Xiaomi Heavy Industry, its first entrepreneurial venture!

Chapter 183 Everyone Gets a Lawyer's Letter! (Third Update!)
The reporters, somewhat embarrassed by their attempt to sneak away, quickly turned and shouted to Wang Xiaowu, who was demonstrating the cause of the fire.
"Captain Wang, can you take legal responsibility for what you said?"

After he said that, reporters shoved their microphones in front of Wang Xiaowu's mouth, and their photographers also pointed their lenses at him.

Looking at those eager gazes, Wang Xiaowu sighed inexplicably.

This statement carries significant weight.

If he were to answer in accordance with that statement, it would fall into the hands of someone with ulterior motives. That one sentence could be turned into an article of thousands of words, along with a few photos, and Wang Xiaowu would immediately be portrayed as a corrupt official.

This news will spread throughout the country tomorrow morning.

It will spread all over the world next week.

Wang Xiaowu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then suddenly opened them again. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Yuanheng walked past him, waved the documents in his hand, and pointed behind him.

Behind him stood two staff members dressed in joint quality inspection uniforms, holding two small cameras.

These two people were filming Wang Xiaowu and Lin Yuanheng, as well as the reporter blocking their way, from two different angles on the left and right.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have full surveillance footage here, as well as an informed consent form for the appraisal signed by Mr. Murata Ichiro."

"In addition to the footage we filmed ourselves, there is also footage you filmed yourselves."

"This refrigerator has been managed by Mr. Ichiro Murata from the beginning, and we have only just officially taken over from him."

"After taking over, we disassembled the refrigerator under the supervision of the cameras and found out the problem."

"Regarding legal responsibility, as an appraisal and consulting company, we will issue our own appraisal report."

"Captain Wang was only explaining the reasons on site out of a sense of responsibility to you."

“Now, I think we should hand the site over to the people at Xiaomi Heavy Industry.”

"Let's hear what the people from Xiaomi Heavy Industry have to say!"

After speaking, Lin Yuanheng smiled at the reporters present, then turned and pointed to the resistor in Wang Xiaowu's hand:
"You need to keep these two pieces of evidence safe."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaowu gave Lin Yuanheng a grateful look, then put the two resistors in his hand into a file bag and placed it next to the motherboard.

These two pieces of evidence are extremely important.

We can't lose it.

Lin Yuanheng's words finally reminded the reporters and Murata Ichiro present that this was Xiaomi Heavy Industries, and that not long ago, there was a legal representative who had been playing games with them.

They are Tai Chi.

I wasn't paying much attention earlier because I was filming the disassembly of the refrigerator, but now I have to face that guy again.

When the reporters finally came to their senses, they suddenly realized that Li Jiewei had somehow appeared beside them.

He was holding a new document in his hand. Noticing that everyone was looking at him, he looked up and gave them a friendly smile.

Afterwards, Li Jiewei handed the new documents to Murata Ichiro and others:
"Mr. Ichiro Murata, this is your lawyer's letter. Please keep it safe."

"Reporter Li, this is your lawyer's letter. Please keep it safe."

"Ms. Yang Tiantian, this is your lawyer's letter. Please keep it safe."

"Don't be afraid, everyone will get a share!"

Li Yang looked at the lawyer's letter handed to him, and the group of reporters didn't know whether to accept it or not.

As those who control public opinion, most journalists have a bit of an intellectual complex, thinking of themselves as pine trees on Mount Hua, independent of the world.

Li Yang is also one of them.

Accepting this lawyer's letter is tantamount to bowing down to the person in front of you.

This means you have to swallow the poop you produced a couple of days ago.

This is absolutely unacceptable!

How can the pine trees of Mount Hua bow their heads?

Clutching the lawyer's letter, Li Yang stepped forward, pushed through the crowd, and chose to confront Li Jiewei directly.

His gaze lingered on the front door for a moment, then he waved the lawyer's letter in his hand:
"Attorney Li, as journalists, don't we have the right to report on these events?"

"If everyone did what you do, how would ordinary people be able to raise their voices?"

"Even if there is a mistake, it's not a big one. Is it necessary to make a big deal out of it?"

"Do you have any compassion at all?"

After sending the lawyer's letter, Li Jiewei stood by and waited, waiting for someone to take the initiative to admit their mistake and plead guilty.

But to his utter surprise, after waiting for so long, instead of someone taking the initiative to admit their mistake, he was met with accusations.

What does it mean to "exaggerate the importance of tnd"?

What does it mean to be heartless?

Scratching his head, Li Jiewei gave a knowing smile, then raised his right index finger and gently waved it:
"Reporter Li, please don't change the subject. Before you talk about reporting, you should show your press card first."

"Moreover, as an ordinary person, I cannot deprive you of your right to report the news."

"But as an official journalist trained by the official media, you should possess the most basic qualities of a journalist, which is to investigate the authenticity of the news, follow up on the news, and then report on it."

"Instead of the kind of writing you do on Sina Weibo, which is just pointless whining, piling up fancy words, and then pasting in a few photos to perfectly match your imagination."

“You are using the wrong language and conditionally misleading others. This is not reporting; this is framing someone.”

Li Jiewei emphasized the words "framed" or "falsely accused".

Then he looked at Li Yang with a mocking expression and said in a sarcastic tone:
"As for your claim of representing the voice of ordinary people, when you said that ordinary people need your help to speak out, I knew that you looked down on the ordinary people who gave you power."

"You can't just call people ordinary people all the time and then bring them out when you need them."

"As for what you said about it being just a minor mistake, and then saying I have no compassion."

"I can only say you're very good at changing the subject."

"Our sales reached over 100 million yuan before the Lunar New Year, and with the factory expansion after the holiday, sales will be even higher."

"In addition to our own sales, we are also cooperating with the Suzhou Municipal Government to develop brand-new new energy batteries, and we have already achieved success."

"We expect our sales to exceed 10 billion yuan in the second half of the year."

"At this time, you are helping a Japanese person to spread rumors and attack your own country's companies."

Do you think my sales figures will suffer a blow?

"You can't just speak when the situation is in your favor."

"Now I'm giving you two choices. One choice is to apologize in public for a month straight."

"Our second option is to file a lawsuit! Then everyone here can chip in and pay for our losses."

As he spoke, Li Jiewei held up two fingers, first waving them in front of Li Yang, then turning to waving them in front of Murata Ichiro. Seeing this, Li Yang racked his brains, carefully recalling the laws he had read.

Then, something actually came to his mind.

After clarifying his words, he looked at Li Jiewei and shouted, "You have no evidence to prove that your business reputation exceeds 10 billion!"

"Really?" Li Yang's words made Li Jiewei slowly turn his head.

As he replied, he gave Li Yang a sinister smile.

Then, under the watchful eyes of Ichiro Murata, Li Yang, and other reporters, Li Jiewei pointed to a staff member tidying up a workbench not far away and asked with a mocking expression:
"You don't actually think I can't find evidence to convict you, do you?"

“Three testing companies, each with a commission fee of 50 yuan, totaling 150 million yuan.”

"Invoices are available for verification."

"Fire Chief Wang came here voluntarily to promote electrical safety and did not receive any appearance fee."

“In addition to the setup here, we also bought back the products sold to consumers and promised to replace them with new ones for free and provide double the amount of the latest equipment. These losses also exceeded 50 yuan.”

"A direct loss of 200 million yuan, even if it's classified as a direct loss, is enough to give you a hard time."

"Furthermore, given that your public opinion attack was organized and premeditated, do you think Suzhou City will make an example of you at this crucial moment in economic development?"

The word "typical" completely silenced Li Yang.

Others wanted to take over from Li Yang and engage in verbal sparring with Li Jiewei, but when they opened their mouths, they couldn't say anything and could only repeat the same old topics.

"You cannot deny journalists their right to report on events!"

"That's it!"

"Besides, Mr. Murata Ichiro is Japanese, and you don't want to cause an international dispute, do you?"

While Li Jiewei was debating with the group of scholars, Liu Weiqiang had already walked towards the police officers maintaining order.

He approached the policemen, offered each of them a cigarette, lit it for them, and then asked with a smile:
"Officers, you have seen the whole story. Now, may I make my legitimate request?"

The older police officer glanced at the crowd, then turned his gaze back to Liu Yongqiang: "Can I refuse to take the call?"

Liu Yongqiang didn't say anything, he just stared at the policeman.

The two stared at each other for about 10 minutes before the older policeman finally gave in.

He glanced back at his apprentice beside him: "Call the station and ask them to send someone to help."

The young apprentice in the driver's seat took out his phone and made a call to the station. About ten minutes after the call ended, several police cars arrived.

Upon arriving at the scene, they found that there were indeed quite a lot of people. As a last resort, the people who came to provide support had to take out their phones and make calls to request more backup.

Two hours later, at the Hanshan Temple District Public Security Bureau.

When Director Lu Xian saw the large group of people being brought back by the police car, he was so frightened that he couldn't continue chatting. He threw his teacup on the table and rushed out in a hurry.

After figuring out what was going on, he breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go back to continue drinking tea when his phone rang.

He took out his phone, and a name he knew very well was flashing on it. He had saved this name for a long time, but never had the chance to call it.

Secretary Qin Chao

Looking at the name, Lu Xian took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and answered the phone:

"Secretary Qin."

The next moment, Qin Chao's cold, sharp voice came from the phone:
"I was busy just now, and I only have time to call you now."

“I just heard that some legitimate and compliant enterprises in our jurisdiction have been subjected to organized and premeditated malicious defamation by certain individuals during their normal production and operation.”

"They're creating news before the facts are clear, trying to bring our company down with their hands."

"I'll just give you one piece of advice: this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed."

"If we can't even protect our own compliant and legal businesses, how can we talk about developing the economy?"

"Little Lu, don't you think so?"

The cold, stern voice softened at the end. Hearing this, Lu Xian's eyes lit up. Recalling what had just happened, he nodded heavily and said into the phone, "The secretary is right!"

After receiving his reply, the call was abruptly ended by the other end.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Xian slowly straightened his back and put down the teacup he had just picked up.

He straightened his clothes, and the gentle smile on his face turned cold and stern.

Stepping out of the office, he first found the police officers who were out on patrol, quickly watched the video, then walked around the lobby on the first floor, listened to what the reporters had to say, and finally went into the mediation room.

He said a few words to the police officer in charge of mediation, and the officer got up and left, giving him his seat.

After sitting down, Lu Xian first reviewed the notes his colleagues had made, and after organizing his thoughts, he turned to look at the people sitting on either side of him:
"Gentlemen, I am Lu Xian from the branch office. This matter is rather special. I just took a walk around outside and got a full understanding of the situation."

"We know who is right and who is wrong, but in these kinds of cases, we usually try to mediate and handle them in a civil manner."

"But I just looked at the mediation record, and the reporters, represented by Mr. Ichiro Murata, Mr. Li Yang, and Ms. Yang Tiantian, are not willing to accept Xiaomi Heavy Industry's conditions."

"At the same time, Mr. Ichiro Murata was also unable to provide information on the purchase channels and corresponding sales information of the refrigerators he possessed."

"So I think that since the two sides cannot reach an agreement, we should turn it into a criminal case."

"how?"

After expressing his opinion, Lu Xian blinked innocently.

Upon hearing that the case was to be transferred to a criminal case, Li Yang immediately became anxious.

Disputes over commercial reputation generally fall under the category of civil compensation.

However, if the matter is serious, it will escalate into a criminal case.

In civil cases, the usual outcome is compensation and an apology. If others ask him about it later, he can still stubbornly claim that he was less skilled than others.

However, if it's a criminal case, then a prison sentence is usually imposed!

He opened his mouth, just about to agree to the terms, when he heard Li Jiewei on the other end of the line say softly:
“We agree to turn it into a criminal case. We have only one requirement: that it be handled in accordance with laws and regulations.”

"We will submit the relevant evidence later."

"Okay!" Lu Xian nodded to Li Jiewei, then closed the notebook and turned to look at Li Yang, Murata Ichiro, and Yang Tiantian beside him:
"Comrades, please be prepared for the upcoming questioning and detention measures."

"At the same time, please inform your family members and clearly tell them where you are going."

"During the call, please refrain from using words that are clearly biased or leading."

“We will record your entire call, and we will take action if there are any obviously biased or leading words.”

"This will be very disadvantageous for you."
