Chapter 3903: Chapter 3891: Tattling
Wu Qiang was stunned.
This incident was arranged by him, yet someone found out.
"What are you talking about! I know nothing about it."
"Stop pretending, you know better than anyone whether you did it or not. We have evidence!" Feng Chengrong was unwavering.
"I don’t want to hear this now. I only know that you have no evidence, yet you accuse us of discharging wastewater. This is slander and defamation."
"Slander and defamation?"
Feng Chengrong let out a cold laugh and looked at Lin Yi.
"Lin Yi, show him the evidence."
"Alright."
Lin Yi found the test report on the computer and turned the monitor towards Wu Qiang.
"You may not know, but the water sample collected initially was divided into two portions. One was sent to the local testing center, and we found that the samples were compliant. We suspected your trick, that you might have secretly colluded with them, so another portion was sent to Jing City. This test result shows all twenty-three indicators exceeded limits. So, what do you have to say now?"
Wu Qiang was dumbfounded. He didn’t expect his plan to be seen through.
"Why aren’t you speaking? Are you afraid? The show has just begun."
Then Lin Yi brought up another test result.
"This is from a few days later, our second round of water sampling, and all indicators were compliant. This indicates that you are knowingly violating the law, fixing the samples when someone checks, and discharging wastewater when no one checks. So do you still think our actions are slander and defamation?"
"This..."
"What do you have to say now? Still think we’re slandering and defaming you?"
Lin Yi smiled, "You’re quite interesting. You’re a senior leader, yet you lack common sense? Admit your mistakes and face the consequences. How dare you come to us?"
"Do you think since you’ve won over the testing center, you can rest easy? If we didn’t have backup plans, do you think we would have waited so many days to report this? Take some medicine and clear your head."
Zhou Li, sitting beside him, couldn’t help but laugh.
Lin Yi’s words were relentless when he was reasoning, but despite laughing, Zhou Li gently pulled Lin Yi aside and typed a few words on her phone, quietly placing it in front of him.
Know when to stop.
Zhou Li’s intention was simple; since the objective had been achieved, there was no need to rub salt in the wound.
After all, there was no personal vendetta between the two, and taking it too far wouldn’t benefit Lin Yi.
"Director Feng, I think we should discuss this matter privately. Do you have time tonight? I’ll arrange a dinner for you."
Wu Qiang’s attitude softened, showing that he could bend and stretch.
"No need for dinner. I hope you’re aware of the severity of the issue and resolve it quickly, for the sake of the public."
Seeing that Feng Chengrong wasn’t giving in, Wu Qiang realized there was no further discussion to be had.
"Then I’ll leave first."
Wu Qiang fumbled in his pocket and handed his business card to Wu Chengrong.
"This is my card. Director Feng can contact me anytime, as we don’t want this to blow up either. As for the rectification, we’ll hold a meeting to discuss it and try to resolve this issue soon."
"I hope so."
Feng Chengrong took the card casually, and Wu Qiang turned and left.
As the other party walked away, Feng Chengrong casually threw the card into the trash bin.
"Ignore him; let’s do our job well and uphold the integrity of a journalist."
"Understood."
...
Qin Yuejin sat in his office, tinkering with his computer.
Crack—
Just then, the office door suddenly opened, and Chen Hui quietly slipped in.
Qin Yuejin put down the mouse and motioned for Chen Hui to lock the door.
Chen Hui had just messaged him, wanting to see him, so he waited in the office for her to arrive.
"Is there something you need from me?" Qin Yuejin lit a cigarette and said.
"Uncle, do you know Mao Yi, Zhou Shen, and Xu Qingqing are recording a program here?"
"I know, what’s up?"
"Our team wants to interview them, but they all refuse. Can you help me out?"
"Not accepting interviews?"
Qin Yuejin was a bit surprised, "Entertainment Frontline is all about this. They know each other well enough that it shouldn’t be an issue."
"I think it has something to do with Lin Yi. Every time we went to interview them, we ran into him, and we were refused twice. The most baffling part is, they agreed to an interview with Nearby News."
"What?"
Qin Yuejin was even more confused, "Their styles are completely different. Forcing them together is just nonsense."
"I feel the same, but we indeed got rejected. I want you to help contact them so I can secure an interview and prove myself in the team."
"Alright, I’ll call Zhao Jing. She’s familiar with them and might help out."
"No! Calling her might not work; she has an unusual relationship with Lin Yi. She might not help," Chen Hui said,
"I suspect it was Zhao Jing who arranged for them to accept the Nearby News interview."
Qin Yuejin thought for a moment, "Do you have the three agents’ phone numbers? I’ll give them a call."
"I have them."
Chen Hui took out her phone and found the numbers for the three agents, and Qin Yuejin called each one.
A few minutes later, Qin Yuejin hung up with a grim expression.
Because on the calls, the three agents clearly refused him, giving him no face at all.
"What potion are these people drinking! Do they really think they’re that important?"
Despite his anger, Qin Yuejin felt a bit helpless,
Even though he is a director and a definite mid-level leader, they’re in different systems entirely, and if they don’t give face, there isn’t much he can do.
After all, they have Zhao Jing supporting them, so they don’t need to fear him at all.
"Uncle, couldn’t you settle it with them?"
Qin Yuejin was embarrassed, "They probably signed an exclusive interview agreement, so they can’t accept other interviews."
"But that’s not how things are done. Nearby News covers news programs, and they’re even interviewing celebrities now, what are we supposed to shoot? That’s clearly overstepping."
"They indeed acted improperly. Go back first; I’ll call them for a meeting. They need to know their role and not mess around!"
"I think a meeting is necessary." Chen Hui said seriously:
"Especially that guy Lin Yi, he’s really gone too far. I think he should face serious consequences."
