Ling Tian was very happy to see the change in Lawyer Zhu Chengxiang's attitude, finally achieving the purpose of his visit this time.
Ling Tian then told Lawyer Zhou about Director Zhou's predicament and how he had acquired the Shahe Village Winery.
Now that they had acquired the Shahe Village Winery, Bing Tian Winery naturally became the creditor of the Shahe Village Winery.
The debt dispute between Shahe Village Winery and Fang Yong naturally became a debt dispute between Bing Tian Winery and Boss Fang.
Ling Tian asked Accountant Yang to come over and present all the organized relevant receipts to Lawyer Zhu.
Lawyer Zhu examined them carefully and quickly. In less than 10 minutes, Lawyer Zhu reached a conclusion.
"Mr. Ling, forgive my bluntness, but this case is as simple as it gets. As long as your代理律师 isn't an idiot, you're almost guaranteed to win."
Lawyer Zhu Chengxiang couldn't understand why Ling Tian and his group went to such great lengths to ask him to handle this lawsuit.
"Is that so?" Ling Tian felt a bit awkward. He hadn't thought that far ahead; he had only heard from Old Zhou that Boss Fang's legal team was very formidable.
He had overlooked the case itself, which was very clear.
Seeing Ling Tian's reaction, Lawyer Zhu understood his thoughts and smiled.
"Mr. Ling Tian, how this lawsuit is handled specifically depends on how you want to fight it.
Do you just want to get your money back, or do you want to vent your anger?"
"I'm not very good with legal matters. Could you explain it to me in detail?"
"No problem. If you just want to get your money back, we'll file a normal lawsuit.
I can assign any lawyer to it, and this case is a sure win, handled perfectly for you.
If you want to vent your anger, things will be a bit more complicated, and it would require this approach..."
Ling Tian was stunned after hearing Lawyer Zhu's explanation. He never imagined that lawsuits could be played out like this.
If it were truly handled as Lawyer Zhu suggested, Boss Fang would be in for a lot of trouble.
"Alright, Lawyer Zhu, let's proceed as you suggested! I will definitely use legal means to properly punish Fang Yong, that unscrupulous businessman!
Don't worry, I won't shortchange you on any fees!"
"Mr. Ling Tian, you're being too formal. You cured my mother's illness; that's a life-saving kindness.
Besides, your case is very simple, just a small favor for me.
If you mention fees again, you're looking down on me, Zhu!"
"Okay, thank you very much, Lawyer Zhu. Please take care of it."
For the next week, Ling Tian visited the hospital almost every day. Besides giving the elderly patient acupuncture every other day, he would also use acupuncture to relieve her pain if she felt any discomfort.
With such a divine presence as Ling Tian, the doctors in the thoracic surgery department of Xiehe Hospital often came to discuss with him.
Although they were Western medicine practitioners, the doctors at Xiehe Hospital did not reject traditional Chinese medicine treatments.
Many of the treatment methods in traditional Chinese medicine had also provided new ideas for these doctors at Xiehe Hospital.
Ling Tian also benefited greatly from these exchanges. He even borrowed a white coat and followed the doctors on their rounds, learning a lot of valuable clinical experience.
A week later, Fang Yong was finally discharged from the hospital. He had suffered too much of a shock this time and had almost died.
After extensive rescue efforts at the hospital and constant encouragement from his family, he finally recovered from the blow of his treasures being stolen.
He planned to swindle more people to make up for his losses.
After being discharged, Fang Yong did not go home. His villa was still a crime scene, with seals on the door.
He went directly to his company. The company's business had been delayed for a week, and many matters awaited his attention.
As soon as he entered his office, the company's financial officer rushed over.
"Boss, something's happened! All our company accounts, nearly 200 million yuan, have been frozen!"
"What? What's going on?"
"I don't know. I'm investigating..." the financial officer said nervously.
"Slap!"
Fang Yong directly smashed the water cup on his desk.
"You useless bunch! Why do I keep you? I might as well keep a herd of pigs!"
Just then, someone else ran in.
"Boss, boss, something's happened! The company has suddenly received over a dozen lawsuits, accusing us of owing货款 and demanding payment of overdue货款!"
The man with a pale face was from their company's legal department, bringing bad news.
"Boss, these suppliers, represented by Bing Tian Winery, have filed a collective lawsuit, demanding that we pay the货款 according to the contract!
The total amount of these货款 is as high as 180 million yuan, and our company's accounts have been frozen through property preservation applications!"
Fang Yong was completely dumbfounded. Now he didn't need to investigate to know the reason for the frozen accounts.
In some judicial cases, to prevent the defendant from transferring assets and refusing to comply with the judgment, the plaintiff will apply to the court for property preservation in advance, and the court will seal and freeze part of the defendant's assets.
Fang Yong was completely stunned. In his opinion, some money could be owed, but some money could not.
For example, utility bills, taxes, etc. Those people wouldn't care if the company was short on funds; if you didn't pay, they would cut off electricity and water, and how would you produce!
Most importantly, he thought he had them under his thumb with those tricky contracts, but he never expected these suppliers to unite and file a collective lawsuit!
It seemed these companies had been squeezed too hard and could no longer tolerate it.
"Hmm, you said Bing Tian Winery was leading the charge? I've never heard of this company. When did we get such a supplier?"
"Boss, this Bing Tian company is actually the Shahe Village Winery from Jiangshan City. It has now been acquired and renamed Bing Tian Winery.
Also, we checked, and the major shareholder of this winery is also the major shareholder of Bing Tian Pharmaceutical!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Yong felt terrible. Although their winery was doing relatively well among the emerging wineries in the country, compared to Bing Tian Pharmaceutical, which had assets worth tens of billions and made fortunes daily, their winery was like a small workshop.
Now, he could figure out with his heel that Bing Tian Pharmaceutical was likely behind this matter!
"Damn it, this is too much! I, Fang Yong, will not allow these people to lord over me!
Quickly, contact our cooperating law firms. If he dares to sue us, we'll sue them back. Am I, Fang Yong, afraid of lawsuits?"
Upon hearing this, the person from the legal department's face immediately fell.
