Chapter 96 Misunderstanding?
With anxiety in his heart, Shen Tai'an walked into the tea room pretending to be calm. He did not dare to move closer to the tea table, because he never had a place in the more central position.
Therefore, after entering the tea room, he immediately wanted to kneel down next to the door, but was stopped by Councilor Kong with a smile.
"Sit over here, Tai'an," Councilor Kong smiled and waved to him, gesturing for him to sit next to Nan Xuyu.
Shen Tai'an became even more flustered. He lowered his head, not daring to let the three people in the tea room see his pale face. He just cautiously moved his position and sat down next to Nan Xuyu. .
"Keep talking, Xuyu," after he took his seat, the tea master poured tea into the tea cup in front of him, and Councilor Kong turned his attention to Nan Xuyu and said.
“As I said before,” Nan Xuyu should have picked up the previous topic, he said, “This video exposed on NGN has become the top trending video on Yahoo Korea. It not only diverted the attention of the people from the '12093 Bribery Case', but also turned the focus to the Ministry of National Defense."
His words have been there before. Yin Zhimin, who was staring at Shen Taian, suddenly opened his eyes. He said: "What we have to do now is to call for the launch of the first round of meetings of the Military Prosecution and Investigation Review Committee to investigate Jin Yudong's sexual assault crimes. In this way, as the primary whistleblower of the '12093 Bribery Case', once Jin Yudong If Dong's sexual assault crime is confirmed, then the prosecutor's office may not be able to hold on to this case."
After hearing what the two said, Shen Tai'an, who had been keeping his head down, shook his head. Suddenly, he seemed to realize something.
In these two short sentences between Nan Xuyu and Yin Zhimin, two key information points were mentioned: NGN, Jin Yudong.
Of course he knew about NGN. Zhao Jingsheng and Zhao Chenghao had mentioned it to him before, saying that they and An Rusong had set up a company together and created some kind of instant messaging software called NGN.
As for Jin Yudong, he knew this person's name even more clearly. The crisis that Congressman Kong encountered this time started from this person. This person reported Representative Yoo and Representative Kong to the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office, giving the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office an excuse to launch an investigation into the two congressmen.
The two short sentences between Nan Xuyu and Yin Zhimin seemed to mean that someone spread a video on NGN, which contained evidence that Jin Yudong sexually assaulted someone. And this video seems to have spread on the Internet and triggered heated discussions. This
Shen Tai'an's eyelids were straight. He naturally knew what this meant to Councilor Kong, and he vaguely understood it. Why does Councilor Kong behave so kindly and kindly when treating himself? Maybe...maybe there is some misunderstanding?
Across the tea table, Councilor Kong nodded slightly after listening to Yin Zhimin’s suggestion.
It must be admitted that the emergence of the Internet during that period almost instantly kicked away the mountain that had been pressing on Congressman Kong recently. Because as of now, the only evidence that the Supreme Prosecutor's Office can really produce to prove the case is Jin Yudong's report. As for the bite from Damushan Group, haha, it is indeed painful enough, but it has not yet been The method will directly cause harm to Councilor Kong and others.
To put it bluntly, the method used by the Supreme Prosecutor's Office is to use Jin Yudong's testimony as a rope to tie the hands and feet of Representative Kong and others, and then chop off their " twigs". In this process, Damushan Group is one of the peripheral branches, and the Zhao Jingsheng brothers are also one of the branches.
With Kim Woo-dong’s testimony, the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office can direct the public’s attention. As long as this focus exists, neither Representative Kong nor Representative Yoo can do anything, because everyone The society is questioning them and paying attention to them, and any actions they take may be exploited by the Supreme Prosecutor's Office.
But now, Jin Yudong, as the witness, has a problem.
The video circulating on the Internet is too clear. In that video, the man who just a few days ago righteously condemned Representatives Yoo and Kong for bribing him in front of reporters. The official used heinous methods to sexually assault a woman.
As Nan Xuyu said, this incident has caused an uproar on the Internet. On the Yahoo Korea forum, there are a large number of posts calling for Kim Yudong's death. The image of justice he had previously created among the public disappeared almost overnight. It fell apart in between.
As a result, a question is placed in front of the public: Is the testimony given by a well-dressed beast like Jin Yudong really credible? Is it really reasonable for the Supreme Prosecutor's Office to launch an investigation into the two congressmen based on his remarks? Is there really no problem?
On the one hand, the public's attention has been diverted, and on the other hand, the position of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office has been questioned. In this case, Councilman Kong and Councilor Liu can both take action and do something. At least, they don't have to be as passive as before.
As long as the shackles of Jin Yudong are removed, the remaining "twigs and branches" can naturally be easily dealt with by Representative Kong.
After all, he is a senior member of Congress in the Grand National Party. He was caught off guard before and fell into passivity. Now that he has a chance to turn around, Congressman Kong will not sit still and wait for death.
"Xuyu, what do you think?" In the tea room, Councilor Kong turned his attention to Nan Xuyu and asked.
"I think we don't need to do anything now," Nan Xuyu obviously had a different view from Yin Zhimin. He thought for a moment and said, "At least we don't have to do anything too obvious."
"Oh?" Councilor Kong showed an interested expression on his face.
“Although the current overall situation is more favorable to us, the previous investigation of us by the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office has already had a certain impact on the people,” Nan Xuyu said , "Although the public is forgetful, forgetting also takes a certain amount of time, so we The best way to deal with it at the moment is to stay still, at least, without making any obvious counterattacks."
After a pause, he continued: "Of course, we don't do anything, no. It means being indifferent. We should mobilize public opinion. ”
"I will have a talk with Editors Li and Jin later," Nan Xuyu continued after glancing at Councilor Kong and seeing that he had no intention of objecting, "calling for the launch of the first round of meetings of the Military Prosecution and Investigation Review Committee. , the JoongAng Ilbo and the Dong-A Ilbo could be the first to put it forward, and put pressure on the National Assembly’s Legislative Affairs and Judiciary Committee and the Ministry of National Defense through public opinion.” Representative Kong seemed to agree with this proposal, and he nodded slightly.
"As for you," Nan Xuyu further said with the approval of the congressman, "you can get sick at the right time and show yourself as a weak person or even a victim. Gaining the sympathy of the people, at this time, you can gain more support from the people by showing weakness than by being tough."
Congressman Kong had a faint smile on his face, and it was obvious that he was interested in this. The proposal is quite satisfactory.
"Jimin, what's your opinion?" Although he had already approved Nan Xuyu's suggestion, Councilor Kong turned to Yoon Jimin beside him and asked in a consultative tone.
"This method is more appropriate," Yin Zhimin said quickly.
"Taian, what do you think?" Councilor Kong tilted his head again, turned his gaze to Shen Tai'an, and asked in a soft tone.
"I admire Mr. Nan's thorough thinking." To be honest, when Councilor Kong called out his name, Shen Tai'an was stunned, because this was the first time Councilor Kong asked him. Opinion: In the past, MPs gave him orders directly.
Fortunately, Shen Tai'an has been in a state of high excitement and his mind is very active since entering the tea room, so although he felt unexpected, he responded quickly.
"Then let's arrange it this way," Councilor Kong nodded and said.
Nan Xuyu and Yin Zhimin nodded in agreement, then stood up, bowed, and left.
Shen Tai'an also followed the example of the two of them, stood up from his kneeling position, and wanted to leave with the two of them.
"Taian, please stay here for a while." Unexpectedly, Councilor Kong actually kept him.
Shen Tai'an quickly stopped. He did not go back and sit down directly. Instead, he kept bowing and waited for Nan Xuyu and Yin Zhimin to go out. Then he carefully returned to his seat and sat down. .
"Taian, you did a good job this time," Councilor Kong said with a smile as he watched him sit down.
Sure enough, there was a misunderstanding. Shen Tai'an was convinced, but he pretended to be nonchalant and said: "It was just a mistake. I don't dare to take credit."
"Haha, merit is merit," Councilor Kong picked up the tea cup in front of him , took a sip of tea, and said, "It's just that, it doesn't matter whether it was a mistake or not."
His last sentence, "It's just that", added an accent, Shen Tai'an can It could be heard that he also understood what the other party meant.
"From now on, I will strictly restrain the people below and ask them to abide by the rules." Shen Tai'an stood up, bowed and said.
Congressman Kong’s hint is very simple. He is very satisfied with the video that appeared on NGN, but he is dissatisfied that he was not informed before the video was spread. This kind of behavior that makes his own opinions makes him unhappy. Not happy anymore.
Of course, what Representative Kong didn't know was that Shen Tai'an had no idea about the video. At first, when Liu Taihe was running the Huapai website, he only reported to Councilor Kong that Zhao Jingsheng and the others had developed an NGN software. After that, Councilor Kong didn't care much about the software, so he didn't give much. of attention.
Nan Xuyu was the first to get the news about this incident. He learned that the video about Jin Yudong first appeared on the NGN software. Only then did Congressman Kong realize that this software was owned by Shen Taian. It was created by people, so there was such a misunderstanding.
“Don’t be too serious,” Councilor Kong showed a magnanimous attitude now that the issue was raised. He said with a smile, “Young people, some drive and some ambition are all good.”< br>
After a pause, he asked again: "I remember you said before, what is that young man's name? An."
"An Rusong," Shen Tai'an said hurriedly.
"Yes, An Rusong," Councilor Kong nodded and said, "Well, let's arrange for him to come over for dinner in the evening. I want to meet him."
