Chapter 452: Chapter 452: The Most Authoritative Inspection_1
I had thought I could head back to Silver Moonlight for a peaceful cup of tea and ponder how to draw the people of Jing City to my chessboard, but as soon as I stepped through the revolving door of Silver Moonlight, two men in suits approached me.
"Mr. Shen Dong?" The man in the suit frowned and looked sideways at his companion.
The two exchanged glances, and the latter stepped forward, "May I ask where your guardian is, and also, who is in charge of Tianhe infant formula?"
It had begun.
Melamine.
Shen Dong sneered inwardly; although he was physically slighter than the men in suits.
But he walked up with a smile, patted the man in the suit on the shoulder, and jested, "Thank my master for you."
Having said that, Shen Dong snatched the court summons and handed it to Kang Yue.
"Get ready, we’re putting on a big show."
The man in the suit furrowed his brow; he had no idea what Shen Dong meant, nor could he have imagined that this was a ’big pit’ Shen Dong had been preparing for.
The melamine was a trap Shen Dong had deliberately set.
He had long been ready for everything, with children and actors all in place.
This word of thanks baffled Zhao Wenliang’s two lackeys, who exchanged looks and stepped out of Silver Moonlight, phone in hand.
"How many people have you prepared?" Back upstairs, Shen Dong waited for Kang Yue to enter the room, made sure the corridor was empty, and shut the door.
Kang Yue responded with a bright smile, "Currently eighty-seven people, and the number of registrants is still rising."
"Can you guarantee the quality of the infant formula?"
"The most cost-effective infant formula on the market at the moment, what it lacks is just an authoritative certification."
Shen Dong was extremely satisfied with this answer.
He circled the computer desk and climbed onto the windowsill, "Don’t hire a lawyer. After going to court, request that Tian Dynasty’s most authoritative department conduct a surprise inspection of the Tianhe infant formula on the market and have CTV supervise the entire process!"
"Afterward, please ask Penguin to help publicize the results of the inspection."
"Making such a big fuss?" Kang Yue laughed when she heard this, resting her arm skillfully on Shen Dong’s shoulder, "You’re trying to kill Zhao Wenliang."
"Not to that extent, it’s just a matter of losing the case and bearing the cost of the inspection, plus compensating us a sum for damages to our reputation!" Shen Dong’s eyes gleamed coldly, tearing apart the capital, starting with you, Zhao Wenliang.
The trial date was set for the day before the concert.
At Jing City Intermediate Court, Huaxu Group’s fairly influential leaders had all gathered, including representatives of Tianhe infant formula users.
Tang Yuchan, Kang Yue, and Zhou Chengyu stood in the defendant’s dock.
Several weeping women, the plaintiffs, occupied the most vocal position in the audience section, while Zhao Wenliang, dressed plainly, propped up his chin and gazed at Shen Dong.
Zhao Wenliang was silent, but his eyes were full of provocation.
"The accusation, against Tianhe infant formula processing factory owned by Huaxu Group..." After a tedious procedure, the plaintiff’s lawyer delivered an impassioned speech, listing the ten major sins of the Huaxu products.
Zhao Wenliang had also hired plants, and before long, rotten eggs and cabbages were flying.
"Quiet!" The judge’s gavel struck with a bang, silencing the room. He turned his head towards Tang Yuchan, Kang Yue, and Zhou Chengyu, asking, "What do you have to say in response to the plaintiff’s accusation that your formula contains synthetic chemicals harmful to children’s health?"
Tang Yuchan stepped forward and took the microphone, "For this, we have invited 103 users of Tianhe infant formula. Furthermore, we would like the court to agree to stop all internal communication and request that the most authoritative institution in Tian Dynasty conduct the most authoritative inspections of the Tianhe infant formula that are currently on sale nationwide. We believe that any defense would be an insult to our brand. Additionally, we have invited reporters from six CTV channels to notarize for Tianhe."
"I emphasize."
"Tianhe accepts any reasonable competition, but will never tolerate malicious competition tactics such as defamation and spreading rumors."
Having spoken, Tang Yuchan retreated to her original place.
Zhou Chengyu showed no inkling of ’defendant’s awareness. He gave Tang Yuchan a thumbs-up and said, "Impressive speech, but you should add, ’raised by a sow, thinking you can cheat your father...’"
"Defendant, observe courtroom discipline!"
Ha-ha, the whole courtroom burst into laughter.
The people from Huaxu were nervous at first, but seeing their boss so relaxed, they started to clap.
Some were jubilant while others worried.
Zhao Wenliang’s face turned ashen, as he hurriedly took out his mobile phone, hiding it under the table and quickly pressed a few buttons. From Tang Yuchan’s commanding presence, anyone could tell she had fallen into a trap.
But he had obtained the documents on melamine.
"Eh?" His call was not yet dialed when court officials seized his phone. The man, with an impartial expression, stated firmly, "To prevent interference, no one is allowed to contact the outside world. Please cooperate."
He agreed?
Shen Dong was secretly delighted upon hearing this. He apologized to those around him and moved from seat to seat until he reached Zhao Wenliang’s side.
Once the court officials had gone, Shen Dong imitated Zhao Wenliang’s earlier posture, resting his chin on his arm and gazing at Zhao Wenliang, "I had a document drafted titled ’The Babies of Our Empire and Their Future.’
An invitation to milk powder, health, and life, I didn’t expect that CTV would take it so seriously and come."
"I also asked Penguin to start pop-up news from eight o’clock this morning to warm up the case. Fortunately, Penguin agreed too."
"Thank you, really. I can’t think of any way to get Huaxu known nationwide as fast as you have helped me."
After speaking, Shen Dong extended a hand to Zhao Wenliang, "Pleasure working with you."
"Who the hell is working with you!" Zhao Wenliang, infuriated, flung his arm and stood up at once.
"Quiet!"
At the reprimand, Zhao Wenliang had no choice but to sit down. By now, he couldn’t think of what methods Prince would use against him.
Zhao Wenliang swallowed hard, his gaze slightly vacant.
He watched the jury members make phone calls, almost witnessing the most authoritative institution in the empire, with the cooperation of the law enforcement, searching nationwide for Tianhe milk powder.
"Impossible." Zhao Wenliang, panicked, felt sweat beads forming on his forehead.
He mumbled to himself, "Impossible. I have detailed information. You are producing melamine. I have all your lab reports, synthesis records, even samples!"
"Exactly." Shen Dong scratched his head, looking puzzled at Zhao Wenliang, "But so what if I produce melamine? Melamine is also known as protein essence..."
"Right, you use it as fake protein!" Zhao Wenliang became agitated.
Unexpectedly, Shen Dong cracked a smile, "Melamine is also an important chemical raw material with excellent waterproof and thermal insulation properties. We’re researching it to enhance its effects. Why would we need fake protein?"
"On purpose?"
Seeing the spectrum of colors cross Zhao Wenliang’s face, Shen Dong chuckled softly, patted Zhao Wenliang’s shoulder as he stood up, "Either way, after this is over, I’ll take you out for a meal."
"Get lost!" Zhao Wenliang, feeling a tightness in his chest, looked agitatedly around.
He knew Shen Dong was researching melamine and his first thought was fake protein. Exactly, Shen Dong hadn’t done anything. He just dug a hole, and he, himself had jumped right in.
Realizing this, Zhao Wenliang gritted his teeth in frustration, but he had no time to go crazy with Shen Dong.
How would he deal with Prince?
