Chapter 538 Make a Bet?

Office of the Director.

After sending the client away, Seal patted Qin Hao on the shoulder and praised him: "Xiao Qin, this time you have made many people in the law firm disappoint."

Qin Hao smiled: "These people definitely do not include you, the director."

Seal was stunned for a moment, then laughed and motioned for Qin Hao to take a seat.

"Xiao Qin, I just took a look at the three cases you took on. They are all infringement cases. What do you think? Are you sure about them?"

Qin Hao knew very well that Seal's concern was not that he lost the case, but that it affected the reputation of the law firm. After all, Qin Hao used the name of Quan Jin's law firm to recruit clients. Once he lost, Quan Jin's would be the one who suffered the loss. Shop sign.

"Director, it is actually difficult to define this type of infringement case, especially infringement by Internet companies. Copyright law only protects expressions, not ideas. I have read the previous first-instance cases of these three companies, and the previous lawyers did not find the right direction. , the other party’s evidence chain is actually not sufficient, and the case can be overturned.”

Seal was slightly surprised. It wasn't what Qin Hao said that surprised him, but Qin Hao's demeanor when he said these words. He was completely different from before. If he wasn't familiar enough with Qin Hao, he would even doubt whether the other party was. What twin brothers.

"Okay, since you are so sure, then I will wait for the good news of your victory."

"I can't say I'm 100% sure, but I will try my best."

After Qin Hao finished speaking, he was about to leave, but was stopped by the seal again.

"You took on three cases at once, and you are afraid that you will be too busy by yourself. Your previous assistant has left. In this way, you can choose one of the current assistants and take it with you first. We will find a suitable one later."

To put it aside, being a leader always speaks beautifully. On the one hand, arranging an assistant for Qin Hao seems to be a reward, but in fact, it is because he is afraid that he will lose the lawsuit and affect Quan Jin's reputation. On the other hand, he does not say that this assistant will definitely Let him use it. If the lawsuit is not settled, he will probably have to pack up and leave.

"Thank you, director."

Of course, Qin Hao doesn't care about Seal's true thoughts. There is a helper who can help him with the work, and he can be lazy, so why not.

"Okay, then go ahead and get busy."

After coming out of Seal's office, Qin Hao went straight back to his office. Seal called He Sai and asked He Sai to cooperate with Qin Hao.

Although He Sai looked down upon Qin Hao, he could only obey the seal's instructions.

Soon, Jose conveyed the sealing instructions to all the assistant lawyers, causing a commotion.

Assistants like Gao Feng who had followed Gu Jie naturally looked down upon Qin Hao.

Most of the assistants had a similar attitude to Gao Feng, each of them silently saying in their hearts not to choose themselves.

Although Qin Hao has signed the contract and has temporarily saved his job, once he loses the lawsuit, he may have to pack up and leave. Being his assistant has high risks and low returns, and everyone is not a fool.

He Sai couldn't help but feel a little angry when he saw that everyone was hiding from the god of plague. Although he couldn't understand Qin Hao's previous behavior style, in any case, Qin Hao was also a serious lawyer, and it was not his turn to do this. The assistant came to dislike it.

"No one is willing, so I'll name them." He Sai glanced at everyone and said forcefully. This is also his usual style.

At this moment, Qin Hao's voice came from behind.

"There's no need for Lawyer He. It's not sweet to force things. It's better if you and I are willing to do this kind of thing."

He Sai frowned slightly: "But, the seal"

"I will explain it to the director." Qin Hao said calmly.

At this moment, Fan Xiaotian suddenly stood up: "Lawyer Qin, can I follow you?"

Immediately, all the assistants stared at him as if they were looking at a fool. He Saibu had finally assigned him forcefully, so why did he keep pushing forward?

He Sai also looked at Fan Xiaotian in surprise, who usually couldn't hit a fart with three sticks: "Are you sure?"

"OK." Fan Xiaotian nodded solemnly.

"Okay, it's up to you." After He Sai finished speaking, he returned to his office with his hands behind his back.

Qin Hao looked at Fan Xiaotian for a few times and looked at the time: "It's almost time to get off work. If you have time, I'll sit down at the cafe downstairs later."

"Oh, okay, I have time." Fan Xiaotian nodded repeatedly.

Qin Hao smiled and patted his shoulder, turned and left.

The assistant office area immediately exploded, Gao Feng said in a mocking tone.

"Fan Xiaotian, what are you thinking? We didn't even have time to hide, and you took the initiative to move forward."

"Yeah, I heard that Lawyer Qin lost all three cases he took on in the first trial. It's very difficult to reverse them. If he loses all three cases, Lawyer Qin might have to pack up and leave. People."

Fan Xiaotian said unconvinced: "How do you know that Lawyer Qin will definitely lose?"

Gao Feng sarcastically said: "Lawyer Qin hasn't won a case in almost a year. Otherwise, why do you think his previous assistant ran away?"

In the lawyer industry, income is linked to ability and connections. If you want to make more money, you must either be extremely capable and be able to help people solve some difficult lawsuits, and be paid a lot of money. However, this kind of income is not stable, or you must have wide connections. Accepting legal contracts from various companies is a stable income, which is more reliable than going to court.

Qin Hao has neither of these. He basically makes a living on the salary of the law firm. Naturally, his assistant can only get the same basic salary. To be honest, he can last for almost a year before leaving. This assistant is also quite has perseverance.

"Just because we didn't win before, doesn't mean we can't win now. I think Lawyer Qin will definitely win this time." Fan Xiaotian said with a smile on his face.

The other assistants shook their heads and thought Fan Xiaotian must be crazy.

Gao Feng was Gu Jie's assistant, and he always said the right thing in the circle of assistants. This time, he was rebuffed by Fan Xiaotian, and he couldn't stand it, so he sneered.

"Then let's make a bet. As long as Lawyer Qin can win a lawsuit, even if I lose, I'll treat everyone present to a big dinner. How about that?"

When the assistants heard that they didn't have to participate and could still have a big meal, how could they let go of such a good thing, they immediately started making noises.

Zheng Mang couldn't stand it and reminded Fan Xiaotian in a low voice: "Forget it, Xiaotian"

Before he could finish speaking, Gao Feng provoked Fan Xiaotian and said, "Why don't you dare?"

Fan Xiaotian excitedly threw away Zheng Mang's hand, gritted his teeth and said, "Just bet, what if Lawyer Qin wins more than one lawsuit?"

Gao Feng was annoyed by Fan Xiaotian: "Okay, if Lawyer Qin wins two lawsuits, I'll treat everyone to a feast for two days. If he wins all three, how about I treat everyone to a feast for a week!"

This made the assistants extremely happy. Everyone knew that a dinner treat for a week was a joke and unlikely to come true. After all, Qin Hao's level was such that he couldn't win a few lawsuits in a year. Now let him He won three games in a row in such a short period of time, barring a miracle.

However, the assistants don't care whether they can have a big meal for a week. The main reason is that the work of paralegals is relatively boring. With this thing, they can have something to talk about after dinner.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Fan Xiaotian packed his things and clocked out of get off work. When he looked up, he found Qin Hao already waiting for him at the elevator entrance.

"Lawyer Qin"

Qin Hao waved his hand to Fan Xiaotian: "Let's go and have a cup of coffee first."

"oh."

The two came to the coffee shop one after another, and were warmly greeted by a waitress wearing a "braised lion's head".

"Hello, welcome."

Qin Hao secretly laughed. Isn't this the heroine Dai Xi of Elite Lawyer? She is working as a waiter here at this time. It seems that the plot time is very close.

"A cup of latte, Xiaotian, what would you like?"

Fan Xiaotian was obviously a little nervous. He was stunned for a moment and then said: "I, I also want a latte."

"Okay, two lattes then." After Qin Hao finished paying, he took Fan Xiaotian to the seat by the window and sat down.

"Please take your time with your latte." Dai Xi enthusiastically served the coffee. Looking at Qin Hao in a suit and leather shoes, a trace of envy flashed in her eyes. Lawyer was a profession she had longed for these years but was out of reach.

"Thanks."

After Dai Xi left, Qin Hao asked curiously: "Can you tell me why you want to be my assistant? As far as I know, this is a hard job."

"I, I." Fan Xiaotian didn't expect Qin Hao to be so direct, and he was so nervous that he couldn't speak smoothly.

Qin Hao patted his shoulder and motioned him to sit down, and smiled: "Okay, don't make it so formal. It's off work time now. I'm not a lawyer, and you're not an assistant. The reason why I asked you to chat in the coffee shop is, Just change to a more relaxed environment and let’s talk openly and honestly.”

Hearing this, Fan Xiaotian's hand that was so nervous that he clenched his fists relaxed a little, sat down again, and said a little embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, Lawyer Qin, I tend to get excited easily."

Qin Hao smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter, but as a lawyer, being excited is not a good habit. This needs to be overcome."

Fan Xiaotian suddenly thought: "I, in fact, have always been restrained, but sometimes..."

"It doesn't matter. Since you have become my assistant, I will help you overcome it."

"Thank you, Lawyer Qin."

Qin Hao saw that Fan Xiaotian was still a little nervous, so he pulled the question back: "You haven't said yet why you chose to be my assistant."

"Oh, that day, I was scolded by Teacher He Sai, and only Lawyer Qin comforted me."

Fan Xiaotian's explanation made Qin Hao amused, and at the same time, Qin Hao secretly lamented that it is not easy for such a simple person to study law these days.

Regarding Fan Xiaotian, Qin Hao felt that it was not that he was incapable, but that He Sai’s teaching methods were wrong. Fan Xiaotian was obviously not the kind of person who had strong ability to withstand pressure, but He Sai repeatedly adopted a high-pressure posture against Fan Xiaotian, again and again. The blow to Fan Xiaotian's confidence.

Later, after Fan Xiaotian left Quan Jin, he quickly became an official lawyer, which is enough to prove this point.

"Xiaotian, no matter what, since you have chosen to be my assistant, we should agree on some things in advance." Qin Hao said seriously.

When Fan Xiaotian heard this, he immediately went to dig through his bag, then took out a pen and paper from it, and was about to write it down.

Qin Hao smiled bitterly and said, "No need to be so solemn, just a few words."

"It doesn't matter, Lawyer Qin, just say it." Fan Xiaotian still looked at Qin Hao sternly.

"First, I will arrange for you to do anything in the future. As for you, if you don't understand anything, you can ask me at any time, but I don't like pretending to understand. Do you understand?" Qin Hao said seriously.

Fan Xiaotian nodded quickly: "Understood."

But then he scratched his head and said, "But Lawyer Qin, Teacher He Sai keeps saying I'm stupid."

"That's just what He Sai thinks. Since you can stay in Quan Jin, it means that your ability is definitely okay, but you just haven't adapted yet. That doesn't matter. My style is completely different from He Sai's. You don't have to worry at all. The problem If you do too much, I will be annoyed. On the contrary, if you pretend to understand and mess up things, I will be unhappy, do you understand?"

"Yes, I understand." Fan Xiaotian's eyes showed a look of surprise. The reason why he was often scolded by He Sai was because He Sai felt that he had poor understanding and always wanted an exact answer to uncertain things and could not draw inferences from one instance.

"Second, the only thing I ask of you is to complete what I asked you to do within the time specified. If any force majeure happens during the process, you must tell me in time. If there is a problem, solve it immediately. Don't try to fool me. I hate smart people."

Fan Xiaotian patted his chest and said, "Lawyer Qin, don't worry, I will never be smart."

After waiting for a long time, Fan Xiaotian asked carefully: "Lawyer Qin, where is the third one?"

Qin Hao smiled at him: "There are so many, just these two. If you do it, you will be a qualified assistant."

"Oh, hehe." Fan Xiaotian scratched his head.

"Okay, let's go back and rest first. We will all be busy starting tomorrow."

Fan Xiaotian was so excited by Qin Hao's words that he even couldn't wait.

Dai Xi looked at the backs of Qin Hao and Fan Xiaotian leaving, his eyes full of envy.

After all, Qin Hao still punched in and clocked in. When he came to the office, Fan Xiaotian was already inside. Not only did he clean his office, but he also made him a cup of coffee, although it was instant.

"Well done."

A small compliment made Fan Xiaotian smile particularly brightly. He had helped He Sai do things before, but the other party would never praise him and would complain that he didn't do a good job.

Sitting back in his seat, Qin Hao suppressed his smile and told Fan Xiaotian roughly the situation of the three cases.

Fan Xiaotian's face became particularly solemn after hearing this. He is also a top student in the law department, so he naturally understands that it is very difficult to win the second instance of these three cases.

"In this way, you can find out the cases in the past two years regarding the failure of Internet companies to infringe lawsuits that are similar to these three cases, and then bring them to me."

There are actually many ambiguities in legal provisions, which is the main reason why the lawyer profession survives. However, generally speaking, most court decisions will be based on some previous cases.

This is why courts are often more cautious when making judgments.

"Okay, Lawyer Qin, I'll go to the archives room right away."

Fan Xiaotian left the office energetically.
