Is a famous lawyer rich?

There are three lawyers' blogs, which I am more interested in. They all started from Sina: lawyers, lawyers and lawyers Hu. Among them, they all talked about some views on the lawyer industry, especially Qiu, a lawyer in Shenzhen, who can sometimes publish four or five articles a day. I have been paying attention to his articles for a long time, and I feel that he is profound and a thinker, especially about the development of lawyer business. It is said that he published the monograph "Poor Lawyers, Rich Lawyers". Lawyer Qin Bing is famous for defending the rights and interests of buyers and confronting developers and the government. His 204 purchase contracts are famous all over the country. But I saw a video of this lawyer giving a speech at a university. At first, I wrote my name and mobile phone number on the blackboard, saying that students can send text messages to him directly if they have any questions. To tell the truth, this way doesn't feel very good, as if to promote yourself and develop business. If business develops like this, I don't think his business is very optimistic. Lawyer Qin Bing wrote in his blog that after 204 became famous, he not only failed to generate economic benefits, but received endless phone calls every day, and posted a phone bill of 1000 yuan a month. Later, I also checked what kind of law firm this barrister was in. The investigation is really shocking: Beijing Yitong Law Firm has just been punished by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Justice and ordered to suspend business for six months. The director of the institute wrote an open letter on its website, accusing the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Justice of evading state taxes, and so on. How indignant! Judging from the relevant cases handled by the institute, they are basically "deeds" that safeguard the rights and interests of small owners and confront powerful developers and the government. The firm was ordered to suspend business for half a year, which means that all lawyers in the firm, including our famous lawyer Qin Bing, should suspend the protection of clients' rights and interests. Lawyer Qiu published an article on the website of Shenzhen Lawyers Association a few years ago. Some people called him a "black lawyer" because he claimed to be a lawyer, but his name was not on the list published by Shenzhen Lawyers Association. Later, I had it. I guess it was transferred later. . In his article, he said that in 2005, he met a very unhappy thing and met the wrong partner at the wrong time, which caused great losses. Write articles online when you have nothing to do. Unexpectedly, these articles have had a great social impact. Later, they were compiled and published, causing a sensation throughout the country. Lawyer Qiu is a famous lawyer at least in Shenzhen. His profound thinking on the present situation and status of lawyers is of great guiding significance to any lawyer in China. Lawyer Qiu is knowledgeable, and what he writes makes people feel a little dizzy. Unlike the radical remarks that dare to accuse "Mr. Wen" on the Internet, Qiu's article has a firm political stance. His theory that China can't engage in "separation of powers" and the related exposition of the wisdom of the * * * production party are all quotations, which makes people feel a bit metaphysical. Of course, I also insist on this position, but I don't think China can be independent of the judiciary, because China's judiciary can't be independent, and we insist on the leadership of China's * * * production party, because we have a good leader. The biggest judicial problem in China is corruption, but the reason for corruption is the lack of supervision. Without supervision, judicial independence is still empty talk. Having said that, I still have to care about whether the famous lawyer Qiu has money. Judging from lawyer Qiu's recent blog post, he also lacks an investment mind. In 2004, he invested in buying two suites, but he just didn't lose money and sold them immediately for fear of making mistakes (if it is three years later, it is estimated that it will at least double! )。 And because "his brain turns too fast every day to drive", he still doesn't even have a driver's license. So I estimate that lawyer Qiu's income from writing articles and publishing books should exceed that from his lawyer's business. Lawyer Qiu is famous for writing about how lawyers carry out their business, but only he knows how his business is carried out, just as coaches are good at guiding players, but they can't compete with them. Lawyer Hu of Guangzhou used to be a legal adviser in the army. He could have become a higher-level civil servant, but he became a lawyer. I like his concise writing very much. Among them, his description when he first came out to find Chen Zhuolun, the best lawyer in Guangdong, was particularly unforgettable. Lawyer Qiu said that Chen Zhuolun should be classified as a "red top lawyer", and I quite agree. However, I learned that he was from Raoping, Guangdong Province, and Yang, the former director of the Executive Board of the Guangdong Higher People's Court who was arrested, was a fellow countryman and an alumnus. And they are all related to Huang Songyou, the arrested vice president of the Supreme Court, and they are also fellow villagers. So I understand why this barrister told my little lawyer so lightly that "we don't have a booth" and politely refused his request to join. Although Mr. Hu also described it and Mr. Chen invited him to drink a cup of kung fu tea, it seems to be the courtesy of Cantonese people. In fact, he only cares about the knowledge of an official. It is said that the lawyer's annual business income in Hongding in his early years has exceeded 10 million, which is estimated to be the earliest lawyer with a net worth of over 100 million in Guangdong. On the other hand, Mr. Hu, who likes to write articles, probably doesn't have any money. The lawsuit he saw was also a "complaint". In such a society, it seems rare to find a successful case through the professional ability and proper channels of lawyers without offending all parties. In fact, an administrative judgment of Zhuhai court published by Mr. Hu angrily on the Internet is only one of thousands of unreasonable legal documents in China, and there is no particularity at all. -Can the judiciary be independent? In fact, there are really many lawyers worth mentioning. I remember when I was a graduate student, I often quoted an article by lawyer Guo, who was a top international lawyer in international economic law, especially maritime law. Later, because of defending * *, I made political mistakes and finally had to hide abroad. Originally thought that dealing with foreign-related economic cases should be very rich, but later found in the article that before going abroad, I had to borrow 30 thousand yuan from others for "living expenses"; There is also an old lawyer whose name is not clear. It is said that he didn't like judicial corruption and became a monk-after thinking for a long time, he came to a conclusion: many lawyers are famous among the people/ordinary people, and such fame probably won't bring income in general, and may also bring "telephone charges"; Some lawyers are well-known among officials, including judicial officials. There may not be anything special about their profession, but becoming a "red-top lawyer" means extraordinary interests, and of course it also implies the transaction of power and money behind it. They are worried that something will happen to the public one day. Some lawyers have made an impact by virtue of their professional knowledge, and they have also been unanimously recognized by the public and officials. Of course, their business income is also "top scraping"! Personally, the third kind of lawyer should be our legitimate goal at present.
