Me! A disgraced celebrity! Starting by seeking justice for impoverished students.
Chapter 6: Preparing to Gather Evidence!
When the audience learned that Jiang Chen planned to use legal means to file a lawsuit, the comments section exploded!
Wait, Jiang Chen, are you serious?
[Seriously... I'm speechless. Suing someone over a student grant? Has anyone ever done something like this before?]
To be honest, in all my years of surfing the internet, I've never seen anyone go to court over student grants!
[Usually, these cases are resolved through internal school mediation, or at most, through online posting. The cost of filing a lawsuit is too high!]
[And besides... will the court even accept this kind of case? I have my doubts!]
[Jiang Chen, don't be impulsive! Let's figure out the process first!]
There were voices of discussion, and of course, there were also voices of doubt.
Why do I feel like this is just a publicity stunt?
[Got it, got it. First, establish a righteous persona to gain favor, then start live-streaming sales in a couple of days!]
[I know all the tricks! First, play the victim, then assert justice, and finally, post a link: "Family members, these fruits for farmers are only 9.9 yuan with free shipping!"]
Hahaha... That's so true!
[Jiang Chen, if you were to start selling products through livestreaming, I'd be the first to place an order, as long as you can really help them win their lawsuit!]
[Upstairs, are you a shill too?]
Jiang Chen looked at the comments, but he was neither angry nor in a hurry to refute them.
He picked up the water glass next to him, took a sip, and slowly put it down.
I have a question for everyone.
His tone was very serious.
"What do you think...a student grant is?"
The chat was quiet for a moment, with only a few scattered comments appearing:
[Isn't it just money for poor students?]
[These are funds issued by the government to help impoverished students complete their studies.]
Yes, the eligibility criteria are being registered as a poverty-stricken or low-income family!
Jiang Chen nodded.
"Yes! Scholarships are established by the government to ensure that no student drops out of school due to family financial difficulties."
"It's not charity, not a scholarship, and certainly not money given as a favor!"
"It's a child from a poor family, whose fate hangs in the balance: whether they can afford food, textbooks, and even survival at university!"
When he spoke the word "fate," his voice became more forceful and weighty.
"So you're asking me, is it worth suing for a student grant?"
Has anyone ever done this before?
Jiang Chen looked directly at the camera, his eyes calm but revealing a resolute determination.
"Then I'll tell you."
"Just because no one has done this before doesn't mean it shouldn't be done!"
"Just because no one is filing a lawsuit doesn't mean it can't!"
"Before the law, there is essentially no difference between one dollar and one hundred million!"
"Everyone has the right to take up legal weapons when their rights are violated!"
In Jiang Chen's view, although the amount of money involved was not large, it was the entire livelihood of a poor student!
At this point, Jiang Chen paused, his tone softening.
"I'm not doing this for publicity, and I have no intention of selling products through this platform."
"I just can't stand it!"
"A rich kid trying to steal a scholarship from a student from a registered impoverished family?"
"If no one takes action on this kind of thing, who will still believe in student aid? Who will still believe in fairness?"
"If even the path to changing one's destiny through education is blocked by the wealthy with money, what hope is there for this society?"
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, the live stream room fell silent for a few seconds.
Then, the comments section went on a crazy rampage!
[I...I actually got a little teary-eyed from what he said!]
He's right, just because no one has done it before doesn't mean it shouldn't be done!
Has Jiang Chen really changed? Or am I seeing things?
I admit, I initially thought he was just creating hype, but now... I'm starting to believe it!
[Based on this statement alone, I'm paying attention to this matter! If he succeeds, I'll be the first to help clear his name!]
Don't be too quick to be moved; let's see if he can actually pull it off!
Yes, talking about it isn't enough; we have to see how he does it!
Jiang Chen watched the shift in the direction of the comments and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Alright, that's all for now."
"Next, I'm ready to officially launch this case!"
He sat up straight and said with a serious expression.
"My first step will be to contact the siblings and collect evidence in person."
"The second step is to organize the materials and draft the indictment."
"The third step is to file a lawsuit in a court with jurisdiction!"
"I will broadcast the entire process live in the studio, so everyone can see for themselves whether a case of stolen student aid can actually be prosecuted!"
At this moment, Lin Wan, who was on the live stream, slowly spoke.
"Brother Jiang, is collecting this evidence... difficult?"
"I heard that to prosecute someone, a complete chain of evidence is required..."
They are not professionals; they just think that suing others is a hassle.
Many ordinary people are the same; they don't use the law to protect themselves, not because they are unwilling.
It's just because they don't understand those rules and regulations.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen smiled faintly and nodded.
"No rush, let me briefly explain what kind of evidence is needed for this type of case."
He started counting on his fingers, listing them one by one.
"First, proof of poverty. Documents proving eligibility for student aid, such as those for registered impoverished households or low-income certificates, are fundamental to qualifying for financial aid!"
"But I saw that your materials are all complete, so there's no problem."
"Secondly, relevant documents regarding the school's scholarship selection process, including the selection rules, notices, application deadlines, etc., serve as reference evidence to prove whether the selection process is legal and compliant!"
"Third, evidence proving that the spot was taken by someone else—this is the core!"
Jiang Chen raised his third finger, his tone becoming more serious.
This crucial piece of evidence is the core of everything!
"I need the chat logs, text messages, or call recordings that counselor Zhou Haibo sent to Lin Xuyang."
"Furthermore, we also need proof of the rich kid's poverty. If he used false documents, that would be forgery, which is illegal!"
"Finally, there are witness testimonies—testimonies from other students in the dormitory, students who know the facts, and witnesses who are willing to testify in court!"
The conditions may sound numerous, but they are actually quite simple to handle.
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he lowered his hand and looked at the camera.
"There are roughly these three categories."
"It sounds like a lot, but they actually already have a lot of the materials."
"What's missing are mainly records of communications with the counselor, Zhao Tianyu, and others, as well as details of the school's internal selection process!"
"I'll collect these one by one during the upcoming live streams!"
The screen was flooded with comments again.
[I get it now, so that's how much stuff you need to go through to file a lawsuit!]
Jiang Chen's thinking is so clear; it doesn't seem like a spur-of-the-moment decision!
Could this be a staged event, designed to whitewash his image?
[Upstairs, just how bad is Jiang Chen's image in your eyes?!]
He really is a licensed lawyer; now I believe it!
[I'm already looking forward to it, Brother Jiang, when are you going to contact the siblings?]
【Yes! When? I want to see it now!】
