Seventy-six We always believe that the law is just!
"Li Dazhuang, what's wrong with you?"
A look of strangeness and confusion appeared on Wang Rongcheng's face, and he asked directly.
In fact, in Wang Rongcheng's impression, Li Gongxiang is a very stable person.
You wouldn't have become so restless just because you and Shen Mu were stimulated outside before, right?
Naturally, Wang Rongcheng didn't know the other party's thoughts, nor did he know that in Li Gongxiang's mind, Shen Mu had been defined as a shameless person who used beauty tricks.
Even Yang Shiping looked at Li Gongxiang with some surprise.
This person is his greatest confidence. Whether his reputation will be ruined depends on his strength.
Unexpectedly, Li Dazhuang, who had always been very steady, seemed to start making a loud noise from outside the court. What kind of plane was this sudden surprise?
"Ah...nothing!"
After a brief gaffe, Li Gongxiang undoubtedly reacted quickly, and he shook his head in embarrassment.
Naturally, he would not express the thoughts in his heart.
Ta-ta-ta...
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps approaching from far away.
Immediately afterwards, a figure in formal attire appeared at the door of Mediation Room No. 3, causing the two people in the room to be slightly startled.
"This Judge Tao is actually a woman?!"
Shen Mu's eyes widened, looking at the figure striding in in professional attire, and secretly complained in his heart.
When she heard the name Tao Zhiji just now, Shen Mu subconsciously thought that it should be a male judge. Generally, only men would use this kind of name, right?
But now it seems that Shen Mu is obviously narrow-minded.
Judge Tao had a serious face, and with his neat short hair, he exuded a heroic spirit, which was not inconsistent with the name Tao Zhiji.
He was afraid of being preconceived in everything. Now after seeing Judge Tao's image and temperament, Shen Mu felt that this name was really suitable.
Other feminine names are not enough to highlight the other person's temperament.
This may also be the reason why Li Gongxiang screamed just now. After all, he had met Judge Tao a long time ago and knew that she was a female judge.
Moreover, Li Gongxiang also knew that although Judge Tao was almost forty years old, he had never gotten married.
This made him subconsciously feel that the difficulty of this out-of-court mediation had increased exponentially.
Looking at the starry eyes of the clerk Lu Fei when he looked at Shen Mu just now, Li Gongxiang was a little unsure. Would Judge Tao be fascinated by Shen Mu's beauty and make some biased judgments?
In fact, it is not as complicated as Li Gongxiang thought.
Whether it is Tao Zhiji or Lu Fei, they both have professional ethics. No matter how much they appreciate Shen Mu's "beauty" in their hearts, they cannot act emotionally in official matters.
It’s just Lu Fei’s words just now that have disturbed Li Gongxiang’s mentality. Even if Judge Tao can do business, the first impression must be very important, right?
"We are now conducting out-of-court mediation on the defamation and plagiarism case of "Endless Glory"!"
Tao Zhiji, who sat in the middle of the table with an expressionless face, didn't have any unnecessary nonsense. He saw that she had looked through the information that Lu Fei had prepared a long time ago and spoke directly.
"Plaintiff, what are your demands?"
Tao Zhiji turned his attention to Shen Mu's side. This was considered a routine procedure. First, the plaintiff would state his demands, and then see how far the defendant could bear it.
The so-called mediation means repeated friction on the conditions of both parties, and finally reaching a result that is satisfactory to both parties. The mediation is considered to be successfully completed.
"Ahem..."
At this time, it was naturally time for Wang Rongcheng to show off his skills. He cleared his throat first, then stood up and looked at the two people opposite him with a serious expression.
"Our client's request is actually very simple. It is to ask the defendant to stop slandering my client, sincerely apologize in front of netizens across the country, and admit that what he did back then was all fabricated!"
Wang Rongcheng spoke sternly, and Yang Shiping's face turned pale as he spoke. He looked at Li Gongxiang next to him for help, and then the latter slowly stood up.
"Judge Tao, I want to emphasize here that our client has not slandered the other party. The script of "Endless Glory" is my client's original work!"
What Wang Rongcheng and Shen Mu didn't expect was that such words would come out of Li Gongxiang's mouth, which made them both stunned.
"So, we do not accept the conditions proposed by the other party. Now I want to talk about our client's demands, which is also to ask the other party to apologize in public and admit the fact of plagiarism!"
The words that came out of Li Gongxiang's mouth immediately stunned Shen Mu.
Could this man be any more shameless?
Listening to what Li Gongxiang meant, it seemed as if Shen Mu was really plagiarizing. This move was so counter-intuitive that Wang Rongcheng didn't even react for a moment.
It seems that they are the defendants and the other party is the indignant accuser.
"Judge Tao, I have here the script of "Endless Glory" that screenwriter Yang Shiping worked hard for three months to write, as well as screenshots of the diary time when he was writing the script!"
Li Gongxiang is indeed a professional lawyer. As he spoke, he took out a stack of information from his bag.
Seeing this, Lu Fei frowned slightly, but without any hesitation, she stood up, took the information, and handed it to Judge Tao.
Before sitting down again, he took a deep look at Shen Mu over there.
As the secretary of this mediation, Lu Fei had naturally seen the information submitted by Shen Mu at that time, and she had a preconceived idea that Shen Mu must have been wrongly accused.
But now Yang Shiping's side has also provided evidence, which makes Lu Fei a little unsure.
As a court employee, Lu Fei is definitely not as emotional as Li Gongxiang thought just now. She would lose her mind just because Shen Mu is handsome. This is inconsistent with her professionalism.
Shen Mu looked very pleasing to the eye, but the fairness in her heart made Lu Fei no longer favor Shen Mu one-sidedly, but restored her professional judicial attitude.
"Moreover, we also have two staff members from Yang Shiping's screenwriting studio as witnesses!"
Li Gongxiang was obviously fully prepared. After submitting written evidence, he spoke out a fact.
While speaking, he also glanced provocatively at Shen Mu and Wang Rongcheng over there.
"The plagiarist ignores the hard work of others and takes other people's results as his own, causing irreparable mental damage to our client. However, we always believe that the law is fair and will definitely give my client justice!"
Li Gongxiang stared at Shen Mu, as if he had been greatly wronged, and finally spoke sternly about the fairness of the law, exuding a holy light.
Yang Shiping, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but admire him, secretly thinking that it was a good thing he was here, otherwise not only would he not be able to say those words on his own, but he might even have compromised early on.
Now not only did he not have to apologize for this matter, but he might even take the endless glory as his own. Thinking of this, Yang Shiping felt faintly excited.
This is a guy who wants to be famous and rich, but is also timid and afraid of getting into trouble.
Under Wang Tai's coercion and inducement, he stood up and said that Endless Glory was written by himself, because he believed that Shen Mu, who had been banned by Wang Tai, could not afford to make waves.
Later, Shen Mu directly said that he had submitted an indictment, which scared Yang Shiping.
If the Queen Mother had not expressed her continued support and even forged evidence to ask Li Dazhuang to intervene on his behalf, Yang Shiping would have gone to Hengzhen privately to find a compromise with Shen Mu.
At this moment, Li Dazhuang did not disappoint Yang Shiping. After several words, he directly turned the black into white, allowing him to see a bright future and great hope for a reversal of the situation.
Those so-called evidences were so cleverly forged that even if they were approached by a professional identification agency, they might not be easily identified. This was all due to the financial power of Mrs. Wang.
In their opinion, Shen Mu only had electronic manuscripts and so-called witnesses.
It’s not like they can’t find these, so what’s there to be afraid of?
Rather than saying that he came to the Guangming District Court for mediation today, it is not that Li Gongxiang came here mainly to rebel.
Now that he is talking eloquently, it seems that the other party is a thief with a guilty conscience.
"Judge Tao, the evidence they provided must be forged!"
Wang Rongcheng was also caught off guard. Seeing Li Gongxiang's aggressiveness, he blurted out.
He couldn't blame Wang Rongcheng for thinking this way, because he had repeatedly studied the evidence provided by Shen Mu, and it was definitely not false.
Since his own side's evidence is true, then the other side must be false, but Wang Rongcheng did not expect that the other side would be so bold.
"Wang Rongcheng, you are also a lawyer, do you know the consequences of saying these things?"
There was a faint sneer on Li Gongxiang's face. He first asked a question, and then said: "But I don't care about the faults of villains, so I won't pursue your unintentional remarks!"
"Lawyer Wang, whether these evidences are true or false, we will have professional institutions to test them. Please be careful with your words!"
At this time, Judge Tao, who was in charge, also spoke, still looking serious and business-like, which made Wang Rongcheng's face turn pale and he secretly thought that he had indeed lost his composure.
For a moment, Mediation Room No. 3 seemed a little quiet. Neither Shen Mu nor Wang Rongcheng spoke. The remaining four pairs of eyes were all staring at them.
"What, do you have nothing to say?"
But Li Gongxiang didn't want to let the other side go just like that. He took advantage of the victory and pursued it. This rhetorical question contained a hidden meaning. He wanted to show that the other side had nothing to say because he was in the wrong.
Judge Tao also stared at Shen Mu. This young man didn't look as flustered as expected, which meant he had a certain amount of confidence.
To be honest, Tao Zhiji was also a little curious at this moment.
Naturally, she had also studied the evidence submitted by Shen Mu, and it turned out to be very similar to the one she had in hand now.
Tao Zhiji, who originally believed in Shen Mu's side like Lu Fei, was a little unsure at this time.
