Lawyer's character

Wang Deyou had just returned from court in the afternoon and was looking at the case files for the court session the day after tomorrow. He suddenly received a call from Fang Yi and felt very strange. This was the first time that Fang Yi had asked him to go to his office for tea since he was promoted to deputy director. He didn't know why.

Since Wang Deyou moved to Sidley Austin with his team, the legal aid team has been promoted to a separate department, with five staff members. Wang Deyou has been promoted to team leader, on the same level as the legal advisory team and litigation team. Of course, this is inseparable from Fang Yi’s strong support.

Although the legal aid business is not a good business, it is better than stability. Wanke Law has connected all the legal aid resources of Wanhua United Law Firm. Although the money for each case is not much, if it is done slowly and wins by quantity, you can still make some money, and it can also increase the reputation of Sidley Law Firm.

Five minutes later, Wang Deyou sat on the sofa in Fang Yi's office.

Fang Yi handed Ma Sida's resume to him. After Wang Deyou took the resume, he laughed: "This Zhou Yuanzhong came to you through the back door."

"What's going on? Do you understand this Zhou Yuanzhong?" Fang Yi poured him a cup of tea and asked.

"Well, lawyer Zhou Yuanzhong is a good person, but he is quite accepting of death. I know him a little bit. He is a new lawyer recruited by the legal aid team this year. Huang Yuanchao originally wanted him to do litigation business, but he didn't want to, so he wanted to do legal aid business. .

At first I thought he had a brain problem, but after learning about his experience, I felt that he was a lawyer worthy of my admiration. "Wang Deyou said seriously.

"Oh? Please introduce to me this lawyer Zhou, what is his situation?" Fang Yi asked curiously. Wang Deyou can admire him, this Zhou Yuanzhong is definitely not simple.

Wang Deyou told what he knew about the situation.

Zhou Yuanzhong grew up in a remote mountainous village beneath a local county that had been impoverished for hundreds of years. The location where he lives is quite special. It is at the junction of the two provinces. It takes more than two hours to walk through the mountain road along the mountain road that was to be built ten years ago but has not been used since every time I applied for funds. A county in a neighboring province.

In order to make a living, his parents worked outside for a long time and spent little time with him. He lived with his grandmother in the village and became a left-behind child. Without guidance, he started smoking, fighting, and doing some sneaky things with some bad boys from nearby villages very early on.

After entering junior high school, he skipped classes every day, and the teacher became annoyed when he saw him. After graduation, he went to a technical school, but because he often hooked up with some bad boys outside the school and got into fights in the school, he was later expelled from the school. A proper bad boy.

After hanging out outside school for a while, he found it boring and had to follow his parents to work. Without academic qualifications and work experience, he could only do some hard work. He worked hard all day, was covered in stinky sweat, and could not earn much money.

Later, he bought some small commodities and went to the flea market to learn how to sell them. However, he used exaggerated and false methods to deceive customers into buying, and sometimes forcefully bought and sold. Although he made some money, he became notorious in the market and was punished several times by the market management department.

After earning some money by setting up a stall at a flea market, he started drinking, singing, and having multiple affairs. The relationship between men and women was chaotic. In a continuous vicious cycle, he became a scumbag.

One day, Zhou Yuanzhong went crazy after drinking and almost beat his girlfriend to death. His father couldn't bear it anymore and stopped him. Under the influence of alcohol, his blood was boiling. He picked up a bottle and hit his father. Fortunately, his father reacted quickly and avoided it in time. In turn, he pinned him to the ground and beat him severely. The girlfriend was sent to the hospital for treatment. When his father came back, he found him lying on the ground, asleep.

When he woke up the next day, he saw his girlfriend with her head wrapped in gauze, sitting in front of the bed crying, and his home that was smashed to the ground beyond recognition, but he didn't know what happened. His girlfriend has always loved him deeply and did not call the police even though she was beaten.

I don't know if it was because of his conscience, or because he was beaten by his father, but the chaos in his brain was smoothed out, and he became enlightened. Zhou Yuanzhong decided that he could not go on like this.

This year, he was twenty years old.

With the help of his father, Zhou Yuanzhong found a job as a supermarket clerk. On his way to work, he happened to see an advertisement for the adult college entrance examination.

He didn't take it seriously at the time, but for the next few days, he would dream about the ad every night when he went to bed.

So he had the idea of ​​going to school and secretly went to the adult college entrance examination training school. After some communication, Zhou Yuanzhong was not good at mathematics. In the end, he could only choose between majors such as law, English and psychology, and finally enrolled in the school. Under the deception of his teacher, he finally chose law with the goal of becoming a lawyer.

One night, after dinner, he plucked up the courage and told his parents about his idea of ​​taking the adult college entrance examination. His parents were stunned for a long time and didn't say anything. Zhou Yuanzhong was a hopeless scum in the eyes of the people around him, and his parents were also afraid that he would cheat money and squander it.

But even so, his parents finally supported his choice and quietly put some of their savings from working on the table.

That night, his father sat on the bench, smoking the cheapest cigarette, frowning and burying himself in the smoke, looking at a pair of worn-out yellow sneakers on his feet, and told him: his parents are old and can no longer work. We can only support him so much, and he can only rely on himself for the future.

Although his father didn't say it clearly, Zhou Yuanzhong knew that if he took the money on the table and went to live and drink, he would be finished, and even his parents would give up on him.

He decided to fight for himself and his family one last time.

After that, he changed his job to a daytime job, and after work, he rode his bicycle to the Adult College Entrance Examination Training School. Through hard work, he finally passed the law junior college class of a university adult education college. After three years of study, He finally obtained a college diploma, but he could not take the judicial examination with a college diploma. He had to upgrade to a bachelor's degree. Only after obtaining a bachelor's degree could he be eligible to take the judicial examination.

After that, he took the college-to-undergraduate examination and was admitted to the law major of the College of Adult Education, where he studied full-time for two years. Studying was hard and tiring, but Zhou Yuanzhong knew this was his only way out. In his spare time, he found a job as a supermarket tally, and even worked full-time during winter and summer vacations.

In order to save money, he ate extremely simple meals every day. Sauced tofu, steamed buns, and free soup in the cafeteria were his three meals a day. Due to malnutrition, his body became thinner.

Two years later, he graduated with honors, then took the judicial examination and passed it with 410 points.

Although he passed the judicial examination, Zhou Yuanzhong's career as a lawyer was not smooth. Because he had an adult college entrance examination degree, many law firms rejected him. (End of chapter)
