Chapter 372: The Law Does Not Punish Everyone
In the evening, after dinner, Chu Yang went for a walk by the river to digest the food in his stomach. He also had a video call with Zhiying and talked sweet words with her for a while. He returned to the dormitory door at about 8:30.
From a distance, I saw Chunlan quietly approaching and whispered, "Boss Chu, someone is waiting for you at the door of your room. They have been waiting for you for an hour."
Chu Yang looked up and indeed found a person he had seen before. He was probably the director of the institute.
Chu Yang was a little unhappy. It was so late, and there were still people waiting here. Ever since he used his little trick last time, his house had become bustling. Every night, there were always people coming to his house.
I don't know who spread the word that I was from Baichuan and graduated from Baichuan No. 1 Middle School. After that, all the graduates of Baichuan School in the company came to me to try to establish a classmate relationship and said they were my alumni.
You know what, this trick really works, at least it allows me to get in.
Chu Yang was really fucking convinced.
He didn't have a solid foundation and didn't want people to say that he was forming cliques. Of course, Chu Yang also discovered that Baichuan was a place that loved to form cliques. Anyway, people from the east and south of the city could form a circle, and people from No. 1 Middle School and No. 2 Middle School could also form a circle.
They just came, and they didn't come empty-handed, they all brought something, which was a headache.
It’s not right to accept it, and it’s not right not to accept it. In this case, you are neither accepted nor condemned.
In fact, it was also Chu Yang’s fault for not explaining it clearly. When they were in the office, they also sent gifts, but Chu Yang always said not to do these things in public. They probably thought that Chu Yang said that gift giving should be private.
To be honest, although Chu Yang has followed Mr. Li for so long, he has become more open-minded about this.
Although Chu Yang knew that these people just wanted to use his connections to get ahead, he couldn't shut them all out. Secondly, he was afraid of getting a bad reputation for being hypocritical and not recognizing people. In this circle these days, being hypocritical is a very deadly thing.
Unless you can reach Mr. Li’s level, being aloof is really not a good virtue.
The awkward thing is that Chu Yang can't be too friendly with them. If he pockets everything they give him, then in the near future, he will definitely be imprisoned.
Chu Yang really wanted to turn around and leave, and just continue wandering outside.
But that person also saw Chu Yang, and immediately walked over quickly and said respectfully: "Hello, Mr. Chu, I am Lao Weichang, the deputy director of the Chengnan Institute."
“Oh, Director Lao, what’s the matter?” Since someone came to visit, Chu Yang had to greet them with a smile.
"Haha, Mr. Chu, I have some important things here and I want to report to you." When Lao Weichang said this, his expression was like an informer, as if he was going to report someone.
Chu Yang frowned, not knowing what he was going to say. He wondered whether he should let him continue, because he was not the top leader and did not have absolute power. So sometimes knowing more was not a good thing, but would make him feel uncomfortable.
Lao Weichang had indeed come to complain, because last time Chu Yang asked him to report on his work, but later said it was not necessary . This matter had been on Lao Weichang's mind all the time. Later, he met Chu Yang at a meeting and found that Chu Yang had no impression of him either. He couldn't figure it out and couldn't sleep well.
He felt that it shouldn't be like this.
Chu Yang used him just to scare others last time, he didn't intend to use him at all. Later he scared Li Jie and achieved his goal, so naturally he didn't need him to report on work anymore.
Their squad leader Chen Le guessed what he was thinking, so he analyzed the situation for him and told him that Director Li had gone to see Chu Yang without telling him in the morning. He also hinted that it must have been Director Li who said something bad about him in front of Chu Yang, which prevented him from seeing President Chu.
This time.
He exploded.
Naturally, Chen Le intended to sow discord on purpose. Anyway, the more the two directors quarreled, the better. It is said that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. If one of them left after the quarrel, he, the squad leader, would have the opportunity to take his place.
People are selfish.
Of course, people are also blind.
Lao Weichang is not a fool, but he is confused by the situation and missed an opportunity. He has been looking for the reason. After hearing Chen Le's analysis, he also felt that this must be the case.
What else could it be?
Naturally, he hated Li Jie in his heart. He came here today just to report Director Li.
"Come in and tell me what you want to say." Chu Yang planned to listen first before speaking.
After inviting this guy in, Chu Yang closed the door.
"Mr. Chu, I want to report to you the three major crimes of our director Li Jie: embezzlement of public funds, theft by an employer, and false reporting of invoices for missed meals." This guy started gritting his teeth as soon as he came in. It seemed that the conflict between him and Li Jie had indeed reached an irreconcilable point.
When Chu Yang heard this, he felt a little uncomfortable. Are you too impatient?
"Director Lao, please don't say such things carelessly. There must be evidence for everything, otherwise it will be slander." Chu Yang asked coldly.
When Lao Weichang heard this, an extremely exaggerated expression of astonishment appeared on his face. He continued, "Boss Chu, I am telling you this because I believe in your character and that you are a fair and just leader. I never tell lies. Li Jie embezzled 100,000 yuan of public funds for rural power grid transformation, and later used money from another project to make up for it. Also, he secretly sold the cables from the institute last year, but reported that they were stolen and sold for more than 50,000 yuan. Finally, he does not go to the countryside every month, but reports meal expenses every day, earning several thousand yuan a month. These evidences are actually very easy to find. As long as the company wants to investigate, it can find out."
Seeing his resolute look, Chu Yang was actually willing to believe him. It was impossible for him to make up so many things out of nothing. He estimated that Li Jie had indeed done a lot of evil things. As long as he reported it and investigated, there would definitely be results.
But if you really want to check, I guess there aren't many clean people in this company.
The key is whether you really want to do it.
How severe the impact is.
Chu Yang had just arrived. If he found out about such a scandal at this time, it would cause a big uproar. Wouldn't that be a bad thing? Wouldn't the other directors be worried? How could they carry out their work?
Things may seem simple and it is not your problem, but the pressure is on you.
If we really need to investigate, should we investigate all the directors? If we find that all the directors have problems, wouldn’t that be embarrassing?
There is a rule in the law that says that the law does not hold everyone responsible. This is a very ridiculous yet very reasonable rule.
Chu Yang also couldn't understand, if everyone broke the law, would they not be held accountable?
