Chapter 834: Fairness and Justice

Tang Wenlong saw the picture; although he felt he might fail, he was unwilling to accept it.

He struggled for a long time before obtaining Douyin's red packet data.

An abnormality was discovered from the data analysis.

(This can be inferred through data statistics; normal red packet rules follow data patterns, but Douyin's red packets showed fluctuations, so there must be a problem.)

(Mathematical tools have profound real-world significance, and mathematics is the only thing capable of describing all things in the world.)

"Yang Lao, are you trying to use these pictures to clear up the Yang family's covert manipulation?"

"This lacks credibility; the data and the rules are both in your hands."

"What tricks did you pull, and how would anyone else know?"

Yang Qing heard Tang Wenlong start speaking, so he withdrew the picture.

"Young man, you put in so much effort—don't you see the rule behind it?"

"Those algorithms reduce the probability of extremely lucky people grabbing big red packets."

"It wasn't adjusted much—just set to 30% of his own chance of getting a big red packet; thus some people still have a much higher probability than ordinary people."

"Although luck sounds unscientific, it does indeed exist."

"If we let these people with heaven-defying luck continue, they will become the biggest winners of this event."

"Getting one big red packet would be enough to resolve the current predicament."

"This isn't a place to get rich; is it a problem that people who receive tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions keep getting more red packets?"

"You might say I'm speaking nicely, but who knows what I'm secretly doing?"

"Faced with doubt, the best answer to this question is not self-proof, but making the questioner prove it."

"Now it's your turn to perform."

"Publish what you have obtained."

"We have a clear conscience; we welcome everyone's supervision."

This now puts Tang Wenlong in trouble.

"You're playing like this?"

"This time I might really fail."

"Moreover, he faces another problem: attacking someone else's server is illegal."

"To produce evidence, he would have to implicate himself."

So he remained silent.

Yang Qing seemed to understand his dilemma.

"Isn't the means of obtaining it unclean?"

"Like this, I will exempt you from prosecution this time."

"You will bear no legal liability."

"However, this is only once; it will not set a precedent."

"Running a company, it's impossible to tolerate anyone affecting company operations through illegal means."

"Remember, if there is a next time, you'll only be able to step into a sewing machine."

Tang Wenlong breathed a sigh of relief, yet also felt a lingering fear.

"The data in my hands is only a portion of the red packet distribution data."

"I cannot obtain the specific rules and algorithms."

"Thank you, Yang Lao, for your magnanimity."

"But Yang Lao, even so, I am still unwilling to accept it."

"Still the same thing: this completely cannot rule out the possibility of your behind-the-scenes manipulation."

Yang Qing ignored him and instead spoke to himself.

"When the person raising the question cannot produce sufficient evidence to prove your crime,"

"normally at this point it's over, and the presumption of innocence applies."

"But we are not ordinary people."

"At this point, introducing a third party with sufficient authority and justice can fully prove our innocence."

"Douyin will hand over past data to the Justice Department, the Commerce Department, and the Court for them to notarize for us."

"Can this dispel your doubts?"

"Surely it can?"

"As for self-proof?"

"I will not self-prove, because self-proof has little persuasive power, and sometimes it's hard to self-prove."

"An elderly lady fell; I went to help her, but she insisted I knocked her down—how can I self-prove?"

"When facing someone who breaks in to injure, you defend yourself and injure him—how do you prove he was an intruder? If he was an intruder, then you are acting in self-defense; if you cannot prove it, it's mutual fighting."

"Sometimes self-proof is a trap."

"Normal people do not imprison themselves or fall into traps."

"This is also said for everyone to hear; honest kids often get tricked this way."

"You say someone has a problem, yet demand they themselves produce evidence—that's very roguish."

"Young man, is this answer acceptable?"

Tang Wenlong was instantly speechless; they were just about to directly scold you.

"Without sufficient evidence, you come here spouting nonsense; not getting punished is already lucky."

He hurriedly apologized.

Yang Lao, sorry, I was impulsive, doing it this way is completely fine.

Sorry, I wasted everyone's time; from now on I won't take up anyone's time, I'm hanging up.

After saying that, they directly hung up the voice call.

After hanging up the voice call, Tang Wenlong was somewhat overly frightened and began taking deep breaths.

Dangerous, too dangerous.

He was blinded by Benefit.

Without solid evidence, he actually went looking for trouble with the Yang Family, such a huge entity.

Does he want to die?

I don't know if Yang Lao's promise counts.

He is also a smart person, knowing he cannot entrust his fate to others.

So he picked up the phone.

Hello, I promised to join the organization to maintain Daxia's network security.

………

Seeing the person leave, Yang Qing also didn't press further.

Instead, he chose to continue calling the next person.

The person on the voice call was still a man.

Is today a men-only session?

Yang Lao, Yang Lao, sorry, I also scolded you just now.

This is bringing up the wrong pot.

Yang Qing said impatiently.

Scolding is scolding, what's more, do I have to talk about my feelings?

Are you sure you want to be ruthless?

The other party also realized their low emotional intelligence.

No no no, Yang Lao, I didn't mean that, I'm just not articulate.

Yang Qing nodded while laughing.

It's fine, I know you just want to apologize sincerely, with no ulterior motive.

The other side.

Thank you, Yang Lao, thank you, I'm really slow in this area, I often can't figure out the situation, I don't know where I went wrong, very sorry.

Yang Qing suddenly felt this guy was kinda cute.

I'll teach you a method.

First step, listen more, speak less.

Second step, whatever others say, you follow how they say it.

Third step, speak only half of what you want to say.

For example, just now, saying sorry was enough, no need to say the whole thing.

If at this point I ask you what you're sorry for, you then explain the matter, saying you scolded me.

This way, although it's still a bit awkward, the effect isn't as strong.

Normally, others wouldn't care either.

The other side.

Thank you, thank you, Yang Lao.

Yang Qing nodded in relief.

Good, you've already learned it.

Now, tell me what topic you want to talk about.

The other side was very happy, didn't expect to gain this, maybe they can fix his major flaw.

Yang Lao, I want to ask you, which is more important, fairness or justice?

If we reflect this image in society, I think it would show that overly favoring ordinary people would make top talent feel wronged.

After all, if a company relies entirely on my support, while others enjoy the same treatment as me, that's unfair, and I would feel upset.
