The punishnt decision in his hands had not even ward up when the court summons arrived, as if deliberately tid to make Old Guo feel they had coordinated their actions.
And since when did the Consur Association of Handong Province beco so eager to protect consurs?
The Consur Association pursuing public interest litigation seed more common in economically developed areas like Magic City and Guang Province. There had been public interest litigations in Handong Province before, but those were initiated by the Procuratorate.
One brought by the Consur Association... he had never seen before...
So who exactly conducted this investigation, the Consur Association? When did they beco so abnormal!
Yet, as he looked through the indictnt, Guo Qifeng spotted a sowhat familiar na.
"An intern lawyer nad Tang Fangjing? Who's that..."
As he was pondering, his secretary reminded him in a low voice, "President Guo, this Tang Fangjing is the sa person who sued our company over false...do you rember now?"
With a gesture from his secretary, Guo Qifeng finally rembered. A little while ago, a young man acted as if struck by a serious illness over such a trivial matter, dragging it to court, and wasn't it rather unpleasant later on?
But now that person had actually beco a lawyer for the association... although an intern lawyer.
Guo Qifeng wondered if his supervising lawyer had a particularly strong background... He was used to thinking this way; encountering any problem, he'd consider the background first.
Just then, a staff mber from the Market Supervision Departnt spoke up: "Alright, you better sign off on this quickly because I need to get back. Also, there's sothing else I need to tell you."
"The whole thing was kicked off by a real-na report, and all the evidence of false advertising was collected by the whistleblower. The whistleblower's na is Tang Fangjing. He said you should recognize his na."
Normally, the identity of a whistleblower is definitely confidential, but this case is special.
The whistleblower specifically asked for his na to be disclosed and made clear that the evidence was collected by him.
Although it's unclear what he was thinking, after much persuasion by the departnt, he still insisted on his view, so they dropped the matter.
Since the interests at stake were already made clear, they had to respect his wishes.
For Tang Fangjing, it was essential to let the other party know it was his doing, or else the completion of his tasks would not improve.
Besides, he still planned to release a video. The reason he hadn't done so yet was to avoid influencing the court's judgnt through public opinion. If soone took issue with that and filed a report, he could very well say goodbye to his legal career.
Such behavior was actually sowhat risky, and the tasks he would need to undertake in the future were bound to be even more dangerous.
One didn't need to think too hard to realize that the tasks given by the system were definitely not easy ones... Therefore, he needed to make a na for himself online.
Of course, our society is quite safe. It's not like in Arica where one might end up 'committing suicide' with eight shots to the back... It's just a precaution, that's all...
In front of the staff mber, Guo Qifeng was completely dumbfounded; the only thing left in his mind was the na: Tang Fangjing.
"Wait, he gathered all this evidence? What's he after, does he have so sort of issue? All for that little bit of attorney's fees?"
"Let's not even ntion that he's just an intern lawyer, even if he were a fully-fledged lawyer, that's not a lot of money. Is it worth risking his life like this? Really, I'm *** dumbfounded, does he really need to go to such lengths?"
Although Guo Qifeng was usually hot-tempered, he would never erupt like this in such settings.
But now, the impact of this news was simply too great!
He had suspected the Market Supervision Departnt, the Consur Association, but never Tang Fangjing, or rather, he had long forgotten this na.
What had he done at that ti? Wasn't it just expressing his discomfort after diation by saying a few harsh words? Doesn't everyone make threats sotis? Was it worth it for him to go to these lengths to target ?
Oh no, wrong. Damn it, he's disrupted the entire real estate brokerage industry in Jingzhou, twenty-eight companies, so of which are subsidiary branches of listed companies; now they all have to be rectified...
The young staff mber from the Market Supervision didn't respond at all. Inside the Bureau, the unanimous opinion about Old Tang was that he was a true idealist.
In front of such a person, talking about "cost" or "price" was absolutely futile.
Anyone put in that situation would think the sa, pay such a high price just for one's own happiness? Who would believe that!
After confirming with the photographer next to him that he had captured everything, he left with the signed receipt in hand. The effect of this episode was really too good, it was definitely going to draw a crowd once released.
Next to him, a young man from the Jingzhou court likewise spoke up, "Hurry up and sign, I've got other things to do."
Guo Qifeng had no choice. Even if he refused to sign, the court would proceed with the hearing as planned.
Signing with a feeling as if he'd been screwed over, he waited for the court staff to leave before he started smashing things.
He just couldn't hold back, it would have been one thing if it was the market regulator or consur association, but he never expected it to be this person who stirred up trouble...
At the sa ti, having received a call, Manager Wang and Qi Guang made their way to the head office.
"Weird, Manager, why did Boss Guo call us in today?" Qi Guang asked with a puzzled face.
Manager Wang shook his head, "Who knows, just be careful what you say later, and by the way, I went to a newly opened show apartnt today and took so videos and photos, make sure to use them."
Those really nice photos ca from seizing opportunities like this, the decor of a new apartnt was bound to be good.
Qi Guang next to him nodded, no one thought there was anything wrong with this, it's not like they were deliberately deceiving people, the buyers would still get apartnts, not like there weren't any apartnts at all.
The two entered the boss's office with confusion, and imdiately heard a voice, "Old Wang, do you rember that guy nad Tang Fangjing who sued us, the one we went to diate with a while ago?"
Manager Wang across from him nodded, "Of course, I rember that guy seed a bit crazy."
Pausing for a mont and seeing Guo Qifeng was waiting, Manager Wang continued, "Back then I rember he accused us of deceiving people, and you know, that's how it is these days."
"Caught up in the mont, I said if he was capable, he should make all Jingzhou brokers use real listings..."
Old Wang hadn't finished speaking when he was interrupted, Guo Qifeng glared and said, "So you did say that, huh? What are you doing bringing up such words without any thinking, are you insane?"
As he said this, he threw over a copy of a penalty decision and a copy of the complaint, "Just look at this for yourself!"
"That Tang guy went through the housing listings of the entire Jingzhou City one by one and then with this evidence went on to file complaints and lawsuits. Now the whole interdiary industry of Jingzhou is going to be reorganized!"
What? Manager Wang was stunned, but quickly said, "No way, Boss Guo, just because of that thing I said, he took such action? That's impossible, who would do such a thing..."
"Then tell , besides that reason, what could it be? Huh, tell !"
Manager Wang, verbally beaten down and covered in sha, dared not speak, and Qi Guang on the side was scolded too, though not as much.
Guo Qifeng also knew that Manager Wang was in his thirties, with both elders and children to care for, and wouldn't dare quit on a whim, so after the scolding, it was over.
However, after his outburst, Guo started to worry, because now it really did seem like there was no other reason.
If word got out, what would the other "colleagues" in Jingzhou do? He didn't dare to think about it...
......
In Yuefu Residential Complex, Tang Fangjing looked at the woman in front of him and said, "Auntie Liu, let's sign the contract then. Once the bank disbursent is through, you can give the keys."
The original owner of apartnt 1601 in building 15 of Yuefu Residential Complex, Liu Minjun, upon hearing this said, "Little Tang, I've said everything I need to say, and you know the situation, so I won't say any more."
Tang Fangjing nodded without a word. In his eyes, except for life, nothing else was a problem.
If only this could trigger a mission or sothing... that would be even better...
