Chapter 1297 The Results of the Discussion
"Commander, please rest assured, I will handle this matter quickly!" Wei Yi said with a smile.
"I'll wait for your news!" Seeing Wei Yi's confident demeanor, the commander could only trust that he would handle the matter well.
After the commander left, Wei Yi's face was somewhat gloomy. Clearly, he was not in a good mood as he appeared. However, this was understandable; anyone would be in a bad mood.
I thought it was just an ordinary case, but I didn't expect that the reporters from Mingzhu had no bottom line at all. Didn't they do their research before reporting?
Actually, Wei Yi misunderstood Mingzhu's reporters. There were many reporters taking photos at the time, after all, the case happened in a bustling area like Tsim Sha Tsui, and many reporters rushed to the scene and took pictures.
However, after seeing that even Hung Hing's Tang Jun had to be careful around this person, the editor-in-chief of the big newspaper wisely chose to abandon the story. After all, there are so many stories every day, it's not necessary to make this the headline.
But no one expected that there would actually be a stubborn newspaper that would dare to use Hung Hing as a raft, but they would also have to bear the consequences.
"boom!"
A series of smashing sounds were heard as the doors of the Mingzhu Morning Post newspaper office were violently broken open. A large group of thugs carrying sticks stormed in, violently destroying everything in sight and breaking the arms and legs of anyone they encountered, regardless of gender.
When the newspaper's editor-in-chief heard the commotion and ran out, the entire newspaper office had been smashed to pieces. In the nearly 200-square-meter office, not a single item was intact, and not a single newspaper employee could be seen standing.
"Who are you people?" the editor-in-chief asked loudly, pointing at the leader with trembling fingers.
"Are you the editor-in-chief?" Seeing the man walking out of the editor-in-chief's office, Chen Haonan walked over and grabbed the editor-in-chief's hair. However, he almost fell flat on his face when he pulled hard. When he looked back, he saw that the editor-in-chief was bald, and he was holding a wig in his hand.
The henchmen around him, looking like they wanted to laugh but were too embarrassed to, made Chan Ho-nam blush and walk back over. He then swung the baseball bat at the editor-in-chief's knee.
"Ah! My leg!" The editor-in-chief collapsed to the ground, clutching his thigh and wailing in pain. He hadn't expected these people to be so ruthless. Especially after he fell, he saw many other newspaper employees lying under the desk, just like him, clutching their arms or legs. He knew that this medical bill might bankrupt the boss.
"You've got some nerve, haven't you? You actually dared to spread gossip about our Hung Hing? Do you think we Hung Hing wouldn't dare to touch you?" Chan Ho-nam squatted on the ground, slapping the editor-in-chief's cheek with his hand, and asked through gritted teeth.
"You don't need to be so arrogant. I've already called the police! They'll be here soon! You not only injured someone today but also vandalized the newspaper office. You'll be going to jail!" It has to be said that anyone who can publish Tang Jun bowing his head as the front page of a newspaper must be incredibly stubborn.
In the current situation, they are still threatening the gang members in front of them. I don't know if this editor-in-chief is stupid, thinks the police in Mingzhu are powerful, or thinks the gangs in Mingzhu are all doing charity.
"Oh ho, you actually called the police? That's a good choice, but you should think carefully. Today is just the first time. We'll be back tomorrow! Today is just to say hello. My name is Chan Ho-nam. If your newspaper can still stay afloat, I, Chan Ho-nam, will jump off Victoria Peak!" Chan Ho-nam said with a smile.
"Let's go!" Chan Ho-nam stood up and called out, then walked out of the newspaper office first. After all, it would be foolish to be cornered by the police here.
As a large group of thugs filed out, the newspaper staff finally stood up. However, most of them rushed to call an ambulance. They had broken arms or legs, and if the bones weren't set in time, the long-term effects could ruin their lives.
"Ring ring!" A phone rang abruptly, and the editor-in-chief's expression changed because it was his phone ringing. Especially after he saw the caller ID of his boss, despite the pain, the editor-in-chief felt like he had found a savior.
"Hello? Boss! Our newspaper office has been vandalized by Hung Hing gang! All our employees have been injured! You have to do us justice!" The editor-in-chief immediately started complaining, tears streaming down his face, after answering the phone.
"Wang Jianren! Who gave you the right to put the Hung Hing Hall Master on the front page?" A roar came from the other end of the phone. The editor-in-chief was sure that if it weren't for the phone, he could see his boss's furious reaction.
“Boss, Mingzhu is a society governed by the rule of law. Since we have taken photos, why can’t we report it? Besides, you are a well-known tycoon in Mingzhu! What’s there to be afraid of with a mere Hung Hing triad?” the editor-in-chief retorted, still somewhat unconvinced.
"Are you an idiot? Just because Mingzhu has freedom of speech and the rule of law, you dare to report everything? Let me tell you, all the losses today are your fault. Either you make up for the newspaper's losses and get out of here, or I'll send you to Stanley and use the law to make you pay for the losses! You decide what to do!" After saying that, the person on the other end of the phone hung up.
The editor-in-chief, stunned, and a group of employees staring at him like he was their enemy were left with the leftovers.
The newspaper owner, meanwhile, was making endless phone calls; he too had just seen the report in his own paper. But the person in the photo evoked not joy in him, but fear!
It wasn't Tang Jun from Hung Hing that frightened him, but rather the person opposite Tang Jun that instilled fear in him. As someone who had been fortunate enough to visit the mainland, how could he not know who the police chief of Dongguang Province was?
In particular, he also knew which powerful figure who could influence the political situation of the country was standing behind this young director.
In Western cultural circles, money can buy power, but in the East, especially in East Asia, people from all countries share a consensus: money alone is useless; you must have power!
Back then, Lei Luo was rich, wasn't he? But what happened when faced with the power that wanted to take action against him? He still only had one option left: to run away. Don't tell him that Mingzhu is special; that's just something you can say to fool a child.
An ordinary official might not be someone the boss cares about this much, but at Zhao Cheng's level, it would be foolish for him not to care!
So right now, all he wanted was to get rid of the newspaper as quickly as possible, and then immediately find that person in Mingzhu, whose whereabouts were unknown, and apologize to them. This was the first time he had felt such a strong urge to kill.
