Chapter 373: Old Tang No Longer Wants to Say Anything_3
Taking advantage of the gap while the other person was cursing, Li Zhongda quickly defended himself.
"Not making things up? Why did you say the company didn't give them bonuses? Why did you say Su Yeping was falsifying things? Were you kicked in the head by a donkey?"
Gao Wentang was really anxious now, even mixing in some curse words from his hometown dialect. If he could, he'd even want to beat Li Zhongda up!
"Mr. Gao, this was... this was mentioned in the first trial, and didn't the company also say this when they fired him before?"
Li Zhongda said again.
"Alright, you think you did nothing wrong, right? Fine, just take a look online for yourself. Anyway, I'm telling you, if I'm going down, don't expect to have a good time!"
After speaking, Gao Wentang directly hung up. He needed to quickly contact whoever he could to see if he could save himself.
Li Zhongda clicked into a platform, curious about what was happening online.
He clicked in and found that out of twenty trending topics, his name occupied two of them!
One said how could someone so incompetent become a vice president, and the other said he got into the game himself and single-handedly brought down the entire company leadership...
Wait, I... I got into the game myself?
Ever since the Wen Weilin incident, netizens would label such situations as "getting into the game themselves."
After watching for a while, Li Zhongda felt a cold sweat all over his body, thinking to himself that he merely filed a lawsuit, and it seemed as if he had pierced the heavens!
All the comments he could see online were criticizing them, and the intensity of public opinion had exploded.
He now finally understood why Gao Wentang had that kind of attitude. Given the current situation, an investigation was inevitable!
So, did he, with his own efforts, get the ninth leader sent in?
Li Zhongda returned to the company in a daze, and everyone else in the company kept their distance.
Previously, he was the vice president and was greatly favored by Gao Wentang, but now, even Gao Wentang couldn't protect himself anymore.
Even if other issues were not found, with this kind of momentum, he basically couldn't hold onto his position anymore.
The same old saying goes, there are so many people eyeing your position, just waiting to catch your mistakes. Now that there's such a great opportunity, there's no way they'll let you off!
A leader is only a leader when they're in that position; once they're out, it's uncertain what they are anymore.
Gao Wentang didn't see him, partly because he didn't have time and partly because if he did, he couldn't help but want to take action.
Finally, under public pressure, the authorities released an announcement!
The relevant departments had already launched an investigation into the Lvzhou City Group, and the group's chairman, Gao Wentang, was suspended for investigation!
Before the investigation was even announced, Gao Wentang had already been suspended. None of the many calls he made could save him.
It's just that current regulations for detainment are quite strict, so under this circumstance, he hasn't been directly taken away.
But thinking about leaving the locality is impossible, it's just torture, especially for those who know their situation...
While awaiting the judgment, Old Tang started feeling bored.
He's someone who can't just sit idly, so with nothing else to do, he began another "look back."
At Linle County Station in Lvzhou City, Old Tang slowly got off the bus, recalling a situation that stirred public opinion last year, where a local leader's wife was exposed for taking extended leave to stay in Jingzhou City with their children.
She was suspected of drawing a salary without doing the work... Such situations are common in some small places; some may have never seen it and don't know it, but it is indeed quite common.
Taking regular leave, not a single cent of the salary missing.
At the time, it even sparked a considerable public opinion, and the county issued a report saying they had started an investigation, but until now, there's been no result.
Anyway, Old Tang searched through all the county's releases and couldn't find any investigation result.
A quick report to say an investigation will happen during a public opinion hit, aiming to quell the storm, and once public attention shifts, it vanishes into thin air.
This isn't right. As a professional agitator, since Old Tang knows about it, he definitely needs to ask questions.
Soon, Old Tang, carrying his briefcase, arrived at the department that issued the report back then, which is also the unit where that leader's wife worked.
After all, it's better than doing nothing.
