Guo Gangtang: Tang Lixia, do you know who I am? Do you know what I have suffered over the years?
Tang Lixia: I'm sorry for causing you trouble...
Guo Gangtang: Is this just a trouble? You are also a woman and you have children of your own.
The reason why Guo Gangtang asked this is because Tang Lixia was arrested on suspicion of abducting children in 1999. She was later released due to insufficient evidence. If she could have confessed the criminal facts of abducting and trafficking Guo Xinzhen at that time, Guo Gangtang would have been able to find her back more than 20 years earlier. The son of...

Guo Gangtang said that during the second trial, Hu Fuji still claimed that only Guo Xinzhen’s abduction case was related to him.
"Hufuji admitted that he had something to do with stealing Guo Xinzhen, and the four children had nothing to do with him. Tang Lixia has been saying that Hufuji instigated her to do this, and threatened her physically, including that Hufuji had He chopped off one of his little fingers and used various excuses to try to get her to commit crimes. Hu Fuji said that Tang Lixia stole all the children and that only Guo Xinzhen participated in the sale. It's all a matter for Tang Lixia to resolve on her own. During the trial, they were biting each other."
According to the accusations made by the public prosecution, Hufuji had been sentenced to multiple crimes, including theft, extortion, and child trafficking.

During the second trial, he still denied his intention to commit the crime.
Guo Gangtang said: "He said that others framed him. Witnesses, including the buyer, all told about the children he gave him. He also said that they were framed."
Before the second trial, Guo Gangtang was interviewed by the media. They said they had new evidence of child trafficking in Hufuji and would submit it to the court.
Guo Gangtang said: "While listening, I also felt that I can no longer be impulsive this time. I should be more rational. Let's grab some detailed evidence, data, and case facts, and give them severe punishment and punishment through formal channels. Our evidence materials have also been collected. I believe that after a period of investigation of new things, we will be able to give us a fair and just statement. It will also be able to severely punish these two demons in the world, and it will also allow us to find The parents of the children can calm down a little from the bottom of their hearts. "
After a three-and-a-half-hour hearing, the second-instance collegial panel announced the scheduled sentencing. As he walked out of the court, Guo Gangtang was once again surrounded by the media and many parents looking for their children. He once again called on more people to help those parents who were still looking for their children.
Guo Gangtang said: "Don't steal children for anything, and don't illegally buy or sell children with a sense of luck. Speaking from my own heart, for those of us parents who haven't found our children yet, what I want to say is that everyone should take care of themselves first. , keep going and take good care of your family. The era when Lao Guo rode a motorcycle has passed. Now there are more shortcut channels of communication, such as the 80,000 letters and mails I sent in the past few years when I was looking for children. It took me more than two months to go out. Now a video may be seen by hundreds of thousands of people in one day, and more channels have emerged, so I hope that we brothers and sisters can persist a little longer.”
