Chapter 756: Chapter 272: Qin Mu’s Exclusive Interview, Panic Sparked by a Phone Call!

"Interviewing me?" Zhang Qingyuan looked up, startled.

"Yes, we’re primarily interested in... well, in getting some exclusive information about the case that shocked the nation. We just have a few simple questions," the reporter explained quickly, nodding.

Behind him were seven or eight other reporters, all carrying heavy camera gear.

Seeing this, they immediately surged forward, showering Zhang Qingyuan with flattery.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang! We heard you single-handedly took on all those internet trolls. You’ve truly brought honor to our Jin City!"

"Mr. Zhang, you’re a celebrity in Jin City now! That video of you sleeping in the courtroom has gone viral. Hardly anyone in Jin City doesn’t know who you are."

"We mainly want to... publicize your achievements."

"It will only take a few minutes of your time."

Microphones were thrust towards him one after another. They were from various media outlets, not the same one. Strictly speaking, they were competitors.

Upon seeing Zhang Qingyuan, they laid the flattery on thick.

Zhang Qingyuan was quite pleased to hear this. A look of surprise crossed his face as he asked, somewhat sheepishly, "I... I’m already that famous in Jin City?"

This time, although Qin Mu had orchestrated the entire lawsuit, he himself had also contributed significantly.

If he hadn’t shuttled between eight different courts, this case, involving the trial of as many as 15,000 people, couldn’t possibly have been concluded in just a few days!

It could be said that he deserved at least half the credit!

"Alright, you can interview me." Then, looking at the reporters, he nodded, agreeing to the interview.

The reporters were overjoyed. They quickly took out their notepads and began asking their prepared questions.

Zhang Qingyuan sat straight in his chair. He was just about to answer when he realized all their questions were about Qin Mu.

For instance, they asked what role Qin Mu played in the case, where Qin Mu got the funds to sue so many people, and what Qin Mu’s usual personality and character were like.

He was left quite speechless. So, their interest in interviewing him was just a pretense; they really wanted to interview Qin Mu.

Unfortunately, Qin Mu had the day off and hadn’t come to the nursing home.

However, facing the reporters’ questions, he thought for a moment and gave a responsible answer, "Qin Mu? Ah, he’s a very good person—kind and well-intentioned. No one who has interacted with him has anything bad to say. You can ask anyone in our nursing home; they’ll all tell you the same."

Before he could finish, the reporters in front of him swallowed hard. Their faces practically screamed, Really? I don’t believe it!

They had come primarily to interview Qin Mu. Everyone knew he was the driving force behind this case.

And Qin Mu’s vengeful nature... had somehow transformed into ’kindness and goodwill’ in Zhang Qingyuan’s description, who even claimed no one spoke ill of him.

At this thought, the reporters quickly shifted their gaze towards Li Weiguo and the other elderly residents, hoping to find a more candid answer.

"Xiao Qin? He’s a genuinely good person. Just the other day, I encountered a scammer selling bogus health products, and it was Xiao Qin who told me how to handle it. He’s truly beyond reproach."

"I’ve never heard anyone say a bad word about Xiao Qin. When it comes to character, he’s the one I admire most."

"Brother Qin is like my own brother. I’ve only been at the nursing home for two months, and every month he’s recognized as an outstanding employee. He has top performance, proficient work skills, and gets along splendidly with the elderly residents here."

"Brother Qin is a really great guy. His only flaw... is that he’s still single and doesn’t have a girlfriend."

For a moment, the interview unexpectedly turned into an extensive praise session for Qin Mu.

None of the staff members had any complaints about Qin Mu.

Whenever Qin Mu was mentioned, they all either smiled or showed deep respect.

After finishing this round of interviews, the reporters exchanged glances. They all felt that something wasn’t quite right.

After interviewing the elderly residents and staff at the nursing home for half an hour, they still hadn’t obtained any particularly sensational material.

In the descriptions provided by everyone at the nursing home, Qin Mu was portrayed as an upright and exemplary figure, practically a paragon of virtue.

But what they wanted was the conflict and sensationalism that made news. A report based purely on this would be rather bland.

Helpless, they concluded their interviews with the elderly residents and decided to approach two other groups of people.

These groups, too, were very familiar with Qin Mu and had interacted with him frequently.

「Jin City.」

「Legal Pioneer Law Firm.」

Inside a particular office.

Zhang Wei was examining the recent financial statements of their law firm, his face alight with joy and excitement.

In the past two weeks, their law firm had taken on 3,000 cases, earning a staggering thirty million in legal fees!

The business generated in just half a month surpassed their firm’s total volume for the previous six months!

This further solidified his determination to follow Qin Mu.

Only by keeping pace with Qin Mu could they hope to grow and solidify their position in the legal field.

Their law firm was now the veritable number one law firm in Jin City.

If they continued on this path, they could become a nationally renowned major law firm in the future!

But just as he was indulging in these bright prospects, a group of reporters arrived at their law firm. They said they wanted to interview them about the recent case involving suing a vast number of internet users.

Zhang Wei frowned slightly. However, considering it would help promote their law firm, he agreed.

And the very first question the reporters asked was related to Qin Mu.

"Lawyer Zhang, we’re working on a feature about Qin Mu. We’d like to ask you some questions about him, as we’ve heard you’re quite familiar with him..."
