Tokyo Barrister: Start the law firm bankruptcy

Chapter 532 Report
night.

Kyoto University, Administration Building, Conference Room on the top floor.

Compared with the report during the first court hearing, the number of people in this luxurious conference room is now only a dozen or so people.Meeting participants are fewer in number, yet more important.In the conference room, apart from Takeuchi, Asakurahiko, and Takezawa, there are also people who are at the core of the university's power hierarchy, such as school trustees and school supervisors.At first, university executives were inclined to dismiss the lawsuit as a trite case.

However, after today's trial, there was a large area of ​​media coverage, overwhelming.In particular, it involves the inside story and details of many cases, a considerable part of which are unfavorable to the university.The advantage of public opinion that was originally beneficial to the university in the early stage has a faint tendency to be reversed at this moment.With this in mind, the top figures in the university's power hierarchy couldn't help but start paying attention to this lawsuit.The secretary appointed by the principal also attended the meeting today.

In the corner of the meeting room, there are also administrative staff who are responsible for recording the meeting.They will record the content of today's meeting, and transmit the meeting minutes to the powerful figures on campus in an encrypted manner.

Takeuchi leaned against the back of the conference chair, with one hand resting on the armrest of the chair, with a deep and serious expression.He is not used to the atmosphere of today's meeting.As the current vice president, Takeuchi is a powerful figure in the university. It has been a long time since he felt under scrutiny in today's meeting, and he felt particularly uncomfortable for this.

In today's trial report meeting, the senior management of the university will have a better understanding of the events of the case.

And examine some of Takeuchi's previous strategies.

"I believe you have also seen many reports from the media." The principal's secretary put stacks of today's news magazines on the table.

One magazine cover after another with bright colors and shocking Chinese fonts is displayed in front of you.The top magazine with a black cover printed a very eye-catching title: "Kyoto University, a modern version of academic research sweatshop." And the subtitle below it is - "The Ph.D. None of the students entered the paper acknowledgment list."

And the next few books are printed with "Revocation of Ph.D. Disturbance-Kyoto University Refused to Submit Internal Meeting Minutes" or "Ph.D. Revocation Case-The Supervisor of the Department of Life Sciences of Kyoto University Is Hidden in this Case", etc. Such intentionally eye-catching statements.

"We believe that Vice President Takeuchi is also unwilling to see the current situation." The principal's secretary glanced at the magazines one after another in front of him, "This is just a written magazine report. Many local TV stations in Kyoto are at the golden hour of today's dinner. Every now and then there is news that is not good for the university."

"Please tell the principal." Takeuchi frowned slightly, and said, "There is no battle in this world that can be won without paying a price. Fighting these vile people will inevitably be defeated." Splash some dirty water on it. There is no need to worry about this. The important thing is that Kyoto University's punishment of Mikiko's academic misconduct will not only not tarnish Kyoto University's reputation, but will further strengthen its reputation .”

The headmaster's secretary held a small notebook, looked at the items on it, and continued, "Professor Ochi, who taught the self-government association before, suggested in advance that he hoped to set up a new independent investigation team to re-investigate Mikiko's plagiarism. Why, You didn't take Professor Ochi's advice before this lawsuit broke out?"

When Takeuchi heard Ochi's name, his eyes showed a hint of displeasure.

It seems that Ochi has gathered the opposition forces inside the campus and lobbied to the principal.

This kind of person is really only going to make mistakes! !

"In the previous university meeting, I have already expressed why I did not establish a new independent investigation team. On the issue of the handling of student degrees, the internal caliber of the university must be unified. The establishment of a new independent investigation team seems to be It’s a beautiful idea, but it doesn’t have any operability in practice. Especially if the findings of the new independent investigation team disagree with the opinions of the original university expert group, it will undoubtedly exacerbate the division of the university.”

Takeuchi began to speak eloquently, "Moreover, the establishment of such a so-called independent investigation team within the existing regulations of the university may lead to more complicated legal issues. The existing university regulations It has been stipulated that the investigation of academic misconduct is to be investigated by an expert group designated by the relevant committee. If an independent investigation team is established, the legal status of the team in the university is not clear. According to the conclusions made by this team, whether there is a university regulation The authority to be delegated is also a difficult question."

"So, setting up an independent investigation team is an unfeasible idea." Takeuchi continued, "People like Professor Ochi, yes, they have done a good job in learning, and I don't deny it. However, they lack the ability to engage in university administrative affairs. Experience. A university is a small society. The administrative management of a small society is also quite complicated. Many seemingly simple problems will actually lead to many complicated consequences that were not expected at the beginning. Therefore, the university The handling of relevant matters must be carried out by people with more experience in university administration. It is rash to make a seemingly fair and reasonable suggestion, but it will eventually cause more problems.”

While refuting the idea of ​​setting up a separate investigation team, Takeuchi secretly belittles his opponent Oshi.

As a veteran Takeuchi, he certainly understood the meaning of the principal's secretary in front of him.

On the surface, he was asking why he didn't follow Ochi's advice beforehand, but actually the principal was asking about the possibility of setting up an independent investigation team to remedy the situation.That is to say, is it possible to set up an investigation team as a backup to prevent unexpected situations from occurring up to now in the lawsuit.

Takeuchi would undoubtedly not agree to this approach.

If you agree, this is undoubtedly a slap in the face.

Because I was the one who resolutely rejected this idea at the beginning.

Takeuchi felt the possible thoughts from the principal behind the secretary, so he made a long speech against the establishment of an investigation team in the past few minutes.

The principal's secretary stared at his notebook, looked again, then raised his head, and asked abruptly:
"That is to say, Vice President Takeuchi, do you think the conclusions of the independent investigation team may be inconsistent with the conclusions of the existing expert group. Then, what do you think are the possible reasons for this inconsistency?"
