Section 4, providing counsel and strategies is an obligation that cannot be shirked

"Yes, we have that right," said Lu Weimin, and Zhen Jie felt invigorated, "Let's go find Chen Fazhong!"

Zhen Jie was also filled with inexplicable grief and indignation. She believed that her father would absolutely not have any issues in this regard. Although the family possessed a number of antique calligraphy and painting collections, these items were mostly small trinkets that her father had salvaged from flea markets, and most of them were not worth much. All of these were registered and sealed by those people just now.

Lu Weimin crossed his arms, gently stroking the stubble on his chin with his fingers.

Zhen Jie, I am afraid we need to quickly find those people to understand the situation; we have that right. Lu Weimin knew that Zhen Jie had a rather independent character, much more self-reliant than her mother.

Zhen Jie immediately reacted, her face suddenly turning somewhat pale, "Are you saying..."

What truly led to Zhen Jingcai's disgrace was merely some issues related to his personal conduct, and ultimately, he was sanctioned by the party and government solely due to these conduct issues. In other words, Zhen Jingcai was clear regarding economic matters.

It is evident that Chen Fazhong played a role in this matter

Lu Weimin was striving to recall his memories regarding this case. He was not entirely clear about the specific details of the case, but he knew that it ultimately had not been classified.

Lu Weimin did not think too much about it; he quickly rode his bike out of the factory's residential area. He did not want to linger in the factory, lest more people notice him walking together with Zhen Jie

However..." Zhen Jie bit her lip, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, her charming face pale, "But such matters are widely circulated. Even if my father comes out in the future, how can I still establish myself in the factory?"

Lu Weimin secretly felt fortunate; if he had not arrived a few minutes earlier to obtain the contact information of the person from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, he would have no idea how much effort it would take to help Zhen Jingcai turn the situation around. However, the current situation was still very severe. Since the Commission dared to take Zhen Jingcai away, they must have some evidence in their hands.

Did they leave their contact information? How long do they need to review Uncle Zhen? Will you be able to see Uncle Zhen? Lu Weimin asked in rapid succession.

No, that won't do. Lu Weimin shook his head, saying, "We cannot go find Chen Fazhong."

Lu Weimin was contemplating how to address this matter, as it was imperative to halt its further development in the shortest possible time. Although it could later be proven that Zhen Jingcai was innocent regarding the economic issues, the implications related to his personal conduct had already tarnished Zhen Jingcai's reputation, making it impossible for him to remain at Factory 195. This outcome was something Lu Weimin was unwilling to witness

Zhen Jie, now is not the time to consider this issue. As long as we can clarify Uncle Zhen's situation in the shortest time possible, we can most effectively dispel the rumors. You know that such news cannot be kept from people. I dare say that within two or three days, it will be known by everyone in the factory

After a moment of silence, Zhen Jie seemed to be moved by Lu Weimin's steadfastness and said softly: "Those people just now are said to be from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, here to investigate my father. They claimed that my father is involved in a bribery case, and Chen Fazhong confirmed their identities. My father also looked at their credentials"

"No one said anything, only that it is a private owner." Zhen Jie shook her head, her finely curled eyelashes resembling a feather fan, but with an added layer of mist. Her slightly swollen eyes contained a hint of resentment.

Zhen Jie, I believe there is something suspicious about this matter. We all trust Uncle Zhen, but the disciplinary inspection commission must have some evidence to investigate; they wouldn't target Uncle Zhen without reason. Since they mentioned that Uncle Zhen received certain items and cash from someone, did they specify who that person is?

Uncle Zhen soliciting and accepting bribes? Lu Weimin was certain in his heart that everything was consistent with history; Zhen Jingcai was indeed taken down because of this matter. However, how the outcome unfolds will depend on what kind of changes his inexplicable return to this era will bring. Uncle Zhen is not that kind of person

After comforting her distraught mother for a few moments, Zhen Jie followed Lu Weimin out the door. Lu Weimin mounted his bicycle, and after a moment of hesitation, Zhen Jie decided to jump onto the back seat. This was originally the spot her younger sister often occupied, but today it was her turn to sit there, leaving her with an indescribable feeling.

However, it is precisely because of the issue of bribery that Zhen Jingcai was subjected to a comprehensive investigation by the Discipline Inspection Commission. In this context, achieving a result that reflects only issues related to personal conduct without any economic problems can already be considered quite "innocent"

Zhen Jie also realized that some things might not be appropriate to say in front of her mother. As a daughter, she naturally would not be unaware of her father's temperament and style. Thinking of this, Zhen Jie felt even more anxious.

"The issue is that those people need to believe it. They claim that my father accepted a set of expensive decorative items and a large sum of cash from a private employer. My father insists that he has never accepted any items or cash from anyone. They searched our home thoroughly but found nothing. In the end, they still wanted us to consider the consequences of concealing or covering up the truth."

I cannot say whether Chen Fazhong has any suspicion of taking advantage of the situation, but it is a fact that Uncle Zhen and Chen Fazhong do not have a good relationship. Therefore, we can only approach Gu Mingliang, asking him to step in to understand the situation and to apply pressure, demanding that the Discipline Inspection Commission provide a clear statement and a deadline. After all, Uncle Zhen is the deputy director of Factory 195, and his work is very important; he cannot cooperate with their investigation indefinitely. Of course, if it does not affect his primary duties, Uncle Zhen can certainly assist them in their work.

It was not until the 21st century that the corruption scandal during the listing process of Factory 195 erupted, leading to the imprisonment of all three individuals. Liang Guangda, the Party Secretary and Chairman of the Group Company, was sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve, becoming a figure of significant shock not only in the province but also across the nation.

In my memory, after Zhen Jie graduated from graduate school, she went abroad and seemed to have married an American of Korean descent. However, the marriage was not happy, and a few years later, she divorced and returned to the country. Later, I heard that she was developing her career in Shanghai and had become a somewhat well-known lawyer. Subsequently, I also heard that while representing a case, she was discredited by the opposing party using underhanded tactics, which caused quite a stir at the time. After that, she seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

In my memory, after Zhen Jingcai's unfortunate downfall, Yao Zhibin was promoted to deputy factory director. Yao Zhibin had a close relationship with Chen Fazhong and was in cahoots with Liang Guangda. Later, when Guo Zheng was reassigned to work in Changzhou City, Chen Fazhong took on the role of deputy secretary of the party committee and executive vice president of the already restructured Liming Machinery Industry Group.

"We need to find Gu Yingliang and Guo Zheng." After parking the bicycle at the Danfeng Bridge, Lu Weimin pondered for a while before saying, "Although this matter seems inappropriate to escalate, it has reached this point, and no one can help us. Gu Yingliang is the Party Secretary of Factory 195 and is Uncle Zhen's superior. We must seek him out to understand the situation, and I estimate that he should be aware by now that Uncle Zhen has been taken away for investigation."

Zhen Jie hesitated for a moment, "They did not leave any contact information, but said that if there are any developments, they would notify us through Chen Fazhong. We can also reach out to them through Chen Fazhong if we have any matters to discuss"

Lu Weimin shook his head again, "It is still too early to say. I just want to be cautious, Zhenjie. It is inconvenient at home; let us go out to discuss while looking for someone."
