Wang Wenge's impulsiveness caused the situation at Dafeng Factory to spiral out of control in an instant.

The fire and thick smoke at the scene injured many workers.

Some people even fainted on the spot due to inhaling large amounts of thick smoke.

Cries, screams, arguments, and frantic footsteps mingled together.

The onlookers scattered in panic.

At this time, the factory workers were still standing together at the front.

This left the entire demolition team and security personnel in a dilemma, plunging the entire entrance of Dafeng Factory into complete chaos.

Fortunately, the 25 tons of highly dangerous gasoline had already been completely removed.

The small amount of gasoline that Wang Wenge and his men hid was not enough to cause greater casualties.

The fire was confined to the area enclosed by sand around the entrance and did not spread further.

Contrary to expectations, no one lost their life or several people were seriously injured in the incident.

For Zhou Chuyi, this was already the best possible outcome.

The Shanshui Group had consulted with Li Dakang, the secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee, before the forced demolition of Dafeng Factory.

Li Dakang was also paying close attention to the demolition progress of Dafeng Factory.

When a fire broke out at the scene and chaos erupted, he immediately instructed Zhao Donglai to arrange for the Jingzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau's police force to be deployed to the scene.

A large number of riot police and officers on duty quickly arrived at the scene, set up a cordon, separated the conflicting crowds, dispersed onlookers, and brought order to the scene.

At the same time, firefighters entered the scene, but unfortunately, they were blocked by the fortifications in front of the factory.

The fire brigade's firefighting equipment couldn't even reach the entrance of Dafeng Factory.

These police officers and firefighters could only walk to the entrance of the Dafeng factory.

However, they were stopped by a group of security guards from the factory when they reached a short distance from the entrance.

They said they were going to put out the fire and arrest those impersonating police officers who were carrying out demolitions.

Unfortunately, the people from Dafeng Factory didn't believe what they said at all.

During the stalemate, a police officer impulsively stated that Wang Wenge's arson was illegal.

They indicated that they would take control of Wang Wenge and other members of the factory protection team, who were key figures in the arson, instigation, and conflict.

This further fueled the anger of the workers at the wind turbine factory.

Because the police wanted to arrest Wang Wenge and his group, a large number of the Dafeng Factory security team and workers surrounded the police.

The confrontation between the two sides was intense, with a large number of employees from the Dafeng factory shouting that people should not be arrested.

Some members of the factory security team shouted that they weren't there to arrest the fake police officers, but to control the security team so they could carry out a forced demolition.

In the end, the police officer in charge could only say that they would not go in, and only hoped to get the injured person out and take him to the hospital.

They didn't want anyone to get hurt, so they finally let two policemen in.

Several injured factory workers were also taken out and given basic first aid by medical personnel who arrived at the scene.

The two people who were more seriously injured have been taken away by ambulance.

The injured have been evacuated, but the situation still risks spiraling further out of control.

Li Dakang and Zhao Donglai had arrived at the scene. Looking at the noisy crowd and the thick smoke rising into the sky, Li Dakang frowned deeply.

He knew that forced demolition might trigger conflict, but he didn't expect things to change so quickly.

The fire broke out and people were injured before the demolition team even entered the factory area.

He was torn about whether to continue the forced demolition of Dafeng Factory.

Seeing the agitated workers of the Dafeng Factory surrounding a group of police officers, he was at a loss for what to do.

Li Dakang also learned that the fire at the Dafeng Factory was widely reported online.

The Dafeng factory has likely already garnered a lot of attention.

"Professor Gao, I am Hou Liangping, and I didn't mean to bother you."

"But now, in the era of social media, any breaking news can spread to the whole world in just a few minutes."

"Right now, in Jingzhou, videos and pictures of the demolition site are constantly circulating online."

Just as Gao Yuliang, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and secretary of the political and legal affairs committee of Handong, was about to take a break, he received a call from his student Hou Liangping.

"Liangping, thank you for your timely report. You're right. In the era of social media, traditional methods are no longer sufficient."

"Alright, I'm hanging up now."

Upon hearing the news he received from Hou Liangping, Gao Yuliang sensed that something was amiss.

Why didn't Qi Tongwei report the mass incident that happened at Dafeng Factory?

He hadn't even received the news, yet Hou Liangping, who was far away in Yanjing, already knew?

After hanging up with Hou Liangping, he called Qi Tongwei directly.

"Tongwei, another mass incident has occurred, hasn't it?"

When Qi Tongwei received the call from his teacher and heard the question, he was completely stunned.

How come he, the head of the Public Security Bureau, didn't know about the mass incident that happened in Handong?

"I didn't receive any notification. Which city?" Qi Tongwei asked Gao Yuliang.

"It's Jingzhou, it's now!!"

"Guangmingfeng Demolition Area, Dafeng Factory!"

Gao Yuliang was furious with Qi Tongwei. How could he possibly be the director of the provincial public security department?

A mass incident occurred in Jingzhou, the capital city of Handong Province, and he, the director of the provincial public security department, was completely unaware of it and even asked him about it?

Everyone knows something has happened, yet he, the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission and the director of the Public Security Bureau, was completely unaware of it and had to be told by Hou Liangping, who was far away in Yanjing.

"Tongwei, it seems that the area beneath Bright Peak is not so bright after all."

"What's wrong with Li Dakang?"

Gao Yuliang probably knew about Qi Tongwei's situation in the public security system, so he suppressed his anger and pointed at Li Dakang.

"Secretary Yuliang, please don't worry, I'll go see Secretary Dakang right now."

Qi Tongwei seemed to be on a different wavelength from Gao Yuliang; he heard about the mass incident that had occurred at the Guangmingfeng Dafeng Factory.

I didn't think about anything else; my first thought was whether this matter had anything to do with the Shanshui Group and Gao Xiaoqin.

Another thought was what Li Dakang's attitude would be if a mass incident occurred.

"Why are you still looking for him? Is it even too late?"

"What does your position as the head of the Public Security Bureau do?"

"I'm telling you, don't miss the opportunity, dispatch the police immediately."

"Remember, there must be absolutely no bloodshed, and no one must die."

"This must never happen!"

Gao Yuliang was unaware of Qi Tongwei's thoughts; he was preoccupied with the current situation in Handong.

The arrival of Sha Ruijin caused a tense atmosphere in the officialdom of Handong.

Qi Tongwei is at a crucial moment in his promotion to vice-provincial level, and he needs to do his job well at this time.

We can't let this give others an excuse to use against us.

"I understand, Secretary Yuliang." Qi Tongwei outwardly obeyed his teacher Gao Yuliang's instructions.

But after hanging up the phone, unlike Gao Yuliang who was somewhat anxious, he was different.

He did not immediately change into his police uniform and go to the provincial department, nor did he notify his subordinates to dispatch officers.

Instead, he calmly sat on the sofa, closed his eyes, and thought.

He racked his brains, wondering if taking the police to the demolition site would offend Li Dakang, a member of the Provincial Party Committee.

When he received Gao Yuliang's call, Liang Lu was sitting next to him.

She watched as Qi Tongwei hung up the phone and remained sitting there motionless, somewhat puzzled: "Tongwei, what are you daydreaming about?"

"Secretary Yuliang is so anxious, why aren't you worried?"

"I'll go get your police uniform."

Liang Lu had no idea what Qi Tongwei was thinking. A mass incident had occurred in Jingzhou, yet he, the director of the Public Security Bureau, wasn't worried at all?

"Please be quiet, let me think about it."

Qi Tongwei stopped Liang Lu from getting him his police uniform and instead began to analyze the situation for her in a serious manner.
