Everyone watched as Chen Jiutian was led away, barely able to walk, requiring the support of two people.
The once-powerful regional head now looked, unmistakably, like a dead dog!
His face of deathly pallor made an indelibly strong impression.
A provincial industry head and a regional chief met such an end, eliciting endless sighs.
Blinded by greed, he was neither the first, nor would he be the last.
Next, Chen Jiutian and others led by Chen Jiuzheng would be transferred to the judicial authorities, where legal sanctions awaited them.
Xiahou Qi surveyed the crowd.
The reason for convening this meeting with such fanfare, apart from dealing with Chen Jiutian, was also to warn those present.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Xiahou Qi said solemnly.
The crowd's attention was drawn; they sat up straight, watching intently.
