73: What is Legal Pioneer?
Zhou Yun's video once again ignited the internet, or rather, it was because there were simply too many buffs stacked in it.
The issue of unfinished buildings had always been a hot topic online, and coupled with Zhou Yun's miraculous handling and the heartwarming ending, anyone who watched it would have to say, 'Well done!'
Although such cases are basically unreplicable, it at least allowed many netizens to understand the intricacies behind unfinished buildings.
Zhou Yun truly broke down the entire process for everyone to see, including how money was transferred, what kind of people needed to cooperate, and where the violations occurred, all explained very clearly.
Even if they argue with someone in the future, they can at least state their points clearly.
It was already morning, and Zhou Yun slowly opened his eyes. It was still most comfortable sleeping at home, even though he hadn't lived in this home for many days in total...
First, he opened his phone and checked it. As expected, his backend private messages had exploded again.
Zhou Yun would not turn off his private messages because many viewers would contact him for consultations through them.
And generally, whenever he had time, Zhou Yun would provide some answers and, incidentally, select some suitable cases from the private messages.
Without paying further attention, Zhou Yun directly washed up and went out. Today, he had to handle the matter of transferring law firms.
He arrived at Tianhe Law Firm, and the receptionist on the first floor was still Xia Nianqin. Upon seeing Zhou Yun, she quickly came up to greet him warmly.
"Lawyer Zhou, you're back!"
Zhou Yun nodded, then silently walked to the second floor.
Xia Nianqin sighed as she watched Zhou Yun's retreating figure. Who would have thought that the lawyer who was once so suppressed he could barely make a living could now reach this point?
But now, Kang Xiaoyu should be the most bewildered one, right?
She didn't want a man like him, but insisted on being a mistress to such an old man. Now, well, she's famous in the industry, isn't she?
Zhou Yun naturally didn't know Xia Nianqin's thoughts. Upon reaching the second floor, he headed directly to the Director's office.
The lawyers on the second floor were all looking at him. After all, he could be considered the most famous lawyer in Jinghai City now.
At least online, Zhou Yun's name directly overshadowed those "seniors."
Kang Xiaoyu was still sitting among the crowd. She also saw Zhou Yun, and her expression was very complex.
Under everyone's gaze, Zhou Yun entered the Director's office.
Inside the office, Jiang Qiming looked up, and his face began to darken when he saw Zhou Yun.
However, before he could speak, Zhou Yun directly said, "Approve my transfer application quickly. I'm in a hurry. I still have to have lunch with Director Zhuang after I'm done."
It hardened, Jiang Qiming's fist hardened. But as he glared, Zhou Yun directly rolled up his sleeves.
"What's wrong, Director Jiang? Do you have any objections?"
Looking at Zhou Yun's arm opposite him, Jiang Qiming instantly calmed down. He suddenly remembered that this guy was the type who would act without hesitation!
The internet had been praising this person to the skies recently, what nonsense, what kind of good lawyer throws punches at the drop of a hat?
Before, he could still say he was the Vice President of the Lawyers Association and could suppress him. Now, there was no way to reason with him in any sense. It was truly frustrating!
With a dark face, Jiang Qiming signed and stamped the document. Zhou Yun then said, "Then goodbye, Director Jiang. Don't worry, I'll still be in Jinghai in the future."
"I remember everything you did to me, I will never forget it. Let's play slowly."
After speaking, Zhou Yun left with a smile. Who said he was a good person? He, Zhou Yun, had never said that.
He was just a lawyer who became a bit reckless after getting a system. Did Jiang Qiming think everything would be fine once he transferred law firms?
Jiang Qiming was stunned. This person... this person is a damn lunatic, isn't he? It's not over yet, is it!
But he didn't even dare to say a loud word...
No, I must vent my anger tonight!
...
After another trip to the Bureau of Justice, Zhou Yun arrived at Zhentian Law Firm with a pile of materials.
"You're finally here. Did the guy surnamed Jiang do anything? Come on, come on, I'll get it done quickly for you," Zhuang Zhenrui said with a smile.
After completing the formalities as quickly as possible, Zhuang Zhenrui led Zhou Yun to an independent office.
"This is your office, and... Xiao Duan, come here for a moment."
Soon, a young man ran over. Zhuang Zhenrui introduced him, "This is Xiao Duan. Tell him if you need anything. He's a good hand. How about he be your assistant for now?"
"If you want a female assistant, that's also fine. The firm..."
Zhou Yun waved his hand upon hearing this and said, "No need. I don't need an assistant for now. Xiao Duan can just do his usual work. I'll call him if I need anything."
"It's all up to you. In short, since you're here with me, you can do whatever you want. Treat this place like your home!" Zhuang Zhenrui said directly.
Zhou Yun smiled upon hearing this and said, "Then what if I sleep in the office?"
"I already said, treat this place like your home. You can sleep wherever you want, provided there are no female lawyers around," Zhuang Zhenrui joked.
Everything was settled. Zhou Yun came to the office and sat down. From now on, he wouldn't have to worry about those trivial matters and could focus on cases.
He looked at the system panel. There were no tasks displayed now, so he probably had to activate them himself.
However, a character panel had appeared.
Name: Zhou Yun
Gender: Male
Level: Junior Lawyer (0/5)
Title: Legal Pioneer (Wearing this title can increase criminal case completion rewards by ten percent)
Zhou Yun understood everything else. Junior Lawyer was fine; after all, those previous tasks were clearly for novice lawyers.
As for "Legal Pioneer"... After carefully reading the description, Zhou Yun realized that this title could only be obtained if the number of people sent to prison within the last year was greater than five.
Judging by the system, this title seemed very difficult to obtain and quite advanced.
It wasn't that difficult. He just did it casually and got it.
Never mind this for now. First, I'll go eat, then look for suitable cases.
According to the system, these five cases must meet certain standards to be activated, and the client's satisfaction must be "very satisfied" for them to count as completed.
After lunch, he returned to the office to sleep. A folding bed was specially placed in the office, which could be set up during the day and folded down for a rest at noon.
He took out his phone and casually scrolled through videos. Just then, Zhou Yun saw a video that had a relatively high trending score!
It was posted by a netizen named "Refute and You're Right."
"Refute and You're Right": Lawyer Zhou's rights protection this time was very successful, and everything seems good, but I want to ask, what about the rest of those people?
"If I remember correctly, the video said that this community has nearly two thousand households, but in the end, how many households did Lawyer Zhou help get liquidated damages? It was seven households."
"After the developer was arrested, it's clear that the Bank can't compensate anymore. So, can I say that Lawyer Zhou's actions made these homeowners lose their way to protect their rights?"
"As a professional lawyer, Lawyer Zhou, I think he should know this point. So why didn't he inform everyone?"
"I specifically interviewed two other homeowners of that unfinished building to see what they had to say."
Two people wearing masks appeared in the video, saying, "I just think it's unfair. Why can those seven families get liquidated damages? Why? Aren't we human too?"
"Why didn't Zhou Yun inform us?"
Although their expressions couldn't be seen clearly through the masks, it was evident that both believed they were very "reasonable."
Watching this video, Zhou Yun immediately laughed. Here it comes, finally that familiar taste.
He originally thought there were no more trolls online, but now it seems there still are. And Zhou Yun felt there was an eighty percent chance that this person was a fellow professional.
Ordinary trolls focus on efficient insulting, with methods varying depending on the platform.
For example, on some platforms, they excel at simple yet extreme verbal abuse, not beating around the bush, aiming for a direct hit that breaks your composure with a single sentence.
While on other platforms, due to stricter rules against swearing, most of the insults are sarcastic.
However, Zhou Yun didn't care. Only mediocre people are not envied. Colleagues are often the biggest rivals.
There's no reason to criticize a colleague; they just can't stand you and will go to great lengths to find fault with you, otherwise they feel uncomfortable.
Watching this video, Zhou Yun wanted to laugh. He couldn't be bothered to deal with this person, and there was no need to, because the comment section had already been taken over by his audience.
He'd better check his private messages first for any suitable cases.
At the same time, in Jinghai City, a lawyer named Zheng Biling looked at the comments on her video, her mouth almost twisted with anger!
