Dagong Wenhui Media Group stated that the reporter tried to drive away when his personal safety was threatened, but Xu Zhifeng took the lead to stop it and falsely claimed that he was hit, encouraging his colleagues to continue the siege and paralyzing the traffic for a long time. After the reporter called the police for help, when he followed the police's guidance to the police station for investigation, Xu Zhifeng still made unreasonable disturbances, intercepted the interview vehicle, and acted extremely brutally.
The statement alleges that Xu Zhifeng blatantly violated government laws, knowingly committed the crime, did not wear a mask, and said that as a public figure, he was a guilty conscience, used the so-called stalking as an excuse to create troubles, besie and abuse journalists, and gather unknown persons to intimidate and destroy journalists. When interviewing vehicles, the wicked must first file a complaint, which severely tramples on the freedom of the press and violates the journalists' human rights and legitimate interview rights. The group requires the police to deal with it seriously in accordance with the law, and reserves all rights for legal investigation.
