Chapter 189 The Priest’s Illusion

Hua Zhenxing: "The first point I just mentioned is that the law has become a professional tool, and litigation itself has become the purpose. Then the second point is that the law has become a professional tool."

Locke: "What's the difference?"

Hua Zhenxing explained seriously: "The law is the last guarantee for the rights and interests of ordinary people. If its protection function is broken down, then order will have to give way to gangs. If you are lucky, there will be a new alliance to rebuild it. Unfortunately, it is the former port of Fiso.

The law, and more importantly its judicial system, protects the rights and interests of all people, and the more ordinary people need it, the more they need it. Law is not the same as medicine. It deals with the daily life of people and should not be so complicated that ordinary people cannot understand it.

Even if it is the most complex economic crime, after all the evidence chains are laid out, the fact is simple. Either he took money that he should not have taken, or he defrauded other people's money.

Let’s not talk about the investigation of cases. Criminal investigation is another profession. Law should teach the simplest principles, simple and clear. All legal logic should be understood by anyone who has received compulsory education.

How the police catch a murderer may be complicated, but the fact that murder is a crime is clear to everyone.

However, in many places in the world, even if the legal provisions are clearly written, the judicial system for implementing them has become increasingly complex, with various trap-like procedural regulations.

What does it mean when the judicial system is so complex that even an ordinary citizen who has completed compulsory education cannot understand it, and only professionals can understand it?

Have the two lawyers ever heard of the priest's vision? Or to put it more popularly, the illusion of the monks, when everyone who burns incense and worships Buddha must go through the monks in the temple, the monks as a group think that they represent Buddhism. "

At this time, Yue Gaole put his hands on the table and lowered his head and laughed. Seeing everyone looking at him, he waved his hands and said, "Leave me alone! Boss Hua, go on."

Hua Zhenxing continued: "There is an illusion in the legal profession that they think they represent the law or even the legal system. Because they have formed a small professional circle, the judicial process is implemented through them, and the judicial results are determined by them. Adjudication, judicial theory and teaching materials are also written by them.

I say this not because I have any objections to people who are engaged in the legal profession, but if the judicial system is so complicated that ordinary people cannot understand it, it will become a professional tool within a small circle.

Once this trend is formed, it will become more and more obvious. Because various judicial systems are most often formulated by this group of ‘insiders’. "

At this point, Huazhenxing was silent and seemed to be still organizing his words. Yue Gaole nodded and added: "This is called professional closure. Artificial barriers to professionalism are set up. The so-called professionalism is used to make the program extremely complicated. It is so complicated in this circle. Outsiders don't understand, and then the judicial system gradually turns into a professional tool.

Suppose that the case of O'Haim did not take place in Fiso Port at this time, but in Brussels. I can say that there are many links that only people like me and Lawyer Dong understand, but you don’t know at all. Is this really necessary? At least it is very necessary for me and Lawyer Dong!

Whether it is the prosecutor, the defense, or the judge, they are all insiders. Sometimes it feels like a professional performance, we will also find an audience to watch, not only watch the performance but also vote..."

Dong Zegang finally couldn't help coughing, interrupted Yue Gaole and said: "Xiaohua, I didn't expect that you are quite thoughtful. If you are interested in law, I can recommend a number of professional books to you."

Yue Gaole unconsciously took over the conversation and said, "That way Boss Hua won't be able to speak layman's language, right? But I guess people must have read your book, but your book can't solve their problems.

The three points he just wanted to talk about all refer to existing shortcomings. Boss Hua means that to re-establish order here, we must establish it from the beginning and try not to repeat the same mistakes. "

Locke: "Assistant Hua just said two points, what about the third point?"

Hua Zhenxing: "As for the third point, it is actually the result of the first two points, the industrialization of the law. For the same thing, if the cost of implementing it is higher and the process is more complicated, the fairness of the result cannot be guaranteed. But the judiciary itself The purpose should be to ensure fairness, unless it deviates from that purpose."

Yogao Le shook his head and said: "Who said the purpose of justice is to ensure fairness? The purpose of justice is to ensure order. It depends on what kind of order you want to maintain. Of course, order is better than no order. This is the difference between the country and the country. The difference is several miles apart.”

Hua Zhenxing nodded and said: "Yes, you are right! What I hope to maintain is a fair order. Many things in this world have been industrialized, but there are a few things that cannot. The first is the law.

The judicial process cannot be a business. As long as it is orderly, the higher its cost, the greater the internal friction in society, and the more unfair it actually is.

I often see some remarks that doctors and lawyers are the most enviable professions for ordinary people and represent the goals they strive for. I really want to ask why? This is obviously not normal.

If we look at the economic data of a city or a country, if the output value created by the medical and legal fields accounts for a large proportion, what does this mean?

This means that a large part of everyone's income and a large proportion of the wealth created by the entire social production are consumed in the medical and legal fields. So how sick are people's bodies and behaviors? "

Yue Gao Le was happy again: "Maybe it's not people's bodies and behaviors that are sick...Boss Hua might as well just talk about the United States! I got my doctorate in law from the United States."

Hua Zhenxing shook his head and said, "I'm not just referring to the United States, but to many places."

Yue Gaole: "Boss Hua is from the Chinese ethnic group in Dongguo. I know you also like Dongguo very much, but what you just said is also showing signs in Dongguo today."

Hua Zhenxing: "So I hope this won't happen here. The order we are reestablishing in Fiso Port is first of all the judicial system. Who does it serve and what is its purpose? Lawyer Dong, do you understand?"

As for O'Haim's case, it is a legacy of the previous period of history. It belongs to the history that we must face. It is a special case in a special period. I hope it will not happen again in the future. "

When he went back to work after lunch, Dong Zegang was still a little confused. Hua Zhenxing spoke so loudly. Could it be that his child had the final say in Feisuo Port?

But in a second thought, Dong Zegang had another understanding, thinking that this was the meaning of the three elderly people, and they just said it through the child Xiaohua, with the purpose of beating him and reminding him to pay attention to today's new work principles.

In a sense, Lawyer Dong was not completely wrong. The idea of ​​Hua Zhenxing did not appear out of thin air. He was taught by three old men.

Just after Locke and Dong Ze left, Yue Gao Le was still sitting there drinking tea, but today he was a little more self-conscious and took the initiative to use his magic to tidy up and wash the dishes. Hua Zhenxing asked: "Why is Lawyer Yu still sitting here? Aren't you very busy?"

Yue Gaole: "This is what I am busy with. I have been listening to you for a long time, but my problem is still not solved. If the Afriso Port prosecutor does not enter into a plea agreement with the client, he must be lenient if he confesses, right?

I just wanted an early sentencing because my client wanted to escape while being escorted to prison. I am a dedicated lawyer and I have to try my best to help him achieve his goals. The judiciary must also pay attention to efficiency. Lack of efficiency cannot guarantee fairness, right? "

Hua Zhenxing almost got angry: "Don't worry, it will be soon."

Yogao Le: "I would also like to suggest that you pay attention to the bail terms. Do not return the bail or cancel the joint guarantee after the verdict is pronounced in court. It is stipulated that it will be returned when he goes to jail to serve his sentence."

Hua Zhenxing: "You are so considerate, thank you very much! You are Oheim's legal counsel, but you should be hired through Oheim Pharmaceutical Group, and you receive fees from the pharmaceutical group."

Yo Gao Le: "Yes, my consulting fee is not paid by O'Heim personally, but by the pharmaceutical group. There is no problem in terms of procedures."

Hua Zhenxing: "Then your mission this time is almost completed. If those three magicians are also hired through Oheim Pharmaceutical Group, then they will no longer have to be bodyguards for Oheim soon."

Yue Gaole raised his thumb and said: "Boss Hua is so smart, so he is waiting here! Your old friend Rothchild has almost controlled the Oheim Pharmaceutical Group." At this point, his tone changed again, "But I After helping you so much, do you want him to fire me?"

Hua Zhenxing: "How can you fire someone like a lawyer? I don't know how long you signed the contract. In short, it is impossible for Oheim Pharmaceutical Group to unilaterally break the contract. You can continue to provide legal services, but it may not be possible." It’s about serving O’Haim again.”

Yogao Le: "It is my responsibility and O'Heim's right to start well and end well. Even if O'Heim Pharmaceutical Group wants to transfer me, it will have to wait until the verdict is announced."

Hua Zhenxing: "Okay, I promise you. In short, O'Haim's departure from Fesuo Port will not be later than the time when I provide the Chunrong Pill."

Yue Gao Le: "Six billion Dong Guo coins, converted into Luo Yuan, I can transfer it to your account right now."

Hua Zhenxing: "Don't worry, wait until January. It's only a few days anyway."

At this moment, Hua Zhenxing's cell phone vibrated. He took it out and saw that it was Charles calling. Charles has been very busy recently. He has to host various meetings, deliver various speeches, and sign various documents in public. He also has to learn various knowledge and receive various trainings in private.

Charles is the new mayor of Fiso Port and the leader of the local people. The three old people, including Hua Zhenxing, do not intend to just treat him as a puppet. They are really cultivating and building him with their heart, hoping that he can be qualified for this role.

The reason why Hua Zhenxing chose Charles in the first place was because there was really no other more suitable candidate. But it turned out that this choice was very correct, and Ciel's intelligence was brought into full play, almost like cheating.

Hua Zhenxing thought he had something urgent, but ended up chatting on the phone for a long time. Charles claimed that he hadn't seen him for many days and expressed his concern and greetings. He also said that he would go to have noodles together again. Recently, a new barbecue restaurant opened in Feso Port. It is a Dongguo Northeast style barbecue. You can go there to eat skewers and drink beer. .

Then Charles asked about Manman's situation and asked Hua Zhenxing to say hello on his behalf. Finally, he mentioned Locke and expressed his gratitude and admiration for Locke. Locke has already served in the city government and has indeed done a lot recently and performed very well.

Hua Zhenxing frowned after hanging up the phone, instinctively feeling that something was wrong. The two have been playmates since childhood. Although Hua Zhenxing feels more and more that he has underestimated Charles, he still understands this man's temper very well.

Although Ciel sometimes talks a lot, and talks endlessly when he is excited, he is never boring, and he is not so oblique. This phone call today was very strange. It was unnecessary to greet Manman and praise Locke.

Although the two of them haven't seen each other much recently, they haven't had the chance to meet each other. If you really miss him, why don't you come over in just two steps? Even if you want to make an appointment for noodles or barbecue, you should give a specific time!

This is obviously not Ciel's style. Ciel should have something he wanted to say but didn't say it. Hua Zhenxing thought for a while and asked nonchalantly: "Lawyer Yue, you have been released from quarantine recently. I also heard that you often go to visit. What is the most talked about topic recently?"

About Gao Le: "Boss Hua has been practicing in seclusion recently. He is really deaf to what is happening outside the window! In the streets and alleys, the topic that everyone is most interested in is not what the city government has done. Everyone is talking about Locke these days.

There are no newspapers or TV stations here. In fact, it’s useless to have them. Most people don’t have TVs at home. Even if they have TVs, they can’t receive signals, and they don’t know how to access the Internet..."

Hua Zhenxing: "Let's put it bluntly, most people here are illiterate! What are you talking about Locke?"

Yogao Le: “Because everyone is illiterate, street discussions are very important and are the most important way for local people to spread and receive information.

The new alliance is very clever. It has set up cultural life squares for residents and broadcasts Charles's speeches every day, making Charles a household name.

But is there another such person in Fiso Port? People here may only know a few hundred people around them, and only a few hundred people know him, with the exception of Charles.

But now there is a second one, and that is Locke. Nowadays, locals are familiar with Youpo Noodle House. Recently, some people have been promoting that these noodle restaurants are owned by Locke... This is true, but there are still people who are promoting Locke's deeds. "

Hua Zhenxing: "What deed?"

Gaule: "All kinds of beautiful compliments you can think of, including those I have read in the media in Brussels, about super rich people who do not covet glory and enjoy themselves, but devote themselves wholeheartedly to public welfare.

His net worth alone is greater than the combined net worth of all the people in Fesoport. He has taken root in Fiso Port and loves it and all the people here. So many gratifying changes in Fiso Port are supported by his behind-the-scenes investment.

If it weren’t for the fact that he was recently awarded a medal by King Belij and reported by overseas media, people would still not know what he has done for this place..."
