Chapter 1626 - The practical usage of spiritual tactics!

Upstairs.

Wu Zeqing's office.

"Mommy, Sisi is hungry."

"You two haven't eaten either?"

"Mhm."

"Let's quickly eat lunch then."

"Daddy, I don't want to eat these carrots."

"That won't do. Carrots are full of nutrition. Eat them."

"OK."

"Haha, how is Daddy's cooking?"

"Daddy's cooking is delicious."

"Old Wu, how does it taste?"

"Mmm, it's quite delicious, hur hur."

Usually, it was either Wu Zeqing or Zhang Ye who would work overtime at the office. That left the family of three with very few opportunities to eat together, so Zhang Ye did not like to be disturbed whenever they could eat together. However, after only taking a few bites, someone knocked on the door.

Wu Zeqing called out while eating, "Come in."

Secretary Ci entered. "Minister Wu, the people from the Supreme Court are here."

Four people walked through the door.

Wu Zeqing smiled. "Old Qian, you're this early?"

Old Qian was startled. "Oh, you're having lunch?"

"Yes, my husband brought me lunch," Wu Zeqing said with a smile.

Old Qian looked at Zhang Ye and Sisi with a smile. "Teacher Zhang, you're around too? I suppose we arrived at the wrong time. Sorry to disturb your lunch."

Wu Zeqing stood up and tidied up a little. "It's fine. Come, let's head to the conference room to speak."

But Zhang Ye wasn't having any of that. He frowned and said, "But we just started eating."

Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "I'll eat after I'm done here."

Zhang Ye said, "You haven't eaten all day. Can you bear it if you get gastric reflux afterwards?"

Sisi also tugged at her mother's sleeve. "Mommy, eat. Mommy, eat."

The people from the Supreme Court hurriedly said:

"That's right, that's right."

"Teacher Zhang is right. Eating is more important."

In the end, it was still the leader of the group, Old Qian, who said with a smile, "Why don't we just have the meeting here. We can discuss the matter while you eat."

Zhang Ye stood up and said, "Alright, you all go ahead. I'll head outside to eat."

"There's no need." Old Qian said happily, "Teacher Zhang, you're not an outsider. You're also one of us legal professionals, after all."

When the other Supreme Court people heard that, they realized it as well. Zhang Ye was a legend among legal professionals. In the history of the judicial examination, he was the only person to have gotten a perfect score on it! Others might not know about the difficulty of the judicial examination because they had never taken it before. But these people here were different. They had all gone through the judicial examination before, so of course they knew what that meant. As such, they were all in awe of Zhang Ye's perfect score achievement.

The meeting began.

As Old Wu discussed some matters with them, Zhang Ye and Sisi stayed out of the way and ate their lunch.

Listening to their conversation, Zhang Ye formed an idea of what they were talking about. The Supreme Court's people had come over the matter of some "deadbeats." What was a deadbeat? To put it simply, they were people who legally owed money. However, these people would avoid paying their debts even though they had the money to do so. This time, there were orders given from above to crack down on such behavior. As such, the Supreme Court's people came knocking on the Central Publicity Department's door in hopes of finding some practical ways to deal with this dishonest behavior and make them pay up, rather than pursuing them through the usual legal court notices.

Five minutes.

Ten minutes.

They couldn't settle on a solution even after discussing for a long time.

Wu Zeqing said, "What I can do on our side is to contact the newspapers, media outlets, and even Central TV and People's Daily to help publish a debtors list."

Old Qian sighed. "We've also tried those ways before, but the results weren't that great. The main issue is that not enough publicity is generated this way. If we were to publish the debtors' personal information in greater detail, their privacy will be infringed, and that's not a line we're allowed to cross. Therefore, these are the difficulties that we face, and they're not easy to deal with."

Wu Zeqing asked, "How many people are there on the list?"

Next to them, a female cadre of the Supreme Court said, "The list of such debtors has a total of 175 names."

Wu Zeqing acknowledged her. "That's quite a lot of them."

Something came over Old Qian as he looked at Zhang Ye, who happened to be scooping up some food for his child. He blinked and said, "Teacher Zhang, do you have any suggestions?"

Zhang Ye was taken aback. "Ah?"

The four people of the Supreme Court asked:

"Yeah, why don't you suggest some ideas?"

"This matter is too difficult to deal with."

"You are resourceful with lots of ideas and tactics."

When they heard the word "tactics," the people in the room couldn't help laughing.

Zhang Ye said in amusement, "My tactics are basically just me blowing hot air."

Old Qian slapped his thigh. "Even so, we're open to hearing them!"

Zhang Ye looked at his wife. "I'm only a family member here. Is it really appropriate for me to take part in this discussion?"

"You're not any ordinary family member." Old Qian paused for a moment before saying, "You're also a legal professional. When it comes to defeating these deadbeats, it's better to come together and brainstorm."

Zhang Ye nodded. "Alright, I'll say a few words then. This situation that you mentioned is quite tricky, but at the same time, it is very simple as well." He remembered the many effective ways that the people in his previous world had implemented to deal with such deadbeats. "Aren't they just refusing to pay up? Then you don't have to be courteous with them. If they wanna act shamelessly? Then you gotta be even more shameless than them. If they wanna be thick-skinned? Then you gotta be even more thick-skinned than them!"

The Supreme Court's people said, "Ah?"

Compete on shamelessness?

Compete on being thick-skinned?

W-What kind of underhanded strategy is that?

Zhang Ye said, "How about this? You guys contact the relevant mobile telecommunications companies and get them to attach a customized incoming ringtone to the cell phone numbers of those deadbeats. Whenever someone calls them, a recorded message from the Supreme Court will play before the call connects. It can go like: 'The person you are calling has been identified as a debtor by the Supreme People's Court. Kindly urge the individual to fulfill their obligations under the legal documents as soon as possible,' or something similar to that. This will let them know that the person they're calling is a deadbeat."

The roomful of people were amazed!

Damn!

This is indeed such a fucking spiritual tactic!

This tactic is too wicked!

Old Qian wiped at his sweat and said, "W-Will this work?"

Wu Zeqing laughed. "I think that it makes some sense to do it this way."

"Th-Then let's give it a try?" Old Qian said.

Zhang Ye lowered his head and continued eating. "Go on, it definitely won't be a problem."

…

Submission to the courts.

Getting the approval.

On the very same afternoon, the document was issued.

…

At a construction company.

Sun He was in his office smoking a cigar and waiting for a very important call.

His wife smiled and said, "Has the project been confirmed?"

Sun He laughed and said, "The discussions are complete, and we'll be signing the contract very soon."

His wife said excitedly, "This is a project worth tens of millions of yuan. There's a lot of money to be earned from it."

Ring, ring, ring.

Sun He's cell phone rang.

Sun He took a deep breath. "Haha, here it comes!"

But when he answered the phone, he was dumbfounded.

The CEO on the other end of the line said angrily: "Old Sun, what's with you?"

Sun He said in surprise: "Boss Zhang? What's the matter?"

The CEO said: "So you're actually a deadbeat? Let's forget about the project. I'll go and speak to another company and work with them instead. You—hai, you better act appropriately."

Sun He was panicking. "Boss Zhang! Don't! Boss Zhang!"

His wife panicked. "What happened? How does Boss Zhang know?"

After a while, they finally understood what was going on!

When Sun He picked up the office telephone to call himself on his cell phone and heard the pre-recorded message from the court, his face turned green with anger!

An angry roar rang out from within the office!

"Fuck your sister!"

"Whose rotten idea was this!"

…

Inside a luxury sedan.

Two people were in the middle of a conversation.

"Have you changed the registered owner of the car yet?"

"Yes, it's under my younger brother's name now."

"Hur hur, that's good. Those people from the courts are too annoying."

"Yeah, they keep coming in person to look for me. Don't they know that they're really irritating?"

At this moment, a call from his parents' house arrived.

The man hurriedly answered and said respectfully: "Mom."

On the other end of the line, his mother did not say anything for a long time.

The man wondered: "Mom, what is it?"

His mother said coldly: "Little Fu, do you owe people money?"

The man said dumbfoundedly: "No, Mom, who told you something like that?"

His mother said: "Tell me the truth!"

The man said: "I really don't!"

His mother lamented: "Little Fu, why have you become like this! Pay off whatever you owe immediately. Otherwise, don't ever come back to our home!"

The man said in panic: "Mom! Mom?"

The line went dead.

Not long after, his elder sister also called.

The man hurriedly asked: "Big Sis, what's with Mom? Did someone say something to her?"

His elder sister said angrily: "Would anyone need to tell our Mom anything? Call yourself on your cell phone and listen to it! You! You have totally disgraced our family!"

The man quickly used his chauffeur's cell phone to call himself.

"—The person you are calling has been identified as a debtor by the Supreme People's Court. Kindly urge the individual to fulfill their obligations under the legal documents as soon as possible!"

The man's eyes darkened and he nearly fainted!

"Fuck your grandpa!"

"Who did this!"

"You're too fucking wicked!"

…

At a villa.

A couple was having a conversation.

"Little Juan, I really like you a lot, so marry me."

"My parents still have some hesitations, but they're starting to relent a little."

"Don't worry, I'll go visit your family today and convince your parents."

"Alright. Oh yes, my cell phone has died. My mom to call your phone later. Let's select a restaurant to eat at. She likes spicy food the most, and my dad loves drinking. Don't forget that!"

"Sure, no problem."

Ring, ring, ring.

A call arrived.

The youth hurriedly answered it with a sweet and polite voice. "Hello, Auntie."

The woman on the other end said coldly: "Get my daughter on the phone!"

The young man was startled. He hadn't expected the other party's attitude to change so suddenly. He handed the phone to the girl.

He heard her mother railing at her: "Are you stupid or what? Don't you know that he owes money?"

The girl was stunned. "Owes money? Impossible! His family is pretty well-to-do!"

Her mother said: "There's a court notice linked to his phone! My foolish daughter! What kind of man did you find! You've been lied to by him all this while! Leave him immediately! Our family may be poor and average, but you must not find someone like that! And come home right now!"

The girl left.

Before leaving, she even gave the young man a slap across his face.

The young man was completely stunned, not knowing what had happened. When he used the villa's landline to call his cell phone, he finally learned what had happened!

"Holy fuck!"

"Holy fuck!"

"Holy fuck!"

"Who is it!"

"Who the hell is so wicked to do something like this!"

…

On this day.

Countless deadbeats around the country were in a state of confusion!

They had thought that they were the most shameless people in the world!

But never could they have imagined that there was someone who was even more shameless than them!

The Supreme Court!

We were wrong about you!

Since when did you fucking become like this!
