1988, Zhou Chenghai signed up for the appointment of the principal of Xianju Vocational and Technical School, the first experimental teaching reform in Zhejiang Province, and the competition was fierce. Finally, Zhou Chenghai took the campaign with the highest total score as the principal, and once became the object of chasing reports by provincial and municipal media.
As a principal for four years, Zhou Chenghai has experienced the ups and downs of his life and all aspects of the world. At the same time, with the rise of market economy, Zhou Chenghai has seen the vitality of this new field of law. He made a move that surprised his colleagues-voluntarily giving up the position of principal and working in a law firm of the Justice Bureau, which began another turning point in his life.
Zhou Chenghai is well aware of the high requirements of becoming an excellent lawyer. He can write with a pen, which is logical and concise. Open your mouth to argue and get to the point; Dabble in the marginal subject of law and be a saint. As a teacher, Zhou Chenghai quickly became a "leader" in the industry and passed the national lawyer qualification examination in the second half of 1988.
1997 Zhou Chenghai established Zhejiang anzhou law firm in partnership with others. The business volume of his Anzhou law firm has been rising year after year, and the results are gratifying. In recent years, Anzhou Law Firm has handled various cases 1000, and recovered more than 80 million yuan in economic losses. Handle more than 30 major, difficult and complicated cases; By more than 30 enterprises and institutions and government departments as perennial legal counsel; Free legal aid cases 100; Accepted legal advice 1 10,000 person-times, and exempted lawyer's agency fee of * * * 65,438+10,000 yuan. Zhou Chenghai was repeatedly rated as an advanced individual by the county judicial system. 1998 was the first "Top Ten" lawyer in Taizhou, the director of the sixth Zhejiang Lawyers Association in 2004, and the executive director of Taizhou Lawyers Association in 2006. His law firm 1998 was awarded as an excellent unit of Xianju County's political and legal system and the first civilized law firm in Taizhou, and was awarded as an excellent law firm in Taizhou in 2005. Every time I look back on my life, Zhou Chenghai will say with emotion, I gave up a lot, but gained more. The society has recognized my value, because I can better serve the society with legal knowledge.
Zhou Chenghai strengthens its own quality at home, expands its service field abroad, and achieves self-transcendence again and again. With the rapid development of private economy, Zhou Chenghai realized that a large number of non-litigation businesses, such as foreign-related trade cases, enterprise project negotiations and enterprise risk mitigation, would inevitably develop. Private enterprises need lawyers who know both law and management to serve them, and the lawyer industry will get unprecedented opportunities and challenges. In order to meet the needs of non-litigation service, in 2002, Zhou Cheng passed the MBA postgraduate course of China Renmin University, and systematically studied the course of enterprise management, making himself a compound talent who knows both law and management, expanding the new world of serving private enterprises and better embodying his own value.
A small enterprise with an annual output value of 50 million yuan, how to mobilize the enthusiasm of middle and high-level managers, let the business owner Zhao hurt his brain. Zhao solicited the opinions of, and combined with the reality of small and medium-sized private enterprises in Zhejiang at this stage, thought that enterprises were not suitable for completely adopting modern company system, and designed a set of plans for them. The mode of supplementing wages with share dividends. Determine the total annual salary of managers, of which 60% is fixed salary and 40% is dividend salary, and determine the working capital of enterprises as 5 million yuan. The profit rate is 8%, the annual output value is 50 million yuan and the expected profit is 4 million yuan. Dividends are paid by shares. Dividends below 50 million yuan will be reduced accordingly, and dividends above 50 million yuan will be increased accordingly. After two years of trial implementation of this system, the enthusiasm of middle and senior managers has been significantly improved, the cohesion of enterprises has been enhanced, and the business volume has also increased at a rate of 20%.
While paying attention to economic benefits, Zhou Chenghai pays more attention to social benefits, and cares more about vulnerable groups and social public affairs. In 2004, Zhou Chenghai volunteered to be the perennial legal adviser of Xianju Charity Federation, and donated 5,000 yuan. In order to solve the problem of legal services for minors in the county, Zhou Chenghai Law Firm and the Communist Youth League Committee took the lead in setting up a juvenile legal service center and opening a hotline for juvenile legal services. Since its establishment, the center has only voluntarily received more than 200 consultations. At the same time, Zhou Chenghai also volunteered to be the perennial legal adviser of Xianju County Arts and Crafts Association and Xianju County Private Enterprise Research Association, and established a good image of lawyers upholding justice, caring for vulnerable groups and serving the local economy.
Zhejiang Anzhou Law Firm, headed by Zhou Chenghai, pays more attention to the quality of handling cases and the construction of lawyers' professional ethics while paying attention to economic benefits. Zhou Chenghai's good professional ethics and achievements have won him high social prestige. In 2000, Zhou Chenghai was gloriously elected as the sole representative of Taizhou Municipal People's Congress. From 65438 to 0998, he was elected as a member of the Sixth CPPCC of Xianju County, and in 2003, he was elected as a member of the Standing Committee of the Sixth CPPCC. Since then, while doing his job well, Zhou Chenghai has shouldered another burden, that is, he is responsible for the lawyers in Taizhou and the legal system construction in China, especially the improvement of the lawyer system.
During his tenure as a member of CPPCC County Committee, a member of the Standing Committee of CPPCC County Committee, and a representative of the Municipal People's Congress, Zhou Chenghai actively made suggestions and participated in the discussion of state affairs. Participated in the special speech of the county CPPCC conference for 3 times, and the Standing Committee of the county CPPCC spoke for more than 20 times. He submitted more than 30 proposals and materials to the county CPPCC conference and more than 20 proposals to Taizhou Municipal People's Congress, which made contributions to the development of local economic construction and legal system construction.
Zhou Chenghai made full use of the CPPCC proposal, an important form for CPPCC members to participate in and discuss state affairs. In the past nine years, he actively submitted proposals to the CPPCC conference, covering the county's economic development, urban management, environmental protection, new rural construction and other aspects, which were recognized by various government departments, and most of the proposals were adopted and implemented.
CPPCC information is a through train from grass-roots social conditions and public opinion to the city, province and central government. Zhou Chenghai takes CPPCC information as a quick channel to actively reflect social conditions and public opinion. In view of the repeated prohibition of extorting confessions by torture in reality, Zhou Chenghai believes that the fundamental reason is that the detention organ and the investigation organ are the same department, and they have lost mutual supervision, and often take criminal suspects away from the detention place for "special trials", which seriously infringes on the personal rights of criminal suspects. In response to this common problem, Zhou Chenghai reported the information of "Suggestions on the Detention Organs of Investigation Organs", which was adopted by the municipal, provincial and CPPCC successively, and attracted the attention of the CPPCC.
In judicial practice, Zhou Chenghai discovered the provisions of Articles 128 and 133 of the Constitution, that is, local people's courts at all levels and people's procuratorates are responsible to the organs of state power that produced them; However, the Organic Law of the People's Courts and the Organic Law of the People's Procuratorate stipulate that local people's courts and people's procuratorates at all levels are responsible for and report their work to the organs of state power that produced them. In reality, both the government and the Second Hospital are responsible to the organs of state power and report their work. In this regard, the community questioned whether the two houses reported their work to the National People's Congress. In order to solve this problem, Zhou Chenghai reported the information of "Suggestions on Amending Articles 128 and 133 of the Constitution", which was adopted by the city, province and CPPCC.
At the same time, as a representative of the second and third sessions of Taizhou Municipal People's Congress, Zhou Chenghai conscientiously performed his duties as a representative by using the law, bills of the National People's Congress and discussions by delegations. The content involves regional coordinated development, urban and rural planning, speeding up the development of the western region, judicial justice and other aspects, which has attracted great attention from the municipal party Committee, the municipal government and relevant departments.
When Zhou Chenghai visited Zhejiang Wenling Detention Center, he found that when lawyers met with criminal suspects and defendants, plexiglass was separated, and holes as big as 10 chopsticks were drilled in plexiglass, so lawyers could not see each other's faces clearly and could not hear each other clearly, which affected the meeting. Today, China's legal system construction and lawyer practice have been in line with the world in Zhejiang. Faced with this discriminatory practice, Zhou Chenghai led the Municipal People's Congress to put forward proposals such as "No Discrimination in Meeting Lawyers in Detention Centers" and "Comprehensive Protection of Lawyers' Practice Rights". These two suggestions have attracted the attention of the relevant departments and corrected the wrong practices of the detention center. The difficulty for lawyers to meet criminal suspects has also been gradually solved, ensuring the full implementation and enforcement of the Lawyers Law.
In view of the fact that all self-investigation cases of local people's procuratorates at all levels are reviewed and prosecuted by themselves and tried by local courts, which is not conducive to the mutual supervision of the public, procuratorial organs and laws, Zhou Chenghai proposed to the Municipal People's Congress that self-investigation cases of people's procuratorates should be reviewed, prosecuted and tried in different places, which was adopted by the Municipal People's Procuratorate and gradually implemented throughout the city.
While submitting the proposal, Zhou Chenghai also actively participated in the law enforcement inspection of environmental protection law, land management law, criminal procedure law, lawyer law and forest law, and put forward many good suggestions to promote the process of governing the city according to law.
