On May 22, Wen Xinya sued Changjiang Newspaper and dozens of newspapers and magazines for infringing her reputation rights with seriously insulting and false statements.
Wen Xinya's defense lawyer is a top lawyer from Chaofan Law Firm. Gu Junlin, Xu Chenyu and Zhou Tianyu all appeared in court as witnesses. Mr. Mo and Mr. Wen attended as relatives and friends.
During the debate, Wen Xinya's lawyer first pointed out the insulting words used against Wen Xinya by Changjiang and dozens of newspapers and magazines, and then pointed out those seriously false and malicious slanderous remarks. He presented a series of physical examination reports on Wen Xinya before she was taken back to the Wen family. The reports showed that Wen Xinya was in good health and had never taken any aphrodisiac drugs. There was also a survey conducted by the Extraordinary Law Firm on Wen Xinya's life outside for fifteen years. The survey showed that although Wen Xinya was hanging around the streets, she did not behave as recklessly as described in newspapers and magazines.
In addition, Wen Xinya's lawyer made a series of logical and emotional remarks, pointing out that Wen Xinya is still a minor and her actions cannot be used as a basis for media bombardment and insults, which moved everyone present.
The judge and the jury studied and discussed the evidence submitted by Wen Xinyafang's lawyer. The judge asked the defendant to produce new evidence to prove that the statements in newspapers and magazines were not groundless. Naturally, the defendant could not produce any new evidence.
"In this judgment, the plaintiff Wen Xinya filed a lawsuit against Changjiang Newspaper and dozens of newspapers and magazines for publishing serious insulting and false statements that infringed her reputation. Since the defendant was unable to produce new evidence, this court finally ruled that the plaintiff won the case."
"In accordance with Articles 120 and 134 of the General Principles of the Civil Law of Z, this court orders the defendant to stop infringing on the plaintiff's right to reputation, restore his reputation and eliminate its impact, which is subject to review by this court."
"The plaintiff's lawyer proposed that Changjiang Newspaper and dozens of newspapers and magazines publish serious insulting and false statements to infringe upon his reputation, and demanded compensation of 5 million yuan for the property. He also demanded compensation of 5 million yuan for the damage to the plaintiff's reputation and the mental suffering suffered by the victim. This court ruled that the compensation was established and the defendant must pay the compensation within three months. The recovery of the compensation will be carried out jointly by this court and the plaintiff's Tuotuo Law Firm."
The jury distributed the details of the compensation to Changjiang Newspaper and dozens of newspapers and magazines.
After leaving the court, Wen Xinya first hugged and shook hands with the lawyer from Chaofan Law Firm. She had not expected that the lawyer from Chaofan Law Firm would be so sharp. People say that law is nothing more than human feelings, and he played the emotional card to the fullest, presenting her minor status and the painful reactions of people from all walks of life to the judge and jury in full, so she received such a huge amount of compensation.
Old Master Wen had not expected that she would handle this matter so perfectly even though he had not intervened. "Good! Good! Good! Xinya, you really did not let Grandpa down."
Afterwards, Wen Xinya left the court with Grandpa Mo and Grandpa Wen. The reporters waiting outside rushed in like a tide, surrounding Wen Xinya and her group, with their flash lights flashing non-stop.
"Ms. Wen, could you please share your thoughts on this scandal?"
Wen Xinya stood quietly in the crowd. Although she was young, she had an awe-inspiring and inviolable attitude. She glanced at the reporters around her. Her eyes were like stars in the sky, emitting a dazzling light, but cold and piercing: "If others do not offend me, I will not offend others. If someone offends me, I will pay them back a hundredfold. This is my principle of doing things."
Such arrogant words made the media excited: "Ms. Wen, this scandal involves the old things of your father Wen Haowen and stepmother Ning Shuqian. What do you think about this?"
"It's not for me, as a daughter, to comment on things that happened in my past life."
"Ms. Wen, you are still wearing Xu Chenyu's earrings on your ears. What is your relationship with Xu Chenyu?"
Wen Xinya's face turned cold, and her eyes were filled with frightening coldness, like frost and ice, shooting at the reporter who asked the question: "Which magazine are you from?"
"I... I'm a reporter from Daily Magazine..." The reporter was frightened by Wen Xinya's gaze and trembled all over. He was intimidated by her aura and stammered the name of the magazine.
"Listen carefully, I only wear the earrings Xu Chenyu gave me because we are very good friends. That's right... You are old and even your memories are fuzzy. How can you understand the emotional world of minors nowadays?"
Her adjusted and joking tone made many people present laugh, and the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed. The reporter from the daily magazine blushed because of Wen Xinya's words. He was obviously only 35 years old, just 35 years old.
Wen Xinya said solemnly, "I don't want anyone to use Xu Chenyu to maliciously hype my news. Just as my grandfather said, media workers have the social responsibility of spreading culture and news, and passing on positive energy to the public, rather than using their work to seek personal gain based on hearsay."
Everyone is a smart person. Wen Xinya's scandal because of Xu Chenyu has just ended, and she is at the height of her fame. No one dares to touch her lightly, and they all change the subject.
"Ms. Wen, you have been living away from home for fifteen years. After you returned to the Wen family, the Wen family did not make any announcement to the outside world. Instead, you moved to live with your grandfather, Mr. Mo. Why is that?"
The Wen family never showed up in this scandal from beginning to end, so it's no wonder that everyone has some speculations.
Wen Xinya was about to answer when Old Man Wen said in a deep voice, "Xinya is the only blood of the Wen family and the heir of the Wen family. This is beyond doubt. As for why I didn't make any announcement before, it's because I plan to hold a return introduction banquet for Xinya on the 28th of next month to formally introduce her to the media and the public. I didn't make it public before that because she just returned to the Wen family and needs a period of adaptation. I don't want her to have too much pressure because of the attention from the outside world. Please don't make too many speculations about this."
Mr. Wen is the helmsman of the Wen family, so his words are naturally authoritative. For a moment, the reporters were outraged and their flash cameras kept shooting.
Wen Xinya's lips curled up into a distant smile, but it quickly disappeared: "The reason why I moved to the Mo family is, on the one hand, because my grandfather now has only me as his only relative, and I want to fulfill my filial piety for my deceased mother. On the other hand, because I was living away from home before and missed my studies, I want to learn more from my grandfather, so as to match the title of the eldest daughter of the Wen family."
Old Master Wen looked at Wen Xinya who was surrounded by the crowd of reporters. Her every move was dignified and her every word was well-spoken without any mistakes. She... was better than he had imagined.
