The world's tallest building, China Tower, is usually considered to have the top floor on the 102nd floor. On the 102nd floor, there is the most famous observation deck today, through which you can enjoy the view of Donghai City. There are also tourist restaurants, galleries, museums and other facilities. There is a separate sightseeing elevator open to tourists on the 102nd floor. After entering the building, take the elevator directly to the 102nd floor.
In fact, the building also has a 103rd floor, but it is not open to the public. It is mainly rented by Kunlun Radio and Television Company because Kunlun Radio and Television Company also has the right to use the communication antenna on the top floor for television, FM radio and emergency broadcasts.
On the 103rd floor, there is a small area separated from Kunlun Radio and Television Company.
In fact, it is a luxury suite with an area of only more than 300 square meters, which is considered the private property of Lu Ming, the real boss of Hua Xia Building.
After all, every inch of land is valuable, and I will never come here again, so the suite is not big, it can be said to be small, but I own a 300-square-meter private apartment in the Huaxia Building, on the top floor, which is the only one in the whole empire.
The suite's reception room has floor-to-ceiling glass windows that offer a bird's-eye view of the beautiful city scenery of the East China Sea, which is made up of glass-enclosed buildings that stand side by side. It is much more comfortable and relaxing than the observation deck.
Lu Ming was flipping through the newspaper. Yesterday, the Kingdom of Sonia launched a sudden attack without declaring war, and the war between it and the Kingdom of Griffinni officially broke out.
Today, more than two years later, the Kingdom of Sonia, with the Third Prince as its king, no longer accuses the Second Prince of inheriting the legitimacy of the King of Griffinni. Instead, he declares that he will succeed the Emperor of the Empire as the King of Sonia.
Unlike the conflict more than two years ago, this time, a real war broke out.
Local autonomous states and even those duchies that declared independence in the chaos took sides and formed two major groups. The total mobilized forces of both sides were nearly one million.
And according to the law, as the war progresses, I am afraid that more and more troops will be deployed.
The Eastern Alliance has already held emergency consultations. There is no doubt that it is impossible to remain immune and the war will spread sooner or later.
Within the Eastern Alliance, the main voice is that the Eastern Economic Union should seek a neutral status, and there are even some who believe that the old system of the Grand Duchy should be restored.
However, after seeing the scale of the war that broke out in the southwest, some members of the alliance became afraid, and gradually there were voices supporting the second or third prince, to prevent this region from being ravaged by the eventual victor who would march eastward.
Lu Ming was flipping through the newspaper. In fact, the empire was vast, and it was a war at the level of World War I. In his previous life, this war seemed to have taken place in another hemisphere, but after all, it was on the same continent. It was indeed impossible for the eastern region to remain immune.
It seems like it’s time for me to move.
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a gentle knock on the door, and a young woman led in two young girls, who were Tong Xiao'e and Tie Xiaojia.
Lu Ming couldn't help but smile slightly. Among the three disciples he formally accepted, Chen Qinghua was doing very well in Montenegro and was now the director of the Montenegro Special City Procuratorate. He was only in his twenties and not yet thirty years old, so his future was limitless.
Tong Xiao'e and Tie Xiaojia have been developing in Donghai and are already outstanding lawyers at Lu, Liu, Stewart & Wang Law Firm.
Due to their age, their ranks are not high, but like himself in the past, they often defeat high-ranking lawyers and are ranked among the top lawyers in Lu-Liu-Stewart-Wang Law Firm.
"Teacher!" Tong Xiao'e and Tie Xiaojia greeted politely.
Tong Xiao'e has long lost the arrogance of the young lady she used to have. She is wearing a black suit and has short, neat hair, and looks like a very professional career woman.
Tie Xiaojia looked like a rogue lawyer, wearing a black jacket, jeans, and densely packed earrings.
The judges are familiar with her style. Despite receiving many complaints and being locked up in a small dark room by the judges several times, Tie Xiaojia's professionalism is beyond reproach. She has also won several cases that seemed doomed to fail by using unexpected tactics.
As for being locked up in a small dark room, the judicial community believes that Tie Xiaojia has obviously inherited his teacher's glorious legacy, and there is nothing they can do about it.
When Lu Ming called to scold her, she was so shameless that she seemed proud of it instead of ashamed of it.
"You guys keep a close eye on that eucalyptus." Lu Ming looked at the two of them with a serious expression.
Tie Xiaojia, who was smiling, quickly became serious and nodded with Tong Xiaoe, saying, "Teacher, don't worry. You worked on this case a few years ago. Xiaoe and I just became your disciples and this is the first case we learn from you."
In the case of Gui Linghua v. Jiali Electric Appliances, Lu Mingling entrusted Gui Linghua to Lu, Liu, Stewart & Wang Law Firm.
Subsequently, the law firm formed an extremely strong team of lawyers to represent this case.
Tong Xiao'e and Tie Xiaojia are both members of the legal team.
Lu Ming pondered and said, "After this case is handled, you should all go to Zhenjiang. The judicial community there is in urgent need of talent. I have already thought of positions for both of you. You will each go to a city and serve as the chief judge."
Tong Xiao'e and Tie Xiaojia were both stunned. Tong Xiao'e didn't dare to say anything, but Tie Xiaojia asked in a low voice: "Teacher, won't people scold us behind our backs? We are both in our early twenties..."
Lu Ming waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. I appoint people based on their merits. I have watched you two grow up. With your professional abilities, it is no problem for you to be the chief judge of a city in Zhenjiang."
Come to think of it, the current situation of my own dominion is actually very similar to the founding periods of all dynasties in my previous lives. Only in this special period will young talents get all kinds of rocket-like promotion opportunities. In times of peace and stability, they have to wait for their age to be promoted based on seniority.
Lu Ming looked at them and said with a smile: "You have no confidence?"
"If the teacher thinks we can do it, then we definitely can do it!" Tie Xiaojia patted his chest.
Lu Ming looked at her and said helplessly, "As a judge, you can't have such an image. Take out those earrings later! You must respect the judge's robe and respect the court!"
Tie Xiaojia was a little discouraged, and nodded weakly: "Yes, I understand..."
"Well, go ahead!" Lu Ming pointed to a few thin pages of paper on the table, "Some ideas related to this case, take them and have a look for reference."
Tie Xiaojia immediately held it up as if it were a treasure, afraid that Tong Xiaoe would snatch it away, and said with a smile: "I know, I know!"
Tong Xiao'e glared at her and said to Lu Ming, "Teacher, please take care of your health."
Lu Ming smiled: "My eldest disciple is the most sensible and cares about the teacher the most."
Tong Xiao'e blushed slightly, pulled Tie Xiaojia, bowed and left.
Lu Ming looked at their backs, smiled and shook his head, then picked up a red phone on the table and said, "Shenyang, Black Mountain Security Bureau."
…
When the war on the Western Front of the Empire attracted the attention of the whole world.
On June 15, 954, shocking news suddenly broke out in Anshan Province. The provincial governor An Laoheng was assassinated and seriously injured. He was sent to the hospital and his life or death was unknown.
It is said that a bomb was installed in the car. When his entourage and guards drove to pick him up, nothing happened. But when he got in the car, the bomb exploded within a few seconds.
This was also the first case of a car bomb being remotely controlled in the world.
