zhou Yun.”
“However, Director Wu, your attitude towards reform is still very good; in the future, don’t do things that go against your conscience.”
After chatting a few more sentences and hanging up, Zhou Yun couldn't help but laugh; this Director Wu's luck was truly bad.
On the other side, Wu Junxian put down his phone, and the burden on his mind finally lifted.
At least this time he was definitely fine; if he could make some contributions to this case and have Lawyer Zhou and the Bureau of Justice of Jinghai City put in a good word for him, that would be even better!
Probation correction and these matters are handled by the Bureau of Justice.
The labor agencies in Changdong were actively preparing, and Zhou Yun was also actively preparing in the three cities.
Zhou Yun’s operational process was similar to before: first, select a lucky person to initiate arbitration, and then win the arbitration.
Only by achieving this step can the subsequent process begin, because we are not a common law country, so for the same case, two Courts may make different judgments.
Not to mention labor arbitration, different outcomes are very normal.
Soon, Zhou Yun brought five case files to an Arbitration Committee in a district under Changdong City and submitted the cases at the window.
The staff inside, initially expressionless, seemed to discover something after seeing the application form, then quickly took another look, and immediately exclaimed, “You are… Lawyer Zhou Yun, from Jinghai?”
Zhou Yun nodded: “It’s me. Have you heard about me?”
The staff member smiled upon hearing this: “Of course! We, who handle labor arbitrations, all know about what you did in Jinghai.”
“The evidence in your videos almost piled up like small mountains; the colleagues in Jinghai were really unlucky, haha.”
It was truly joyful for colleagues to see other colleagues working overtime; anyway, many people on their side laughed themselves to death after watching the videos back then.
The staff member was speaking when he suddenly seemed to remember something, quickly looked at the case situation in his hand, and looked up, saying, “Lawyer Zhou, don’t tell me this time…”
Zhou Yun said a little guiltily, “Well… for academic research, you know, the sample size needs to be larger, so you see…”
The smile on the staff member’s face disappeared; he looked down at the materials, then up at Zhou Yun, seemingly gritting his teeth as he said, “Lawyer Zhou, about how many?”
Zhou Yun thought carefully, then said a little uncertainly, “It shouldn’t be much, probably around 25,000 based on the current situation, definitely less than 30,000.”
“Many people went home for the New Year and didn’t want to bother, so the sample size isn’t that sufficient.”
“If we divide it among each district, each district would have at most seven or eight thousand, which shouldn’t be much, right?”
This is called not much?! This is half a year's worth!
“How about I meet your leader first? After all, you see, this kind of thing will definitely trouble him later.”
The staff member nodded gloomily, his bright smile gone; it was Chinese New Year, how could such a thing happen!
Soon, Zhou Yun met with the Arbitration Committee leader and had a very good discussion with him.
At least, if everyone cooperated, it could save these units some face, and face was the most important thing for these units.
Or rather, as long as they could save face, the internal matters were easy to discuss.
Of course, this was only possible for Zhou Yun; if it were another lawyer, you wouldn't even be able to sit in this office.
The conversation ended, and Zhou Yun left immediately; now it was up to the arrangements.
………
Three days passed, and Gu Licheng still had no good solution.
Everyone did discuss it together, but they ended up arguing with each other during the discussion.
The simplest issue was who would pay; how to pay this money. Smaller companies believed that larger companies should pay more.
Larger companies, however, believed that everyone was the same, so why should they pay more? Their large scale was also the result of their own efforts.
Some people thought that they didn't owe much in wages and shouldn't pay that much... In short, it was a mess.
In fact, this was the normal situation; without a unified organization and a unified guideline, a group of colleagues gathered together simply couldn't coordinate.
They already had competition, and no one would submit to anyone else.
So much so that later, some people even started saying that even if Zhou Yun sent them in, they wouldn't want their competitors to gain an advantage!
Seeing a competitor gain an advantage over them was more unbearable than killing them.
There was no way, truly no way; Gu Licheng could only discuss with a few close friends to see if they could solve it themselves.
Just then, he received a phone call.
“Mediation, right? Okay, I’ll definitely be there. Oh, by the way, there’s something: you all know about Lawyer Zhou, right? Can I bring a few friends to talk with us?”
“No one wants to blow things out of proportion, right? I also want to resolve the issue quickly.”
“It’s okay, right? Great, thank you so much.”
After hanging up, Gu Licheng thought for a moment and then began to notify everyone individually, and one of the messages was sent to Wu Junxian.
“Old Wu, you’ve dealt with Lawyer Zhou before. Can you come along this time? See if you can help us find and fix any loopholes.”
Not long after, a reply came.
“Director Gu, I have no problem. You saw the video before, right? I was tricked by that Zhou Yun; he said he wouldn’t mess with me, but he was actually playing word games.”
“Here’s the thing, tomorrow you must hold your ground, don’t compromise easily. I’ll teach you what to say…”
