Yoon Jiangen, a mediaman from Jizhou, is known as "Put-a-cow", and has been ordered to do a trial of two years and three months for writing rights-based articles. Before the second trial, he brought a sentence to Yu Kai in the first instance in the prison: "I want him to defend me. "They never met. Where does this trust come from across the bars?
Decision in iron windows
In summer 2026, Anhui and the county detention centre.
Yoon Jiangen sat in the meeting room opposite the first instance defence lawyer Wang Dawei. He wants to do something with Wang Da-tae.
"Bring me a message for Yu Kai. "..
Wang Dawei is a lawyer at the Beijing law firm and is a first-instance advocate for Yoon Jiangen, together with his colleague Chen Shi Lin.
He listened to this, did not say yes on the spot, did not refuse — he just took it outside.
Yukai, Shandong's lawyer and Yoon Jiangensu never met, and they didn't even mention the word.
When Yoon Jiangen made that decision, he had no phone number on Kai's hand, no tweets, no address.
He only knows that name, read this man's article, knew that he was doing one thing — to make legislative recommendations for the crime of sedition, and advocated its abolition.
And he himself, for that very reason, sat here.
/ / / / / / / / * / / /
In August 2023, Yoon Jiangen was first known to Yu Kai, and read a copy of the Legislative Proposal for the Abolition of the Crime of Scavenging, submitted to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress on behalf of the Shandong Law Offices in Kanqing County, Mahi Yi, Yu Yongyan and Zhang Wen Peng, among others.
In that proposal, Yu Kai raised several cases: the family of Anhui Nang Yujin was found to be in trouble because of the network ' s reactions to the land being demolished and the visit made; The search for a fee for the private bridge in the south of the city of Jilin was a wake-up call. "Attend to Mother" Tang Hui for the charges of "silentness" each of which is a story of a common man "sold" in this case.
YOON Jiangen read it and thought every word was like talking about his case.
Core point written in the proposal by Yu Jiegen and then chewed over and over again
The core point of Yu Kai wrote in his proposal was then chewed repeatedly by Yoon Jiangen.
The first is that the charges are too vague. The words "arbitrary" "aggravated" in article 293 of the Penal Code are not objective criteria. When you're on the ground, it's like you're in the middle of something. In the 75 articles that Yoon Jiangen found in first instance, the court stated that "contribution to a serious disorder in public order" on what basis? It's tens of thousands of readings, over 1,000 retweets. But with a high reading, it's like a breakdown in social order? Yu Kai said, "No, that's not how it works.
Two is easy to turn into "pock." Letters, interviews, web calls, civil disputes — anything can be put in the context of a grotesque process. In his proposal, Yu Kai stated that the crime had been broken down from "rogue crime" in 1979, retaining the background properties, which had led to a blurring of the border between administrative and criminal punishment. YOON Jiangen's interviewer collates materials and writes articles, essentially as a "supposing" and is accused of "false information" -- isn't that what Kai said about "applied in the background"?
Three are criminal offences. Yu Kai argued that the Internet criticism of whether there is a source or whether it is "intellectually false" and whether the visit actually caused a breakdown of the real order should be strictly assessed by specific behaviour. Critics cannot be promoted directly to criminal offences because they are embarrassed and uncomfortable.
Four is a crime of insolence, not the same as being left unattended. The alternative offered by Yu Kai is specific: random beatings are intentional assault, verbal abuse is humiliating, forced robbery is forced to be the result of robbery or deliberate destruction of property, and a mob of people is used to disturb public order; In light cases, the Public Order Administration Punishment Act is followed. The pipe's behavior is still being handled, except for the vague charge of "one pot."
In July 2025, following the resumption of his practice in Kay, a separate Legislative Proposal for the Abolition of the Crime of Scaming was sent to the JJC that same month, continuing to forward the cases of Zhang Wen Peng, Hsu Zongping and Sui-jin of Lanzhou, among others, for the collection of microblogging. For many years, written and systematic advice to the legislature — this is not a statement of hysteria — a lawyer who has thrown a half-life of professional accumulation into a single charge.
Yoon Jiangen finished reading these and made a judgment: This man, he knows my case. This man, dare to tell the truth.
He doesn't need to see Kai himself. A person who is willing to repeat his proposal for a crime of abandonment for strangers deserves to be trusted.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
I've got word.
Yu Kai listened to Wang David's request, did not immediately answer and refused in silence. According to the family and the commission communication, he was unable to accept the court appearance personally for "special reasons".
But he did one thing: a sum of his own competitors recommended Zhang Zhang Zheng.
It's not just a name to throw. The criteria recommended by Yukay are clear: two high-level judicial interpretations of web-related problems, experience in cross-provincial multi-factory cases, willingness to take sensitive cases, ability to cooperate with former first-instance lawyers and willingness to defend themselves free of charge.
Finally, according to communications and public material commissioned, the second trial was defended by Zhang Jiangen and Chen Shi Lin as co-counsel.
On 10 September 2026, the Saddle Mount Central Court sitting in second instance with the Second Court of the District Court. The five cards Zhang Zhang Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zian Zheng Zhu Zheng Zhu Zheng Zhu Zhu Zheng Zhu Zhu Zi Zhu Zi Zhu Zi Zhu Zi Zhu Zhu Zhu Zi Zi Zhu Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi Zi
The chain of trust is complete: YOON Jiangen trusts Kai's professional judgment, and Zhang Zhengen trusts Zhang Zhengen's ability to speak out in court.

iv. Trust has not been lost since maintenance
According to various retransmitted accounts, in mid-September 2026, the second instance decision rejected the appeal and remained for two years and three months.
For YOON Jiangen, this is a heavy result. But it's not a failure with the subject of "Trust of Strangers".
Those statements made by Zhang Zhang Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zheng Zhu Zheng Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhang Zhang Zhang Zhang Zhang Zhang Zhang Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhang Zhang Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Zhu Yukay was unable to come in person, but the lawyer he recommended did fight the battle. He himself criticized the crime of fermentation and was read, transmitted and discussed by more people because of the fermentation of the Yoon Jiangen case.
A person detained from the media, who was separated from the bars, placed his hopes on a lawyer who had never met. The lawyer failed to come in person, but he recommended another lawyer and, together with Mr. Chen Shig Lin, the first trial attorney, Yoon Jiangen, told the story. This transfer of trust has not been in vain.
V. CONCLUDING REMARKS
The most moving image of a society based on the rule of law is not a judge hammering, not a lawyer speaking out, but a stranger, because he read another stranger's article, saying that at the darkest hour of life:
"Bring him a message for me. I want to invite him. "..
They never met. But there's a line between them, called a professional, called a conscience, called "I believe you do."
This line is longer than any sentence.
