While there won't be any changes to the procedures, many things have become more "accommodating"—for example, You Mo himself can choose not to come without receiving any warning.
The reason why Youmo didn't come is quite simple:
Just kidding, Blue Star has tens of thousands of fans, a huge crowd!
If he were to show up at the scene, he might get pelted with rotten eggs by those angry players until he dies.
Therefore, he would never dare to show his face directly.
Mingyan, who was in the plaintiff's seat, frowned slightly when he saw this scene.
He was very unhappy that the other party was using some underhanded tactics.
After thinking for a moment, Mingyan made a phone call to Xia Cheng.
After he explained the situation, Xia Cheng immediately said, "This is simple." Then he hung up.
The call lasted only about thirty seconds.
Then, about a few more minutes passed.
A court staff member rushed in from outside the reconciliation room and whispered a few words in the judge's ear.
The judge's face immediately changed, turning deathly pale and then bluish-purple.
He pursed his lips and began tidying up the files on his desk.
The reconciliation process was interrupted for a time.
The defense attorney seemed puzzled and tentatively asked, "And what about our side...?"
The judge gave him a resentful look and said, "This case is no longer under my jurisdiction. A prosecutor has come from above. You can handle it yourselves."
It turns out they changed people at the last minute.
Ming said he only made a phone call, which lasted no more than fifteen minutes.
The situation suddenly changed, and the opposing lawyer broke out in a cold sweat.
All he knew was that Mingyan was a self-made businessman... but rather than a businessman, he was more like a game producer.
But he didn't expect that there were hidden political forces behind Mingyan.
And it's quite powerful!
The new prosecutor in charge of the case arrived at the scene quickly.
He was holding a complete file folder in his hand, and he immediately began to thoroughly read the important materials.
When he raised his head again, his serious face conveyed a sense of authority.
"You may begin."
Although the defense attorney's rhythm was disrupted, he still maintained basic professionalism.
He picked up his materials and began to talk at length about the issue of "cheating software creation".
But Mingyan started laughing halfway through his sentence.
They were laughing very happily!
This immediately filled the defendant with a mixture of shock and anger: "What are you laughing at?"
Mingyan smiled and said, "It's nothing, there's something I need to report to Your Honor."
Because it's a preliminary procedure before the formal court hearing, the rules aren't that strict.
The judge nodded slightly, indicating that Mingyan should speak directly.
Ming clasped his hands together calmly and said, "We plan to amend the lawsuit before the trial. Let's put the 'cheating software' issue aside for now—"
The defendant exclaimed in surprise, "Then what do you want to do?"
Mingyan smiled slightly: "I'll sue you for obstructing cybersecurity."
defendant:"……"
Everyone: "..."
Like a sudden clap of thunder in spring, the defense lawyer was so startled that he stood up abruptly from his chair.
A series of thoughts raced through his mind.
—The crime of endangering cybersecurity?! This is a crime that endangers public affairs, and in terms of severity, it's nowhere near as serious as creating cheat software…
—What did Youmo do wrong? He just made a cheat program, is it really that big of a deal?!
—Wait, could it be…
“That’s right, we carefully studied the ‘third-party program’ created by the Youmo team.”
Mingyan pronounced the last five words clearly with emphasis.
He then presented another certificate from an authoritative institution and submitted a copy to the judge above him.
"The program has certain vulnerabilities in its design and is suspected of directly reading and tampering with players' data in the game League of Legends. This not only infringes on players' privacy rights, but also deliberately leaves extremely serious security risks and spreads them maliciously."
"An investigation revealed that at least two million people were using this cheat software, which, according to criminal law, fully qualifies as a serious public safety incident."
