After the manufacturer surnamed Lin won the bid, he sent 650,000 yuan to thank Professor Wang for his help. When the prosecutor was reported to intervene in the investigation in September this year, Wang and Lin denied committing any crime when they arrived at the case and were detained by the prosecutor. However, the court ruled that Professor Wang should post a bail of 200,000 yuan and the manufacturer surnamed Lin should post a bail of 1.5 million yuan.
After Professor Wang walked out of the gate of the District Prosecutor's Office, he was unprepared and ran to another manufacturer named Liu to ask for more than 1.44 million yuan of "post-exchange money" that he had used to escort the bid in the same way. The entire process was searched for evidence by the investigators. On the 13th, the prosecutor launched a second wave of search operations and summoned Professor Wang and the manufacturer to the case. After the prosecutor resumed the hearing, they were allowed to detain the two people in court on the evening of the 14th. The whole case is still under investigation.
