Zhong Yang then signed the document and took his fingerprints. Then his hands were handcuffed and he was taken into a police car and drove away from the scene.
Facing the camera, Zhong Yang said:
"When I had a certain amount of power in my hands, my parents would prepare a New Year's Eve dish for me every year, which is boiled white tofu with green vegetables. Before the meal, they would give me a message, saying that you are the superior. I have young people, and my work and life should be like this dish, pure and clean. I cook it every year, and the dish goes into my stomach, but I don’t pay attention and don’t remember it in my heart. It’s not engraved in my mind.”
The feature film revealed that Zhong Yang often took great pains to take certain business owners to various places for research on the grounds of attracting investment. As long as they feel it is appropriate, they will immediately assign the project to these business owners to undertake the construction.
On the surface, it seems that Zhong Yang is doing it for the development of the local economy, but behind the scenes, she is having a good time with the boss who came to see her with "money", and is using the project construction to seek personal "development."

The real estate developer introduced by the leader provided help on the project, modified the land transfer conditions, and finally allowed him to successfully win the bid and obtain the land.
Zhong Yang said, "Someone has asked me to do this. For example, Liu Wenxin (who has dealt with another case) asked me to do this. He arranged this type of project, so you have to complete it. , in front of the leader, the leader hopes that you can do things, be able to accomplish things, and avoid getting into trouble. Then you must go through the whole process well."
"I can't face my former colleagues, family members, or anything else. In the face of all the leaders who have cared about and trained me on behalf of the organization, I am really ashamed and ashamed."
Zhong Yang finally confessed, "It's not yours, if you insist on forcing it, you will end up being shattered into pieces, and you will end up being mistaken for someone else. If you go astray, you will regret it in the end."
