Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer

Chapter 457 Pulling up and selling, the prosecution presses forward every step of the way

Tuesday, court day.

"This court announces that the first formal hearing of the case against the defendant Zhan Qingze for financial fraud of 20 billion will now begin!"

With the announcement of Lao Chen in the trial seat, the trial began.

On the defense table, Zhang Wei sat calmly, with the client Zhan Qingze on his right arm, and Xia Qianyue, his assistant and bodyguard on his left.

On the opposite side of the prosecution table were the chief public prosecutor Zhao Chunming and the second public prosecutor and assistant Tan Yingying.

The most important thing is the hearing stand. In addition to the people from the local prosecutor's headquarters, there is also a person from the Financial Services Bureau. Even the team leader Chen Weitian is still on the witness stand for the prosecution.

Of course, Zhang Wei's focus is not on these two groups of people, but on Qian Moli who played a scene on Lisa's talk show yesterday.

Today she brought her secretary to the court, and she really wanted to watch the entire trial as she said.

"Is it really here?"

Zhang Wei was not surprised by Qian Moli's presence. It would be a problem if this woman was not present.

The presence of this woman can gain influence for the prosecution, and at the same time she shed a few tears in the hearing booth, which can also arouse the sympathy of the jury.

On the contrary, on Zhang Wei's side, there were no strong helpers in the hearing booth, and his influence on the jury was limited.

"Prosecution, you can start the court statement!"

"Okay, Judge Chen!"

Zhao Chunming got up, and then announced: "The prosecution summoned Team Leader Chen from the Investigation Section of the Financial Services Bureau to testify in court!"

The first witness was Chen Weitian, and I have to say that Zhao Chunming did it directly and did not intend to give Zhang Wei a chance.

Chen Weitian went to court and sat on the witness stand.

"Hello, Team Leader Chen!"

"Hello, prosecutor!"

The two nodded to each other as a greeting.

Zhao Chunming began to ask questions.

"Group leader Chen, please tell the court, what did Zhan Qingze do to swallow the investor's entire 20 billion yuan?"

Chen Weitian had also expected this question a long time ago, and after a pause, he said: "In fact, this is some kind of "killing pig"? "

"Pig butcher plate?"

"Yes, killing pigs, this is our insider talk, it is a fake financial investment project, and the routine is the simplest "pull up and sell"! "

"Pull up and sell?" Zhao Chunming looked puzzled.

Chen Weitian organized the language and explained:

"Pumping and selling routines are the most commonly used by financial fraudsters. In fact, it is not difficult to understand. The defendant Zhan Qingze found or fabricated one or more stocks, and then asked the broker of the project team, or set up an investment company in the name of his relatives and friends. , Buy a lot of these stocks."

"Afterwards, he released good news in the market, created the illusion that the above was supporting the industry, and cooperated with brokers to deceive investors and let them buy similar stocks in large quantities."

Chen Weitian said with a smile: "I believe that you will receive many calls from investment companies on weekdays, such as Mr. xx, we have high-quality stocks here, guaranteed to make money, right?"

As soon as this remark came out, many members of the jury nodded, and many people in the hearing booth showed empathy.

They answered a lot of calls like this.

Whether you earn money without losing money, high-quality daily limit stocks, or financial products that earn 10,000 or 100,000 or even 1 million, you can almost receive similar harassing calls every day.

In fact, everyone has a question, why do you tell others about such a profitable thing, you can just buy it yourself?

This world is like this, the things that really make money are not told to others.

If you beg others to make money, there is only one purpose, you are eyeing my principal!

"After receiving a harassing call, what then?" Zhao Chunming immediately answered the call and asked a question.

"Then investors are attracted by the stocks mentioned by the broker on the phone, and many of them will search for similar news. At this time, the good news released by the defendant before will play a role."

"Generally speaking, people who have a little bit of investment savvy and know how to check the market trend will fall for this trick. After seeing so many good news, they can't help but want to buy this stock."

"And as the stock is bought in large quantities, the stock price will also continue to rise. At this time, everyone is very happy, because the stock has risen and they have all made money."

Chen Weitian said with a smile on his face.

But everyone could see that there was a hint of sarcasm in this smile.

Zhao Chunming also laughed, and asked with a smile: "Everyone has made money, isn't it a good thing, then why are there still losses?"

"Because those stocks are actually fake!"

Hearing Chen Weitian's words, Zhao Chunming immediately gestured towards Tan Yingying.

The latter sighed and opened the laptop.

A link to the projection screen, on which a set of photos appeared.

An abandoned factory, some basic facilities, and rusty and yellowed mechanical equipment.

"Everyone can take a look at the photo. This is the fabricated stock of the defendant Zhan Qingze. He said it is an environmental stock. This company is an environmental protection company strongly supported by Longguo. The company has marine waste recycling technology and urban waste recycling and reuse. technology, and even has the technology to convert waste into new energy, do you think such a company has this technology?"

Everyone shook their heads. The company in this photo is an abandoned dump. Such a company is said to have recycled and reused garbage, and it itself is garbage.

"As you can see, this is the company where Zhan Qingze's fictitious stock is located. He invested all the investors' money in this stock. If this company can make a profit, then it must be a ghost!"

When Chen Weitian said this, he sneered at the defense chair: "Zhan Qingze's purpose is very simple. He simply wants to harvest investors, which is commonly known in our industry as cutting leeks!"

"Investors buy this stock in large quantities, and a large number of orders will naturally drive up the stock price, creating the illusion of continuous rising, but you can also see that this company itself is fake and has no investment significance."

"And when the stock price reached a high level, Zhan Qingze and his brokers began to operate and sell their own stocks collectively. This step is called "high-level cashing out." "

"Once high-value stocks are cashed out in large quantities, the shock and impact on the stock price will naturally affect the stock price plummet. However, the broker and Zhan Qingze have already cashed out and left, catching investors by surprise."

"By the time investors reacted, the stock price had already fallen to the limit due to a large number of sell-offs, and there was no way to find someone to take over the limit-down stock. Investors could only watch the stock drop to the limit every day as soon as the market opened, and finally they were completely trapped! "

"At this time, if things about fake stocks or companies are exposed one after another, then the stock will have no upward trend at all. At this time, the stock can't be sold, and it can't go up if it goes up. It can only be completely rotten in the hands of investors. !"

Hearing this explanation, Zhao Chunming couldn't help feeling loudly: "This is really..."

"The last step, commonly known as thunderstorm, is a common occurrence in financial fraud. Even the last step of thunderstorm may be deliberately released by the defendant, in order to completely ruin the hope of investors and let them get money forever. Don't get your money back!"

As Chen Weitian said, he looked at Zhan Qingze with a sneer on his face.

"Contradictions, inflammatory statements, false accusations, hearsay evidence!"

Zhang Wei got up quickly and interrupted Chen Weitian's words.

"invalid objection!"

But Lao Chen gave Zhang Wei an unexpected answer.

Even Li Qinghua, the clerk, was taken aback. What's going on with this old Chen? This objection is well-founded and invalid.

But Lao Chen immediately gave Li Qinghua a look.

"Oh, this is a statement to Lao Wang and Lao Li!"

Li Qinghua understood, and Lao Chen still had some concerns, but it didn't really matter whether the objection was passed or not.

The entire audience, including the jury, looked at the defense bench with slightly hostile eyes.

After Chen Weitian's speech, everyone has understood "Zhan Qingze's routine".

Relying on one mouth, plus some fake news, fooling investors can make money, and then defrauding you of all your money, and finally throwing you a bunch of junk stocks, making you feel bad forever looking at these stocks!

Too poisonous!

It is extremely vicious!

Is this something that humans can do?

The direction of the court can be said to be completely in favor of the prosecution.

"Thank you, Team Leader Chen for your speech, we have nothing to ask for now!"

Zhao Chunming also finished asking questions at this time, and when he walked out of the court, he showed a touch of sarcasm at Zhang Wei.

You have also seen the current situation, you kid should be helpless, right?

Zhang Wei got up and walked to the witness stand.

"Hello, Team Leader Chen."

"Hello, Lawyer Zhang."

Facing Zhang Wei, Chen Weitian didn't show much hostility, but he didn't show friendliness either.

"Group Leader Chen, you people from the Investigation Section of the Financial Services Bureau must have followed this case for a long time, right?"

"Yes, we have been investigating for more than a month!"

"For more than a month, then you have been chasing this case for more than a month?"

"With a loss of 20 billion yuan, can we let the Finance Department ignore it, and still have the mind to take care of other small cases?"

"Indeed, 20 billion is a bit too much."

Zhang Wei couldn't help but nodded.

But then, he pointed to Zhan Qingze on the defense table, and asked, "Then I would like to ask, since you have been investigating for a month, you should know that it was my client, Zhan Qingze, who released the news that the market was good for environmental protection stocks at that time?"

"It's not, it's some financial news media in the Eastern Metropolis."

"So have you asked these media, who contributed to them?"

"I've asked, many of them are financial people, there are also some financial experts and professors, some self-media writers, and some..."

Chen Weitian said that many people came out.

"Then according to your investigation, how many of these people have social relations with my client Zhan Qingze, or do they have an intersection with my client?"

"According to our investigation, no!" Chen Weitian replied calmly.

"That's it. You said that my client created good news, but when did my client do this? Why didn't he know it?"

As soon as this remark came out, many people showed puzzled expressions.

On the prosecution bench, Zhao Chunming sneered, and took a pen to record it in his notebook.

"One more thing. Although my client works for Dongxing Securities and took over a project department two weeks ago, Team Leader Chen, please tell me, when did this financial fraud project start?"

"According to our investigation, the running time of this project should be more than 6 months, and someone released the news at the beginning of the year!"

"That is to say, when my client took over the project, it was already in the late stage of the project, and the insiders were ready to cash out?"

"This, I don't know!"

Seeing Chen Weitian shaking his head, Zhang Wei said with a smile: "Group Leader Chen, since my client is a suspect, please learn more about his work experience."

"My client entered the project in the last one or two weeks of the project that has been running for nearly 6 months. After entering the project, because of his engagement, he almost didn't focus on the company project, and he didn't know anything about the so-called fraud project. Affection."

"Don't you think that this is why Dongxing Securities specially selected my client to be the backer of this project?"

As soon as this remark came out, Qian Moli, who was in the front row of the hearing seat, couldn't bear it anymore, and almost stood up to object.

But someone was one step ahead of her.

"No, the statement just now is the subjective conjecture of the defense lawyer!" On the prosecution table, Zhao Chunming showed a cold face.

"The objection is valid!"

Old Chen also nodded, and gave Zhang Wei a warning look.

Zhang Wei ignored Lao Chen and looked at the witness stand again.

"Group leader Chen, let me ask, are you married?"

"ah?"

Chen Weitian was stunned, what kind of question is this.

"I object, it has nothing to do with this case!"

"Ahem, Judge Chen, my question is actually related to this case, please give me two minutes!"

Seeing what Zhang Wei said, Lao Chen also felt that he was a little unfair to Zhang Wei just now, so he nodded.

"Okay, objections are invalid!"

Zhao Chunming had no choice but to sit down.

"Group leader Chen, are you married?"

"get married."

"Oh, I'm married, I'm really surprised, there are women who like you..."

"Um!"

Seeing that Chen Weitian was about to get angry, Zhang Wei hurriedly stopped teasing.

"Ahem, let's get down to business, Team Leader Chen, when you got married, how long were you busy with the wedding banquet or engagement ceremony?"

"For about a month, during that time I was not even in the mood to go to work. I was absent-minded in the office every day, and I wanted to get off work quickly."

"Yeah, engagement ceremony, wedding banquet, etc. are all major events in life. What is the comparison between work and wedding?"

Zhang Wei also nodded in agreement, and then pointed to the defense seat, "Then in the same way, is it normal for my client to be busy with the engagement ceremony for two weeks, and even lose the basic ability to judge work?"

"this……"

Chen Weitian didn't know how to answer for a while.

"No, the defense lawyers are making assumptions!"

"Judge Chen, my question is a reasonable inference based on Team Leader Chen's answer, not a subjective assumption!"

Old Chen hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

"The objection is invalid. This court believes that the defense's inference is well-founded."

Zhang Wei nodded to Old Chen, then looked at Chen Weitian with a smile.

"Group Leader Chen, please imagine that if you were my client, Zhan Qingze, you were suddenly transferred to a new department two weeks before the engagement ceremony, and your boss asked you to sign a document and told you that this document There is no problem, it is the work handover, and you are asked to bring a new project, do you still have the heart to study every line and every clause carefully?"

"This..." Chen Weitian hesitated.

"Group leader Chen, you have sworn an oath. If you can't answer, I can summon your wife to court and ask her to answer for you!"

"Ah, this..."

Chen Weitian never expected that Zhang Wei would summon his wife.

He hurriedly looked at the prosecutor, and asked Zhao Chunming with his eyes.

On the other hand, Lao Zhao nodded slightly, and warned Chen Weitian with his eyes, so he should answer quickly.

The kid in front of you, let alone summon your wife, if necessary, he can even summon the opponent's prosecutor to court.

"That... I might just take a quick look!"

Chen Weitian hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully.

"Just take a quick look, huh?"

Seeing Chen Weitian telling the truth, Zhang Wei was very satisfied.

"Then, according to Team Leader Chen, can it be said that during the two weeks that my client entered the new department, there was no way to concentrate on work at all, and it was impossible to understand the situation of the new project?"

"This...is possible..."

"My client's new project is a fraud project, but you and I both think he doesn't understand it at all, so Team Leader Chen, isn't it a little too much for you to blame him for the new project's explosion? "

"this……"

"be opposed to!"

Zhao Chunming stood up again and objected.

"Judge Chen, I take back my last sentence and end the question!"

Just before Lao Chen was about to announce that the objection was valid, Zhang Wei had predicted in advance and ended the questioning.

This means not giving Lao Chen a chance, but his goal has been achieved.

Old Chen had no choice but to give Zhang Wei a warning look again, but both of them knew that it was of little significance.

Because of Zhang Wei's performance, the wind direction of the court has also undergone a slight change.

For example, because of Chen Weitian's answer, many people felt Zhan Qingze's innocence.

He was busy with the engagement ceremony for those two weeks, how could he have the time to manage the project?

Could it be that this financial fraud project really has nothing to do with him?

In the jury, in the hearing booth, many people had similar thoughts in their minds.

This wind direction also made both Zhao Chunming and Chen Weitian feel a little tricky.

At the hearing booth, Qian Moli also looked at Zhang Wei with a stern look.

"As expected of a murder lawyer, just a few questions can save the disadvantage. If I only prepared such a little, I really can't take you down!"

But soon, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Because she provided too much evidence for the prosecution.

"The prosecution?"

"Judge Chen, we will continue to summon witnesses!"

Zhao Chunming also stood up at this time and announced again that witnesses should be summoned.

A bald man wearing black-rimmed glasses who looked like a literary worker walked up to the court.

"Hi witness, please introduce yourself."

"My surname is Tao, and I am a contributor to the Economic Weekly of our city, and I am also a self-media operator."

"Hello, Mr. Tao, do you know the defendant Zhan Qingze?"

"I know!" The man glanced at the dock, then nodded.

At the defense table, Zhang Wei moved to Zhan Qingze's side.

"Do you know this old boy?"

"I seem to have seen it, but I don't remember it?"

"Really, looking at him, it seems that he has prepared a killer move against you!"

Zhang Wei looked at the two people who were talking in court, with a gloomy expression on his face.

"Mr. Tao, please tell me, have you and Zhan Qingze made a deal recently?"

"Yes, he gave me 20,000 yuan to post a post on environmental protection stocks, and later he gave me another 30,000 yuan to post a technical post on resource recycling!"

Following the man's answer, Zhan Qingze on the defense bench was stunned.

When did I give you money, why didn't I know?
