Chapter 1053: The Matter is Serious

Fang Xiaoru was stunned: "If I remember correctly, you are a student brought by Professor Zhang Wengong."

"Right!" Chai Guang nodded: "Professor Zhang Wengong stole my paper and published it in a first-class journal without signing my name."

Fang Xiaoru raised his eyebrows: "How can you prove that the paper was written by you?"

Chai Guang said: "The instructor Feng Wei has seen this paper and also gave me quite a few opinions. In addition, there are two other students who have also seen my paper."

Fang Xiaoru asked: "What are the names of those two students?"

Chai Guang said: "They are twin brother and sister, the brother is called Heming, the sister is called Hewu."

Fang Xiaoru pondered for a moment: "You call those two students to my office."

"Great!" Chai Guang agreed and left quickly.

Fang Xiaoru entered the office and poured himself a cup of tea. Zhang Wengong stealing a student's paper and publishing it under his own name, he didn't quite believe it, but if he had to choose, he still chose to believe the student.

If one or two students said Zhang Wengong had a problem, maybe there was some misunderstanding. But Jiang Yeye and so many students all said Zhang Wengong had a problem, then there must be a problem.

Very quickly, the office door was knocked on. Fang Xiaoru shouted: "Come in!"

Chai Guang pushed the door and entered, followed by a boy and a girl.

The boy was handsome, the girl was pretty, looking at their clothing, their family background should be quite good, at least much better than Chai Guang's.

"Come, sit!"

Fang Xiaoru pointed to the sofa and chairs opposite, then looked at the boy and girl: "You are called Heming and Hewu?"

"Yes!" Hewu nodded.

"Good names." Fang Xiaoru smiled: "Chai Guang told you, what is the matter with seeing you?"

"Told us!" Hewu spoke again: "I and my brother both saw Chai Guang's paper, and it's the same as the one Professor Zhang Wengong published in the journal."

"Are you sure?" Fang Xiaoru said very seriously: "This problem is very serious. If you lie, a circular criticism and a warning sanction are light; it's very likely you will be expelled."

"I am responsible for what I said." Hewu's tone was very firm: "Professor Zhang plagiarized Chai Guang's paper; next time he might plagiarize our paper. So, we are not acting as witnesses for Chai Guang, but speaking out for ourselves."

Heming nodded along: "I will be responsible for our remarks."

"Fine!" Fang Xiaoru looked at the two students with great appreciation: "You go back first, when we need you to testify, we will call you again."

"Okay." Hewu and Heming stood up: "Goodbye, President."

Watching Hewu and Heming leave, Fang Xiaoru said to Chai Guang again: "You go and call your instructor over."

Chai Guang left quickly again. This time it took longer, more than an hour before he came over.

Fang Xiaoru understood the situation and determined that Zhang Wengong had indeed plagiarized Chai Guang's paper and published it. He grabbed the phone and called Fan Zhengxiang, the director of the Discipline Inspection Office, asking him to come to his office.

"President, what's the matter so urgently?"

"Sit!" Fang Xiaoru stood up, sat on the sofa with Fan Zhengxiang, and took out a cigarette to hand to Fan Zhengxiang.

Looking at Fang Xiaoru's solemn expression, Fan Zhengxiang's heart started drumming. Nothing happened, right?

His mind was wandering, but his mouth didn't stop: "Read it, and I also saw the internal reference from Guangdong Province, which has an article by Zhou Andong that wasn't reported in the newspaper."

This was beyond Fang Xiaoru's expectation: "Internal reference from Guangdong Province, has an article published by Zhou Andong?"

"Right!" Fan Zhengxiang said: "In the article, he wrote, 'For every Chinese person, patriotism is a duty, and also a responsibility, it is what the heart is tied to, and also where the feelings belong...'"

Fan Zhengxiang repeated the article Zhou Andong published in the Guangdong internal reference word for word.

"He also said, 'As a Chinese youth in the new era, we must cherish this era, shoulder the mission of the era, temper ourselves in responsibility, and grow in fulfilling duties.'"

"Good!" Fang Xiaoru slapped his thigh and shouted "good": "This is the kind of thinking the youth of this era should have."

Fan Zhengxiang said: "So, I have already ordered to publish this article by Zhou Andong in our school newspaper."

"Such an article must be published in the school newspaper."

Saying this, Fang Xiaoru shook his head again, with a look of regret.

"How come Zhou Andong isn't a student at our school?"

Fan Zhengxiang smiled: "It is said that he graduated from Fengjing Agricultural University. Originally, he could have stayed in the provincial capital, but because his father was in poor health and bedridden all year round, and there were underage younger brothers and sisters below, he chose to return to Jiangzhou.

But at the time, he was supposed to be assigned to the Jiangzhou Education Bureau, but I don't know the reason, he was assigned to the winery. As for the following things, you should understand."

Fan Zhengxiang smiled: "It is said that he graduated from Jingcheng Agricultural University. He could have stayed in the provincial capital, but because his father was in poor health and bedridden year-round, and he had younger siblings who were still minors, he chose to return to Jiangzhou."

"What?" Fan Zhengxiang couldn't believe it: "Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Fang Xiaoru stood up, took the ashtray from the desk, and placed it on the coffee table.

"This student is called Chai Guang, his paper was seen by three people. One is his instructor, and two are students."

Fang Xiaoru explained the matter in detail: "It's not just these; many students have reflected to me that Zhang Wengong often sneaks in private agendas during public lectures, promoting the ideology of worshipping foreign things.

Just now, when I came back from the meeting at the Ministry, I saw a large group of students sticking big characters on the wall, supporting Zhou Andong, severely punishing Zhang Wengong, which explains the problem."

Fan Zhengxiang frowned: "Then this matter is serious."

Fang Xiaoru said solemnly: "You first have a talk with Zhang Wengong. If he admits it, give him some face and let him resign himself. If he doesn't cooperate, then start the investigation procedure, and do whatever should be done."

"Great!" Fan Zhengxiang agreed and stood up: "I'll go back and prepare."

………………

Zhang Wengong checked the manuscript and was quite satisfied with his writing.

Then he stood up and left the office, went out of the office building, and prepared to go to the newspaper office.

When passing the comprehensive building, he saw a black mass of people gathered there, at least one or two hundred. He walked over curiously.

Then he saw the big characters stuck on the wall, especially the words "Severely punish the poisonous professor Zhang Wengong," which made his blood rush, his head throb with pain, and that old face turned frighteningly red.

"Who stuck this? Who stuck this?"

This old guy roared, pushed through the crowd in anger, went inside, and wanted to tear the red paper down.

"What are you doing?" A boy blocked Zhang Wengong. ===== CHAPTER 1054 =====

The old man let out an angry roar, and in a fit of rage, he pushed through the crowd, went inside, and was about to tear down the red paper.

"What are you doing?" A male student blocked Zhang Wengong's path.
