In the show, Wang Zhao is the lawyer who teaches Ding Hui and Zhu Yixuan. Ding Hui has received a lot of attention as a counterattack character by many netizens because he said, "Even if there is a one in 10,000 chance, I am willing to give it a try." As Ding Hui's lawyer, Wang Zhao naturally became the subject mentioned by many people when chatting.
Ding Hui and Zhu Yixuan had to negotiate with another group of lawyers. Ding Hui was late due to a traffic jam, but Wang Zhao calmly waited and scolded his subordinates without using too many words, which won him a wave of fans.
This is really not lawyer Wang Zhao’s show for recording a show. In real life, he is a superior who is loved to death by his colleagues.
Qi Da, who worked as a lawyer and became a partner of JunHe, spoke highly of Wang Zhao. He said: The person who knows me the most and has the deepest influence is lawyer Wang Zhao from the Shanghai office.
Wang Zhao guides young lawyers and insists on teaching step by step, ranging from careful consideration of words and punctuation marks in legal documents to how to fill in the EMS documents for sending legal documents. One time, a customer wrote in reply to his EMS ticket: "You are like an EMS boy!".
This serious attitude has allowed many former colleagues who switched to law practice after leaving JunHe to become his clients. 2
Wang Zhao’s seriousness is related to the fact that he is a Virgo.
Virgo is an invincible perfectionist, also known as the Queen of Faults.
But to become a partner of JunHe Law Firm, you have to rely on your strength.
This Wang Zhao is also a graduate of a prestigious university, with a bachelor's degree in international economic law from Fudan Law Department; later, he studied for a master's degree in comparative studies of foreign economic and legal systems at Fudan University.
In 1993, Wang Zhao obtained his lawyer qualification certificate. In that year, Junhe's Shanghai branch had just been established. The second year after receiving the certificate, Wang Zhao joined the Shanghai branch of JunHe.
At that time, Junhe was still a start-up company with a small scale. I rented an office from a client on Taiyuan Road in Shanghai and shared a conference room with the client, covering an area of ??less than 100 square meters. The current JunHe Shanghai branch is located on the third floor of Taikoo Hui on bustling Nanjing Road. It has an office area of ??more than 7,000 square meters and has more than a dozen large and small conference rooms, gyms, and libraries. It is the largest law firm in Shanghai and even the country. Beautiful and one of the largest single law firms.
When JunHe Shanghai branch was first established in 1993, due to unclear regulations on hiring lawyers from foreign law firms in Shanghai, JunHe Shanghai only had one legal license that could be used, and the owner of this license was named His name is Pan Yuexin.
To access industrial and commercial information, you must have a lawyer's license. At that time, documents could only be copied and excerpted, which was a laborious task. Wang Zhao often joked that the happiest thing at that time was to ask Lao Pan to do industrial and commercial investigations. As a young lawyer, I can bossy Lao Pan and assign tasks, asking him to investigate this and that.
From a young lawyer to a partner, Wang Zhao has handled many cases, one of which is very typical.
He represented Johnson & Johnson Medical Devices in China’s first antitrust litigation case involving a vertical monopoly agreement. When he started practicing, there was no antitrust law in China and there was no antitrust business. Not to mention the recent monopoly fines imposed by relevant departments on Alibaba and SF Express.
This case took three years. During the processing of this case, Wang Zhao met many experts and scholars and developed a certain interest. After that, JunHe hoped that employees could develop their own expertise, so Wang Zhao chose antitrust business as one of his career directions.
Wang Zhao is now the boss of JunHe’s dispute resolution team and is known as the “King of JunHe Litigation”. 3
No matter how highly a lawyer’s abilities are exalted by his colleagues in a law firm, it is only for his own entertainment.
Wang Zhao’s title of “King of Junhe Litigation” is really not just something that comes from mere speculation.
In May 2018, the Shanghai International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission, also known as the Shanghai International Arbitration Center, reviewed and approved a "Roster of Arbitrators" at the second meeting of the third commission. Junhe has 8 were selected, and Wang Zhao was one of them.
On February 20, 2020, "Asian Law Journal" announced the list of winners of the "Top 15 Litigation Lawyers in China" in 2020, and Wang Zhao is one of these 15 people.
To stand out from thousands of lawyers across the country and make the list of 15, you still have to work hard!

To do this job as a lawyer, you must have a good family, right?
As for Wang Zhao’s parents, their parenting philosophy when he was in college was “Learn mathematics, physics and chemistry, and you won’t be afraid of traveling around the world.” For no other reason than because Wang Zhao's father was a science and engineering college student in the 1950s and 1960s, he certainly hoped that his son could inherit his father's legacy.
But Wang Zhao liked liberal arts majors such as politics and history at that time, and was not interested in mathematics, physics and chemistry. Wang Zhao's parents believe that even if their son wants to major in liberal arts, he must choose among economics majors.
