Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

Chapter 141 Clear price tag? Yao Liting's story

Sincerity Insurance Company rejected the application for matching liver source.

What does this mean? It means that even if there is a new suitable liver source, it will not be given to Yao Liting.

This means, are they planning to give up Yao Liting's life?

This question not only arises among the jury, but also some people in the hearing booth began to whisper.

But the only thing that could be unified at the scene was everyone's eyes on Cheng Liang.

Zhang Wei moved closer to Cheng Liang, and said in a low voice, "Representative Cheng, you are now being criticized by everyone!"

"It doesn't matter, I was also out of business at the beginning, so I can bear the pressure."

Although Cheng Liang was sweating on his forehead, he still forced himself to calm down.

He calmed down, but the courtroom was still noisy.

"Quiet, the courtroom is important, no noise is allowed!"

Judge Ni beat the gavel several times vigorously, and the scene gradually became quiet.

"Prosecution, do you have any questions to ask?"

"Your Honor, regarding Dr. Du, I have no questions to ask for the time being."

"Well, the defense!"

Judge Ni signaled Zhang Wei to come up.

"Dr. Du, good morning, we are very grateful to you for being able to testify in court."

"You're welcome." Dr. Du responded to Zhang Wei's greeting in a neutral manner.

"In response to the prosecution's question and your answer, we also have a few questions we want to ask Dr. Du."

"go ahead."

"Okay, then the first question, Dr. Du, you said that we rejected the plaintiff's liver source application, so I would like to ask you, if the plaintiff wants to find a suitable liver source, how long will it take? "

"Well, this question is really not easy to answer."

Dr. Du was stumped by the question, showing thoughtfulness on his face.

Zhang Wei smiled slightly, "Excuse me, Dr. Du, can you tell the jury why this question is so difficult to answer?"

"Can."

Dr. Du turned his head to look at the jury, and explained: "A suitable liver source is not something you can have if you want it, it requires patient waiting. The only way to obtain a liver source is organ donation. In the organ reserve bank, all the organs come from healthy people who died suddenly, and their family members must sign the "Organ Donation Letter" to agree to these organs before they can be taken out and used. Sex is unpredictable."

"And even if someone really donates a healthy liver, a matching test is required before liver transplantation. Although the liver is an immune-privileged organ, for liver transplantation, it is still necessary to meet blood type matching as much as possible. This will not only reduce postoperative rejection The chances of a response, and potentially reducing the dose of anti-rejection drugs."

"Finding volunteers, matching tests, follow-up, preparing for surgery, etc., these processes are very, very time-consuming."

Zhang Wei nodded, "After listening to Dr. Du's explanation, I can think that a suitable liver is actually very difficult to obtain, right?"

"Yes, there are dozens of patients in our hospital who are waiting in line for suitable organ donations. Some of them have been waiting in the intensive care unit for several years."

"I see!"

Zhang Wei nodded again.

"Then I would like to ask Dr. Du, for the plaintiff, Ms. Yao Liting, did you take any remedial measures after the medical accident occurred?"

Dr. Du took a look at Yao Liting and nodded quickly, "For the patient Ms. Yao Liting, our hospital has given her a very active postoperative treatment and waived most of her surgery and treatment costs. I will definitely perform surgery on her as soon as possible. My medical team and I are very hopeful and eager to get a suitable liver source for her!"

Although these promises sounded like empty talk to Zhang Wei and many others, at least Dr. Du showed his attitude.

"I also see Dr. Du's enthusiasm, so if there is a suitable liver source, and you can help the plaintiff to perform an operation immediately, and the operation can be successful..."

When Zhang Wei said this, he showed a trace of apology, "Although I know it may be inappropriate to ask this question, I still want to ask, if all the conditions I mentioned are met, how long can the plaintiff, Ms. Yao Liting, live?"

"Ten years, twenty years, or thirty years?"

"No, the lawyer is leading the witness to speculate!"

In response to Zhang Wei's question, Wang Meiyan stood up and interrupted directly.

"Your Honor, my question is based on Dr. Du's professional knowledge. He is an authoritative medical expert and Ms. Yao Liting's attending doctor. No one knows the plaintiff's physical condition better than him!"

Judge Ni raised his eyelids, "It's invalid to send a statement. Witnesses, please answer this question."

Wang Meiyan had no choice but to sit down after giving Zhang Wei a vicious look.

Dr. Du thought for a while, then sighed: "About three years, or three and a half years, if the liver matching condition is very good after surgery, it can last up to five years."

"Three years, three and a half years, about 40 months, right?"

Zhang Wei pretended to be calculating, and then asked: "If you need an operation, how much money and resources will you need to spend? I mean how much will it cost for the plaintiff, Ms. Yao Liting, to complete an operation?"

"About 400,000 yuan. If you include hospitalization and the manpower and material resources for follow-up treatment, it should not be less than 500,000 yuan!"

"500,000 fee, 40 months, thank you for your answer, Dr. Du!"

Zhang Wei's expression remained unchanged, and he thanked him.

"Your Honor, we have no other questions about Dr. Du."

Zhang Wei repented at the dock, and Cheng Liang immediately joined him.

"Lawyer Zhang, your last question..."

"Although I really don't like putting a price on a woman's life, my question should help me win the support of some jurors. No, I can't say support..."

"It can only be said that they will measure whether the money is worth spending on a woman who is about to die, and such a measurement will make people feel uncomfortable in conscience."

Sure enough, Zhang Wei's question caused a slight change in the direction of the jury.

Among them was a middle-aged man in a suit who seemed to be thinking.

Wang Meiyan also noticed the change in wind direction, and quickly turned her head to wink at the hearing booth behind her.

"Your Honor, we want to ask more questions!"

Without waiting for the judge, she stood up directly and walked to the witness stand.

"Dr. Du, the defense asked you just now, if the operation is successful, how long will my client live? Your answer is about 40 months, right?"

"Yes."

"Then if I ask you, how long can my patients live now?"

"this……"

Dr. Du wanted to answer subconsciously, but he looked towards the front of the hearing booth.

Sure enough, Ding Chuntian stood up with the two children and walked out of the court silently.

Obviously, to answer this question, you need to consider the occasion.

All the eyes of the audience silently sent Ding Chuntian and the two children away.

After they walked out of the court, they took it back and concentrated on the witness stand.

"The plaintiff's physical condition is very bad, the cancer has destroyed her immune system, and the result of the second operation is even worse... According to my calculation, she still has about 4 months..."

"Four months, that is, less than half a year, my client can only last until July!"

Wang Meiyan sneered, and glanced at the jury box.

This answer really made many people change their minds.

"Lawyer Wang!" But Wang Meiyan was interrupted by a stern shout.

"Your Honor……"

"Lawyer Wang, I want to explain to you that this is my court. If you want to ask additional questions, should you tell me?"

Ni Qiuping was very angry at Wang Meiyan's behavior just now.

If it wasn't for the presence of Ding Chuntian and the two children, she would have interrupted each other just now.

"Wang Meiyan, you are Heizu's lawyer. Don't think that you have represented this case, and I will give you a break. If I find out that you have any tricks to incite the jurors, be careful!"

Ni Qiuping meant something, obviously she saw the scene where Wang Meiyan and Ding Chuntian winked just now.

Using children to influence the jury is a proper way to incite the jurors, and Ni Qiuping can completely interrupt the jurors.

"Sorry, Your Honor, my fault!"

Wang Meiyan quickly admitted her mistake. This is the first witness. If she offends the judge like this, the next trial may be against her.

"Witnesses please leave, the prosecution please prepare for the next witness to appear in court!"

"Your Honor, what we want to summon is..." Wang Meiyan walked back to the plaintiff's seat and winked at Yao Liting.

Zhang Wei naturally saw this scene.

"Trouble is coming!"

The next witness is the plaintiff herself, the worst witness in this case, Yao Liting!

Under everyone's gaze, Yao Liting walked towards the witness stand step by step.

Her steps were very slow, and her walking movements were very slight, and she even needed Wang Meiyan's support.

When she sat down, all eyes were on the witness stand, and everyone saw a frail woman sitting on the witness stand.

After Wang Meiyan sent Yao Liting to sit down, she spoke again:

"Everyone, let's talk about 40 months. Many people may think that this is not a very long time. Especially when the defense has reminded everyone that there is a shortage of liver sources and the operation fee is very high."

"Yao Liting, what do you think about 40 months?"

Yao Liting lowered her head, as if she was thinking about something, but quickly raised her head.

"In 40 months, my 5-year-old son will be in 3rd grade. If I can live this long, then I can watch my two children go to school with schoolbags. I can teach them to read and write. , teach them to tie their shoes, teach them to draw, teach them everything I should teach them..."

As Yao Liting spoke, the wind in the courtroom changed again.

When she looked at the jury, all the jurors smiled at her.

“…I can still make them new clothes, let alone take them to meet my family, their grandparents, 40 months, that’s three end of year, and six birthdays.”

"Maybe, I can still see their smiling faces riding a bicycle or going to an amusement park. Most importantly, how many days and nights can I kiss their faces, hug my children, and spend time with them... "

Wang Meiyan secretly admired it, and asked the plaintiff to tell the story in court, and the effect was really powerful.

The six jurors were all infected by the plaintiff's story at this moment, and even the woman who was questioned by Zhang Wei at the beginning lowered her head and was about to cry.

"This story really makes those who hear it sad, and those who hear it cry!"

Seeing the effect of the plaintiff's appearance in court, Zhang Wei also had to feel emotional.

Although it is a bit low-handed to let the child and the plaintiff gain sympathy, it has to be said that this is a sharp weapon in the trial!

Wang Meiyan's move is considered a conspiracy, and there is no way to defend against it!

"My lord, I have nothing more to ask about the witness!"

Let the plaintiff finish telling the story, and Wang Meiyan has completed her task.

Next, she just needs to wait for Zhang Wei to go to court to question the plaintiff.

Once Zhang Wei chose to cross-examine the plaintiff, he fell into the trap she had prepared.

No juror would trust a person who is strong and weak, especially if the other party represents an insurance company!

"Your Honor, because of the statements of the prosecution witnesses, we request a temporary adjournment!"

Naturally, Zhang Wei would not be caught. He just wanted to buy some time for everyone in the court to digest the story just now.

"In view of the plaintiff's statement just now, the court expressed its understanding, so let's adjourn the court for 20 minutes!"

Ni Qiuping also nodded without objecting.

The court is temporarily dismissed.

Outside the courtroom, in the aisle.

Yao Liting saw her two children.

"Mom~"

"Mom~"

The children rushed into her arms, and this scene was watched by everyone around.

Zhang Wei walked out of the court, and naturally saw this scene.

"Xiao Zhang, come here!"

But suddenly, a familiar voice sounded nearby.

"Uncle Zhao?"

Zhang Wei was taken aback, it was actually Zhao Qingyan's voice.

Seeing the corner, Zhao Qingyan was wearing a suit and beckoned to him.

Zhang Wei talked to Cheng Liang who was beside him, and hurried to the corner.

"Uncle Zhao, why are you here?"

"If I don't come, maybe I won't be able to see that you are deflated."

Zhao Qingyan smiled, and said as a joke: "You are really amazing, you don't help the disadvantaged, but go to help other insurance companies!"

"I estimate that if you ask 100 lawyers, 99 of them will answer that this lawsuit cannot be won!"

"What about the remaining one?" Zhang Weiming asked knowingly.

"Isn't you the remaining idiot?"

Well, Zhang Wei admitted that Zhao Qingyan's joke was not funny at all, because he already guessed the answer.

"Uncle Zhao, you don't really come here to see my jokes, do you?"

"That's not true, I'm here to give you this thing!"

Zhao Qingyan took out an envelope bag from his clothes and handed it to Zhang Wei.

"This is?"

"Just open it and have a look. It may be able to help you, but you have to keep this document a secret. After all, the plan inside is still in the experimental stage even in our company!"

"Okay, Uncle Zhao!"

Zhang Wei untied the envelope bag, then took out the documents and began to check.

After a rough scan, Zhang Wei was stunned.

"This thing, can it really be done?"

"Xiao Zhang, don't underestimate our blacksmith technology. Although this thing is still in the testing stage, let me tell you..."

Zhao Qingyan looked around to make sure that no one heard it, then lowered his voice and said, "At present, in some special departments of the war department, this thing has been tested clinically, and the effect is not bad."

"I understand!" Zhang Wei nodded seriously, put the document back into the envelope bag, and put it away solemnly

After Zhao Qingyan finished handing in the things, he suddenly asked: "Do you have any plans for the next trial? You won't really attack the plaintiff's witnesses during the cross-examination?"

"Uncle Zhao, attacking the old, weak, sick and disabled is a taboo in court. Do you think I will make such a mistake?"

"That's good, but it's strange, why are you standing in the dock and the Blackfoot people are in the plaintiff's dock. Because generally speaking, the Blackfoot people will do what I said, and they like it the most." The only thing to do is to attack the weaker side!"

"It can't be helped. I have no choice when I take the case."

Zhang Wei spread his hands, expressing helplessness.

Who told the litigation department to dismiss only these two cases?

No one in the criminal team wanted to sue the insurance company, so he had to do it himself.

"By the way, someone is here, I'll go first, anyway, you can use this thing when the time comes!"

Zhao Qingyan said goodbye to Zhang Wei.

However, the direction he walked happened to be where the person came.

"Mr. Zhao, hello."

"Look at you, Lawyer Bai."

Zhao Qingyan greeted the other party and left in a hurry.

"Bai Meiqi?"

Seeing the person coming, Zhang Wei was surprised again.

"Are you familiar with Mr. Zhao Qingyan?"

"Uncle Zhao and I are quite familiar..."

"So that's how it is. I read your registration information at the law firm. You still have student loan problems at school, but you can wear Orion's suit after graduation. It seems that you have caught the line of Mr. Zhao." !"

Seeing the acquaintance between Zhang Wei and Zhao Qingyan, some doubts in Bai Meiqi's heart were also resolved.

Zhang Wei himself doesn't have any outstanding features, but he can possess some things that don't fit his status, it must be the help of noble people.

And this noble person has also emerged now.

"Mr. Zhao is the chief research and development officer of Blacksmith Technology. For a new lawyer like you, his status is too high."

"Even our big boss is very polite to him. I was also fortunate to meet him in a blacksmith technology litigation project."

Bai Meiqi said, and reminded Zhang Wei: "But you don't have to play tricks. The project department of our law firm is responsible for the affairs of Blacksmith Technology. Blacksmith Technology is a super VIP client of our law firm. You don't want to have any such clients." Have a bad idea, or be careful that the project department will trouble you."

"Lawyer Bai is worrying too much. Uncle Zhao and I are in a personal relationship. Haven't we talked about anything in business?"

"Really, did he give you something just now?"

"Well, Uncle Zhao felt sorry for me, so he planned to help me. After all, in his opinion, I will lose the lawsuit soon."

"I think so too, you're really going to lose."

Hearing Bai Meiqi's words, Zhang Wei suddenly became unhappy.

"Well, Lawyer Bai, the court is about to start again, so I'll take my leave first!"

He took out his cell phone to check the time and said goodbye.

Zhang Wei and the trump card of the litigation department have nothing to say.
