During the second trial, the legal team of "Republic" doubled the speed of their speech in response to Chen Zhuo's questioning. It was like a machine gun at first, and it was mixed with many allusions and terminology. They had just conducted a lot of

After a month of intensive training, Chen Zhuo was unable to resist such tricks.

In Petlica's words, the configuration and strategy of "Republica"'s legal team to deal with Chen Zhuo are already at a war level, and as Saoirse analyzed, the complexity of this lawsuit has gone beyond

Petrica's imagination was broken, and Petrica was a little confused as to why it happened like this.

There was a preparation meeting on Thursday, and the trial lasted a day on Friday. On Saturday, Petrica's legal team and Chen Zhuo were called to the Milan Club again. The Milan Club's legal team and the club's press officer all gathered here, and Saoirse was no longer on the legal team.

, she attended as Chen Zhuo’s Italian translator.

Gasperini has no choice but to face the "expansion" of Chen Zhuo's lawsuit. After the game against Roma, he has a holiday on Monday. From Thursday to Saturday, Chen Zhuo is busy with his lawsuit. This week, Chen Zhuo only has Tuesday and Saturday.

I participated in the team's collective training for the past two days on Wednesday. In Gasperini's words, even business was delayed for a trivial matter.

"It's not a trivial matter, but a big deal." Saoirse has been sorting out information day and night these days, and her eyes have dark circles, but she finally got some results.

It was already evening when he returned to Genoa from Milan on Saturday. After dinner and rest, Chen Zhuo did another hour of equipment training and 10-minute swimming. After completing this strength training, it was already past ten o'clock, and he would have to do more training the next day.

During the competition, I originally planned to take a rest early, but as soon as I lay down, Saoirse dragged her to her room and told her that she had made important discoveries that she wanted to introduce to Chen Zhuo.

Chen Zhuo said weakly: "What a big deal, I don't want to do these things anymore, I just want to play football. Why is it so complicated? I can't even train. If I don't perform well in this game

, if I have to ask for leave like this next week, I will be thrown to the bench, this is a big deal!"

"Look at these information, this is a timetable I made..." Saoirse introduced.

Chen Zhuo looked at Saoirse's computer screen and asked, "What is this? It's a mess!"

Saoirse pointed to the computer screen and said: "This column is the timetable of Berlusconi's political career. Above this is the detailed list of Berlusconi's media empire. Berlusconi controls all Italian TV stations, including three

Private channels and three public channels, this situation is almost unique in European countries, because in Italy, TV is the main channel for citizens to obtain information, and even the only channel for many people. In fact, his control over TV is not only

Issues in the commercial category have become serious political issues..."

Chen Zhuo was already sitting on the carpet leaning against the corner of the bed, yawning and said, "I know this, everyone on earth knows it. Does this have anything to do with my lawsuit?"

Saoirse ignored Chen Zhuo's question and analyzed to herself: "La Repubblica is affiliated to the Italian Express Media Group and was founded in 1976. Berlusconi also got involved in the media during this period, but he acquired

The circulation of "Today's Daily" is far lower than that of "Republic", but in the 1980s

During the TV trend, the Italian Express Media Group, which owned three radio stations, failed to transform in time. As a result, in just five years, Berlusconi monopolized the entire Italian TV station and became the largest media group in Italy through mergers and acquisitions.

Citu was almost driven to the brink of bankruptcy by Berlusconi..."

"Oh, I probably figured it out. He completed the monopoly of Italian TV around 1985, then acquired AC Milan and began to get involved in the football industry, because football broadcast rights are a very big cake... In 1986, haha,

Berlusco

Nigeria was influenced by the World Cup in Mexico, and Italy served as the host in 1990, so Berlusconi's involvement in the football industry was very foresight and the timing was well chosen." Chen Zhuo yawned as he spoke.

I have already started to close my eyes and rest my mind.

"The period from 1986 to 1991 was the period of drastic changes in Eastern Europe and the disintegration of the Soviet Union. There was also the merger of Germany and the United States. The pattern of competition between the United States and the Soviet Union for hegemony disappeared. The Cold War ended and the world became a unipolar world..." Saoirse recounted

road,

Chen Zhuo said "Yeah" and muttered with his eyes closed: "Will the outcome of my lawsuit affect the world structure? My eldest lady, even if football is gone, the earth will still rotate..."

(three)

Saoirse ignored Chen Zhuo, found the flat goggles she used when looking at the computer, put them on, and said to herself: "In 1992, Bill Clinton was elected President of the United States to promote Internet technology and build information highways. At that time, Berlusconi discovered that the Internet

The popularity of TV will have a subversive impact on his TV media empire, so he has the idea of

In order to defend the interests of his empire, he wanted to monopolize the Internet. However, at this time, his monopoly on television media had been questioned by the Italian business and political circles, and calls for anti-monopoly legislation were getting louder. The two

The reason is that Berlusconi needs to gain political status and then use power to protect his empire..."

"I understand, Saoirse. My Italian listening skills are pretty good now. I have a picture of what you said in my mind. Haha, in our country, many people also had outbreaks in the 1980s within three to five years."

He got up, made a lot of money, and then started a lot of mergers and acquisitions, and became a rich man. Oh, by the way, Berlusconi was also on the Forbes rich list, right? That list in China is called the Pig Killing List. Whoever gets on top is the one who gets it.

Just get slaughtered."

Chen Zhuo opened his eyes slightly and gestured: "Saoirse, do you know what I am thinking? A group of rich people have to find ways to keep their wealth after making money, and even their wealth is illegal or even illegal.

, fearing that one day the policy will change, they

Their wealth has been wiped out, so they have to try their best to seek shelter for themselves, such as trying to join the party or becoming a representative of the two sessions! Otherwise, hey, some places in China have already begun to **, if they don’t get a red hat

, maybe I will be beaten one day..."

"Well, yes, it's a truth, but in China you can only seek protection from political officials and find a protective umbrella for yourself. Unlike Italy, Berlusconi organized a political party by himself in 1994, called Forza Italia, with

This party integrated the Italian right-wing Liberal League and won the general election in March of that year, and Berlusconi became prime minister in May..." Saoirse said.

Chen Zhuo said with a smile: "They don't want to pay bribes and give gifts to become their grandchildren. They also want to be the backstage or even the head of state themselves, so they let many journalists and literary men sing the praises of democratic elections and universal suffrage, and fool the people into voting for

They, haha, changed from plundering to taking advantage of others, do you think this is progress?"

"Although it is unwilling to admit it, Italy is not a big or powerful country politically or economically. The real big country is the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. Russia inherited the Soviet Union and is still one of the great powers. The United States and the United Kingdom are tied together, and China

, and France, which is distant from them in all aspects. In fact, a second-rate power like Italy has always been politically influenced by the five major powers, and the same is true for Italy..." Saoirse introduced.

"When Berlusconi was running for office in 1994, China was focused on economic development just like the United States when it implemented 'isolationism.' Russia was licking its own wounds after the split of the Soviet Union. These two powers had no influence on Italy.

The countries that formed the influence were the American and British political bloc and the French political bloc. At that time, France was united with Germany and other European countries.

It is vigorously promoting the European Union and the euro, which is a dangerous signal for the United States, so both sides are trying every means to win Italy into their own camp. Silvio Berlusconi, who emerged in 1994, has not yet established deep connections with the political groups and political families of several major countries.

relationship, so after less than a year as prime minister, Berlusconi resigned in January 1995."

Chen Zhuo asked: "Saoirse, didn't you learn these things when you were in college? Why are you only collecting and analyzing them now?"

Saoirse smiled and said: "Which country's political textbooks would write like this! These are contents that cannot be taught in the classroom! For example, Berlusconi resigned in 1995 because he did not agree with the United States and the United Kingdom.

He stood against joining the EU, but after joining the EU, he no longer listened to the orders of France and Germany, and always wanted to make some noise on his own. This was of course because Berlusconi was just a rookie entering the political arena at this time, and he was not yet a senior citizen.

It’s because of an old politician!”

These contents may not sound complicated to Chen Zhuo, but he has never thought about them from this perspective, and it seems that these things are not his turn to think about.

"On the one hand, he supports the EU and the euro but does not align with the United States and the United Kingdom. On the other hand, he remains tough on China and does not align with French President Mitterrand who adopted a loose and friendly policy towards China in 1994. Therefore, Berlusconi basically has no

With diplomatic support, I resigned after working for seven months to practice cultivation..." Saoirse introduced based on the timetable.

"Berlusconi ran for president for the second time in 2001. Not only was Berlusconi more sophisticated politically after six years of training, but another problem was that the diplomatic situation at this time was favorable to Berlusconi.

Yes, U.S. President George W. Bush, who successfully ran in the 2000 election, expressed support for Berlusconi. They need a country that can compete with France and Germany in the EU, and its economic strength cannot be too weak, so Italy and Berlusconi are very suitable."

"Berlusconi stood in support of the United States on the issue of the United States' use of force in Iraq and Afghanistan. This was also the reason why he was not re-elected because he was too far away from Europe. Here, you see, in 1994

From January 1995 to 2006, it was La Repubblica that continuously and intensively attacked Berlusconi through reports, especially

When Berlusconi was campaigning for re-election in 2006, he said this: "He was regarded as a staunch ally of U.S. President Bush and supported Bush at all costs in launching the Iraq war. Italy under his leadership was gradually alienating its traditional European allies and was keen on cross-border cooperation."

Atlantic Alliance'..." Saoirse shook Chen Zhuo.

Chen Zhuo said: "I haven't slept yet, but I'm still energetic!"

When I went over to read it, "La Repubblica" devoted a whole page to describing Berlusconi's four-year political career as useless from various aspects such as foreign policy and economic policy, and there were also two "accusations":

For a man as wealthy as Berlusconi, there is no evidence of embezzling public funds and accepting bribes, but

The two "allegations" made by "La Repubblica" are that Berlusconi used his position to help his company evade taxes, and that Berlusconi used his position to leak recordings of some sensitive cases to the media owned by Berlusconi.

These two accusations are obviously valid, and the Italian people thought they were like that.

So Berlusconi hates La Repubblica and wants to bankrupt this report!

"Although Berlusconi failed in the election, the Forza Italia party and the Italian right-wing Liberal League controlled by him are still the majority parties in parliament. Prodi, who took office as prime minister in May 2006, was dismissed in February 2007 due to the failure of the foreign policy to be adopted.

resign at

In the early parliamentary election in 2008, Silvio Berlusconi was re-elected as prime minister. Later, La Repubblica published a news report saying that 'it is said that the mafia helped Berlusconi succeed in the election'..." Saoirse carefully combed through La Repubblica.

》The feud with Berlusconi.

(five)

This wave of "La Repubblica"'s denunciation offensive against Berlusconi started in April 2009. Since the "tax evasion door" and "leak door" could not be opened, "Republica" took the final step.

The familiar way, the last name is Scandal.

In April 2009, "La Repubblica" revealed an ambiguous incident involving Berlusconi, claiming that he went to Naples to attend the 18th birthday party of a young model named Noemi Letizia, and at the birthday party

, 72-year-old Bellew

Sconi gave the model a diamond-encrusted necklace worth about 6,000 euros, and also interviewed Berlusconi's flag by phone. Berlusconi's wife confirmed that Berlusconi had never attended his children's 18-year-old wedding.

Birthday party.

This report also triggered a divorce lawsuit filed by Berlusconi's wife against him. In May 2009, Berlusconi's second wife Lario filed for divorce from Berlusconi and demanded that Berlusconi pay an annual alimony of US$65 million.

The bottom line Berlusconi accepted was within 450,000 U.S. dollars. The gap was too huge, so he had to litigate. This fight lasted for more than a year. It was not until May 2010 that the divorce property division agreement was signed, but the divorce procedures were not formally completed.

.

During the fire in Berlusconi's backyard, Express Media Group also displayed its spirit of "beating up the drowned dog". On June 4, Spain's largest newspaper "El Pais" published photos of Berlusconi having an orgy with naked women in a mansion in Sardinia.

Then on June 17, an interview with 42-year-old call girl Patricia Daddario was published. She claimed that she had been hired to stay with Berlusconi twice. After Berlusconi denied it, in July

The issue also published the recording of the "passionate night" conversation between Bei and Daddario through the "Express" weekly...

Starting from the exposure of the "Young Models' Birthday Party" incident, "La Repubblica" published "Ten Questions to Berlusconi" in the newspaper every day for three months. The ten questions included "When did you meet Noemi?"

", "How many times have you met her and where were they?", "Why did you discuss the candidate for parliament with him, even though

He is not a member of your party at all?", "Veronica Lario (Berlusconi's wife) said that you often make friends with underage girls. Have you met other girls or "cultivated" them?"

, and "Your wife said that you are mentally unhealthy and need help. What is your health status?"

While making inquiries, Mao Ruo, editor-in-chief of La Repubblica, also claimed to other media that Berlusconi had publicly issued a statement asking the business community not to place advertisements in La Repubblica, pointing out that Berlusconi used his political influence to restrict

The sacred right of freedom of speech.

This matter is

It reached its climax in the second half of 2009. Not only did the women involved in the "call girl incident" leave the country one after another, but La Repubblica also organized 300,000 people to protest Berlusconi's suppression of press freedom. Then the Italian court deprived Berlusconi of his freedom of expression.

Immunity, and prosecuted his "bribery case", pointing out that in the past

In the 1980s, Berlusconi bribed a British lawyer to give false testimony in two cases involving Berlusconi's media group. At the same time, there were also "tax evasion cases" and "leak cases" related to Berlusconi.

All the old accounts from the 1990s such as the "False Accounts Case" have been uncovered and brought up again.

In December 2009, Berlusconi was violently attacked during a speech. His nasal bones were fractured and two dentures were knocked out. This attack, like the assassination of [***] in 2004, reversed the situation.

Even the leader of Italy's largest opposition party could only stand up to condemn the violence and express condolences to Berlusconi. Out of sympathy, the public's support rate increased. Of course, this matter was described by the opposition media as a "bitter ploy"...

"This newspaper doesn't seem like it will stop after ousting Lao Bei. It wants to oust the old guy to death!" Chen Zhuo not only scratched his head, what a hatred this was!

Saoirse looked at Chen Zhuo and said: "Also, from my analysis, the overseas political support force of "Republic" is very likely to be you."

"We? What we? Ah? We...China?" Chen Zhuo was dumbfounded. He had never thought about this. China still has the ability to manipulate other people's political structures. How is this possible? Stop joking! We

We have always believed in the principle of non-interference in other countries’ internal affairs, and it’s too late to resist every day! (To be continued.)
