Sitting by the window seat were Lu Ming and Li Guan.
"Little guy, are you too stingy? You invited me to drink coffee and you are still here? Doesn't it match your wealth?" Li Guan said with a smile.
Lu Ming coughed and said, "As for my feelings, every time I come here, I think of how good you were to me, Mr. Li!"
"Stop being so glib. I don't think you should drink coffee. You drink honey oil every day, right?" Li Guan smiled, but his eyes became more kind.
Looking at Lu Ming, Li Guan added: "I recently took on a young apprentice. Christine introduced her. She suddenly became interested in law. Of course, it is also a compulsory course for her. She just started a little early. That little guy
, I think I’m smarter than you, and I’ll introduce you to him if I have the chance.”
Lu Ming felt a sudden change in his heart and said to Grandma Li, please stop messing around. You wanted to set me up with Christine's daughter, but now, I still don't like that girl's movie, even if I watch it from beginning to end.
, I still don’t know who she is.
"Don't get it wrong! He's a little kid, and he has a distinguished status. You, a rich man from this land, are not worthy of even ten of them!" Li Guan sneered, obviously guessing Lu Ming's thoughts from the grimace on Lu Ming's face.
Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
"Congratulations, you have been successfully promoted to the third rank!" Li Guan smiled again.
"Thank you for your support... But, can't we go to four sections at once?" Lu Ming smiled playfully.
Li Guan glared at Lu Ming, "As a lawyer, or a third-level lawyer, you don't care about the rules anymore, do you just want to take shortcuts?"
Lu Ming scratched his head and picked up the coffee.
"Qianxing, what do you think about the industry monopoly of large companies or certain organizations?" Li Guan suddenly asked.
Lu Ming was startled and said, "This is too trivial to say."
Li Guan pondered and said, "What about from a legal perspective? What do you think of our current anti-monopoly laws?"
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Then I'm full of words. I don't really agree with the basic principles of the current anti-monopoly bill. For example, our most important anti-monopoly principle is the guiding ideology of Judge Burton. He said in "
As mentioned in "The Antitrust Paradox", the only indicator of antitrust is 'consumer' welfare. No other goal can be used to weaken this goal, and the maximization of consumer welfare is reflected in price. Therefore,
To judge whether monopolistic behavior should be interfered with, to evaluate whether anti-monopoly measures are implemented well or not, and their ultimate correctness, is to see what impact they have on prices."
"I disagree with this."
Lu Ming thought about it and said: "In addition to economic efficiency, I think economic democracy should be the target of anti-monopoly attention. Some hidden trusts use hidden means to form economic alliances to unify pricing, which may bring about economic growth in the short term.
Its high efficiency reduces costs, or it would rather suffer a short-term loss than exclude competitors from the market. When it truly forms a monopoly on the market, it has complete pricing power, and consumers become the ones on the chopping block.
Let the fish and meat be harvested! At that time, if we try to fight against monopoly and try to attract new investors into the field, it will be a bit late, and the industry will suffer a lot."
These are all examples from previous lives.
Li Guan pondered and nodded, "Oh, that's what you think."
Lu Ming smiled and said: "If I expand it, I would like to say more, but I won't talk about that when I have coffee with you today."
Li Guan smiled and said: "Okay, then you can go to court and tell the case. This case will be yours!"
"What?" Lu Ming was stunned.
"The case between a farmer in Milton State and the state's Beef Association, I'll ask someone to send the file to you when I get it." Li Guan smiled: "Qianxing, take this lawsuit seriously, and in terms of antitrust, we will also have a mainland case in the future.
Come out of school."
Milton State? It's a western Western state. Lu Ming was even more stunned. He didn't pay attention to what Li Guan said later and asked: "Who do I represent?"
"Farmer, Douglas and I were classmates in college, but he didn't study hard and dropped out of school early. He went home to raise cattle. He is a good man." Li Guan smiled, with some memories and longing in his eyes.
Lu Ming suddenly thought: "You mean, I have been promoted to the fourth rank this time?"
Only when you reach the fourth rank of senior lawyer can you take on any lawsuits throughout the empire.
Of course, federal entities such as the Western Regions, Japan, and the four northern provinces are another matter, and it depends on local laws.
Li Guan was helpless: "You guys have always known how to bargain. Can't you really not fight this case as a third-level lawyer? I took it in the name of your law firm. Don't you have several fourth-level lawyers in your law firm? Then you will be the deputy defender.
Isn’t it easy to lead a defense? Let me teach you?”
With that said, Li Guan took out a check and handed it over.
Lu Ming was stunned when he saw the amount. It was a check with a denomination of 10,000.
"This is all I can offer. You can fight this lawsuit well. You are considered a hirer by me. Don't charge the Douglas family any more."
Lu Ming was helpless, "Grandma Li, although I made some money, I didn't make it by being a rogue lawyer. Your friend, can I charge an arbitrary amount?"
He handed over the check and said, "I can't accept this." Although the judge has a high salary and a good job, 10,000 yuan is still a very high number. It is not only Li Guang's life savings, but also half his life. Li Guan
There should be some investment, but if you add up your net worth, it would be pretty good to have 30,000 to 50,000 yuan.
Of course, I heard that Li Guan's family was originally wealthy, but that's another story.
"Then I'll transfer the money to you later. I didn't pay for this money. I will settle it with the Douglas family. Otherwise, if I kidnap you, do you want you to fight the lawsuit for me for free?" Li Guan smiled and said, "I'll pay him.
You got a big discount, which is worthy of my old classmate."
Lu Ming nodded and would find a way to return the money to Mr. Li when the time comes.
Is the farmer crazy? He is willing to pay 10,000 yuan to litigate, but he is afraid that most of it will be paid in advance by Guan Li.
Thinking about it, I have had some time recently. Everything in Longgang is proceeding in an orderly manner. The land acquisition for the railway line has begun to prepare for construction. I have temporarily eased with the Hu family. When Commander Hu finds out that he does not want to give any shares, he will face the next step.
It's a storm.
As for going to Zhenjiang to go to school, summer vacation is about to start, so I have to wait until school starts before going there.
"Okay, when the dossier arrives, I will study it carefully." Lu Ming said with a smile.
Li Guan said: "In addition, it is the Hanzhou case. The two states are next to each other, so you handled it together. This case is your specialty and involves the Mainland Doctrine. It is best for you to come."
Lu Ming was stunned: "Lu Zism?"
"That's your theory of adverse appropriation! Christine has summarized it, and you have published several relevant articles in legal journals. Now, some people call your theory the Mainland Doctrine, but it is just a prototype.
, after you finish this lawsuit, you will also perfect your mainland doctrine."
Li Guan glanced at Lu Ming and said, "After these two lawsuits are settled, as long as you perform normally, you will be free for a year."
Lu Ming smiled bitterly: "What kind of lawsuit is this?"
"It's a village in Hanzhou, a village formed by reclaiming wasteland. Now that the original owner of the wasteland has returned, it's quite troublesome."
"Am I not a special consultant of Tunghai University School of Law? Sometimes I go to give lectures to students. One of the school's gatekeepers came from Hanzhou to make a living, and is related to the village chief." Li Guan smiled and said, "Ex.
A few days ago in the cafeteria, he plucked up the courage to ask me about this issue, and I thought of you. Sometimes, the courage of disadvantaged groups needs to be rewarded, right?"
Lu Ming was helpless, "Okay, I'll take it, I'm his prize."
Li Guan smiled happily.
Lu Ming rubbed his nose, Hanzhou? I stopped by to see little Meizhen. Summer vacation is coming soon. I want to see if she needs to do anything by himself.
