2. Practice social responsibility and show the responsibility of The Times

Zhang Dong has a solid foundation of legal theory, has high attainments in the professional fields of civil commerce, finance and securities, and has a high academic authority in the legal field and even the legal field in our country. In 1993, Henan Provincial Trade Corporation in Guangzhou (referred to as the company) to find Zhang Dong, request agent and Henan Wenxian fourth chemical factory (referred to as Wenxian Sihua) purchase bulldozer agreement dispute case, Zhang Dong after careful analysis, found that Luoyang Yituo Siyou Industrial Corporation comprehensive repair factory should be listed as the third party in the case, although the third party has no contract relationship with the company in Guangzhou, However, he maliciously colluded with the four Huatas of Wenxian County to give the fake bulldozer to Huiguang Company, so the third party should bear certain responsibility in this dispute. In the end, the court ruled that the agreement was invalid, and 816,000 yuan and 12,000 yuan of interest were recovered, and Zhang Dong used creative thinking to win the lawsuit and execution. In 1994, in the tide of nutria farming sweeping the country, 146 people cheated nutria farmers found Zhang Dong, and asked for an agent to file a compensation lawsuit, which led to the "Central Plain No. 1" Nutria Group lawsuit, this case through the unremitting efforts of Zhang Dong and Jin Yan lawyers, not only won the lawsuit, but also for the deceived farmers to get justice. In 1994, acting on behalf of China Great Wall Aluminum sued Jiaozuo City Dry House labor service company for default of payment, and found that the registered capital of the labor service company established by Dry house was not in place, Jiefang Credit Cooperative issued a false certificate of working capital, and the accounting firm issued a false capital verification report. According to the law, Jiaozuo City Dry House, Jiefang Credit Cooperative and accounting firm were added as co-defendants. Share responsibility. Zhang Dong was able to find out in time that there were people who indirectly harmed the interests of the plaintiff and listed them as co-defendants according to the specific circumstances, which laid a good foundation for the successful operation of economic cases at that time. In 1994, Zhang Dong led Jin Yan to accept the entrusts of the Mengxian Branch of the People's Construction Bank of China (referred to as Mengxian Construction Bank), one of the creditors in a bankruptcy case, which had 788 creditors, the largest number of creditors in the country at that time. The first instance ruling of the bankruptcy of the enterprise, mortgage to Mengxian Construction bank of machinery and equipment are all counted in the bankruptcy property, because the first instance ruling is not appealed to the ruling, Zhang Dong made a petition overnight to the Jiaozuo City People's Procuratorate, the procuratorate to the Jiaozuo City Intermediate People's Court lodged a protest and submitted to the municipal People's Congress. Under the supervision of the Standing Committee of the Jiaozuo Municipal People's Congress and the guidance of the Municipal People's Court, the mortgage of three loans of Mengxian CCB was finally realized, which protected the legitimate rights and interests of Mengxian CCB and recovered the legitimate rights and interests of more than 2 million yuan. The discussion on the effectiveness of the mortgage in the case is of great practical significance in judicial practice.

In 2005, Zhang Dong successfully handled the loan guarantee dispute between Henan Tire Group Co., Ltd. and China Cinda Asset Management Company, saving the economic loss of more than 50 million yuan for Henan Tire Group Company. The case is in the Supreme People's Court made a final judgment, changed the Henan Tire Group company to repay Xinda Zhengzhou Office of the principal and interest of a total of more than 70 million yuan, Zhang Dong firmly believe that the final judgment of the case is wrong, so on behalf of Henan Tire Group company to the Supreme Court to apply for a retrial. In the face of unprecedented difficulties, he did not retreat at all, adhered to the truth, firmly believed that the Supreme Court's judgment on the case was indeed a wrong judgment, and reflected the wrong judgment to the Supreme Court through various channels. With his unremitting efforts, the Supreme Court finally filed a case for retrial. Since the Supreme Court found that the final judgment of the case was indeed wrong during the retrial, it presided over the mediation between the tire Group Company and the Zhengzhou Office of Cinda Company, and finally issued a civil mediation statement on December 19, 2005, which essentially overturned the judgment issued by the Supreme People's Court itself, and the tire Group company paid 19 million yuan to the Zhengzhou Office of Cinda Company and closed the case. The successful handling of the case not only saved more than 50 million yuan of economic losses for Henan Tire Group Company, but also became the first case in which a civil judgment of the Supreme People's Court was substantially overturned since the founding of the People's Republic of China. With Zhang Dong's strategy and unremitting efforts, the case eventually became a classic in the classic case. In the same year, he also handled the loan guarantee dispute between Henan Tire Group Co., Ltd. and Jiaozuo Branch of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China through non-litigation, which avoided a huge economic loss of 190 million yuan for Henan Tire Group.

Zhang Dong has the overall situation of development in mind and actively solves problems for the government. In 2007, he represented the China Cinda Asset Management Company in Zheng office v. Jiaozuo City People's government arrears dispute case, which made a case protested by the Supreme People's Procuratorate and retried by the Provincial High Court to correct the debt of the municipal government to bear more than 30 million yuan, and finally successfully settled the case through mediation, saving the economic loss of more than 26 million yuan for the municipal government.

Lawyer Zhang Dong has handled a number of difficult criminal cases, safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the defendants, and defending the dignity of the law. In nine of the criminal cases in which he participated, the defendants were acquitted, and in three cases where death sentences were imposed in the first instance, the sentences were commuted in the second instance.

Take the lead in developing a number of new businesses, walking in the forefront of the country. After the state proposed to build a socialist legal system country, Zhang Dong was keenly aware that the lawyer career ushered in a rare opportunity for development and faced with a wide range of prospects. He updated his ideas in a timely manner, unified his thinking, and established the working idea of "adapting to the situation, seizing the opportunity, breaking through the single litigation business model, developing to the non-litigation field, directly participating in every link of economic operation, and serving the market economy". And actively adjust the force, so that lawyers work to penetrate into various fields. Zhang Dong innovative ideas, keen vision, dare to boldly explore new business.

In 2002, he guided the lawyer to get involved in the BOT investment business and the franchise business of urban public utilities. For example, Jiaozuo Municipal People's Government and Shenzhen Water (Group) Co., Ltd. cooperate in the operation of Jiaozuo city water supply project, and have successively participated in a number of public utility franchise projects in the province, so that our province's public utility reform work in the forefront of the country.

In 2002, I began to undertake several foreign-related business, including investment business negotiation of China City Gas Co., Ltd. in Jiaozuo and commercial procurement legal affairs of listed company Zhongfu Industry, especially the latter. He guided the lawyers to successfully complete the legal services for the Chinese-English contract modification, business negotiation and signing of the 70-million-yuan foreign-related procurement contracts between the listed company Zhongfu Industry and seven countries including the United States, Canada, Germany, Belgium and Switzerland, effectively safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the Chinese side. In 2007, there were four defendants, including two natural persons and two legal persons, in the foreign-related trade secret infringement lawsuit entrusted by Zhang Dong's consulting agency. The plaintiff was Serenex (which had been acquired by Pfizer of the United States). After careful investigation and judgment, Zhang Dong found that there was no civil cooperation between China and the United States, so he decided to cooperate with an American law firm. Leveraging the role of the Department of Justice and the Department of Security averted more than $100 million in losses for businesses. In 2007, he presided over the drafting and planning of the investment agreement between four Chinese private enterprise groups and the Liberian government, which created a precedent in the world for transnational franchising of special economic zones by enterprises.
