Can following the rules be called rebirth?

Chapter 186, Section 184: He Min's Multiple Identities

"The interview from a couple of days ago has been published! Sister Fangfang! You're on the front page of the Jiangcheng Daily!"

"real or fake?"

"Go watch it! Wei Yifan also appeared in a video from the Legal Daily, he's so handsome!"

"Those interviews were sent out so quickly? Shouldn't they go through three rounds of review and proofreading?"

"Of course, if there's a sensational interview, they'll definitely work overtime to produce it, okay?"

Plant the seeds of law in October, and begin to reap the harvest in November.

On the day that major media outlets published special reports, Mingli Legal Consulting Company became a sea of ​​joy.

Many employees couldn't help but whisper among themselves at their workstations, and would occasionally run up to the heads of the operations and sales teams to express their envy and congratulations.

Shi Fangfang and Wei Yifan, as grassroots employees who were pulled away for the interview, really got a big exposure this time.

Police and businesses join forces to dismantle a "sweet trap": Mingli Legal Consulting Company assists in cracking a major online dating fraud case.

—A brief analysis of the first case of the new type of fraud, the "pig butchering scam," in Wuhan.

This feature report, published on various new media columns of the Legal Daily, garnered tens of thousands of views within just a few hours.

Of course, this is just the tip of the iceberg of what various media outlets have written about.

Wow, this feature article is so well written!

"There are some details that even I didn't know!"

"Team Leader Wei! No wonder you're the team leader. You discovered this clue was off in just a few words?"

Wei Yifan was surrounded by people asking him all sorts of questions, but his fair face showed embarrassment as he stammered.

"No, no, the reporter is exaggerating."

"Actually, I wasn't sure about these kinds of cases. It just so happened that I arrived very early that morning, and there weren't many people in the company. I happened to give a one-on-one report to Assistant He, who then went to see General Manager Zhou."

"Mr. Zhou really has a keen eye! He saw through this new type of fraud at a glance and took my account directly. And then everyone knows what happened."

Reporter Li Yu's writing is very skillful, describing the whole incident in a dramatic and gripping way.

The article details Ms. S's (pseudonym) experience: she met a "successful man" through a dating website, and after establishing a romantic relationship, the man induced her to deposit money into a fake investment platform, ultimately disappearing with her money.

At the same time, it provides a clear definition from the perspective of official publications.

This is the first time that the "pig butchering" scam model has been clearly identified and named in Jiangcheng.

Throughout the entire feature report, Mingli Legal Consulting Company played a crucial role as a firewall.

Attorney He, who was in charge of receiving the consultation, was not new to similar inquiries. Based on her experience in analyzing and processing a large database of cases from her company and summarizing numerous cases of online dating fraud, she keenly sensed that there were huge doubts about everything Ms. S described.

"High-return investment", "online boyfriend", "urgent need for money".

Attorney He immediately instructed Ms. S to preserve all the key evidence.

Complete screenshots of social media chat history, fake platform links and app names provided by the other party, bank transfer details, and the identity information provided by the other party.

Standard operating procedure for securing electronic evidence.

Next, based on the fast track for police-enterprise cooperation established with the High-tech Zone Branch, Mingli Legal Consulting Company quickly compiled Ms. S's case materials and preliminary analysis opinions into a written report and formally transferred it to the criminal investigation department.

Therefore, in November 2014, Uncle Hat carried out a cross-province arrest operation, successfully dismantling the fraud den, arresting the main criminal suspects, and seizing a large number of computers, mobile phones, and bank cards used in the crimes. The preliminary investigation revealed that the amount involved was nearly one million yuan, and some of the defrauded property was successfully recovered.

But this is not the end.

The key point of the article lies in its emphasis on the proactive role of Mingli Legal Consulting Company throughout the entire process.

They summarized the common characteristics of similar consultation cases, such as the modus operandi, chat scripts, clue analysis, and other detailed practical features, and handed them over to the High-tech Zone Branch.

After the professionals met, they quickly discovered that these cases had obvious internet elements, novel methods, and exploited the common psychology of most people who yearn for love and pursue profit, making it urgent to raise awareness of prevention.

And this is what's known as a "pig butchering scam".

What Ms. S encountered was a new type of high-IQ crime that is unprecedented in Jiangcheng and even the whole country.

To her surprise, this desperate consultation not only helped her see through the scam, but also unexpectedly became a key entry point to tear open a huge fraud network.

"Holy crap! Team leader! You guys need to come quick!"

"I scrolled through the form, and today's lead count is three times higher than before!"

"So many inquiries!!! And new customers hardly ask any questions, and we close the deal in just a few words."

"Could it be that the interviews conducted by major media outlets have already begun to have an effect so quickly?"

After lunch break, the sales department immediately sent good news.

Wei Yifan, still half-asleep, was rubbing his eyes at his workstation when the new employee next to him couldn't help but raise his voice in surprise.

"probably."

Wei Yifan was interrupted by the operations team not far away when he was only halfway through his sentence.

"Definitely! In the past, when people saw our posts on SEM or news feed channels, they might have thought we were scammers or unreliable. Even if there were legal issues, they wouldn't be willing to come and consult us with real money so quickly."

"Now, a quick online search reveals nothing but positive reports, complete with official endorsements—it's practically a royal decree!"

"If you have any legal issues this time, you can rest assured and come to us for help!"

The voice from operations was equally confident.

Lie down and win!

Winning by lying down and doing absolutely nothing!

With such a capable and innovative leader, their entire department doesn't even need to employ any fancy operational techniques.

Great Confucian scholars have always been there to clarify the principles and debate the classics.

In fact, media coverage of Mingli has only just begun.

Compared to the Legal Daily's more professional approach, which emphasizes legal discourse and focuses on the specifics of "pig butchering scam" cases, other media outlets also have their own unique ways of expression.

Different perspectives lead to different entry points.

For example, the Jiangcheng Daily, which is also a well-known newspaper, takes a completely different approach.

Jiangcheng Daily's focus is on the inherent value of Mingli Legal Consulting Company.

—Police-enterprise collaboration: a new value beyond mediation.

The Jiangcheng Daily emphasized this point in its report.

The successful resolution of this case vividly demonstrates the immense value of Mingli Legal Consulting Company's fully online case sourcing model in combating new types of crime.

The reporter even went so far as to use his writing skills and expertise to come up with three new terms.

Front-end identification of outposts!

As a window for a large number of grassroots legal consultations, Mingli Company has a unique advantage in identifying early signs of new crimes.

With the added expertise of a lawyer, civil disputes can be quickly distinguished from criminal offenses, preventing missed opportunities. Professional support is key!

During the investigation of the case, the legal professional support, communication assistance with the victim, and evidence sorting capabilities provided by lawyers effectively assisted the public security, procuratorial, and judicial departments, greatly improving the efficiency and quality of case handling.

Build bridges of trust!

After being scammed, victims often hesitate to seek help from the authorities for various reasons.

As the initial legal counsel sought by the client, Mingli Company naturally played a crucial role in establishing trust and facilitating communication.

I can write.

Regardless of whether the reporters who wrote the feature story received a letter of explanation or not, no one questioned their professional competence.

The story seemed to have been retelled from different angles several times, adding even more embellishment.

In this report, Mingli Company has become the focus.

That's such a great writer.

At the end of the report, even a leader from the High-tech Zone branch stated:

“Mingli Legal Consulting played a crucial role in this case. Their keen professional insight, standardized evidence collection guidance, and efficient collaboration mechanism provided strong support for our rapid case filing and precise prosecution.”

"Next, we will continue to deepen our cooperation with Mingli Company, focusing on responding to new and complex cases, leveraging the advantages of the new police-enterprise collaboration model, taking proactive responsibility, and striving to build a safer and more law-abiding Jiangcheng."

Not to mention the netizens who kept nodding and exclaiming "Awesome!", even the long-time employees of Mingli Company who knew the company inside and out were genuinely amazed.

So we weren't just cogs in the traffic distribution machine?

Wow, the legal profession we're in is so amazing!
So we really were working for fairness and justice?

People quickly picked up their phones, forwarding, liking, and commenting, eager to share the article on their WeChat Moments while also making several phone calls to family and friends to let everyone know that the report was about their own company.

As the internet spreads exponentially, reaching more readers, it instantly boosts feelings of belonging and pride.

Meanwhile, Shen Yunrong, a resident of Jiangnan Jiayuan community, was also one of the target groups reached.

As a university teacher within the system, she pays close attention to many articles published on official media WeChat accounts.

But right now, she saw the latest news about an acquaintance on TV.

"He Min?"

"How did she end up on TV?"

In the late afternoon, Shen Yunrong had just finished get off work and was washing vegetables in the living room, preparing to cook dinner.

Because she lives alone, she has a habit of turning on the TV when she cooks, so that there are some other sounds in the house.

While she was chopping vegetables, the TV happened to be playing a local Jiangcheng channel. Standing in the kitchen, she heard familiar voices coming from the living room.

Shen Yunrong curiously peeked into the living room.

Upon seeing this, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he was never able to return.

On the television screen, He Min, with her exquisite makeup, confident expression, and sharp suit, was speaking eloquently into the microphone.

Reporter: "What is your opinion on this major fraud case?"

He Min: "This case has made us realize more deeply that legal consulting firms cannot only focus on traditional contract disputes and neighborhood conflicts."

"Faced with the emergence of new types of crimes, we must use our professional advantages to become the 'frontline sentinels' protecting the public's money. We hope to work closely with the High-tech Zone Branch and even more units to enable us to put this responsibility into practice."

Reporter: "Could you talk about the future from Mingli Company's perspective, and how to achieve legal cooperation?"

He Min: "In terms of collaboration, trust and standardization are the foundation, and a mechanism for rapid response and effective communication is the guarantee. The authorities trust our professional judgment and professional ethics, and we strictly abide by the law and collaboration procedures to ensure that we neither overstep our bounds nor fail to fulfill our responsibilities."

"As for the future, Mingli Company hopes to participate more deeply in the fight against economic crimes involving the public, such as telecommunications fraud and illegal fundraising. At the same time, we will transform new criminal methods and characteristics of vulnerable groups discovered in our cases into easy-to-understand legal education content as quickly as possible to raise public awareness of prevention. This case has recovered not only money, but also everyone's confidence in the rule of law."

Shen Yunrong's mouth formed an "O" shape as she stood there, stunned, not even having time to put the cabbage back in her hand in the kitchen. She was completely dumbfounded.

This...this is He Min?

Is this He Min, who graduated just a year ago?

How can she speak on behalf of Mingli Company!
Did you read that right?

Shen Yunrong looked dazed and rubbed her eyes repeatedly before finally confirming that she hadn't mistaken the person for someone else.

After calming down, she regained her basic thinking ability.

He Min, who came to the school last time to discuss sponsoring the freshman welcome party, seems to be more than just an ordinary employee at a legal consulting firm.

Recalling her self-assured tone during the interview, she must have at least reached a middle management position at Mingli Company, right?

That is
She is no ordinary grassroots employee. Especially considering her high-level perspective and broad vision, she is likely aware of my case and may even have participated in the anti-phishing strategy against the scammers!

Shen Yunrong was in a state of confusion and blushed instantly.

Knowing the details of the case isn't a big deal; it shouldn't lead to my identity being identified, right?
They probably don't know that Shen Yunrong went online to find love and got scammed, right?

How embarrassing would it be if acquaintances found out?
Shen Yunrong lost her appetite for cooking, so she simply took out her phone and started browsing the web.

This swipe actually brought up quite a few messages.

For example, a report from another media outlet.

[Resolving everyday family conflicts through online consultations, offering hope to victims of fraud in their despair, and issuing warnings when new types of crime emerge—Mingli Legal Consulting Company, in partnership with the police, is actively working on the "hidden front" of safeguarding the peace and tranquility of the people of Wuhan.]

[Tearing open the sweet trap of "pig butchering scams" is not only a victory in the fight against crime, but also the most vivid interpretation of the rule of law for the people—An interview with He Min, Assistant to the Chairman and Deputy General Manager of Mingli Legal Consulting Co., Ltd.]

Deputy General Manager?
Shen Yunrong selectively ignored the preceding modifiers and focused on the parts she could understand.

She actually became the deputy general manager!
Shen Yunrong suddenly felt that something was strange.

Oh right! I remember now!
She then browsed through the official WeChat accounts of government agencies she had followed before and quickly found the ones that had left a deep impression on her.

I finally figured out what was wrong.

While serving as the deputy general manager of Mingli Company, He Min also represented Jieyou Media on numerous occasions to visit various government agencies to explain innovative entrepreneurship projects.

In the picture, He Min still looks radiant, her eyes shining brightly, as if she were engaged in a sunrise industry to which she has devoted herself wholeheartedly.

Strange, so strange.

Fortunately, I am the mentor of Jieyou Media and have a considerable understanding of it.

This is clearly Zhou Mingyuan's MCN company, so how did He Min get involved with him?
Not to mention that he frequently went out to give presentations on behalf of Jieyou Media.

This requires working together for a long time and having sufficient trust.

Working together for a long time.
Sufficient trust.
No, no, no!

As if she had grasped something crucial, Shen Yunrong quickly scrolled through the page and returned to the interview she had just seen.

She clicked on He Min's title, zoomed in, and zoomed in again.

Chairman's Assistant He Min.

But who is the chairman?
