January 30th was a neither good nor bad day for Zhou Yi.
There is nothing sensitive in Fang Dazhuang's legal calendar, but there is one thing that is suitable for investigation today.
Could it be that today is the time for the market supervision department to conduct an investigation?
Forget it, regardless of all this, all we can do after reporting is wait and wait for a result on whether there is price fraud and what the subsequent administrative penalties will be.
Today is just an ordinary day for Gao Yuxia and even the executives of Afu Company. They go to work and hold meetings to arrange work.
Tang Pengcheng, general manager of Afu Company, was arranging work at the meeting and was also going to hold an annual meeting. The company's performance this year was good.
"We did a great job last time. I hope that next time we can..."
However, before Tang Pengcheng could finish his words, the secretary came over with an anxious look on his face and whispered something in his ear. In an instant, Mr. Tang's face changed.
"Really? Where is he?"
"He's already come into our company, saying he wants to meet with us and start investigating right away!"
Tang Pengcheng no longer cared about the meeting arrangements and quickly said, "The market regulator is here to investigate. What's going on? They've already arrived at the company, so why haven't we heard anything yet?"
For normal disputes, the market supervision department would never conduct such a large-scale investigation.
Likewise, when the relevant authorities come to conduct such an investigation, it means that your matter is quite serious...
The executives sitting in the office looked at each other in confusion. Gao Yuxia hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Tang, how about we ask first to see if we're the only one being investigated?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Pengcheng nodded immediately. He was a little anxious about the news just now. As long as they were not the only family under investigation, it would actually be fine.
If everyone is investigated together, it is equivalent to no one being investigated.
Soon, Tang Pengcheng took Gao Yuxia and several other senior executives downstairs and met the investigators from the market supervision department. There were quite a lot of people.
"Hello, this is Mr. Tang Pengcheng, right? I'm from the market supervision department of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Your previous promotions are suspected of price gouging, so we need to investigate."
Price gouging?
Tang Pengcheng said enthusiastically with a smile on his face, "No problem, no problem. Our company will fully cooperate. By the way, I want to ask, is this a general survey or..."
The staff member did not respond and quickly started working with others. All they had to do was to retrieve the prices directly from the backend of Afu Company.
The other party didn't say anything, so Tang Pengcheng started making phone calls and soon got the answer through his own connections.
"So, Lao Liu, more than ten companies were investigated today, right? Oh, all kinds of industries are involved. Okay, I get it. I was caught off guard. Contact me if you have any further questions."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Pengcheng looked at several senior executives and said, "It's confirmed. This is not targeting us. This sudden investigation involves more than ten companies from all walks of life."
"So there shouldn't be any major problems. Everyone go ahead and get busy. Yuxia, you watch over here and see if you can find out anything."
Gao Yuxia nodded. She didn't think much about it. Since it was not targeted at their family, there would be no problem for the time being.
This is how Fang Dazhuang always does things. Filing a lawsuit is a lesson, and filing a complaint and reporting is also a lesson.
If the complaint was just against Afu's family, the market supervision would definitely investigate and deal with it, but it would not be like it is now.
This kind of investigation means that the relevant departments are ready to crack down on a certain phenomenon.
Setting the tone is very important. The classic cases and guiding cases published by the Supreme People's Court every year that explain the law through cases are all setting the tone.
Sometimes it is impossible to determine something just by reading the legal provisions, and even adding judicial interpretations may not necessarily make it clear.
The same thing can be applied to this article or that article. What should we do? At this time, the Supreme Court needs to set the tone.
.
In this case, if this kind of inflated prices and high discounts that are prevalent for a period of time is determined to be price fraud, then when the case is brought to court, the court will not easily change the verdict. Everyone who understands this understands this.
This is something that will not be written in the law.
Tang Pengcheng probably thought that this time it might be because the 40% off discount they offered last time was too great, so people were targeting them.
But other companies that were inexplicably investigated were also left stunned. For example, Asheng, another gold industry peer, was stunned when market regulators arrived.
The last time they held an event was on Double 12 and Double 11, and even the Double 12 event was not that big. They originally planned to hold it before the New Year.
Before the event even started, the market regulators came knocking on their door. Not to mention the other companies, Fang Dazhang was only involved with large companies; he was too lazy to collect evidence for the smaller ones.
Everything has been arranged. As long as the market supervision department has results from the investigation, Zhou Yi will directly file a lawsuit. This is a natural thing to do.
The Shenzhen Stock Exchange is conducting an intensive investigation, and previously, the Lincheng Court accepted the lawsuit filed by Zhou Xinran. Service has begun over the past two days.
So, in a very short period of time, some netizens who had previously spoken foul language online suddenly found themselves the defendants!
In a residential building in Shanghai, Ren Qijun was browsing the news online with a dull look on his face. He was the one on the Internet who said, "The wind on the rooftop was very strong last night."
